Man, just played a bit of that and yeah, that is a weird mode.

So I'm having a ton of fun with this game, I really dig the way it feels and the map design! Haven't cracked into the single player yet, but excited to check it out. I got my first battlepack drop after 4-5 hours and got a camo skin, which is weird. I love that they brought back the in game 'revive' icons, I love me some Medic.

Yeah, I mean I totally get the skepticism, their 3rd party track record has been hot garbage for years! I just want to throw it out there that I have literally 0 skin in the game outside of liking the premise of the console itself, I think the only Nintendo game I've ever actually finished was some of the SNES era Mario games and Duke Nukem for the n64. I bought a Wii that one time, and bought a 3DS at one point then sold it because I wasn't super interested in actually playing it. Oh god, I don't know if I like this or hate this. Think of how you are going to have to store like 10 disparate Switch controller halves hah.

I also think the pretty standarized control layout (2 sticks and some buttons, and a kind of d-pad) probably helps, but it sounds like the architecture is not going to do any favors in porting anything over. SBM you didn't get the memo, we should be 100% pessimistic about everything all of the time. I thought it was interesting to even feature 3rd party games in their initial annoucnement video, I would assumed they would have just shown 1st party nintendo and a handful of indies and been done with it.

Dang-it Clyde, I'm jonesing for some Battlefield now and won't be home for another 7 hours, boo.

Interesting, looking forward to trying some out tonight. I didn't hop into to the EA Access early trial did they change anything about the revive icon for medics? I remember it being a little hard to see from just the mini-map, did they add any aditional on-screen indicator since the beta?

That sounds like a neat system! I've been pretty set on not following anything about the game leading up to it, so excited to hop in and discover the surrounding mechanics of those kinds of systems. Excited to hear that about the maps, have you done any of the new modes? The operations mode sounds really cool in theory, kind of similar to Red Orchrestra 2's 'campaign' mode. Looking forward to cracing this open tonight.

So I mailed my mail-in vote ballot yesterday here in Illinois, man what a good way to do things. I was able to leisurely do research on each of the races and make actual informed decisions on most things.

Yeah, I wonder a lot about their account management and online stuff. Yeah, battery life is going to be a real make-or-break kind of thing; I am not sure if i could justify the purchase if I couldn't throw it in my bag and play it on my daily commute! So I really liked the idea of just being able to play a game on the Wii-U tablet and not have to use the TV. I actually bought an nvidia Shield tablet to stream my PC to so I wasn't stuck sitting at my PC in the office while my wife's in the living room. Having this functionality built in sounds perfect for that.

Oh man, that sounds amazing. I think it's pretty telling that you used a lot of third party games in the announcement (skyrim, nba, etc) which is interesting.

Yeah, that's how I always looked at it, they built in the mechanics to change it becaus ethey knew society/the country would change with time. Hard enough where we couldn't do it willy nilly but we would have the ability to do that. So how about that debate? That looked pretty rough for Trump. Also did anyone notice the jacked up white balance on Clinton's camera? Very odd.

I might have to join you in Battlefield shenanigans... Welp, GMG has it for $45 so I'm in.

Yeah I would grab that data and get a new drive, it sounds like something is failing.

Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin is $9.99 at Humble right now

Hey, totally fine. We'll be doing roll20 + discord. I'll shoot you a PM!

Alright, so what is everyone doing for Halloween? I'm working on my Stranger Things costume, done all the hard bits, I just have to assemble it now! https://goo.gl/cHJXmV

Sorry that would help, Thursdays 6pmish CDT

I have a spot in my Thursday 5E game if anyone is interested. We're going to be going through Storm King's Thunder and see where that takes us.

So playing through Shen's Last Gift and man, that is kind of hard.

Well after the pneumonia scare, I can understand why her staff would want to hoard them. I kid, I'm sorry. I hope the debates go well and she takes Trump to task, this election seems way too close currently.

So they are turning this into a movie which is, kind of cool?

Chicago leans extremely liberal but is probably one of the most segregated cities in America

I'm glad I keep a beard, I just buy a cheapo $20 beard trimmer every 5 or so year and trim my beard back down every 2 months or so or it starts looking a bit weird. I don't have the patience to get it passed the 2/3 month hump.

That is a Don Draper-esque pitch right there

Well, that was quick. http://www.cnn.com/2016/09/19/middleeast/syria-aid-convoys-attacked/index.html?adkey=bn Russia blows up an aid convoy
