Hmm, I think we may have had some game cartridges for the old Vic20. If we didn't, then I do remember playing some side scrolling ninja game that was loaded off of a cassette (yes, audio cassette) onto our C64/128. If by PC we mean x86-based computing, Solitare, Minesweeper, Conquest, Scorched Earth, X-Wing, Tradewars 2002. The first game I actually bought though was probably Dungeon Keeper (or maybe Outpost 2).
I don't mind that I missed the coupon deal so much as...I could've sworn I saw the Sword of the Stars Ultimate Collection for $7.99 over the weekend.
If the brain "doesn't know kidney" does that mean it doesn't know that the heart-patients' deaths would make more kidneys available?
Why is the brain in the vat?
Yeah, I wasn't trying to say investing in minions gimps generals overall, just that Oak sending them away removes his power from the front lines.
[quote]This is mainly an Oak thing too, as I play a lot of minion build Erebus and I can't see nightwalkers being nearly as effective at this tactic.[/quote]Yeah, it is inherent in Oak's minions' flight. I have to wonder how much an Oak has to sacrifice in order to pull this off though. Having only played Oak in single-player mode, I have to say his minions seem to get chewed up at a fairly quick rate by towers (even if they replenish just as easily). In the game you mentioned, did you have a
Well, I am at work so couldn't actually watch the video; so I was not sure how obvious the specific parody was. Also, I am sure there are tons of people still out there unaware of The Onion, and on a rare occasion it can have very deadpan-serious delivery...much like the comments both of you posted. Not trying to insult anyone's intelligence; but with politics people throw some pretty wild stuff out there, so much so that the Onion can (on occasion) almost sound reasonable.
Wondering if the nature of the source is lost on some posters.
I think they actually noticed a decent amount before it went down, but wonder if they had already spent all there money from farming me and couldn't afford it. Ironically, when they got giants, my survivability went up as I was getting a decent amount of health from the priests I upgraded us to around the same time and using slam in the crowed chokepoint (w/ a Bloodstone Ring), and of course nearer the crystal. Also, not sure, but I don't think I saw TB all that much towards the end;
[quote]How does that work? Most maps have so many towers on them the minions would be dead before they got to the citadel. I guess I dont know crucible that well.[/quote]Oak's minions can fly, avoiding the chokepoints that allowed us to hold them off long enough for it to work. [quote]Yeah I'm pretty shocked that worked. If he kept his minions with him you'd probably have died a lot less.[/quote]Yeah, like I said in the OP, I am not sure if he did it from the start causing me to fee
[quote]Faking scientific data and failing to report commercial conflicts of interest are far more prevalent than previously thought, a study suggests. And around 46 per cent say that they have observed fellow scientists engage in “questionable practices”, such as presenting data selectively or changing the conclusions of a study in response to pressure from a funding source. However, when scientists were asked about their own behaviour only 2 per cent admitt
To clarify, we were the ones who won by using an Oak-minion-trickle.
Yeah, if their citadel had been improved, we would've lost.
So, I was playing a 2v2 Conquest game in pantheon on Crucible Friday night. It was Rook(me) & Oak vs UB&TB. I made quick work of capping the two non-xp flags at the beginning of the match, took down one of the first two towers, and then proceded to die...alot. I don't know if I was just sucking or the enemy was teaming up on me perfectly. It seemed I couldn't land a single hit between stuns and UB loaded so many ailments onto me I mostly died from damage over time. It quickly became a
I am pretty sure my video drivers are up to date, or nearly so, and the only mouse software I use is the Logitech Mouseware driver software. I played quite a bit of single-player "tournaments" (were talking sp favor in the tens of thousands) and one mp custom game before then, and have played more panth since then (even with the connection window up like when the problem originally occured), and that one time is the only time the problem ever occurred. The only thing I haven't tried to repro

I don't know if it has been mentioned before, it might've even been a freak occurence, but last night in my first pantheon game when the game started I could not see the mouse cursor. The game let me move once, from the starting location to halfway between then citadel and the item shop; on Cataract so, yeah, barely any movement. I was getting a weird drag-select looking box on my screen when moving the mouse sometimes. The cursor would appear if I went to the skill screen (though the 'K' key

[quote who="Shadow_Avenger" reply="19" id="2242570"]I think both are mostly fine, except spit could use a range reduction, maybe even make it a melee range skill instead.[/quote] Of course then you'd have to rename it "Drool".
[quote]I always heard it was the publishers fault for poor support. We will certainly see if that is the case, I hope it is not.[/quote] That's what I hear in most cases. I've even seen developers forbidden from releasing patches because publishers wouldn't allow an untested patch to be released and wouldn't budget the required in house testing. The only time you see developers getting around this is when the actual development company goes bust, allowing the most dedicated devs to r
[quote]The idea was to not give the opposing faction direct control of the hero[/quote] I think uberShade's point was that the dropper (assuming the drop was intentional) could always buy stuff for the team before leaving so why not automate that process. Pooling resources like that is a valid tactic without a person leaving.
[quote]3) Some teams don't have AoE and they greatly suffer despite doing great during the rest of the game.[/quote] Like I said in my first post, I am not real experienced with MP yet, but it seems to me that if an entire team lacks AoE, they've already lost.
