Has anyone else seen the new System Shock game? It looks neat, but for some reason they decided to title it Prey.

I would have said Bioshock, but yeah.

I was into the demo until the first enemy showed up. Then i stopped being into the demo.

"Sharpest View of the Andromeda Galaxy, Ever. The NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope has captured the sharpest and biggest image ever taken of the Andromeda galaxy — a whopping 69,536 x 22,230 pixels. The enormous image is the biggest Hubble image ever released and shows over 100 million stars and thousands of star clusters embedded in a section of the galaxy’s pancake-shaped disc stretching across over 40,000 light-years. Use the ZOOM TOOL to view in full detail."

It reminds me so much of that first person XCOM game a few years back.

When a game is using ink monsters, get out as fast as you can and never look back.

Funny thing is that the XCOM game had some Bioshock developers behind it too.

*Andromeda

The best part about this image is that our own Sun wouldn't be bright enough to make it into that picture. Think about the amount of worlds that exist in those dark spaces.

[Vol]

Quick question for you, Sci. I'm aware space is empty, really, really, really empty.

So if you were crossing galaxies, and your projected path seemed good, would you put any resources into more than bare-bones scanning and shielding against debris if you went the cryo-stasis way?

@Mob: Well done, soldier. Time to celebrate. Work party!

Also, 3 awful teams in Quick Play in a row is seriously taxing.

[Mobius_118]

No party, only Zuul.

I gotta pack my shit and move home for the summer. All my summer classes went online, no point in staying around.

[SciFlyBoy]

@Vol. Space between galaxies are pretty empty of matter as far as we know. But there are two things that still effect you. One is the gravity between the galaxies. The gravity of the milky way will slow you down as you exit, just as probes slow down leaving the solar system because the Sun's gravity still effects them. So plan to make course corrections or finding a way to exit the galaxy faster to accommodate that. The other factor is "dum dum dum!" dark matter, which gravity will still have an effect on. Some Hubble scientists say there's five times more dark matter than regular matter in the known universe and it collects itself into thin web like structures. http://hubblesite.org/explore_astronomy ... n-galaxies So you'd aim your ship to go through the void areas.

So to answer your question, with a good projected path and a program that will make corrections, effective shielding and good battery life the only resource I'd bring are boxes on condoms and signs telling sexy alien marauders where our sex organs are. Hey, I just came up with an idea for the May prompt.

How many of you are hardcore RPG storyline purists? What I mean is, how many of you when you make a decision in a game or screw something up you stick with it to the bitter end? I ask because I was playing DA2 and reached a point I couldn't get past unless I made 1 of 4 decisions. Now it affects (or effects) a character that might come back to kill me. I can go to a previous save and stock up on supplies to help me win it, but it's four hours before the last save, or I can see how it comes to bite me in the ass later in the game. I'll probably only play through DA2 once and I'd like to be hard core, stick with the choices I've made, but I'm unsure if it's worth the four hours just to keep this love interest from possibly slitting my throat. Thoughts?

[Vol]

Blizzard's silhouette system is not nearly as good as TF2's. Ana's fucking cloak, Zenny's folded legs, Hanzo's wolf hat, it all throws off aim real bad. Obviously practice will correct it, but it should be intuitive where the center mass is relative to the head.

@Sci: Eh. If I have a save within the last 30 minutes, maybe. But generally I'll let it ride and see what happens, unless it's in the first 5% of the game.

Sometimes I commit to a decision with less favorable outcomes but it's because I usually intentionally play it that way knowing the consequences. (Example: keeping Bull in the Qun means dead Chargers and Bull eventually betrays you). If something in left field happens like a Shymalan twist, I usually reload because it doesn't feel like a real consequence and just cheap - more a random anvil falling on my head. (Example: failing to pick an entirely unclear dialog choice that "hardens" Alistair potentially makes him do things quite differently in the end game.)

In short, it's 100% determined by how realistic the consequence feels.

[Vol]

Backbrace on, compression sleeve on left knee, compression gloves on both hands, ibuprofen, that's what it takes to sit at my computer and type without any pain. Amazing.

Might want to consider yoga. Gotta have that reach and flexibility.

I stick by my decisions, but when I'm playing a game like that, I always do multiple playthroughs anyway. So if something goes sideways because of a choice I made and I don't like the results, then no biggie.

I made numerous playthroughs of ME2 with the single objective of just having different outcomes and choices in regards to Tali and Legion because at the time I had no idea how the Geth-Quarian thing would resolve itself in ME3, for example, and I wanted all my bases covered.

[Dragaros]

“In the first age, in the first battle, when the shadows first lengthened, one stood. Burned by the embers of Armageddon, his soul blistered by the fires of Hell and tainted beyond ascension, he chose the path of perpetual torment. In his ravenous hatred he found no peace; and with boiling blood he scoured the Umbral Plains seeking vengeance against the dark lords who had wronged him. He wore the crown of the Night Sentinels, and those that tasted the bite of his sword named him... the Doom Slayer.”

ME2 was worth my time though, I'm finally going my Garrus LI run. I will finish DA2, because I do like it. However I felt cheated because my team was instantly taken away from me for the first time in the game and I felt it went against how I strategically set up my fighting style, seemed unfair. Honestly I was thinking I could go back and stock up on buffing and debuffing potions like crazy and just wear the opponent down. That's not too spoilery is it?

Hot dogs and burritos are sandwiches.

[Mazder]

Hot dogs and burritos are sandwiches.

Wouldn't a hotdog be a bread-Taco?
Because it's open and cups the meat and whatnot?

[Vol]

A sausage sandwich is clearly a sandwich, and hotdogs are all but sausages, and sometimes (poor) people eat them with white bread instead of rolls, so they clearly must be. And then tacos/burritos count by virtue of being a meat/vegetable filling, often with a condiment and cheese, encapsulated in bread.

In America, if you ever visit, it is vitally important you be prepared to argue and possibly fight someone over this.

Ah, but a sausage and white bread isn't a hot-dog. That's a sausage butty. A hot-dog isn't s sandwhich because it's open faced, if there isn't an open face to cradle onions/sauces it's not a hotdog, but a butty.
Even if one round of bread is used it's still not a roll, which is a defining factor of a hot-dog, it being made from a whole item of bread instead of a unit, of a once whole item of bread. A taco is similar, it being it's own whole item of bread. You have one Tortilla wrap. Not a slice of a tortilla, but a whole one.
A slice is a slice, a roll, is not a slice, a roll is a roll. Cut a roll in half you have half of a whole entity, but halve a slice of bread you have half of a piece of a whole, so you have less by definition, so it could not be the equivalent of a hot-dog, therefore a hotdog isn't a sandwich, but a thick-bread-taco as both Taco's and Hot-dog's are made from a single entity of their version of bread.

Also would that make a Calzone a tomato based Pasty?

[TheodoricFriede]

Hot dogs and burritos are sandwiches.

Hold the fuck on. I will allow you the Hot Dog argument, but a Burrito is clearly a wrap.

[Dragaros]

Hot dogs and burritos are sandwiches.

Vehemently disagree!


And how serendipitous, I was going to post this:

[TheodoricFriede]

Im ingredient Rebel for sure.

Edit: But a Taco isnt a sandwich in any form, and if you believe it is you are a bad person.

[Vol]

Oh I see how it is. Y'all wanna gang up on me with your sandwich heresy. Gonna put me up on the toast-cross and make me eat all those vinegar-sauces that make me sick.

Fine. I'll be your savior, I'll enlighten you all about sandwich canon. Bring it on.

“Those of you familiar with the Warhammer 40,000 universe who have seen the new galaxy map, will certainly have spotted at least one major change. The Great Rift is a tear in reality that essentially divides the Imperium in half. Its emergence was a literal galaxy-shattering event, which threw the Imperium into chaos and ushered in new wars across nearly every world in the Imperium. So powerful and far was this storm that the very laws of physics fray at the edges as the inconsistencies of time fluctuations, once largely localised to larger storms such as the Eye of Terror, spread across the galaxy. Some worlds felt centuries go by in an instant while others were all but frozen in time, and still others have suffered constant temporal shifts. None fully understand the origins of the rift – though there are many theories: the breach of the Cadian Gate, the sorcery of a Daemon Primarch, catastrophe in the Webway, mass bloodshed and fire in the Damocles Gulf – all may have caused or contributed to it. The rift is variously known by the cultures of the galaxy as the Crimson Path, the Mouth of Ruin, the Warpscar, the Dathedian, Gork’s Grin and a thousand other names besides. To the Imperium it is the Cicatrix Maledictum, or just the Great Rift. To those on the Terran side, it is a tainted scar across the sky. To those unfortunates on the far side, it is far worse… While we saw the beginnings of this great tear in the events of the Gathering Storm, in the story of the new Warhammer 40,000, Roboute Guilliman, Lord Commander of the Imperium’s armies, looks out over the ruins of his Father’s empire and sets about its reconquest in a crusade to liberate those worlds embattled by the forces of Chaos and free those beset by xenos predators closing in on the weakened worlds of Mankind.”
