I got a lot of use out my wii u

I played that way more than my ps4. I've only played four games on that.

I feel like I might have with Mario Kart as a thing but

BlueBarren

Wii U was great

Unionhawk

I never got around to getting it fixed

BlueBarren

Wii U is great

Unionhawk

Mario Kart is actually the primary reason I got it

BlueBarren

14:20

Mario Kart is really good

I need to stop using past tense

the Wii U and it's games are still a thing

Unionhawk

One of the other people in my group overused figures, and one of the comments I have to address is "renumber all of the figures to include a section number"

@Unionhawk Y'know, this group work thing you are having a fight with because the rest of your group passed already is seriously vague.

Sterno

I'm sorry @badp. I don't believe you're actually Hitler.

Unionhawk

BlueBarren

14:42

@Fluttershy let me know if it's good, okay?

Fluttershy

@Unionhawk TOTAL FABRICATION! SAD!

BlueBarren

@TimStone that explains it

Fluttershy

@BlueBarren I've played in all of the alpha/beta tests, and loved it. My only issue is that it's P2P instead of having dedicated servers. :(

Unionhawk

If Elite is any indicator, that'll make it way easier to cheat

BlueBarren

@Fluttershy it looks good for sure I just don't think most games are the money they ask for anymore. There's no point in buying something at launch. But they have servers for the always online portion of the game, no?

Tim Stone

14:43

Whyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy

Fluttershy

@BlueBarren Possibly, but the multiplayer matches are p2p. Host migration was a common occurrence.

Unionhawk

Also if elite is any indicator, instancing errors ahoy

You know what screw you guys in advance

BlueBarren

that's what I'm dealing with

@Fluttershy sounds like Gears of War 2 all over again

Fluttershy

Yes, quote them before they're deleted

Sterno

Unionhawk

@KevinvanderVelden There was a bug where I think owners and mods could quote deleted messages after the fact

Kevin van der Velden

@Frank Yeah, it was pretty cold during the '98 Ice Storm in Ontario but I don't think it got quite that cold

Yuuki

14:56

@Unionhawk It's the coldest it's been all year.

Unionhawk

(actual websites claiming to be news sites have actually used the fact that it's becoming winter to talk about how temperatures are going down since summer)

Yuuki

@Unionhawk I don't know, we had a +40 degree spike over the course of one day just this week.

Extrapolating from that, I'm surprised we're not literally Venus right now.

Unionhawk

@Yuuki Don't worry about that, it's just becoming summer, it'll peak at normal summer temperatures

@Yuuki Probably to prevent leaks such as this.

Wipqozn

@Sterno I've been using the a btter advent mod,

BlueBarren

@Frank well I was reading some stuff posted by gamestop employees and how they do things

the reasons those listings exist is for preorders on things they don't know exist but there's a chance they might

but that's from people who said they worked at Gamestop, that information however couldn't be verified

Yuuki

tl;dr Be cautiously optimistic but don't take it as gospel.

Frank

@BlueBarren Its all hearsay, for sure.

But we should get confirmation or more details tomorrow.

If Monster Hunter is a launch title, I'm getting one.

Because that'll be MH gen2, or whatever they call it.

Yuuki

15:50

Yep. Monster Hunter and Zelda as launch titles? That's a done deal right there.

BlueBarren

If there is an MH title it's just going to be a 3DS game that's ported

I like playing 3U on Wii U but I'd prefer an actual game designed for that system because I'm a pleb who wants the best possible graphics and mechanics available on that system

Yuuki

@BlueBarren To be fair, "high-fidelity graphics" isn't on the top of anyone's list for "Reasons To Play Monster Hunter".

Private Pansy

On Sunless Skies art style failbettergames.com/…

That monster in the fog looks particularly interesting

Yuuki

Also, they made MH3U HD for the Wii U.

BlueBarren

@Yuuki it is for me to play another one, or just give it a couple of iterations then it won't matter to me

I played/own Unite, played 3U on Wii U and played/own 4U

I'm not going another one on the same platform unless major improvements occur (hopefully graphical)

I also feel like MHO has ruined me

seeing MH in CryEngine is beautiful

Frank

15:58

@BlueBarren 'tis, indeed.

But isn't in English anymore.

Yuuki

@Frank Oh, they stopped releasing updates?

Frank

They really don't want people decompiling their source code.

@Yuuki Encrypted the files.

Yuuki

Oh, they cracked down on them?

:|

Frank

And keep changing it with every update.

BlueBarren

@Frank does localizes really cost that much money that wouldn't get a return for the decent sized group of people who'd play in the west?

Frank

15:59

You can still play, but its a lot harder to understand now.

Yuuki

@BlueBarren I mean, they probably think that they'd have to set up servers in the West. Plus localization is a-spensive.

BlueBarren

@Frank It's weird because Tencent said they're okay with fans localizes the game for them but then they're super overprotective of the source code so then fans can't localize the game

@Yuuki shouldn't development cost more?

Frank

@BlueBarren Considering the fambase is rabid in Japan about MH, they'd want that level of commitment here to localize it.

BlueBarren

than localizing

Yuuki

@BlueBarren Sure, but both would cost money.

BlueBarren

16:00

@Frank But they're not even localizing it to Japan

Yuuki

Just because development is more expensive than localization doesn't mean that localization is cheap.

@BlueBarren Capcom probably won't let them release in Japan.

Since it'd compete with Frontier.

(Also the PC scene is a lot less of a thing in Japan)

Private Pansy

Xcode feels like a glorified text editor coming from the Intellij family of IDEs

BlueBarren

@Yuuki then that brings me back to my statement of isn't there enough fans in the West to warrant that localization?

@Yuuki I just dunno, okay? They are dumb because of stuff and things

:(

Jutschge

@BlueBarren In japan you have Japanese. In the west you'll have to translate to English, German, French, Italian etc... That's not too cheap. I mean they could just do english but half of europe would probably be upset.

Yuuki

@Jutschge You'd just need to hire one English translation team and one French translator.

The latter of whom would only contribute "Je suis monté".

BlueBarren

16:10

@Jutschge well I was mostly referring to North America but you right depending on how broad you want to localize

And I guess the UK and Australia because they speak English too

Jutschge

@BlueBarren Surprisingly enought the world isn't just 'murica. I feel like the internet sometimes forgets about that

BlueBarren

As a Canadian I agree

because apparently a lot of American video content isn't available in my geographic region

like Conan O'Brien for example

Yuuki

@Jutschge Je suis monté, never forget.

BlueBarren

@Yuuki what is monté?

Jutschge

@BlueBarren it's the default french shoutout if you manage to mount a monster

Yuuki

16:16

For some reason, French players tended to use the Insect Glaive and spam aerial attacks.

BlueBarren

right

Yuuki

And so they'd get a lot of mounts.

BlueBarren

I changed my default shoutouts

Yuuki

And so you'd see a lot of "Je suis monte".

BlueBarren

My mounting one was, "I'm taking her for a spin"

Yuuki

16:17

I can't remember what my current one is. But it used to be "Look Ma, no hands!" for awhile.

Jutschge

I usually use "Windy up here..." although I don't like mounting weapons/styles tbh

Yuuki

@Jutschge Aerial Greatsword is surprisingly fun.

Jutschge

I tried it... But i gotta be honest It just feels too fast for a greatsword IMO... I like the slow charge and prediction playstyle of the normal style

BlueBarren

honestly with 4U went your shout out for mounting should just be "don't attack it!"

Jutschge

Gotta say tho that Aerial Gunlance is great

Trent Hawkins

16:21

Loved attempting to mount as Heavy Bowgun. Smack the monster around AND reload? yes please.

BlueBarren

If I played more I would've gotten into ranged

it always seemed fun

Yuuki

@Jutschge Yeah, the issue I have with most Aerial styles is that you just end up spamming the aerial/vault attacks.

BlueBarren

I was longsword until 4U then I switched to glaive

Yuuki

I think Aerial CB is a bit different in that regard.

Since you still have to use your ground style to charge up the phials.

Aerial CB is actually a very different playstyle from normal CB.

Far moreso than most normal styles and their aerial counterparts.

16:27

@BlueBarren Played HBG in 4 because playing Melee yet again and re-grinding out all the same gear for the 2nd/3rd time in a row would have just been too tedious.

It's not bad, but keeping stocked up on all the ammo and organizing all the presets is a pain (and expensive).

BlueBarren

@TrentHawkins how does playing solo work out?

Sterno

@Wipqozn Remember when you were ~~cool~~ less awful and used to play Overwatch?

Yuuki

@BlueBarren A lot more dodging.

Also, removing HBG limiter makes a lot more sense solo.

Trent Hawkins

@BlueBarren Not too bad. It's initially a bit of a pain until you get the Palicos so that you aren't the monster(s)' only focus. And once you get your helpers you REALLY wish they were more durable.

But it's ultimately not too different. Dodge, learn openings, shoot when you can.

Yuuki

You should also expect to have less money than a Blademaster.

Although internal ammo has maybe helped mitigate that.

Trent Hawkins

16:36

@Yuuki internal ammo? (haven't played the latest iteration)

Yuuki

@TrentHawkins Bowguns now have internal ammo which is basically free bullets.

Each bowgun has a different internal ammo.

Trent Hawkins

@Yuuki aah, so more than just normal 1.

Yuuki

@TrentHawkins Not infinite though.

Like one bowgun might come with 10 or 15 shots of Internal Fire S.

Or whatever they call it.

And each hunt/mission/quest, you'd have that set amount free to use.

djsmiley2k

16:54

@Ronan then what's the problem :/

Ronan

@djsmiley2k The problem is that the future president of the united states is holding a unintelligible press conference and people are concerned.

fredley

@Ronan The problem is, especially as a citizen of another country, that concern achieves nothing. It's much better to remain an oblivious (to Trump), but happier human being

Wipqozn

I watched the first few minutes of his conference then read a book

Ronan

@fredley I disagree, but I'm not trying to convince you to do anything.

BlueBarren

@Yuuki limiter?

Yuuki

16:59

@BlueBarren Bowguns have limiters that you can remove to have different effects.

Removing LBG limiter removes Rapid Fire but allows you reload all shots at once.

Removing HBG limiter removes Crouching Fire but provides a large increase to attack rating.

BlueBarren

huh, how long have those been a thing?

Yuuki

@BlueBarren Since at least 3, probably earlier.

Oh, apparently it's no longer a thing in Generations?

Yuuki

@GodEmperorDune Yeah, but typos or not, it gets noticeably worse after that point.

To where I'm not certain I can consider all of the incoherency as typos.

GodEmperorDune

@Yuuki i mean that they may have already cleaned up the earlier parts but not had a chance on the more recent stuff yet

but yeah, his speeches are jarring to read

the sentence structures are all over the place

Yuuki

@GodEmperorDune Good point.

Wipqozn

Also I did tune in for the tail end of the conference and i see he's still planning to build that wall. I was hoping he'd drop that. I wonder if he'll get his own company to build it.

His plan to increase import fees for Mexico might be good. No idea if increasing them would help though and if it did if it wound up hurting other things in the process.

Late (it was from late December), but funny

I mean FREE WALL GUYS (with down payment at least) (it's not free)

Wipqozn

I mean if trump does bring back more factory jobs then all power to him for the specific thing, but robots stealing those jobs is probably a larger concern.

MBraedley

@Wipqozn Doing that would most likely require a renegotiation of NAFTA, which would probably not be so good for Canada.

@Wipqozn I would not be surprised if more manufacturing does come to the US, and with it, jobs. The problem is that those jobs will be much higher skilled than what the rust belt has been used to, and those that have lost manufacturing jobs might not be qualified. Also, there will be fewer positions overall.

Holy shit ACLU is grilling Sessions (they don't normally do this)

Kevin van der Velden

Q: When would I not want to use blitz combos?

I play in Active Mode and the combat in Final Fantasy 15 can be very fast paced with everything constantly moving. One great feature that the combat has is the Blitz Combos, which is essentially auto-attacking by holding down the attack button. Blitz Combos are great and allow for multiple hits...

He's still ongoing

Thank God

Tillerson will also probably hopefully take some time

So not only is there a Switch announcement tomorrow, there's also going to be a livestream hands-on experience event over the weekend.

BlueBarren

@Yuuki Treehouse Live

it'll probably be mostly Zelda

unless there's more first party Nintendo games to show off

Yuuki

@BlueBarren Yeah, one guy just posted that he got an invitation to play Zelda on the Switch.

BlueBarren

@Yuuki are you talking about that Reddit post? Because I saw that too, kind of pointless to post it on Reddit though

Yuuki

@BlueBarren Well, there's another pinned post about the livestreamed hands-on event.

Everyone who has a VR set needs to attach googly eyes to them.

BlueBarren

on r/Nintendo?

Yuuki

18:48

Oh my.

@SevenSidedDie how did you move those GIFs to stack.imgur? Take the old GIF URL and use the "upload image" feature and use the link for it?

BlueBarren

@Yuuki something about it seems off

murgatroid99

@TimmyJim Yeah, I think "upload image" in chat or a post is the only way to get something to stack.imgur

BlueBarren

@Yuuki and also should you really be putting a PC on wood?

Kevin van der Velden

@BlueBarren 1) he's not, and 2) sure, why not

You should probably ground the standoffs to the powersupply case but meh

BlueBarren

18:55

@KevinvanderVelden some of the components are sitting on wood, no? Well if some gets too hot could it light the wood on fire?

Kevin van der Velden

Maybe some fans? The rest is all on moetal/plastic bits

Sterno

I don't even
