Q: My shield disappeared during my jailbreak!

I got arrested for stealing in the town of Didenhil in Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning and I then went and escaped from jail. After grabbing my equipment I ran out of town and did some other stuff. However I noticed that after all this happened that my shield (a very nice kite shield with a def of ...

I feel like I'm the only one not excited for ME3.

@Wipqozn +1

agent86

@RavenDreamer so... if you think ME3 is great when it comes out, does that mean I'm going to be unimpressed by it? If so, don't play ME3, kthxbai

Raven Dreamer

12:03 AM

@agent86 I already think ME3 is great.

Raven Dreamer

Especially after I had an epiphany about the combat system.

Mana

@RavenDreamer Epiphany = just use the sword?

badp

Also, SE, please make me a Realm of the Mad God question where I can post this as the answer

agent86

@RavenDreamer damn you

Raven Dreamer

12:06 AM

@Mana I think you're thinking Halo.

agent86

I am going to like this game, even if it means I make the internet divide by zero

Raven Dreamer

@badp "I found this picture in chat. Explain it to me."

Mana

@RavenDreamer Well, hey. Shepard does have an arm blade thing.

badp

@RavenDreamer At 16×16 your avatar degenerates to a mirrored trollface. Are you aware?

Wipqozn

@badp "Can someone post that diagram @badp made?"

badp

12:06 AM

@RavenDreamer I said answer, not question

Raven Dreamer

@badp All part of the subtle irony.

And then I can

expand it

Mana

@RavenDreamer I still think this one was better

badp

@Mana I vote for the face that the comic is covering.

Wipqozn

@badp I second this.

@badp is a mod, so his vote is absolute.

badp

@Wipqozn Oh you'd be surprised.

Q: How can I change my default login to the Cerberus network (EA Online)

When I originally bought and installed Mass Effect 2 two years ago, I had a different password to log in to my EA Online account. When I bought Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, I changed my password to something that was theoretically more secure since I didn't want all of my epic loots st...

pc mass-effect-2

I recently asked this question, and at the time I thought it was being caused by something other than it was. Now I'm pretty sure it has to do with windows 7 settings. Should I close it?

Not sure if that sort of "tech support" question is good for the site

Rapida

@Sterno I want you to answer that question so I can fix my stupid Mass Effect 2

badp

@Sterno No, you should answer it?

Sterno

@badp I haven't fixed it yet! :)

@Rapida Same problem?

badp

@Sterno Then comment with what you've got!

Rapida

@Sterno Mine tries to log in and than fails. I then have to type in my account and password (can't even tab to different fields on that stupid UI)

Sterno

12:17 AM

@badp Well I was getting ready to update the question but I wasn't sure if it still fit the site

@Rapida Yeah, exact same problem

badp

...why wouldn't it?

Sterno

alright, I'll update.

@badp Because tech support type questions could easily end up in the too localized category. Though it sounds like this one isn't

@Rapida You can try some stuff in this thread if you want though it didn't seem to work for me. Describes the same problem though

Rapida

@Sterno Thanks, I'll give it a shot

GnomeSlice

@RavenDreamer What did you need?

badp

@Sterno they're not

Raven Dreamer

12:25 AM

@GnomeSlice Nothing. Just letting you know I won't have more info about potentially making music for an iOS game until Friday.

Way too many conditionals. >.<

GnomeSlice

I know that feel, Bro.

@RavenDreamer Sure, no problem.

Sterno

@Rapida Ug. Now it works. And I'm not sure which thing did it.

GnomeSlice

> Unintelligible speech? I know that feel, bro.

Rapida

@Sterno If you post what you did I can try them and report back which fixes it.

GnomeSlice

Q: Does armor weight matter with custom (orange) gear?

As a quest reward, my Jedi Guardian was offered the choice of two orange robes, one heavy armor, the other medium. They appeared cosmetically identical in the gear preview window. Since the stat values of orange gear is governed by the doodads slotted in them, it made me wonder why the choice o...

@Rapida Alright, will do

fireDude67

this is too confusing for me. goodbye ;)

@fireDude67 Nice santa hat.

Christmas is over though.

Raven Dreamer

12:29 AM

@GnomeSlice Because Batman, that's why.

Oops, sorry.

Ugh, Go away evil I know how that feels bro pictures

They didnt make sense the first time I saw em!

Raven Dreamer

@GnomeSlice What is that ball?

GnomeSlice

@RavenDreamer Pluto, I would assume.

Raven Dreamer

Ah, good call.

GnomeSlice

12:33 AM

@badp can you do something with the FS trello, I have to go do some things.

@RavenDreamer Took me a minute too.

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice yeah, @ArdaXi and I finished our game but I never was able to do anything on the page.

Sterno

@Rapida Answer is up

Moonlighter

Lol at some guys being here all day long.

Sterno

@Moonlighter You want to League of Legends them? They'll probably accept your challenge.

Moonlighter

@sterno what's that ?

agent86

12:42 AM

@Moonlighter there's... a way to not be here all day long?

Sterno

League of Legends

League of Legends is an action RTS video game developed and published by Riot Games for Microsoft Windows, inspired by the popular DotA All-Stars. map for Warcraft III. It was first announced on October 7, 2008, and released on October 27, 2009. The game was in a closed beta from April 10, 2009, to October 22, 2009. It then transitioned to open beta until release. Gameplay General Players are formed into 2 even teams of Champions, 3v3 or 5v5. there are 92 different released champions. Each team starts at opposing sides of a map in an area called the Spawning Pool, near what is calle...

Rapida

@Sterno The first part works, didn't have to run the second command

agent86

@Moonlighter he was poking fun at your use of "LOL" which also stands for "League of Legends"

Sterno

@Rapida Cool. I'll remove it from my answer.

Rapida

I'm on league now >_>

Sterno

12:43 AM

@Rapida The sad part is I'd actually tried this part yesterday, but I think I did step 6 before 5 and screwed it up

Rapida

@Sterno I've always heard order of operations can be important

Moonlighter

@agent86 Wow.That's how nerdy a person can get ? coool :D I wonder what other slangs i cannot use...

Wipqozn

Does anyone have any ideas on how to improve the title to my question?

Q: What happens to cities recieved through a trade?

It's possible to trade cities to other civilizations, but what actually happens? Is the city considered annexed as if you conquered it, or does it behave like a normal city as if you built it yourself?

civilization-5

agent86

@Wipqozn what is the status of... perhaps?

Sterno

@rapida Well, I hadn't been reading that forum post yesterday. I'd tried that on my own. I just didn't expect it to "forget" your setting after manually logging in.

agent86

12:44 AM

or "state"

Wipqozn

oh, I think I have it

"Are cities received through a trade treated the same as conquered cities?"

Actually, no.

That's too specific and not what I'm asking.

@agent86 maybe

I like it better than my current one.

I actually dislike my entire body the more I read it.

Although I'm slowly making it better.

user4704

Evening, people.

Wipqozn

Good evening Mr. Petrie

Grace Note

Evenin'

user4704

I hope you all signed up for my beta.

Wipqozn

12:52 AM

whoa, what?

user4704

If you did not, you are dead to me. >:|

Wipqozn

you work for ArenaNet?

user4704

Yeah, I'm the lead engineer for the shared technology team.

Grace Note

Did you... give us somewhere to sign up for a beta?

Wipqozn

@JoshPetrie: You're now awesome.

user4704

12:53 AM

@GraceNote beta.guildwars2.com I suppose

Wipqozn

As to your question, yes. I signed up 15 minutes after the beta opened.

Grace Note

Oh. That kind of thing. So, I guess I'm dead to you at the moment

user4704

Nice job! You are not dead to me.

Wipqozn

It would have been 6 minutes but your servers were having problems.

user4704

Oh yeah, they had some strain.

Wipqozn

12:54 AM

Yeah, I figured that was it.

Grace Note

I like Guild Wars but having never played the first I'm not yet interested in the second. No one's really sold me on it.

agent86

on average a skyrim question on this site gets around 5,000 views.

Grace Note

You lost your helmet

agent86

@GraceNote talking to me? I didn't lose it, I know precisely where it is. The story's longer than that, but not particularly interesting.

@GraceNote don't say that too loudly near @FallenAngelEyes, and by all means don't ping her and show her this message. You'd probably never hear the end of it.

Grace Note

You put it on at Raven's suggestion, I know that much. Didn't know your plans for length is all

Q: What is the state of cities recieved through a trade?

It's possible to trade cities to other civilizations, but I'm uncertain how cities received through a trade behave. Do they suffer any penalties compared to cities I built myself, or do they behave the same?

civilization-5

Wipqozn

@JoshPetrie: Are you allowed to comment on when the beta might start?

Grace Note

@agent86 If she thinks she can sell me on it, then by all means she should do so.

user4704

@Wipqozn Yes, but my comment will be "no comment." Sorry :)

agent86

@GraceNote yep, I just kind of prefer my avatar unmolested by headgear, unless there are special circumstances. he also got on me the other day for stealing his schtick.

Wipqozn

@JoshPetrie haha, clever. I figured that was the case, but thought it was worth a shot.

Grace Note

12:57 AM

@agent86 ...for doing what he suggested you do?

agent86

@GraceNote his interpretation of events is decidedly different from mine.

Grace Note

I see

agent86

@GraceNote I'm glad someone does :P

Grace Note

I didn't take the Mediator class for naught, y'know.

badp

@GnomeSlice Sorry, I was busy learning what a pain train is

For the unaware, it's more or less this:

Grace Note

12:59 AM

PAIN TRAIN'S A COMIN'!

badp

@GraceNote Pretty much. The map has a big road in it. A mob of people do laps of it while spamming fire in all directions. Kill experience is shared between neighbours, not split, so...

Q: Alternative to windows game explorer

OS: Win7 I use game explorer now but I would really like something similar that looks better and has more functionality, such as maybe XBMC but for games. Is there an alternative or do I have to stick with game explorer?
