I wish mass effect would hurry up and get here, I'd productive the crap out of it.
 
@YiJiang if I did that all day, I'd have a massive headache.
I prefer my current plan of being really still instead
 
@agent86 Neckache
 
4:07 PM
So... Mass Effect 3 is one of the best games I've ever played...

Q: After Reclaiming a Fortress, can't claim leftover animals

SilfheedI recently reclaimed a fortress that got wiped out by a goblin ambush, and everything is going well except that there are a bunch of Yaks and Buffalo that belonged to the previous tenants are now roaming throughout my fortress that I can't select for a Pasture, nor do they show up for butchering,...

Q: Where is the wandering magician?

Ashley NunnI downloaded the latest update, and now the loading page mentions the "new wandering magician" I can apparently have at my Street Fair. I looked at the booths, all of Snoopy and Charlie Brown's friends, and the landscape items, and I can't seem to see the magician anywhere. I would really lov...

 
Anyone speak Skyrimian?
I'm fighting Odahviing and got him trapped. Whenever I free him though, he goes berserk and om nom nom's everyone. But I am supposed to ride him
Cancel that..

Q: How can I talk to Odahviing again?

StrixVariaI have trapped Odahviing in Dragonsreach, and it seems that I must free him so that I can ride him to the next dungeon. The problem is, every time I free him, everyone else in the room starts attacking him. Since the Jarl (who is invincible) is in the room, and the dragon itself is invincible, t...

Guys, I thought this was valuable to capture since we've already got two questions/answers that require you to do it, and I'm betting we'll end up with a few more, but I wasn't sure whether or not it was appropriate. If it's bad, let me know and I'll delete it:

Q: How can I edit coalesced.bin?

SternoI've seen that I can tweak my game by editing files like bioinput.ini and bioengine.ini, but I couldn't find these files anywhere. They seem to be part of another file called coalesced.bin, and I don't know how to edit it. I want to do this so that I can tweak some graphics settings and set up so...

 
@Wipqozn oh dear lord
 
@badp Isn't it wonderful?
 
@Wipqozn oh dear lord
 
@OrigamiRobot is happy since he thinks it will make it easier to make the rest of the bronies switch over to gir pony gravatars.
@badp I think that means you like it.
Excellent.
 
@Wipqozn oh dear lord
@Wipqozn oh dear lord
 
4:27 PM
You know, @badp, we still need a Spike.‌​..
 
I like that my most viewed ME3 question is one of my lowest scoring.
 
@YiJiang that too :D
 
Oh my. Keep ITG is currently in the lead by 1 vote.
 
@Wipqozn Better?
 
@RonanForman Slightly.
 
4:36 PM
I can't vote :D
 
@agent86 Oh, that's true.
 
Also, @TimStone aren't you happy to see the pattern of incredibly low effort answers getting the most upvotes?

Q: Does buying models and fish do anything except waste my money?

Fredy31I'm just wondering if buying the models and fish on the Citadel will get me anything, except a hole in my virtual budget of Spectre.

 
Well, if there is a tie @agent86, you could just act as the tie breaking vote then.

Q: How can I edit coalesced.bin so that I can use cheats and graphics tweaks?

SternoI've seen that I can tweak my game by editing files like bioinput.ini and bioengine.ini, but I couldn't find these files anywhere. They seem to be part of another file called coalesced.bin, and I don't know how to edit it. I want to do this so that I can tweak some graphics settings and set up so...

 
@LessPop_MoreFizz how is this different from any other day on StackExchange? :P
 
@LessPopMoreFizz you seen the new and improved Scroll of Resurrection program for WoW?
 
@RavenDreamer neg.
 
Free Cataclysm, free level 80 character, 7 days of free game time.
 
@RavenDreamer Cool. So when it's free mists, I'll check it out. :P
(No, I probably won't.)
 
4:41 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Some of us have never played Cata :P
Yeah, I hear ya.
 
@RavenDreamer See, the problem with a free level 80 character and free cataclysm
Is that the best part of cataclysm (at least, that can be experienced in 7 days), doesn't require cataclysm, or a level 80 character.
 
@Wipqozn Am I seeing what I think I'm seeing? Did @StrixVaria step up and join us? O.o
 
Heh.
Okay, back to ME3. I need to beat it so I don't accidentally spoiler myself.
 
@Tristan 'step up'? More like fell before the onward and incessant march of bronydom.
 
haha omg, anyone watching the pro monobattles?
 
4:44 PM
@LessPopMoreFizz Not all bronies are the perpetual virgins the Internet makes them out to be.
 
@Tristan Who said anything about perpetual virginity?
I certainly didn't. Merely that the whole thing is fucking stupid.
 
@LessPopMoreFizz Have you seen the show?
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I'm sure you know this because of your vast knowledge about the show and community
 
@Tristan Yes, I've been... subjected to a half a dozen episodes.
@murgatroid99 And have enough friends and acquaintances that have become part of the community to have some knowledge of it.
 
yay, more fights over a tv show
 
4:46 PM
I'm not hear to fight about it.
 
just what this place needed.
 
If you hadn't noticed, I generally just keep my mouth shut when the subject comes up.
 
@LessPopMoreFizz I'm not try to argue about it either, I'm just saying to each their own. I was gonna say don't knock it til you've tried it, but you did watch it, and it wasn't your cup of tea. So I will now promptly shut up. =) On another note: was that your memorial wall in the ME3 pic?
 
@Tristan Nope.
 
whew, 7 more to +5 for the console rank. I'm somewhat surprised at how fast this is going.
I guess there's more activity and therefore more upvotes around.
 
4:50 PM
@LessPopMoreFizz Oh okay. I was going to feel bad for you for having to limit your squad that much. lol
 
@Tristan Yes.
 
@Tristan Wait, you mean people use squads other than EDI/Liara?
 
@LessPopMoreFizz I've used Garrus and Tali for the entire trilogy. =P
 
naptime's approaching, so maybe I can get some more game in :D
 
@Tristan Sounds like a squad that has trouble dealing with Armor.
 
4:52 PM
@Wipqozn So... We have all 6 represented on the site?
 
@Tristan Yes.
 
@LessPopMoreFizz I have incendiary ammo, Garrus has armor-piercing ammo. We do alright. Throw in one of Tali's drones and it's a four man squad!
@Wipqozn My day is complete.
 
@Tristan I find ammo powers to be merely okay against Armor. I much prefer having access to Incinerate or Warp.
(Part of this may be that my head is still kind of stuck in ME2, where my strategy amounted to 'get everything on the field down to a health bar as fast as humanly possible, then kick the shit out of them with biotics.')
I like being able to get rid of those extra bars ASAP. They frighten me.
 
I really need to remember to pick a bonus power, I think I have access to a couple
 
@LessPopMoreFizz Fair enough. I use a lot of +Weapon Damage gear and upgrades, so things go down fairly quickly. The exception being Banshees but I use warp/disruptor ammo for those... I do regret playing a soldier though.
 
4:59 PM
@agent86 I took Slam, but kinda regret it. Need to find something that synergizes more with the way I play my Vanguard.
 
Did the new event finish?
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I've found my Shockwave power is pretty badass against almost everything. Nothing quite like doing a bit of damage with my chakram launcher and then shockwaving them into tiny little cerberus giblets
@Gigili the mass effect 3 event? No, it ends in about 13 more days.
 
Holy crap, Banshees.
 
@agent86 I'm actually really underwhelmed by Shockwave this time around. I loved it in ME2, but in 3 I'm finding it just doesn't do enough for me.
@RavenDreamer Shotgun them in the face.
 
Holy. Crap. Banshees.
Note to self: Do not charge them. It is instant death.
 
5:09 PM
????
 
@agent86 Um, the one which will start in 2 hours. I don't know what it is/was, I just registered! I better cancel my registration.
 
@Gigili do you mean Game On?
 
We're playing League of legends today.
 
@agent86 Uhum, yes.
 
@Gigili as ronan noted, they'll be playing League of Legends today. I think there's a special chat room as well.

 SE Game On!

TF2 server is TF2.stackgaming.com Minecraft server is mine.sta...
 
5:13 PM
Yeah, I was there and I noticed it finished.
 
@Gigili the last message in the room is from 6 days ago :)
which would have been the last event last Sunday
 
:D
@agent86 Sorry for being silly!
 
if you don't have League of Legends installed though, and you want to participate, you should probably get on installing it. I don't think it's a fast install.
 
I'll try to do it now, thank you.
 
@RavenDreamer I reiterate: Shotgun in the face.
 
5:17 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz The last teammember in this multiplayer match has been fighting a banshee solo for 10 minutes
 
@RavenDreamer Tell him to shotgun it in the face.
 
Those things are resilient.
 
@RavenDreamer Clearly, he is not hitting it in the face.
 
8 down, 8 to go.
I'll teach those colossus whose boss! How dare they sit around, resting peacefully, until I came along to try and kill them!
 
@Gigili It might be a good idea to get mumble too, as that's what we use to talk. The server is mumble.stackgaming.com
 
5:22 PM
@RonanForman Thank you.
 
Why are Pancheros burritos so good?
 
Also, I want a pita for supper, but I'm also lazy.
This is quite problematic.
 
Any kirby fans in?
 
Whoa, this will take more than expected. I'll join you next week, hopefully. Thank you @agent86 and @RonanForman.
 
@Gigili It's a heck of a download yeah.
@Gigili And remember to join the NA server. (Accounts are restricted to 1, but you can have more than one account.
Ouch! I stood up, remembered I hurt my ankle, experienced pain then sat down.

Q: Does the Infiltrator's time dilation effect apply to all Scoped Weapons, or only Sniper Rifles?

LessPop_MoreFizzSo, with the return of weapon mods, I'm able to buy scopes to improve the long range performance of my small arms like Pistols and SMGs. Better yet, there are some awfully cool unique Pistols out there, like the Scorpion which offers some unique utility if you don't need a Pistol as a primary we...

Q: Do new resources appear on used tiles?

harry1875As the eras keep advancing and new resources show up the free land becomes always smaller and the used tiles cover almost the whole world.

Q: Realm Of Empires ? What is it about?

Sandra SmithWhat is the point of the game Realm Of Empires ? What is the general game mechanics ?

 
@RonanForman He was awesome in SSB; does that count?
 
You'd have to know the game's music.
 
I dunno why my shares doesn't seem to register for the Mass Effect contest
 
@Fredy31 They need 5 clicks, and they need to be on sites outside of SE.
 
oh
 
5:36 PM
It can be multiple links (of the same question), and they'll all count for the same total.
 
So if i shared a Q on G+ and Twitter, if someone clicks both, it counts sperately?
 
@TylerShads I think they need to be unique IPs.
 
Not sure of that shrug everything I've asked/answerd, I have done that and have gotten enough shared (minus 1) for Fleet Admiral
 
Can anyone tell me whether or not it's worth it to go with an engineer in Mass Effect?
 
Kinda depends on your preference of playstyle, does it not?
 
5:43 PM
@LessPop Yeaaah :/
 
@LessPopMoreFizz You seem to be one vote from Admiral
 
@Mana In the original? or in 3?
 
@LessPopMoreFizz Oh, I read that wrong, nevermind. doh
 
@Sterno 24/35, not 34/35. I lost a bunch of upvotes to tampering stuff.
Technically I should not be General atm.
 
Everything is very similar to ME2 as far as how they play, so if you played one in 2, you'll like it in 3
 
5:44 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Original, but I'm planning on sticking with the same class throughout all three games.
 
I lost a bunch the other day for the same reason. Wonder who is doing it. Talked to my friends and none of them claim to have done it
 
@Mana Honestly, for the original game, I'd just go Soldier and then change in ME2.
2 and 3 play so dramatically differently from 1 it's not even funny.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Okay.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz something against soldiers in ME2? (has gone soldier the whole way through)
 
@TylerShads No, not something against per se, but if @Mana is expressing an interest in playing something else, it's best to do it in 2 and 3. In 1, Soldier is just such a dramatic shift down in headaches that it's worth doing.
 
5:45 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz that is something i cant decide, if i like 2/3's style better than 1 or not...definitely the lack of the mako helps
 
Being out of town Friday-Sunday is slowing me down. @Agent86 is overtaking me!
 
@TylerShads I'd say I prefer 1 for overall playstyle, but no Mako and the balance improvements to not-soldiers definitely make 2&3 come close.
 
I missed grenades in 2 and was glad to see them come back in 3
 
I played 1/2 on 360 and felt 1 was a bit clumsier but also much more of a challenge than 2
 
@LessPop Hmm...I seem to vaguely remember dilation on a weapon I didn't expect...but I used the sniper rifle for almost the entire game, so might be misremembering...on phone at relative's house now though, someone will probably beat me to checking. :P
 
5:49 PM
however, I'm tainted by PC now, playing 3 and my comp loads things so fast I cant even see the scene, compare that to the endless elevators and I'm having a hard time wanting to pick up 1 again :)
 
@TylerShads Oh god elevators.
 
Can a mod move this to meta?
 
I'm sure ME1 will be on a Steam sale for like $5 some time. Just pick it up for PC then

Q: Would like to create a tag for a game - is this ok? can someone help?

Greg BalaA community of Realm of Empires players (www.realmofempires.com) would like to use this stackexchange for their Q&A site and we where thinking of creating a tag that would group all those questions. First of all, is that an appropriate use of this site? I see a lot of game specific tags but ...

 
PC version was loads better than the console version
 
5:51 PM
@Sterno you mean origin
shudder
 
@TylerShads ew
 
Why did people not migrate that?
 
Okay, which one of you 5 failures didn't click the migrate button.
 
lulz
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Surely it needs to be 3, as it picks the most popular. So me and you were the only ones who did.
 
5:53 PM
A mod can just reopen and then migrate
 
@TylerShads What, Steam doesn't sell ME1 anymore?
 
@Sterno I just assume since Origin, steam doesn't have any ea games
 
No, they do.
 
Then I am utterly wrong ^^
 
I clicked to migrate. Does it really need all 5 people to do it though? 3 isn't enough?
 
5:59 PM
huh...I could've sworn they took all EA games off of steam

Q: Should I upload intel from Mass Effect Infiltrator immediately, or wait until I need the Galactic Readiness?

MBraedleyI bought Mass Effect: Infiltrator to help ease ME3 single player. Is there any advantage to uploading intel as I get it? I know that uploading it early means that my readiness will slowly drain away, but I'm wondering if uploading a bunch at a time decreases the bang per buck, so to speak. Als...
