    John Carmack leaves ID Software

    If Carmack has any genius left to give I'd rather he spend it on the Rift than making another Id game. If he wants to relax and be semi-retired then he's certainly earned it.

    That video was hilarious though. I don't know any girls who aren't ashamed of what they were from ~13-16.

    Joeffrey isn't as big of a deal because you know he's a dead man walking. But Robb and Tywin weren't.

    Best way to examine the thermal performance of your system is to look at the temperature of the components you're trying to keep cool. Everything else is secondary. Either way thanks for the updates column, keep them coming.

    The Elder Scrolls Online

    Doing it via map design works ok but it breaks down as soon as the player can get better rewards from just rolling up in a ball and traversing the environment. In some ways there's this weird disconnect between: 1. What enables a player to get rewards the fastest. 2. What enables a large...

    Solution to zergs: AE + not having a cap or distribution on hitting people with AE. Being next to a lot of people in a fight should make you feel uneasy, not safe.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    It's funny how the spoiler police validate spoilers like that. I'm proud that we got through the last season of GoT without anyone spoiling the red wedding but I'm not looking forward to ensure avoidance of the spoilers in the next season.

    1. Do you think there is such a thing as a high information gamer? 2. Do you think there is a preference among such a group between xbox one and PS4? 3. Are you assuming that high information gamers choosing one console over another makes all gamers who choose that console high information gamers?

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    I wasn't making a statement on you. I was saying that on average high information gamers are choosing PS4. That's factual and doesn't imply that all high information gamers will buy a Ps4 or that anyone who doesn't buy a PS4 or buys an xbone is a low information gamer.

    Yeah definitely try the step by step instructions for installation for any big mod on a clean installation. When setting shit up I even keep a vanilla/patched installation copied in a different place so I can quickly scrap my installation and put the clean one in.

    We've all kinda known that high information gamers will gravitate to PS4 so that's no surprise. The real story will be told post Christmas I think when the low information shoppers will have their say.

    immediate crashes on startup are almost always because of an esp trying to load resources that aren't there (You'd think they'd have a more graceful handling of this considering it's been an issue in bethesda games for a decade). There might be some logging in FONV depending on what your...

    come home to play some AC4 and uplay wants to download the whole damn thing again after working fine yesterday. I say fine I can go play a game not wrapped up in a bunch of DRM bullshit and start downloading the 30GB or whatever. Then after 1 minute of downloading at 3MB/s it drops to 8KB/s. I...

    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag

    Ah that's too bad I was hoping the same thing. GTA is cool because you're supposed to be eventually put into an impossible situation with the tanks/police where they will wear you down. AC games are so easy I kind of look for a real challenge in them.

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    Accuracy in FPS games is all about prediction of where the target will be and making a single movement of your reticle to that target. Like if you catch a ball (irl) you don't move your hands to follow the balls position, you subconsciously predict where it will land and move your hands...

    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag

    Yeah the stealth aspect of this game is completely tuned to be easier. Every non-marksman soldier is basically blind and deaf. You can have a gun fight with a soldier and 15 meters away will be a group of soldiers in a circle jerk. It is pretty fun destroying a platoon of enemies in a plantation...

    Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag

    What is everyone's stat for naval battles and combat fights? I'm pretty early on in the game but I've found that the following works well: 1. Open with 2-3 chain shots (with mortar between if I want to pop consumables) 2. Ram them 3. Navigate to their back side if possible and just hang...

    Seems like the author injecting his own thoughts, no? The public overestimates production management's desire to slightly understock systems to generate hype and vastly understimates how much effort they put in trying to pump out as many consoles as possible in a limited timeframe while not...

    The Big Bad Console Thread - Sway your Station with an Xboner !

    To me the big question for the Xbone's integration as a media platform is a user's ability to use the kinect as a way to control the system. That's the big advantage it has over someone's smart tv/cable box. I haven't seen any demos that would make me think, "Yeah I'd rather use that than a...

    Thanks for posting a link to that, hodj. Nobody is mad at you for it. I'm not attacking you for it, I'm just apprehensive about the mod. Here's the reason I'm apprehensive about it: Every modification you make to your game has the risk of increasing instability. Some mods have low risk...
