Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

    No, I am far from both the flooding and the tornado.

    edit: I'm a bit southwest of the center of the county. The flooding is in the north, the tornado warning was in the east

    Echo what is your opinion of the hunting rifle in STALKER

    In COP I've basically been using nothing else without even realizing it. I was intending to pick up an AN-94 early on but it just didn't happen. I've just been one-twoing people with slugs.

    What you think "makes sense" has nothing to do with reality. It just has to do with your life experience. And your life experience may only be a small smidgen of reality. Possibly even a distorted account of reality at that. So what this means is that, beginning in the 20th century as our means of decoding nature became more and more powerful, we started realizing our common sense is no longer a tool to pass judgment on whether or not a scientific theory is correct. - Neil Degrasse Tyson

    I got to make a man slam a phone down in anger at me yesterday. But it's not part of my normal job duties. :P

    You can replace PSU fans as long as you are careful not to touch anything inside the PSU casing.

    Unless electrocution is your thing.

    I favour Akasa Amber series.

    Yeah, yeah, that's pretty much what it's like. You have to talk shit to infantry or they don't respect you. And if you don't have their respect you basically don't have a job.

    I made a fuck up

    shit shit shit

    goddamnit

    What kind of fuck up?

    I promised to go out for a friend's birthday after bailing on some other shit (Like nights out to a gay bar, football matches, etc)

    It was yesterday and I completely forgot. No going out, no seeing her, no texts, not even a facebook message...

    shit

    That's not so bad.

    The trick is to get your apology in early, and accompany it with a gift. Make nebulous references to some kind of family stuff coming up. Nobody ever probes too deeply into stuff like that.
    I already told her I couldn't go out (She knows my financial situation) but apparently it was her actual birthday, and I wasn't aware of this. She told me several times in the past she wasn't doing something on her birthday etc etc, so I didn't think it was yesterday...

    People forget birthdays, right?

    That over/under barrel rifle?

    I never really used it all that much - I like shotguns to deal with mutants, but they tend to come in packs more often than not and it reloads too slow.

    Have you found the Eliminator?

    Yeah, I mucked about in my old PSU as well when that fan gave up. I've just haven't been arsed to crack this one open. Such a hassle to get it out of the case.

    I don't use it as a shotgun. I don't even carry buckshot. I just hurl slugs into people's faces from miles away.

    My favourite line is:

    "Liability is firmly disputed, we leave it to you to take whatever steps are appropriate. We appoint [lawyers] to accept service of proceedings on our behalf."

    It's basically the legalese equivalent of: "Go ahead, punk. Make my day."

    Imma make some Frito pie tonight. Nom that shit like a motherfucker.

    If that woman's cleavedge made one more person pick the game up off the shelf, it was a net positive for microprose. And to be blunt, if taking her top off could have increased sales enough to get a sequel, I'd endorse it 100000% because I like playing great games.

    This is because the amount of interest in getting the game has DESTROYED the people behind it. I don't know if they realised the amount of appeal this caused. On last count when the torrents were still running, the seed/peer rate had reached 100,000.

    ONE

    HUNDRED

    THOUSAND!!

    Madness. More madness though is this MTX stuff, which is just amateur rubbish, and the neccessity to tie all there infracstructure into it is sheer idiocy.

    I'm still working on trying to get the mtx up via my ftp. i'll see what happens tomorrow.
