Q: Computer keeps restarting in games

farkenfookenI just bought a new PSU and video card so this problem might be related to that, but every time I fire up my favorite games (WoW and TF2), my computer will reboot without warning after playing for some time. Here are my specs: Win7 64-bit Core i7 950 stock Asus P6TD Deluxe 6GB Corsair Dominato...

So many games are closer than they seem! So many demos I played! Some actual games I played in full too!
Yeah, I got nostalgia all right. Sigh.
Didn't know I did play the demo of the original Diablo.
(and failed to be blown away by it.)

Q: FPS games with mutliplayer + bots

XantecIs there someplace that I might be able to find a list of FPS games with multiplayer gameplay similar to the Battle Field series that also supports bots (like single player mode in BF2, but multi-player). Some friends and I would like to be able to play together (on the same team) versus the comp...

Q: Effectively dealing with Gargoyle in Demon's Souls

zedwarthI'm having problems with the Gargoyles in world 3-2. I'm a Royal class and I tend to rely on magic. When the Gargoyles are far enough away can take them down with several shots from Soul Arrow, but they're getting really close to me and taking me out with their swords. My shield doesn't seem t...

So, can someone explain to me the habit of using an ellipsis instead of a period...like to kind of break up every sentence...keeps on going, doesn't really ever stop...until maybe I guess I run out of things to talk about...
Oh man. Kevin Y barely waited at all for a reply on meta to ask that redstone golf question. Oh well, I guess it's cool.
 
5:29 AM
Nah, I asked it after Fabian's reply.
I'm guilty of abusing the ellipsis...
 
lol redstone golf, awesome
 
Well, sweet.
I just hope the mods approve is all.
But it is a valid question so I'm sure it'll be cool.
 
The only thing I'm worried about is that there aren't enough people on Gaming.SE who know their redstone well enough.

Intelligent Design, Creationism and Science

Proposed Q&A site for those who either believe in God and intelligent design, and have questions, or those who don't, and have questions about what we who do believe, believe. Also for discussing/asking about the science of it. Not for arguments (civil debates are fine).

Currently in defintion.

Q: How does a SE site in beta grab the attention of a dev when support tickets / bugs are reported that we can't answer?

marcogCode Golf is in private beta. A user has reported a support question that I don't believe we as normal users can answer. What is the procedure for getting the attention of a dev or whoever the right person is to attend to it? Also, now that I'm here: can someone attend to it?

Q: Borderlands - Team Recharge Delay (soldier class mod): What does it mean?

fortranHi, I have found this soldier Leader Class Mod: What does the -20% Team Recharge Delay stand for? Is it a good thing or a drawback of the mod? I guess it should be something like the Deploy Skill (that reduces the cooldown time of the scorpio turret) for all the team, but I'm not sure.

Q: Why there is only 12 Wii Demos?

I know that there is not much Wii games, but 12 demos looks like nothing when you compare it to how many demos are available for xbox360 or ps3. One of the reason might be that there are...

@Mana 2k+ers can't get rep from edits
because their edits are no longer subject to approval
(afaik)
 
@badp The limit for rep-gain is only 1k
 
@Fabian yes, which means you won't get rep for your 501st approved edit

@badp WHAT. :/
 
@Mana THAT. :\
 
My totally selfish intentions for editing, ruined!
jk I don't really care that much.

Q: How do I hit the worms weak point for massive damage at the end of Chapter 2?

LessPop_MoreFizzJormungandr, the boss at the end of Magicka's Chapter 2, has me stymied. Vlad, who has assured me that he is not a Vampire, before running off, informed me that this worms weak point is his head. Well, that's all well and good, but I can't reliably hit his head. What I'm doing so far: I can st...

 
5:34 PM
Borderlands is another well-known FPS-RPG game.
 
I expect a good shooting experience, just like any FPS. I bought Fallout3 thinking it as FPS-RPG, but it is just hell rpg
 
You could argue that the new fallout games fall into this category as well
New Vegas has a much better shooting experience than fallout 3 FWIW
THey spent a lot of time improving the quality of the iron sights
 
nah,.. Fallout is bad, it is NOT fps, i had to shoot 100 times on heads to kill
 
Deus Ex also has a lot more shooting, although its controls are slightly outdated.
 
What about borderlands?
 
5:37 PM
Hmmm. There's definitely a lot of shooting in Borderlands, but it's more similar to a Fallout-type game than Deus Ex
 
Deus Ex is very old, i just can not play it
 
That's fair.
You probably wouldn't like System Shock either, then
 
@Mana Which is a shame, because System Shock 2 is one of the greatest games ever made
 
It really is.
 
You might like Bioshock though
as far as FPS games with some RPG elements
 
5:40 PM
Yeah, Bioshock was really good too.
 
Just note that rather than shooting guns, you're mostly shooting ELECTRICITY from your BARE HANDS.
 
Yeh, there was enough talk about bio shock
LOLZ
FPE
E for electricity
 
Mass Effect 2 isn't an FPS but it mixed shooter and RPG elements in a pretty amazing way

Q: How to save in Magicka?

pootzkoI thought these checkpoints are some kind of auto-saving, but ater I exited the game and wanted to continue, I had to go from the beginning... Is this some sort of a bug or what? When does the game save your position? Because I don't plan on going through the whole game in one shot... these days ...

 
Although being a Bioware game, much more emphasis on the RPG as opposed to the shooter
 
5:43 PM
Well, i am listing FPS-RPGs
1. Borderlands
2. Bioshock
3. Deus Ex
4. System Shock 2
I am pretty impressed by gameplay videos of Borderlands
 
Borderlands is pretty entertaining for a while
It's better if you get some friends to play with you online, though.
 
I like that Vlad always informs me that he is not a vampire.
 
Yeah, i got friends to play with :)
 
it reassures me.
Makes me feel safe, knowing that my mentor and guide isn't going to suddenly try to drink my blood or anything like that.
 
:(
 
5:49 PM
@Mana Why :(?
 
I feel as though you're being misled @LessPop.
Just a hunch.
 
Why would Vlad mislead me?
I mean, it's not like he's a Vampire... Now them... they're deceptive sorts.
 
Yeah, that's true. That's true.
:( I'm confused at your rollbacks
WHAT DID I DO WRONG falls on knees, cries
 
nothing, I just pres'd wrong butan

@badp couldn't you wait with your downvote? You had such a lovely rep...
 
@Oak I tried checking if I could get 1 rep from recalc, but no such luck.
 
6:01 PM
So, I totally just got what Grace meant in that one edit by "adding a better tzenes flavour". That's awesome.
 
"We shall boldly go where no vamp--- err, man, has gone before!"
I mean, if he was a vampire, why would he correct himself?
Clearly, Vlad is not a vampire.
 
You're right. No vampire would make that sort of mistake.
 
@LessPopMoreFizz Twilight fans are just that annoying.

The only scoped gun I remember is a Guass Rifle which I only got because of the fight with the Brotherhood with Veronica. (which I probably only survived at the time because I h...

Q: How to access the Interactive back-story by Dark Horse comics

Q: What is the melee-attack damage of a roach and how does it upgrade? Is it splash?

CrayWhen a roach comes directly next to a unit or structure, he smashes it with his claws (or whatever), instead of spraying acid on it. Does this attack have different damage amount than the acid attack? If so, how much, and how much does it benefit from each level of upgrades? Also, does it benef...

Q: Christian Game Designers

ChristianHave there ever been any great games that were designed by Christians that were bold about their faith? I'm not talking about small time, Christian-ghetto studio stuff that no one cares about. I'm talking about genuine masterpiece games designed by serious Christians. Have there been any yet?

 
11:30 PM
Slapping "FAIL" on a picture won't automatically make it funnier
Example:
 
@badp In this case it adds nothing. The image added the captions itself.
 
@ArdaXi Exactly.
 
Wow. Arda and badp...see eye to eye??
OoO
 
@Mana What? Nooo.... I'm sure that's not what that was.
