5:00 PM

Is Resistance vertical or horizontal splitscreen?

Ben Brocka

It's why I got Borderlands for PS3 though, love couch co op

@FAE both IIRC

FAE

@BenBrocka This makes me horribly sad.

OrigamiRobot

@James Sure

FAE

@BenBrocka Excellent! I despise horizontal splitscreen. >_<

Ronan Forman

Is anyone available to help me?

OrigamiRobot

5:00 PM

@RonanForman With what?

James

I am just not sure what is ok and what isnt.. I mean look for tunnel but just not in the optimal pattern to also pick up resources?

Ben Brocka

Horizontal worked well with 4:3

Tristan

@RonanForman What's up?

James

@RonanForman With?

Ben Brocka

well, either veritcal or horizontal

James

5:01 PM

(ping ping PING!)

Ronan Forman

I want to see if this map is the right size.

Raven Dreamer

@FAE One of the bigwigs from Insomniac games gave a presentation to my class on Monday!

Ben Brocka

16:9 needs vert

Tristan

@RonanForman I'm available.

FAE

@BenBrocka "Let's split the screen into almost decent sized 4:3" or "Let's split the screen into something so skinny it's barely usable"... I very much prefer Vertical.

Raven Dreamer

5:01 PM

(Speaking of Resistance)

OrigamiRobot

@RonanForman I can help too

James

@RonanForman I can do a quick hop in and out (15min?)

FAE

@RavenDreamer That is very cool.

Ronan Forman

Raven Dreamer

He talked about the development process and the futility of zombie pants.

OrigamiRobot

5:01 PM

@James Just don't do this

James

@OrigamiRobot kk, now if I can get some art skills ill sign up :)

FAE

@BenBrocka This is part of why I never finished Gears of War. Horizontal splitscreen made it so I couldn't even see where I was throwing my grenades. -_-

Ronan Forman

You need to mod installed to get on.

Ben Brocka

@FAE by horiz you mean wiiide and short, right?

I can never remember which is which

FAE

@BenBrocka Yeah.

OrigamiRobot

5:03 PM

@RonanForman You read my mind.

Tristan

@RonanForman How do I do that?

James

@RonanForman ah, Ill be a min then.. Which client version is it running?

OrigamiRobot

Watching the server logs are we?

@RonanForman So this ultra-HC thing is pretty much PvP?

Ronan Forman

@FAE Yeah.

FAE

@RonanForman :( I'll be sitting out then. I have negative interest in MC PvP.

GnomeSlice

@RavenDreamer Sorry about the 'runloop'.

Ian Pugsley

@RonanForman do you think you might have time to draw me a dood?

Ben Brocka

@FAE same here

Ronan Forman

@IanPugsley Sure, what do you want.

Raven Dreamer

5:05 PM

@GnomeSlice hm?

James

@FAE @BenBrocka Watch the video.. Its pretty much everyone sitting around waiting for the other people to die of natural causes :)

Plus, @OrigamiRobot died like he was made of paper last night :D

Q: Do items despawn?

I just found a heart! Unfortunately, I don't need this heart, but I am 100% sure I will need it later. If I leave the heart alone long enough, will it disappear? What about coins and other items?

GnomeSlice

It could have been a lot better.

murgatroid99

@Lazers I'm almost positive about this, but I can't load up BoI to check

GnomeSlice

@RonanForman By the way, am I whitelisted? Since we're talking about it.

Ronan Forman

5:07 PM

@GnomeSlice You're not on.

Ian Pugsley

@murgatroid99 I feel like they do but I'm no expert (hence the question)

Ronan Forman

@James Try now.

GnomeSlice

@RonanForman Not right now, but aren't you talking about our normal server?

James

Wow, my ping from the office sucks

Ronan Forman

@GnomeSlice Nope.

James

5:07 PM

@RonanForman Still says the same

murgatroid99

@IanPugsley I don't remember ever seeing a floor without a secret room, but it could be hard to check because on say the first floor you might not have enough bombs to check every possible spot

Ian Pugsley

btw @RonanForman, do we want to mention something about texture packs?

James

@IanPugsley x-ray texture pack FTW! :D

GnomeSlice

@IanPugsley @RonanForman What are you guys doing?

Ian Pugsley

@murgatroid99 yeah, the first floor and the womb are the levels I'd have any suspicion about

GnomeSlice

5:08 PM

@James Piehole is where it's at.

Ronan Forman

@IanPugsley Not really bothered, but I'm not going to be using by zoom mod.,

@GnomeSlice Ah, well.

It's all good.

murgatroid99

@IanPugsley I know that there are secret rooms on Womb floors, but what I'm not sure about is Sheol, since when I get there I usually make a beeline to the boss

Ian Pugsley

@murgatroid99 ah yeah I forgot all about Sheol

I've only beat Mom's heart once

(with a Bible :/ )

GnomeSlice

@RavenDreamer So, is the game nearing completion?

James

5:10 PM

@RonanForman I hope my ping is better from home.. 2 bars is fairly low

murgatroid99

@IanPugsley I've gotten to Sheol a few times, but I don't think I ever beat the boss

Raven Dreamer

@GnomeSlice Ayup. Just added in the final character art to the game today.

Ronan Forman

@James We wont be using this server.

Raven Dreamer

It is ridiculous and also amazing.

to see that viking run.

James

@RonanForman Ah, kk

GnomeSlice

5:10 PM

@RavenDreamer Is there a release date?

Ian Pugsley

@RavenDreamer does your school own it or will you be able to release it?

Raven Dreamer

@GnomeSlice I'm not sure (I've never had to get something certified for the App store before)

There is a "no more devlopment after this date" date, though.

James

@RavenDreamer I have been meaning to ask.. What school do you go to that asks for game projects?

GnomeSlice

Heh.

Raven Dreamer

@IanPugsley Not my school, my sponsor company, and they very much want to release it.

Ian Pugsley

5:11 PM

@RavenDreamer ah awesome

James

@Tristan I shall taunt you with my being logged in, Muwahahaha!

Ian Pugsley

IOS only or Android too? :P

Raven Dreamer

@James It's just my Senior Design class - just one of the companies that approached the school was like, "We want an iOS game"

Tristan

@James Logged in on what? >.>

Raven Dreamer

iOS only, @IanPugsley

James

5:12 PM

@Tristan The server you keep bouncing out of :)

FAE

@RavenDreamer sadface

Ian Pugsley

@RavenDreamer bummer

Raven Dreamer

Also, are you a gummi bear?

@Sterno awesome

...I had no idea there was a daily vote limit on comments.

fbueckert

@Sterno That is very awesome

Tim Stone

@FAE Wait, wha?

James

@RonanForman @OrigamiRobot @Tristan I had to hop out. I really should be focusing on work and DragonVale keeps me occupied enough as is :)

FAE

@TimStone It won't let me upvote comments on questions anymore. It says I reached a daily limit.

Tim Stone

5:32 PM

Huh.

Indeed:

A: What is the daily comment vote limit?

From the blog: Each user gets 5 comment flag votes, and 30 comment upvotes, per day.

Ian Pugsley

@James I envy your ability to take a gaming break from work

Tim Stone

I guess I've never been in a position to hit that limit.

FAE

Which is... kind of annoying, honestly. I prefer to upvote comments of other people rather than post another comment repeating the same stuff.

I can see a limit for regular votes, as rep is tied to it, but I'm not sure I understand why there's a comment limit.

James

@IanPugsley I am in a lul.. and the company I work for generally seems happy with my productivity level (Had to show off my stuff this morning :))

FAE

@TimStone I'm going through closed LoL questions and either leaving a comment as to why they were closed or upvoting the comments of others who have left comments with good explanations.

Ian Pugsley

5:34 PM

@James I envy that as well

Tim Stone

Ah ha

James

@IanPugsley haha, well not much I can do about that :)

agent86

@FAE it's good that there are so many good comments to upvote, but I'm saddened by the fact that there are so many closed questions that you hit the comment upvote cap

Throughout the game you interact with various objects, people, environments that trigger "dreams".

5:36 PM

18:00 UTC == 10:00 PST?

@Lazers what is YLOD?

@Lazers I need to finish this game. I've barely started it and I've heard it's really good!

@FAE Yellow light of death

@James Check the steam group.

FAE

@fbueckert aaah okay

Sterno

FTL = "Space Roguelike"? Stop taking all my money, Kickstarter!

fbueckert

5:38 PM

PS3 acquire this condition, usually launch ones. Essentially, it overheats and crashes.

James

@RonanForman The work thing makes steam access iffy, Ill have to check later :)

Ronan Forman

@James Facebook?

agent86

Mar 24 at 15:19, by agent86

should I be backing FTL? it seemed interesting, but I missed the onlive preview

fbueckert

@Sterno YES. Played the demo. Very fun.

agent86

the end result of that was yes, yes I did back FTL

James

5:38 PM

@RonanForman 100% no access to that at work :/

I just googled it, and it should be 8 hours off as I thought so I think I got the maths right

FAE

@agent86 This makes me so happy!

agent86

@FAE what about what makes you happy?

FAE

@agent86 Small game developers successfully getting funded through Kickstarter.

James

@agent86 FLT the kick starter project?

agent86

@FAE I can be happy about this too :D

did you also see LPMF's link that was re: wasteland 2 earlier?

they're getting the band back together

James

5:43 PM

... Take care with backing Wasteland 2...

Sterno

@James elaborate

agent86

@James I first got into a sitting position, and then I clicked the button very carefully :D

FAE

@agent86 I never played the original, but this also looks promising :)

agent86

wow, if somehow we could play this game on the bridge, I think we're the right audience for it: The Metagame

James

I would just suggest waiting for the game to be made and buying it then rather than backing it.. No way it wont get made, but you will be more assured what you are getting if you wait.

agent86

5:45 PM

and of course tim shafer got my money. That man could ask me for $15 because he wants to eat 15 $1 tacos at taco bell and I'd be honored to give him my cash.

James

@agent86 haha, that man got alot of my money

And I actually do not like adventure games all that much :D

agent86

"Mr. Shafer," I'd say (I'd have previously asked to call him Tim, but it felt awkward), "I would even go to Taco Bell and buy those tacos for you," I'd answer, with a tear in my eye.

Sir, what kind of sauce would you like with that

and he'd probably say "Mild, son. Mild."

James

Haha

Tristan

@FAE Wanna play some LoL?

Sterno

@James That's kind of the opposite of the purpose of a kickstarter. You're effectively saying "Beware of Kickstarter, regardless of project"

Ian Pugsley

5:48 PM

@agent86 Tim Schafer is a man, who would need a manly sauce. He'd make you pick something up from somewhere else.

James

@Sterno Uh, no.. I am saying that I know people who have worked at that company and they do not exactly give other people glowing reviews on their ability... to... shall we say manage money effectively?

Sterno

@James Ah! So you're saying everything beyond the original amount will be spent on hookers and blow?

I'm cool with that as long as they put pictures of it in the final game credits

James

@Sterno Not at all.

I just wonder if it is going to end up being a flash game :D

agent86

@James I realize it's a gamble, but on the whole I'd rather see the games made and support my favorite artists and encourage them to make games I'd want to play. I want tim SCHAFER with a C in there to make an adventure game. I want him to do it so bad.

OrigamiRobot

LoL anyone?

James

5:50 PM

@agent86 Yeah, Nothing but good to say about Tim... Which is why I backed a game I have no interest in playing at the $500 level.

Sterno

Well, I gave the Grim Dawn guys my money like two years ago, and I figure that game's never coming out at this rate. But I'm okay with that. :P

James

I am just being a bit more cautious with the wasteland 2 project, which is a game I -DO- want to play.

Ullallulloo

So, apparently my fort's really bad or something.

James

@Sterno kickstarter.com/profiles/841853748/projects/backed My backed projects so far :)

Ullallulloo

This happened as soon as the Dwarvern merchants arrived:

FAE

5:52 PM

@Tristan You have horrible timing. :( I need to start dinner.

Ullallulloo

CruelCow

@James Well it is funded already, so you can safely lean back and wait

Sterno

There's a guy I work with who has like 200 projects funded. He's a little crazy.

James

@CruelCow That is exactly the advice I am giving out.. no way wastelands 2 wont get funded and made.

FAE

@Sterno Wow. Lots of disposable income, I take it.

James

5:53 PM

@Sterno They give out rankings for stuff lke that every year.. There is a guy who backs almost every project at $1 each just to get in there.

Sterno

@FAE He and his wife are double income, no kids, so yeah. He's also got an Amazon package arriving for him at work nearly every day.

And it's usually full of gaming goodness

FAE

@Sterno Nice.

James

@Sterno Niiice

Tell him to pick up Epic Spell Wars! :D

@Sterno not having kids will do that to you.

fbueckert

5:59 PM

Are game recommendations here in chat allowed? I'd like to ask for one, but I dunno if I'm gonna get hammered for doing so. :)

James

@fbueckert Ask away

Worse that can happen is you can call us jerks and go away :)

fbueckert

@James Heh.

StrixVaria

@fbueckert Very much so.

Chat is a free for all, pretty much.

The main site is what's moderated strictly.

fbueckert

Anyone familiar with Kairosoft's games for mobile devices? I'm looking for something isometric-ish, sort of in the same vein, but for PC.

I love their games, I just find them lacking in depth.

James

@fbueckert They deal with simple simulation type games. Towns, villages, game development studios ( I am waiting for Dungeon Village to come out on iOS)

For the PC the game Towns is -somewhat- like Dungeon Village.. But...

Well the game is a beta and in my opinion seriously seriously lacking in enjoyment.

I always felt like I was fighting to get my villagers to stop being morons.

There was actually a browser game where you ran an inn and sent adventurers out on quests to get you better brewing materials.. but I do not think it ever completed (I cannot locate it any more).. Which is a shame cause even as a rough 'here is what I am thinking' that game was fun.

Yeah I am out of games that are like those.. They straddle the line of RTS and Simulation pretty well..

crickets-chirp

fbueckert

6:07 PM

@James Yeah. That's why I like them.

Sterno

@James It would have been rude to interrupt your wall of text.

fbueckert

That browser game you mentioned reminds me a bit of Atelier games from Gust. They need a Harvest Moon-esque game that includes the alchemy bit.

James

@fbueckert A lot of people in here are on the look out for a harvest moon/animal crossing type of game on the iPad/iPhone :)

@Sterno Haha, Thanks I think.

Ullallulloo

I take it Dwarf Fortress is too complex?

fbueckert

@Ullallulloo Dwarf Fortress is fun, but the lack of clear goals sorta rules it out. Love sandbox games, though.

James

6:10 PM

@Ullallulloo I will admit that game seems to elude captivating me.. I think just learning the interface is a bit cumbersome.

fbueckert

@James Honestly, I probably would be, too. I just want a fun, complex game. That's isometric. And for PC. Is that too much to ask? :P

James

@fbueckert Apparently :)

@agent86 Curse you! backs-ftl

Ullallulloo

@fbueckert I haven't played them, but are the Anno games kind of like that?

agent86

@fbueckert I'm not familiar with the games you're referencing... can you give me a title I can look up a video for or something?

James

@Ullallulloo From what I am told about Anno its an RTS economy game.. but i've not played them as of yet...

fbueckert

6:14 PM

@Ullallulloo Yup. 2070 is fun, but still lacks something, though. Not sure what.

@agent86 Do you mean Kairosoft games or the Atelier games I mentioned?

agent86

@fbueckert Kairosoft, I suppose. whatever it is you're trying to match on the PC

James

@agent86 Game Dev Story, Dungeon Village.. Just search Kairosoft and it goes to their webbie :)

Ironically, Game Dev Story started as a PC game :)

fbueckert

@James And Game Dev Story 2 is a free download...in japanese.

James

@fbueckert 2070 worth giving a whirl? I have been considering it as I too want a management game :)

@fbueckert I loved 1. I mean when the worst game you can make is a 'Historical FPS' it clearly dates where the combinations were put together looking back on Call of Duty and Medal of Honor :D

fbueckert

@James Depends on how much complexity you like. This one's not that hard, and the social aspects add a different level, but for the most part, it's 1404 with more water.

James

6:17 PM

@fbueckert Never played that one either :)

agent86

This really kind of reminds me of Transport Tycoon (or any of the Tycoon games, for that matter)

or, y'know, sim city

fbueckert

@James Hmm. The only Anno-analogue I know of is Pharaoh, by Impression Games. Now, if we could get something like THAT updated and more modern, I'd be in heaven.

agent86

I've played most of the Anno series, and I'm trying to think of what is like that...

James

@agent86 More towards the Tycoon games than the Sim games.

agent86

what comes to mind is the same genre would be something like Railroad Tycoon, sadly

fbueckert

6:19 PM

But otherwise, it's city building, with some minor complexity in goods transport. Nothing crazy hard.

agent86

have you tried OpenTTD?

fbueckert

@agent86 Sure have. Tons of fun.

I envision dumping that onto a wallscreen, and once self-sustained, instant screensaver.

agent86

I sill want to buy Anno 2070 at some point. The other games were good enough to warrant getting that one

the price is a bit much at the moment, though.

I was looking for a sale + coupon during the holidays, but it didn't quite fall out

FAE

@agent86 it was like 50% off the other weekend

agent86

@FAE seriously? sigh

on steam, or elsewhere?

James

6:22 PM

@agent86 Dont worry, I think it goes on sale almost every 3 weeks.

WHich is why I have been looking at it off and on.

agent86

@fbueckert what about tropico?

FAE

@agent86 Steam

agent86

>:|

fbueckert

@agent86 I haven't played 4 yet. My impression of 3 was good, but the whole tinpot dictatorship seemed like a unstable Jenga just waiting to fall.

agent86

I wonder why I didn't buy it

@fbueckert yeah, I think the only issue I have is that tropico 4 is pretty much just another remake

fbueckert

6:24 PM

Trying to balance everything was crazy.

Now, something like Star Command for PC would be AWESOME.

agent86

I tended not to have issues, tbh. If you focus early on tobacco and sugar, later you can make factories and mega bucks

then you can afford nice housing, power plants, etc

I cleared all the scenarios in both the base game and the expansion with slight variations of that strategy

I'd be excited for SimCity 4, except stupid EA DRM BS

fbueckert

@agent86 Don't you mean 5? :P

agent86

always on internet DRM? for simcity? WTF

fbueckert

And yeah, I'm with you on that. MURDER Origin.

agent86

@fbueckert probably. by the moderator infallibility principle however, the game is now called SimCity 4.

shrugs I don't make the rules, except for the rule that says I make the rules.

FAE

6:27 PM

@agent86 Yeah -_-

agent86

@FAE Ubisoft did this for 2070 too, though, yeah?

fbueckert

@agent86 Sorta.

FAE

That pretty much killed my interest in it.

fbueckert

There was a social aspect, but nothing to the degree they're doing for SimCity.

Ullallulloo

@agent86 They actually retracted that.

It isn't always-on, you just need an Origin account they said.

FAE

6:28 PM

@agent86 The online component is missable in 2070. As @fbueckert said, for the most part, it's social.

Ullallulloo

pc.gamespy.com/pc/sim-city-5/1221798p1.html

agent86

@FAE but don't they require you to have an internet connection for the DRM? I don't care what they drape over their DRM poop to make it look less like DRM; if the connection's required and bad things happen if I lose my internet, it's still poop.

fbueckert

@FAE The bonuses provided are minor aspects. Although, they hamstring the game if you're not online. No ark items, research crazy limited.

James

Off to lunch and a few rounds of Epic Spell Wars!!!! :D

FAE

@agent86 I think we have a question on this actually

Q: How does offline mode impact Anno 2070?

Anno 2070 apparently has online and offline modes, and I'm wondering how those modes are different. I found some discussion of what you can't do in offline mode, but having not yet played the game those specifics weren't very helpful for me. Basically I'm wondering about whether the online mode...

@CruelCow this is what I do for whatever bogus facebook stuff goes around.

fbueckert

Facebook + game = nope. HATE those "social" aspects. "Tell three friends about this to finish the building!". DIE IN A FIRE.

agent86

6:34 PM

it occurs to me that there's got to be some government agency kicking themselves that they never thought of this before - if you tell people "we're going to track and follow you, taking photos and making notes of your daily routine, and we'll share it with whoever we please" people get up in arms. You put a cow on there people can click, and they will do it to themselves

fbueckert

For the record, the UFO series was awesome. I want the X-Com remake NOW. And I don't mean the stupid FPS.

I find my self getting locked into combat with a group of enemies and unable to run and hide easily or at all and end up button mashing my controller attempting to get my assassin to run away.
