    I thought of a better metaphor, it's like when a battered girlfriend tries to complain to you about her latest beating.

    No. I'm saying that you can feel free to bitch about fire being hot (And you rightfully should, I've been telling everyone I know how unnecessarily shitty simcity's launch is), but don't be surprised that when you stick your hand in the fire you get burned. And yes, week 1 of major online...

    Hey if you want to deal with getting a refund then go ahead. I just feel like anyone surprised by simcity's release must be new to gaming or really confused.

    Yeah it should be trivial to cheat in this game. Really makes me wonder what the point of those first to 2.5m pop achievement competitions are. I have to imagine it's not a real competition but just a thing-to-do.

    Another good thing I learned is that the client is able to do most of the city simulation stuff. I'm sure most of the city to city interaction is serverside, but that's much less complex and more easily re-created than bus pathing or RCI demand creation, for example. That means that it'll be...

    It just seems like an example of an ambitious developer team trying to create a novel feature in a game and not being able to make it perfect. Personally I'd prefer if they made the traffic simulation more abstract like it is in previous simcity games, but I can appreciate the attempt to do...

    Fake refunds is pretty bad, but I can't imagine getting frustrated enough with the shitty server/game support and then go try to deal with EA support to get a refund, lol. One good thing about buying from Amazon is that they've usually been pretty good about giving out refunds. And part of me...

    It works intermittently. This cloud based shit is working about as well as we expected. Personally it's just a matter of time until you either crash from the game and can't load back into your region or server, or your city becomes corrupted. And this is while using a minimal amount of...

    Did they make the game harder or something? I'm just surprised that people farm silvers. Back when I played 20m golds were my goal.

    Owing money is one thing, but yeah, under typical circumstances if your daughter is getting married you're responsible for either paying for the wedding or admitting you can't for whatever reason.

    Maybe budos or someone can clarify but if you're looking at long-term efficiency I'd go with whatever gives you the highest chance to get black weapons. That assumes you actually want the black weapons. I know when I played the black widow was by far the best infiltrator weapon.

    I enjoyed the fight and I enjoyed that it was an old school slugfest. I'm just saying it makes me question how far we've come from the dark ages of MMA. I think I can dismiss it as a rare occurrence.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I didn't really word my statement well before. I'm saying that yes, they're blowing through tons of money, but they don't have to in order to make a satisfying series. At least, not on the order that other big budget shows/movies do.

    Yes. Because aamima batphoned me and asked me to take down the rl pics he never posted on her down. If you stalk someone and find their dating profile pics and post them here and they complain they'll be taken down.

    March 4: When you get in the game add Faillees (Faille) and jimmyw404 (Tuco) to your origin buddy list and ask us for an invite to the map. It might get full or whatever in which case I'll update the OP or we'll make another one.

    Life of Pi (2012)

    Yeah it could be, but the whole premise of "Oh once you hear this story you'll believe in God" drives that willful fantasy isn't just used as an escape but is used as an entire belief system. The joke with the premise is that you're not going to be convinced in God's existence, you're going to...

    Life of Pi (2012)

    What bothers me about the portrayal of Pi and faith is that I don't know of any truly religious people who think that faith and religion is just fantasy. There's a lot of people who just view it as a part of their culture and just go along with it, but saying it's just fantasy and that you...

    People are cancelling their pre-orders. Honestly the reward of +4 hours compared to doing the vpn shit is too high. It'd be one thing if you were just using the vpn to decrypt your install and you were on your way.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    GoT doesn't even seem like it needs that big of a budget for most of the scenes. It seems like they dumped 50% of their budget into making a big green fiery explosion and a few battles but that's really not why we watch the show.

    This is all fine. And I don't think there's a problem unless you disagere that that belief without evidence is not scientific understanding.
