@Lazers I just want to head off any potential close votes by pointing to this meta question.
 
I see Valve added a new Mann Co Crate that takes a special key.
 
I got a paper hat! wheeeee
I wonder if I should post that question to r/starcraft/
 
12:35 AM
@Powerlord It hasn't
#30 is just reskinned afaik
the token name for its string mentions it being a "rarecrate"
woo, got the sign as a drop
if I were to shell out €3.7 I could also put something on it.
 
Sign?
 
@stevether TF2 has some new items you can put custom textures on.
I still think it's funny that the new Spy hat has a Spy mask of another hat on it.
 
1:00 AM
This Hat is A Spy?
So today 1.9pre4 of Minecraft, Manniversary of TF2, new update from TBoI...
Update Notes:
-fixed bug leaving a room thru a broken door
-item pickup sounds now play properly
-save system improved
-fixed music bug with boss music/ambush room music
-removed a few exploits that break the game
-prepped the game for Halloween update coming on the 31st!
"save system improved"?
There's a "save system" in the first place?

Q: Why is my cursor blinking constantly?

bwarnerI just installed the full version of Might & Magic: Heroes 6, and whether I'm in the menus or playing the game, my cursor is blinking constantly. I've tried playing with all the graphics settings, but I can't make it stop. I didn't have this problem with the demo. Is there anything I can do?

 
1:12 AM
Wasteland Angel demo, get.
You can use it with any track from Soundcloud.
Here it is with a track probably more people will enjoy.
 
1:35 AM
Hmm, anyone else playing TF2 on a mac and having crashes? I've crashed twice so far tonight...
@badp Notch was mentioning on twitter last week about making saves happen in a background thread instead of blocking the main thread; maybe that's what it means.
 
@Brant This is the changelog for the Binding of Isaac, not Minecraft
 
Oh.
That's a violation of Wipqozn's Law, isn't it?
 
Hey, if the law of gravity can be repealed, so can Wipqozn's law.
 
1:52 AM
That was a painful 3 hour lab.
 
@Mana You're painful.
So, you're going to a barcraft event this weekend @Mana?
 
Yes!
 
So what is barcraft exactly?
Go to a bar, and get them to play a live stream of some SC2 matches?
 
You hang out in a bar while a major Starcraft tournament is broadcasted.
In this case, MLG.
 
I assume you get the bar to play the tournament?
 
1:56 AM
Yeah.
 
That's cool.
 
It is!
 
Must be an odd request for a bar tender.
 
It's kind of an organized event, really.
 
Well I didn't think you strolled in there and asked the day of
 
1:57 AM
But yeah it would still be odd with the initial request.
 
one of the bottom posts there makes a good case for how to do it
Find a bar that is slow on sundays, and get a sizable amount of people committed to come. That way the bar owners are more likely to accommodate you, et cetera.
I don't drink myself, but I would love to attend something like that. I'd just drink cola or something.
Also, holy shit
 
@Mana, did you check out that Spectrogram thing?
 
Hey, BlogTO!
@Wipqozn Yeah. I don't drink either.
 
Guess not.
 
@GnomeSlice Spectogram...?
 
2:05 AM
@Mana Can you even get into a bar?
 
44 mins ago, by GnomeSlice
Here it is with a track probably more people will enjoy.
 
@Wipqozn Yup! Turned 19 this May.
 
not sure on the legal drinking age in Ontario. Nova Scotia is 19, but I believe it differs in PEI...
 
New thing just released by Soundcloud and some other people.
@Wipqozn 19 here.

Q: Better to take gold or experience in Might & Magic Heroes VI?

AprecheIn Might & Magic Heroes VI there are certain treasure chests that let you choose between gold and experience. To beat the game most easily which one should you choose early on?

 
2:08 AM
The vast majority are 19, with a couple being 18.
 
so jelly
@GnomeSlice I missed Tasha Baxter. Thanks for sharing.
Oh man...I don't want to go to bed right now, but I guess I should.
stupid lab.
 
Why?
 
Test tomorrow.
 
Ahh, sucks.
 
It's a theory test, so it's all proofs. There's not really much left for me to do to be prepared other than make sure I'm well-rested.
 
2:15 AM
@Mana Indeed.
before you go @Mana, a question
When will you be attending barcraft?
that is to say will you be here for the MLG finals?
 
Good question. Barcraft is on Sunday. When are the MLG finals?
 
@Mana I'm assuming Sunday.
So no, you will not.
I'll need to get someone here to watch the finals
@Mana, ban @Mana for this post please:
5 hours ago, by Mana
You know what's cool? NOT TF2. BLAMO.
 
I'll try and see if I can promote our site while I'm there
 
@Mana Yes.
In fact, you probably should have talked to @BrettWhite to see if you could get a few cards to hand out or something
or you can print some off yourself
Do you have a Gaming T-Shirt?
If so, you should wear it.
 
I do not. Instead, I'm going to promote Arcade Fire.
 
2:20 AM
@Mana Could you wear a T-Shirt with a picture of me instead?
 
If you had TF2 you could get a sign, a decal tool, put the Gaming logo onto it and then go around prancin' aboot in there with your sign full of promotion
 
Or Arda in his suit
 
and then get backstabbed 6,936 times by GameFAQ trolls.
 
@Mana Yes. Do this.
 
Really, I can't think of any better mascot.
 
2:21 AM
 
Hey girls...looking for gamers...? We got gamers...like this guy right here... PHOTO
BAM. EVERYONE SWOONS. EVEN THE GUYS.
 
how can you resist those eyes and charming smile?
Clearly we should all change our gravatars to @ArdaXi in his suit.
 
@Mana It's so blurry
 
AWW COME ON
The third one is supposed to be larger.
 
2:24 AM
Clearly @ArdaXi should stop sleeping and post a full size version of this.
 
aww. Stupid limit.
 
It's only, what, 5am where @ArdaXi lives? Lazy dutchmen needs to get out of bed.
 
And from the comments thread

@OctavianDamiean Moring.
 
Hello.
Not that many Modern Warfare questions. :(
I feel useless.
 
What is there to ask about Modern Warfare?
It's a point a click adventure with better graphics and a physics engine.
 
Configuration questions is actually the only thing that I can think of right now.
 
@OctavianDamiean Most of my favourite tags (, , , and so on) didn't have a question for weeks. Stop whining. :)
 
8:31 AM
:(
 
What brings you to this small bar on the outskirts on Stackexchangeier?
See that bridge by the river, that's where we get out name.
 
Being a gamer I thought I might join you guys.
 
This is the worst time to be here, hardly anyone's on.
It's annoying because it's also the time I'm most bored.
 
:D
Well later on, that is after work, I'm most likely somewhere on Crash or Crossfire or some other map planting bombs or defusing them.
 
So you're an FPS nut then.
Play TF2?
 
8:37 AM
No.
Only Modern Warfare.
On a competitive level.
 
Get out, get out now!
 
Nah, just kidding.
But don't tell @powerlord.
 
Nearly all he plays is TF2, actually most people are obsessed with it here.
 
8:40 AM
Why on earth? That game is ... well it is their choice. :D
 
... with me being one of the exceptions (I only play ArmA 2 for my FPS fix). :D
 
@OctavianDamiean I could say the same thing for MW
 
Yea true that.
 
Have you tried the battlefield beta?
 
@MartinSojka Do you know the Project Reality mod then?
Gosh sorry for the tripple ping.
Nah. I don't like BF3.
 
8:43 AM
@OctavianDamiean I read about it, yes. Not sure what to think about it yet - and in any case, there are a lot of ArmA 2 mods to check out. :D
 
@OctavianDamiean How is it different to MW? (having never player either for more that an hour)
 
Don't mind the pinging, I have sound off here anyway.
 
@RonanForman In any possible way.
 
That's basically like saying: Because.
 
Well two totally different engines.
I don't know if I need to say more than that.
Call of Duty is way more fast paced than Battlefield.
 
8:46 AM
@OctavianDamiean Portal and TF2 use the same engine, they're totaly different games.
 
Indeed they are.
Because the game concept is different.
The game concept of CoD and BF also differ but they share same theme. A military team based multiplayer.
BF for a larger scale. Say platoon scale and CoD on a squad scale.
Different pace. Different tactics.
 
I'll just take your word for it.
 
I've been playing the Call of Duty series from day one and same goes for the Battlefield series up to Battlefield 2 so you may assume that I know some stuff about it. :D
On top of that I'm (or I was) a developer at Project Reality which started as a Battlefield 2 mod.
 
Not much activity for here either, but then I assume most people just go to their web site directly for info.
 
Yea.
The forums are very active.
 
8:56 AM
That's the problem with this site, most games ahve their own forums where people go for answers.
We should try and convince now games to endorce us has the help section.
 
@RonanForman Well, those questions where I don't find answers on official or most-active fan forums, I post here. :) Unless the forums themselves are broken or suffer from mis-management, like Bethesda's.
 
glares Bethesda... dun dun dun.

Q: What was the first appearance of 3D models of humans or vehicles in a video game?

jeblWhen and where was the first 3D model of a human/vehicle implemented in games? Can you give a link to an image and/or an article?

 
@FallenAngelEyes I'd say the answer to that one is "SWG", but not sure. Would need to dig in a few MUDs. Maybe ask Raph directly where he got the idea from.... Speaking of which, let me dig through MUD-Dev archives.
 
@MartinSojka I'm not really concerned about the answer so much as whether or not the question is suitable for the site
And the fact that there doesn't seem to be a consistently enforced policy
as this question has also been closed:
-2
Q: What was the first game with physics?

Caleb PendergastWhat was the first game with 2d or 3d physics that have collisions, mass, rotational collisions, bounciness, etc.

 
1:36 PM
@FallenAngelEyes Well, that's mostly because the answer is "Pong". :)
 
user30
so that's 67% test coverage now, excellent
 
@MartinSojka Again, answers aren't really relevant here. It's more actual answerability (is that a word? Probably not) and the on-topicness
While the highest voted answer on the Meta topic deems that these questions aren't really within scope because they are not "a problem that you face," we haven't closed any of the older questions since that discussion, leaving the precedent that these questions are acceptable.
 
The thing is, this specific question is not very good because it isn't well-formed. The first games ever made already had physics (collisions like Pong or Breakout, for example). You'd have to be more specific which combinations of physics and (potentially) presentation you mean for it to have a meaningful answer.
Ok, so grepping for "resting" in the MUD-Dev archives gets me 6823 posts. Crap. :D
(Or about 20% of them)
 
We had 2 mods who commented on the meta question (@badp and @Raven) but there are still the older remaining questions, so I'm confused as to the acceptability of the questions for the site.
A blanket policy of "No, they're not applicable because they're not a problem and should be closed" (like the current game-rec policy) is very different than a policy of "accept them based on judging the individual quesetion" (like the current ITG policy) when casting close votes.
 
@FallenAngelEyes It's on topic but I doubt anybody here has the authority to make claims to this regard
and say "I know precisely who is it that made the very first X in the history of world"
 
1:48 PM
@badp Should that not be a reason for closing this branch of questions, as we are without the expertise to definitely answer and therefore can only speculate? And what about the point in Strix's answer (the highest voted) on the meta question, that these don't full under the "practical, answerable questions that you face" part of our policy?
 
@FallenAngelEyes Applied too harshly, and that discredits all "trivia" type questions.
Or, taken further, character and plot detail.
 
@GraceNote So where's the line drawn then in these cases? I don't feel like this is outlined very well, and I therefore don't feel I can cast close votes on questions concerning these topics in good faith.
Mostly because of this:

So I don't know what to do. Do we leave it as an unanswered question because we don't have the expertise to answer it? Do we close it because the class of "what was the first X" doesn't belong here? Do we decide to judge "what was the first X" questions the way we do ITG, in that we have a flexible policy based on the quality and merits of the question itself? Something else entirely?

Q: 2D Game Developing

sn0wexI'd like to ask which free game engines on Ubuntu would be the best choice to use for creation of 2D games. The engine should not be too hard to use and support multiplayer if possible. I'd use it to create games with graphics like TeeWorlds has with the combination of Inkscape ofc. Thanks

 
Some facts, like "Adventure was the first game to include Easter Eggs" can be known with certainty, but others, especially when you get to entirely more obscure traits, will be difficult to properly nail down.
We're gamers, not game researchers, so we also don't entirely stand a chance to ever learn this information on our own.
 
@GraceNote So should a new Meta question be opened to address this, should we bump the old one, or...?
 
I don't know. I'm unsure how to progress because I don't know that we have a real strong grasp of the issue.
 
My main concern is that we have an cloudy policy with cloudy enforcement, which could potentially confuse newcomers to the site when they ask these questions, receive close votes, yet see other questions in the same class remaining open.
 
2:00 PM
If we have something strong to put on the table, I would put a strong answer to the existing Meta question
 
@GraceNote Really? How can we be sure?
 
I am unsure why this is receiving close votes:
