Crowdfunded Projects (Kickstarter, Patreon, etc.)
prophetik music replied to DarkeSword's topic in General Discussion
because this is a crab fight, not a discussion. let others post kickstarters that are cool, rather than have you two dominate a few pages. -

haha, now we've gotten to the part of our program where you should take this to a pm, because nobody cares which of you is right. -

eight times above what was needed for what they originally wanted to do. he clearly bit off more than he can chew. that's an absurd amount of bloat. -
Is Star Wars: The Old Republic worth investing in?
prophetik music replied to Ptazza's topic in General Discussion
if you want to 'invest' in an mmo, i'd suggest one that's not your traditional WoW gameplay (unless you're into that? i don't know many that are still). there are a few upcoming ones that look good, like Pathfinder, and a few current ones that are still generating a lot of new content, like EvE and one or two others. -
FL always acts weird with the cpu bar in my experience. it'll say i've got 75% usage, and then i'll add a ton and it'll say 75% usage. i think that little thing doesn't function properly for the eight-thread processors. if you really want to test it, load up old projects and compare. while the cpu utilization might be high for real-time play, you'll likely have more headroom on the renders, and they'll render faster. also remember that names mean nothing. while your architecture improvements between whatever you had before and your new i7 (i7-what? 2500k? 3770k? 950?) should mean that 3ghz then doesn't equal 3ghz now, it does mean that 3ghz then might equal 2.5ghz now.

resurrecting this again. ocr needs a sale outlet. cleaned-up first post to follow. things i have for sale: xbox 360 slim with 20+ games, cabling, and one wireless MS controller. pristine condition for everything. games are: mass effect 1-3, riddick dark athena, force unleashed, fable 1 and 2 (1 is lost chapters for xbox), kotor 1 (for xbox), gears 1-3, halo 1-3, ODST, anniversary, and reach, 50c: blood on the sand, red faction: guerilla, crimson skies for xbox, mirror's edge, ninja gaiden for xbox, afro samurai, earth defense force 2017, rock band 2 with no pieces, and crackdown. my XBL account with 20+ XBL games is negotiable as well. it's only ever been paid with cards so it's easily transferred. best offer - i know i can get 200+ in gamestop credit, so i'd expect it to be up there somewhere. 2x M-00 studio monitors, with original documentation and boxes. these were 250$ per when i bought them, i'll take 350 OBO now. they're in pristine condition. http://www.nhthifi.com/NHT-M-00-230V (230v version, mine are the standard version) <- there's the speakers http://www.soundonsound.com/sos/mar05/articles/nht.htm <-there's a review blue NDS lite, small crack over one of the hinges, case and charger included. no stylus.

i wound up buying a line 6 bass pod live xt, for like 150$ with a gig bag. pretty nice little tool. already got a nice distorted lead sound that i used last sunday when i played in a breakdown - our songleader was like "wait, who has the lead guitar?" it's got a nice set of effects, too, the compressor is surprisingly decent for being totally digital.

that's what i love about it. like, the joke with some of the people i play with is that i do movespeed builds - hextech sweeper, twin shadows, shurelyas, zephyr, movespeed boots, etc. AND THEY WORK. having a 525 movespeed taric, an 1100 movespeed rammus, or a 500 movespeed blitz without boots is not only hilarious, it is really tough to deal with in a skill-shot-centric gametype. being able to do other weird stuff, like hybrid yorick, or ad janna, is super fun too =) and no one cares if you dick around with a dumb build. edit: another fun one is on-hit soraka, and AS nautilus. his attack animation breaks around 1.9 or so, and he flails so fast that it's hard to see what's going on.

i am going on a limb here. please don't be offended if i'm wrong, but this doesn't actually sound like LoL's community. it sounds like a caricatured version of LoL's community. since i've done a ton - a TON - of smurfing, i know what the game looks like to newbies. this isn't what happens until roughly level 20, when people know the basic champs but still don't really have a clue how to do anything. are you sure your view of the game isn't influenced solely by what penny arcade and ctrl-alt-del say? because, when you're under level 5, no one really understands the lanes at all. LoL's community has been commented and reported on extensively...are you sure you actually played and aren't just reading those articles? because in probably three hundred games of below-level-10 play, i've never ever experienced that kind of behavior. especially if you do coops. those are tons of fun and people never say a word most of the time. edit: also, unless you're doing customs, no one can boot you. customs are for people looking for specific matchups, and i doubt they'd want a brand-new pubbie in there. so don't know where you came up with that. edit 2: what sir nuts said is exactly right. in a game with the depth of strategy that LoL has, don't go in expecting to pick up a gun and get a few headshots your first game. it's a game that rewards delving into the strategies for each character, and behind team compositions. it's not for someone who has a bad first experience and then says "i quit". i mean, the whole point of the game is to deny someone else the ability to have fun for 20-45 minutes. you weren't expecting hearts and YOU WIN messages, were you? when it works, it's awesome and exceptionally entertaining and there's a great thrill of knowing you not only did a great job of working as a team and individually, but you prevailed over someone else doing their best to be better than you. that's a great feeling. it also means that you've gotta lose often, and i know my w/l record early was terrible as i got through that.

well, it's notable that he's one of the few junglers without a gap close. he has a speedup, but it's not a dash, teleport, wall, or launch of any kind. like, jarvan has his dash, vi has a dash, zac has his jump, noc has a dash, diana has a dash and a stun, wick has a teleport. trundle also has a speed up but has that pillar. voli's got the speedup but he actually displaces people rather than just stuns them for a second.

noc's great at nailing that out-of-position top early on, but beyond that his ganks can be underwhelming until 6. just keep that in mind, and focus on getting XP wherever you are. mid's going back? sit in lane and last hit a bit. top's pushed? get in their jungle and grab wraiths or wolves. characters like fiddlesticks and diana are the same way - they can get ganking kills before six, but it's usually because of something stupid that the other person did rather than a good play. they're just very item/ult dependent.

Dragon Army Revival thread
prophetik music replied to Sam Ascher-Weiss's topic in General Discussion
unfortunately prot (i think?) had access to it, and stole everyone's passwords. since everyone including me is a lemming, he was able to log in as them and post inflammatory messages. i had to change the password for most of my accounts. it was kind of frustrating. everyone on OCR who was registered over there was banned until djp could alert everyone and get them to change their password. -

the best play i've ever seen a zac make was where he survived a big fight in an aram with almost no hp and was the last one alive. he took out a tower, charged up a jump, and sailed over the newly respawned enemy team into their fountain, posting "IM OUT NERDS" in allchat. he got a turret death instead of a player death. brilliance in game form. of course, the fact that it wasn't a meaningful play says something.
