@LessPopMoreFizz link? game/movie?
anyone see MI:4 or whatever? Any good?
@NickT Movie, precuel to the Alien series
@NickT upcoming film from Ridley Scott. Getting link.
@Mana Possibly, but beside the point. :)
"Alie"?

A: Why was the following question closed?

Raven DreamerI originally closed the later question as a duplicate, because it was, as observed, a duplicate. This meant we had a closed question with an answer linking to an open question without an answer. That's probably the opposite of what we want, so I reversed the chain, closing the earlier one, and ...

For next year I'm mostly looking forward to Dark Knight Rises (who isn't?) and Django Unchained
@LessPop_MoreFizz any trailers that use technology from this millennium?
@NickT last I checked, Quicktime is Mpeg4. And pretty sure it's 'exclusively' on apples website, which means you can just search youtube.
Personally, I'll take Quicktime over Flash any day. at least the former doesn't make the fans on my laptop sound like a fucking jet engine.
00:04
I always forget I can't fullscreen youtube vids in the Steam overlay
@RavenDreamer fair enough, thanks for the clarification.
@EtonB No problemo!
... now I want a Sombrero hat.

@RavenDreamer That is a missed opportunity.
Although, I really don't want to take the Rep Cap off personally, because it fits this gravatar so well.

Oh wait, this isn't TF2.
after reading all the penis posts, this one sounds dubious:

A: What is the suggested level before entering Volskygge in skyrim?

geertI was level 11 but it was rock hard for me then

@LessPop_MoreFizz Oh, is this the one that tells about where the Space Jockey came from?
@NickT Haha, good one
Um... I was just awarded the Wizard Hat... again?
now you just need to wait until SE adds trading
GT5 only got a 84 on metacritic? I thought everyone loved that game
00:14
@NickT It had lots of hype, but...problems.
@Powerlord You're a double wizard. And possible a witch, also.
load times, old cars not getting updated, and horrible menus
plus no damage, basically
hmm
Plus the AI's really bad
I only played it for a few hours at my friend's, didn't really get the "whole experience" I guess
00:17
@NickT They've been fixed a bit in updates though, and it looks good.

Q: How do I get the Korriban title?

PowerlordAccording to my Codex, I'm missing an "Achievement: Title" for Korriban. I thought I had done everything on the planet. What is this title and how do I earn it?

Q: How do I get the 6th Datacron on Dromund Kaas

PowerlordIn Beta, there were only 5 Datacrons on Dromund Kaas. However, when the game launched, the planetary information was updated to say there were six Datacrons. Where is the last one? The five I've located are: In the spaceport, in Docking Bay D-61. South-west of the Spaceport. Above the waterf...

Q: Can I get "League Combat" achievements in FFA mode?

ClarityForceLeague Combat achievements are related to "a single league game". Does it include FFA?

Wonderful.
00:41
Argh.
I asked what the fastest way was to get the Fate of the World achievement and the 2 answers I received were "Here, use this save game."
Had to edit to throw in a caveat that I was looking for actual strategy.

If we allow this answer, surely questions such as: how do I beat X can be answered with: change their data so they have really low health

Q: What's the fastest way to get the "Let it Glow" achievement?

FallenAngelEyesThe Let It Glow achievement states Plunge the world into Global Thermonuclear War by 2075!. I've only just started playing the game and I only have one scenario unlocked. Can I get this achievement with only "The Rise of Africa" or do I need to unlock other scenarios? When I have one I can do t...

can 1-rep users comment on their own posts?
@NickT I believe so
@RavenDreamer thanks for the info about that site, sorry, I've got in-laws in town and I had to make a food run.
@FallenAngelEyes someone answered something similar about AI war, and I was like... uh... no thanks?
I guess @powerlord, are you unhappy with my methodology? I do use google pretty often, is your stance that I shouldn't? Trying to understand your point.
maybe I'm just misreading, that happens to me quite a bit on the internets
@agent86 Part of my point is that you have no clue whether the answer you're posting is right or wrong.
there's been a few cases where I got it wrong, I'll admit that. I don't know that it's a function of how much I knew going in though.
Like I could swear that PSN didn't work the way it was described in that one thread about sharing an uncharted 3 online pass.
user20683
the PSN works?!
or that bonding in spacechem doesn't bond every atom at the same time.
user20683
01:01
:P
user20683
bonding doesn't do that in space chem
user20683
at most 2 at a time
I know, I could've sworn though.
user20683
sorta
if you put a bunch of atoms on bonders, and it exceeds the max, I could've sworn that crashes the reactor
user20683
01:02
it all depends on how you place the bonders
user20683
I've not crashed a reactor
but apparently it just picks some random atoms to bind together, or the algorithm is just really unclear.
user20683
also Jamestown has a steam holiday thing
I meant the reaction halts, and you have to stop. surely you've had a bad reaction :)
user20683
just play through a level with the red charge ship
01:03
I don't think I can do a level without smashing atoms together by mistake at least a few times
user20683
yeah I've had that happen but I think it's input/output lag
user20683
I seldom run into collisions but I do tend to have bonding/latency problems
user20683
my solutions do tend to be ridiculously over engineered
I'm a dyed in the wool software engineer, so I'm used to things not compiling or having runtime bugs, I run early and run often :P
user20683
same
01:04
it crashed? ok, load it back up and start again :)
user20683
though I am a mere apprentice

someone I know described SpaceChem as "Labview: The Video Game"

hah, I've only rarely used labview, but I can see the similarities.

Q: Do I need to start a new game for each scenario?

FallenAngelEyesI finished up the first scenario, "The Rise of Africa," and at the end, the tutorial tooltip says I can either keep looking at stats or exit to the menu. I assumed that my saves for each scenario would all be in one save, however, that doesn't seem to be the case. When I load up the save that I...

Q: How to make a thin layer of lava

stayI've seen video's of people making monster farmers with wires, switches, statues and a thin layer of lava to kill the newly created monster. They always seem to have a perfectly created layer of lava that doesn't destroy the item but still destroys the monster. I would like to know if there is a...

01:14
@RavenDreamer hah, I actually went from memory on that one.
your answer was quite good though, I upvoted it.
I'm not really sure why it has to be a competition. I'm surely not always right. I just like to answer questions.
that's kind of the point of this site, that better answers are possible, and answers can change over time
it's not like I'm getting anything, except for the free game, and I could've stopped at 500 for that
I could really give a shit about what the number under my name is.
this is just more interesting than browsing fark or cheezburger network.
@agent86 I think you mean Reddit. ;0
@RavenDreamer lol, I never have gotten into reddit. Except the occasional Degrasse Tyson AMA thread.
If anyone is still around in about 4 hours, a new video should be up on our channel, when it's up can you make blue team's part 2 public too?
I'd do it, but, sleep
zzzzzzzzzz
01:22
I'm heading off to sleep as well. Merry Christmas to all who celebrate and won't be around the next 2 days!
where is @badp, we're supposed to hand out stuff today I thought
@FallenAngelEyes Sweet dreams of fat men to you!
good night to those of you who are sleeping now
Played Dirt 2 Demo and I think I've already taken out half of Morocco's snow fencing and scrub brush
pretty sweet though; probably get Dirt 3 while it's on sale
hmm, what shall I play? I guess I'll set up the AI War thing
user20683
01:32
I'll play something with you though I may have to install it
user20683
or whomever
user20683
I generally tend to do a lot of Paradox stuff which is rather solitary
user20683
also my multiplayer net connection may still be evil
user20683
at the moment I'm putting out the fires of absurd numbers of rebellions
user20683
01:46
hey
Wait, is it Christmas Eve?
Why is everyone saying Merry Christmas?
My watch band broke, so I have no idea what day it is.
Would anyone here like to join me playing Sanctum?
user20683
it is
user20683
how is Sanctum?
user20683
I'm not really a tower defense kind of guy
I have been really enjoying it, although I wish I could disable the Festivus graphics.
I do like tower defense games though. Which is odd, because I'm not very strategic.

Q: Do the different skills on the skill tree add to each other?

sarge_smithIn the bounty hunter: powertech skill tree, the skill puncture lets rail shot ignore up to 60% of your opponents armour and the skill superheated rail let you ignore 30% of your oppenents armour. So does the combination of these two skills mean that you are ignoring 90% of your opponents armour ...

Q: Are purchased gathering missions usable more than once?

PowerlordI recently bought a Treasure Hunting mission from the Auction House. When I used it, I noticed the name of a new mission with a little unlocked lock appear next to it in my Treasure Hunt mission list. However, once that mission was done, it doesn't appear in my list any more. Is that mission o...

I keep getting banned from multiplayer servers though. For making their mazes better.

01:56
I'm gathering some coal from steam :)
Why is there a Portal 2 tab in my profile? I don't own portal 2
user20683
I think there was gifts given out as free portal stuff
user20683
the "default" steam thing from the first day
and I don't see them since I don't own it then .. something like that?

A: Any way to get a clean Reputation on XBL?

RaulI play L4d nd i have 78 percent when i never did anything wrong but everyone is team killing i wanna clear my rep and start all over what do i need>?

@WorldEngineer +1
@WorldEngineer I love this.
@AnnaLear Ninja'd!
user20683
what did you ninja?
02:01
The above link.
Comments.
plays Sanctum
I usually suck at Tower Def games that require you to build the maze yourself, but I seem to be doing pretty well with this one.
user20683
<--knows graph theory :D
I WANT THE NOOB HAT
@WorldEngineer I used to be really good at maths.
I have a pretty good understanding of what path will expose the most surface area of the towers.
@GnomeSlice reverse tower def is a common team nowadays?
@StevenJeuris No, I'm still the defender, not the attacker.
You need to place the defensive towers on the stage to build a mae the monsters are forced to run through.
I meant theme, not team .. it's getting late
aaaah .. K i get it now
user20683
02:04
so it's basically like Orcs Must Die
user20683
I like Revenge of the Titan's take on it
It's a bit dissappointing, wasn't that on sale for 75% recently? I just won a 50% coupon ... hooray
user20683
it's on now
user20683
still
@WorldEngineer Er... the monsters in that just go straight for the goal.
02:05
well .. if I could combine them :)
Revenge of the Titans was great, but got to the point where I just couldn't progress any further.
@GnomeSlice In Europe where it's after midnight. It's not until Saturday though. A good number of hours away in the US/Canada.
This E.Y.E. any good btw? Never heard of it, and looks pretty cheap for a 3D game.
user20683
It's not till Jan 6th for the Orthodox
@StevenJeuris What's E.Y.E. stand for?
@StevenJeuris Also, just because a game is 3D doesn't mean it's very good.
user20683
02:07
@GnomeSlice I submit Big Rigs as exhibit A
@GnomeSlice That's why I'm asking. ;p
@WorldEngineer Hater.
@WorldEngineer Over the Road Racing?
user20683
and then I submit Grotesque Tactics as exhibit 2
user20683
and Superman 64 as exhibit gamma
02:09
<3 MEGAMAN 64
@WorldEngineer Okay, that one I actually played and liked for real.
user20683
GT or Superman?
user20683
I found GT to be really irritating for some reason
@WorldEngineer Superman; hover over.
user20683
ah
02:10
If any of you are interested in some really cheap indie games that are loads of fun, just let me know
@GnomeSlice ?
@GnomeSlice ?
@GnomeSlice do they come on 3.5" floppys?
@GnomeSlice here?
user20683
@Krazer starred
user20683
02:14
I actually have 5.5"inchers that might still work if I could find a drive to write to them
I miss those old games
they were less about graphics and more about gameplay and aesthetics...
user20683
I got started with the likes of Super Star Trek, Frogger and Commander Keen
Still waiting for Mr. 314 to save the Universe :p
@GnomeSlice Fine, fine. Mine is better. :P
@WorldEngineer commander keen was awesome :)
user20683
02:21
is awesome
user20683
still available on Steam
user20683
and on other places
have any of you played any of the unofficial Keen mods like The Universe is Toast?
user20683
yep
user20683
very very well done
user20683
02:22
really hard though
user20683
much harder than Canon keen
user20683
@Steven and this is why we can't have nice things
@WorldEngineer Well, I guess one thing they could do is remove the steam codes ... and I wouldn't mind a minimum price either.
actually I would mind removing the steam codes ... so nice I don't have to keep all these installers around.
user20683
@StevenJeuris I'd mind the missing achievements

Q: What are the various SWTOR servers named after?

Raven DreamerIn WoW, Blizzard named their servers after prominent characters or groups. I had expected that SWTOR would be the same way. Now, I'm no starwars neophyte, but I don't recognize half the terms that make up the server list. "Space Slug"? "Naddist Rebels"? "Bondar Crystal"? "Veela"? (Trying to goo...

Q: How to make money with 99 fletching?

Q: What FPS is this?

AlainWhat's the game in this GIF? (FPS where some guys run through a door without opening, then one runs back and kicks open the door so the last guy can get through.)

@WorldEngineer yea I can second that. took me quite a long time to ge through the 3 games
user20683
@Krazer still not as hard as Meat Boy
@WorldEngineer haha totally not a "causal" game
@WorldEngineer I've almost finished all levels (at the end of cotton world atm). Most likely I can still spend another 20 hours or so acing them and getting all bandages. Not forgetting I skipped plenty of dark worlds.
only have world 1 100% :)
Really though, I have some good games I could tell anyone interested in cheap indies about
@WorldEngineer Clearly you've never played N.
user20683
02:40
@GnomeSlice can and have also hard
user20683
also You wanna be the Guy
user20683
never played Kaizo Mario though
@GnomeSlice You lack telling despite apparent intrest by @StevenJeuris and I.
@Ullallulloo '?' isn't very descriptive.
For instance, what sort of games are you interested in?
Computers are fast.
02:42
@GnomeSlice uh...I don't know. About anything except most platformers.
@Ullallulloo See, that throws out the window the game I was thinking of.
Need this information.
Also, I broke steam.
user20683
@RavenDreamer computers are fast but programmers are slow
@Ullallulloo You don't like platformers?
@Wipqozn They're okay; I just have other stuff that I prefer more.
@WorldEngineer Computers parse 5 .csv files into 5 48 x 48 char arrays very fast.
02:43
@Ullallulloo Sorry, but that's incorrect.
Feel free to try again.
@GnomeSlice It'd still be useful if others are interested.
@Ullallulloo Not likely, I've posted it before.
I'd suggest Wizorb.
@Ullallulloo Did you just edit your post to add a semi-colon? +30 respect points.
@Wipqozn Good now?
@Ullallulloo I meant that you are incorrect for not preferring other genres of platforming games.
02:45
Girls go crazy for a man who knows his way around a semi-colon; I speak from experience.
@GnomeSlice haha ... a jumping tank .. I remember seeing a trailer of this before
Didgery, which you can pay $0 for.
@StevenJeuris It's actually quite good.
Octopede is another great one.
That's just from browsing my indievania purchases.
Flowerworks is surprisingly entertaining as well.
Thanks, I'll check out indievania
DO check out Wizrob though.
I've been dying to play it, but I want it for Xbox 360.
ooh yeah .. I was wanting to buy that when I saw the trailer
finally another breakout title! :)
02:48
Also, haven't tried this yet, but Epic Inventor looks interesting. And it's free.
Also, you might try SuperCrateBox Which is free, and tons of fun.
Nitronic Rush is a pretty awesome freeware title, in the vein of the old Hotwheels games.
user20683
@GnomeSlice Nitronic Rush needs to be a full title as of right now
user20683
it'd be incredible online
Station37 is a freeware platformer similar to Cave Story.
Happy post-Winter-solstice celebratory event, y'all!
Orthorobot is an interesting game.
02:51
@Brant Merry Christmas to you as well. :3
.... man, I need more time :)
Of course there's Raptor Safari which is free to play in your browser with unity.
Sleep is Death is unlike anything you've ever played... you'd have to look at the sample stories to understand what it is.
Flotilla is wayyy more engaging than it looks, and totally worth the current sale price of $4.98 .
GnomeSlice, maybe you should make a community wiki out of this or something.
I'm thinking of having my brother get Greed Corps today.
@StevenJeuris Or a blog post?
This is why I said I needed some more information than '?'.
@Ullallulloo TIS ON SALE.
Oh man.
02:55
@Ullallulloo It's already in my cart. Might buy it tomorrow.
@GnomeSlice I thought that'd interest you.
I've been wanting that for years.
How long is it on sale..
No monies.
@GnomeSlice Plus it has an achievement as an objective in the holiday sale.
@GnomeSlice Til January.
a little over a week
@GnomeSlice Another 15 hours
Astroslugs is a really nicely put together indie puzzle title, that's on for a great price.
@StevenJeuris WHAT
S0M3ON3 GIFT M3 IT PL0X.
02:56
Buy Greed Corp

HOLIDAY SALE! Offer ends January 2nd
@GnomeSlice If we bought it, we would get an extra copy from the 4-pack...
@Ullallulloo Oh, but isn't the daily sale cheaper than the one which ends on Januari 2nd?
@StevenJeuris Possibly
The Portals stayed on sale for 3 hours after that day when we bought those a couple days ago.
Rats. I wanted Metal Drift too.
user20683
usually but not always
Right now it's -75%, 2.49 euros. :)
02:58
Pixelry is an odd little jousting game for $1.
@StevenJeuris If you check From Dust, it says the sale ends in 19 hours.
Haven't tried Fotonica but it looks awesome.
And Sonar is pretty good value.
The Lunar Pack has one of my favourite indie games of all time in it, and you can get it for $1 on Indievania, which is less than anywhere else.
It's a bundle of the first two games from BossBaddy (devs ofReally Big Sky).
Also, if you can get it to run, Golf? seems like it would be tons of fun. Never had much luck getting it going.
Knightfall 2 is my favourite flash game, ever.
@Ullallulloo For whatever reason, Valve is keeping the previous day's sales for 4 hours after the new one starts this year. However, Greed Corps isn't any cheaper today than for the rest of the sale, at least not according to its page.
Illuminator is a neat freeware adventure.
@GnomeSlice You should seriously write a blog post with these.
03:05
These are just off the top of my head.
Voxatron is a really cool community-driven adventure/shooter.
user20683
Voxatron is interesting but I'll play it again when it officially releases to Gold
King Arthur's Gold is an awesome multiplayer game that may strike you as similar to Terraria in some ways. It's [mostly] free.
@GnomeSlice There was an indie bundle dedicated to Voxatron. Never installed it, it is alpha and has multiplayer?
@StevenJeuris No multiplayer, but user levels are a big part of it.
I picked up an extra copy of Frozen Synapse today just for whatevs.
I'm sure I'll bludgeon one of my friends into playing it.
Or two, since it comes with a 2nd copy!
03:08
About that... have we given up on the tournament?
user15026
@GnomeSlice I keep forgetting about this pack. It looks awesome, and I keep wanting to pick it up.
@AshleyNunn Do it.
Flying Sweden looks like potentially one of the greatest games of all time, but I couldn't get it to run. =[
> Have you ever wanted to rip a country free from the ground, have it soar into the heavens and then arm it with furniture chains and giant wooden horses before engaging other nations in a battle of aerial supremacy? No? Well, if you change your mind, Flying Sweden is waiting for you.
Ah crap, it's mac only.
That explains it.
user15026
@GnomeSlice Unfortunately, I have, at this moment, negative 31 cents to spend on random things of my choosing. When the month (and year! Hurray!) roll over, then I can. :)
They SAID there were Windows and linux versions coming.
user15026
@GnomeSlice That sounds utterly ridiculous but awesomely entertaining all at once.
03:10
If that doesn't seem like the most amazing thing ever... GTFO.
user15026
@GnomeSlice That is win. Completely.
Iffermoon is a sidescrolling adventure game (I think) with slightly dated graphics and gameplay, and gorgeous hand-drawn art.
I enjoyed what I played of the OwlBoy demo, it's a sidescrolling dungeonflier.
Fantastic Blood Boy is... well I'm not really sure. Some kind of platformer.
Actually, this is awesome.

Q: What are the extra things I can do to earn Sega Miles?

Ashley NunnIn Sonic and Sega All Stars Racing, one of the loading screen mentions there are "possibly other things you can do in a race to earn Sega Miles." I know you get more miles if you win races, but what other things can I do to make sure I earn as many Miles as possible?

suteF was an interesting puzzle game, but I didn't play it to completion, it's got some annoying qualities.
Then of course...
There's this pile of shit left over from when I thought I'd have a go at making games.
So many memories.
If you're a glutton for punishment, download them.

Anyone?
Oh god, my games are terrible.
I can't even play this.

Lol. I took a one-week minicourse at Carleton University in Game Development when I was in highschool, and that's what I came up with.
user20683
03:33
@GnomeSlice not half bad
Add me as a friend.
Also, nice work on Square Meal.
@GnomeSlice I did months ago.
Oh goodness, It's been so long since I've visited YoyoGames, some of these look awesome.
@GnomeSlice Would you believe me if I said that I've never heard of that game before?
03:35
@Ullallulloo Yes.
Mine has an 's'.
<3 Nitrome.
@GnomeSlice I tried to play, but the plugin thing seems incompatible with FF9 or something.
Also, everyone needs to try Seiklus. It's one of the best games I've ever played.
Grr ... stupid last cotton alley level in SMB! Off to bed! I still didn't see the end of the level, it's just circle saw after moving circle saw after multiple circle saws after multiple moving circle saws ...
03:36
@Ullallulloo Download them.
I have download links available for all of my games.
Scroll down a little ways on the right
@GnomeSlice Oh, I missed those.
Good night people!
Hah, Hyper Princess Pitch is here as well. Must have been done in GameMaker.
Pros: it was so good that i cried
Cons: i hate crying

Q: Where can I find an Amulet of Mara?

m.n.wiserI am trying to find the Amulet of Mara so I can get married, but I can't find it and it doesn't seem to be at any of the stores. Is there any specific place I can find it?

"WHY WOULD YOU DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT?!?"
03:41
@Ullallulloo YOU ASSHOLE, LEAVE THE POOR COWS ALONE.
Also, The Power is an excellent freeware metroid-style sidescroller for anyone interested.
Seriously, play it. Alexitron was one of the greats.
Why the hell did Steam just download Half-Life?
OH SNAP!

Q: How do I Get the Heads-Up Display?

GnomeSliceI'm kind of lost without a heads-up display, particularly when I'm just learning how to be a Raptor again. How can I get this guy to give me his?

Oh man, everyone needs to play this.
There's so much great humour in here. And a really silly Zelda reference near the beginning.
So much meta humour.
My game. She is finished.
Now to upload it somewhere.
Seems like my kind of game.
Apparently it's similar to Karoshi.
