Does anybody know why I do not have sound in Super Streetfighter IV AE:2012?
It is really strange. The Windows Live sound is still available.
If someone comes online I hear the usual beep sound.

Q: Who to kill the Gluttonous Thresher

WarfaceSeriously getting on my nerves right now. I'm level 16 and can't get to kill it. I use my sabber turrent to break its shield but after that I can only deal like 200 damage and after a short time its shield regen. I died like 20 times and it's taking all my saving !!! Is there any strategy wit...

But neither game music nor sound effects get played.
I searched for a solution, updated my sound drivers and tried to activate compatibilty mode, but no effect.
user15026
@origamirobot I loved Silence in the Library and The Doctor's Wife. Loved then.
user15026
@James yeah this season is lacking in something to tie all these stories together really - like the whole crack in the wall or the disappearing astronait
@AshleyNunn WHO CARES? SOUFFLE GIRL!
00:14
I never thought the whole arc thing was particularly intriguing
@AshleyNunn Yup
@OrigamiRobot Shes an effing dalek!
user15026
@yijiang I like shows better when they have them, especially scifi.
user15026
@origamirobot yeah I really want to know what is going on there.
@AshleyNunn Maybe I'm a little jaded, but the end results have almost always been disappointing
@James She is also going to be the new companion. Deal with it.
00:24
@OrigamiRobot The actress is the new companion.. The character is not
The question is will they bring her in like they did Amy (Just ignore she was a priestess in Volcano Day) or like they did with Gwen Cooper and cite her ancestory
SSFIVAE2012... yeah
user15026
@James I forgot about them ignoring that. I suspect this is getting more attention because of the whole announcement of her existence, but I might be wrong (I wasn't paying much attention to the fan domain back when Amy was introduced)
@AshleyNunn I honestly think its more of a case of they filmed the first episode
And then said Hey ya know what? She would make a good companion and so hired her on
user15026
00:43
@James yeah I have no idea if it is even going to come up at all. Interested to see what happens.

Q: How does the shared stash work?

FluttershyIn Torchlight 2 you have access to your regular stash, as well as a thing called a "shared stash". Torchlight 2 also has multiplayer, which is something the first one lacked. This shared stash has me curious. Do items in your shared stash only go toward your own characters? Or can other player...

01:58
Judging by the answers, this bounty is going to be completely wasted. People just want to link to the wiki.
@Sterno I'm assuming you've played the first Borderlands, right?
Though that did turn out to be rather a larger list than I expected
@Fluttershy Yeah. Though I didn't pay much attention then
@Sterno If the comments are correct, that there are hundreds of these text, then I don't think this is the right place to document them
@Sterno I was about to say... Your request for the list in your bounty is... extremely broad given the level of randomization on weapons in the game.
@YiJiang If there are hundreds, I agree
@Fluttershy This has nothing to do with randomization
02:01
@Sterno You sure? Because that red text looks more like a random selection of words than an actual... thing... But I can't read it very well.
user2334
@Sterno The bounty is also a separate question from the actual question
user2334
You ask what the general idea behind the red text is, everyone answered that question; the bounty now wants a list
user2334
it's like a backdoor NC question

Q: What are the Force powers available in Clone Wars Adventures?

Max NocerinoYeah I played the free version of Clone Wars Adventures online and was given a Jedi avatar, Attack 1: Lightsaber slash and shortly gained Attack 2: Force push. I noticed 6 other boxes for Force powers. Doesa anybody know what they are?

@MarkTrapp Eh. It seemed 50/50 if I asked the question "What does all the red text mean?" it would get closed as a dupe of "Does the red text mean anything?"
I don't see a terribly compelling reason to make those separate.
@Fluttershy It's not a random selection of words.
Though I guess if I asked "What are all the unique properties" instead of the words "red text", it'd be fine. Careful wording ftw!
user2334
02:14
"What's the point of the red text?" is wholly separate from "Give me a list of all the red texts": not sure how that's not patently obvious. The former is easily answered in the SE format, and was. The latter is what GameFAQs/Wikia is for. Heck, one guy even gave you the link to the appropriate Wikia page
whatevs, either way it'll get pointed to the borderlands wiki. I think it'll work out as is
@MarkTrapp Actually, EVERY GUY gave me that link
And it's because I was expecting the list to be like 20 things tops. Not a bajillion
user2334
Had you asked "Give me a list of all the red texts" in the first place, and knowing that the list is probably hundreds deep, it would've been closed as NC or NARQ
@MarkTrapp Again, I did not know the list was hundreds deep.
Atm, it's 66 on the wiki. Which I still agree is too large
Anyway, my entire point was that it was a wasted bounty. Which I think we can all agree it is. :)
user2334
NO WE MUST BEAT THIS HORSE INTO THE GROUND
@Sterno btw that bounty was wasted, just saying
02:19
@MarkTrapp There might be a unique mod for that.
user2334
was the bounty wasted, confirm/deny
That bounty was as useful as Billie Piper is talented!
(ie: not very)
user2334
tbh while I think 100 dkp minus is a sufficient penalty for a bad bounty, it seems like it does more harm than good being there and should probably be refunded
Or just deleted.
user2334
can't delete bounties, only refund, award, or let expire
02:21
I think the bounty I put on that DOTA2 question was wasted as well, it failed to attract any attention to the question at all
My problem was looking at the linked wiki page a day or two ago when I asked the question, which was mostly empty, and not checking again today before posting the bounty.
@Sterno what? the rest of the internet is not as up-to-date as Arqade? Seen that before...
03:08
@pixel I am blaming you for the fact that I am about to start watching Babylon 5 again.
@LessPop_MoreFizz I reject your attempt to place blame on me
Also, I had forgotten how awful The Gathering is at times.
B5 really did spend roughly it's first ~10-15 hours or so awkwardly stumbling into figuring out how to be a good tv show.
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz I find the first season of B5 to be the most painful - I only stuck with it because my then wife was like OMG I SWEAR IT DOES GET BETTER
user15026
She was right.
Oh, I know it does. And there are a few flashes of brilliance, even in that first year.

Q: How does dual wielding affect skills which depend on "weapon DPS?"

Brian GordonIs the right-hand weapons DPS used? Is an average taken? Is it the min or max of the two?

But it's the difference between accidentally being great, and doing it deliberately in seasons 2-5
That said, even at it's worst, the first season is worlds better than the pilot movie, which is what I'm watching now.
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz Yeah, that is definitely the truth of it.
Holy shit the original XO/Doctor were awful awful casting.
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz I don't remember if I have seen the pilot movie - I know we discussed watching it, way back, but I can't recall if her and I ever did watch it. Considering I don't remember a single bit of it, I am assuming we didn't. Should I go back and subject myself to it?
@AshleyNunn It provides some interesting narrative background
but nothing major.
Everyone meets Kosh for the first time
user15026
03:23
@LessPop_MoreFizz Oh, right - I know there were some details of that that she had to explain to me later on - I think the show explained whatever it was I wanted to know in some detail, but I am the type of person who wants to know every little thing about something that I like. It's a flaw.
Yeah, I getcha.
Not Ivanova is so terrible.
user15026
The amount of research I have done into the show and the characters and the history and such is kinda ridiculous.
And Not Franklin isn't much better.
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz I can imagine.
user15026
Hm. Debating if asking something about the Zombies, Run! app is ontopic for here - it is kinda sorta a game, and kinda sorta a story thing, and kinda sorta a fitness thing...so I have no idea XD Considering I am asking about mission unlocks, it feels appropriate here.
user15026
03:25
oh, what the hell. I will ask it, and if it gets closed, it gets closed.
user15026
Oh, someone else also asked a Zombies, Run! question. I feel less worried now.
@AshleyNunn Thankfully, Londo still chews up scenery as well as he ever will.
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz That's one saving grace.
@AshleyNunn It's the most important saving grace.
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz Is this what makes watching it bearable?
03:30
Well, among other things. (Mainly the knowledge that it is the beginning of something that will improve substantially.)
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz Yeah, I suspect that helps. Now I want to watch it again - I haven't watched any of it since last December when it was my entertainment while I cross stitched a thousand things for Christmas presents.
@AshleyNunn Also, there's G'Kar's relentless pursuit of Narn telepaths, in which he seeks to purchase Lyta's generic material... Cloning is doable, but difficult. Direct mating is preferable, as it is more... "cost effective".
user15026
@LessPop_MoreFizz You do what you gotta do, I suppose...
@LessPop_MoreFizz Oh man, are we talking about Babylon 5.
03:36
I love that show.
cancels download immediately
I'm watching the pilot atm. Gonna rewatch the whole series.
user15026
@GnomeSlice It is pretty awesome.
@pixel Even a broken clock... yadda yadda
@LessPop_MoreFizz I did that a little while ago, should rewatch it again. Got them all on DVD.
03:37
I hate that whenever I go to bed I become more awake, but whenever I go and do something else I immediately get tired again
Sick. Bed. Night.

Q: When can I do the supply missions?

Ashley NunnI super love "playing" Zombies, Run! - the story missions are fun and are getting me outside and exercising, which is super cool.

Q: How do I enable the console?

pixelI have read that there is a developer console in Torchlight II, but can't find how to enable it - there doesn't appear to be a keybind for it that I can see in the game options. Is this something that needs to be enabled with a command line parameter before I launch the game?

Q: Where is the most effective spot to item farm?

KlokworkkHaving beaten the main story quests of the game, I'm now running around mopping up side quests and preparing for a second playthrough of the game. I was curious where some of the best item farming places are in the game so I can deck out my character before starting playthrough 2.

Q: Is there a way to get back into Marcus' hidden loot room?

KlokworkkAfter completing a main story quest, you're teleported back to Sanctuary into a room underneath Marcus's shop. This room is full of chests and other lootable boxes. Is it possible to somehow enter this room a second time for more loot in one playthrough?

Q: Do boss or boss encounters respawn?

KlokworkkIs it possible to return to a point of a boss fight or encounter and redo the fight after you've completed the associated quests? Would certainly make farming for good items much easier.

12:38
@pixel 1x512. The reduction in hassle is worth the extra money (at least to me)
what hassle?
I can't wait for SSDs to be affordable so I can buy all the HDDs for practically nothing.
I don't mind waiting an extra 5 seconds for my computer to boot.
I don't mind
It is rather nice to have it boot up in under 8 seconds though
doesn't really affect me that much since my PCs usually have 30day+ uptimes
I never reboot mine anyway.
12:44
It's not only boot time, but everything is faster, especially when you're doing multiple things at the same time
yeah I have an SSD for my OS drive atm
@MadScientist Negligibly
I moved to SSD recently, the difference is amazing
I wouldn't want to miss my SSD
Programs start up ridiculously fast
12:44
and 2x 1tb western digital green drives in raid 0 for storing crap on
I'd never go back to a non-ssd drive for my OS drive
It's the single most noticeable upgrade I ever did to my computer
PS6 starts in a couple of seconds on my otherwise 3 year old laptop
@MadScientist yeah I'll agree with that
@MadScientist Me too
my latest SSD purchase is going to be for storing applications
primarily games
although I have WoW on my SSD already
12:45
I keep Minecraft on mine...
but I have no issues with getting two smaller drives and running them in raid 0
or having one larger drive, or whatever
Maybe @IanPugsley just got a bum SSD because I can't tell a difference between his machine and mine.
@pixel I'd avoid RAID due to the TRIM stuff. Maybe that has gotten better now, but if it hasn't I'd avoid two drives due to that.
mk
@OrigamiRobot operating system on an SSD is a definitively noticeable difference, literally more than a 100% or higher improvement on boot times
granted I'm using the experience of switching to an SSD which also included reinstalling Windows, which will make an improvement by itself
12:48
3 mins ago, by Mad Scientist
It's not only boot time, but everything is faster, especially when you're doing multiple things at the same time
Yeah, I notice the SSD on my OS, but for gaming, the impact is pretty minimal.
I notice the impact of running WoW off an SSD
its negligible until you get a loading screen, and with an SSD its like 'what loading screen?'
but I run all of my applications off a normal hard disk
That's true. I never have time to read those little loading screen tips that appear.
so its only mainly windows stuff that runs fast
then again I don't have anything like office or graphics or video applications installed
Cubase loads in like a second
I have everything on my SSD (I run a tight ship), it's wonderful
12:51
@MadScientist anandtech.com/show/6161/… <- apparently not fixed in general but getting there
@fredley that's why I want another ~500gb of SSD, to put all of my applications on SSDs and just have hard disks for storage
@pixel I use HDDs only for cold-storage/backup. My music is on Google Music, from which I listen to it, and Movies all stored on my Pi-based XBMC machine.
I don't trust my internet connectivity to rely on storing stuff I use on the internet
I have more TV shows than movies, and more music than TV+Movies combined
measured in GB
Every time I see a screenshot of a WOW Panda, it hurts.
Every time I log into WoW Panda I laugh
and tonight when little pandas start running around everything it will be hilarious
@pixel I tend to watch TV series once then delete them, most shows are good, but I wouldn't watch again.
when I get bored/can't sleep/many other different circumstances I usually watch stuff I know off by heart
it's why I've seen every invader zim/futurama episode literally 100+ times
@pixel I usually read in these circumstances. If I can't sleep sometimes I'll audiobook
can't sleep -> tv on -> futurama queued up -> title music plays -> .oO( zzzzzzz )
I've got a fever, and the only prescription is more XCOM.
XCOM isn't out yet, did you mean X-COM?

No. It's just going to take me two weeks to get my medicine
oh ok
53% away from free copy of Civilization V
@pixel Hmmm?
@pixel 47% of the way towards
@YiJiang XCOM pre-order bonus
@fredley same difference
It doesn't matter if the glass is half full or half empty if it's full of piss.
13:07
I don't understand the use as a metaphor for optimism/pessimism when obviously the glass is not fit for purpose and should be replaced with something more adequately sized
@pixel Civ V has been on sale so many times for 75% off
@YiJiang I own Civ V + G&K
I think you're misunderstanding 'free'
it means that I can give it away to somebody without buying it again
I'm not sure if I understand the math here. 47% of free ($0) is still $0
Also, nobody likes my SPAZ questions :(

Got frustrated when I kept losing a particular fight

Q: Are blueprints found on the black market unique?

Yi JiangIn other words, if a blueprint for a certain module is in a station and I don't obtain it from there, will any other stations in the galaxy carry it? Obviously if this is the case, then I won't have to destroy every hostile station that also happen to be a shop, which would make life much easier.

@AnnaLear *groan*

@YiJiang Nope, but I gave you an upvote!
@AnnaLear Too easy and too soon imply that there might be a point in the future when that joke might be acceptable.

Hey guys (and girls) how can it be that the user "Community" rejects an edit suggestion? I mean how does that make sense? Does the service think "oh its that guy called patrickstalder i don't like him... lets reject him!..."? :) Or am I just stupid, which is mostly the case...
14:02

@PatrickStalder the word 'love' is interchangable with 'hate' in @OrigamiRobot's last comment

Q: How does the secret room system work in Torchlight 2?

ZolomonI wonder how the secret room system work. Do secret rooms exist in the "main world" or only in instances?

@OrigamiRobot It seems like I am the only exception to this "love" thing.... and @pixel is probably right just that in general the robots hate me more than they love me....
@PatrickStalder hugs
14:04
Maybe it's just negative love. Similar to an negative progress. I'm about to understand the system.
@OrigamiRobot I must assume that you stab me in the back with a knife when you hug me but still, thank you. But it kinda does not solve my question... :)
@PatrickStalder gasp I would never!
user15026
@OrigamiRobot LIES, yesterday you told me we weren't friends anymore, and I know you are friends with people here still and that IS NOT EQUAL.
@AshleyNunn Then one of those assumptions is obviously false.
user15026
@OrigamiRobot >.> which one?
Your choice.
14:07
@Community Why do you hate me?! What did I do to you?!
user15026
@OrigamiRobot Fine, I choose being friends because that is more fun
Your decision has been noted. This contract is sealed.

@OrigamiRobot I think you might have a point there.
@MadScientist Yes I assumed that somebody did another edit due to the edit history, because a rejection would most likely show the persons name. But where is my justice?! I NEED rep to keep living :( But your answer still shows that humans > robots! :)
@PatrickStalder If they select "improve" it doesn't show the user but community. But edit collisions are also a likely source of that

@OrigamiRobot I wasn't disagreeing with you
@Fluttershy The question asker approved the edit. ><

Q: Phone calls to the past - The Long Game

pixelIn the Doctor Who episode 'The Long Game' (Doctor Who 2005, Season 1, Episode 7), Adam makes multiple phone calls from the future back to his own time, leaving a message on his parents answering machine. Is there something in the plot that explains how a phone call can be made through time and s...

What if his name is Hitler?
user15026
@OrigamiRobot It's unlikely.
Then his parents made a rather distasteful decision when he was born
Just sayin

Q: X-COM release date: October 9 or October 11?

RobertoI read everywhere that X-COM will be released on October 9, but on Steam it says to me that will be available on October 11. Is October 9 the date for US and 11 for the other countries?

@Lazers 1994
@pixel I'm pretty sure this was explained.
@OrigamiRobot It must have been in one of those really boring episodes before that one
@pixel Is that the latest episode you've watched?

no

A: Phone calls to the past - The Long Game

Anna LearIt wasn't Earth tech. He used Rose's cellphone that was originally modified by the Doctor so that she could talk to her mother: The "Superphone" is an upgraded mobile phone that can make calls across time and space. It even calibrates to the user's home time period, as shown by Adam Mitchell'...

I actually have no recollection of the second episode
how weird is that
@pixel How do you not remember the Face of Boe?
OH
user15026
14:39
@OrigamiRobot This.
episode two is the one with the little spider robots?
yeah I thought that episode was pretty meh
user15026
BUT FACE OF BOE.
And it has a scene that reminded me of Galaxy Quest. "Whoever wrote this episode should DIE."
It's ok @Ashley, she doesn't know how awesome the Face of Boe is yet
user15026
@OrigamiRobot That's fair I suppose.
14:42
And what is the deal with the big bad wolf
why did it get painted on the tardis
user15026
@pixel Just watch. It will all make sense.
why did the psychic girl from the past see it in rose
@pixel Bad Wolf is Season 1's arc. It will all make sense in the end.
user15026
@pixel Because story is why.
somebody gave a really good reason why there was never a female doctor the other day
probably lastnight
yet according to wikipedia they were considering a female doctor for the tenth doctor
user15026
14:45
@pixel But ultimately they decided against it, which is the important bit
well yes, they were considering billie piper for the role
sounds like an important decision to decide against it
I feel like I am in to minority for not hating Rose. I also feel like I am in another minority for not loving Rose.
I hope she sets the low point for the doctors companions
and that it does, in fact, get better from here onwards
user15026
@OrigamiRobot I don't hate her. I like her for the bit of emotional punch. And I like her because it means we get her mom as a character, who I love.
@pixel I do like her the least, but that's because I love all the other companions.
Now, I do hate Mickey the Idiot.

I dislike Rose, for what it's worth

Q: How are concessions calculated?

svickWhen somebody attacks me and he surrenders, he pays me concessions (at least with some casus bellis, such as “de jure war”). For example, currently, I am king of Bohemia, and I am defending against the king of Hungary in “Hungarian-Bohemian De Jure War over Presspurg”. When I hover over “Enforce...

A: What is the Font Used in Pokemon Conquest?

Yago RibeiroAs I was looking for a font similiar to Pokémon's dialogue i found out that GulimChe looks a lot like it. You should have this font on your computer, otherwise you might find it online. :)

FTL: Faster Than Light is a new indie release that you can pick up over at the developer’s website, Steam or GoG for around $10, and it is worth every penny. I backed it’s Kickstarter, and thanks to Arqade’s own James I had a chance to play the beta extensively before release.

FTL’s a highly polished indie gem of a game. It manages to mix many different elements from many different RPG and strategy genres into a cohesive game that pushes you with its difficulty while still remaining fun. …

@StackExchange Actually, the best way to pick the game up is through the developers directly ftlgame.com @agent86
@StackExchange The blog is in UTF-8 (explicitly so, and that's the correct thing to do). The captcha thingy down below? ISO-8859-15 or something. At least when it decides to show you the text in German for no good reason (my browser sends "Accept-Language : en-gb,en;q=0.5", I just checked). facepalm
@YiJiang of course it is, and that's why I totally included that in the original post and am in no way editing anything in order to cover up the fact I changed it.
Probably recaptcha.net failing though, not the blog's fault as such.

@MartinSojka reCAPTCHA is AFAIK in English only
@MartinSojka yeah, don't even get me started on blog and authentication and so forth. it's a tangled mess and a long story. if you'd like, you can try to bring it up as a bug on meta (possibly meta.stackoverflow?) but I think they're in the middle of some big authentication changes and stuff's messed up in a lot of ways.
I thought rchern's set up the blog to use our SE credentials
But maybe not the comments yet?
@YiJiang funny story about that! doesn't work on sites that have their own domain. whoopsie!
infinite redirect loop :(
curse you arqade.com! CURSE YOU!
@MartinSojka So many tabs...
Hm... my PC can't actually handle Dungeon Defenders at max resolution, apparently.
Huh, very weird. Do you live in Germany?
@OrigamiRobot That's just my "entertainment" tab group, I have about 1.5 times as much in the others...
@Ullallulloo Awesome! Have a star.

Q: What strategy can I use to beat Isaac?

AubergineI'm trying to finally get myself over the Binding of Isaac, and I fear that won't happen until I've beaten the chest level with a few more characters. The problem is that I find it remarkably difficult to beat Isaac without sheer luck (that expresses itself as awesome items during the run). Whil...

Q: Increasing inventory in Torchlight 2

AerusI'm new to games like Torchlight 2 so I'm playing on casual difficulty to get used to it. Now i'm finding myself having to clear my inventory (load my pet up with all unwanted equipment and sent him to town to sell it) 2 to 3 times every time i enter a dungeon. So at the moment it feels like i'm ...

Q: Is jumping faster than sprinting?

KecoeyIs it faster to jump constantly while sprinting, or just sprint? It seems to me that Jumping is faster but I'm not sure.

@YiJiang Yes. Doesn't matter; I set up Accept-Language to show me English no matter if I'm right now at home (Germany), at a family visit in other places (mostly Poland and Slovakia) or traveling around the world again.

Unfortunately some sites ignore that
Those sites are wrong, then. :)
Anyway, time to finish up here, back later.
