The Jackhammer shotgun is awesome. Sadly it's the last shotgun tier... I am still annoyed as hell that they decided to spend more money on voice acting instead of adding more content to e.g. side characters like the Night Terror. Damn, so much potential... and it's wasted.

They won't invade german at least, as the video isn't available here due to GEMA.

Doesn't look very good imo. They try to create an epic battle, but the video is very mediocre when it comes to that. It works for Rome 2 and such, because of the small units, but this Warhammer now... nope. Besides, to me it looks like just a simple reskin of what we already have (except for the added magic effects). Other than that, I can see exactly the same ai pattern as ever before and this "we are still tweaking cavalry" ... lel. Best joke. Really, it's CA-- the combat will mostly stay exactly how it is right now. Everyone who expects huge changes in this area is far away from reality.

But there are tools that help you to merge stuff / create merge patches. Therefore, at least technically, you can run more than 255 mods.

I just noticed that I've apparently already bought ep4 a while ago... cool, totally forgot about that.

I think Gromnir is schizophrenic. Otherwise I cannot explain his writing style, which for the life of god I cannot read. PS: Yes the white colored post above is horrible to read too.

Did some Act of Aggression skirmish. Not bad so far- reminds me quite a lot of the old Command & Conquer. I am not much a fan of skirmish, though, so I'll hope the full release is not too far away...

Ah, a mine plow, yes. Now I just have to find more details on it. If possible even where all the screws are... /Edit: This thing on the photos seems to be a KMT-6 Mine Plow. Found some photos, but not yet the details I need.

I am currently reading The Martian by Andy Weir. So far I really like it. I am hooked up since I started it- should be done with it today or tomorrow at latest.

I wouldn't even know where to stash all this stuff. Especially since I was moving my home just a few months ago- it was hell. So many boxes, so much crap to carry. Really, I see buying digital games as a blessing nowadays. If I'd imagine I had boxes or just cd cases of all these games.... a nightmare.

Can anyone here tell me how exactly that thing in front of the Terminator is called? Also, would there be a chance to somewhere find blueprints of these? I am toying with the idea to create a 3d model of it for a game, but I have really no idea how the details are like.

Well, just to catch you up, Halo is a series centered around Master Chef. Master Chef is a phenomenal cook but he has a severe skin condition forcing him to always wear a full helmet to avoid contaminating the food he makes. There is an alien gang called the Covenant, I think they're from Mexico. Anyway, not only did these aliens come across the border illegally and are causing trouble for out law abiding citizens, they also don't much care for Master Chef's most excellent cuisine, causing our hero to have to take matters into his own hands and drive these illegal aliens back across the border. That explains a lot.

Never in my life did I've seen anything of Halo. I mean, really. Didn't even watched gameplay videos. At max some short snippets of a few seconds. This series never interested me at all, probably because it isn't for PC master race.

So you are telling me that something I think is great is not so great? What exactly are you trying to achieve here? I am pointing out that the distance view is *still* really bad. Well, if you like the blurry mess without any shadows and stuff, okay. Best seen on the Freeside sign in New Vegas... this thing looks ugly as hell if you are but three steps away from it (no animated lights, super tiny blurry texture instead). Or the waterjets at Hoover Dam, which don't have a LOD model, as you can't have anything animated in the LOD (and therefore most likely later got deleted in a patch.. it's horrible if the jets are popping up when you are like right in front of it). Skyrim had some nice looking distant mountains with the clouds and such, but that's about it. Everything on the ground is ugly as ever if you are one or two cells away (and this does NOT depend on your graphic settings. You influence the shaders and texture quality and such, but not the amount of cells that are loaded around you. That means, the bad LOD and blurry ground texture always appears at the same distance for everyone- if it's a few more trees or less doesn't really matter, imo).

The long view distance isn't that great. Just check out that screenshot with the Yao Guai- on the hill to the right you can already see a lack of shadow (and therefore most likely also a lack of environment animations and effects), exactly as it was in every other Gamebryo / Creation Engine game.

I hate to burst your bubble, but I googled Cuban woman rolling cigar and the first hit I got was... Well you don't know if she isn't still a virgin.

So that new Shadowrun game is coming out soon. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/webeharebrained/shadowrun-hong-kong/posts/1303417

I am wondering how much that game leak influenced the final sales. Me personally, from the screenshots and videos we had seen till that date, the game was pretty much not interesting at all. But then the leak appeard and BOOM suddenly everyone was talking about DX:HR and the hype became so big, because people suddenly noticed how much it plays like the original and that it is pretty cool.

Now I would love to read this.

Everyone is talking about white privilege, but I am sitting here wondering... How do I not offend anyone with my white privilege? That's a honest question, because I have no idea.

So, any interesting newsbits about his recent departure in that interview? Or at least what he is going to do next?

Anyone knows some good samurai sword / katana (action) movies? Western, japanese or chinese, doesn't really matter. I remember some old one I've seen years ago. Was about a dude who lost his sword and then pretended to have a sword.. so he fought everyone with his sword sheet only. Or there was a tv show (I think?) with a guy and a child. Wolf something-something. It probably was inspired by a comic or book with the same name. /edit: Just found the second one. It's called "Lone Wolf And Cub: Sword Of Vengeance" and from 1972.

Planescape: Torment is sexist coz you can't play a female. lel.

God damnit. It is summer and I got a cold... feel so weak and destroyed, it's really no fun. Can't remember if I ever got a cold in this time of the year...

How about playing Quake in Duke Nukem in Doom. I'll guess that would be something.
