One of my dwarfs recently went mad and starved to death, and his corpse is starting to stink up the place. I read online that corpses are disposed of in the graveyard, however it appears to have been removed in the latest version of Dwarf Fortress, 0.31.25. According to this question and this art...
@AbbyTMillerΨ The game we're talking about is the only game I can triumphantly claim that I can use my (self-proclaimed) sexy older sister as bait to catch octopi in lava.
@GraceNote what is it i need to play it immediately
@GraceNote i used to be a champ at throwing my sexy older sister into lava to catch octopi but then we moved away from a volcano and they passed a law with my name on it :(
The game is a classic point and click game from the 90's where you are a human look a like duck and it has some adult content like finding the best way to kill two cute baby squirrels and try to flirt with your receptionist..i don't remember much more but i do remember that you had to choose betw...
I played through Batman: Arkham Asylum a couple times, and remember getting two different endings:
one where Killer Croc's hand shoots from the surface of Gotham Bay, and the other where its Bane's hand.
What are the different endings available? What do or don't do you do to get each endi...
Specifically, the easiest to catch because the gauge moves slower than a snail. Which consequently makes it the worst thing to catch whenever you're trying to catch something else.
I bought this game on HumbleBundle and I let my eight years old neice to play it for a while. However, she drew many ugly looking stuff on the stage selection area (inside the first island).
I tried to clear it with the right mouse button, but it deleted the drawing that came with the game too ...
For those who are interested, the Desktop Dungeons online beta is open now. (You have to have pre-ordered the full version to get access to the beta, though.) Looks pretty cool, wish I had more time tonight to play it. (I'm GMT -4, so it's pretty late here.)
I'm in to Darksiders for Xbox 360 recently.Playing it for sometime now and noticed that when I starts the game in the main menu where it says "Press Start" always trigger me to select a Storage device. Why it always asks? is there a problem in my system? or is it just normal.I never had this expe...
In railroad tycoon 2, certain buildings and managers allow decreased "turnaround time" for your stations. Ive never quite understood it.

That would be impressive for someone only programming for a month, but he said "assigns values to each letter" which sounds like he just used an if statement.
I know someone linked to this, so maybe everyone just has really low standards. Then again maybe everyone just thought the same thing you did, and used the ASCII values.
@badp Yeah me too lol. I can't fault them though. Whenever someone talks about a program my mind always jumps to what the solution would be.
Us programmers are funny like that.
When I first read the article by Jeff I was shocked. Then I stopped to think for a minute and I realized something: most of my fellow comp-sci students are terrible programmers. I don't mean that they don't know all the ins and outs, because that's to be expected. I mean they struggle with basic logic problems after having been coding for a year, similar in difficulty level as the problems cited by Jeff.
I dunno, I for one can get confused easily by stuff like linked list reversing algorithms, and play games like Cogs quasirandomly
I haven't concerned myself because on the former, it's standard stuff I don't have to invent myself, and on the latter, eh, I just haven't spent enough time to grok sliding puzzle and how to handle situations where you're almost there but there's like just one piece out of place (grrr)
I'm not talking about something like linked lists. I mean something even more basic.
Actually upon reflection I should have rephrased what I said. Programs which would be considered as basic for someone programming for a year, as programs that would be considered as basic for someone programming four four years.
The wording could be improved, but I hope I got my point across.
Right Click and You: How to Fuck Up Royally With The Dead Ringer.
General strategy. Accidental activation. Accidental deactivation. Accidental activation and deactivation. Getting killed at 99% cloak. Decloaking while on fire. The French Double Fail (backstabbing with the dead ringer on, pulling it off then getting shotgunned). Extra topics: Disguise during cloaking, and lack thereof. Accidental backpack opening. Sap backstabbing. Humiliation domination (receiving).
> Just so we're clear, when you're bored on a plane, and you have your laptop, and you want to play the game you bought in order to fight boredom, Blizzard's official recommendation is that you play someone else's game. That's pride, right there.
@badp I've noticed that too. People seem to spend more time shooting their allies until they would have died if they were a spy then actually going after an objective.
And I really dislike the auction house fragmentation. Ultimately there will be some gold <-> $ conversion ratio, so those two AHs are trading with what is effectively the same currency
But if I find some neat item, where would I publish it?
@badp if I buy a great item from the gold AH by spending 1M gold and then sell the same item on the currency AH for 1$, I just effectively converted 1M gold to 1$.
@badp no, but I think it's close enough, so over a lot of transactions some average conversion ratio will surface, until people know that 1$ is roughly 1M gold
@GraceNote I agree that converting such a game to WASD+mouse-aiming requires some tweaks, such as adding strafing animations and (perhaps) removing the target-lock mechanism. But these are precisely the tweaks a good port should do!

Pretty straightforward question here. Which elements are super-effective against which other elements?
Should I play "Saints Row" before playing "Saints Row 2"? Is the story there a continuation of the first game? Will I feel lost if I start with SR2?
