I don't get 5 Nights at Freddy's hype. 3 games now of essentially the same experience. If this was Assassins Creed people would be furious.

Tweeted by JesseCox on March 3, 2015 at 4:33 PM

(as an indication of my level of care)

RPi Awesomeness

Yeah. It is kinda the same, just slightly tweaked.

The only reason I was excited for it was for the Game Theorists video :D

That's been the best part of this whole saga :D

5pike

@RPiAwesomeness Seconded. The "lore" is much more interesting than the game.

RPi Awesomeness

Seriously.

And his recent videos (especially about FNAF) have been exceptionally spooky and definitely possible...

5pike

I also like watching the completionist suffer

RPi Awesomeness

:)

Powerlord

5:19 PM

@Unionhawk Assassin's Creed also costs $60 per game.

Paying full price for all 3 FnaF games is cheaper than just one Assassin's Creed game at full price.

(assuming 3 is in line with the other 2 price wise)

Incidentally... it's not quite the same gameplay wise between the games.

Batophobia

@Powerlord Still, 3 games in half a year is crazy

Powerlord

@Batophobia 7 months, but close enough to half a year I guess

I wasn't even aware FNAF3 was out yet, but apparently it was released yesterday.

Apparently I was too busy to notice yesterday. Which given that I didn't even turn on my PC after work until 10:15pm yesterday...

RPi Awesomeness

In FNAF 3's defense - the game mechanics have changed quite a bit from the original.

Powerlord

@Frank So, now do you have to try to track down everything they were accessing to see if they were stealing information?

Frank

@Powerlord Hah. Like I have time for that.

If anything, this is the reinforcement I needed to ensure that every employee has their own username.

murgatroid99

My new favorite line in the PHP codebase:

#define HASH_KEY_NON_EXISTANT HASH_KEY_NON_EXISTENT /* Keeping old define (with typo) for backward compatibility */

Yuuki

... At some point, you should just abandon backwards compatibility.

It seems that so many of PHP's problems come from trying to stay backwards compatible.

murgatroid99

@Yuuki Too many of PHP's problems come from the fact that every part of it is poorly designed

Q: MineCraft Issues Offline

Basically my minecraft says its offline when I am. I know you can't play multiplayer on offline but I am online and it won't let me play. I have tried getting a new account and new usernames and it doesn't work. What can I do?

minecraft

murgatroid99

@KevinvanderVelden Sure, I'll go with that

Kevin van der Velden

@murgatroid99 =p

murgatroid99

I'm beginning to think that the reason I hate the PHP C API so much is because they tried to make programming in C feel like programming in PHP, and like everything they do, ended up with a combination worse than either

fredley

@murgatroid99 Not every part! I mean at least they got... hmmm.... they must have got something right, right?

@murgatroid99 That. Sounds. Horrific.

The ability to mix markup and logic seamlessly is great though!

murgatroid99

@fredley I'm writing a library, so I often forget that's even a thing

SaintWacko

@fredley That's true

fredley

@SaintWacko /sarcasm

murgatroid99

@fredley Everything is undocumented macros (so, no type information), and there are functions that take a void**, which it turns out is supposed to be cast from a zval***

This is probably at least a thousand #define lines spread over at least 40 files

Origami Robot

OK FD, we got the joke

fredley

@murgatroid99 z. val. ***. wat.

SaintWacko

6:04 PM

@fredley What?

fredley

@SaintWacko Because logic in templates is a great idea!

murgatroid99

@fredley zval == Zend value. It's the value type for any type the PHP interpreter exposes to the user

fredley

@murgatroid99 ***?

SaintWacko

@fredley What?!

I'm so confused

Origami Robot

You can release 1.2 now

fredley

6:05 PM

@SaintWacko (It's not)

murgatroid99

@fredley Remember, it's a void** that just happens to be a zval***

Q: Grand Theft Auto 5 not loading

I bought a copy of Grand Theft Auto 5 from Lukie Games. But when i put it in my ps3 it starts loading the story mode. The problem is it wont do more than that, it just stays on that screen of the blond getting arrested, not loading. Anyone else have this problem? If so can you tell me how to fix ...

ps3 grand-theft-auto-5

murgatroid99

@fredley basically, it's an out parameter, so it's a pointer to a void* that the function will populate, and it turns out that it's populating it with a zval** value.

SaintWacko

@fredley What does logic in templates have to do with the Pebble Time?

fredley

@SaintWacko I thought you were replying to a different message

Origami Robot

Well, that's better than an unexpected trip I suppose.

Get well soon either way <3

SaintWacko

@AshleyNunn Oh no!

I hope everything is okay and you are feeling better soon

Powerlord

@AshleyNunn On the bright side, you know what's causing it. On the dim side... brain surgery.

But you'll be perfectly fine.

Unless the doctor is siding with the zombies.

If @AshleyNunn becomes a zombie, that means I need to build a zombie robot with a hug gun.

Unionhawk

@OrigamiRobot That's actually interesting. Could make large systems worth exploring

TheAce

@OrigamiRobot thats the way it should be done

Origami Robot

Shield Boosters

You can purchase and fit shield boosters to utility mounts.
Each booster increases your shields overall strength by a set amount when the booster is powered.
Be aware, increasing your shield strength in this manner will cause regeneration, including time required to reform after breaking, to increase.

Hull upgrade packages

You can purchase and fit hull upgrade packages for internal slots.
Each hull upgrade package increases your ship’s overall hull integrity.
Be aware, hull upgrade packages have mass that may impact negatively on a ship’s flight characteristics.

@StrixVaria its mostly just clicking things and shitting your psnts from what I've seen

Wipqozn

@StrixVaria You look at cameras to see where the various "puppets" are, and close the doors when the puppets are nearby so they don't kill you. There's a limited amount of power, and a door being closed or looking at a camera takes power.

That doesn't sound fun.

@OrigamiRobot thought so

Powerlord

Five Nights at Freddy's 2 changes things up by removing the power mechanic (and doors) and instead giving you a Freddy Fazbear head. Also, the side entrances are now ducts you can hear things moving in when they get near.

Of course, they replace some of the bots with new ones, and you constantly have to make sure the music box is wound or you get auto-attacked by one of them
