Back when i played America's Army, I used to run a little scam much like the old "duping" scams of Diablo. I would find a random teammate not opposed to "infinite grenades man!" and school him on how to exploit this great bug. Ok, now...take 5 steps back jump forward. Crouch, stand, crouch... now throw your gun on the floor...circle 360 degrees exactly... 5 steps back again...lay down... That is when I would jump forward and grab their gun, crowing triumphantly! It didn't often work, and it was a one round thing, but the satisfaction of taking a greedy fool for a ride was all worth it.

If you do something, totally innocently and accidentally, is it still grief? For some reason that escapes me now, I was trying to trigger the CLUCK! quest in WoW. Basically you have to emote /chicken at a certain chicken, which gets it to go friendly to you instead of neutral (and killable). The number of times you have to emote is random, and I watched while this one guy did it for what had to be five minutes. I'd heard that it was possible to get the quest if someone else got the chicken to go friendly, so as soon as he got it green, I scooted up and clicked on it. Just as I clicked, I realized that my cursor was in combat mode. "*gack*" goes the chicken. "YOU PEACE OF poo poo" goes the NE dude who had been chicken-dancing for five minutes. I was mortified at first, but as soon as he started to scream at me, the whole situation struck me as utterly loving hilarious. I couldn't stop laughing. On another occasion, I was in a ten-man raid of Lower Blackrock. This was long before Burning Crusade, so it was still a pretty big deal. It was my first raid, and I had a quest to summon and kill this ogre lord down there. Prior experience taught me that pubbies rarely gave a poo poo about side-quests in dungeons, so I took the initiative and performed the summoning. Immediately, one of my teammates starts screaming at me. Ten seconds later, while I'm rolling my eyes at this dork who just won't shut up about my ancestry, the whole team (which had been split) gets steamrolled by an ungodly number of ogre lords. Then I remembered that while you can trigger quest events while in a raid, you don't get any reward for them. Oops.

One noticable instance was when I blew a member of the opposing team into the air right as another teammate fired off the guided redeemer. The redeemer travels two feet, hits the one enemy, and vaporizes half our side.  I've been the cause of more than a couple incidences of this kind of faux-griefing, and it's usually as hilarious as it is cringeworthy.

I played one round of Bog on COD4 and there was this one OPFOR who had cheated to be both invulnerable and disguised as a Marine, yet he still only placed 4th or 5th at the end. How the hell can anyone be that terrible?

Seriously, Steam and VAC ban all aimbots, even the ones you have to pay for. They don't do it every day, because people would just build ones harder to detect; they let it go for weeks/months and record all the accounts and do mass bannings. So if it really pisses you off that badly that someone's aim botting, take heart in the fact they'll get banned and have wasted money on the both the bot and the game. And also stop talking about it while you're at it.

Man, I tried to download second life and play it. I meet all the system requirements, and while my graphics card is just an intel 945 integrated chipset on a laptop, it is still meets the requirements. Everything looks like total poo poo when I try to play, gray everywhere and every image loads into three different terribly compressed jpegs before finally rendering. Any ideas? Not sure where to post this as there is no second life thread, this is where I have seen the most discussion of it...

This sounds more like a bandwidth issue than anything else. Although it is always a little slow loading the first time you enter a new area. You can increase the bandwidth Second Life uses by going edit - preferences - network and increasing the slider - but if you have a bad internet speed to begin with it's not going to help much.

I see nothing out of the ordinary here. Seriously though, the game looks like utter rear end even in decent areas. I suppose you can't expect too much of it, but jesus. The gray is textures that haven't loaded yet, and the terrible compression is just part of the texture in the process of loading. It sure is great what Linden Labs can do with all that cash, eh?

Luigi Thirty posted:You can do it in Mechwarrior 2, though. If you cram 12 machine guns on a mech, it'll melt just about anything in about 3 seconds. Unfortunately, the patch for MW2: Mercs that introduced dynamic salvaging (previously all salvage was predetermined no matter what you did) introduced a horrible bug: both laser and AC weapons, if fired during a previous shot's animation (the flareup for lasers or the sparks for AC) are guarentee'd to miss even if you hit them directly in the torso. So if you're cycling weapons it'll completely screw you over. Not sure about alpha strikes though.

Way back in June of 2006 I was just randomly playing a game of iSketch (it's basically online Pictionary, you get a word to draw and other people try to guess it). It was pretty late at night, and out of sheer boredom/sleep deprivation I drew a duck (a poorly drawn one at that). My word was not duck, I just drew one anyway. Much to my surprise, people hated it. They apparently took their online Pictionary very, very seriously. This started a small campaign where me and 2 other friends just went around drawing ducks and sharing stories. I took a lot of screencaps, but looking back on them none of them are particularly good or funny because I never bothered to capture reactions. We had our laughs and I tucked it into a far corner of my mind. Then this morning, someone reminded me of it. I figured "hey, why not do it again and take better screenshots this time?". So I did. iSketch still hates it.  The first step is to get your duck drawing formula down, there is a time limit involved! These are how my ducks generally look.  Then you draw and watch the game box scroll at maddening speeds with people typing in every word related to ducks and birds they can think of, sometimes pausing to yell for hints.  The reveal is usually the best part.   it's a big deal these here ducks Of course just drawing a duck would get dull, and that is why you have to spice things up!   Beautiful duck portraits bring dull pubbie observations.   Emotionally charged ducks bring emotionally charged outbursts.   Retarded ducks bring... retarded pubbies? (yeah sorry i didn't know how to link these two)

Yeah, a couple friends and I would draw completely irrelevant things in Inklink, which is Shockwave's Pictionary. It's especially funny when you go into the "expert" level rooms and get asked to draw ridiculous things like "intuition." There's nothing quite like drawing Hitler fending off the allies with Swastika-shaped shurukins and getting real guesses like "absurdity."

Luckily I was gone before he could finish saying my username so I can just change it and go back in a few days. I actually ended up being productive on another 24/7 2fort server later since a bunch of the Pyro achievements are 2fort-oriented.

Day 3 in second life for me. This time with picture! Though if you dont like pixelated poo, dont bother. I followed someones advice on seeking houses with 2 people in it, good change you catch them doing something they want to keep private. So i teleport to some nice beach houses of a sort, and saw 2 green dots on the map, i teleport to there house, and walk in through the front door, they were on the second floor watch tv for chrissakes... I walk around a bit, and when i stepped outside the front door, they somehow locked it, i dont think they were the owners, becouse they wouldnt ban me, just friends of the owner i guess, i stand outside the house looking through the windows like a perv, completely naked, they turn the windows black and i cant watch anymore :-(. Luck has it, they didnt lock the backdoor and i go through there, i take the stairs again and enter a room, which i like to call the creepy room... You see it was a baby room, with pictures of a pixel baby, they even had a photo book:    Ugh, time to go to the master bedroom, there i caught them red handed while they were preparing to get it on, girl was already naked, the guy was halfway there. I get naked too, strap on my dick, and start chasing the chick through the bedroom, no pictures of this sorry. They keep telling me to get lost, but decide they just leave instead. I take revenge by taking a dump in there dishwasher:  I stroll around the neighbourhood a bit, and see 2 more people together, lucky me! Its the same couple, they take off screaming when they see me peeking through the window though :-(  And some random pictures:   Two goons added me ingame, havent seen them yet, guess becouse of the time difference, im in europe. Should be fun to get a group together and invade couples houses. Ingame name: MrDutch Dezno MrDutch fucked around with this message at 14:37 on Jul 10, 2008 |
