tooterfish posted:Why does the scope of a space laser gun have markings for compensating for bullet drop and wind speed? Because in this space game you may be also fighting on a gas giant, where gravity will be sixteen times more than that of earth. So you will need a high resolution bullet drop marker to account for the turbulent wind generated from the exhaust blast of the reclaimer you are hiding next to. Edit my other catte:

Beer4TheBeerGod posted:Hey Ben, It's not so much of a case of Ben making bad decisions as community manager, it's the fact that a gigantic fanboy is completely and utterly unsuitable for a position like that. The purpose of a community manager is to maintain a civilized and friendly community and to ensure that no one opinion is able to drown out everything else. It's just not possible for someone in Ben's position to perform that role. It's the Chris Roberts attitude towards everything it seems. Why can't we just make our biggest fan run the forums? Why can't we just write the game without a defined scope? Why can't we just make it an MMO? Why can't I just say yes to this cool sounding suggestion about procedurally generated wildlife? Why can't I unapprove anything I want if I decide I don't like it? All his professional life Chris Roberts has been told "no" by publishers and bosses who actually know what they're doing, but he's never absorbed any of the reasons behind it. Finally he's got all the money in the world and no accountability, time to do all those awesome things that the publishers always said no to! He's like a kid that's always been told that he can't just eat cake all the time but he's never really thought about why. Well now the kid is alone in the house and he's been stuffing his face with cake for hours. He still thinks it's a great idea and the grown ups are fools for not realising. What could possibly go wrong?

With VR support for both Oculus and Vive no less. Tested's new Vive video gives me a virtual boner. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GiDBp6OnsKY&feature=youtu.be Oculus Home being always connected to Facebook with full permissions on my computer kills that boner. http://uploadvr.com/facebook-oculus-privacy/ On another note, has anyone heard from or seen the cute girl everyone liked in the 1st ep of that Lore Builder series? I'm worried about her since she got so much attention from the sausages and they've just had lame dudes ever since. I'm afraid she's in mortal danger if she's not already buried in the desert.

Tijuana Bibliophile posted:In a thread full with photos of faces of immense punchability, Ryan Archer has my vote for strongest fist magnet More than that twerp who always wears bowties? Beet Wagon posted:the "Bobbit worm" as it's commonly called is a marine worm capable of reaching around ten feet in length. It lives in burrows in sand and corals, and is an ambush predator. It is notable for the gigantic loving blades it has for a mouth, which it uses to literally cut fish in half if they get too close. I read somewhere its bite can cause permanent numbness. Might be bollocks but it seems about right for an evil worm.

moveable shape posted:Interesting stuff, is the raw data available somewhere? What was the method used to collect this? I wish I had the foresight to set up a bot to scrap forum metrics from day 1 of this mess A list of users was scraped from the RSI forums general chat. The user forum profiles and citizen dossiers were then scraped to extract their backer title (which can sometimes differ between the two for reasons I don't entirely understand). I think about 10% of users had titles that didn't directly correspond to monetary levels. Min/max funding levels for backer titles were taken from the list at wikia. If the profile and dossier backer titles differed, the tone that corresponded to a higher monetary amount was selected. It might be interesting to rescrape a few months from now (assuming CIG is still a going concern) and see how the existing userbase has evolved.

Some users probably have them set lower or different (like Golden Ticket shows up as an alternative option I see).

I think Beer or AP mentioned that posters can select their display rank, so maybe the dossier is the always the highest rank achieved? I'm way to loving lazy but it would be interesting to pull all available post history and map behavior trends across time/backer ranks and the relationships (I guess only from quoting or tagging in posts) between posters. Wonder how much post history is available; do you know if they archive, delete or hide old posts?

Yeah, totally, if you were designing starcraft 3 the first thing you would do is simply start selling the three headed mega colossus unit for $20 and advertise its attack power and movement speed on your website next to some concept art. There's no possible way that this could interfere with the gameplay because you've not designed any of that yet!
