SCIENCE has determined that MIKDR-RDV0K-K0KXT is a Steam key that works
hurry before Gnome sees it
 
@KevinvanderVelden What's going on at that date?
 
10 mins ago, by Kevin van der Velden
Hmm... lindsey stirling is doing a tour in europe, and she's got one show in holland
 
Beyond Earth is pre-loaded! Woo!
 
@KevinvanderVelden Hmmm, what does it cost me?
 
@Frank now you have it on your hard drive! But you still can't play it =p
 
2:05 PM
@KevinvanderVelden For another 27 hours or so.
Not that I expect to be playing it much this weekend, anyways.
 
@Frank My preload completed yesterday evening.
 
@Arperum Pre-load buddies!
high five
 
@Frank Here while you wait that 27 hours, I SHALL TAUNT YOU THAT THE EMBARGO IS UP AT LEAST IN EUROPE LOOK AT SOMEONE WHO HAS ALREADY PLAYED IT
 
@KevinvanderVelden plus parking costs. and I remember that these are not joking around.
 
2:06 PM
GreenManGaming keeps sending me 30% off coupon codes for it.
 
@Unionhawk You do realize I don't care people can play it before me, right?
 
@Frank SHH YES YOU DO
 
@Frank Speaking of GMG, I already used my 25% off code... and then they sent me a reminder about it. I didn't check if it was a new code or not, though
 
I'll be interested to see if this will be a game I'd be interested in, but I'll wait for a steam sale grade sale of higher percentages than 30, probably
I've got enough games at the moment
 
@Unionhawk You never have enough games.
 
2:08 PM
@Arperum That's not true and you know it
Though I wouldn't mind getting credited for finally having a 100 game library (scrub-tier library, I know)
 
@Unionhawk SHUDDUP. I CAN'T HEAR YOU OVER THE SOUNDS OF GAMES BEING BOUGHT.
 
@Unionhawk Well, you get some steam xp...
 
@Unionhawk I got to that point earlier this year.
 
@5pike And a new badge to showcase other than the 50+ badge
 
@Unionhawk (I'm just trying to tell that to myself)
@Unionhawk it replaces the 50+ badge.
 
2:10 PM
Is this a new standalone Civ game or another expansion for Civ V?
 
@StrixVaria new.
 
Since nobody cares about game badges since they're just a function of "did you spend money on the market for pointless stuff?"
 
@Arperum Oh interesting. I hadn't been paying attention because I thought it was an expansion.
I'm still definitely not getting it, but I should at least read about it or watch a video or something.
 
@StrixVaria nope. completely brand new.
@StrixVaria multiple people here will be able to provide opinions later on.
 
I'll barely have time to play it this weekend, anyways.
 
2:12 PM
I do not have time in my life for a Civ game right now.
 
Oh, wait, I only have 95 games? Oooh, right, it said 101 during that huge free weekend
 
@Unionhawk Not even scrub-tier now.
 
@5pike Compared to some people in this room with like, 400+ badges >_>
 
@StrixVaria Ever play Alpha Centauri?
 
Since bundles are a thing
 
2:13 PM
@Unionhawk exactly
 
@Unionhawk Badges or games?
 
@StrixVaria That's pretty much where I'm at in my life
 
@5pike I'm pretty sure I don't even have 100 games in my library.
 
even with bundles being a thing, badges aren't really a good idea :P
 
@Powerlord Badges for having that many games
@badp Yes.
 
2:13 PM
@Frank Nope.
 
@Unionhawk Oh. I probably have one of those.
 
@Unionhawk Aren't you in college?
 
@StrixVaria Yes...?
 
@StrixVaria Oh. Well, then. Think Civ, far future, other planet, sci-fi-ish.
 
@Unionhawk Ergo, you have time.
 
2:14 PM
I had unlimited free time in college.
 
That's Beyond Earth.
 
Kappei is my top Steam leveled friend at 94 badges
 
I wish i had as much free time as I did back in college.
 
It onl gets worse later on.
 
and he isn't here
 
2:14 PM
Unlimited time does not compute
 
Next up is @Chippies at level 37, 48 badges
 
@badp nono, not 400 badges. a badge for 400+ games
 
@Arperum ah
There's no 400+ games badge, but there's a 500+ one.
 
I don't know that 400 games have badges
 
The one you get automagically.
 
2:15 PM
Whatever
Then again, apparently Starbound has badges now, so...
 
@Unionhawk You don't need that many, there is also foil badges, and a pile of other random badges. Up to Badge for the stuff that happened around the Portal 2 release.
 
@badp Whatever, I know what I mean.
yes I understand that isn't the important part
@Arperum Fuuuuuck
 
@3ventic NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO I just closed that yesterday. You will not suck me back in!
 
Sorry guys we didn't tweet a hashtag enough today so harassment across the internet didn't end. Also we didn't find Kony :(
 
2:22 PM
Oh wow okay

Q: Force Suicide in Risk of Rain

user75901Is there any way to force a suicide in Risk of Rain? I got stuck in the map "Temple of the Elders" after finding the Spirit artifact. I jumped down from there and got kind of stuck in nowhere. Here is my current view. Music and time still working but nothing else has any effect. How can i end...

 
although apparently some DLC made it on that list
 
It seems to include DLC as separate identities though.
 
2:23 PM
> showing 1 - 25 of 1096
 
Even still, I hope there isn't 2000 items of DLC there
 
when specifying for only games.
 
@Arperum I get 1101 for only games
5 games added that quick
:P
 
@Batophobia I still get 1096, even through your link. you are just wrong.
 
I'll blame EU/NA
 
2:25 PM
Or you get special cards or something.
@Unionhawk localisation for cards would be horrible.
 
Although there are 2 Software titles with cards as well
 
@Batophobia wat.
 
@Arperum RPG Maker VX Ace and openCanvas 6
 
2:27 PM
 
wut do
 
Also Portal Paint game had cards and is under Mods
Now we have to figure out what those 6 games are....
 
Steam be weird yo
 
Everything I know is a lie
 
2:28 PM
... Go home Steam. You're drunk.
 
My dutchie steam agrees with @5pike, 1097 items
 
Thanks OBAMA

Q: Multi-player RTS with simultaneous control and late joining?

Joachim BreitnerI’m looking for a coop real time strategy game that allows this: Two players start a networked game, against each other, Later, additional players may join the game, on a side of their choosing. Then all players on each team can control all units etc. independently and simultaneously. Prefera...

 
@Lazers Yes. It is.
 
2:36 PM
Wow, I hit a mile of views on this question
 
5280 views=1 mile
apparently
 
A view is clearly a foot.
 
2:38 PM
@StrixVaria They're probably supported via donations from champions.
 
@StrixVaria I hate you so much right now
 
I'm pleased that wolframalpha has a dimensional analysis understanding of "hits"
 
Finally had no incremental tabs, then you post that
 
@Batophobia QUICK CTRL+W BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE
 
@Unionhawk It's already too late for me, save yourself!
 
2:39 PM
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
YOU MONSTER
LOOK AT WHAT YOU'VE DONE
 
CC @Uni new idle game you should try.
I know you like those.
 
yesterday, by Unionhawk
@Chippies I closed Kittens last week, and I have never felt so free in my life.
 
Does addicting users to incrementals count as mod abuse?
4
 
No, since that's a brand of abuse anyone can participate in
 
I'm enjoying this one so far.
 
2:41 PM
@Unionhawk But when done by a mod...
 
@StrixVaria I AM NOT CLICKING
 
Any abuse done by a mod is automatically GLORIOUS MOD ABUSE
 
(until I get home later tonight)
 
@Frank Posting games like Clicker Heroes should be a bannable offence.
 
@Wipqozn Your face is a bannable offense.
 
2:42 PM
@Arperum NO SAVE YOURSELF BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE
 
@StrixVaria But I'm so handsome!
 
@Frank I AM NOT ADDICTED I CAN TAKE FIFTEEN MINUTE LONG BREAKS WHENEVER I WANT
 
@Wipqozn THAT'S not subjective at all.
 
4 hours ago, by Arperum
@Wipqozn Your face is VLQ.
 
@Frank It's not. Look at what it's done to @Chippies
 
2:43 PM
@Arperum high five
 
@StrixVaria high fives
 
@Unionhawk What games count as, "like Clicker Heroes"?
 
How do you get the gold from your adventurers?
 
Also, I dare not start an incremental at work.
 
@Frank Browser-based games in which the goal is to make number go up.
 
2:43 PM
@Frank If it stops @chippies from doing anything else it counts.
 
@Frank Anything I deem to it to be.
 
Or my productivity will drop like a rock.
 
2 mins ago, by Arperum

@Wipqozn THAT'S not subjective at all.
@Arperum @Chippies doesn't have anything else to do.

Q: Can I reset my Badass Points?

JutschgeI accidentally upgraded a wrong stat when I leveled up my Badass rank. Now I want to undo it but I couldn't find an option for it. The only thing I found was Enabling/Disabling the bonuses but it doesn't reset them. Is it possible to redistribute these bonuses and if yes how?

 
2:45 PM
@Frank Other games. Books. Doing stuff in the house. Flying to Belgium and helping get my house fixed.
 
that feeling when your answer surpasses a wrong/incomplete but still positively voted other answer
 
Huh, Ubuntu updates the tzdata package. What new time zone change happened this time?
 
@Frank oh man, blast corps was tons of fun
 
2:47 PM
@Frank Closed questions will eventually be deleted automatically...
 
@StrixVaria Unless they have positively scored answers.
 
@Powerlord doesn't the changelog say?
 
@Frank Is that true?
 
@StrixVaria Yep.
 
That sounds like a dumb restriction.
 
2:48 PM
@badp I'm updating it from apt-get on the command-line.
 
shrug I didn't make it, I'm just working with it.
 
Carry on then.
 
They don't want things with good answers to be accidentally and automatically cleaned up
 
@Powerlord apparently this helps
> * New upstream release with zone changes in 4 days for Belarus.
 
2:49 PM
I case someone is interested.
 
@5pike Fancy
 
@5pike $6.36 seems like a nice investment.
 
This game is pretty good
12 mins ago, by Batophobia
@StrixVaria I hate you so much right now
 
I wouldn't normally consider something like this normally, but $6.36...
 
@badp Just bought it. With Paypal conversion I paid ~5 €
 
2:54 PM
@5pike It's just, will I ever actually use this material?
 
@badp Yeah, well, I hope I will. If not, eh, money goes to a charity.
 
@Batophobia Thanks!
 
@StrixVaria WILL THIS DESTROY MY LIFE?
 
@OrigamiRobot yeah, probably
 
@OrigamiRobot Hard to say. It seems to have pretty good depth so far, and there's some balancing to do as the player, but it doesn't seem as hardcore as kittens.
 
2:57 PM
@OrigamiRobot Pretty much guaranteed
 
NOOOOOOOO IT'S NOT EVEN BLOCKED AT WORK
 
@OrigamiRobot It just launched today.
They haven't had time to even realize yet.
 
STILL SURPRISING SINCE IT HAS "GAME" IN THE TITLE BAR
 
@OrigamiRobot NOOOOOO SAVE YOURSELF
 
@Uni Join us.
 
2:58 PM
I LITERALLY CANNOT AFFORD TO PLAY THIS AT WORK TODAY
 
17 mins ago, by Unionhawk
yesterday, by Unionhawk
@Chippies I closed Kittens last week, and I have never felt so free in my life.
 
I WILL START IT UP WHEN I GET HOME
ENJOY YOUR HEAD STARTS :(
 
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO‌​OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO‌​OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOo
 
2:58 PM
what to do with that edit. accept and edit? reject telling that the new info shoul've been a comment?
 
@Arperum That seems like a rather large edit.
It could be correct, though.
 
Naming all my heroes after Arqade users
 
I don't know the game, but if it is correct I'd accept and edit to preserve the formatting and the information
 
@Batophobia Sounds good, don't name one after @Wipqozn though
 
current favorite: Lvl. 5 Frank the Opinionated
 
2:59 PM
Don't know the game, skipping it personally
 
@KevinvanderVelden Wiqozn the Not-Turtle
 
@Frank It wreaks havoc on the layout of the message too.
 
1 min ago, by Unionhawk
I don't know the game, but if it is correct I'd accept and edit to preserve the formatting and the information
 
@Batophobia Wipqozn the anti turtle.
@Unionhawk I don't know the game either.
Skip it is.
 
@Batophobia "Not @Wipqozn the Handsome"
 
3:01 PM
I wish I could suggest an improved edit
And not just make it immediately

Q: How does adventuring level affect job efficiency?

StrixVariaIn HeroVille, I've noticed that my level 5 adventurer is able to gather 2 resources per tick, whereas a level 1 adventurer only gets 1 per tick. What is the correlation here? How can I predict how many resources per tick I will get, given the level of an adventurer. Does the level affect anythin...

Q: PowerColor R7 240 4GB DDR3 OC vs Sapphire R7 250 GDDR3 2GB

yavuzsI want to built a mid-low level pc. My budget is limited so I'm looking for a cheap gpu. I have to choose one of those cards. Which one do you suggest? Here are the links: http://www.powercolor.com/global/products_features.asp?id=556 http://www.sapphiretech.com/presentation/product/?cid=1&gid=3

 
@KevinvanderVelden I refuse to perpetuate that lie
especially when turtles are crazy handsome
 
@Unionhawk Go suggest that option on SE.
 
@Unionhawk Be! Assertive! Be, be! Assertive!
 
@fredley Fuck. That might get stuck in my head. I think I have to blast Sabaton on the way home now.
 
3:04 PM
I don't know the game, and I'm actually unsure of how to process the information anyway
 
@KevinvanderVelden I'll decide later tonight for the 4th of november.
 
Aight, probably no real rush
Tickets have been available for months and they still are =p
 
Wait no I get it
 
@KevinvanderVelden Heh. Eluveitie recenty sold out over here, so no ticket for me :(
 
@Arperum =[
Eindhoven has tickets available for them!
 
3:07 PM
@Batophobia WAT
THIS GAME HAS NAMING?
 
@OrigamiRobot Oh yeah.
 
@OrigamiRobot yes, when you get new adventurers
 
@KevinvanderVelden Eluveitie and Arkona was not that big an issue, I've seen them both multiple times and at least once this year already. But I wanted to see Skalmold.
 
You get an army of heroes and you can name them all.
 
It's pretty great, definitely has ruined my ability to do anything today
 
3:07 PM
@KevinvanderVelden STOP MAKING ME SPEND MONEY.
 
INSTANT GOTY
 
Imagine if you could name kittens
 
THEY DID HAVE NAMES, BUT YOU COULDN'T CHANGE THEM
 
@Arperum heheh
 
Welcome to the team, badp the Abuser
 
3:09 PM
@KevinvanderVelden I bought some other tickets for a sabaton show yesterday, so now I have three sabaton shows planned before the end of february...
 
I WANT TO BE ORIGAMI ROBOT, THE LOUD
 
@Arperum I do a lot of that.
 
(I saw them thrice already this year)
 
@OrigamiRobot scribbles Will do
 
OR THE FLAMMABLE
 
3:10 PM
@OrigamiRobot Alright then, you'll be next
 
ragequit
 
@Frank Same here. If I'm not sure, I sometimes ask here, more often just skip. especially if I don't know if it is right or not.
 
Debating actually setting up an apothecary. I literally can't keep potions in stock.
 
@StrixVaria doesn't save you resources, you'll still need them
 
3:11 PM
@StrixVaria UUUGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH I WANT TO PLAY
 
I NEED TO LEAVE THE BRIDGE FOR TODAY
 
@KevinvanderVelden Yeah, but I make resources fast enough to constantly make potions, and then I'll have an idle source of gold.
 
@fredley HA! It's still in the star list for me
 
Hometime. First getting food, then start some other incremental, let's see if it can break my clicker heroes addiction.
 
3:12 PM
THE TEMPTATION IS TOO MUCH
 
 
@badp lol
 
@OrigamiRobot go listen to lindsey stirling instead!
 
Thank you, computers
Thank you for not normalizing your strings
 
@badp Are you making an armyu of Not Wipqozn's?
 
3:13 PM
 
How do I get loot out of heroes and into the bank?
 
That's a yes.
 
Lvl. 1 ORAGAMIROBOT THE LOUD
 
@badp I am fine with this.
 
@fredley Make things for the heroes to buy.
 
3:14 PM
@fredley No idea, but I think it has to do with them completing the dungeon or dying
oh they buy that stuff?
Everything makes sense now
 
@StrixVaria But they're mine!
 
Recettear the incremental
 
Apothecary get!
And now I have too many potions.
 
@StrixVaria Nonsense!
 
@Batophobia I didn't care too much for the graphics style and I screwed up the pricing model entirely
 
3:16 PM
@Batophobia I need a sequel to that.
It was awesome.
 
It makes me feel great! Smarter.... more aggressive. I feel like I could... like I could... like I could.... TAKE ON THE WORLD!
 
@Frank Agree woah, almost agreed with @Frank there
 
(fun fact: The third "like I could" only plays in Day of the Tentacle if your PC is still loading data for the TAKE ON THE WORLD closeup)
 
@Batophobia The world only burns when I agree with @Sterno.
 
@Frank wasn't there already a sequal to recettear?
 
3:17 PM
@KevinvanderVelden There are games from the same developer, but not a sequel.
 
We should get Steam store links to resolve like Wiki pages
 
> A whimsical Action-RPG brought to you from the creators of the renowned Recettear ~ An Item Shop's Tale.
Not a sequel.
 
@Frank aah, same universe though
 
3:19 PM
@Batophobia oh god I hated that one
 
@KevinvanderVelden Is it?
 
the demo, I mean
 
@KevinvanderVelden Same art style, very different games
 
you rotate the view with your keyboard. YOUR KEYBOARD
like it was Doom 1.
 
@badp OMGWTFBBQ
 
3:19 PM
How did you play Doom 1 with keyboard look?
Seriously.
 
Is there a way to instantly get to the bottom of chat when I've been idle for awhile and it wasn't auto scrolling?
 
@djsmiley2k tab, end?
 
@djsmiley2k Hit the end key?
 
@badp Printer Doom would probably not be for you then...
 
doh, I tried pg down and got nothing.
 
3:21 PM
One thing that's annoying about HeroVille is how long it takes to employ heroes sometimes.
 
@djsmiley2k F5
Wipqozn the Not-Turtle is quite good at keeping potions in stock
 
@Frank I thought it was, but can't find the reference now
 
Someone remind me to never click any link @StrixVaria posts ever again
 
Hero Ville?!
 
3:25 PM
@djsmiley2k DON'T DO IT! IT'S A TRAP!!
 
@djsmiley2k DO IT! IT'S A TRAP!!
 
haha i rmeember hte original one
rpgquest or whatever it was, wasn't even browser based
 
First hero: Wipqozn the Worst
3
 
We need Wipqalot.
 
@OrigamiRobot Home already?
 
3:27 PM
No, I caved.
If I lose my job, I blame @StrixVaria
3
and @Wipqozn
 
Autocad heroes will be more intense
 
@Frank just every hero be a variation of Wipqozn, not Wipqozn, Wipqalot, Wipqozn the Turtleness, etc
 
@KevinvanderVelden Wipqozn the terrible.
 
@OrigamiRobot I'll have you know I'm not playing clicker heroes.
I'm barely even sure what it is. I've made sure to not get involved in your hero craziness.
The best I can understand is that clicker heroes is cocaine.
 
It's not Clicker Heroes
That game is super boring.
This is HeroVille
 
3:30 PM
oh heroville now?
Holy crap guys. You need help.
I'm so sorry for your suffering.
 
@Wipqozn Ignorable cocaine. You can honestly check it twice a day and get all the fun out of it that there is to get.
 
I'm curious and want to look at this game, but I refuse to let myself walk down the same dark path you all have taken.
 
2nd hero: Unionhawk, the Fallible
 
@Frank Wipqalot is dead.
 
Do the heroes lose some of their inventory if they die?
 
3:32 PM
@Wipqozn Long live Wipqterribad!
 
He's never coming back. You guys just need to learn to accept that. moving on is a very important part of life.
@Frank that isn't nearly as catchy as Wipqalot.
 
@Wipqozn But it's a play on terrapin!
I'm so clever!
 
Oh, okay. now I get it.
 
Man, making me explain the joke.
You really are the worst.
 
My next hero will be Sterno, the Ancient
 
3:36 PM
Sterno the Demon
 
@OrigamiRobot You could always use, "Frank, the Eternally Grumpy"
Or, if that doesn't fit, "Frank, the EverGrump"
 
Frank, the Grumpus
 
Hunt the Wumpus is an early video game, based on a simple hide and seek format featuring a mysterious monster (the Wumpus) that lurks deep inside a network of rooms. It was originally a text-based game written in BASIC. It has since been ported to various programming languages and platforms including graphical versions. == Development == Hunt the Wumpus was originally written by Gregory Yob in BASIC while attending the Dartmouth campus of the University of Massachusetts in 1972 or 1973. Out of frustration with all the grid-based hunting games he had seen, such as Snark, Mugwump, and Hurkle, Yob...
 
@OrigamiRobot I approve of this.
@OrigamiRobot I also approve of this.
 
Spugsley, the Butt
 
3:42 PM
"Instant Repair: Will replace your current weapon instantly with another copy when it breaks."
so... not really repair then
 
@OrigamiRobot Should be, "Spugsley, the Baby Puncher"

Q: How can I backup or sync my custom Item Sets

Philipp SanderYou can build custom Item Sets in your profile. Can you automatically sync them to other client installations? Where are those files located?

 
> If you fall into one of the bottomless pits, you find yourself slung back out on the far side of the Earth and in very poor shape to continue your quest since you're dead.
 
@Batophobia I've actually played this.
 
3:49 PM
Blargel.
 
@Powerlord I played a lot of that game
@Yuuki Good Morning to you too

Q: What are the buying patterns for heroes?

BatophobiaMost of the adventurers coming to my shop can't hold the gold needed to buy everything. So, how do they decide what they will purchase? Are weapons purchased before potions? What about workshop items like portals or shields? Will an adventurer ever buy lower quality weapons?
