I'm looking for a list of any item, move, ability, etc. that would modify the standard type advantages in Pokémon up to and including ORAS for Nintendo 3DS.

For example:
Typically, Bronzong (Steel and Psychic type) would be weak to Ground type attacks since Ground is super effective against Steel, and Psychic is neither weak or strong to Ground. However, if Bronzong has the Levitate ability, he becomes completely immune to all Ground attacks.

If the opposing Pokémon uses the move Smack Down, however, this allows Bronzong to be hit by Ground-type moves again.

I'm working on a personal project to create an applet to calculate many things Pokémon, including potential type advantages in many different situations.

Can anyone enumerate these for me?

Handlocks seem to be in favor currently, at least I'm encountering them far more often than I used to. But I still don't have a good idea on how to actually play against them effectively.

In the game I just played I was rather close to being able to burst the Handlock down in one turn. A turn later he had three molten giants out, two of them taunted. I obviously lost that game.

I have tried to play around molten giants in the past, that didn't work out all that well either. The opponent simply tapped again, and was then able to play the molten giant. At best I could delay it one turn.

I'm currently playing Shaman, but I'm interested in general rules for all classes against Handlock. What are the general strategies against Handlock? When should I play around the molten giants and avoid hitting the enemy hero, and when should I go for direct damage?

texts:
Is the only way to increase morale for players to constantly feed them the ball (at least for offense) and to do well, hoping you get the chance to praise them?

My star RB has been stuck at incredibly low morale ever since I was hired to the team. This means he performs incredibly poorly and it's nearly impossible to both do well and utilize him very much.

Essentially I'm ending up in a vicious cycle of running the ball poorly game after game due to his poor morale, but I can't get his morale up because the run game is terrible and I can't seem to make anything happen (doesn't help that he's a low-ranked player, but still better than a non-star RB).

Am I just kinda SOL until the draft? I don't have the credits to sign a free agent because, naturally I'm playing so poorly.

This question applies to other positions as well, especially defense, where you have absolutely no control over any of the players whatsoever.

texts: How exactly does the Gyrocopters Flak Cannon work?

texts:
I recently used the Gyrocopter for the first time and I must say, he was an extremely fun play.

His Flak Cannon ability seemed to work great for farming, allowing my basic attacks to target everything around me in an 800 range aoe. (works nice in team fights too)

I soon noticed however, that if I activated my Rocket Barrage skill with Flak Cannon up, the Rockets seemed to ALSO target everything in the 800 aoe. This leads to my question, what exactly does the Flak Cannon apply to? The two guides sported at playdota.com don't specify, so I'm asking here.

Does Flak Cannon apply only to my basic attack? (was I wrong with my impression that it upgrades Rocket Barrage as well?) Or does it apply to other skills, if so which ones and how exactly?

texts: Can I use the Xbox 360 Headset for game sounds instead of voice chat?

texts:
I recently picked up a cheap-o Xbox 360 wired headset (one that plugs into the wireless XBox 360 controller I use).  I'm not an Xbox Live Gold member, and so I don't need chat features or anything - mostly what I'm looking for is to be able to hear the game's audio with the volume on my TV turned down.  However, the headset doesn't seem to emit any of the game sounds. So far I've only tried it with Fable II.

Is this a result of my stinginess?  If I pick up a better headset will I be able to use it to listen to the game sounds?  Or is this somehow related to the game - do only some games send game audio to the controller? Or am I crazy to think that I'll be able to hear game audio through a headset connected to my XBox 360 wireless controller?

Any help or advice appreciated!

texts: Why does Jigglypuff get KO'd if her shield breaks?

texts:
AFAIK, in SSB64 Jigglypuff never had this sort of "feature". When her shield broke, she got put into a stun animation. It seems like that from Brawl? onwards, this addition of her instantly rocketing to the stars once her shield broke became a thing.

Obviously, I figure there has to be a reason why this was added. I was weighing a few options in my mind but couldn't figure it out.  I'm not heavily versed in Pokemon lore so there's no obvious lore reasons that come to mind why this would be a thing.  Balance-wise wouldn't make sense, considering Jigglypuff has been consistently ranked pretty low in terms of power, considering she's the 2nd lightest character in the game, and gets KO'd at ridiculously low percentages. Pichu is an example of an extremely light character but doesn't instantly get KO'd if their shield breaks. In fact, Jigglypuff seems to be the only character with this.

So why is this a thing? Why does Jigglypuff instantly get KO'd when her shield breaks?

texts: Broken pipes with Minecraft multiplayer servers

texts:
Okay, so I've looked over a ton of sites for the same issue I'm having, and the only solution I've found to my error was sticking with 1.7.x.

Basically, about 40 percent of the time when I connect to servers it will give me one of three errors:

Connection lost: timed out.
Connection lost: disconnected.
Connection lost: Error while write (...) Broken pipe.

It's not like I can just connect again to the server afterwards: I have to restart Minecraft to connect.
Also, I can usually connect to main lobbies of servers, but when I click on a minigame it'll give me the error.

I'm using Oracle Java 8 on Ubuntu 15.10, but I've also tried using OpenJDK 7 and 8. I had long suspected my connection was at fault, but I don't have the same issue with my two computers with Debian7.

Does anyone have any ideas on what could be wrong or how to fix this?


texts: Is it possible to be temporarily blacklisted from rooms/hosting in multiplayer Modern Warfare 2?

texts:
Sometimes late at night when the rooms are nowhere near full, I find that I am host in TDM games.  In cases where the next map is Wasteland, I tend to exit and look for a new game and almost invariably, I get the exact same set of players and a new map, usually not Wasteland within a second.  However, if I do this more than twice, I find myself not being able to join a room for short periods of time.  At first I thought it was because the room randomly filled up or got merged, but then I noticed that the same players trickled into whatever room I was next placed in, which led me to the conclusion that I might have been blocked from rejoining that room for a short period of time because I kept leaving as host.  Also, I find that when that happens, I am almost always not host for the next match, even with the exact same set of players.

Does this mean that I get marked as a bad host or is it just an 'intricacy' of the IW matchmaking algorithm?

EDIT: I'm playing on PC

texts: Would somebody be able to create a list of map waypoints in Grand Theft Auto V?

texts:
I'm totally blind, and have previously loved playing all of the games in the GTA series; whilst missions arn't playable, cheats make the game a much more interesting experience, and the First Person View in GTA V makes the game even more playable due to wider use of stereo positioning with audio output.

I realise that this is a big ask, but I was wondering if somebody would be able to put together a list of map waypoints for me (the map screen when you press start and then select the map option which is the first that immediately has focus in the pause menu). This would be for easier navigation when calling a taxi - rather than having to constantly select a waypoint, get in the taxi and then confirm - which gets my character to verbally announce the location that was previously selected, I could then know for a fact which waypoint was selected. I realise that several PoIs also have what I call sub-PoIS (where you can use the left/right cursors to also select a location within that location) - it'd be amazing if I could also have these, if at all possible.

Thank you - I realise that this is a big ask

texts: Why does my framerate slowly decay while playing Skyrim?

texts:
This is a new issue that popped up recently and I have no idea what brought it on.

As I play Skyrim, my FPS will slowly degrade over 15 minutes or so to unplayable levels, but only in certain areas, upon leaving areas with low framerate, my FPS will jump back up again, but returning to the area with bad framerate, results in continued decay.

For example, if I wait in a bad area for about 15 minutes my framerate will fall to about 18. If I return to that area, it will go back to 18. If I enter a different bad area, it will also be at 18 there too. If it continues to fall in that bad area to say, 8 frames/second, and I go to another bad area, the frame rate will jump back down to 8 again.

I have no idea why this is happening. I have tried the lowest possible graphics settings, removing all mods, and reinstalling Skyrim.

I don't believe this is a hardware issue, as everything appears stable in every benchmark, and diagnostic I have run. This issue is isolated to Skyrim. I have tried all advice given to me on installing mods, editing my ini's, and cleaning my mods to no avail.

If anyone has any idea, please help me, as I don't want to have to reinstall the whole OS to eliminate my problem.

texts: Do you need to trade Boldore to reduce the candy requirement for evolution to zero?

texts: In the original Pokemon games, there were several Pokemon that required a trade to evolve. Examples are Machoke (to Machamp), Haunter (to Gengar) or Boldore (to Gigalith). Niantic mimicked this behaviour by reducing the candy cost to zero to evolve certain Pokemon to their final evolution. In the original games, it requried you to trade Boldore. Trading Roggenrola (the first in the evolution line) would not evolve anything. How does this work in Pokemon Go, and which Pokemon are affected?

As a little experiment, I invested all of Franklin's money on the LCN in one company: Maze Bank. I then sent him to sleep over and over for a week (game time), checking his portfolio every time he woke up to see how the stock was doing. What I saw baffled me.

The stock fluctuated 1 or 2% for the whole week. I bought it at around $14.60 and it stayed within roughly a dollar of that figure the entire week.

The Graph
Firstly, the graph apparently reflects this past week, but it seems to say that the stock spent time at $70 a share, and was now resting at $56. In fact, according to the graph, it had only once dipped below $26 the entire week... Nowhere near the $14.60 figure I usually saw.

How am I reading the graph wrong?

Stock Information
On the right-hand side, the "Stock Information" seemed equally confusing. The "High" and "Low" seem to refer to the highest and lowest the stock had EVER been. (It certainly didn't reflect the week's fluctuations.)

"Last" (and thus "Change"/"% Change") didn't seem to reflect any price I saw over the period of a week, either. (Does anyone know what time frame the "Last" figure comes from?)

And that's only the LCN. Does the BAWSAQ have more accurate graphs/figures?

On the whole, all these graphs and figures seemed very confusing. Can anyone help make sense of them?

texts: As Ember Spirit, is there a trick to reliably casting Chains during a single-target Sleight?

texts:
Casting Searing Chains while in Sleight of Fist's animation is a really useful technique to almost instantly chain enemies from a safe distance. Here's Miracle- demonstrating on Slark, at 6:18:

I can do it when Sleight hits 2+ targets, just by flicking WQ.  I get it every time, because the animation is long enough.

However, when Sleight hits only 1 target like in that video, Sleight's animation is crazy fast, and I'm finding it really difficult to consistently trigger Chains during it.  Even if I bring my middle- and ring-fingers down at almost the same time to QW, I still usually whiff it!

I've already tried Shift-queueing Chains after Slight, but that totally fails, because Chains only triggers once Sleight ends.

Something tells me there's a trick to this, because I see skilled players hit it so consistently.  If the trick is "play Ember constantly for 6 to 8 weeks", that's OK too.  But before I start on that, is there something I'm missing?


texts: Why is the Brotherhood of Steel attacking me?

texts:
Going down the independent questline. I killed Caesar when Benny fled to the Fort, and Mr House shortly after returning to New Vegas.

Unfortunately they seem to be attacking me if I fast travel to Hidden Valley with five or six paladins. I've loaded a save before fast travelling to them but now I need to figure out why, and how I can fix it. They like me, because I've complete The Lonesome Road and picked to avert the missile launch entirely. Help?

Note: I've completed ED-E My Love in favor of the Followers at this point and he's in my party, could that be why?

I saw Bad Company 2 used at a game store, and I was thinking of picking it up.

In general, are there be any issues to be aware of for playing online if the copy is used, which would discourage one from buying a used copy with the intent to play online? One concern I have is that the previous owner may still have the CD-key, and be able to play online without the install disks, which could interfere with my playing online. Thank you.


texts:
I finally finished Dragon Quest VIII last night. One question I have though is about right at the end.

What is the significance of this glowing stone? Is it related to the post-game adventure?

texts: Why won't attribute modifiers add up on my armor?

texts:
I am trying to make a new set of armor called the Fullerite armor. It has its own custom resource but it is made of gold. I'm trying to modify the gold to have more protection than diamond. It also is going to give you more health. This is the command I am using:

Helmet:

/give @p golden_helmet 1 1 {display:{Name:"Fullerite Helmet"},AttributeModifiers:[{AttributeName:"generic.maxHealth",Name:"generic.maxHealth",Amount:2,Operation:0,UUIDMost:61127,UUIDLeast:23056},{AttributeName:"generic.armor",Name:"generic.armor",Amount:3,Operation:1,UUIDMost:88181,UUIDLeast:199509},{AttributeName:"generic.armorToughness",Name:"generic.armorToughness",Amount:2,Operation:1,UUIDMost:17664,UUIDLeast:119384}],Unbreakable:1,ench:[{id:0,lvl:4}],HideFlags:2}

Chestplate:

/give @p golden_chestplate 1 1 {display:{Name:"Fullerite Chestplate"},AttributeModifiers:[{AttributeName:"generic.maxHealth",Name:"generic.maxHealth",Amount:2,Operation:0,UUIDMost:61127,UUIDLeast:23056},{AttributeName:"generic.armor",Name:"generic.armor",Amount:8,Operation:1,UUIDMost:88181,UUIDLeast:199509},{AttributeName:"generic.armorToughness",Name:"generic.armorToughness",Amount:2,Operation:1,UUIDMost:17664,UUIDLeast:119384}],Unbreakable:1,ench:[{id:0,lvl:4}],HideFlags:2}

Leggings:

/give @p golden_leggings 1 1 {display:{Name:"Fullerite Leggings"},AttributeModifiers:[{AttributeName:"generic.maxHealth",Name:"generic.maxHealth",Amount:2,Operation:0,UUIDMost:61127,UUIDLeast:23056},{AttributeName:"generic.armor",Name:"generic.armor",Amount:6,Operation:0,UUIDMost:88181,UUIDLeast:199509},{AttributeName:"generic.armorToughness",Name:"generic.armorToughness",Amount:2,Operation:0,UUIDMost:17664,UUIDLeast:119384}],Unbreakable:1,ench:[{id:0,lvl:4}],HideFlags:2}

Boots:

/give @p golden_boots 1 1 {display:{Name:"Fullerite Boots"},AttributeModifiers:[{AttributeName:"generic.maxHealth",Name:"generic.maxHealth",Amount:2,Operation:0,UUIDMost:61127,UUIDLeast:23056},{AttributeName:"generic.armor",Name:"generic.armor",Amount:3,Operation:0,UUIDMost:88181,UUIDLeast:199509},{AttributeName:"generic.armorToughness",Name:"generic.armorToughness",Amount:2,Operation:0,UUIDMost:17664,UUIDLeast:119384}],Unbreakable:1,ench:[{id:0,lvl:4}],HideFlags:2}

When I put this on, it works just fine, but when I put another piece of armor on it doesn't add any armor points or it replaces the armor points it already had. Same for the extra health. I am playing in 1.9.2. Anyone know why they won't add up and they only work when worn separately?


texts: Why/How did Ted Faro have 'Omega' clearance?

texts:
Towards the end of the game, it's revealed that Ted Faro possesses a security clearance level ("Omega", which seems to elicit surprise from at least some team members) that exceeds those of other 'Alpha' team members and presumably even Elisabet's 'Alpha Prime' clearance.  He exploits this to

   seal the remaining 'Alpha' members in a room, block their system access, murder them by venting the atmosphere, and delete APOLLO.

My question is, how did he get this elevated clearance level? Elisabet appears to despise him and certainly seems far too intelligent to deliberately trust him with any such thing.  She basically

   blackmails him into funding Zero Dawn and handing her complete control over the project.

So where did his access level come from?  Did Elisabet set it up for him?  One of the other team members?

Is there a text or audio datapoint that explains how Ted Faro ended up with so much power within the Zero Dawn project?

texts: How do I get my ship to reach the Michelangelo?

texts:
Decided to fire up a game from my wall of shame: Nexus: the Jupiter Incident.

From a walkthrough:

  Eventually, the dispatcher from the Michelangelo will tell you to
  approach the designated navigation point, and suddenly the "Approach"
  button on the command  panel will no longer be greyed out. Select the
  Stiletto by clicking on it, and  then right-click NAV MICHELANGELO in
  the NPC Fleet list to move toward it. When you reach it, you'll get a
  message confirming the completion of the  action and a cutscene will
  begin. The Sunflower's fighters will contact you so  that they can
  also tell you that the Sunflower's minefield is active.

OK, so I click on the station, then right click on it to get my ship moving toward it. Ship starts moving. Several minutes later I get a message about the minefield being active. Ship is still moving. Several minutes later, ship is still moving. Tried navigating to something else, that worked fine. But if I try to navigate to the station again it just circles and circles.

It won't reach the nav point.

edit: I right-clicked on the station, confirmed ship was moving and set a timer for 5 minutes. When the timer elapsed, the ship was still moving. This has to be a bug.


texts: How do I dodge the second boss's attack?

texts:
The second boss

   has an attack in which it spits out blobs at you. I don't know how to dodge this attack.

I've tried flying over it by pressing up, ramming into it by holding the action button, hitting the panel that spawns in front of it, and just running into it without pressing anything. No matter what, I take damage. How do I deal with this?

Here is a screenshot of what I'm having trouble with (boss spoilers, of course):

Can I upgrade these runes?
Otherwise, I'll probably just sell them off.


texts: What are the enmity modifiers for Unleash and Abyssal Drain, post-Stormblood?

texts:
With the release of Stormblood, the potencies and enmity modifiers for a Dark Knight's Unleash and Abyssal Drain were modified.

Unleash has the effect:

  Deals unaspected damage with a potency of 50 to all nearby enemies.
  Additional Effect: Increased enmity

Abyssal Drain says the following:

  Deals unaspected damage with a potency of 120 to target and all enemies nearby it.
  Additional Effect: Increased enmity

But what is the difference in "increased enmity" between the two abilities?

From a pure damage perspective, Abyssal Drain seems to be the better choice, but from a pure threat perspective, which is more powerful for generating enmity?


texts:
I just finished a game of Awesomenauts where I was playing as Voltar. The enemy team had an Ayla who killed me at least 9 or 10 times with her Rage ability.

I don't know what kind of build the enemy player was using, but as soon as they saw me on screen, they'd activate Rage, float up to me, and drain my health dry. The enemy player could move faster than I could so there was no way for me to get away.

I only have around 10 online matches under my belt so I may not have a complete grasp of the game mechanics. (I had to read through the Awesomenauts wiki to even figure out what this infuriating ability/character that kept killing me was called.) What am I doing wrong? How can I counter this sort of play?

texts: Which Smash Ultimate characters have additional moves?

texts:
For a while, I thought that every character in Smash Ultimate had precisely the same set of attacks and specials, just different specifics about what those moves did. In other words, I thought this was an exhaustive list of attacks and specials regardless of character:

1 or 2 jab attacks
3 "tilt" attacks, Up/Side/Down
3 "smash" attacks, Up/Side/Down
1 "dash" attack
5 "air" attacks, Up/Forward/Backward/Down/Neutral
4 "special" moves, Up/Side/Down/Neutral

Sometimes those moves would behave differently in situations, but I thought there would always be the same number; for example, when Inkling has no ink, their Neutral and Down special moves are replaced with another move that recovers ink. However, I've recently discovered that the ink-recovery move is actually available at other times as well; it is accessed with Shield+Special while on the ground. I had never previously known that Shield+Special could ever access a move that wasn't in the typical set of 4 specials.

Do any other characters have a "Shield+Special" move which is distinct from their other specials? Or are there any other button combinations which result in an extra attack or special move? Note that this isn't about different results from the same button presses, such as Ganondorf having different "air" down+special and "ground" down+special, only moves which require an actual different combination of inputs.


texts: Why does Link take so little damage from a Bomb Impact Launch (windbomb)

texts:
I have recently learned how to BIL (windbomb), but was wondering why even when you fail you take so little damage.

While a normal bomb, from what I remember, is closer to 4 - 5 ❤.
Why is exploding in a BIL so relatively harmless compared to normal explosions? Does it have to deal with Bullet Time like so many other glitches?


texts: Do Wii Virtual Console games not honor the system mono/stereo setting?

texts:
My main TV is an old and busted CRT with one nonfunctional speaker. Obviously, I have the Wii set to Mono sound.

However, when playing Super Mario World on the Wii via Virtual Console, I'm still missing one stereo channel. It's very obvious that this is the problem; stereo sound effects for things like pipe travel and the end-of-level iris  are simply half missing, and some harmony and melody lines in some of the music are gone as well.

It seems as though the Virtual Console doesn't respect your Wii sound setting. I can find no references to this problem on the entire web (presumably because most modern gamers aren't troglodytes with busted TVs).

Can anyone confirm this problem? Is there a solution?


texts: What will I miss if I catch up on Metal Gear Solid now?

texts:
I have grown up watching my older brother play all of the Metal Gear Solid games, but with the release of the fifth game, I figured it's better late than never to experience the fantastic series myself from the beginning.

This question already addresses which games I should play to catch up, but I'm concerned about anything I may miss because many of these games are old now. Is there any content or advantages I miss out on for being late to the party (such as multiplayer or exclusive pre-order content)?

Please include Metal Gear Solid V as I can imagine it would take quite a while to get current, especially at the leisurely pace I plan to tackle the series at.

texts: Do shots fired before the match starts count towards your end-of-game statistics?

texts:
In Overwatch, there is short countdown for a few minutes before the match begins. During this time, the defending team is allowed to roam the map to set up their defenses, while the attacking team sits in a small lobby until the game starts and the doors open. (Or in KotH-type maps, both teams wait in a lobby.)

While players wait, it's not uncommon for them to fire off random shots, especially since a lot of the environment is destructable (it's entertaining to watch plush onions sail through the air in the arcade).

Do shots fired before the match starts count towards accuracy statistics at the end of the game?


texts: Low-tier battles with high-tier players?

texts:
My biggest shock in transition from Grille to Hummel was not in the vehicle. Sure, better traversals, higher damage, better travel times, but these were all just small quantitative changes.

The greatest shock was the change in gameplay culture in higher tier battles. Teamwork. Caution. Tactics. Sense of responsibility for safety of teammates. Specialization. I won't forget a scout I asked to hide, lying in wait patiently for good five minutes while I was busy supporting the team of heavies opposing a massive assault at a choke point. Once the heat was off, "Scout, go!" and we mopped up the rest of enemy stragglers. That was so completely unlike the suicidal maniacs rushing the enemy front lines and dying before artillery and snipers can ever get in position, so common in lower tiers.

Still, I have some lower-tier tanks (like my still favorite Pz.Sfl. IVb) I very much like for their handling and features, but as I join their low-tier battles, my blood pressure rises when I watch the gameplay style of my team. I'd love to play it with good, experienced players playing in tanks of the same tier.

I know I could join a platoon of a higher tier, but then the gun of my tank will be equivalent of pea shot on enemy armor. My poor-tier vehicle would be a hindrance to my high-level team. That's not entirely my idea of fun.

What are my other options to play low-tier matches in low-tier vehicles, but with experienced players?

Also, once I get the achievement for putting 100 into a gate, does that count towards the achievement for 500, meaning that I only have to put in 400 more for that achievement?  And so on?

Each day that I play the game, I end up running into a handful of new weapons. There are a lot of weapons.

Can someone produce a list of all of the weapons in the game? Would be excellent if it sourced the ones that are references, but that's not as necessary.


texts: Don't know why there are Total Freight Orders

texts:
Every factories making their freight and sent it to commercial buildings.

But it is more effective when there is trade depots. Factories can send more freights and faster.

You can check the freight orders(commercial buildings order freights)at your city status bar.

But I don't understand why commercial buildings order freights.

It still fine if there are no industrial buildings.

Of course, industrial buildings create many jobs but nothing to do with commercial buildings.

Leak of Total Freight Orders demands industrial zones, and it is annoying.

Is there any reason for this?


texts:
When I first started playing with Pokemon'Amie, my Froakie just absolutely loved getting his tummy rubbed.

But now when I go in to play with him, he frowns at me when I administer the belly rubs.

In general, where should I be rubbing my frog to increase his affection? Is it the same for each Pokémon species, or does each individual 'mon have a special spot they like rubbed?


texts: What happens if I romance Kaidan as a male Shepard in ME1 by editing save file and import the save file to ME2 and ME3?

texts: As said in the title, I want to romance Kaidan in the first game. Since it isn't possible in a normal play, I'm afraid the save file may get corrupted so I can't play my old Shepard if I import it into ME2 and ME3; or it can be imported but their relationship is gone. Maybe Bioware didn't prepare the lines for such scenario and they say something strange when they reunite. If any of these situations happen, I think I would consider delaying the romance until the third game.

texts: Does the Men of Science event have unstated effects?

texts:
I'm playing my first game as the Ottomans and have received the Men of Science event several times. To summarize, our ministers want to offer gold to foreign scientists to entice them to move here so we don't fall behind in technology. You are presented with two options:

Yes, bring them here: lose 25 Piety.
No, we don't need them: gain 25 Piety.

It lists no other effects. Does accepting their help give you a boost to technology that isn't listed here? I see no reason to take a 25 point hit to Piety without a payoff. What is the point of this event?

texts: Is Braid on PS3/PC different in any way? Is there a definitive choice?

texts:
I'm one of the few poor souls who hasn't played Braid yet. I don't have an Xbox so my choices are PS3 or PC. The game came out on both platforms a little while after the xbox version, so I was wondering if the content on all three is the same.

Are there extra levels or anything in the PS3 or PC versions? Are the graphics different/higher resolution on PC? Any other notable differences?

Also, (this part of the question is more subjective) I don't have a game pad for the PC, so it'd be played on my keyboard. Does it play ok like this or is this enough of a reason to go with the PS3 version?


texts: What are the second effects of weapon enchantments?

texts:
By enchanting a weapon with an elementary damage, around every 3 seconds this effect will deal additional second.

But there are also secondary enchantment effects. For example the fire damage weapon enchantment also places a small DoT on the enemy, which ticks for a few seconds. A desease enchantment also decreases the healing the afflicted enemy receives, but I'm not sure on the exact percantage reduced.

Is there a known table of the secondary effects of the weapon enchantments?


texts:
When playing the match, sometimes when I'm running from spawn to the fight I can't see my teammates' names, but I can see a little downwarrow that hovers over their names. Sometimes it is blue, but sometimes it flashes orange, then they die, or it just returns to being blue, and sometimes it switches so quickly I'm not sure what it means.

What does it mean for the down arrow above player's heads when it turns orange or blue? Is it an indicator for their health bar or something else?

texts: Playing Super Smash Bros 4 online in Latin America

I tried to play ssb4 online but there is too much input delay and sometimes lag in the matches. I really want to play online because it is the best way I have to practice but when I try it is like a totally diferent game in comparison to playing with a friend in the same room.

I want to know if in North America it is a similar situation. Maybe the delay and lag is produced because I live too far away from the servers. Do exist a method to reduce this delay/lag to make the game more playable?


texts: What's the point of the "Metal Gear" tank in Metal Gear Solid?

texts:
By that, I mean what are the advantages of a Bipedal, Silo-less nuclear tank.

The Metal Gear wiki states that it's purpose is to "destabilize the global balance of power via the threat of covert long-range nuclear attack" and to "connect infantry with artillery, making it invulnerable to firepower shortages and terrain"

The problem is that mobile, bipedal tanks aren't covert at all, are vulnerable to artillery, and are designed to launch nukes, which doesn't address ammunition shortages.

texts: Skipped the first dragon encounter - now what?

texts:
I wanted to help Gerud in Riverwood who asked me to warn the Jarl of Whiterun about the dragon attack, so when I get there I warn him and he immediately sends me off to get the dragonstone.

So I go on kicking ass until I get to the last guy who is in a tomb in front of the first dragon word of power. Thing is that he also has dragon power and kills me in an instant. After I saw that the first dragon encounter is before that (so I can get a dragon soul and activate my first word of power having the chance of killing the bastard) I get back to Whiterun to see if I can still access the first dragon encounter but I'm failing miserably. Can someone help me with this?


texts: How long does life support last indoors?

I read up on the milestones regarding surviving X sols on extreme weather planets and am aware that you are able to stand in a building, safe from the extreme external conditions while you twiddle your thumbs waiting for the milestones to hit.

Does anyone know an estimate for how long the life support module lasts in a regulated environment and how much each upgrade would affect this time?

texts: Is going slow more efficient than going fast?

texts:
So I know that the emergency engine power (F) is less efficient than regular travel, i.e. it requires more fuel per distance traveled. Turning on the headlight also requires more fuel than having it off.

However, I can't tell whether or not going at speed 1 is more fuel-efficient than speed 2. For a given distance, speed 2 means fewer supplies used and less terror accrued, but what about fuel? Does it use more fuel or the same?


texts: Are Endermen afraid of certain enchantments?

texts:
I'm trying to play a round of EnderBall with some friends (you become the ball and try to shoot yourself into 'buckets'), but I'm having a devil of a time getting any Ender pearls. I'm finding Endermen, but as soon as I attack them, they either teleport away and don't come back, or don't drop anything when I kill them.

I've been using a diamond sword with knockback, looting and sharpness, as well as another one with just fire aspect. Also tried using an iron sword, which just has sharpness. The thing is, once in a while I do manage to get one, but only after killing dozens of them.

Are there certain enchantments that cause Endermen to decide not to engage? Does looting not up your chances of them dropping an Ender pearl? I've tried using swords that aren't enchanted, but encountering Endermen is somewhat sporadic and difficult to test if it's just random behavior or the enchantments.

Behavior seems consistent with or without mods loaded, but again - hard to tell because they aren't as likely to spawn as others. I seem to remember them both dropping and engaging much more frequently, prior to managing to get better stuff.

texts: How to upgrade Mount and Blade Warband, Non-Steam

texts:
I used to play mount and blade quite a lot and got back into playing it recently. I'm looking to download some mods and quite a few of the newer ones require version 1.154 whilst I noticed mine was at 1.151. I downloaded the 1.154 patch from here but it says its a patch for the napoleonic wars on the actual patch link and installer.

The problem is I got my version on gamersgate, my brother got his on steam and his upgraded to 1.154 automatically. I installed the above patch but it stayed at 1.151 so I don't know what to do. Do I have to upgrade patches one step at a time? Like 1.152 then 1.153 etc.?

Any help would be great thanks!

EDIT: The 1.153 patch from the same site above works fine so I'm at 1.153 now, just need that last push!!!

FINAL EDIT: It seems that 1.154 is the same as 1.153 once the mods don't use anything from the multiplayer add-on. Also A Clash of Kings mod is amazing!


texts: Does Sony remove games from the PSN Store?

texts:
I just bought the french edition of "Tactics Ogre: Let Us Cling Together". I came with a promotion code for a 50% discount on "Vagrant Story" on the PSN. I did enter the code, and it was accepted saying I'll have a 50% discount on the game.

But when I tried to buy the game, I was unable to find it. It was released on the french PSN on december 2009, so it should be present somewhere, but it does appear to have vanished.

It can be found on the PSN website when doing a search, but it does not appear in the listing by genre.

So does Sony remove some of the game from the PSN ? And why ? I wanted to buy it, and I don't think that shrinking their catalogue is in their interest.

Edit: I would be interested in having a general answer to whether or not Sony pull game from PSN whatever the region. And if yes, what you think are their reasons.

Did I do it wrong?
Or am I missing something?

I'm on the PS3.
Will this also happen on my Xbox 360 Version?


texts: How can I keep an eye on my "absorb shield" hp in combat?

texts:
Diablo 3 has a lot of ways to get an "absorb shield," such as Galvanizing Ward and Molten Wildebeest's Gizzardy. I've experimented with stacking these and I generally like the results.

However, I find that it's really hard to tell when how much "shield hp" I have left during a hectic battle. When I'm not fighting, it's easy to mouse over the health orb to see my shield count. And I can sometimes recognize that I'm getting hit because "Absorbed!" pops up over my character. But both of these are much harder to keep track of than the big obvious way the health orb drains when you get hit for real-hp damage.

(And this is a problem because I'm usually in a lot of trouble by the time enemies are hitting my real hp — typically two or three hits away from death.)

Is there some GUI element or game setting I can use to better keep an eye on my remaining "absorb shield" hp so I know when my shields are low, before they drop completely?


texts: Why doesn't Barry shoot his shotgun sometimes?

texts:
I noticed something different in Jetpack Joyride. Until now, when you were riding the Bad as hog, Barry would shoot his shotgun at scientists (complete with a one-handed Terminator-style swing reload), but now it seems he just runs over them.

Was this an intended change implemented in a recent update oris it an issue only I experience? Was the game censored or something?


texts:

  I am sorry but you do not have permission to perform this command.

I thought this was weird because I am the server administrator.

You have to do 30000 damage in a set amount of time, but how much time do you have?


texts: How are you supposed to take sharp curves at speed?

texts:
I just got Redout and it has a very lacking tutorial.

It mentioned that I can strafe with the right stick, and that was the only hint it gave at how to corner well. It didn't say whether strafing left or right during a right turn was better, for example. It didn't say whether I should ease up on the gas, or brake, or anything like that.

What is the intended way to take sharper turns in this game? I can't seem to find a method that doesn't either kill my speed or have me smashing into a wall.

At least one instance of every biome
At least one Pig King.
At least one (usually 2-3) Totally Normal Trees
Maxwell's Door, and the five "Things" used to activate it.

What other special game elements are spawned naturally in every map?

By "special", I am ignoring things like type of tree, monsters, plants, boons, etc. Including all of those would make this question far too open.

I am thinking of set pieces or unique items -- things like:

Glommer's Statue
The small farm set piece (several Basic farms, carrots, twigs, and grass tufts, and usually (always?) the Metal Potato Thing)
Pig village(s)
Mandrakes -- the only non-unique item I'm including on this list
The Eye Bone
Others....??

I accidentally triggered a peculiar message while playing Blackbox:

I’m not sure what caused this message to appear, or what behavior the game is referring to.

What is the game telling me not to do? What makes this message appear?

Then I deployed 7 of my own resonators, upgrading 3 of them to level 2, but it won't let me upgrade anymore even though I have more level 2 resonators.  However, it won't let me deploy the 8th resonator, instead there's a link button, but whenever I click it, it says no linkable portals found.  There's another couple portals owned by my faction just 163m and 200m away that I have keys for, but if I click on it on the map, the link button is greyed out.

Why can't I deploy that last resonator, upgrade more resonators to level 2, or link to anything nearby.

During the quest "The bronze beneath the lake" you're searching the Lhe a Rhemen ruins.

Is there still something else to be done in those ruins? And how do I get those stone heads to do anything?

The missions I'm specifically talking about are the ones that spawn you in a tiny circular map where the sole objective is to defeat X number of enemies, not the standard missions where that can sometimes be a secondary objective.

These missions are always the hardest for me as I seem to run out of ammo in my Exosuit by the time I need to call in the evac shuttle and the maps are so small that my turrets are always in a position where they hit me.

FYI I'm level 11 and play with one other person just so have you have a general idea as to what I've unlocked thus far and my options as far as co-op mechanics.

texts: Why are Vestaldt's, Nashandra's and Throne Watcher/Defender Souls similar?

texts:
Ok so it's pretty self explanatory why Nashandra's soul has a "dark" appearance, (she is Manus, and Manus' soul was almost identical) but why do the Throne Watcher, the Throne Defender, and Vestaldt's have a similar appearance? Weren't they working against the queen?

The only time she shows herself to you is after you have reclaimed the King's Ring, (killed Vestaldt) and cleared the Throne of Want, (defeated the Throne duo). So if they were corrupted by the dark, would they not be working to help Nashandra?

Artorias (in DkS1) was corrupted by the dark, and his soul has a similar appearance, but even he had the sense to attempt to ward you off, in hopes that you would not fall to the Dark, before he was completely overtaken. Source: Cut Artorias Dialogue

texts: In Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War II I have been collecting blighted armour and weapons with negative armour ratings but various other stats perks. I am unable to donate these items for XP (unlike most other items), so is there any hidden bonuses from collecting it? i.e. will these items combine to make some kind of super armour if I collect the whole set?


texts: Does it make sense to upgrade the early weapons?

texts:
On the Normandy you have the option to upgrade your weapons, e.g. your M-15 Vindicator I to the M-15 Vindicator II or higher. I'm wondering if it makes sense to already upgrade my early weapons to a high level, the upgrades seem to be reasonably affordable at this early stage.

But I don't know if I will be still running around with the same weapons as now in the near future, or if I will have found some far better ones quickly. In ME1 you found better weapons pretty often (until you got the high-level Spectre gear), while in ME2 most weapons were just different, and not necessarily superior in every regard.

So, are the later weapons far superior to the early ones, or mostly just different?


texts: Is it possible to go back to the Slums after story finished?

texts: As the title says i want to know if it's possible to travel between the slums and the old town after i've completed the Story. Second question for this - is it possible to travel back to slums while the story is in the old town, if yes, is there a fast-travel way available?


texts: What transfers with your character in New Game+ mode?

texts:
If I decide to use New Game+ after completing the game, what transfers to the new game?

Will I have an opportunity to try a new character class or gender?
Will I be locked into the same Shepard that I chose originally?

Edit
If I originally started with a save game from ME2, will the choices I made in ME2 still be in effect for the New Game+ play through or will it use the ME3 standard set of choices for a new game?


texts: During the laning phase, when should you take your lane's turret?

texts:
This question has always bothered me while playing League of Legends. If I win my lane and take an early turret, I give myself the opportunity to roam at the cost of letting my opponent free farm their lane. While roaming benefits my team's other lanes, it also allows my lane to be counter-pushed and the turret taken.

However, if I choose not to take my opponent's turret, I force them into a somewhat dangerous position, as farming now leaves them open to ganks. As a counter point, though, doing so forces you to stay in your lane, lest your opponent push it and take your turret.

Thoughts?


texts: Are there any consequences/effects from not using blinkers?

texts:
So, yes. I'm using blinkers when turning right or left in the road, just like what I should do IRL.

I just want to ask if there're any events that may occur if I don't use them, like problems in driving, penalties in delivery, etc.


texts: Can you get a shiny or female Pokémon from an in-game trade?

texts: For example, if I trade a Bunnelby to Cliff for his Farfetche'd in Santalune City.


texts:
I'm in the second stage of the Vessel demo. Here I need to get a fluro to the button with the green light on it to lower the yellow-red door. When I make one, the fluro jumps his merry way on the three platforms and evaportes on the second.

It seems that the three lava fountains are fed from the water drain on the left, but trying to suck water off the water source doesn't seem to be any effective. What can I do then?

I have tried placing fluro seeds to reduce the amount of lava the fluro must get through (see above) but it also seems uneffective.
