    Avengers: Age of Ultron

    TBH I don't care much and think it's just a cool scene, but unless Cap was several tons he wouldn't have the mass necessary to use his own inertia to propel a bike with that mass with that momentum. If he was very strong the best he would do would be to smash the bike into his own head very...

    Avengers: Age of Ultron

    Should Captain be able to ally-oop a bike like that? It doesn't seem commensurate with his other feats... I feel like Marvel should have a board of super-nerds who get the final say on any feats a character in the Marvel universe does to ensure it's consistent with their power level.

    Oh, I don't care if they monetize that. I also hope they monetize being able to leave your campaign early. Fight me or pay the toll mother fucker. And can you imagine the drama from guilds imploding where all the pussies in the guild bow out and force the real men to either pay-to-lose or...

    That's true, but I don't think people are compelled by that. In my opinion the value/cost ratio typically gets better the longer you wait. I think in some cases they offer something very valuable in a limited just to set an example, but other than that there's no reason to buy in now. I also...

    Last few days usually. I kind of feel like that 'push' is sort of stunted the more people trust that they'll continue funding options post-kickstarter, which is 100% guaranteed in this case. There's no reason for people to fund it because: 1. It's funded. 2. They aren't missing an...

    Star Citizen Online - The search for more money

    Are they soon implementing a way to permanently earn ships in SC? Seems like the second they do that their money source will evaporate when people either realize they don't actually enjoy playing the game they've spent $1000 on, or realize they love the game and can earn ships ingame instead of...

    They should just borrow ArcheAge's implementation: 1. Raw materials can't be put in player's inventories, they must be carried in large packs that are external to the player. 2. The packs can either be carried singular by a player, causing them to run slower, or carried on various...

    in case imageshack reminds us why imgur exists, that's a picture of a bane from shadowbane. For those who didn't play SB, that is an expensive item that allows an attacking force to remove the property protection on a city. You want to have your permanent homes somewhere safe where you can...

    Tuco's Guide to Meaningful PvP: 1. Put stuff in the game world people want. 2. Enable the ability to fight over control over that stuff. 3. Build your PvP system such that when you lose a fight, you don't have the ability to just respawn and be fighting the same opponent against within a minute.

    I didn't see videos of the demos they used with the vive, but certain demos/games will be less likely to cause motion sickness than others. And even though Rift has been public with their VR efforts since Lucky was posting on mtbs3d, groups like Sony, Valve, Microsoft, Nintendo etc etc have...

    Yes, that's what they committed to. I think with VR content will be king and you'll need some very compelling games to move the product. I don't know what Valve is planning on that front. I don't know if they're going to offer a developer kit months ahead of the release or just release it into...

    What is the typical life cycle of a gaming exploit?

    In GW2 5 days after release there was a cheap vendor item you could pay way for way below its value. A small, small group of people abused it and got some nice rewards. It was fixed the next day. Then the community at large found out about it when people started talking. Much crying ensued...

    This is true, but given 2.7m from VC and the ~1.5m from their kickstarter I think they will be hard pressed to come up with a good implementation of their ideas without an additional source of funding. I don't know that there is an unreached market of people who would feel compelled by what...

    What I liked more than that was the intent for a global economy that affected your demand. Is everyone online right now using huge commercial and high tech cities? Well now it's impossible to be successful building one, but building a agricultural farmhouse would be much easier, or a dirty...

    I'd rather have my enemies quit when I confront them than not be able to confront my enemies. Right now we're in a pseudo war with another respectable guild on our faction and the opportunity for us to fight eachother is so limited it's laughable.

    One of the things I'm struggling with in ArcheAge is that as we move past the 55 game and start planning for the next phase I'm taking a look at all the ways to organize my guild and lead them in a useful and meaningful way. Unfortunately every route I can think of is PvE centric. Kraken runs...

    Yeah I'm not even worried about VR in SC because it's so compelling in ED. By next year I don't think a credible flight sim game will be published without VR. However right now the public dev support for OVR is shitty (I'm sure SC would get special treatment from OVR) and public dev support for...

    I want to be a janitor for your used ship store. Can we get an AMA with Chris Roberts to talk broom physics? If I can't see light reflections of each bristle of my broom using physics based rendering in my bucket then I'm not going to pay $400 for a golden mop.

    Draegan is so dreamy. I feel like the best you can do at this point is break your podcast down to: 1. Reviewing the last week's release of info. Good luck in a month from now when they don't release much info, but for now there's enough to chew on even if it's half-conceived hopium. 2. Set...

    I agree that if you can just built sky-scrapers in the middle of no where like that they missed the mark in terms of difficulty and realism.

    Like you say it's not out. It's very possible the stuff you saw wasn't procedurally generated at all, but is a glimpse of the kind of procedural generation they want to do.
