So XCOM kicked my butt last night. Four missions - three squad wipes, including the memorable site of two soldiers panicking at another soldier dying and shooting each other. It's been far too long since I struggled to win a strategy game.
I have been trying to setup a private server without Hamachi for a while now because my friend, for various reasons, cannot connect. Because I am on MacOS my VPN options are very limited without Hamachi and as such I have not been able to set it up. I have tried port forwarding but all my ports n...
and for me is an off-topic. but, I couldn't find a Stack Exchange site to direct the user. I first though that server fault was the right place, but don't look like it (on their faq)
@BenBrocka I've started two Terror from the Deep games and I've never made it past the first mission. I find the graphical change from the original XCOM too jarring (which is likely because I'm used to the graphics in the original).
(the original series is all on Steam for Win 7 btw)
@JasonBerkan It's largely similar in terms of gameplay with a few new nicities interface wise and some new features, but the biggest change is the difficulty is even harder. Wait till you see a Terror mission
But if you want a challenging game of XCOM, there you go
@BenBrocka Terror missions in XCOM were too easy, since you could completely ignore them - fly your troops there, immediately leave and take a minimal hit to your monthly score (a hit that you could easily recoup through one successful UFO encounter).
@BenBrocka Though I don't really like the scoring on the new terror missions either. The best strategic play is to let the aliens kill all the civilians, since if you kill all the aliens and keep all your soldiers alive, you get almost the best possible outcome.
In the Siege Mode, I saw players destroying our battleship while we had control of the anti-aircraft.
Are there other hidden weapons that can help to destroy the battleship ? Or is just possible to destroy it with the mech's weapons (and in that case, how) ?
I got Audiosurf on Steam about a month ago, which I was able to run perfectly. Then, I had to re-install Windows, and since then I could not start up the game at all.
Well, technically, it does start, but after a couple of seconds, it instantly crashes.
I contacted the developer, but he couldn'...
@Fluttershy I haven't played it after asking that question. I'll be sure to comment again when I do. The current answer seems to be what I'm looking for, although I haven't been able to try it.
@kalina What do you think of the title "Where can I get a copy of the different demo versions?" Also, what about the content? It seems to be what OP is looking for.
@kalina The title has been edited to be shorter. I'm kinda biased for reopening the question, since I'm a Re-Volt fan =) I don't think it's shopping advice, as OP has made it clear what he's looking for (he listed the demo versions and details about them).
GTG. If anyone wants to review this question and/or have it reopened, this is the link: http://gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/101621/where-can-i-get-a-copy-of-the-different-demo-versions-each-different-demo-vers
Well, I guess that my be the problem, I dont konw. I just got a pirated copy that did work also before the reinstall, so I will test if that works when copying.
@AshleyNunn I'm only about ten pages in, but I love the way it's written. Something strangely elegant about it. Which is odd for me to say about a book. >_>
> [Artificial Intelligence] is a science because, in the moment in which you emulate some intelligent behaviours with given artificial systems (where, as we said, by intelligent we intend to convey the meaning referring to human-specific behaviours), man achieves the target of creating objective and rigorous models and experimental confirmations; this allows us to irrefutably obtain an advance in our study, through scientific methods, of the human intelligence.
@SaintWacko Why do people feel the need to embellish their thought with such discombobulating thought process? The language isn't getting any clearer and the nesting is only getting worse.
> From this [???] point of view the historical framing of a discipline, which in the AI case appears particularly rich but problematic too, represents the starting point for a broader analysis, in which we can consider also matters about the ontological determination of its particular statute.
What the hell does this mean?
My best guess is "This ties with the way AI as a discipline came to be." Or, in other words, content-free filler.
I have been trying to play the Pokemon Trading Card Game Online for over a month now.
Every time that I try to login to the site, I get this error:

What happens if my city has 3 religions, does it benefit from all of the follower beliefs, or does it just work for the current most dominant religion?
(I'm not seriously asking you to translate to common English my rather exceedingly literal translation of this terrible piece of Italian. That'd be cruel.)
(I'm just happy studying Engineering means this stuff <fi>has a 2% probability</fi> of affecting my final grade for the exam or of being of any use in my general understanding of AI.)
Any question that only asks for links (ie. Where can I find a guide for X?/Is there a guide on how to mine for fish?) is fundamentally a bad question. They can be modified to answer the underlying question (I'm having trouble with X. What can I do./How do I mine for fish?). But any question where you can't answer the underlying problem other than provide links is a bad question.
A new player spawned on the server for the first time, was spawned inside a tree within the protected area around the spawn. We don't have an admin around, but he is obviously stuck since he can't destroy any block around him and has no way out without destroying something. What can he do?
After clearing the base game, I've moved on to the Undead Nightmare DLC.
I've noticed that money seems to be all but gone from the game as a commodity. Nobody seems interested in trading now that zombies ate their neighbors. Further, the challenges are completely different than in the base gam...
I rooted but I never bothered putting on a custom rom, too much bother and none of them were built specifically for my phone, so I got very mixed messages about what worked (it was a US Cellular galaxy S so no one made anything specifically for it)
I just recently received a new laptop a couple of days ago and I've noticed that, whenever I'm gaming, the laptop spontaneously forgets that it's plugged in. That is, even though just a minute ago it was plugged in and charging, whenever I start to game, the laptop reports that it's on battery p...
I highly recommend prepaid in general though. It's worth it just to say FU to contracts, plus there's no hidden fees or anything, it's all nice and simple, and often cheaper
@BenBrocka I was with Rogers. I had a super cheap phone, not even a smart phone. At the end of the three year contract, I insisted on them unlocking it if they wanted to keep my business. They refused.
You pay more money long term by getting a subsidized contract phone, I see very little reason to get anything but unlocked phones if you're really evaluating your options properly and understand what any of it all means (I'm sure most consumers don't)
Is there a way to find where other players are in the Minecraft world without asking them for their coordinates? I play with friends. We've sort of aligned ourselves in a 2 vs 2 match-up, and since we wanna PvP with them, we need to find them first.
@fbueckert yeah, they keep shit confusing because people are used to just doing whatever the phone company says so they get service
I've had to tell my parents like 5 times that they can still use a "deactivated" android phone as everything but a phone. They keep thinking they'll "die". Even after I gave my dad my old one which he uses as an MP3 player
@fbueckert I think that's a big part of why they fight so hard to prevent competition. Someone really could sweep in and make this a lot simpler for the consumer (hell prepaid plans already do, but there's a stigma there). But you need a new entrant to do that. That's almost impossible in the US
@fbueckert No wifi? No Android OS? I doubt that unless it's been seriously carrier molested
I want to maximize Stinky's ability to collect coins while I'm not using Plants Vs. Zombies, and that means giving him regular feedings of chocolate. How can I maximize my chocolate harvest while actually playing the game?
I'm using the iOS / iPad version - in case it matters.
Oh, right, software works differently in the new version. There are a lot less software titles, and you can equip a bunch at once. Also, there is a new item slot for using the scanner and other item types.
Is it possible to wait for an enemy ship to run out off missiles and/or drones so that I can focus killing their crew with less pressure?
