In my previous question What is the server command to change Mann Missions? I ask how to change Mann Missions, and I learn that one must normally call a vote.
Unfortunately I can't figure out how to craft the command to vote to change Mann Missions. I tried typing in anything I could find in ...
I have a low level reptilian hide breeches of the bear that I crafted for my level 9 character. Now, I realize I will probably be finding or crafting a better pair of pants very shortly, but I find it extremely annoying that I can't equip this item.
I have tried removing my currently equipped pa...
@Alec It's basically a point and click adventure game, but you use WASD instead of point-and-click. That said, it's a pretty brutal game, and a lot of fun. But if you think it's something you wouldn't enjoy, no worries.
Fastest mode of manual Kerbal locomotion: Jump up, engage RCS thrusters for forward momentum, slide on face until friction reduces speed to zero. Stand up, repeat as necessary.
I only have weapons that cost ammo. I would like to break a box open. I would not like to use any ammo. Is there any way?
This is for the original Deus Ex.
In Starcraft 2, SCVs (the basic Terran building and gathering unit) move around and through the buildings that they are constructing as the building process takes place. Is this movement deterministic or is it pseudorandom?
Note that I don't mean to get into a philosophical discussion about det...
Is there an upper limit to the amount of wood/ore/grain/livestock/oil/etc. produced in Open-TTD? I notice that many of my industries tend towards the same number but I'm not sure if there's an end to the amount it can produce.
I assume that, if yes, the industries that require inputs will also s...
Is it possible to transport 100% of the items that an industry produces? The closest I seem to get is in the mid-90s as seen here:
If so, how can one achieve this holy grail?
I have reloaded from saves three times now, but the same thing happens. I currently have Red Eagle's Fury equipped, but as soon as I fast travel anywhere it just ups and disappears from my inventory. Could I somehow have dropped it?
Though all that seems to trigger it is fast travelling, and wh...
Not a question.
Just wanted to say thanks for the awesome package. I have an absolutely new favorite shirt.
Seriously though, definitely appreciate it. Keep up the good work!
I want to make the game a little more competitive. One advanced option I will trial Raging Barbarians. While there is no doubt this setting will keep me on my toes. Does it suppress the AI even more by destroying all its roaming units and slowing it down with tile pillaging?
Is this setting a "f...
@Fluttershy Except not really, the DLC is stuff that's done after the game goes gold so that the development team isn't kicked to the curb because there's nothing to do between gold master and release; this has been detailed in several articles on places like GamaSutra
I just started playing civilization 5. i gave a gift a of gold to a city-state, and it worked, and we became friends. when my influence started to go down, i attempted to give another gift of gold, but each time i click on it, it just takes me back to the previous screen. I tried closing down ...
When I pull up that in-game stats window in Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, there's a "team" column. It's empty for most users, but for some it includes a team/clan tag like users in others games would prepend to their name.
I went through the in-game settings, but I don't see any place to spe...
I bought The Legend of Zelda for Virtual Console and my problem is, that I can't select any item on the b button in the subscreen.
Of course I read the discription that says me, I should use the d-pad (I use the Wiimote) but it don't work.
I also tried a gc-controller and it's the same effect.
Al...
"Origin doesn't install anything that a reasonable person would consider malware/nasty." Unless you buy Street Fighter X Tekken. Then it installs Street Fighter X Tekken. — Joe WreschnigJun 2 at 19:09
Version 1.1 of Batman: Arkham City Lockdown supposedly added iCloud syncing. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear to be enabled for me. When I view my Documents and Data stored in iCloud, I'm not seeing any Batman: Arkham City Lockdown save files. **How do I enable iCloud syncing?
btw, @pixel, what's the situation like in Bristol? I have a friend spending a month there and he's kind of worried by stuff like gangs/hooligans/people killing to kill boredom/whatever.
I am in the process of configuring a Counterstrike: Global Offensive server and I was wondering if the game mode and game type can be changed on the fly, preferably from within the game by calling a vote, without restarting the server process?
Currently I am running the server in Classic Competi...
Just downloaded slenderman but i can't play the game because it says "No soundcard detected.Sound might not play". It continues to show this message again and again. I had to kill the process to end the message.
Can i play slenderman without having any soundcard installed in my pc?
P.S. This ...
I am in the process of configuring a Counterstrike: Global Offensive server and I was wondering if it is possible to change the active map group while the server is running, without having to restart the server process?

I am in the process of configuring a Counterstrike: Global Offensive server and I was wondering if it was possible to disable certain weapons (for example, the AWP) or enforce certain weapons under particular conditions like it was in Counterstrike: Source*?

I have been trying to run WoW on Ubuntu 12.04. When I run it on unity, the frame rate is very low and it is impossible to play. Although, when I launch it on gnome shell, for some reason, the frame rate gets very high and the playing experience is very comfortable.
The problem is that I prefer r...
it's been almost a month I've installed ubuntu
I can't afford windows cd anymore
it is my fault that I didn't dual boot it but,
it doesn't make sense in that I can't use my own graphic card in my own computer

now it's going to grind my SSD by optimising game files
stupid blizzard launcher
Your world of warcraft must be optimised before you can play, this process takes 15-60 minutes and cannot be cancelled once started, are you sure you want to continue?
Guess what Blizzard's launcher doesn't do before starting this process that can't be cancelled?
I am setting up a Counterstrike: Global Offensive server and I was wondering if I could increase the length of the warm up around? Currently it is about 30 seconds but I'd like to customise this yet can't find any setting that allows this.
I assume this would be something that is customised per...
Many users use SSD disks (and i believe many more in the future) for their OS. 128GB ssd disks are common place nowadays and many users (like me) use their ssd for dual booting (win and ubuntu). Ubuntu in istallations like this occupies 20-40 GB (/ , /home and swap). Up to now there was no proble...
Can someone recommend some good free screen capture software? I'm only going to be recording some gameplay for my YouTube channel. Fraps doesn't seem to record on my system. CamStudio has s very low FPS (unless someone knows a fix or good codec?)
I remember seeing a lot of cool Counter Strike videos back in the day. How do you go about recording your gameplay (any game) into an easy to edit format? Do you need special software? How much does it cost?
What's the easiest way to tell a guy you've known for ages that you don't like him that way without ripping his heart out and dancing on it in front of him?
One of my friends who I only see as a friend that I've known for like 8 years has been trying to get awfully close recently
and he's currently in the process of trying to invite himself over to my house
Been playing Earthbound a lot more recently and this play through I've had a lot more encounters with the Photographer (Fuzzy Pickles).
Is there ways to trigger him to appear/avoid him?
Thanks.
I haven't posted here before but I came across a problem, when I save a map in hammer as .bsp it end up being over 10x bigger than all of the source files put together, I found the source for one map rp_downtown_v2.bsp, which the map is 2mb but when I used the source and compiled it in hammer its...
In general, when talking to guys, it's best to be clear and direct since we suck at reading between the lines, transcribing subliminal messages or subtle clues.
That said, most of Giz's commentary is clearly overreaction of the sort that people who have never seen a retail training manual might make - the stuff about empathy and verbal jiujitsu nonsense is standard practice all over the place and it's hardly brainwashing.
That said, the part about "institutionalized passive aggression" is so dead on it fucking hurts and is giving me nightmare flashbacks.
I remember the day I got "fearless feedback" from a member of my stores management team that he wasn't fond of my facial hair and thought all staff should be clean shaven. I told him to show me where that was in the company dress code or to shove it.
I am playing the Legend of Zelda - A Link To The Past and I was wondering how many magic bottles you can get in total - I have three already but there looks like there is space for a fourth one?
I have completed the game many times and have never found more than three.
Is there a fourth magic b...
I can't find the stone of barenziah in the Black Briar Lodge. I've never been to Lodge before. When I went upstairs to the Master Bedroom, it's not there next to the bed. Any method to make it appear there or a console command to add it to collection? I've found 23 or the 24 stones.
I am halfway through the medievil era. I am most of the way through researching Physics.
I just recruited a spy. It was not via building a wonder.
What triggers my first spy to be recruited?
Didn't the Nexus 7 come out recently? If I found a use case for a tablet (so far, nothing I do needs one and a lot of what I do isn't even possible or way too hard), I might be tempted. :D
BTW, nice that you can actually read Gizmodo without JavaScript now. It took them a few years to do it, but they did! :D
@StrixVaria You can't make me. :P (I recognize its contribution as a story-centric FPS to the genre, but like Deus Ex, I found it too slow to keep my attention. Liked the plot summaries I've read, though.)
and after my first playthrough of any game like Diablo 1/2/3 I'm unable to pay attention to anything like that
and after 5-10 wipes during any progression in raiding where there doesn't appear to be any progression going on I become completely unable to continue playing
Well, I'm a guild wars fanboy, so my opinion is highly biased. But it does seem like GW2 has gotten a lot of press attention and sales. Seemed like a good opportunity.
(I also fully acknowledge my tastes are not in line with the mainstream and the primary goal of the contests is to drive traffic to Arqade, not drive attention to good games.)
user15026
@RilgonArcsinh Haha, me too - I havent been able to participate in many if any of the contests, but I get delightedly excited every damn time because holy crap they made us a cool thing and it is awesome
@AshleyNunn That said, this does not preclude me from being snarky as all get out. :P (I do keep my "where the hell is the Rift/TSW/PSO2/BL2 contests shakefist" to a sarcastic minimum.)
user15026
@RilgonArcsinh Eh, I figure being snarky over something as awesome as them spending a buttload of money and time on our site is just counterproductive, and kinda rude
@AshleyNunn True, but I am snarky about basically everything, and if cornered about it, genuinely do acknowledge and appreciate the time/finances/energy put in.
@AshleyNunn If we get a green sky, that means the primary element that makes up our atmosphere is no longer oxygen, and we have larger things to worry about than going, "Ooh, green sky."
@AnnaLear 'tis. I've got many cool idea rattling around around in my brain.
And hence why I have to keep it occupied. I leave it alone, the thought process gets trainwrecked into a strange idea, and then the idea part takes it and runs with it.
And spits out this solution to the train wreck problem that is both horrifying and awesome at the same time.
user15026
@fbueckert Your brain sounds like an interesting place to be
@fbueckert does that result in a loop? the new idea is also awesome so you go and immediately think of how it would be possible to make that awesome idea, which then gets train wrecked into an even more twisted idea that is awesome, which you then immediately think of how it would be possible to make...?
@pixel US policy is crazy by itself, but Blizzard can do something about it, like transferring all the deals through a fully-owned company outside of US jurisdiction or licensing the game to someone who doesn't have to deal with such stupidity.
Inside the game you can type in a document ID to bring up any log entry regardless of whether or not the AI has granted you access to them. This can be used to "cheat" your way to 100% completion without going through the game multiple times.
What's the list of such IDs? I don't feel like playin...
@YiJiang Yes, this. It's about women condition in Korea SPAAAAAAAAAAACE.

Augh. I will not be tempted to get the Kirby Anniversary Edition. I will not be tempted to get the Kirby Anniversary Edition. I will not be....oh who am I kidding I will probably pick it up.
Nothing better than "The player is set to find out as much as they can about humanity's first generation ship that was supposed to create the first interstellar colony and instead went dark for hundreds of years without reaching its destination."
