Q: Does "Execute" damage depend on deception time?

Zer0Since normal melee damage is affected by the time left for your deception mode, I wonder wether the same is true for the "Execute" skill.

Q: Can you change difficulty on Spartan Ops Multiplayer

CaulynDarrCan you change the difficulty on matchmaker Spartan Ops missions? There are some challenges to complete the missions on Legendary, and I didn't see any place where I could search for matches with higher difficulty. Do I have to stick to solo mode or playing with friends to play Spartan Ops on L...

 
The economy is so hard to follow. I had it down pat in D2. But it was easy because everything was bad except legends and runewords.
 
So out of Curiosity, I downloaded it, it really is the shittest thing ever
At least Zynga's games look polished
The ui lag is terrible, the 'marketplace' gives weird and random errors
 
What's inside the cube: "500 Server Error" #Curiosity
It's like Diablo 3 all over again.
With the same deep gameplay too.
 
3:16 PM
@InvaderSkoodge At least D3 has gameplay.
 
True, there is actually some strategy in D3.
I could probably code a bot for Curiosity in the amount of time it takes me to find a library that can be used to write bots.
 
@InvaderSkoodge An equivalent amount to Curiosity: clicking/tapping in certain patterns
 
@InvaderSkoodge With MP, I now have to let my Sweeping Wind expire when fighting reflects damage mobs
 
Has anyone else ever experienced strange behaviour on the login screen when you do this:
 
@OrigamiRobot I never paid any attention to the MP news because I never had any intention of turning it up.
 
3:18 PM
@OrigamiRobot Yeah, now that I can hit 90K DPS, Reflects Damage mobs are now annoying.
 
I think we should close this question because as written it's basically unanswerable

Q: When does Master Chief get captured as seen in the Scanned trailer?

GeotargetThe Scanned trailer for Halo 4 shows the Chief captured by the Prometheans and being scanned by one of the Promethean Knights. When does this take place? Is it a trailer for Halo 5 since this doesn't actually happen in Halo 4?

 
At least they're looking at tweaking it, due to the fact that the increased health with MP means it reflects more damage.
 
@InvaderSkoodge I could demolish everything in the game on MP0
 
@murgatroid99 Already VTC'd
 
I never finished act 3/4 inferno on MP0.
 
3:19 PM
@fbueckert Are you using Combination Strike now?
 
My WD was just starting to be able to handle A3 when I stopped playing again.
 
@OrigamiRobot For now, yeah.
 
@InvaderSkoodge I couldn't either before the introduced MP.
 
Kept Fists of Thunder with the dodge rune, though; I don't like Deadly Reach.
 
My monk is built full tank and can barely deal damage because I used him with glass cannon friends, so he's pretty worthless now.
 
3:21 PM
@fbueckert You only have to use it once for the +18% boost
 
I think I got my DH to inferno too and it was almost able to take Act 1.
I hate playing as DH, though.
I hate being fragile.
 
@OrigamiRobot It lasts for 30 seconds. That's crazy.
 
@fbueckert Crazy good you mean.
 
@InvaderSkoodge Play a Barbarian; they're EZ mod.
 
I have a wizard who's most of the way through Nightmare. My Barbarian is still in normal.
Just thinking about getting it through all 3 difficulties is making me want to vomit.
 
3:23 PM
lolololololololol
 
@OrigamiRobot Looks like my primary attack is going to be Hundred Fists, with Deadly Reach as a secondary. Gogo temp buffs!
@InvaderSkoodge Yeah, that's why I don't play anything except my monk, really.
 
@fbueckert That's my build. Deadly Reach is actually really good for keeping Sweeping Wind up.
 
Apparently Windows 8 does something that prevents DUC from working
 
@OrigamiRobot I usually don't have a problem maintaining Sweeping Wind.
I usually just hammer through all the local demons. Once I've cleared a full area, I run back and pick up all the gold and rares that dropped.
 
3:27 PM
I mean it lets you refresh it on barrels and stuff
 
Holy crap!
 
@GnomeSlice We are not reddit, please calm down
 
@GrayStoat Hm? What about reddit?
 
Think it was implying you spend more time posting random stuff than actually engaging in conversation
 
@pixel Conversation always ends in insults with me.
 
3:31 PM
@GnomeSlice I've seen you type stuff that wasn't insulting before
I'm sure I've seen you say "hi" a couple of times
 
2 days ago, by OrigamiRobot

Oh man, I wish I could do this stuff
@OrigamiRobot HAH! EAT VIMEO BITCH.
 
@OrigamiRobot Nice timing
 
@OrigamiRobot Two days ago? I've seen that card.
 
@GnomeSlice Vimeo wishes it was YouTube
 
3:33 PM
@pixel Why the hell would anything wish that?
 
@pixel Vimeo does not wish it were youtube. It probably doesn't even want to be associated with Youtube.
 
@GnomeSlice The card text only specifies links.
 
@OrigamiRobot Hm... I see.
 
@OrigamiRobot Can you automate this so that you post that card every time @GnomeSlice posts three links (as has just happened)?
 
@OrigamiRobot All primary attacks allow you to refresh on barrels and stuff. They just have to be crits. Pretty sure Deadly Reach is the same.
 
3:34 PM
@GrayStoat One of them is an image.
That doesn't count.
 
@fbueckert Yes, but your Sweeping Wind will destroy the barrel before you can attack with anything other than Deadly Reach.
Also, it doesn't have to crit to refresh
 
Thursday, Thursday, gotta get down on Thursday
 
@OrigamiRobot Really? That's what I've noticed.
But then, I completely forgot that Sweeping Wind's range is greater than most primary attacks, so what do I know? :P
 
No, crits make it stack. Any melee attack refreshes it.
I asked a question about it.
@GnomeSlice Images are links.
@GrayStoat Too lazy. I made the card. Isn't that enough for you people?
 
@OrigamiRobot No, you're meant to be a robot, get on with it and stop making excuses!
 
3:40 PM
It's now been a while since the last time I saw an Indie Royale bundle I wanted
 
@pixel I am a robot meant to relate to humans so I am doing what I am supposed to,
 
@OrigamiRobot and I thought you were a robot designed to fold paper...
 
That's it!
 
@RavenDreamer Why are you such a ruiner.

Q: Site Login Buttons induce Epilepsy

GnomeSliceThere's some strange behaviour happening on the login screen. When you hover over the very top edge of one of the login buttons, the button image flutters between the 'over' and 'normal' states. Can anyone else reproduce this? I'm using chrome, at the moment.

 
@ArdaXi @AshleyNunn Commence staring at @pixel!
 
3:42 PM
@OrigamiRobot I am stare proof
 
@GnomeSlice This happens a lot when the moused-over and moused-out versions of something are different sizes.
 
@InvaderSkoodge yeah there was something on chat that did the same, can't remember what it was, either got fixed or I got bored of setting it off
 
Bah, what good are minions when they don't answer your every beck and call? YOU'RE ALL FIRED!
 
@OrigamiRobot I am sorry that in your time of need you were deserted.
 
I need a robot hug T_T
 
3:49 PM
@RavenDreamer Was that edit really necessary?
Pretty sure I know what is and isn't offensive about the term 'Tourette's Syndrome'.
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice That doesn't mean it won't bother someone who isn't you.
 
I suppose.
Yeah, okay.
 
@pixel ಠ_ಠ
 
REDEEMED
 
hardly
he had to be promoted and publicly shamed before he started to act
 
3:54 PM
I am sorry for doubting you
 
most dictators would have already fed him to the sharks
 
I was out getting headphones. =[
 
@pixel Raven isn't around
 
@OrigamiRobot @GnomeSlice disagrees with you
 
@pixel That is par for the course.
 
3:55 PM
@OrigamiRobot He is
 
yeah I know
 
user15026
@pixel ಠ_ಠ
 
I realised what I had said the moment I said it
@AshleyNunn @ArdaXi I am immune to your stares
 
@pixel No you're not. ಠ_ಠ
 
yep yep yep
 
3:56 PM
Keep telling yourself that. ಠ_ಠ
 
Spending your life with everypony staring at you builds up an immunity
 
We will endure!
 
You will run out of batteries before I fall victim to your staring
 
I have spares!
 
whut
 
3:58 PM
@OrigamiRobot think fast pushes the robot into water
@GnomeSlice It's a free text field, what do you expect
 
@pixel Oh, there's tons of 'genres' on soundcloud that make no sense.
This one is just... amusing for some reason.
 
@GnomeSlice Clowncore
 
@pixel Robocide!
 
@ArdaXi Your evil mechanical leader has been murdered, guess your life has no meaning anymore... poor you
I would send you my condolences, but they're cash on delivery and you can't afford them
 
This means I take over his position as ruler of robot!
 
4:01 PM
His position of paper folding robot?
 
@ArdaXi Wow, robot armies have fallen on hard times if a robot army doesn't even have a robot in it.

TREACHERY
 
@fbueckert What makes you think I'm not?
 
I don't even run on electricity!
 
@ArdaXi you are obviously a meat bag
 
4:02 PM
@pixel I'm flattered.
 
@OrigamiRobot You're a robot. Unless you're a strange steampunk dealie that runs with a steam engine or something.
 
@ArdaXi You're welcome
 
Here on Earth they'll wonder
As I piece by piece replace myself
And the steel and circuits will make me whole
But I'll still feel so alone
Until Laura calls me home
 
@fbueckert Steam engine would still be rendered inoperable by being submerged in water
 
FAE
@ArdaXi Yay JoCo.
 
4:03 PM
:D
 
Oct 30 at 16:50, by OrigamiRobot
@desaivv I run on stars and @Wipqozn's despair.
 
@pixel Protomodern biblical death metal

Q: Are questions about hardware mods on topic?

MBraedleyI came across the following question, and my first instinct was to vote to close as off-topic: Xbox 360 slim briefcase mod. To be clear, this meta question deals only with case mods or other similar hardware mods. Let's call them Ben Heck mods. I've held off on voting for the time being so tha...

 
@badp lol

Jul 22 at 19:42, by OrigamiRobot
Don't you people know I use chat stars as fuel? You just shortened my life by 5 years!
 
@OrigamiRobot your lack of stars today must have shortened it by more than that
 
@pixel To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if that were a real thing. In fact, Googling it turns up an astonishing number of results.
 
@OrigamiRobot Ouch, stay away from Grace.
 
@ArdaXi Grace is a fellow robot/artillery
 
@GnomeSlice I know, musical people are crazy
 
4:05 PM
@OrigamiRobot Star-stealing robot.
 
At least that's how I excuse myself
 
@pixel Are you familiar with Whalecore?
 
@ArdaXi We share
 
How romantic.
 
It's... well... Whalecore is a thing, anyway.
> Summary: 'whalecore' is now unfortunately a legitimate genre label.
 
4:07 PM
@GnomeSlice no, I'm not :p
 
Lol
@pixel It started with a concept album based on the story of Moby Dick, by Mastodon.
It's pretty foolish.
Then AHAB came around.
 
@OrigamiRobot I don't think so, Whalecore is a subgenre of some kind of metal.
It's pretty dumb all-around.
 
@GnomeSlice I'd rather listen to Great Big Sea.
 
@OrigamiRobot Heh. I see what you did there.
 
4:10 PM
What did I do?
 
Defile on @GnomeSlice!
 
@OrigamiRobot "hoho, you made a funny"
 
What funny?
 
rocks fall... everybody dies
 
\o/
 
4:15 PM
Good, i wanted to reroll a barbarian
 
Oh man, you can get a desktop version of NodeBeat... and it's free!
Ah, it doesn't have all of the features of the mobile version though.
 
The world is backwards

Q: Exhaustive list of instant kills

AntoI've been playing Left 4 dead 2 for years now, and I'm still frequently learning new instant kills. There are actually a lot of them, especially on the first L4D maps. The charger is probably the most adequate special infected to instant kill some poor survivor, but there are also a lot of poss...

 
huh
you know when a couple days ago an angry user said mods only ever play games that end in "3"
I still honestly don't know what he was hinting to...
Why would we ever choose games by the number at the end of the name?
 
@badp What is 'Big Picture'?
 
@badp There are no games that end in 3.
@GnomeSlice 10-foot HUD for Steam.
Basically, an Xbox-like interface.
 
@ArdaXi Yeah, that's kind of the second obvious thing.
 
@badp Not referring to the picture, just.. in general.
 
4:43 PM
@Mana's notification appeared just as I was taking the screenshot of my own list of recently played games
@ArdaXi Well that's another thing entirely.
 
@badp "fifty million of your closest friends" wat.
Hey, I like their typing interface for the controller, that's a neat idea.
"the world's first first-person browser" wat.
Oh, so I have to have my Steam PC on my TV to use this? Well this is useless then. =[
 
BEWARE, I LIVE
 
@OrigamiRobot Oh man, why didn't you get a Sinistar gravitar before now.
That's perfect.
 
@GnomeSlice Because @RonanForman made me the GIR one before I ever bothered with Gravatar
and it escalated from there
Now the time has come for me to reveal my true form.
 
@GnomeSlice Whoa, yeah, that's a brilliant idea
 
4:56 PM
@OrigamiRobot cowers
 
Now I need someone to make a gif generator so I can make gifs of me eating other people's gravatars
 
@OrigamiRobot We should change the insert coin chat game to eating gravatars as Sinistar whenever you're logged in.
Or make you a boss or something.
 
Yes, I approve.
 
Who do we petition.
 
I love being able to edit the raws in DF
I wish more games worked like that
 
5:05 PM
I can't wait to close all the questions when it s over.
 
@OrigamiRobot Yeah, a game that has a finite life span doesn't seem like a great thing to keep around.
 
@OrigamiRobot I've seen this tag and I have no idea what it is.
 
Speaking of, we'll have to close all City of Heroes questions at the end of the month.
We only have a half-dozen, so no biggie.
 
Morning All
 
5:09 PM
Shut up.
 
@ArdaXi :(
 
@James RUN, COWARD
 
@OrigamiRobot Huh?
 
yay, it's my 1-year anniversary. party party parttttty
 
@James I HUNGER
 
5:11 PM
@agent86 Gratz :)
 
@James tyvm :P
 
@OrigamiRobot If I am supposed to recognize your new gravatar, I dont :)
@agent86 Don't you point that thing at me! I do not know where its been!
 
@James it's Sinistar, which Grace at one point thought was what mine was.
 
yesterday, by fbueckert
1 min ago, by OrigamiRobot
4 mins ago, by fbueckert
My respect for you has dropped accordingly.
 
Feb 3 at 15:06, by Grace Note
Also, @Agent, I had for the longest time always assumed your image was a Sinistar reference
RUN, COWARDS!
(which I still hear in the heavy's voice, sorry Sinistar fans...)
 
5:14 PM
@agent86 RRRRRRRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
 
Feb 3 at 17:46, by OrigamiRobot
Man, now I kinda wanna change my gravatar to Sinistar. It would look awesome when I enter chat.
apparently this is 9 months in the making...
 
@OrigamiRobot Now I'm getting you confused with GnomeSlice.
 
I gave you all plenty of time to prepare.
 
@Ullallulloo ಠ_ಠ
 
@Ullallulloo You just moved to the top of the list of people to be eaten.
 
5:16 PM
@Ullallulloo yeah, I totally did too.
I could've sworn the last couple of messages he posted came from Gnome.
 
@OrigamiRobot To be fair, they're really similar now.
 
@OrigamiRobot Triple posting there, eh?
 
@fbueckert Not at all. I can definitely see Grace's confustion with @agent86, but not @GnomeSlice
 
This question seems a little iffy.
 
@OrigamiRobot I think he was making a joke that I used to be the top of the list to be eaten.
@fbueckert Bad subjective, depends entirely on play style.
 
5:20 PM
@OrigamiRobot I thought that was @Gnome posting.
 
@fbueckert That's not because our gravatars look similar, it's because you are dumb.
 
@OrigamiRobot Yours is yellow-ish. Agent's's white.
 
@Ullallulloo It's not yellow at all!
 
@OrigamiRobot Yes it is, look at the lighting.
 
5:22 PM
Also, @agent86's gravatar is square, and @OrigamiRobot's isn't.
 
it looks kinda yellow to me.
and mine is very white.
plus, ScoTTy's eyes are red.
 
@Ullallulloo Two of these are the same.
 
@GnomeSlice Oops. I had more, but I hit the character limit. I have troubles copying sometimes though.
 
THAT'S IT IMMA EAT ALL OF YOU
 
Whenever @OrigamiRobot is logged in to Aqrade chat, he should become a boss in the insert coin game.
 
5:24 PM
@OrigamiRobot haha HAHAHA! you try, you mechanized robot skull thing, you! CHOKE ON MY MASSIVE TENTACLES
 
I will do no such thing!
 
@OrigamiRobot chooooooke
 
user15026
O.o so much violence! Can't we just eat cupcakes and get along?
 
@AshleyNunn can he choke on the cupcakes?
 
user15026
@agent86 that's not very nice! Although I suppose cupcakes might be a choking hazard, if approached incorrectly.
 
5:26 PM
@agent86 Okay, this is rapidly getting really creepy.
 
@GnomeSlice would you like a tentacle? I've got plenty...
@AshleyNunn d'aww
 
user15026
@agent86 I just think we should be nicer to each other. Foster cooperation between species.
 
@AshleyNunn soooo... no choking, then? :(
man, why is everything fun "not fostering cooperation between species" :/
 
user15026
@agent86 no choking. Try hugs instead. But not too tight.
 
@AshleyNunn this doesn't sound as fun, but... for you, sigh
 
5:34 PM
After nearly 2 years of planning and scheming, our infamous "indie game incubator" has launched! Welcome Execution Labs http://www.executionlabs.com
What do you guys make of this?
 
user15026
@agent86 that's better. gives cupcake
 
@AshleyNunn yaaay cupcakes
I had some cake last night with pudding instead of frosting between the layers. it was delicious

Q: What is Captain Kidd's treasure?

desaivvI have found 14/24 trinkets for Peg Leg. After returning each back to Peg Leg a naval map location is revealed to me. Now the latest one has me aboard the Octavius, and I died a few times trying to escape it after I found another fragment of a map. I would like to know just what it is to be fou...

 
user15026
@agent86 that sounds amazing. :)
 
@GnomeSlice Just from the tweet that they are trying to jump on the kickstarter/greenlight bandwagon
 
@fbueckert I'm considering giving in and rolling a barb
 
@OrigamiRobot Can I have your stuff? :P
 
@fbueckert I never said i was abandoning my monk!
 
@OrigamiRobot If you're making a barb, you're doing it for farming, and you'll be doing it much more efficiently there. Why would you switch back to a slower, more fragile character?
 
@fbueckert To have fun.
 
5:46 PM
@OrigamiRobot Why would you roll a barbarian, then? From all accounts, they're not fun at all; they're just stupid overpowered for farming.
 
@fbueckert For being a non-robot, you are very binary.
I can want a farming char and a fun char.
 
@OrigamiRobot Your gravatar is broken.
 
@InvaderSkoodge NO U
 
5:50 PM
@James Is there ECM in MWO yet?
 
@OrigamiRobot Nope
 
Best thing 'information' wise in MWO so far are the more accurate TAG/NARC missile locking systems
Yeah I am disappointed as a scout mech that the whole information 'pillar' has been ignored.. still.
 
I should still log in to try out the new Heat Sinks and Armor and Mechs and everything
@Wipqozn is here!
 
@OrigamiRobot Yes. Although I'm playign Civ v.
 
5:57 PM
Yay, I was just able to delete 16 GB of duplicate backups!
