  1. Practical Problems is apparently Kinect mocap, which partially explains the stiffness of that one. Green and Purple seemed fine to me.
  2. People are getting really good at SFM really quickly.
  3. So I'm pretty sure I'm officially old, because the only thing from the Olympics I've watched is tennis, and I enjoyed it.
  4. I don't get why people don't get that they're just going to put in all the heroes as of their current state of the DotA 1 version. "How will they put in pit lord, bodies disappear too fast!" That said, the only way you can get techies in DotA 1 is to play AP, because he's locked out of CM and RD and SD, so just never play AP.
  5. He's looking for isometric, I think, in reference to most DotA-likes.
  6. Kerbal Space Program

    Jetpacks are for small babymans. (Shamelessly stolen from the SA KSP thread [http://forums.someth...hreadid=3485342] who are slowly becoming mad rocket scientists on a level I will never reach.) As for having nothing to do after you reach the Mun, it's only limited by how many kerbalian casualties you are willing to inflict for SCIENCE. (Yes that is a cherry picker for leftovers from failed launches left around your Kerbal.)
  7. Twig, I can never criticize a Rubick video because Rubick is simply the master of Grinchy Fun.
  8. QWER - Abilities Either Alt+QWER or ASDF - Items I personally use 1234 for items because I have pretty good reach with my fingers and I'm used to it, but Alt+QWER is usually more intuitive for people, and it saves you from having control groups on something weird like Shift and Control.
  9. I will never get a 4+ stun, or any multicast at all, yet I will always receive them. I've basically stopped playing anyone with anything that has a chance of doing less than optimal things.
  10. You're bad and you should feel bad! I might, might be a little annoyed after a couple shitty situations today that I should have escaped from but got killed on chance. I should just ragequit if anyone picks OM or CK.
  11. Windrunner could have canceled the powershot and it would have hit and killed you. When I say Juggernaut went the wrong way I mean he was off you for a good third/fourth of his spin. Those can be forgiven, Invoker cannot. Nah, just thought it was too much parenthetical text.
  12. There were at least three times where the enemy team basically let you live while across the river (where in the hell is the tornado/coldsnap/sunstrike/blast from invoker? you were definitely in snap range while you went down the ramp ), and that saddens me, because seeing Leshrac go unpunished for freely pushing towers is one of the most depressing things in DotA. Stop beating up on idiots, Twig. E: I just realized Windrunner could have canceled the Powershot as well, which would have alleviated the initial mistarget.
  13. Have they rescinded the idiotic decision to put auto-aim in a PC game, or at least given an option to turn it off? More importantly, is there any semblance of matchmaking now?
  14. Crusader K+ngs II

    While they're rarely in a single stack, late game armies get upwards of 150K. They're not usually together because of attrition.
  15. Jungling in DotA is a whole different bag, I'm afraid. That said, look into N'aix to start with, as he's very similar to Warwicks fire and forget jungling method. Not to mention an absolute monster if he gets built. I'd recommend Dark Seer but his easy jungling method (smoke) was completely destroyed by the last patch.
  16. The Less-Idle Thumbs: A Fitocracy Group

    That'd work fantastically on SA, but we're a lot less formal over here. That said, now that I can work out again, I probably should. I'll look into it. I think I even have that press somewhere around here. E: Oh god, levels. I might be in trouble.
  17. Movie/TV recommendations

    The Prestige ending would be a cop-out if it didn't so perfectly encapsulate the idea of the movie.
  18. The Less-Idle Thumbs: A Fitocracy Group

    So you're an adbot who has harvested a human to wear their skin and post pictures of it on the internet? (Seriously, less formality/sounding like a script.)
  19. Roguelikes

    Nethack is pretty much the roguelike these days, considering their progenitors are less played. It's also great because some people have played it for a decade or more without ever winning. I keep meaning to try a Moria clone, but I haven't gotten around to it. E: THE AI HAS GONE ROUGE
  20. Roguelikes

    I finally ascended a Nethack character last year after almost a year of playing it. A wizard, and I love that little son of a bitch. Nearly lost him on d12 to an angry pack of orc priests, (reading unid'd scrolls can be a very bad idea) but in the end I got him down and out in about 17,500-ish turns. Haven't gone back since, but I know I will soon enough. Trying to make my way through ADOM right now which is a bitch and a half but I'll get it eventually. FTL is a great game, but the developers are a pair of manchildren and refuse to add a save feature because they feel it "comprises their games ideal". No, you idiots, it's bad game design. Especially for a roguelike. That said, most games of FTL probably won't last more than an hour so it's still a good pickup whenever it comes out. Tilesets are for babies.
  21. DotA 2 Key

    If I run into a DotA 2 invite I'll let you know, provided you stick around and get comfortable.
  22. DotA 2 Key

    Maybe ask in the DotA 2 thread? Trade for it or sign up properly.
  23. Warthumb: European Escalation

    I played a bunch with SA people before launch but since they reset and I kind of stopped playing I haven't played since. I'll work on the unlocking sometime this week.
