What are the factors that control when and how the border posts move? I've read a couple of theories, and made some observations, but it's still pretty unclear to me. I saw a number of ideas floating around on the internet, and did some pseudo-exact experiments of my own; I'll put some of those ...

I've cleared all the sidequests in Blood Dragon before taking on the last missions. Walking around a bit in the post-game, I don't see anything to do. Are there any post-game missions?

Because of the fact that the laser sight seems to remove the reticle without actually providing a dot, only a beam, my experience with it was limited to shooting rats in Venice. Does the laser sight have any effect other than replacing the reticle with an (arguably inferior) laser beam, like redu...

I have heard about Second Life, but I have no idea where to download it from, nor how to download it. What should I do?

Say I have $30,000. One delivery of metal costs $21,000; one delivery of alloy costs $42,000. I am importing metal and alloy to create and export processors for about $100,000. (Exact numbers not important, but relative values are.) As it turned out, a metal truck came in first before I sold a b...

I'm a little puzzled by how filters work - in Metro 2033, you had a number of filters, and when the old one ran out you had to replace it. In Metro Last Light, you have a total filter capacity expressed in minutes, and it gets incremented by some number when you pick up a filter. Are my filters m...

I placed a couple Fruit Aspects onto some Strawberries for extra Food. Now that I don't need it anymore, I want to place some other Aspects to I can upgrade it. Is there a way to remove already placed Aspects?

This is relevant for building asparagus staging rockets. Basically each asparagus-stage should be ejected separately, so they should be on a separate stage, but for consistency and quick building they should not be constructed individually (I have found the need for many separatrons on my large a...

This machine is madness.Takes approximately 1/100 of its SHIELD and a tiny bit more damage on the shield when i shoot the red eye with my shock sniper rifle.All these crazy flying surveyors and this one badass loader already chunking my health like crazy when i have a 600 health shield.

I am planning to buy gaming keyboards with back-lit illumination , specifically this one : http://www.saitek.com/manuals/K140_slimline_Keyboard.pdf but i'm confused if whether the black-lit illumination , or the multimedia shortcut keys work with Ubuntu (13.04, specifically) . So , the questio...

So I've got a few PS1 memory cards, and game that I want to play on my PS2 slim, but despite several years of searching I have yet to find a memory card that my PS2 will manage(mostly I just need to clear out the crap the previous owners left on it). Is there some trick, or rule that I'm not awa...

On occasion, I see bear cubs and fawn. Do they have a purpose other than adding additional realism to the game? Can they be hunted? Are they worth more or less?

On trying to fire up any game in Steam, or Activate a Product on Steam, a popup will display stating "Scanning for Steam games updates.", and just sit there. It never does anything, and only offers a Cancel button (which sometimes is even disabled), which doesn't allow me to start the game from S...

I visited http://gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/tagged/team-fortress-2 and couldn't find the Unanswered tab: This appears to be a problem where the tabs are long enough that they get pushed onto an invisible next line, which I can actually drag-select to cause to scroll: The tabs also r...

Steam introduced a trading card system (making steam so meta) You can buy the cards in the market, trade them, or they can drop when playing certain games. The problem is that you have a limited number of drops When I run out of drops (and I don't have 2 of a kind to trade for them) is my onl...

Playing in Nightmare I just picked up Wirt's Leg for the first time. I must have somehow missed it in Normal, so now I'm wondering: will I miss out on anything if I simply bring it back to Normal and use it there instead of playing all the way to Baal and then using it in Nightmare? (So I just f...

Velocity Ultra's Progress screen shows 10 Explorer # badges, each stating "Discover secret area #". Where are these 10 secret areas and how do I unlock them?

I live in a field, literally miles away from anywhere. There are some quantities of XM nearby and I have completely filled up my XM bar, but I have walked all around my village and there are no portals anywhere near here. Does this mean that I am unable to play Ingress, since I'm not going to b...

I chose to play as Enlightened, but it appears that nearly all of the portals in a nearby city are already controlled by Enlightened. In order to get experience I need to hack enemy portals, not friendly ones. Due to this, I was wondering if it is possible to switch sides in Ingress, from Enlig...

I have just started playing World of Warcraft again after a prolonged break (since very early in Pandaria) and there have been several major patches since I quit, including multiple new raid instances. With this in mind, are there any new valor point vendors and if so, where can I find them? Do ...

I've heard that Loki is the best SC when it comes to PvP, while Tengu excels at PvE, and I haven't heard that much of Legion and Proteus. Besides the obvious racial traits such as "Amarr have armor tanks and lasers, Gallente have drones etc.", what are the main differences between the four, and ...

I have a Genuine Ham Shank from pre-ordering Don't Starve on Steam: I'd like to know what would happen if: I applied paint to my Ham Shank and/or I used a Name Tag to change the item's name Will it keep the green text indicating it is an item of genuine quailty if I apply one or both of the...

I can't beat this one:( You lose nearly all your health before have a chance to get use an invulnerability. Do I just have to build up my health a ton?

On the Steam badges, at the bottom it says "For having at least one product registered" but there's no "View Details" or anything to click on. It's greyed out, which sounds like I don't have this badge. What is this badge and how can I make sure I have it? Most badges aren't retroactive I've fou...

Since even with Monster Power 1 all monsters are level 63, is there any difference in loot from different monsters? I'm now talking only about normal, white, monsters(so not elite or unique). For example: a small spiderling that dies with a single blow and some huge golem that takes me 5 seconds...

I'm at the part in the story line where I'm playing with someone so I don't want to level my character past them, but I'd like to kill some time and gamble for some better weapons. How can I do this when I can't get to Sanctuary?

I've played Xcom: Enemy unknown for 21 hours (according to steam) and suddenly, at October 1st (internal game date) I see a "defeat" movie of alien taking mind control of the council president. Why did this happen? Does this game has a time time limit and I lost because I did not progress with m...

I want to play OMG!Words (Check the last game in the article) but I can't get it to run because it needs LOVE 0.7 and the ppa I added has the latest stable version, LOVE 0.8.0. My version of Ubuntu is Precise Pangolin (12.04 64-bit). When I checked the launchpad for LOVE (Launchpad for LOVE), 0.7...
