@Arperum They really stepped up their game. I don't know if it was always this way, but Shuhei Yoshida is one of the nicest most genuine people I've ever seen that high up in a company of similar size
@BenBrocka He apparently does some pretty hilarious twitch streaming too!
He has a twitch?! I didn't know that
AAAAND Belgian politics devolved even more into mudthrowing.
He gives great presentations. Not the most well spoken but hell you have to like the guy
@Arperum how bad can it be?
18:02
@badp There are elections in may. So they all need attention. One moron decided that calling the prime minister a pedophile was a good idea.
@BenBrocka twitch.tv/gameape2001 That's his channel. He did a live stream of Outlast last month.
And now that guys mental sanity is being questioned.
@Arperum He should be the first to do so. If he's judged mentally insane he might get away with it!
@badp He'll have to stop being a politician though.
...the president of Sony Worldwide Studios' twitch name is "gameape2001"
18:04
@Arperum wat
@Arperum Berlusconi is a convicted felon. He's still about kicking up a fuss here and there. People argue on TV daily that, since he gets a lot of votes, his status really doesn't matter and blocking him just because he was definitively proven guilty is a mortal wound to democracy.
@badp I'm pretty sure mentally insane people aren't allowed to be in the government.
@Arperum No, you have it backwards. Only mentally insane people are allowed to be in the government.
@Unionhawk As long as they are not officially diagnosed with insanity.
@BenBrocka shrug The account may belong to someone else, but he was definitely streaming Outlast from it last month. :P
Google search also shows a resogun stream from him at that account
18:09
@badp He's not declared insane though.
People off TV are dumb and Berlusconi's personal party is still holding ~25% of the electorate in a stable 2nd place
@Arperum Who'd you rather have in your parliament: the insane or the convicted felon?
Regarding company PR, though... Honestly, I think getting Peter Moore was one of the smartest things EA's ever done. <_<
@Fluttershy EA did a smart PR thing?
I thought everyone hated them
@badp Neither?
@Sconibulus They've done a few, actually. Allowing refunds on digital purchases was a pretty big thing too.
18:10
@Arperum HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA
@badp Leave my dreams alone please.
@badp the question is: who DO you have in your parliament.
Goat Simulator got a launch trailer! :D And it is amazeballs.
18:31
@Fluttershy Unlike the other one, this is likely to be adherent to the actual experience
Damn I wish I knew more indies working in first person perspective to show that PS4 VR devkits for indies thing to
Be cool if Proteus did it but I don't think they've even looked at OR support yet
> To be completely honest, it would be best if you’d spend your $10 on a hula hoop, a pile of bricks, or maybe a real-life goat.
That'd be a cheap goat
Also, the game has a wiki hosted by curse.com
because fuck you that's why
Can I #Monetize #teens in this #simulation game?
18:43
err... just what happened the 24/25?
The what?
@BenBrocka #jointheconversation
@BenBrocka in-game ads. goat decal packs. energy systems. female goat dlc. horse goat expansion.
...horse goat?
@BenBrocka It's a horse with a goat mask on its head.
Like this but the other way around.
It's all very subtle social commentary.
18:55
@PanicBomb do you play Mercenary Kings?
@BenBrocka A little. I found this av when browsing the Steam prefab av list.
Ah. I really like it but don't have people to play it with. I'm on like the second or third to last set of missions
That game's in Indianapolis too, iirc. That's going to be a shitshow and a half.
@StrixVaria @Frank You guys need to get to level 70 so we can test how multiple Monks with Unity work.
Also @Fluttershy
19:10
@OrigamiRobot Probably not going to use my Monk for a while.
I do know, though, if I use my WD and have pets, they each give you a separate bonus.
I plan to get Crusader/WD to 70 and focus on them for a while.
@StrixVaria :OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
@BenBrocka I played it a little when it first went up on Early Access, but now that it's "out" I'll revisit it someday soon
I can have 5 dogs, 8 fetishes, and a gargantuan.
2
@StrixVaria I need to learn what your 80% crit skill looks like so I know when to spam LTK.
@OrigamiRobot I'll show you what it looks like when we play again.
It's pretty subtle.
Generally if you're fighting a bunch of stuff, and then all of a sudden they're all dead, then I just cast it.
19:12
I saw LTK crit for 5m damage once
> You've earned the "Enlightened" badge for Professional Gaming
SOON AL THEM GAMER MONIES WILL BE MINE
@badp ESPOOOOOOORTS
19:28
@PanicBomb The parts get really cool pretty quickly. Especially when you can mix and match bullet types, like bouncing buckshot
I just played about 2 hours of D3 with @kalina, doing bounties. My damage went from about 220k to 450k in that time, and toughness from about 2.5 million to 5.6 million
Hooray for upgrades

Q: How can I increase Experiment's production of major damage items?

KatieKThe Salve-Maker's Experiment skill will create an attack item from another kind of item in the inventory. The new attack item will be either the moderate damage item (such as Zeus' Wrath) or the major damage item (such as Parthenon's Wrath). How can I increase the rate at which major damage items...

Welp, that just happened
Started playing dota, had someone disconnect during picking, paused and waited.
He didn't reconnect so I checked his steam profile. HE WAS FUCKING PLAYING COUNTERSTRIKE GO
Wow. I just killed a unique monster on Torment and it dropped 3 legendaries and a set item
wish I'd screenshotted that
Oh. 3 of them were crafting mats/plans. Boo
@Sterno A Rift boss, or just a generic unique?
19:42
Generic unique
Almost all legendaries I found so far were crap. I got lvl 70 rare upgrades for almost every slot now, though
This just dropped.
@KevinvanderVelden In a decent online multiplayer game, when a player quits another can jump in in his place.
@badp not in any RTS and not in a moba
@Arperum I had the lvl 60 version of that, I switched now to a lvl 70 amulet
19:45
I hope you're enjoying not playing a decent online multiplayer game.
@Arperum So you suddenly love arcane enchanted now
@Sterno Didn't even think of that.
I GOT A PUZZLE RIIIIIIIING
19:47
@BenBrocka kitty :(
Kitty is fine, just befuddled
@Sterno I have one of those :)
@SaintWacko How much life does it actually drain?
@Sterno I'm really not sure, but it seems to be quite effective
I'm doing Act V on Torment on my DH with it
19:51
I just turned on damage numbers and against one of those poison trees things in Act 1 Torment 1, it is doing about 7k damage a tick
if that's converting into health, that's nice
@Sterno No +1 to all skills? What a rip off!
@LessPop_MoreFizz Oh man I'd love to watch these guys be forced to play Binding of Isaac

Q: My garrys mod addons won't load

Funnyman405Ok so my addons won't load but they're still in my folder and they load in offline mode! Grrr any help would be appreciated!

@BenBrocka I'm not sure that's a good idea.
@Arperum And that's why it's a brilliant idea
@BenBrocka I see the logic and would be watching too.
Those titles are long.
@Ullallulloo Might snatch that for Evoland. I've been avoiding RPGs but the concept is interesting
@Ullallulloo Might want to change that link so it points to the weekly sale instead of the bundle

Q: Harmugstahl spike problem

malumingeniumOkay, so I'm doing a family heirloom quest for Vilkas and it's in Harmugstahl. I've already been in there before this quest just roaming around and now, the door with 4 levers won't open. I got it open once by accident and I tries the same pattern again, but I noticed a lot of the spikes were mis...

Q: Pixelmon crash minecraft

user72918Map crashes only when pixelmon is added. Perhaps this crash is due to the size of the map. Can anyone interpret this log - thanks How could I limit pixelmon to only spawn mons near the area I'm in, assuming that's the problem? ---- Minecraft Crash Report ---- // Why is it breaking :( Time: 3/27...

@Arperum Oh god, that legendary effect is beautiful.
@SaintWacko Too old. I'd need a mod to do it.
@Yuki Yes it is.
@Ullallulloo I'm now accepting bribes.
...Coincidentally, of course.
@TimStone The penguin-like-thing has beaten you.

A SPUGSLEY APPEARS
Diablo 3 is so good now.
@StrixVaria I know. I never want to stop playing
20:22
I have like 80 nephalem rift thingies so I can do 16 of them in a row.
WHY DO I HAVE WORK TOMORROW
I have a thing to do tonight not at home so I can't play as much :(
@StrixVaria TAKE FRIDAY OFF!
@spugsley I have all next week off :P
@StrixVaria :D
This time I didn't schedule it specifically for Diablo. A planned vacation to Florida wound up not happening but I already took the time off work.
Expert is too easy for my Crusader!
@StrixVaria What's the deal with the 'targetted loot' I read about.
20:25
I'm going to try Master next time I play.

I GOT A PUZZLE RIIIIIIIING
@MichaelFrank Loot that drops for you will roll your primary stat over other possible stats, and will roll damage boosts for your skills over skills from other classes.
It won't always roll your primary stat, but if it does roll any primary stat then it'll be yours.

Q: how can you get back saved data

jason valderramaI have got really far in my second profile in skyrim,level 41 it took along time to get back to that level because i had got a game breaking bug on my last profile and i just erased it by accident and my other messed up profile. Is there anyway to get it back on the xbox 360, i beg some please te...

@Fluttershy :D
@StrixVaria Interesting!
20:29
@StrixVaria Not 100% true
I've gotten dex drops on my wizard
and str drops
@SaintWacko I think this is a bug.
I've also seen that but it's really rare.
@StrixVaria Ah, okay
@SaintWacko Hmm... what follower (if any) were you using?
@Yuki None
I was in coop with a monk
@StrixVaria It's not a bug, it still gives some variation, you cantrade these rares for other rares or something.
20:31
You're not 100% guaranteed to get your primary stat, but you're much much much more likely to. The only thing that's guaranteed is class specific items will only roll the primary stat for that class.
The ending of RoS was quite the "whoops" moment.
(I just beat Malthael)
@Arperum SPOILERS
:14524041 Could you stop the random posts? And then removing them quickly.
@Arperum There's an easy solution for that.
@OrigamiRobot Yup. I don't like it though.
20:33
@Arperum You don't like peace of mind?
Someone doesn't like Oysters?
Something's really weird about thorns.
Part of the problem with flags is that they can be invalidated by users who don't know why the flag is ocurring
2
Who don't know the history
I've seen crits for 8 million when using some combination of thorns abilities.
My active attacks can't deal even 2 million damage.
@SaintWacko welcome to 2012. We've had this problem for a while.
20:35
@SaintWacko I've send a mod flag this time. Because offensive/spam has exactly that problem.
@Arperum I did the same
@tombull89 It's 2012 again? There's still time! We can still warn them!
@RonanForman Great Scott!
user58869
@arperum it's not big and it's not clever
@Alex That's what she said.
20:36
@Alex And that's related to what?
@Arperum Just more spam
Should we just send one flag, or flag each spam post?
@SaintWacko One should be fine.
@AnnonomusPerson Okay. That's why I checked before doing anything else
user15026
....this again?
user15026
Really?
20:37
@AshleyNunn Yep :(
I wouldn't worry about it for about 30 minutes
@BenBrocka Thank you

Good, then I can go take my nap :P

I swear not having a job is turning me into an old lady
@BenBrocka Thank you.

@AshleyNunn All the cats!
Greetings all.
@AshleyNunn How'd it go?
user15026
@SaintWacko I have a friend who works for a cat rescue, you have no idea how tempted I am most of the time.
Did you whip it out?
@AshleyNunn Hehe
user15026
@DavidM I didn't even get a chance! They're not looking for anyone anymore!
20:39
@AshleyNunn That sucks.
user15026
Yeeeeeah.
@AshleyNunn :(
user15026
Alright, nap, then job applications. :D
The papers for buying my house are one step closer to a formal accord between me and the sellers! One sellers signed, the other two sign tommorrow!
@AshleyNunn I'm apparently a racist for saying that most Americans don't understand French. english.stackexchange.com/a/160134/59527
20:43
@Arperum YAY!
and D3 RoS credits are long. That took a while...
@Arperum yay! And I'm gonna go house looking tomorrow :)
@spugsley Hey! I've been on the Bridge for 10 minutes, and there hasn't been a reference to your butt! WTF?!?
user15026
@DavidM oy. and the edit! :P
@AshleyNunn Did you read my comment back?
20:45
@DavidM @FEichinger isn't here.
@Arperum Still . . .
user15026
@DavidM I did, I was amused
@AshleyNunn Was it harsh? Or well said?
Or both?
@DavidM yeah, @FEi is the butt person
Epic fail.
user15026
20:47
@DavidM I think it is good.
All of my glued joints broke in the table saw.
Had to reglue it, but that's what it will look like.
Still needs to be sanded and finished, though.
@DavidM Cutting board?
@James Hopefully.
@DavidM Kewl
@James Again, hopefully. It's my first project.
Haven't done any woodworking since High School.
(21 years ago ...)
Shit, I'm old.

DIABLO TIME
had to edit a photo first but now IT'S TIMEEEEEEEEEEE
@spugsley I wouldn't mind starting a crusader on the US server :)
@Arperum :D Have you completed Act 5 yet? I'm mostly farming Adventure mode
@spugsley I just completed Act 5 on EU servers. Don't have a character even close to beating act 2 on the US servers >_>
@Arperum awww :(
@spugsley New character? And if you start the game I think I can join your adventure game.
I want to try out crusader anyway.
20:52
@Arperum that's true :) Shall I wait for you?
@spugsley Game is launching US version :)
@Arperum yay! :D I'll wait then. I'm just going to plow through all the bounties and Nephalam Rifts in every single Act :p
@Arperum what difficulty do you think we can take?
@spugsley I don't care, I started on Master with @Frank pre-expansion. We had to skip one or two elitepacks at the beginning, and that's it.
And I don't mind difficult.
21:11
I see.
How is Adventure Mode?
Let's see if this works

Q: How can I make people like me in minecraft servers

JustinEvery time I go onto a minecraft server it just seems that people push me away. Any Ideas?

21:27
@Lazers um, follow Weaton's Law
@Lazers Pro-tip: following through on your previos question might not be a good way to make people like you in minecraft servers.
@MichaelFrank What is this, a hit list?
It looks like it!
21:35
@3ventic r... c... okay... I don't want to know more.
@badp Our main developer has a weird way of naming things...
It's a resource used to remote control other players
. . .
@3ventic ... That's exactly what I expected.
There's no fapping involved!
..unless...... let's not go there.

Oh, I thought you meant Tales of Middle Earth.
Comes with Steam.
Well it is a game rated 18+ and known for "Hot Coffee"...
Of course there will be certain animations..
Doesn't mean they're actively used though
Holy shit guys
The Humble Weekly Sale, celebrating Open Source!
21:41
I wonder why so few games have demo versions available nowadays..
@3ventic Because games used to be like $40 and now they're like $4
@3ventic There was a PAR article (I believe). Demos reduce sales, as people play it, realize they don't like the game and then don't bother purchasing it.
It's keeping me away from most games
@Fluttershy Neo Scavenger for $1, get it while it's hot.
@GnomeSlice I'm talking about the $40+ games
21:44
@3ventic shrug
I don't know, but you're right, not many demos any more.
The last one I saw was Minecraft's demo and that was released way after the game was
@GnomeSlice Gracias.
@3ventic Some demos are so short they're annoying and almost worthless. More generous demos can be games unto themselves. The demos I kept going back to all the time usually were actually better than the full game.
This is from my years of demo playing experience of being dumb and buying computer magazines with months old news and four or so game demos a week.
21:56
I guess what I'm actually looking from a demo is to see how well the game runs and to see the basic mechanics
For basic mechanics there is YouTube
CC @LessPop_MoreFizz
Otherwise... well... There's DIY demos
@Fluttershy Also InFlux for %70 off dailyroyale.com

Q: Do items bought from Kadala have a different stat range when bought in a Torment Game?

AssylumKadala sells Items for Blood Shards. Since I am fresh 70, I do not have the gear yet to do Torment. But does Torment actually provide different stat ranges for items bought from Kadala? So basically the idea is to do Bounties and Rifts on Master and then switch to Torment to spend the Blood Shar...

@Lazers We're actually going to need to meta that tag aren't we? (to avoid having that discussion in chat 47 more times)
(I have no opinion on it personally)
Is reaper of souls a different game?
@GnomeSlice Expansion.
22:05
Why does it need a new tag then?
@GnomeSlice Making a new tag for the expansion has been the practice since before I joined the site.

Q: Shouldn't 'starcraft-2' and 'starcraft-2-hots' be split now that "Heart of the Swarm" was released?

SentryStarCraft 2: Heart of the Swarm (HotS) was released today, but starcraft-2-hots is still a synonym for starcraft-2. This was already discussed a year ago, but now all information are available and I think this need immediate action with more and more HotS questions popping up. SC2:HotS is NOT a...

Shattered Planet is out on iOS, Android launch coming in April.
Blizzard, why do you do stuff differently and mess up our "tag dlcs too in general" practice?
@Yuki Fun, if you have the stats to keep up with it
22:11
I wonder if we should tag games with the expansion if it's not a separate part of the game...
Like, pretty much all the Skyrim questions nowadays should have
We haven't felt the loss of not having the expansion tag on other RoS questions so far.
because all the content is so mixed..
@3ventic I mean, with the exception of hearthfire, the DLCs pretty much add an entire new quest line
But they also add a lot of items found throughout the game and modify existing NPCs
Well, yes, but I'd say Dragonborn especially could be considered as quite separate.
22:14
True, as it adds another island
DLC != Expansion?
@MichaelFrank What's the difference? Size?
Delivery.
I'm not entirely clear, but I think "expansion" is slightly peculiar to Blizzard
I could see how some DLC wouldn't be considered an expansion
22:16
Anybody want a 25% off coupon (steam) for Pixel Piracy? I received two (not sure how or why) and apparently can only use one
If you can buy it from a store, it's probably not a DLC.
You can buy Skyrim's DLC from a store.
expansions are usually a lot bigger than DLCs
although it's in an all-in-one package, but anyway
I imagine an extensive DLC could be considered an expansion
22:18
I think of DLC as content I download and expansion as something that expands my experience with the game, such as new quests or levels to complete
@3ventic I'd say DLC = Generally a small addition to a game. Cheaply priced.
We're damn inconsistent about tagging DLCs and expansions anyway
Expansion = a large addition to the game, usually as big or nearly as big as the main game. Sometimes standalone.
can we avoid distinguishing between the two anyway
It's all very arbitrary
True.
I don't think we should be tagging with expansion/DLC tags anyway unless the DLC/expansion content is playable without messing with the original game
like a new independent area/quest-line that doesn't mess with the original
22:19
...what did we end up doing for the BoI expansion-dlc-thingadongdong?
WoTL
it's synonym for the base tag I think
nope
nop
oh ...
it should be synonym tbh
I bought the game and didn't even know it had wrath of the lamb until someone told me about it
22:22
I wonder if we have the same question asked twice, once for the base game and once for the extension thing
also: COLON DEE
Probably.
@badp You didn't have Defender's Quest before?
You're going to like it.
I like defender's quest
I mean, there's more ridiculous EULAs screen than this, but every EULA screen you can't select the text of is really bad
Any.Do holds the record for most ridiculous EULA screen I've been subjected to of all recent times
