So with the new Steam changes, is it possible to tell Steam to never recommend a specific tag?
 
@JasonBerkan That sounds like an excellent Arqade question.
 
@Frank Meh. I hear the people there are meabies.
3
 
@JasonBerkan Not meab. Just strict.
 
FAE
@KevinvanderVelden Were you still going to go to Indigo at all?
 
@JasonBerkan The Bridge is certainly full of meabies.
 
9:04 PM
@FAE I was just asking Jochem in minecraft =p
 
For some reason, I feel like getting a meatball sub for dinner.
Someone needs to talk me out of this.
 
@Powerlord Meatball subs are gross.
Better to just have straight meatballs.
 
@Frank straight meatballs would be meat noodles
 
@Chippies straight meatballs as in not in a sub.
 
@Frank my point still stands! Also, meatballs in a sub sounds weird and gross
 
9:16 PM
@Chippies That made me lol when I read it, despite knowing what @Frank actually meant.
 
@Chippies Subway. They have a meatball sub. Not bad, but meatballs + bread = too much.
 
@Frank I was thinking about stopping at Subway, then thought about stopping at Blimpies instead.
 
@Powerlord Quiznos has pretty decent subs as well.
 
@Frank I know what a sub is, lol. It just sounds weird to me, because I imagine like, spaghetti meatballs inside a sub and that just doesn't go together in my mind
 
@Chippies For Subway, the best way to get a meatball sub is on flatbread.
Also, I don't even know where there's a Quiznos any more.
Despite only having 1 Blimpies in the area any more, it's not that far out of my way to go there, as I can hop directly on to S US-127 from where it is.
(I usually go E I-496 to S US-127)
A bit more cross-town driving since I'm avoiding the cross-town freeway doing it, but eh.
 
9:20 PM
This is wonderful.
 
This is frightening
 
Why would I want to watch something frightening
 
Science?
 
If I wanted to listen to science, I'd listen to this.
 
@GnomeSlice I was kinda joking.
 
9:24 PM
If you want science, you should listen to this:
 
Although it does have weird Al's face digitally put on a (female) dancer's head, so...
Also, going home time
 
@FAE anyway, I'm planning to, not sure yet

Q: Arma 3 how to add more player information in multiplayer

Guus van WalstijnWhen playing arma 3 multiplayer I can go to my name in the player list and it doesn't show much information. However, when clicking on some players(not much), they seem to have a lot more information like in the next picture: So where can I edit my information like name, website, email and icon?

 
Play TF2 for four hours, win 1 round, get autobalanced to the losing time 4 times.
Play QL for one hour...
I guess QL is full of noobs! :P
 
@badp Personally I do not like Bethesda.
 
9:34 PM
@Fabián They kind of have a monopoly in this particular genre
Remember when everybody wanted to be the new Quake 3?
 
Yea obviously, but that was one of the main reasons I didn't pay a single cent for a subscription. And they didn't fix or renew many of the things until now.
 
@badp Because Unreal Tournament is totally not a thing?
 
@Batophobia bleh
UT3 is garbage.
 
I still like Unreal Tournament '99, or the 2k4
 
UT2k4 is nice against bots
 
9:37 PM
Unreal Tournament is an upcoming first-person shooter video game by Epic Games. It is part of the Unreal series of games, and is a sequel to 2007's Unreal Tournament 3. The game utilizes Epic's Unreal Engine 4 and will be released for free on Windows, OS X, and Linux. Unreal Tournament is unique in that the development will be crowdsourced and open to contribution from anyone. == Development == Unreal Tournament was teased on May 2, 2014, when Mark Rein, vice president and co-founder of Epic Games, stated on Twitter that Unreal Tournament is back, stating, "I love UnrealTournament - So excited...
 
FAE
@KevinvanderVelden How early are you going?
 
but there's no way I'm dipping today my toes in a game that's 10 years old.
Actually I tried that once and it was terribad.
Well -- I was terribad.
But that's what you get when you are 10 years late to the party.
 
@badp yeah, that sucks
It happened to me
 
9:39 PM
Also I'd much rather have "LOL EVERYBODY ROCKET LAUNCHER" to "LOL EVERYBODY PLASMA RIFLE"
 
@badp ever played Xonotic?
 
or whatever UT's rail gun is called
@GnomeSlice Perhaps, but not against players. The issue is the same.
 
rail gun is treated as a sniper rifle...
By plasma rifle I guess you're referring to the shock rifle

Q: Should I only hunt in spring?

DSTESTIt seems like I'm consistently getting a lot more fur and ivory when I hunt in the spring compared to other seasons. Is this simply a confirmation bias or should I be pooling my catpower to hunt in the spring?

 
Uh yeah.
 
9:41 PM
OR Lightning Rifle in UT2k4
 
I wonder if it is truly impossible to make a competitive game where 80% of the players win and yet you have to work for your victory. Something like TF2 where every class has its own private objective
@Fabián No, not that one. The one that fires balls and can explode them
I believe that's the shock rifle. Bloody everyone uses that
 
@badp Shock Rifle then
 
When I saw people doing it, like...
 
Why wouldn't they? It does AoE damage! It one-shots people! It gives you bragging rights!
 
FAE
9:42 PM
@Fabián shock combo so good
 
@badp That's the one.
 
shooting the ball, then moving, then aiming fast to it... I can't even...
 
@GnomeSlice for a moment I thought you said "Monopoly"
 
You didn't read.
huehue
I wonder if there is a monopoly game on steam
 
Nope! I never read what you say!
 
9:43 PM
probably not a recent one
 
huehue
cmon, where's the comeback?
 
@FAE It's way too difficult to master I guess, because it's easy when you don't move to shoot the ball, but after moving yourself, turns to be hard to shoot it. :P
 
bah :(
 
mod abuse
 
FAE
@Fabián yeah, it was so hard to pull off but so satisfying when you did
 
9:46 PM
In Quake it's way more satisfying to hit so many air rockets to the same target :P
 
 
@badp wth
 
@Fabián OK
 
Rammus is that you?
 
10:03 PM
So, let me get this straight, UD
As far as official events are concerned, going to a restaurant that is on a street between some of the academic buildings is considered an off campus event.
Wat.
 
I have 48 hours worth of Furs. That seems to be a rather comfortable level to maintain.

@fredley ... WTH is this?
 
@MartinSojka It's from Look Around You
 
Looking at the Wikipedia article, David Mitchell was on it ... as an inventor of a sex-change machine. Sounds fun. :D
 
@fredley Maths!
 
@badp Right next to Meths!
 
oh man now I have to watch all of the YouTube videos again
 
My favourite element is H20
 
I particularly like that they have tungsten twice in there.
 
I like that Music is 4/4 and Jazz is 5/4
 
I would have been interesting to see what they were up to.
 
Before anyone is forced to go to Polygon: Titan as in "that Blizzard MMO in production." I needed a moment to realise that. Here's an analysis by an MMO dev
 
Butterfly Labs owners just got charged, and the company is currently in receivership.
 
Charged with what?
 
user15026
10:19 PM
@Frank ooooh, really?
 
@AshleyNunn Yep.
@Brant Looks like fraud.
 
buttcoin.org is going to have a field day with this one
 
user15026
@Frank I like their pickles.
 
Not as much schadenfreude as with Prenda, but still always good to see deceptive practices getting the smackdown.
 
FAE
@LessPop_MoreFizz I see now why he does not want trouble in his place.
 
user15026
10:21 PM
@Frank That is pretty fascinating.
 
Speaking of Prenda, I haven't heard much from their end lately.
I wonder when the hammer's going to come down.
 
user15026
@Frank Yeah, it's been pretty quiet.
 
@fredley some jazz is 5/4
 
@Unionhawk I am well aware
However it's a clever joke
 
@RedRiderX Wait, they officially canceled ghost at some point? I knew it was never getting made, but I thought it was still officially in the "we're considering how to best do this" vaporware camp...
 
10:23 PM
@Frank @StrixVaria Kadala prices multiplied by 5
 
@OrigamiRobot Hopefully drop rates were also increased that much.

Q: Clash Of Clans Full Build Cost?

Alberto Pagung SaickI wonder how many gems one need to build a village in Clash of Clans from 0 to full, instantly (using gems to finish, have the resources and whatever it needs), and how much would that cost in real money...

Q: What aspects of a Vault Hunter scale with Overpower Levels?

DragonLordI haven't reached UVHM with any character, let alone Overpower Levels, but I'm curious to know what aspects of a Vault Hunter scale with OP levels. I know that gear and enemies will scale accordingly, but it seems that Action Skills scale to OP levels—for example, I've seen screenshots showing Z...

 
Gonna finish off my Dragoons today! I'll loose build one of them so that people can see what they look like. cc @FAE @Michel @AshleyNunn
 
Wow the Tick is great
 
FAE
@Frank Yay!
 
@FAE Harriet Jimminy is a good woman, and she is not fond of trouble.
 
FAE
10:49 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz I really like her
 
The whole climax of that murderman arc is fantastic.
And then, right after it all resolves, JIB JANEEN.
 
FAE
@LessPop_MoreFizz I'm listening to all the Behind the Scenes stuff, and those are long, so it's slowing down my actual story progression a bit
 
Well, this has been quite a weekend
We closed on the house Friday morning, and spent all weekend moving
 
FAE
@SaintWacko How'd it go?
 
@FAE Great! We had a moving truck, my grandpa's pickup, and our cars
And my parents and their car
We're still unpacking boxes, of course
 
11:00 PM
@FAE yeah, they are worth listening to though.
 
FAE
@SaintWacko Yay for no catastrophes!
 
Haven't gotten anything done today, because we all have a nasty stomach bug :(
 
FAE
@LessPop_MoreFizz Yeah, they're good stuff
@SaintWacko Oh no :( Feel better soon!
 
But yeah, there's a lot of them mixed in right around that point, just as the Sparks Nevada climax gets fast and furious with a big pile of spinoff episodes.
 
@FAE Yeah, I hope so. I spent the morning in bed, and now LadyWacko is sleeping
 
11:01 PM
Troubleshooter episode, cactoid Jim episodes, USSA episodes...
 
Very smooth play right there
 
The house is amazing
It's perfect
I'll have to post some pictures when I'm feeling better
I can park my car in the garage now!
Before, LadyWacko parked in the garage, and even if she didn't, my car wouldn't have fit
 
FAE
@LessPop_MoreFizz Troubleshooter episode was like whaaaat
@SaintWacko LadyWacko is a highly amusing term to me for some reason. I'm so glad you're happy with the house!
 
@FAE @OrigamiRobot came up with it :P
 
I'm basically a genious
 
11:08 PM
@OrigamiRobot First solar panels, now this. What won't you be responsible for?
 
FAE
Sleeptime, g'night all.
 
Smash Bros 4 for 3DS demo is available for everyone now
apparently it's been available since 19th sept, but I only got email about it today. A bit slow, Nintendo?
 
@FAE Murdermen are srs trouble.
Thus, they needed shooting.
 
> The average disposable income of Canadians between the ages of 50 and 54 is now 64 per cent higher than that of 25- to 29-year-olds, the report found. That's up from 47 per cent in the mid-1980s.
 
11:25 PM
Damn oldies
 
@Brant Old people are the worst (cc @Sterno @JasonBerkan)
2
 
Wait, they needed a study to a study to figure out that older people have more disposable income?
Really?
 
@Unionhawk Good job reading the article.
 
I'll admit to not reading.
 
@Unionhawk Or hell, even the quote.
(The problem is that the size of the gap is growing substantially; it basically puts a number on a phenomenon of older workers retiring later, which blockades advancement of younger workers.)
 
11:28 PM
Ah, I see.
 
TL;DR: I’m screwed
 
Yay! Dragoons are done! Finally.
 
@Unionhawk You will never live down this shame.
 
@Wipqozn Yes I will.
 
@Unionhawk Not if we constantly remind you about it.
 
11:32 PM
@Wipqozn shrug Oh no, one time @Uni got called out by @LessPop for missing the point
 
@Unionhawk Oh, I'm pretty sure it's happened more than once.
 
Yeah, you're right, fine
 
@Unionhawk SO NOW YOU'RE LYING TOO?!?!?!
Man, I'm adding this to the list of @Fluttershy's warcrimes.
Also, @Fluttershy has been playing a lot fo FF14 lately.
It's making me want to ply again, but then I remember how much I hate the main quest line, and decide not to do that.
@LessPop_MoreFizz I'd be curious to see a similiar study for the USA. I'd imagine there would be a similiar trend.
 
room topic changed to The Bridge: General Arqade chat room, wherein you are barred from feeding (or thinking about) the invisible turtle. [-*gate] [+mandatory] [+ostracism] [-butts] [-context] [-fun] [jin-fanclub] [lazers] [-lifehack] [murder]
Is this like Buffalo? Because if so I approve
 
11:37 PM
@Brant Better.
 
Yep.
 
Okay why can't I do any Steam Curator stuff for Arqade?
Is there something I'm missing?
 
Arqade is not a single entity. It’s more of a writhing, seething mass.
 
Okay I need to head off. I'll see you ladies and gents tomorrow.
 
11:41 PM
@Brant Well, for the unofficial Arqade Steam group then
I am a moderator.
Does it require an admin to turn on?
 
I think it does
 
Ah okay
 
 
@Brant ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
 
Please don't recommend any games on behalf of Arqade's community
...at least ask the community first!
(but just don't)

Q: How to cope with the fact that I expect more from my teammates than I should?

Bartek BanachewiczLong story short, I feel that my teammates in solo Q are way below me in skill level. My whole ranked team is in Platinum 2-3 already, but I simply haven't been playing that much. That doesn't make me inferior in the team games; quite the contrary - I'm able to outperform our opponents and reason...

 
@badp Well yeah I was checking to see if I could at this point.
It seems like you can only recommend stuff as a group, so I don't know if that will gain much ground here.
