I take it back, Totoro isn't like new coke, he's like Zima. Horrible when it launched, a running gag for 20 years, then lots of "oh god why??" when people hear rumors of it returning.

Hey, is it confirmed that swords are power weapons? It wouldn't make any sense, but would be v. cool, if they were kinetic/energy weapons instead. I could gently caress with a scout/pules+sword+fusion setup in PvE.

Execute the 5 hit combo animation to kill.
This combo will drain all your heavy.
This animation cannot be skipped and can be interrupted.

I remember hearing it a dev interview that swords will be power slot only.

SIGINT Waveforms content so we're not just forum sumo-ing each other to death over a G-rated movie, also because im gay:

Towards the end of Promethean Code mission, there's these flashing columns that you see in the in the Seraphim Vault through the control room's glass windows. They're not present in any other mission AFAIK, and the way they flash reminds me of the Dragon Valley/DICE LA Camo Morse Code puzzle from the Battlefield series.

Because goons are opinionated, I need some violently opinionated eyes on this video I took:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aCYoYWX5XJg

1) Does this look like Morse to the beholder? To me, it seems so, but...
2) I'm not sure it's "classic" morse, because it looks like the dits and dahs are based on luminous intensity, rather than a lamp shuttering on and off.

This open-source machine-vision morse interpreter I downloaded CURRENTLY only reads those "ON" or "OFF" states, but does accurately detect luma.
I feel like I can probably gently caress with it to make it interpret the video's luma differently:



The string of morse that you see listed there is a bad result, either because of the above case, or because I haven't configured it correctly.

zoom in until the entire sample field is just a bar? Does each column have the same pattern? Are they locked to each other?
Make like a graph where it shows brightness over time, that'd be interesting to look at and actually see the period etc.

People paid $$$ for those Kill-Tracker weapons in Counter Strike. Wonder if there will be any item trading!

Kill trackers were a big loving deal in TF2 too.

I can't imagine Bungie is going to fall down the hole of item trading, that's a can of worms they certainly aren't prepared to manage.

This is the plan, I'm also going to fiddle with the exposure and contrast levels until it's basically nothing but the flashes. The three columns are indeed synced, and consistent flash the same pattern, with no aberration between then as far as I have tested.

I don't actually know how to capture that brightness data effectively, if you don't mind expanding, other than raw-dumping the timestamps of those flashes like you see in the output window there into like excel or something

I am not good at spreadsheets tbh
