In Fallout 1 and 2, putting points into Energy Weapons was a good (but incredibly not obvious) idea because the plasma rifle was OP by the time you'd come across it. Wasteland 2 seems to have even more skills and perks. What's a good basic party to create without having to re-roll when it turns...

@HectorOrdonez Can you expand a bit?

Hector Ordonez

I am looking for an old game which I cant remember, and I wonder if it is appropiate to ask for it

fredley

@HectorOrdonez No, unless you have something tangible to help identify it, such as a screenshot, audio etc.

@HectorOrdonez But you're welcome to ask in here :)

Hector Ordonez

Uhm alright

It was a turn-based space game, around 1995. 3D (or what looked like)

You were fighting aliens and could play against other people as well.

Ih the arcade mode you could buy equipment and upgrades, and was quite difficult

I think the name had something to do with Cryo or Byo or something like that...

In the story you were playing as one of the guys and other people joined you. You had weapons such as flame thrower or laser, and weapons would heat up with over use

More or less that´s all I recall...

What would happen if the entire universe

if the entire universe was filled with air

breathable air

at current surface level atmospheric density

Private Pansy

Uh, let's go xkcd what-if here, hmmm?

badp

@PrivatePansy I dunno where to submit it.

Private Pansy

17:07

It would be a lot hotter, since with air there's heat from convection in addition to radiation, which is the only way heat can travel in space

badp

It'd be the kind of issue where everything dies immediately.

Private Pansy

The difference in density would cause them to start clumping up

badp

His favorite type of issue.

@PrivatePansy I think there's the shockwave you need to worry about before that becomes an issue.

Private Pansy

@badp The button is at the bottom of the page

@badp Well, depending on how you actually fill up the universe with 1atm of gas

Matt Giltaji

@RedRiderX nicely done

badp

17:09

Also the part where every planet suddenly slams into an enormous wall of air

Private Pansy

I can't imagine doing it in a way that's actually possible in accordance with the laws of physics. The molecules can't just appear out of thin air (pun not intended)

badp

That would be a problem before the shockwave

Private Pansy

@badp You just said everywhere is 1atm. If that's the case, there shouldn't be a pressure differential, right?

badp

@PrivatePansy Well there is between before and after.

Yuuki

TIL the Roswell alien conspiracy is a result of the US gov't trying to keep a top-secret nuclear early-warning system covered up.
