    you find a meteorite, there's an accident at the lab, whatever

    Shadowrun Returns

    There's a bunch of cheap runners in the Nephilim tab, only 1k each. Might be later. I guess if you're completely out of money that's an issue. I did a bunch of missions with only 1 paid runner and 1 NPC that usually helps you, because I wanted to save money. Guess it's class specific but I could...

    DOTA 2

    Manta is the highest damage item you can build on medusa other than Rapier if the enemy team doesn't have enough aoe to kill the illusions quickly, because splitshot is inherited. It also has decent damage stats for the price and the movespeed speeds up your farming. Linken is the standard...

    DOTA 2

    Medusa's item build seems like the standard build. If the player didn't farm the items fast enough that's an issue but not sure why Medusa would build raw damage when the whole point of the hero is that she has the highest autoattack potential IF she can stand in the middle of people and right...

    Shadowrun Returns

    I've been using traps again, not sure how the mob went through it last time but they do work fine, drop a trap in a chokepoint with multiple tiles and the mob will take fairly high damage from running through it(and the AI doesn't bother going around it seems). Melee is as far as I can tell...

    DOTA 2

    It's been suggested like years ago that they should add a special base recall that takes a long time to cast(like 1minute cast or some shit) so you can get back to base if some assfuck puts in a spot where you're stuck. It used to be common for people to play darkseer or rubick and get people...

    Shadowrun Returns

    On balance, I'm not too sure what's the point of Unarmed. I mean first off it's only viable if you use Chi to get Killer Hands(that's the first point though so you can get that easily but if you get a ton of cyberware the cooldown becomes noticeably longer than the duration so it's kinda messed...

    DOTA 2

    You can disablehelp to prevent that but you kinda need to know before it happens, it definitely sucks. Best solution is asking in all chat for the enemies to kill you by telling them where you are, but in some cases the place cannot be reached easily.

    Shadowrun Returns

    Rerolled a few times at the start of the game, did that opening area with the flashback and the market stuff like 4 times before I settled down on my current char, melee samurai, nothing fancy. That said the upgrades are pretty slow to come so I think a Chi using melee might have just been...

    Shadowrun Returns

    So apparently the game is bugged, I finish the mission in the blackbox area thing, talk to the NPC at the end and it just stops, nothing to click, to progress the dialogue further, nothing happening at all. Tried restarting the level, same shit. Ah nvm went to look for the bug, apparently you...

    DOTA 2

    Naix jungle kinda works in pubs but that's because pubs are usually very passive about ganking the jungle. Naix jungle is mostly about farming while giving someone a solo lane, but he's stronger in lane anyway. You rarely can gank on Naix cause you use most of your mana using Rage and stuff like...

    Well mostly I think it's boring to watch a lot of the time.

    DOTA 2

    How do you change it though, it seems like quite complicated to fix. You have to pick specifically to counter it, can't really counter it once picks are done so last picks brood/furion/AM/whatever to splitpush generally guarantees the strat or at least make it hard to counter. Since you can't go...

    DOTA 2

    My google powers have shown that yes it is possible, but it requires a bit of fucking around with the binds. This explains it simply. You cannot however bind them on the fly like you can in SC2, but at the same time unlike SC2 you only play one map and the enemy always spawns in the same...

    Sucks it's not localized release time, guess I'll have to wait until tomorrow to play.

    DOTA 2

    Yeah that seemed to be the case in the few games some dev guy checked in a thread that was bitching about new MM and he explained it works that way, which is pretty retarded. Mostly it's stacks ruining games, as usual I wanna say cause even before the patch it could be pretty shitty to be with a...

    DOTA 2

    And I didn't say it wasn't messy. I said 90% of the people crying about it cry about it for the wrong reasons. You said plenty of people post about it on dev.dota but a lot of the posts are idiots using shitty numbers to backup their argument. Matchmaking has always been messy, it might be even...

    Suits

    Yeah that was really shitty, I was looking forward to the Litt episodes, I thought eventually Mike and Harvey would reunite because well it's the show's duo and shit but I didn't expect it to last one fucking episode then forget all about that shit. It also makes very little sense for the...

    DOTA 2

    That's stupid, it matches based on the hidden rating, doesn't matter how many games you've played, if you're bad at the game you're bad at the game. The issue lies in the number being shown being bigger even though it's irrelevant and people using it as a measure because whatever. They should...

    DOTA 2

    Because people don't use number of games, but number of wins, which is a terrible value to judge anything. It's like judging player skill based on the number of letters in the name of the player. "What a pleb, he only has 4 letters in his name, I have 12 letters, why am I matched with this...
  21. Pyros

    DOTA 2

    90% of the whining about wins is retards not understanding ELO-like rating. I guess 10% is just the same shit that was going on before the patch, or worse. But a lot of people are just idiots and don't understand shit. "I have 1000wins and 1200losses, obviously I'm a better player than the guy...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    Not really but they confirmed voice overs will be in for P4. Also they've shown high level screenshots(only 3 screens, one of Garuda, one of lvl 49 FATE and forgot what 3rd one is, think trash), it has Scholars in them, so it seems the class should be done and as such playable. I assume we'll...

    EQ Never

    Still probably doesn't matter, unless it's tuned perfectly, people will find ways to exploit the system to make the easiest yet most rewarding dungeon type and farm that non stop. It'll probably involve pathing exploits, spawning only specific mob types that might be weaker to something making...

    EQ Never

    Well I guess that's one way to please both the wow fans and the EQ fans. "Make your own fucking games you ingrate fucks". So you can play the "Molten Core easy epics" map, or instead you can play "True men only, Sebilis, 2x pack size, low drop rate". Obviously the issue will probably come from...

    You mean on the market? Maybe not but you can trade for them via usual ways. Specifically, you can trade keys for cards(and obviously buy keys), using any of the trading sites to find people or reddit or wherever. I don't think treats can be traded.

    What about xp penalty if you're solo that is reduced with the number of people in your group.
  28. Pyros

    EQ Never

    I don't think xp penalty is bad if that class has an inherent bonus to killing shit faster/on its own to compensate. Like if your world is mostly forced grouping, having classes that can solo but have an xp penalty seems like ok design to me. As long as it's a balanced tradeoff I think it'd be...

    DOTA 2

    Everyone can cleave a team more or less as good or better than SKK. Sven/Tiny can do it a lot better. He's not a bad pub hero but he's not great either. Could maybe tweak his int gain/base int/base movespeed or speed up the reincarnation but I don't know. The question in competitive play is why...

    StarCraft 2

    Na'Vi's looking good this year too. Lots of teams are, I think it's going to be a lot better than the previous 2 TIs, there's a bunch of very strong teams and even the less strong teams manage to beat them regularily, there's very few "weak" teams in comparison. On the WCS regionals, are they...

    DOTA 2

    Well it is pretty retarded of them. Also on a related note, Godz says Valve will be streaming TI3 on Youtube as well as Twitch. Not that it makes much of a difference to me since my connection is shit to both in the evening anyway, so I'll most likely be using the ingame client, but it's maybe...

    DOTA 2

    Sven and SKK are fairly basic heroes, they're simple to play yet for the most part pretty good. Skeleton King was buffed decently, he's not competitive material I don't think but he's definitely good, and while Sven has fall out of grace I think he still has huge potential. Stats build is...

    Final Fantasy XIV (Guide in first post)

    I have absolutely no memory of the FFXI crafting, but FFXIV crafting isn't like wow, it's more like EQ2 and Vanguard(recent crafting systems not the original ones). You have a certain amount of points and you either increase quality or progress and you have to deal with complications and use...

    Everquest II

    Beta and stuff. Also it came out like what, 2weeks before? But yeah EQ2 wasn't a wow clone at release, it's only after they got pounded into the ground by wow's numbers that they started copying aspects of wow.

    StarCraft 2

    Well the incontrol post on reddit was spot on. Copy pasting: It's just a very stupid decision overall, regardless of the goals. And it certainly won't affect dota2 numbers too much, in fact what is likely to affect dota2 numbers a lot more is the fact it's hosted in the US, which leads to fairly...

    Steam Deals and Digital Sales

    There's actually a thread about the game on this forum, and mostly positive stuff in it. I think it was a pretty good game even though it has several flaws, but for the low price it was well worth it.

    DOTA 2

    Yeah but with inventory and gold being very limited as generally the only guy who buys either, I'll buy sentries most of the time, I find them more useful overall due to dewarding. Inventory is especially a big issue, otherwise I'd carry both and use based on the case. Even for ganking though...
  39. Pyros

    DOTA 2

    Not a big fan of dusts in general, I almost always buy sentries instead cause they double as dewarding and you can drop them in anticipation of an invis hero running into your team, which is important for pushes, plus they last a while in a lane so it makes it hard for an invis hero to farm it...

    DOTA 2

    Apparently they kicked ComeWithMe out of the team so I wouldn't be surprised if Kaipi dies fairly soonish, unless they had a replacement lined up already. On stealth heroes and new players yeah it's commonly known that stealth heroes, on top of being favorites in lower tiers, are also...
