texts: Does Ryo ever kill anyone in the Shenmue games?

texts:
I'm doing some research for a game project involving game violence, and I can't remember if Ryo Hazuki ever killed anyone in the Shenmue games. He certainly swears to avenge his father, and he beats up a lot of people, but did he ever actually kill anyone? I can't remember. My gut tells me "no", but I can't say for certain.

Does anybody know for sure if Ryo's ever killed anybody?


texts: Are the Wii U eshop and the 3DS eshop cross compatible?

texts:
On steam, I have a single ID. No matter which system I'm on, my games follow me. I get the game on my Windows Desktop and I can then download it and play it on my SteamPC (assuming it's compatible with both systems). Or on my Mac (likewise).

If I own a Wii U and a 3DS, are the consoles joined by a single Nintendo ID? If I buy Super Mario Bros 3 on the Wii U, can I play it on my 3DS?

I know you can pay to upgrade a Wii Console game to a Wii U for a "nominal" fee. But I don't see any mentions about Wii U and 3DS cross compatibility and account inter-twinings.


texts: What damage type is a Kobold's explosion?

texts:
I've built an Apprentice character that only has about 500 HP and Kobolds in the later waves of challenges have started to one shot my character. This makes it fairly difficult to repair towers once I get behind.

So, I'm curious if Kobold explosions are a specific damage type, like fire, so I could build up some resistances against them so they don't destroy my poor towers only Apprentice build.


texts: How much health do MOAB class bloons have? I was wondering and I noticed the that MOAB Assassin can destroy 1 MOAB, and 1000 dmg to ZOMGs. Does that mean MOABs have 1000 health? How about BFBs and ZOMGS?

texts: How do I make Talvas Fathyron stock up his merchant inventory?

texts:
Whenever I try to buy something from Talvas Fathryon, he shows me that he has absolutely nothing to sell:

This happened after I told Talvas to part ways with me (leave as a follower), and when I visited him at the Tel Mithryn Tower. I'm pretty sure that it's been more than 48 hours (so his merchant inventory should have reset by now), and I also don't recall buying out all his items (so he still should have a few items in his inventory). I have previously hired Talvas as a follower and remember viewing his non-empty merchant inventory before.

I would like to buy stuff from him as the "Talvas Fathryon" UESP wiki article states that "Talvas' store contains an extensive collection of standard Skyrim Destruction and Conjuration spell tomes, as well as tomes for additional spells added by the Dragonborn DLC".

The notes of the "Talvas Fathryon" UESP wiki article state that: "if you hire Talvas as your steward, his trade inventory will become inaccessible". However, I have not hired him as a steward.

I am playing on the PC and with mods (mod list here).

How do I make Talvas sell stuff again?

texts: I have been playing LoL for a little over a month, and I thought that the strategy of the game was to destroy the other team's nexus without losing yours. However, I've been watching league games, and they hide in bushes and take golems from across the river and the announcers are always talking about gold. Why? Am I wrong about LoL? Is there really more to it than just destroying the enemy nexus? Is League of Legends really an in-depth strategy game, or do they hide and take golems to just have more fun?

Assuming there's no way to sell, is this normal in roguelikes, or it a peculiar 'feature' of 100-rogues?

texts: How can I tell if a weapon is one or two handed?

texts: In Skyrim is there a way to tell if a sword is one or two handed without picking it up. I'm not a fan of two handed weapons and I don't want to pick them up just to drop them when I realize it's not one handed. Specially, I want to know about swords but the answer may apply to other weapons as well. Is there some icon I'm missing? Or is it just a matter of weight?

texts: How to ease bots (AI) management and configuration?

texts: I play CS:GO with my roommate against bots and we like to make custom games, say 2 CT's (us) vs 5 T's. Doing this in CS:GO requires some console commands. My question is, can we batch these commands somehow, or make a script that runs on server startup? The goal being to jump right into our custom setup without typing in a bunch of console commands and then restarting the server by hand.


texts: Why can't I scroll the camera wihile using FRAPS?

texts:
I've decided to try to review matches to improve. I've already started using replay clients (like BaronReplay) to rewatch matches, but that gives me an omniscient perspective. To try and see gameplay from my view, I've decided to use FRAPS to record it.

However, when FRAPS is running, I can't seem to scroll the view by moving my mouse to the edge of the screen. I normally play in Windowed, but I tried changing it to Borderless and Full-screen with no results. This is a big issue since I can't really play without the ability to move the camera with my mouse.

How can I move around the camera with my mouse while using FRAPS?

texts: I'm iLvl 641 resto druid and average 20K healing what am I doing wrong

texts:
I have studied the rotations for the druid on the 6.0.3 and am pretty sure I am following them (although I may be forgetting something).

Here are the average stats (per tick and by seconds):

Wild Mushroom : 2.5K/pop (1.5K/sec)
Healing Touch : 18K
Regrowth : 10K
Lifebloom : 1.5K/pop (2K/sec)
Rejuvenation (with germination) : 2.5K/pop (2K/sec)
Swiftmend : 17K

Armory Link

I must admit, I did not boost my character (gems/enchants) as of now, and do not exactly intend so before I can stabilise a bit my equipment (after I'll finish gearing up I guess).

I guess I am looking at some tips to make sure if I forgot something (equipment/rotation/something else) that might help boost my healings. So far, most of the healers get around 25K/30K on  raids, I have a hard time following them.


texts: Do the Doom Bots of Doom have Hidden Bonuses?

texts:
So the new Coop-vs-AI Modus Doom Bots of Doom lets you play against "Unfair" Bots. All of them have enhanced abilities and after the second difficulty they also have Weird Passives (Seriously who the hell thinks that Swain ultimate makes a good passive??).

Now while most of the Additional Spells are shown in-game or at least in the patch notes (Additional champion abilities, Passives and Dragon-Teleport) I sometimes feel like the bots Have some extra Bonuses.

The 2 main things that come to my mind are: Better Scalings and More gold. I'm not 100% sure and I don't really have a source on this but I feel like the bots scale better with AP/AD and I also feel like they get more gold than the players (The bots farm is pretty crappy but they still manage to keep up in items somehow).

Are there any things like more damage, more gold or more resistance that aren't described in-game or in the patch notes that apply to these Bots?

texts: Is there supposed to be no (non mission) boats in Watch Dogs?

texts:
I've been playing Watch Dogs for a couple weeks now and I'm really frustrated by this apparent bug in the game. Unless its during a mission, there are no boats in the game. This makes it impossible for me to do things like the missing persons, because one of the spots is on the lighthouse far away form the mainland.

Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a fix for it?

texts:
I just completed the quest Alduin's Bane. Serana was my follower at the time.

My problem is that during the fight with Alduin, Paarthurnax must have accidentally damaged Serana or vice versa, and now that the fight is over they are fighting each other.

I am playing on PC so I will be able to use console commands.

How should I go about fixing this? I tried selecting Serana and typing 'resetai' and 'disable'/'enable' but she continues attacking Paarthurnax.

Update: I temporarily fixed the issue by reducing Serana's health to 0 and then fast travelling elsewhere. I wasn't able to see what would happen when she got back up but I will leave this question up anyway as I suspect that there would be a cleaner solution using console commands.

The hideout itself has a very recognizable door (as you saw in the vision), so it should be easy to identify once you found it.

Am I not looking thoroughly enough or is the quest marker in the wrong place?

texts:
I've heard the term "softlock" used a lot, especially in speedrunning contexts, and I have picked up an intuitive vague definition from context. It seems to mean getting the game into a state where winning/progressing is impossible, but the game doesn't give you a game over screen or otherwise acknowledge this unwinnable state.

However, it's not clear to me that all such instances are considered softlocks. For example, some games (notably old-school adventure games) allow you to save your game and continue playing after missing your only opportunity to acquire an item or trigger an event that is required for victory. Usually this is intended by the developers as a way to troll the player or extend the gameplay time by forcing them to restart, but in some instances it may be because the player took a route that was not anticipated by the developers and sequence-broke the game. I've also heard of saving (or auto-saving) immediately before an impending death cited as an example of a softlock. Yet another example is cases where some or all of the controls become unresponsive, or a critical menu screen becomes inaccessible, while the game continues to run normally otherwise. And of course there's cases where you simply fall into an inescapable pit, get stuck in a wall, or are otherwise immobilized without dying.

The above examples represent a wide variety of "unwinnable states", but which of them are considered softlocks? Does it depend on triggering glitches or other behavior that the developers didn't intend? Does it depend on whether or not loading your saved game fixes it, or whether it can only be fixed by restarting from the beginning of the game? Are there any other considerations I've missed that distinguish a softlock from some other kind of unwinnable state? What is the definition of a softlock?

texts:
The last few days I've received the dreaded

  The DARK SOULS II service is not available

message almost every time I open this game. To the best of my knowledge I'm not blocked in any way, I haven't changed any firewall settings lately, and I was able to play online for some time yesterday. Bandai Namco support links to a dead website for server status and their news page doesn't have any news since before the PC release, so I'm stumped: Is the status of the Dark Souls II service available anywhere?


texts: Mass Effect 2: Delay Reaper IFF Instalation

texts:
I wanted to play Mass Effect 2 again but now picking different options and morale.

But I forgot about the internal countdown do Omega 4 Relay that, according to wiki, is randomly computed based on number of available missions which, I think, start counting from the moment I give EDI an OK to proceed with IFF install.

So, I was going on with my playthrough, went to Tali's Trial at Migrant Fleet (for which I took Legion as second squadmate - I wanted to watch the world burn) and after that, while finishing some planet explorations, suddenly, I was interrupted by the main questline with Collectors invasion and crew abductions.

And here starts the problem. Although I'm playing to be a ruthless renegade, I want everyone alive but I can't complete even one single mission prior to go through Omega 4 relay, otherwise, as well known, Kelly Chambers (and half of the crew) would die.

I don't have ME2 DLCs, not other than the ones included in trilogy box, the one I bought. I was planning to buy them next Monday but before doing so I would like to know if with this little number of remaining missions available before abductions, I'll be able to complete all the questline of all worth to get DLCs.

If not, is there anything else I can do, even if I have to use Gibbe ME2 Save Editor, or rollback prior to Reaper IFF acquisition is my only solution?

I'm looking for information on how to earn Ascended tier items in Guild Wars 2, to make high-level runs of the new dungeon, Fractals of the Mists, easier. This tier of loot is between Exotic and Legendary for those that did not know.

When running through FotM, you can pick up 'Vials of Condensed Mists', which I can only assume are crafting materials for either infusions or Ascended gear. There are infusions and a Gift of Ascension available for sale (for FotM tokens) from a merchant in the FotM lobby. So, my main questions are:

How does one use these materials (Vials, infusions) for crafting?
Are backpieces and jewelry the only items you can make (as ANet said), or has anyone made any weapons?
Are there any other infusions available?

There are a lot of quests, my quest log is literally bursting. I get that "Priority Ops" are to continue the main story directly, that the "Allies" quests are primarily loyalty missions but also some other character-arc type quests not relating to your on board crew and then there's an endless list of tasks.

Does the amount of time you take to complete particular objectives impact anything?

What I mean is, as a random example, if after saving the Moshae I then proceed to do every quest on the map before returning her to Aya, would this change anything? Do I miss out on anything by leaving it too long or are there any objectives only available within a particular timeframe?

It seems to me that there would have to be a "right time", because otherwise, how would I load the vehicle with the correct mode?

During Excalibur Invasion (KvK), invading kingdoms can attack the throne and the towers (video).

However sometimes the troops are killed instantly after defeat even while protecting the tower. Shouldn't be the same game logic when you're protecting alliance tower or a castle, so the troops are hospitalised?

How many towers do you need to control to avoid instant kills and get your troops safely to the hospitals? Basically what are the rules to avoid instant kills during KvK?

I'm pretty sure my laptop is way beyond the minimum specs. Does someone know how can I enter the game?


texts: What factors influence pokemon breeding time?

texts:
After some time playing Omega Ruby and attempting to complete my Dex, I've noticed some substantial variability in the time it takes to produce an egg. It got me thinking - what actually determines the breeding time?

I've done some casual looking, but can't find too much on the subject - just some vague notions about compatibility and certain types taking longer. I haven't been able to accurately reproduce a breeding cycle, but I think I've determined a few factors that may influence it:

Day/night: breeding seems to take a LOT longer after the sun sets. When breeding for a specific nature, during the day I often fill my party with eggs before any of them hatch. When breeding the same pokemon into the night, though, I often hatch 2-3 before gaining another egg.
Held items: any incense-breeding to produce a baby pokemon seems to reliably take longer than breeding the pokemon itself.
Marathons: The breeding rate seems to change steadily the longer a certain pokemon is in the daycare. For some, the time seems to increase - for others (mostly starters), the eggs seem to come faster and faster. Not reliable.
Level: Higher-level pokemon seem to have a slightly higher average breeding time. Not reliable.
Evolution: Breeding an evolution vs a base (eg Blastoise vs a Squirtle) seems to increase the average breeding time in some cases. Not reliable.
Type: Type doesn't seem to affect breeding time at all. I've had dragon-types spit out a second egg faster than I could walk away, and I've had a Caterpie take literally 20 minutes to produce.
Rarity/Power: Very subjective/unreliable. The more powerful/difficult-to-obtain a pokemon is, the longer it seems to take to breed. I tried to benchmark this with a Kangaskhan, Metagross, Gloom, and Wurmple - the first two took considerably longer to produce than the second two. There are definite exceptions (see Caterpie above). This may also just be a function of level/evolution.

This is not a rigorous exploration by any means - I haven't timed cycles or anything. There's also the chance that it's 100% random and I'm basing conjecture on happenstance.

Can anyone tell me what factors actually influence breeding time?


texts: What do I need to do to earn the tier 6 mission chest reward?

texts:
I've noticed that no matter how well my team and I have done in missions so far, we have never gotten a tier 6 mission chest. Even after earning two of three platinum medals, completing all optional objectives, and fully exploring the map, we barely scraped our way into the tier 5 chest (based on the progress bar displayed at the end of the mission).

Do certain conditions need to be attained, such as earning all three platinum medals and completing all optional objectives? Are there other "hidden" medals like the Explorer medal, which don't show up until you earn them that would improve our overall score?

Can you destroy a starbase without destroying the underlying resource?
If not, is there a way to capture starbases like you capture planets? (i.e. not through influence, but in a faster way)

In CS:GO, two new grenades were introduced: the incendiary and the molotov.

One thing however is, I'm confused at what the difference between these two is.  Incendiary, when exploding, leaves a field of fire (also for CT), making it hard for enemies to pass. Molotov (for T) seems to do the exact same thing.

Is there something I'm missing here?  Is there a key difference between the two? Both the Molotov and the Incendiary seem to do the same thing.


texts: Unable to obtain Massage Oil after completing The Monster Who Cried Girl achievement

texts:
So I was working towards full completion of Goosebumps: The Game, however I ran into a bit of an issue when I needed to finish the Night of the Giant Inventory achievement which requires me to have picked up every item in a single playthough.

It turns out the item I'm missing is the Massage Oil, which coincidentally, is in the only room I'm unable to access. The mall security guard has the room blocked off since I finished the The Monster Who Cried Girl achievement prior to realizing my mistake. I also saved after completing that achievement.

So my question is, is there any way to access the Massage Kiosk room after completing the achievement, The Monster Who Cried Girl?

I'm not very far into the game yet, but I've played a couple of missions where I accidentally killed my infantry team with my artillery team. Every time this occurs I have restarted because I wasn't sure if the killed units would be permanently gone after the mission.

Does anyone know what happens to units that are killed during a mission?


texts: Where is my Insaniquarium Steam Product Activation Code?

texts: Forgive me if my title was a bit wordy and confusing, but I simply want to know where my product activation code for my Insaniquarium Deluxe is. I wish to add it on Steam so that I can play it there and so that it is easier to find it (as I am very forgetful). So, where can I find my product activation code? Pictures would be nice, but not needed. I bought it from Target a few years back.

Help?


texts: Can I stop Nethack from generating or loading bones files on Linux?

texts: I prefer not to play with bones, so I tried setting OPTIONS=bones:no in my .nethackrc file. When I load nethack (the version compiled from source), it just tells me "Bad syntax in OPTIONS in .nethackrc: bones:no.", even though it worked when I put it in my defaults.nh file on Windows. All of my other options work properly, so it seems like this one is the only problematic one. I even tried using the nethack.alt.org git repository for the source code, and it still doesn't recognize the option. Is there an option I can set to do this on Linux?

texts: Do the 14 people of "Let Sleeping Mountains Lie" help in any way?

texts:
Follow up to : Who are the people who help with "Let Sleeping Mountains Lie"?

They show you that you could have up to 14 people "helping" you on this quest (as far as I know, it's just talking to you in the diner where you start the quest).

I personally had 12, and now have to go against a level 99 monster.

But is having more or less of these 14 in the diner change the quest? Like if I would have all 14 would the quest be easier? Would having less than I have now make the quest harder?

Does the number of people "helping" you in that diner change the quest at all?

texts: Does an obsidian block affect sound transmission?

texts:
So I was slime-hunting because I heard the sound of a slime through the wall. I kept digging, following the sound of the slime, until I dug down to a lava pit, surrounded by some stone. I safely went down to the area, and the slime sound was getting louder and louder. The area was pretty small, and I did not want to fall into the lava. I had a water bucket with me, so I poured it on the lava and it turned to obsidian. Then the slime sound stopped. No more. Nada. I turned around and went back home, quite sad. Later, I thought:

Could the obsidian mute the sound of the slime?
Maybe if I dig through the obsidian, I will be able to find the slime?


texts:
Had anyone ever encountered an issue when playing with a 360 (I'm using a Razer Sabertooth) gamepad in Windows where one or both of the sticks seems like it's pushing upwards slightly?
The issue appears only in certain games but is constant rather than intermittent in those games.
I get it in both Assassin's Creed Unity (but not Black Flag) where the camera pushes up above Arnot all the time (but I can easily move it back) and also in Valkyria Chronicles where I can't even get past the menu as the highlighted menu item scrolls as if the left stick were jammed all the way up.
I've tried different USB ports and the like with no success. I'm not aware of any separate drivers that can be installed (razer don't seem to have any and windows treats it as a standard 360 controller). The bit that really fries my noodle is that it works perfectly in other games!


texts: Can't play older game on Windows Surface Pro

I've been trying to install both Anachronox, and Star Wars: KOTOR on my 128gb Windows Surface Pro.  I can install fine, but both crash on startup.  I've googled everything i possibly can - installed all updates, patches, driver updates, etc, that i can think of.  Anachronox crashes as soon as i click the icon with "Anox.exe ha stopped working" and kotor crashes after the space ship splash screen, with no error whatsoever.

I feel like this has something to do with the graphics (intel hd 4000 on the surface pro) but i cannot for the life of me make any progress.  Does anyone hve any recommendations on what to try?  Thankyou so much for any advice.


texts: How do I beat the Siren without any magic or items?

texts:
I'm playing Final Fantasy V. Right after the giving my characters jobs, I went to the first village and couldn't really afford any magic - just Poisona for my white mage.

Now I'm in the ship graveyard area, and can't beat the Siren. And, apparently I can't go back to the village to buy any new magic spells.

As far as items go, I have barely anything - no potions, no Phoenix Downs, just a couple of Antidotes.

It seems like at this point my only recourse is to start over, because I can't seem to defeat the Siren. Any tips?

So I'd like to get the others early if there are any and do them at the appropriate level.

texts: Could Removing A Nintendo Game Boy Game While The Console Is Powered-On Do Any Damage?

texts:
I've looked all over the Internet to try to find an answer to this, but I can't. I want to know if removing a Nintendo Game Boy game while the console is powered on will do any damage, like rendering the cart and/or console unusable.

I don't think it will cause any damage, seeing as most games have volatile RAM and should go back to normal when inserted into the Game Boy again and powered on, but I'd like an actual source.

Also, I understand that with a standard Game Boy and game, removing the game while the console is on is impossible, due a plastic arm sliding over to cover the game when the power switch is moved. This is assuming I'm using another Game Boy product that doesn't have that feature, such as the Game Boy Color, or an original model modded to remove the arm.

Reviving a very old game: I just bought Silver on gog.com, because I wanted to play this classic of my childhood (may or not be a classic of yours).

I've killed the giant at the Ice Caves and acquired the Orb of Ice, then proceeded to visit the professor in Gno. He told about a necromancer that has a submarine that will allow travelling to Spires.

I remember from playing the game when I was little that there was a tavern in Rain, where there was a old man that knew the password for the bell-locked gate which grants access to lower Rain, however I can't seem to find it.

Thanks in advance


texts: Using a headset with Rock Band 3 for vocals

texts:
In the past, I've played guitar in RB3/GHWT and sung at the same time using a mic stand and the GHWT mic. This works fine with the stock mic, because the guitar's strum and buttons are fairly quiet. However, I like playing drums more, but they don't play nicely with the mic because of their being considerably louder... Thus, I was wondering if it would be possible to use a gaming headset instead of the speakers and stock mic; listening through the headphones and singing through the mic. Could this work? Has anyone tried it? I was considering using a standard USB headset, but they use the same plug for mic and audio out, which wouldn't work. Thus, I'm thinking about using a standard 3.5mm headset with separate stereo plugs for mic and headphones, with the mic plug attached to my 360 via a 3.5mm -> USB converter of sorts (see below). Thoughts?

Something like these:

http://www.amazon.com/Channel-External-Sound-Audio-Adapter/dp/B007HISGRW/ref=pd_sim_e_4
http://www.amazon.com/Syba-SD-CM-UAUD-Adapter-C-Media-Chipset/dp/B001MSS6CS/ref=pd_sim_e_1

TL;DR: Can I use a gaming headset's mic for vocals in Rock Band 3 (Xbox 360)?

I have a feeling I just need to wait until I can buy a better gun, but my question still stands:

Is there locational damage when hunting?

Observation on bows. Efficacy greatly varies with bow

I have three bows. Villager‘s hazel bow, requiring (Strength, Agility)  > (4,3) then Villager‘s yew bow, requiring (6,4) and some hunting bow I don’t have on me, with strength requirement 8. My strength and agility both equal 12 my bow skill 4.

texts: How are rare gems used when I purchase them?

texts:
I recently downloaded Bejeweled-Blitz to my iPhone.  A recent update has changed the application so that between each game, I am asked if I want to purchase a "Rare Gem".  There are 5 different types of Rare Gems and, from what I can gather, the only way to purchase them is to purchase the one you are offered, in between each round.

I think these rare gems are offered at random, however, some of them seem be more rare than others.  Also, each gems has an explanation as to what it does.  I'm not interested in that.  What I would like to know is when or if I purchase one of these gems, how do I use it?

Will they automatically appear in my next game?  Will they only appear for a limited number of rounds?  Is it a one-time purchase, and then these gems will randomly show up on the board?

I'm curious because even though I enjoy the game, I'm not interested in spending any money to buy additional coins.  Since the coins I do have are precious, I don't want to buy and of these gems if they are to expensive for the reward.  The benefit of the purchase may be subjective to the user, however, knowing the exact mechanics of how these gems are used can help me figure out whether I'd like to buy them or not.

texts: How do I run more than one city simultaneously?

texts:
I recently asked this question regarding if it's possible to run SimCity in the background.  (In retrospect, this was a stupid question because if I had spent a moment to play with it myself I would have realized the answer was an obvious "Yes", but that's besides the point.)  Now that I know the answer is yes, I am interested if it is possible to run two instances of SimCity simultaneously.  For example, it would be nice to have one 'stable' city running in the background accumulating wealth with me actually playing a developing city in the foreground.  As it stands now, if I just want to pass time in one city to earn some effortless cash, I can't actually play the game (unless you count staring at the screen doing nothing but watching a number increase as "playing").

I've tried the obvious things:  Origin won't let you click the "Play" button while the game is running, and simply double-clicking the .exe file itself just brings up the current window.  So then, is there a way to run multiple instances of SimCity simultaneously on the same computer so as be able to play more than one city simultaneously?

I have this problem in my elder scrolls 4 (see video below):

you see the magic ? is like the magic had lag, instead of need a second to finish, with this problem need more time. Is a really pain in the ass.
this is the second time that happend to me. in the steam version. I think there is a problem with the cinematic, because the first that happend before i finish the main quest, so the final scene when martin becomes akathosh it took 20 minutes for that scene to finish.
Because of that, I started the game again. This time I finish de main quest, and the dls. Now i was playing with mods, but again, this problem appaers again.
Anyone could guess why is this happening? I try with previous saves but the same problem happens.

Early in the game, you unlock Strongholds, in which you can build various projects in order to gain benefits (such as refueling and rearming when visiting the base, or additional scrap when you destroy cars).

How is the stronghold made better by adding these piles of scrap, or is it simply cosmetic?

texts: Does the frozen biome itself provide cooling?

texts:
The frozen biomes are great places to cool things down, which is a constant challenge in the game and requirement for Sleet Wheat.  Usually there is a lot of liquifiable and cool frozen water and polluted water in these biomes. Often one way or another all the frozen ice in a frozen biome eventually melts from exposure to heat from different sources and digging.  That leaves me wondering if the biome loses its cooling ability after everything has melted, besides any thermo-nullifers that might be there.

I once tried to melt a frozen biome with the redirected output from a cool steam vent but it didn't seem to make much progress in consistently warming even a small part of the frozen biome.

Does the frozen biome cause any cooling by itself or is any cooling the result of the frozen resources within it only?

If it does cause cooling, how much?

So I'm farming candy at the Castle's Entrance. I have equipped the Boots of Introspection, the obsidian Octopus crown, and the Monkey Wizard's enchanted staff.

If I start spamming acid rain instead, will it do enough damage to the octopi so that I can jump my way clear? Or is my only hope the exit without loot button and lose the ~2 million candies I've accumulated so far?


texts: PS3 Slim 4.55 No Display, No Video, No Audio

texts:
I have a PS3 Slim 120 GB. I just updated to 4.55, and it got stuck while restarting the system. I force shut it down, and in doing so, I corrupted the hard drive. Now, I do not have any display (I tried HDMI and the AV adapter), and I can't even get into Safe Mode after following  the appropriate steps. After removing the hard drive from the PS3, I see the error message that the media storage cannot be found, so I know that my hard drive is corrupted.

But now, I can boot into safe mode by following the steps without the hard drive. I made a USB flash drive with the 4.55 update, so is there a way for me to possibly put the PS3 hard drive in while safe mode is still displayed on the screen, and then restore the update that is on my flash drive to the hard drive? Or can I put the hard drive in while safe mode is running and then restore the file system?

texts: Will the Taint ever overrun the bio-domes?

texts:
I recently started playing the Blightfall mod pack. The pack is centered around the exploration of a "tainted" world and uses Thaumcraft's Taint to achieve this. The player can enter one of several pre-generated "bio-domes", each of which contains 3 beds, a Bookshelf, and a Silverwood tree in the center.

Mirabelle Hackett, one of the NPCs, stated that the player(s) should be safe within the domes, and I have observed that it does not seem to pass through the glass that the domes are made of. However, some areas aren't blocked off. For example, at the "Beta" dome, there is an open cave with no glass covering the entrance at any point.

Am I in danger of being overrun by the Taint, or will it never seriously threaten the domes?

How will level differences be resolved, if at all, when playing with friends in Destiny?

In particular:

Can I play a mission again with a friend, even though I'm higher level than him? Say I'm level 6, he's level 2 (just started), can I play one of the first missions together with him or will I be locked out?
Will there be penalties for me/him because of the level difference?
Is there a mentoring system in place that scales one of us to the level of the other (or similar)?

Or is this perhaps just not a good idea in Destiny?


texts: How to avoid the bug when you cannot join either team - class change and team change keys not working

texts:
Sometimes during the map restart, when there are many people joining blue or red team, I usually meet the bug when I choose a team to join, but it fails (due to too uneven number of players probably), and when I try to choose a team again, nothing happens - pressing , or . doesn't work - neither class menu nor team menu is appearing, and all I see is the map aerial view with scoreboard. The only thing to do is to re-connect to that server (which is not always possible if the server is full and you're still connected but 'stuck', so no player slot is available).

How to avoid this or how to prevent, or how to recover from such a bug?

texts:

Also, how many seconds is it, and how does that change?


texts: What is channeling efficiency, and what does it do?

So, most mods that had "Charge speed" or "charge damage" have now been replaced with "Channeling efficiency" as a stat.

What does Channeling efficiency do?  When it says "+30% Channeling Efficiency", what exactly is happening? Does it mean it costs less energy per melee hit while channeling, does it mean I get more damage out of channeling, does it have any other effect?

texts: Can I salvage my KSP career with a single launch

texts:
My KSP career has stagnated. I can't get enough income from contracts to cover my launch costs. My per launch costs to LKO and back are 20-30k depending on payload size. Is there any way to get income other than through contracts?

Here's what I have to work with:

39k in cash
Flight Control (and everything before it plus Advanced Rocketry)
EVAs from an astronaut training complex
Have never returned or transmitted EVA data from space
37 research

I have very few contracts that will pay for a launch. I have more contract slots available, but no lucrative contracts available.

64k to recover Herdun Kerman from a 100km circular orbit of Kerbin.
124k to explore the Mun
27k to transmit or recover science data from space around Kerbin.

A series of small catastrophes have depleted my surplus resources. An experimental orbiter left Jeb stranded in Kerbin orbit with no means to return. I recruited two more pilots who suffered similar fates. I dispatched first Camley Kerbin then Billy-Bobdrin Kerman to recover Herdun Kerman. Camley got within a couple kilometers multiple times before depleting his fuel reserves; he had to deorbit. While Camley was deorbiting, Billy-Bobdrin launched a follow-up mission to recover Herdun. Billy overshot his prograde burn at periapsis and couldn't match Herdun's orbit. In an effort to salvage Billy's launch, mission control directed him into a polar orbit to survey new biomes. Billy overcooked that burn as well and is stranded in an eternal Kerbin orbit serving as a warning to new pilots. This warning is apparently too severe; no new pilots are willing to sign on. When mission control was done with Billy they turned their attention back to Camley, but couldn't find him on tracking; it's presumed that Camley began his deorbit but never deployed his parachutes. In another serious blow, the contractor offering to pay for science data from space around Kerbin wouldn't pay for a recovered mystery goo observation made in LKO by engineer-turned-pilot Bill Kerman.

Is there any way to get income from a launch other than through contracts?

texts: In campaign, is it more profitable to keep buying colony modules or paying off debt / accumulating cash?

texts: I've noticed that after a certain number of purchased modules, the projected cash/week figure doesn't increase noticeably. My play style results in a lot of debt until the steady production can be established, and so I wonder if I'd be better off by paying it off until the end of the last sol or buying all available colony modules? Or maybe the most efficient is to find a middle ground between the two?

Now, I have the desert bird feather with allows me to jump higher with the pogo stick, but it's still not high enough to make it completely out of the hole. The only option left is the teleport. I don't know if the teleport feature is something everyone has right off the bat or if it's something I have to find, but I can't find it on my screen. So... uh, where is it please?

Minor spoilers warning

We learn during the game that Albert Fink, Jeremiah's brother, was able to listen to music through Tears and claim it as his own. During the game, you can hear "oldified" version of songs that came out after the game's timeline.

I've heard Cyndi Lauper's "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" through a tear (but not its old version) and during the end credits I've heard a version of "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" by Tears For Fears (Ha!).

What is the full list of all the futuristic (as of 1912) songs that appear during the game and when do they appear?

texts: Missing options in carpenter's workbench

texts:
So I have a PS3 and all the DLC's (downloadable content) one of which is Hearthfire. So, I have since made, completed and moved in my family (husband, kids) into my first finished house.

I've been feeling pretty cluttered and like I needed more room so I decided to go see if it was possible to buy another house for storage purposes, so I go to the Jarl in Dawnstar.

To get this plot of land I had to kill a giant, which I did. I returned to the Jarl and I got my land to build on. I go to the location, all happy to begin building, no big deal. Right? WRONG!

So originally back at my house (1st one) if I went to my drafting table I had options to remove the carpenter's workbenches (which I have yet to do) or "remodel home into entryway" which I was absolutely not going to do to my first finished house, but the point is, at my new home, home #2, I had those options pop up in the misc section on my drafting table. It didn't bring up the house section where I can lay down the "small house layout". Only once I built an outside grindstone (because I was testing to see if it would help, or something) did the option to build the layout pop up. That was great and perfect, onto the foundation and frames, right?

Well, not exactly in my case, when I went to the carpenter's workbench right beside the drafting table to build for my house, no option popped up in the "house" section. Just the "misc" items, like the grindstone and the weapon and armory upgrade bench and stone wheel. I had no option to build my foundation.

Also, I had plenty of the materials needed (lumber, iron ingots, fittings, nails, etc.) to build these things. I had waited on the game, gone back to the carpenter's workbench several times, gone from one random place and back to see if that would do the trick, but no...

I'm feeling really at a loss, cause I spent money on this land (for presumably nothing ), and I just wanted a place for storage and to look out over the land in a library tower which I lack from my first home.

Overall, I want to now if there's a way to get these house building options to pop up, and start building.

Does it have any in-game effects if you play Pokemon Go in another country? For example, if you catch Oddish in Hong Kong, is the Oddish you catch there different from a Oddish you catch in Tokyo (e.g. the country of catch is recorded on the data)?

Note that I do NOT mean whether you can play Pokemon Go in another country just using your home country's account; I ask if the data under it has any differences on playing among different countries, much like the 3DS games which show the birthplace (e.g. USA or JPN) and sometimes let you name in a  different way like Hangul.

texts: Jewel crafting gems cost more than cut, how to make money

texts: I'm slightly confused. From what I've seen, many people said jewel crafting is a very profitable career. I just purchased a Delicate Queen's Garnet recipe that allows me to create red +50 agility gems. However, after looking for raw materials (Queen's Garnet), the going price for those in the AH is roughly 750G. I see Brilliant Queen's Garnet (the cut) selling for 450G. How is someone supposed to make profit with going rates such as these? Buying the raw material and cutting it just does not seem feasible.


texts:
We're upgrading our 3 aging PS2's at work to PS3's today, to get GT5 and other games, and seeing as I have a PS3 at home, a few questions come to mind:

Can we create profiles for the people that will play and have them exist on all the 3 PS3's?
Can I take my home profile and use it on those 3 PS3?
Would I need to keep it on a USB stick (assuming that is even possible)?
Can I "download" it onto the machines?
What about ranks in games such as Call of Duty Black Ops, would that follow my profile or be locked to one of the machines?

Basically I would like to play with my own profile regardless of which of those 3 PS3's I'm sitting at, and I would guess that many at work would want their own profile to play with too, without that being locked to a single PS3 either. For instance, it wouldn't be much fun if the profile of two of the players that want to play together only exists on the same PS3.

Hope I was being clear what I wanted.

How do armor piercing ammo like the Feltrite AR Rounds or the Authority AV2x Rounds affect non-armored targets?

Do they cause less damage on non-armored targets, compared to their non-armor piercing counterparts (ala Fallout New Vegas ammo types)? Or are they simply better versions of their non-armor piercing counterparts?

I'm asking because I am deciding if I should still use regular non-armor piercing ammo or not, depending on if armor-piercing ammo work better against non-armored targets.

Posts in this RAGE forum thread in the Steam Forums have different opinions about this.


texts: Is "+attack speed" more beneficial to fast weapons?

texts:
I've read through various existing "attack speed" related questions - notably this one and this one and this one. However, I can't seem to find the answer I'm looking for.  I have two similar DPS weapons, but one has a significantly higher attack speed.  I know that the attack speed is factored into the DPS stat of the weapon, but I'm curious whether one of those weapons will benefit more from increased attack speed from other items and abilities.

For example, given a 1000 DPS dagger and a 1000 DPS axe, will the dagger (faster) benefit more from increased attack speed (from gloves, Frenzy, etc)?  Or will the two weapons benefit equally?

texts: Unbalanced square brackets in spawning a custom villager

texts:
Just a heads up, if I seem inexperienced in typing my question in a certain style, please forgive me!

I used a command generator, from this link, to spawn a villager who sells custom weapons.

However, the generator does not support villagers selling custom WEAPONS, only custom ITEMS. That means I have to enter the values myself, given the format provided. I have 2 more of such commands and they work perfectly fine, but only this one has a persistent problem.

The command is extremely long (well, at least for me) and correcting the unbalanced brackets is an uphill task for my inexperienced self.

In Into the Breach, from the shopping UI after defending an island, does permanently assigning a pilot to an island in exchange for reputation remove the pilot from your hangar?

I don't want to permanently lose any pilots from my hangar for future playthroughs, but it seems like good option to trade in extra pilots for rep because otherwise they are just diddling around doing nothing.

I didn't see an explanation on wiki or blogs about the 'permanently assign to island' mechanic for pilots, can somebody who has tried it explain that please?

I would try it myself but I don't feel like cheating and since it is a rogueish-like I am fearing permanent consequences. (but please correct me if that is not the case, thanks!)

texts: Why can't my Time Traveler phase through the stalactites after the Twins' Mansion?

texts:
After the Twins' Mansion, the Cave Tour continues to a set of stalactites/stalagmites. With the time traveler, apparently it is supposed to be possible to use her ability to phase forward through them. For example, this YouTube video starts right off by showing exactly this. Looks trivially easy.

However, this doesn't work for me. I'm playing on an Android Galaxy, and when I do the same thing, the phase effects show they are trying to do that, but they fizzle and fail, and the time traveler does not move.

Is this a glitch in this version of the game, or is there something I'm doing wrong, or need to do first to get this to work? I notice that even with no obstacle, my time traveler's ability doesn't seem to move her - but I'm not sure if that's supposed to happen or not with no obstacle. She can't just walk through the stalactites, and I've tried it from a variety of distances.

texts:
I have played LOTS of Skyrim on PC and am a little familiar with the in-game console that lets you add items and things, but I am wondering if there is anyway to use that to modify the game so I can play through considered as 'friendly' with what are usual enemies.

I am not sure if this is possible, but part of why I like these RPG style games is for the 'Role-Playing' aspect and I am hoping to playthrough as a generic Bandit or something similar.

Any help on this is appreciated :-)

NOTE: I do not have the character creation kit or any other addons. I only have the main game of Skyrim (no add-on content) for the PC and cannot buy anything extra. That said, please don't answer with options that require additional purchases.


texts: How do you beat Tyl Regor (boss of Uranus)?

texts:
Tyl Regor is proving to be a particularly tough boss to beat.

He has a rapidly regenerating shield, can teleport, become invisible, and owns up close.

Energy drops around his arena are extremely infrequent, ruling out most abilities.

I've tried:

Magnetic - strips his shield fast enough, useless against his armour.
Radiation - best damage against his armour, but struggles to chip away at his shield as fast as it regenerates.
Toxic - if I could spend a few hours dodging his attacks this might take him down eventually.

I've tried with a variety of different combinations, but generally run out of ammo in his first phase.

I'd happily team up to defeat him, but I'm on Xbox, so not much chance of finding a team for that.

How do I beat him solo (using abilities and weapons unlocked before Uranus/Natah)?

Recently I started a free trial for Minecraft Realms on the PC edition, but now I've noticed that I have only 6 days left, so I'd like to pay for it. However, I've seen Minecraft pre-paid cards in the store, and I was wondering if I could cash them out to get a longer subscription for realms?

I've not had much look searching on the internet, and so any help would be appreciated.

It's not anywhere in the maze tower or on the floor of the maze tower, not near the portal, not anywhere around the chest at the top or in the chest and it's not on the ground on the outside of the tower.

I've been looking for this for days. Left Soul Cairn and came back, quit game and came back, looked around again - nothing. I have to keep all the other letters in my book inventory until I finish the quest.

Does Jiub's Opus page 9 eventually reappear?


texts: How significant is the discount for each of the shops compared to the ship?

texts:
Cortez mentions that you get higher prices by shopping through him due to shipping (I'd hate to see the shipping cost across a couple of relays in wartime).

My question is simple:  How significant are the discounts for each shop in the game and where are the original shops located?
