Q: Rename [creeper-world-3-ae] → [creeper-world-3-arc-eternal]

ThunderforgeNow that we have 35 characters in our tag limit, I'd like to suggest renaming the tag for Creeper World 3: Arc Eternal as follows: creeper-world-3-ae → creeper-world-3-arc-eternal

 
ayy total level 900

Q: What was the name of this arcade game from the 1990's?

Jason RThis was a side-scrolling beat'em up with a maximum of two players. Characters could perform special moves like in street fighter using similar joystick and button combinations such at the Ryu's Fireball or Guile's Flash Kick. Some of the defeated enemy robots could become playable characters...

Q: What features of Gravity Rush 2 are no longer going to be available?

Memor-XSo I've had Gravity Rush 2 for a while and was waiting for all the DLC before I started it. when I did a couple of weeks ago I got an announcement in it that the online services were going to be discontinued in mid July (the message was saying how the shutdown date was being pushed back to then)....

 
@Ash I'm now on a much smaller plane that doesn't have a business class, which is what I was in on the first plane.
 
user15026
@MBraedley I am no longer on a bus
 
Business class was nice. Might have to do that again.
 
Ave

Just bought splatoon 2 uwu
 
1:55 AM
this is a very interesting video
 
@Ave what is your backend in
 
are you using uvloop
(just curious)

@quartata no
apparently

Q: SMP friendly flying machine elevators

Carter RayI built a flying machine elevator to take me up a few blocks on my server. It works some times but often I fall through the block and suffocate. The one that I have built is Mumbo Jumbo’s design. Does anyone know of one that is more reliable?

 
Ave
second splatoon game and cheaters alreayd
 
rip
 
Ave
67%-16.6%
yeah ofc
nintndo i want a refund
 
Cheaters? Really?
Considering how much of a pain in the ass it is to cheat on console I'm surprised
(i suppose as a result they also don't have any anti-cheat though...)
 
Ave
it's p2p or whatever too
 
2:56 AM
lmao
it really stumps me why modern games do this
awesomenauts did it too, and it pissed me off every time I even saw the words "migrating hosts"
 
I've never encountered cheaters but I also haven't played turf wars or ranked in a while
just octo expansion and salmon run
 
Ave
I'm playing turf wars because I didn't get expansion (yet)
and salmon run is not finding any matches or wahtever
 
Hmm that's weird, it should be open unless you're in a different region or something
or unless you need to be a certain level or something
 
Ave
I might simply be not looking at the right place
 
There's also the base single player stuff which is pretty good too
 
3:05 AM
i watched a speedrun of that at GDQ, it surprised me
then again, I suppose nintendo would never make a bad singleplayer campaign, that's what they're good at
 
I can't wait for octo speedruns
NO SKIPS octo runs of course
 
Ave
is it bad if I am seeing some game design flaws on splatoon
 
user15026
@Ave Sometimes I think you look too hard for that sort of thing almost
 
Ave
I'm not, no.
 
user15026
It just feels like you're constantly pointing out flaws in things and it's kinda...offputting a little
 
Ave
3:11 AM
whatever.
 
user15026
Just a thought
 
Ave
I keep losing because everyone has better weapons than I do, which are weapons I can't buy due to my level. You'd expect matchmaking to solve that but nope, apparently putting a level 1 person against a level 44 person is totally okay. There are some game mechanics that weren't explained on the tutorial that I'm being forced to figure out myself (such as clicking the right joycon joystick) etc etc etc.
that's all I'll say, though i could go on.
(and guess what the first match after I got a decent weapon, we won)
 
yeah splattershot jr is... kind of just ok lol
ink armor is really good as a special though
but there are way better ones with ink armor

Q: What are the two secret achievements in PewPew 2 by Jean-François Geyelin?

iBugI have been playing a mobile game named PewPew 2 for a long time. It wasn't until recently I logged in to Google Play Games that I noticed there are two secret achievements. What are they? How to achieve them?

 
6:24 AM
ok, so its really annoying when the stupid contractors you have at max reputation sabotage your island by opening every single dinosaur enclosure at once, multiple times in a row
 
6:42 AM
@Dragonrage is this that "you're not prioritizing security enough" thing?
 
i had security science and entertainment contracts all at max happiness, and they still do it
 
ewww, thats dumb
 
yeah, its just like ok then. i now have 70+ dinosaurs running around the island because all 15 of my pens got opened at once for no reason
no idea why you thought it would be a good idea to release 6 velociraptors, a t rex, and like 20 other carnivores into the public
 
Maybe it's a scripted event or something?
 
i dont think its scripted when it happens 3 times in like 20 minutes
 
6:47 AM
ah
 
and there is nothing in any of the quests or anything to lead you to think it should happen
just bad game design
 
@Dragonrage yeah this is what that bad review was complaining about
 
like, i get if i had one contractor at zero, that they would try and sabotage something, but when i have all at max and my entire park is sabotaged with no warning
and i only get one helicopter per ACU facility that can actually tranquilize dinosaurs, so having 70+ dinosaurs running around is basically impossible to deal with
 
I mean, it pretty much is what happens in the first JW movie, so I wouldn't be surprised if it was intentional
 
just because it happens in the movie doesnt mean it should be in the video game if it is inherently bad game design
 
6:51 AM
@Chippies no, you would get #VALUE or something. Array formulas can return entire rows or matrixes. It's like an extended expert mode or something.
 
random artificial difficulty does not make a game interesting

J. ChangAna does damage over time rather than instant damage. If she attacks the same target, will her DPS drop?

Q: Does the damage from Slow Times rune 'Time Warp' stack with multiple Slow times?

ChildishforlifeIn Diablo 3, if an enemy is in 2 or 3 overlapping Slow Times, will the 15% damage taken increase rune stack to 30% or 45%? Or are the mobs only experiencing 1 debuff to increase their damage taken by 15%?

 
Ave
Now that I have a decent weapon, I actually quite enjoy this.
I constantly end up at the top of the team. Splat roller is hella OP.
 
10:02 AM
@Ave Yeah rollers are great for turf war

WHY BACK IN MY DAY...
In any case, Mario Tennis Aces this week
I wonder if @Unionhawk is picking it up
 
@Wipqozn I probably will. I'm too impatient to wait and confirm that the online is fixed.
 
11:54 AM
@Exeggutor Excellent
To be honest you won't even need to wait that long. I got not plans Friday night, and I'll probably be playing it before you're even done work, so I can let you know.
Unless you work from home and pick it up midday or something
Which reminds me
 
Oh, yeah, if you're going to be home early let me know how it is.
I'd be picking it up on the way home from work at the earliest.
 
@Exeggutor I'll likely be playing it starting around 3:30 @CurseYuukiToDamnation time, so yeha
cc @Yuuki because zeus damn it @Yuuki I was trying to say @StrixVaria time and was so confused why it wasn't autocompletiing
 
@Wipqozn I think that's 2:30 my time, which is at least 2 hours before I would be able to make it to the store.
 
@Exeggutor No, 3:30 your time, 4:30 mine
 
Oh, ok.
 
11:59 AM
Luckily Google can tell me the time in StrixTopia
First thing I'll do is play online too, so I'll let you know after a few games.
 
@Wipqozn Thanks.
For now I've actually been having a ton of fun with Trials Fusion, one of the free PS4 games this month.
Want to get some more of that in before playing a new game anyway.
 
12:16 PM
oi oi
a PSN'er!
GET ON XCOM2. DIE LIKE ME.
 
@djsmiley2k I have already played it on PC and am not a big fan.
 
:O
You died?
 
I don't think I actually played long enough to lose.
I didn't like it pretty much off the bat.
Games that are designed to increase your stress levels are not really for me.
 
Ah ok :)
 
Trials Fusion is actually really close to an ideal game. Skill game, really quick runs once you know what you're doing, really quick to retry once you fuck up.
 
12:26 PM
except when your controller doesn't work with it, like mine.
 
I mean, if you actually have a faulty controller then a game like that would be obviously unplayable.
Never had any trouble with my PS4 controllers, though.
 
@Wipqozn probably
 
12:46 PM
@Unionhawk buy it and be cool like me

Q: why won't my Xbox 360s start up on the TV even though the Xbox is on?

Tea PeaGood Day I have strange problem with my Xbox360s console. I have tried all types of solutions such as : removing my hard drive, USB's A/V cable, HDMI cable and my Kinect. I have blew dust off you can name it. When I switch my console on with my controller , the power adapter turns green ,the ...

 
@Ave :| did you get a decent weapon after just three hours
 
level 3 doesn't take too long, I think the level caps are lower
you get into splattershot regular at level 2 as well which is pretty good in turf war
My turf war weapon of choice, the aerospray mg unlocks at level 6
 
Ave
1:14 PM
@ASCII-only I was sleeping
 
@Wipqozn Millenials are ruining Bridge stars
 
Millenials ruin so many thing that they're ruining ruining things.
 
1) with the exception of baby boomers (which refers to a measurable event that happened) all generation terms are dumb and arbitrary 2) this entire room except like, @Ave and @Sterno would be considered millenials or something
 
@Unionhawk except Ave?
 
@ASCII-only Too young I guess.
 
1:23 PM
yeah I think millenial is technically people in the vicinity of 20 and 35 or something like that
 
but wikipedia says "early 1980s-early 2000s can be considered millennials" (well, kinda)
so even I could be considered a millennial so basically the entire room can be considered millenials
 
Either way it's just a marketing thing
the concept of millenials is stupid
 
In marketing it means "people born in the 80s and early 90s" and everywhere else it means "damn kids who should get off my lawn"
 
@Unionhawk well it's not like generation naming can be well defined (i.e. not stupid)
 
@ASCII-only yeah the only one that is well defined like I said is baby boomers, which is actually tracked by the census because that was a measurable thing
 
1:26 PM
So I'm taking another crack at Final Fantasy XV, and I think it's going to stick this time. But dang the combat doesn't make sense to me. At level 17, I was able to kill a level 32 thing. At level 37, I got absolutely rekt by a level 30 thing.
 
also clearly this is the one and only source of generation terms
@Unionhawk then technically the millennials ("echo boomers") would count as well? (source: wikipedia)
 
yeah and they usually make a lot of money selling books or some shit
about how this new generation is more self obsessed than ever and this is how you sell things to them or whatever the fuck
 
@Fluttershy The combat in FF15 was really shallow for me.
 
@Unionhawk For a moment I was confused with the Wikipedia quiz show called Citation Needed from the Technical Difficulties
 
user15026
1:36 PM
I have successfully boxed up my cat all by myself without getting scratches!
 
@Nzall They do have to clarify specifically which patreon they are so that might be the other one
 
@Exeggutor It's really hard to keep track. I blame millenials.
 
2:01 PM
@Exeggutor It seems that way, tbh. But I guess part of the depth comes from trying to most efficiently dole out damage with back attacks and link strikes and whatnot.
 
@Wipqozn Ooo, I can't wait.
 
@Yuuki I forgot you owned a Switch
Mostly because you don't own a PS4
 
I've been trying to play it more often after kinda leaving it alone after basically finishing Atelier.
 
I barely played mine after Mario Odyessy
but that's not unusual for me
I do a lot of PC gaming. Just a larger collection to draw from. More variety.
 
I've basically unlocked the best ending, I just think I'm bugged on this particular part of 100% completion.
 
2:22 PM
@Yuuki you picking up mario aces on friday then?
 
me & some random sombra with the dream combo. peep the time remaining https://t.co/QVLz9cDdHf
 
@Wipqozn Unless my local Target sells out, yeah.
 
@Yuuki Awesome. I need to get your Switch details.
Did you play the online demo ?
 
@Wipqozn Nope.
@Unionhawk My favorite Sombra combo is the one where D.Va throws her ult in front of a Reinhardt and all the enemies gather behind his shield and then Sombra comes from behind and ults.
 
@Unionhawk mining is pretty afk tbh. Have you tried MLM?
 
2:28 PM
@Yuuki It was a lot of fun, so I'm really excited. IT also made me really love Waluigi and power characters.
 
@Jutschge Wait, Runescape has multi-level marketing now?
 
I think I did 30-65 and 68-71 mining completely afk there
@Yuuki Yeah the more ppl you invite to the mining clan, the more exp you get!
 
I'll probably wind up playing Waluigi, Bowser, spike and boo out of the gate.. and koopa when he unlocks.
 
or something like that
 
I'm running into the same "too many fun characters" problem with mario tennis that I do with weapons in monster hunter
 
2:29 PM
(MLM = Motherlode Mine)
 
@Nzall This is shitty, even for Activision.
 
@Fluttershy You haven't seen the video yet, I take it? Because that special edition itself costs at the cheapest 100 USD
 
@Nzall ... wow
 
@Nzall I haven't seen the video, but I knew about the pricing.
 
2:37 PM
I guess this means I'll just continue to never buy call of duty
 
I have a few friends who wanted me to buy it so we could play together.
They probably don't know about this, so I'll let them know.
 
@Yuuki Same here. Told them I'm getting BF5 instead.
 
@Nzall I mean, the 100$ price tag is pretty standard now for the "ultimate/special" editions
there's usually the base edition for 60$, then there's some sort of premium edition for 80$ and then there's the ultimate edition with season pass for 100$
locking DLC behind season pass, which you can't buy separately though is new
 
@Chippies No, the cheapest version of the special editions, the Digital Deluxe Edition, costs 100 USD
there is no 80 USD version
 
@Nzall it includes the season pass though, right?
and is there a more expensive edition as well? :o
 
2:42 PM
@Chippies yeah, but it's not even close to the most expensive version
 
the 80$ editions usually are useless, they don't include season pass
just some premium items or skins or some junk
they might as well not exist at all
I can't justify buying games at full retail price anyway, 80$ CAD for base edition of a game? no thanks
I wait a year or two and get the game in humble monthly, lmao
or buy the GOTY version for 10$ or so on sale
but I guess it doesn't work well with primarily multiplayer games, gotta get those while they're hot
 
Hmm... that's a v.reddit link. There we go, fixed.

3:20 PM
@Unionhawk I just tried this and was the top player in match. I like it.
 
it's good at inking turf and at shooting people who are right next to you
and also suction bombs are good
It's got like, zero range, but it's fine
 
I need to get some new clothes for it, but my favorite set-up was Splattershot Jr. with a bunch of super charging skills.
So I could dole out Ink Armor like crazy.
I didn't really score well, but my teammates tended to die less than when I played other loadouts.
 
Honestly just go N-ZAP '85
it's probably the best weapon with ink armor
though splattershot jr's ink armor charges even faster actually
 
Hmmmm...
 
@Fluttershy Activision in general is crappy.
 
user15026
3:37 PM
@Yuuki Awwwwwwwwww birdie
 
user15026
@Yuuki Aslo this is the perfect response
 
@Frank I know. Just didn't expect them to stoop as low as they did here. They're the new EA, apparently.
 
@Yuuki I honestly never pay attention to abilities
I just go with what looks cool
which means my typical setup is aviators, leather jacket, and black boots
with dubious abilities
 
@Unionhawk We're operating under different definitions of the word cool
 
3:43 PM
OH YEAH
I did see some other sunglasses yesterday that I should have ordered
because they'd work with another setup but idk what
This setup doesn't work as well with octoling either so now idk
 
4:32 PM
@Unionhawk New headcanon for @Uni.
 
@Exeggutor Given those aviators, it's literal head canon.
 
i dont care what @Uni says, my headcanon for him will always be this
 
First day on new job: success.
 
@Arperum Yay!
 
SOmeone else in my team has a Zelda coffee cup.

> Octopath Traveler, the Nintendo Switch exclusive from the team behind Bravely Default, will not have any DLC. Why? Because it’s already a complete game, says Square Enix.
Everything I’ve read about this game says that the team is really, really proud of it.
 
I have it preordered; I'm hoping for the best.
I really liked Bravely Default until it lost its mind in acts 5-8.
Hopefully they've learned from that idiocy and have produced a game that just has the good parts.
 
TFW you send a Market Share email that's a Market Shart email
 
Today is going by sooooooooooooooooo slooooooooooooow
I'll likely be buying octopath, but I'm going to wait on some reviews first

on track for a good answer badge on MSE :)
 
6:41 PM
;:D
 
@Dragonrage hey now, if you're not careful, I might put you in one of my xcom squads.
I'll put you on the D Team (the D stands for dead)
 
@Wipqozn I feel like every one of your teams stands for dead.
 
@Wipqozn ive already been in at least one.
 
@Yuuki some teams are deader than others
Also @djsmiley2k is making me want to play XCOM
 
iirc i went down gun blazing after your incompetence got the rest of my squad killed, and i was left facing like 10 aliens or something
 
6:44 PM

whoops, Lauren is ded.
 
She probably had it coming

@Dragonrage is already kicking ass. He pierced some alien with a grappling hook, pulled him over, and then cut his throat.
 
@Wipqozn Technically, the aliens use lasers or plasma.
 
Sep 3 '17 at 18:51, by Wipqozn
And @Dragonrage also just dodged two overwatch shots so he could get a flanking shot.

In which @Wipqozn's ineptitude proves too much for even @Dragonrage to overcome

yeah, probably

@Chippies R6's system makes for some amusing gunplay.
And frustrating.
But also amusing.
 
@Yuuki I haven't played it, but it seems good
 
but, like as a commanding officer, not having a proper team assembled is kinda your responsibility
 
XCOM2 is terrible though
 
@Chippies There can be a bit of a learning curve.
 
@Dragonrage I'm on a limited budget

You do get rep on meta.

7:11 PM
@Chippies :/
 
@Yuuki I mean, it takes 10 seconds to get it, so, as long as you're here, shouldn't be an issue :P
but I'm sure many people will miss it because of that :/
 
@Chippies Yeah but I'm not going to login on my work computer.
 
@Yuuki phone maybe?
 
Eh, if it's anything like Rainbow 6's Starter Edition, I'm not going to bother.
The starter edition is terrible. It's cheaper but it takes so long to unlock operators.
 
@Yuuki it's the same thing, but meh, it's a free game that I wanted to buy when it launched
I'll take the super grindy edition for free :P

@Unionhawk I'm not old.
I wonder if @kalina considers herself old yet
Or @whateverhernameisnow
 
she did say 25 was old and I'm 24 now so
 
@Sterno To be fair, he only said that you wouldn't be considered a millennial.
 
Old is a sliding scale starting at me+10
 
She changes name too?
 
Really?
I thought she was always @kalina here
 
8:06 PM
nope
 
if @Stern'old wasnt old he wouldnt be called @Stern'old
 
But you did call me @Stern'old
which I guess means I'm not old
which isn't what the name would imply
very confusing
 
That'd be Stern'oldn't
 
less confusing now
you shouldve waited two minutes so i couldnt edit
 
Stern'oldn't'd've.
Sounds like a kid's first elf character in D&D.

did a 'very difficult' mission, didn't loose anyone

You should really play on Ironman and be a bad ass
 
ive played xcom EU on Ironman

@Wipqozn Judging by precedent, Iron Man is a bit overpowered against alien armies.
 
@Dragonrage But now you left this as proof. CHECKMATE
(athiests)
 
so if im not an atheist, im not checkmated?
 
8:49 PM
No, if you're not an athiest. Totally different thing
When I see chat flags appear, I always read "Not Sure" as "Don't Care". I should make a browser extension for that
 
@Sterno i think they count as like .25 of a invalid vote
