@RavenDreamer @GraceNote Did the Torchlight 2 grant ever happen? Wondering b/c my gaming account was pointed to an old e-mail address until 5 mins ago.
I actually managed to get the panic of everything down to 3 or lower a few days before the councils report. but I skipped two UFO abducti0ns, since they were both very difficult and I only had two squad members that were ready to go... and then it ended up sending two countries up to panic level 5.
so I lasted 5 months. If I realized that ignoring those missions would result in a two point jump in Panic I would have at least tried one of them. Oh well... life goes on...well,not for the people in my virtual EArth buuut...
A lot of my deaths at this point are due to me not paying enough attention. Like not noticing a guys cover got blown up on the previous turn, and forgetting to move him
@Sterno They should have a global stat keeper that counts things like how many times you got blown up by cars and how many times teammates kill each other.
So I've got a critically wounded soldier lying around. My medic has moved into range, but the med-pack icon remains greayed out. However, I can still select the med-pack and target the soldier, and the tooltip tells me to stabilize the target. However, pressing "Ok" does nothing. I've had this ex...
Rage-filled Rant
I've recently started playing Risen, and even tho it's an amazing game with good visuals, design, interaction and character development, very often the combat difficulty is bat-shit-crazy. I managed to keep playing untill i've stumbled upon my first giant scorpions, and fighting...
@murgatroid99 Hence my last comment. I agree that the answer still wouldn't deserve up votes, but it solves the largest problem with it, which is plagiarism.
last comment meaning:
> Ideally though, it would be best if you could summarize the important parts and then link them back to the source
@Wipqozn Yeah, I guess so. Maybe it's just the fact that I'm in school, and if someone turned in a paper with just a giant block quote and a source, the plagarism police would still go after it
I can't find a comparison anywhere... what are the advantages of the Ti version?
I noticed that the normal 650 has 384 cores, while the 650Ti has 768 cores...
How... Does this not make a ridiculously huge difference?
Also, I'm not sure if this is the right place to ask. Please tell me if it's ...
(In case it's not clear what's happening, the player is being shot at by a guard, then using shadow magic to stop time, freezing the bullet in midair. He is then possessing the guard's body, walking him in front of the bullet before the time-stop expires. The guard is then hit by his own bullet and dies.)
I found in the Runescape Wiki a list of tasks that are not associated with any area. Do these tasks work the same way the area tasks or the introductory tasks work?
In particular:
If I complete one of these tasks, will I be notified and/or rewarded?
Is there any way to view my progress in comp...
I've constructed a lava moat to help defend my house after entering Hardmode.
Unfortunately it seems like NPCs that are spawning and falling into the moat. I'm getting messages like:
Jake the Guide has arrived!
Jake the Guide was slain!
How can I stop them from committing suicide in...
The archylte steppe gate seems incapable of fully resetting all story related events.
i reset it and get the initial hunter cutscene. then the rest of the area acts as though i've defeated faeryl even though i did a time reversal.
is there some trick to this? if not then this is a bug, as the tim...
@pixel The problem is that the content linked to was changed enough that the question is now irrevocably obsolete. I want to delete it, and I'd like to get a badge out of it. I'll probably delete it soon anyway
At the bottom right of the screen, there is a red or yellow alien icon for each alien that the currently selected soldier can see. Occasionally, when a sniper is selected, some of these icons have a yellow reticle on top of them.
What does this mean?
I main support, usually opting for poke supports such as Lulu and Sona or aggressive supports such as Blitzcrank and Leona. Since the various Regional Finals, however, I've begun to encounter support Zyras in my bot lane.
This is a very difficult lane for me. I can't establish lane dominance, si...
@agent86 First they came for the ephebophiles, then they came for the creepy high school teachers, now you are coming for the plagiarism police, what will you jackboots try to silence next?RON PAUL 2012
@RavenDreamer Do you have the ability to clear an accepted answer? I want to delete an out of date answer, since the question has a better (and higher scoring!) answer, but I can't because it's accepted.
There is a respawning giant who is loading the boulders into the system, and there's also a giant throwing exploding balls onto platforms on the top of Sen's Fortress. Somewhere around that area you can see another giant kind of in the back. How the hell do you get to him?
I found no way from l...
E-Tech guns are quite rare and I've only seen one E-Tech gun of certain types, so I'm not even sure, after >100 hours play, I've seen all of the varieties (much less understand how they all work, I rarely use them).
What are the varieties of E-Tech guns and what's special about each? For instanc...
When I start up games like modern warfare 3 or The walking dead, my character spins continously. It seems the mouse always wants to be moving to the right continuously.
This is only happening in games. I dont know if its related, but I can't click and drag to select text in the URL bar, but I ca...
I'm playing little big planet on ps vita. And when I see place for sticker its always a problem to find required one. Is there any tool in game to help? Because find it in huge list is an issue.
Maybe they are categorized in some reasonable way?..
I finally managed to sit down and play some XCOM Enemy Unknown, and everything works brilliantly save one strange graphic issue. In the game's various segments that have more of a cutscene look, usually when talking to someone in the base during the tutorial, I am seeing strange color bleed issue...
--------------------------- Bunny Must Die: Chelsea and the 7 Devils --------------------------- Run in Widescreen mode? --------------------------- Yes No Cancel ---------------------------
What is widescren mode? Why are you asking me with message boxes
What's with the games and their silly irrelevant technical questions? Why can't games pose important questions like, say, "Show genitalia? [Yes] [No] [Hell No!]"?
I can't find UFOpedia in the new XCOM.
Is it there at all? If it is, how do I access it?
If not, then where can I see things like for example detailed stats for weapons, armour and aliens?
So the order of the actions are different for the different classes. Luckily "fire" is always on 1, but I'd like "overwatch" to always be on key 2.
Now it changes between 3 and 4 depending on the current type of soldier. Actions that are the same for all classes should always be mapped to the s...
A soldier fires rocket or throws a grenade not directly at aliens, but at car they are using for cover. Will it still count towards this soldier's kills?
Man, Bunny Must Die's control feel like mystery meat
Sometimes you're air-kicking, sometimes you're spin attacking, sometimes you're jumping on deadly spikes instead of getting killed, sometimes you do back-dash-attacks, most of the time I'm stuck attacking when I want to jump and all of the time I have no idea what I'm doing.
Also for some reason sometimes I press Z to attack and C to jump, other times I press Z to jump and C to attack
@MartinSojka I have no idea really. The only reason I can think of is you can't jump or move while attacking and for some reason that messes my mind up? Mayyybe? I have no idea.
Please help,

@iber I personally think it'd be on-topic, but I doubt you'd get a good answer here, and I have a feeling you might get some grief about the question from our more… stricter community members
Arqade generally does well with questions that can be answered by anyone who's proficient with a game, but not with questions that require an answer from a very small subset of the game's expert population, which is what you'd need to answer a question like that
user2334
you're welcome to try, though! Caveat emptor and all that
It definitely can when the wall is created by the monster.
When it's regular wall the result is not clear. I can't see the monster. Sometimes I can't see the numbers popping out either.
I mean can anyone confirm this with reference?

My friends tell me you have to have a Vehicle Equipped but I've tried it more than twenty times and it doesn't work.
Just curious?
I am not even sure if it's legal or not per Blizzard's rules. The game is boring without it.
