Q: What's the solution to the Edison / Ford "139" code in Assassin's Creed 2?

Steve V.One of the passwords in Assassin's Creed 2 deals with Thomas Edison and J.P. Morgan trying to discredit Nikola Tesla in order to prevent alternating current from freeing the people, or something like that. I'm trying to unlock his secret code. The code is 139 and according to the hint button, t...

Ah, this was a good choice
Night Sky is very relaxing
Dammit! Found disk 4, but where the crap is my CD-Key?
@fbueckert Now if only you could find disc 1
oh I see, multiple headshots at the end of the movie
@pixel Yeah, he remembers nothing
not even her
04:06
BUT
how is xavier walking at the end of origins
but loses his ability to walk at a much earlier age
@pixel magic
<insert some poor excuse about stories not being written by the same people>
retcon ftw
I mean, how many times are we going to kill spider man's aunt and uncle before we let them rest, geez?
or batman's parents, for that matter
04:09
true story
it makes me dislike origins though
probably exploded krypton a bazillion times by now
THINK OF THE CHILDREN
IT RUINED IT
anyway that's all xmen movies watched
3 hours left until work time
what to do...
@agent86 AUNT MAY ONLY DIED ONE TIME AND HE MADE A DEAL WITH MEPHISTO TO HAVE THAT NOT HAPPEN IN EXCHANGE FOR HIM HAVING NEVER MARRIED MARY JANE OMG IT MAKES PERFECT SENSE
I wish I could marry Mary Jane
but we could be talking about different things
in fact, I pretty much guarantee it!
psh, Gwen Stacy amirite?

no

@OrigamiRobot Oh One More Day, you so silly.
04:20
Was xavier's paralysing ever covered in the comics in terms of when it happened?
@FAE What is "ab" in WvW?
@pixel Yes.

@InvaderSkoodge Sentence?
When did it happen according to marvel?

It's probably one of the keeps/towers

@InvaderSkoodge Ascension Bay
I keep reading that as arathi basin
I don't see "Ascension Bay" labeled on the map.

@pixel Uncanny X-Men #20. "In a strange town near the Himalayas, Xavier encounters an alien calling himself Lucifer, the advance scout for an invasion by his race, and foils his plans. In retaliation, Lucifer drops a huge stone block on Xavier, crippling his legs"

@InvaderSkoodge Which Borderlands are you in?
Colorwise
Green
I see "Dreadfall Bay"

@InvaderSkoodge That same place is Ascension in Blue. There's nothing in Green with AB as an abbreviation.
Wonderful. The identical locations have different names based on which map you're on.
FAE

@InvaderSkoodge Yes, like Greenbriar, Bluebriar, Redbriar.
04:25
That one at least makes sense :P
@Fluttershy oh right
I think I prefer the first class version of the story
I seem to recall reading somewhere that, in an alternate story-line, Apocalypse broke Xavier's back...
Screw it! Can't find the disk!

Q: How do I get Inspector Gizmo to leave Goal unattended?

Myrddin EmrysI cannot figure out how to trick Gizmo to leave the room so I can wake Goal up. I suspect I need to start a fire somewhere, or steal from my ex girlfriend. I cannot figure out how to accomplish either.

Not only that but the entire room was reset and everything I took was replaced. I've read that barrels and ...

@Lazers @marktrapp yup yup, without the tag people won't ask game-rec questions
WHY DO MY PUNCHES NOT DO ANY DAMAGE
HE'S LIKE RIGHT IN MY FUCKING FACE
@badp i retaged the question to should i not have done that?
@Josefvz It actually serves my argument so much better
(and yeah, you should've done that)
hahaha cool cool
@badp Is there some place where i can get a standard comment/message we post to questions like that or is my comment on there fine?
WHY DOES THE GUN NOT FIRE WHEN I CLICK THE BUTTON
out-of-ammo
09:18
@Josefvz I wish
@Josefvz is fine
HIT RELOAD OMG OMG RELOAD FFS... DEAD
@Josefvz Dude it was 34/401
lol... you got played son... PLAYED i tell ya.... you playing borderlands?
yeah
getting stuck on playthrough two Flint
mmmm Flint was easy for my on play 2 mode
But i was with a buddy...
09:23
I get insta-downed and Flynt just fills my screen and/or I can't find anybody to second wind off and/or Flynt's shields just go back up
@badp "A guest! Please, make yourself at home. My men will be with you shortly. Never let it be said that the great Baron Flynt is short on hospitality! "
What char are you playing?
gunzerker
You need something to take away the aggro from you. 'cause you are just getting focus-fired now... and that aint good
The gunzerker is supposed to be the tank :(
maybe try to up your fire resistance
@badp yea.. but who is dealing the damage while you are taking the shots?
09:28
MYSELF. WITH TWO GUNS. :(
Spent five minutes picking him off from a distance. Still dead
Also GEAR! Gear is insanely important in TVHM
he had like 70% health left
oh you're talking about borderlands 2
and again
@pixel nope... @badp is dying and i'm laughing... there aint no talking
09:33
@Josefvz that's what most communication on the bridge boils down to
two-hitted again
goddammit
@badp your gear HAS to be no more than 2 levels below your level!
Otherwise you will die
rofl
monday morning blues
the guy opposite me just facedesked irl
@Josefvz I've just started playthrough 2
hahahahahaha
@badp level?
09:34
Tell me when were I supposed to get a playthrough 2 level sniper rifle?
and went 'fuck mondays... I just deleted a group' [from active directory]
@Josefvz the others are level 32/34
@pixel that could cause some problems...
@Josefvz the rifle's level 28, but they just don't drop here
@Josefvz indeed it could
09:35
@badp no no what is YOUR lvl?
35
AND your Gear?
12
@badp mmmmm... problem right there...
Go grind gear or use the shops
I AM AT THE END OF THE FUCKING LEVEL, WHERE DO I GO GRINDING

Ice caves/ from the entrance go left instead of right to the ship

Q: What are the units in Age of Mythology saying?

General StubbsWhat are the units saying in age of mythology? For example, when I click on a hoplite he says "Prostagma". What does that mean? Is there are a place where I can get every unit's quotes (Greek, Egyptian and Norse) translated?

09:46
I certainly got no second winds while playing super mario world lastnight!
@pixel stfu, closing and reloading is starting over
:P
well, lastnight = this morning
and platform scrollers when you can barely keep your eyes open are fun fun fun!
@badp well GL
@pixel super mario bros 2 was the first game i ever played! Still has a special place in my heart
the first game I ever played was 9 lives on an atari st, because my step dad said until I demonstrated I wouldn't destroy an atari I wasn't allowed near his pc
but he was somewhat sexist and would have probably preferred me away from his electronics
"You don't get to play with electronics if you still have all your chromosomes intact!"
09:53
die
incidentally, I never owned a snes
my first games console was a dreamcast
and I was bought that "because the games were cheap" after it failed to get market traction
go my family
but I got at least 500 hours of gametime out of jet set radio
I have the 9 lives theme tune stuck in my head now
In other news, there was a "Youth's Word of the Year" chosen in Germany last week. For 2012, it's "YOLO".
facepalm
anybody who says that in real life deserves pain and suffering
to the same level as those who actually say "lol" as a word
or "rofl" as "roffle"
@pixel I will endeavour to increase the frequency with which #YOLO appears in my vocabulary just for you. (And yes, the hashtag is part of the spelling of the word, just like the apostrophe in "Isn't.")
@LessPop_MoreFizz I understand twatter tags
(And yes, that's A not I)
you realise distilling real life communication down to acronyms is bad for mankind right?
means all of the communication problems inherent with text based communication like IRC/IM will begin to spill out in to the real world
"lol" was supposed to convey an emotion, people saying "lol" in a deadpan voice removes all of the emotion
dude. It's 2012. "lol" was made in the eighties or something
10:05
"dude"
I know all about lol
@pixel w/e.
Human language has so far failed to reduce itself to acronym speaking textspeak blabbering shit
I'm not even going to say its a new thing, I'm not part of the group of people who think txtspk invented everything
10:06
@pixel Counterpoint: Emotionless deadpan 'lol' conveys it's own, entirely different emotion.
ok wait....
I am getting AC3 in 18$. Should I buy it or not?
Assassins Creed 3 PC
@LessPop_MoreFizz for some people sure
@RakeshJuyal That is an absurdly good price. Would you like to share it with the class?
Actually it is retail version. DVD
18$ for a retail release?
10:09
This game is yet to be launched in my country. So pre order is 18$.
In steam it is priced @ 49$ I guess.
@badp English comes pretty damn close though.
@MartinSojka Look at all those vowels
Yes @pixel 18$ for retail release.
and the lack of TLAs or numbers
@badp Look at how many ways you can spell each one of them too!
10:10
@badp Some people though
@badp We could switch to Hebrew. Look ma, no vowels!
@MartinSojka Wait what?
it may be something specifically with English people
@pixel Some people are fucktards. How has that changed since the introduction of "lol"?
10:10
@RakeshJuyal that's a really good price
@RakeshJuyal Bargain! Go for it!
@badp they multiplied rapidly
not specifically because of the introduction of "lol"
@badp They're a lot easier to spot, and have access to a variety of technologies that allow them to broadcast their presence to the rest of us.
@pixel If noting else human multiplication in the western world is screeching to a halt compared to a hundred years ago
@pixel Thanks, I am going to buy it.
10:12
@badp there is certainly an alarming number of freeloading fucktards with an inability to speak properly in the UK
including me, but I'll use lack of coffee as a reason
morning :)

@Kappei 'Ave
oh what
I hat to go and google YOLO to find out what it means
10:14
digital deluxe edition of GW2 is now the same price as the normal version
I guess I don't need to re-ask my question of 'is the dd edition worth the extra?'
@pixel And here i was deciding wheter to buy GW1 or GW2.. just made up my mind
@Josefvz I am going to get it on Wednesday
I am MIA in WoW, account is cancelled, I've deleted my authenticator VM without backing it up so I can't get into my account to change my mind
not even told my guild yet
Okay, I am going to go and try to sleep for the second fourth of the day, in hopes that I can stay awake for the second half of it. Bye chat.
I am MIA on Skype as well, to prevent them from enticing me back
@LessPop_MoreFizz hf
sleep well, etc
@pixel I hate people who do that.
10:17
@pixel They'll figure it out eventually....
But it's nicer to let them know beforehand
@MartinSojka meh, they have probably already worked it out already, I was a trial anyway and not really needed
I've raided like 3 times since joining (I went on a business trip the week after joining)
I am not leaving an empty spot
and they were douchebags
If I liked them at all, I'd have told them
@MartinSojka I used to think like that too... Then my guild disbanded overnight to transfer to GW2
See, I care about my people, so that's a little different. If any one of them stops showing up, I'd like to know if I should be concerned, and if there is anything I can do to help them.
@MartinSojka oh sure, and if I was in a guild like that, I wouldn't randomly disappear
but this guild is not full of nice people, its full of bad players who make up for it by raiding 5 days a week and thinking they're the shit
in other news Urban Dictionary YOLO Definition "7. YOLO: You Obviously Lack Originality"
10:20
literally the first thing they ever said to me is "oh, you're a girl... I didn't realise we were carrying people..."
like the two are linked...
@MartinSojka I'd join a guild like that
Don't mistake my caring for my people for me being nice. I'm the leader - they have my loyalty until the end, no matter how hard times are, but everyone else can go to hell and I'll help along if that's what needed to help my people.
@pixel it's the same old "girl=bad gamer"
@pixel I play dota 2 ... got owned by a girl last night.. asked her to join my clan ;)
@MartinSojka MMOs are 100% about the people you play with
@Josefvz I know these things, I ranked on all 3 nights, beating all of their other healers in less gear, and then left on my business trip without saying goodbye
@MartinSojka incidentally, "don't mistake my caring for being nice" can't be followed by statements about how you're willing to help and you being loyal to people who are loyal in return
that's like saying "don't mistake me as a nice person"...."I'm a nice person"
10:24
@pixel Order of importance of people in an MMO: 1. My clan, 2. my friends, 3. me, 4. ... there is no number 4; everyone else better not stand in my way.
@MartinSojka for me 1+2 are the same thing
if I can't make friends with the people I play with, I don't play with them
I play a lot better when I have the feeling of letting down somebody I care about
if everybody is interchangeable then the driving force isn't there for me
that's the main reason I get so involved with MMOs
@pixel this!
get stuck in the loop of "I can't leave, all of my friends play this game..."
@pixel then this
it's what happened with Diablo 3 (I know its not an MMO), all my friends played it so I remained interested in the fact its a poor game in comparison to D2
second they quit, couldn't be bothered to play it
if they hadn't quit, I'd have kept playing it
10:27
I try very hard to manage my time between online friends, and IRL family/friends... and sometimes i fail horribly @ both
The Secret World didn't work for me because everybody I was interested in playing with was in a completely different timezone
so the interest worked while I was off work, because I could play in those timezones
(and if you remember, I went an entire week without sleep)
but the second I was back at work, there was no reason to log in
I played a game called Neocron for years and years, because none of my friends would quit
@pixel That's the totally wrong way to think about it. Of course you can leave any time. If they are friends, the friendship will remain. I always tell the people who leave the game that this isn't the end; that anytime they want to contact us, they can; that anytime they want to come back, there'll be a place waiting for them, no matter how long it takes, but also that there is no pressure to coming back. They have their lives to live.
but then I got dragged into the gamemaster team, and one of the requirements for that was to not play a normal character and to not communicate your GM identity with players
which completely destroyed the game for me
@MartinSojka and how many of them stay in touch?
@pixel About one third.
@MartinSojka I actually stayed in touch with 100% of the people I played neocron with
but with WoW, it's probably 1 in 20
10:35
Blizzard has made almost all the wrong choices when creating the social structure in WoW. There is very little to fight for (or against) as a guild. The guild skills (or whatever they are called) were a nice idea ("inspired" by other MMOs, obviously), but seem to be either too easy to get or too unimportant.
Hello there :)
Anyone playing Hawken over here ?
Hawken (stylized HAĐ©ĘžEN) is an upcoming independent multiplayer mech combat game under development by Adhesive Games. The game focuses on creating an intense battle experience that captures the feel of piloting a mech while keeping the action fast-paced and strategic. It has been confirmed that the game will feature two unique game modes, as well as conventional team deathmatch and free-for-all modes. The game will be released on December 12 as a free-to-play title. The developers have recently launched a sign-up page for an upcoming Beta of the game. In an interview with G4, Khang Le,...

10:54
@MartinSojka Yep (there's another one ? :o)
Just to make sure, since this one isn't actually released yet ...
As much as I love big mechs shooting the crap out of each other and the surrounding landscape, I think I'll try the new BattleTech game soon-ish. :)
This should be keeping me occupied for quite a while if it's any good. :D
Never heard of it :o
But I've been playing Hawken beta for the past few days; I have a bunch of questions about it, but i suppose Arqade won't take any questions regarding a game in beta...
MechWarrior Online (also known as MWO) is an upcoming free to play, action simulation game under development by Piranha Games for the Microsoft Windows platform. Development of the game is being led by Russ Bullock, president of Piranha Games, and is part of a licensing agreement with Smith & Tinker for the rights to create MechWarrior for the Microsoft Windows platform. Plot MechWarrior Online is a real-time game where one day in the real world is equal to one day in the game. January 1, 2012 is equal to January 1, 3049. Players take the role of piloting BattleMechs, and can align thems...
And also I'm not sure it would be "DNA-compliant"

Q: How to get the center point of the Sprite in Cocos2d 2?

user1782630Im new to cocos2d development i would like to make an iPhone game like Archery game in Android. But i dont know how to get the center point of the target. Answer me about getting center point of target and how to release the blow from back end to taget.

11:02
@Anto the answer to this question literally changes every time somebody tests the rule
I've seen people say "must be released", "must be in public beta", "must be publicly available"
but if you have agreed to non-disclosure then it wouldn't be appropriate to break that
@Anto I think "beta (and alpha) only if they are public and unlimited, like for Dwarf Fortress, Minecraft or Prison Architect" would be the one choice most people can live with.
Still, we aren't a hive mind yet, so you'll always get dissenting voices.
@pixel Ok ok, thanks (both of you) for these answers ;)
I'll wait until the release (12/12/12) !
I personally would say 'must be publicly available' - you can't answer questions on a game that you can't play :p
@MartinSojka eh, yet... is Arqade going full Borg anytime soon?
@Kappei the assimilation already started
you just don't know it yet

damn, I wanted to get ready in time

What content is the same, what is different, and how does Pets inte...

@MartinSojka for you perhaps!

@pixel grated cheese... in a sandwich?
You're doing it wrong.
user30
@badp hmm? What's up with 8 week terms?
@ThomasMcDonald It's just, fuck that shit.
4 month terms are much more relaxing, in-depth, etc.
2 exams every second month feel much more than 4 exams every fourth month
(I tried both formulas. I get to draw comparisons :P)
Half-long terms means you spend half as many hours in class per course. This means there's a lot left to self study and/or classes feel more rushed.
The pro, less courses in parallel, is... meh in comparison.
@badp I didn't make the sandwich, I bought it
it was 3 different cheese and onion
and i picked out all of the onion
I thought there was more than one choice of sandwich in London
I am not in London
that was last week
