Heh.
And that offline part, where you lose connection to EA's servers? If your computer is fast enough, it makes the game run faster.
So, really, the always online is literally just a piracy check. No matter what EA says.
Which makes sense; in order to allow you to play at all when the servers hit massive lag, your computer has to do all the crunching. The only online bits are the city resource trading and the central great project.
sigh
kill Jessica no problem
kill Blorc no problem, level up
kill an ogre no problem and level up again
turn a corner, stumble on a fucking orc priest
1 HP
I made it safely upstairs but goddammit ain't smiting cheap
Smiting is damned annoying
@badp I hate those little green os.
One of the scariest early monsters ('cept for the named ones).
@JasonBerkan Ooh, another crawler?
@fbueckert Always online for formerly single player games was always about DRM and microtransactions/RMAH. Everything else are excuses.
22:16
@SaintWacko Former. I gave up after the game crushed my soul.
@JasonBerkan Saint Roka combines both :D
@JasonBerkan Awww
@MadScientist Yeah, but a game (D3) can be engineered to actually do stuff on the server side.
I won my first game last night
I got a +1, +0 rElec freeze +Inv dagger for my trouble though
If the only thing being done online is saving your city, then screw it.
That's like tacked on multiplayer.
22:17
@badp Ooh, nice
except invisibility only has a 71% failure ratio
@fbueckert That is an artificial separation, you could just ship the server and enable offline play (if you plan it from the start).
looks like failing to activate invisibility only gives you a time penalty though
@MadScientist Except they wouldn't do that, because piracy.
22:18
yessssssss
Screwing over your legitimate customers is more important than letting them play the way they want.
@JasonBerkan Sounds like you don't have the temperament for Crawl lol
How many games did you play before quitting?
@SaintWacko to be perfectly honest "+0, +1" is kinda crappy
also hi Ribbit
@SaintWacko 115 on the blog. I played it a bunch before I kept tracking my games.
@badp Yeah, but the rElec is useful
and invis will help in the early game
Oh, wait, I was thinking Stlth+
Yeah, That's not as good
22:21
eh. I'm a SpEn
Stealth leads my skill list at 4,3
I've got a TeAE going right now
Terrible Area of Effect?
Tengu :P
how are Tengus?
They have some pretty sweet apts
22:22
I might be rolling a TrBe if this run ends disappointing
just faceroll into all the things
And if you can reach xl15 with one you get permaflight, plus some ev and movement delay bonuses while flying
That MiGl I had was a pretty easy way of doing it
flight is nice
 You catch the helpless Prince Ribbit completely off-guard!
 You slash Prince Ribbit! You freeze Prince Ribbit.
_Prince Ribbit is severely wounded.
 You catch the helpless Prince Ribbit completely off-guard!
 You impale Prince Ribbit!! You freeze Prince Ribbit.
 You kill Prince Ribbit!
 Your Fighting skill increases to level 2!
 Your Traps & Doors skill increases to level 3!
 Your Spellcasting skill increases to level 4!
 Your Ice Magic skill increases to level 2!
 You have reached level 7!
weeeee
invisibility is good
I even have it in my starting spellbook but the spell version has a 100% failure rate. :/
still does.

Q: How does public transportation work in SimCIty?

SvishI'm wondering if someone could shed some light and advice on how to manage public transport and traffic in general in SimCity. I always end up with traffic chaos even though I try to have bus stops coverage everywhere and street cars on main streets. This results in a lot of unnecessary problems ...

It was extra risky because of the nearby moth of rage, but oh well.
All it did was send me berserker mice
@badp Hehe, nice
22:31
The mummy resists. The mummy hits you!
_* * * LOW HITPOINT WARNING * * *
 Drink which item? (? for menu, Esc to quit)
 You feel better. It was a potion of curing. The mummy hits you!
 Ouch! That really hurt!
 You die...
 --more--
TrBe time
@badp Oof, did you get tormented?
nope
I hate torment
By the end, it's the hardest hitting attack in the game
since it does 50% of your current HP
_You can no longer regenerate and be protected from hostile enchantments.
oh come on Trog
exploring takes time
@OrigamiRobot My lag machines are very compact thank you very much
22:39
@badp But Trog wants you to KILL ALL THE THINGS!
I do that even as a SpEn
And sacrifice all the corpses to him!
user43095
@fredley What lag machines? and is the server down?
I agree with @fbueckert. You should all buy a WiiU and Monster Hunter 3U and play with us.
And there went my TeAE
22:46
@badp On the boss of World 3. Perfect+es all the way. =3

Q: How well could my laptop play Sim City (2013)?

SolignisI am thinking about getting a copy of the new sim city but I am not sure if my laptop's gpu will be able to make the game run smooth. My laptop: Lenovo Thinkpad W530 3rd gen Core i7 Ivy Bridge Processor 16 GB of DDR3 RAM 1TB Primary HDD 500GB Secondary HDD nVidia Quadro K1000M / Intel HD4000 ...

Do we allow those?
@Fluttershy No.
This is clearly too localized. Come now @Fluttershy. Don't be a silly pony.
@JasonBerkan Trolls need feeding
...I died to a giant frog
@Wipqozn I'm a tree. Trees don't know much.
@Fluttershy SILLY TREE-PONY
@Fluttershy counterexample: Oak

@SaintWacko Only some.
Just the ones at that page.
@user28015 Handling flags and cleaning up derails in comments isn't censorship, sorry
@Wipqozn Yeah, that's not very all :P
@SaintWacko I'M SORRY OKAY
23:03
@Wipqozn IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT
YOU GOT MY HOPES UP
@SaintWacko I SAID I'M SORRY
IT'S @MANA OKAY
HE PUT ME UP TO IT
HE THREATENED TO BAN ME IF I DIDN'T DO IT

MOD ABUSE
@Mana Did I miss something?
Oh. Yes I did. <_<
@badp That was random. o_o Didn't we sort that like 6 months ago?
@Fluttershy did we? I forget.
23:06
Wait, what?
What did I miss?
@Fluttershy Oh look. Yes we did.
Is user28015 doing something rage inducing again?
@fbueckert If he is, I haven't seen it.
Calm down your horses, people. I'm just replying to a comment of his on the site
Put the torches down and return the pitchforks to @Mana

Q: How does shielding work?

AntoSometimes, a shield pops around my main star. I'm sure it has something to do with life planets around it that generate their own shield, but how does it work exactly ? What are the requirements to obtain an energy shield around a star ? Also, will it work the same for all the stars (small, la...

Q: How to defocus a program without letting it know it is out of WinAPI focus

ErquintThere is a need for two of us with my friend to use one PC at the same time. I have a gaming PC, 2 screens, a gamepad — sounds like a great multi-user environment, eh? Not so fast. The problem is: most of the games, even if windowed, require to be focused in order to keep running. Few games hav...

Q: Minecraft forestry multiple arboretum multifarms cannot work at the same time

mopsydI have two of the largest size multifarms set up as arboretums to generate saplings for biofuel production. They are both set up correctly and have all resources piped in through thermal expansion tesseracts when they are low. Both of these work fine, but the problem is that when I have them both...

Wall of text o.0
They really are wobbly. They're only slightly firmer than jelly (and I refuse to say jello. It's a stupid word.)
@YiJiang'sEvilClone @OrigamiRobot should make his script correct all those things
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand...
@SaintWacko Correct what?
