7:00 PM
... WHAT?
80 MULTIMETERS IS A WEIRD AMOUNT TO TRY TO SCAM
 
@OrigamiRobot Yeah. Which is why I got a call about it.
 
@StrixVaria psst
 
@badp NO STARS DOESN'T EXIST
My post doesn't exist either.

@murgatroid99 wipqozn113 is my WiiU gamerid
 
7:04 PM
Oh I read about that 4 days ago
 
@StrixVaria CHECKMATE ATHEISTS
 
I approve of the rules
 
Paradox @StrixVaria strikes again!
 
I can't follow the link from the office here. What's the major changes to early access?
If it prevents another 'Towns' from ever happening, I'll love it.
 
@MadMAxJr try this writeup, it's almost entirely marketing stuff
 
7:06 PM
Aha! an Ars link. That works, thanks
 
@Wipqozn can I add you without access to my Wii U?
 
@MadMAxJr Don't launch in early access if you can't afford to finish the game even without sales. Don't use early access if development is finished. Market your shit as early access on non-steam sites so people don't feel like you pulled the rug out from under them. The game must be playable.
 
I liked how Prison Architect had Early Access page videos featuring their unusual and game breaking bugs.
'Prisoner heads sometimes become random art assets!'
'Prisoners in the cafeteria will continue having lunch. Even if it is on fire.'
 
PRISON ARCHITECT IS A GREAT EARLY ACCESS GAME
 
Yeah Prison Architect is an example of one done well I think. Although it's been in early access for a long-ass time now.
 
7:09 PM
Yes. One of the best.
 
I just recall the /fury/ when the Towns guy said "Okay, I'm not working on this anymore. Maybe at some point in the future I will make a Towns 2!"
 
THERE ARE TWO TYPES OF GAMES I WILL BUY IN EARLY ACCESS
1. WOW THIS COULD BE A FULL GAME IN ITS CURRENT STATE
2. PLEASE TAKE MY MONEY IF IT WILL HELP MAKE THIS IDEA A REALITY
PRISON ARCHITECT IS IN THE FIRST CATEGORY
 
Could be, but they've still got ideas on how to implement a reform system for prisoners
 
@Unionhawk RIGHT, THE FACT THAT THEY ARE STILL ADDING TO IT IS GRAVY
 
Which is kind of exciting
 
7:12 PM
So right now it's SuperJail where prisoners enter and never leave?
 
They leave, but previously, and currently iirc, the best prison is a strict prison.
They want to add education stuff to do things
 
MAXIMUM SECURITY PIZZA
 
Get arrested with flavor.
 
each pizza is artisanally scanned through a metal detector
 
(Some pizzas may be selected for additional screening)
 
7:16 PM
THEY CAN BE RELEASED OR THEY CAN ESCAPE
 
Today, in the "badp has lost his mind a long time ago" department
 
I'm going to pretend Origami Robot is the output terminal from Wargames.
 
Everytime I play Prison Architect, all of my prisoners leave (via escaping).
 
THIS IS ACCEPTABLE TO ME
 
@MadMAxJr The only winning move is not to play
 
7:17 PM
@JasonBerkan BUILD A SECURITY WALL AND/OR GET DOGS
 
DO YOU WANT TO PLAY A GAME? NO NOT CHESS WHAT IS THIS THE 80s? DEFCON.
 
@OrigamiRobot The only early access game I own is Kerbal Space Program. And that was worth it based on the stuff that was available when I bought it alone
I can see early access working for sandbox games, but not really for anything else
 
I'm amused that during many Q&A sessions with space agency professionals, there's been several who commented on playing KSP.
 
@MadScientist i've seen really bad early access games. that didn't have anything
 
"I'm not a physicist, but I have clocked 4000 hours on KSP...."
 
7:19 PM
seven days to die for example.
 
Bad early access games? RUST.
 
@Rapitor 7 DAYS TO DIE IS A GREAT EARLY ACCESS GAME
 
@OrigamiRobot only because it was updated, when it first went public is was poop
 
I mean when everyone and also their mom is making a survival early access game with zombies...
 
THAT DOESN'T MAKE IT A BAD EARLY ACCESS GAME, IMO
 
7:20 PM
And crafting
 
Just gotta jump the gun and get to market with your game where you're a stealth zombie trying to fit in with the living.
 
it started bad
 
Your FACE
 
THE GAME MIGHT HAVE BEEN BAD WHEN IT STARTED, BUT THAT DOESN'T MAKE IT A BAD EARLY ACCESS GAME
 
all these zombie survival games... and there still isn't a game where you play as the zombie
Stubbs the zombie is the only game I can think of
 
7:22 PM
UPDATES AND COMMUNICATION ARE WHAT MAKES A GOOD EARLY ACCESS GAME AND 7DTD HAS THAT COVERED WELL
 
I still can't believe Stubbs was built on the /Halo/ engine.
 
SO DOES PRISON ARCHITECT
 
@MadMAxJr why?
 
Prison architect is amazing on the communication thing
 
SUPER AMAZING
 
7:23 PM
@Rapitor To me it seemed like a huge 'fish out of water' jump for such a thing
But it made for an amazing game.
 
@MadMAxJr Stubbs?
Stubbs (born April 12, 1997) is a cat who has been the honorary mayor of Talkeetna, Alaska, since July 1997. As of 2014, Stubbs is still mayor, and has been described as a tourist attraction, having been flooded with cards and letters, and drawing 30 to 40 tourists each day (most of whom are en route to other Alaska destinations, such as Mount McKinley) who hope to meet "the mayor". Stubbs's position is honorary, as the town is only a "historical district". Every afternoon, Stubbs goes to a nearby restaurant and drinks water out of a wineglass laden with catnip. == Early Life and Election == In...
 
@Batophobia Yes.
 
not that Stubbs
 
... Not that one.
Stubbs the Zombie
 
Stubbs the Zombie, for Xbox huge
 
7:23 PM
PC release wasn't terrible.
 
STUBBS WAS AWESOME
the zombie
 
REALLY, I FEEL LIKE 90% OF PEOPLE'S PROBLEMS WITH EARLY ACCESS WOULD BE SOLVED IF THEY JUST CALLED IT "DEV BUILD" INSTEAD
3
 
my point was there isn't enough games where you play as the zombies
 
I should've posted this last night...
 
7:24 PM
A game with jetpacked equipped elite barbershop quartet guards who sing a harmony about how they're going to stop you
 
I'm sure the cat is awesome too
 
@MadMAxJr also farts
 
"EARLY ACCESS" IS JUST SENDING THE WRONG MESSAGE OUT OF THE GATE BECAUSE IT HAS THE IMPLICATION OF "PRE-RELEASE"
 
aaand I'm off to play Smash!
 
@Chippies TELL MRS BEANS I SAID GOOD LUCK!
 
7:25 PM
@Unionhawk Mayor for 7 years
 
@OrigamiRobot OKAY, I WILL!
 
"Early Access" just sounds like getting the full product, but earlier than others
 
@3ventic EXACTLY
 
It's a pre-pre-order
 
No its not
 
7:28 PM
@murgatroid99 I don't think so. What's yours? I'm home, so I can add you.
 
Soon we'll hit the point where EA doesn't just do DLC season passes, but franchise passes. "Assassins Creed Eternal Membership"
 
@Chippies Excellent. I approve.
 
Well. Not just EA. But any of the big ones.
 
@Wipqozn I'm nearly positive it's murgatroid99
 
I'm on a lot of caffeine and reviewing code. Unoptimistic and angry at random things.
 
7:29 PM
@murgatroid99 I figured it would be.
 
@Wipqozn I use that everywhere I can. I managed to lose the username on YouTube, and I misspelled it on the Pokemon site
 
@Rapitor Ray's the Dead got kickstarted.
@MadMAxJr ...monthly fee?
or yearly?
 
@MadMAxJr DLC before launch date
 
The one that gets them the most money that marketing shows gamers will pay for.
 
@Powerlord daily blood sacrifice
 
7:33 PM
Apparently Valve updated L4D2 today for the first time in forever.
I can't see their site to see what it is.
 
Over in the pen and paper roleplaying world, Paizo, who makes Pathfinder offers 'subscriptions' to product lines where they just ship you the products as they drop. Figure video games will hit that at some point.
 
And also a 70/12 dollar fee per month
 
@Chippies WiiU gamertag?
 
@MadMAxJr You've heard of PS+?
 
Whatever that math is
 
7:33 PM
L4D2 Patch notes: Localization update, random words slightly altered in random files to make people think L4D3 hints are in here
@JasonBerkan They put popular titles that are a few months old in there, monthly, right?
 
@spugsley Just made it to Skyhold.
 
@MadMAxJr hmmm... Half Life Forever Pass

Q: Final Stand: Does the hover tank set off enemy mines?

NullThe Final Stand DLC for Battlefield 4 has introduced a hover tank. Does it set off enemy mines? If such a thing existed in real life I would expect that the force of the thrusters keeping it off the ground would set off the mines. I'm not sure how the game determines when the mine should be deto...

 
for a small monthly fee you can get all next Half Life games as soon as they are released!
 
:(
 
7:42 PM
@MadMAxJr Patch Notes
 
"Hey guys, sorry HL3 took so long. So we could get a proper feel for the game, we all got MIT educations in engineering, physics, and material studies, then created an alien race to enslave all of us here at Valve, so we could accurately get a feel for how the game should look, for the optimal player experience. We lost a lot of good men and women."
@Powerlord Blocked by work sadly.
 
Fixed some exploit thanks people who found it, looks like
 
@MadMAxJr ...same here, but I worked around that using SSH to remote to another server and used lynx
Apparently it's mostly server crash fixes.
 
Oh. Wait. Duh. I have a cell phone. MYSTICAL 4G NETWORK, SHOW ME THESE PATCH NOTES.

Q: Does invulnerability work in Sacrifice room?

pinckermanAs I remember, in the old version of Binding of Isaac using items like Book Of Shadows, My Little Unicorn, or The Gamekid when passing over the spikes will render the player invulnerable to the spikes and quickly spawn the chest. Does this "trick" still work in Rebirth?

Q: Minecraft Laucher opens but the game won't start?

CornySo when I click on to Minecraft in my start menu (I have a windows 7 computer) the Minecraft Laucher opens (title on screen is Minecraft Launcher 1.5.3) I click play but then a tab comes up called Game Output (my profile username) with nothing happening I click play again and still nothing happen...

 
7:48 PM
> An update has been released for Left 4 Dead 2. - Fixed an exploit that could shut down dedicated servers. - Fixed a slow memory leak on Linux dedicated servers. - Fixed a buffer overflow exploit in Squirrel. - Thank you to Gamers 4 Croydon.
(sic)
 
Apparently they changed... something in the update as its reportedly forcing dedicated servers to do a complete redownload.
 
'Fixed buffer overflow exploit in Squirrel' Can't have squirrels being too powerful.
 
Or maybe they just screwed up the server packages in Steam
 
soo.... Among the sleep...is creepy as heck
 
7:49 PM
@MadMAxJr It's the name of the Mutation System's scripting language.
 
or people being able to access kernel privileges in squirrels!
think of all the nut stealing
 
@Powerlord My imagination chooses otherwise.
We've always been told that we can change the world! Valve just figured out where the repo is and how to do commits.
 
Just stay away from dev-build earth and you'll be fine.
 
@MadMAxJr oops, got a compilation error
 
7:54 PM
@MattGiltaji No going home until you fix the build.
 
@MadMAxJr according to the build his home now encompasses several galaxies
 
@badp looking through the commit log, it seems that @Wipqozn committed some wacky stuff, unmerging it now
 
badp has removed Wipqozn from the list of this room's owners.
7
 
Okay, who changed the squirrel height setting by adding a few zeros with the comment 'debugging' ?
 
thanks @Feeds, compiling properly now
 
7:57 PM
lol, why is it that @Wipqozn getting removed is so worthy of stars? xD
 
BUILD STATUS: GREEN
nothing to see here, move along, move along
 
@RPiAwesomeness It's memetic
That's the only reason
 
bug tracker is showing that certain types of stars now 'draw aggro'. I think we can fix that one later.
Dim existence as New Galaxy //That's right I'm coding existence in VB.NET, FEAR.
 
var existence = new Galaxy();
 
@OrigamiRobot Or .. Ya know.. People could realize that Early Access is the same thing as Dev Build... But .. well maybe that's too much for people to realize the same thing can have multiple ways to reference it...

@RPiAwesomeness Its not, Its just a dead horse they keep on beating they are actually kicking each other in the shins.. the horse is done and gone.
 
Man, I really like Lollipop
 
@James i was implying that 90% of people's problems with it are because they didn't realize that fact.
 
STOP HORSING AROUND!

Q: Can you save everyone in Haven?

YuukiDuring the invasion, you are tasked with rescuing several people. However, no matter how many times I try, I can never seem to save them all. Is this intended or am I doing something wrong?

Q: How does Jack's dopplegangers work?

ChaseCHow does their aggro work? Do they attack the closest enemy or the weakest or strongest? How does their damage stack up to yours? Is it the same or a percentage? Do they use grenades if you have any grenade ammo? What gun do they use? In a certain slot or the one equipped when they spawn? Do ...

 
@SaintWacko I do not! :(
Wow.. How did I get inbetween @Lazers :D
 
@Lazers Is the DLC out already? That seems awful fast.
 
@Frank Preorder DLC/day one DLC?Skinpack? Other terribleness?
 
@Frank Yes
 
@Unionhawk Huh. Cool.
 
8:05 PM
@Arperum No, it's a new playable character. It's borderlands DLC. Gearbox is usually good with DLC.
 
Borderlands: Oz edition has been fairly entertaining.
 
@Unionhawk Acceptable.
 
It makes Handsome Jack a playable character (or his double? It's complicated.)
 
It's his double.
Who makes more doubles.
 
Yes, that
 
8:07 PM
@Lazers It's a bit annoying that we can't really avoid spoilers on the site
 
@MadScientist The Haven question that just popped up?
 
@MadMAxJr yes
 
Ah yes you linked it.
Great, so I have that to look forward to.
 
Though I was spoilered for the existence of that fact by the achievements list already
 
I'm still in the dang Hinterlands, convinced I can do everything.
Make camp, look into a cave, aaaand Oh hey what's that. Trees.. And. Oh. that's. Fireballs. From the sky. Nooope.
 
8:08 PM
So is Inquisition a worthy successor to Origins?
And let us never speak of DA2.
 
Inquisition is different.
 
@MadMAxJr Don't, go immediately to Val Royeaux once that is available. You'll be able to get new companions immediately after that, and the mission itself is very short
 
I miss the interface of DA: Origins.
 
@Frank It's not a successor to Origins, it's not a tactical RPG, it's closer to action RPG from the mechanics
 
Yeah, very much action RPG.
 
8:09 PM
@MadScientist But...I thought you could pause it, just like Origins?
 
It went through the same gameplay grinder as Mass Effect.
You can pause it.

Q: Minecraft mods, please help me!

Tristan CarterI'm not a computer genius, I probably don't know or understand half the stuff you guys do about computers, but I'm not an idiot either. My question is this: Is there a way you can use two (or preferably multiple) different version mods at the same time. For example, I have a mod that requires For...

 
You can get a top-down view.. It's just not geared for it.
I tried the mouse and keyboard layout. I wanted to make it work. I caved and went to the controller layout.
 
@Frank Yes, but that is a very limited tactical view (almost unuseable with keyboard and mouse). It's really not the same as Origins in that regard, and if you expect that you'll be dissappointed
 
My eye-twitch grrr issue from DA2 is still present in DA3. Mages with staffs use them like kung-fu guns.
 
8:11 PM
@MadScientist I'm already disappointed. The tactical queuing was one of the best parts of Origins.
 
Though I am glad the feature of having casual conversation, soaked in the blood of your enemies is still 'a thing'.
Also, from what I can tell so far, this adventure is not Grey Warden-centric.
The terrain is skyrim-ish. I was shocked to find I could hop over a wall and climb up to the bases of mountains. The 'invisible wall cause this is the edge of the area' is much further out than I thought.
 
Apparently everyone seems to have missed that today was our big boss's birthday.
 
My biggest issue is the inventory system, it's rather annoying to compare everything. And I've got a whole bunch of higher level items I can't equip yet that block space in my inventory
 
@MadScientist There's a couple perks that'll tack 15 more slots on.
 
8:14 PM
@MadScientist No central storage location?
 
No dump chest this time, not that I can tell
 
And now I make my exit while the angry wolves of The Bridge destroy Activision over this
 
@Frank Not as far as I know
 
@MadMAxJr yeah, parking trucks is not easy
 
The item limit shouldn't be a problem if you pay attention, but I ran into it in one main mission (just barely, I had to destroy two or three items)
 
8:15 PM
@MadMAxJr at least it's not VBA
 
But the whole game is certainly enormous, I've only scratched the surface so far and I've been playing since monday.
 
@James lol
 
I also like that enemies are not levelled, I quickly retreated when seeing a dragon in the very first area
 
@MadScientist Same. Saw it take off. "Nope." Turned right around.
Been amused at the few places I've seen so far where previous game choices have affected the DA3 story.
 
I did try to kill the level 8 bandit chief (or something) in the Hinterlands and failed miserably. I'll have to revisit that area now that I'm at a higher level
 
8:18 PM
Varric telling me where DA2 characters are now was nice.
Minor characters commented on some of my DA1 choices.
 
It's nice to meet you [insert character name here]. I remember that you [insert choice here] for [insert person here].
 
I was happy to see 'super awesome preorder DLC' wasn't uber game breaking. It was a mild boost, but I already see that gear a few hours further in will surpass it.
 
Chocolate.
 
Mage got some fancy gold dragon-scale decorated robes, and a staff. They're good, but there's better just around the corner.
 
Oooooooooooh I just found the perfect image with which to make a dramatic entry
 
8:21 PM
One thing that did surprise me right now is that it only works with 64bit Windows. Though the computer I'm at now probably would have struggled in any case
 
With my nice payday, I may have to investigate building a new rig.
 
@MadScientist I was surprised to see DirectX 11 seems to be the minimum for it. I guess that slider goes over to DX12.
 
My current one is...four? years old.

I told the team I'll be leaving in two weeks. Wasn't as awkward as I thought it'd be. It's like a weight's been lifted.
But I had to make up something for what my next step was because "I just don't feel like working here anymore" would leave too much room for them to try to convince me to stay.
 
@Koviko Got another job lined up?
 
8:24 PM
Nope.

I see it every day. I'm not used to this in the RPG queues.
Over there it's 'Close this because the person is asking for opinions' in huge stacks.
Over here it's 'Help it broke, no details'
 
I'm hoping Sega sees the sales of PC Valkyria Chronicles, and decides to release the other two on PC as well.
 
8:33 PM
@Frank 2 and 3 were PSP only weren't they?
 
@TimStone Yeah, it doesn't matter what rules they come up with. SOMEONE is going to sue them for it.

I'm confused
 
ExecutorService queue = Executors.newSingleThreadExecutor()
 
But whatever
 
I want good rules that accomplish what I need, an open Internet, that google pipes directly into my home.
 
8:35 PM
@MadMAxJr They were, yeah.
But 2 was in English, and 3 has a translation patch.
 
Ouch, 3 didn't get an english release? Eeesh.
Reminds me of the painful sting when I saw we were not getting Yakuza 5.
 
I really hope this is the FCC setting up a bait-and-switch with ISPs or sommat.
"Sure, take me over here, no nevermind, we're going this way"
 
That picture reminds me of what I should be doing when one of the other guys in the cubes here says "Hey theres a sale on steam!"
 
Either that or they are legitimately not sure what they want to do.
 
@Unionhawk He's basically saying the reason they haven't done anything yet (and they are going to do something, which the ISPs won't like) is that they want to be sure to win the inevitable court battle, which means accounting for all the bullshit technicalities the ISPs will come up with to try and get the rules overturned.
 
8:39 PM
Aha!
Good thinking!
 
In related news, the FCC is also not too happy about that whole discontinuing copper service without reliable emergency alternatives thing
Man, I like my FiOS service, but Verizon makes a lot of dumb decisions.

Q: Revisit Smash Bros 4 tag

meme scientistThere are huge funadmental differences already known between the 3ds and WiiU version of Smash Bros 4 tag. The previous meta post indicates we'd like to stick with smash-bros-4, but since there are fundamental differences, including ui, gamemmodes, matchmaking, characters, I think it's far better...

 
@TimStone They've been trying to dump their non-profitable areas wholesale, and not offer a solution to those they leave high and dry.
Which is pretty scummy.

Q: How can I change the size of the control bar in Command & Conquer: Generals?

Willem RooversI already changed the camera height and that gives a lot better overview in the game but the control bar (the bar in the bottom of the screen) is still very big for a full-HD (1920x1080) resolution. Can I make this bar smaller in any way? Thanks

@Wipqozn I believe it's jennfays
I've never really added anyone on WiiU, not entirely sure how the online stuff works
 
Wow, this scammer is persistent. I've never seen one try this hard to impersonate a company.
 
I don't really understand how to use multiple profiles on WiiU, I should look that up
 
@Batophobia it's all about the same part of a game, so I'd say no.
 
9:31 PM
@Unionhawk Kinda how I was leaning too, but 8 questions in 1 still seems like a lot
 
@Batophobia It could be boiled down to "What are the combat mechanics of Jack's Action Skill" though
 
Yeah, but it's good to define what you mean by "how does this work"
 
@Unionhawk Good point
 
The core question is "how does this work". If it was "how does Jacks skill work and also is claptraps skill totally random" I'd have issues with it. But it's not.

@ori yep, high of 58 on Sunday. All snow will be long gone. (possible flurries on Thursday)
 
Whoever posted that Partially Clips comic, thank you
These are brilliant

Q: stuck at 33% when patching client?

Matt CristaoAnyone ever gets stuck at 33 percent when your patching your LoL client? Hopefully I'm not the only one. How do I get this fixed? I tried to close it but then it stays at 33% for hours.

 
@Yuuki It's like a player piano, except the music is the screams of hard drives
 
So I think a couple people were complaining about an Avatar episode being a clip show.
This is why. Nickelodeon basically decimated their budget so they did a clip show as to not fire half their crew.

@Yuuki Ugh, why does Nickelodeon do this?
 
@Yuuki That article seems to say that Nickelodeon only cut one episode's worth of budget. Which I guess is approximately a proper use of the word "decimate"
 
@murgatroid99 Well yeah, seasons are usually around 12-13 episodes. Then again, I guess 1/12 < 1/10, so I might be exaggerating a bit.
 
@Yuuki heximate
 
Arg, I should not have to replace a CFL bulb after less than 6 months. It was an expensive tri-state one too.
 
@StrixVaria Want to play some rounds?

@MBraedley Those never seem to last as long as they're supposed to for me. The seal always develops a hole.
 
@TrentHawkins I don't see anything physically wrong with the bulb. It just stopped working. I'll see if Crappy Tire has any tri-state LED bulbs.
 
@MBraedley Currently using 3 chandelier LED bulbs from Ikea in my room. Expensive as hell, but they've lasted over a year of being on nearly all day.
 
I hoped I still had the receipt, but I can't seem to find it. Even an incandescent bulb should last longer than that. Actually, come to think of it, I just discovered my kitchen has an incandescent bulb that I can pillage. Just need to pick up a 1000 lumen bulb instead of one that's specifically tri-state (although I might get a tri-state for another lamp anyway).
 
@StrixVaria @murgatroid99 If either of you guys are up for some games just ping me. I'll be in the next room so I might not here th eping, so I'll just poke my head in here after every match against a random.
 
Shit, those tri-state lamps take a special bulb.
 
11:45 PM
@Wipqozn I'm at work. I'll be home soonish.
Also, did you manage to friend request me?
 
@Wipqozn join my room
@Wipqozn I don't know what the deal was with the lag.
But I couldn't take it any more.
Maybe you try hosting?
 
@StrixVaria I'll give it a shot, but I don't think it's us. I think the servers are overloaded.
 
@Wipqozn Oh that's actually probably about right.
 
I've been playing since 8am my time, and in the past couple hours it's starting to get laggy
bnefore that it was perfectly fine
 
Maybe tomorrow then.
 
11:54 PM
@murgatroid99 yes
 
I need to figure out wtf that character you were using even does, anyway.
 
@StrixVaria Want to give it a try with me hosting?
 
Probably people who didn't get it at midnight are starting to play
 
I don't see it mattering, but mine as well try
 
@Wipqozn Sure, but if it lags I'm going to step out.
 
11:54 PM
@StrixVaria mhm
was thinking the same
I've had enough lag for the time being, haha
and I'll explain my character after we finish (since I assume we'll lag out :P)
 
@StrixVaria room made
