I showed my dad a magazine of games for him to pick out a game to get for Christmas. despite being told that he's getting only one he picked two: Call of Duty: Infinite Warfare and Titanfall 2.

When I got him his Christmas present last year we wanted to choose between Assassin's Creed Syndicate, Halo 5 and Fallout 4 but I chose Fallout 4 because I knew it'll last him much longer than the other two. I want to do the same this year but I'm unsure which has more offline Single Player Content.

So which game has more Offline Single Player Content? Call of Duty Infinite Warfare or Titanfall 2?

By Offline Single Player Content I'm talking about gameplay which is single player and doesn't require the internet. How long would it take on average to complete everything for single player in one difficulty (preferably the easiest since my dad starts off with that).

texts: Has Minecraft mob spawning been changed to reduce effectiveness of vanilla mob farms?

texts:
I built the Minecraft mob farm as shown in

and it doesn't seem to work at all well on my 1.8 server. If I sit in the AFK area, I don't get any mobs. I'm using the layout shown in this diagram (see top left option):

 and of course, I've lit up all the caves and there are no spawn-able areas other than inside the spawner itself.

The weird thing is, if I go away from the mob spawner and then come back and run rings around it, going from the bottom to the top, then it seems to spawn loads of mobs all of a sudden and then stops again. Why am I not being showered with tons of mob drops?

I don't think it's any kind of 'mob cap' - as I've seen suggested elsewhere, I'm the only person on the server. I have some hoppers and maybe 30 or so mobs (farm animals, villagers, etc) in my 'spawn chunks' (chunks around the map's spawn point) though - might this be causing mobs to spawn in those chunks even when I'm not there and reaching the mob cap? I didn't think mobs would spawn unless they're within 256 of the player.

Has Mojang nerfed these sorts of grinders?

texts:
In Minecraft, it's clear that enchanting at level 30 gives the maximum chance for the most and highest enchantments. However, is it always best to wait until that level of experience is accumulated before enchanting (and presumably avoiding doing anything but farming experience in the meantime), or will it be faster/better to enchant tools at lower levels in the meantime?

To make this concrete: if I have 15 levels and no enchanted tools, is it better to:

work with unenchanted tools and save the levels until I get to 30
enchant some tools with what I've got, and use those until they break, accumulating back up to 30 along the way
go fight some monsters and accumulate XP in another way, and use that to enchant tools at the highest level

?

I'm not just interested in the best final tools for their own sake, but in getting there most efficiently.

texts:
I am leveling up my hunter rank and I just recently only hit level 5. A major downside about taking on hunts is that you can only accept one at a time, which is very time consuming and causes it to take FOREVER to increase.

When going from town to town, I came across a Behemoth hunt at the Chocobo Ranch that required a level 8 hunter rank. It has taken me quite a while to reach level 5 - and it will take even longer to reach level 8 - and I am debating if it is even worth taking the time to increase it that high.

Aside from completing the hunts that give the most stars, are there any tricks to speeding up this process? Or am I stuck in a continual loop of going back-and-forth?

texts: Can you control the garbage rows in some way?

texts:
When garbage rows are sent your way, they sometimes have the gap in the same place, allowing you to clear up to four rows at once with a single line piece. Other times however, the gaps are scattered in different places, meaning you have to clear the rows one after the other to carve your way down.

When does this happen? Can I somehow influence the garbage rows to have the gap at the same place? Or is this just the result of a single player sending me all their garbage?


texts: ZvZ, how do I defend against 6-pool with a Spine Crawler?

texts:
I'm in Gold.

In Zerg vs. Zerg, normally I'm fine against a 6-Pool rush when just Zerglings are sent - I defend with some Drones, get out a Spine Crawler, and soon after roll over my opponent who has crippled his economy.

However, I just lost twice in a row to some players who quickly brought a Drone in and started building a Spine Crawler on my creep, then moved in with Zerglings soon after.  When I would attempt to attack the Zerglings with my Drones, they would pull back and the Spine Crawler would hit the Drones. The second time, I did successfully get down 3 Spine Crawlers of my own which defended well, but the cost was high and my opponent actually was in an advantageous position and was eventually able to win.

I guess I could just build my Spawning Pool earlier than normal (I usually build it around 13-14) but that'd be something of a waste if my opponent isn't actually rushing.

The Spine Crawler comes in pretty dang early, like before I would normally send a scout.  Should I be scouting much faster, like my first Drone or something?

Would attacking the Spine Crawler while it is building help?  If so, how many Drones would it take to ensure its demise without destroying my income?

What's the best way to beat this rush and still come out on top?

texts:
In the vein of Are inter-racial marriages frowned upon? - Pete Hines, Bethesda's VP of PR and Marketing, when asked if Skyrim would support gay marriage said the following:

  You can marry anyone...Not any NPC, just mean any male or female.

So obviously some NPCs are off the list.  I assume I can't marry Jarl Balgruuf, but what about Irileth?  What about the Graybeards?  What about already-married NPCs?  Is it any "important" NPC, or is it more or less than that?

Has the Skyrim Creation Kit shed any light on how to determine this?

texts: Do rivers cause eco-damage in Side Meier's Alpha Centauri?

texts:
Looking at a wiki page, I see that condensers, which cause rain, cause eco-damage.

Using that logic, I should be afraid to "drill to aquifer" and create a new river. However, the same page does not mention any eco-damage.

Can anyone cite a reference as to whether "drill to aquifer" causes eco-damage or not?


texts:
When a patient is fully diagnosed and about to be cured, a "cure percentage chance" is displayed. This ranges from 20% up to 99%. Assuming the number is accurate, I want to find out how exactly this number is determined. So I'm interested in the formula, not the general description, that part I know of; since here's some factors that have empirically been verified to affect it:

Inherent disease difficulty. Grout (the easiest disease) always has a 99% rate, while a very hard disease like Touch of Midas can go down to 20 percent.
Staff skill level in "cure". This is determined by a combination of Seniority (each point giving a 10% skill bonus) and happiness/energy for another 20% boost for a happy, energized doctor or nurse.
Machines. Level 2 and 3 machines increase the percentage.
Room objects such as medicine cabinets.
A cap at 99%.

Exactly how to take the variables and calculate the percentage is unclear to me.

This is valuable information to figure out if I can say give "Stamina Training" to a doctor instead of another level of "Cure" while still reaching 99%, or how many diagnosis levels I can get away with in the DNA room while still curing a reasonable amount of patients.

texts: How do I create a redstone circuit whose output depends on it's previous input?

texts:
I have two inputs, A and B, and I want them to perform as so:

|------------|-----------|--------|
| Prev State | New State | Output |
| A    B     | A   B     |        |
|---------------------------------|
| 0    0     | 0   1     | 1      |
| 0    1     | 0   0     | 0      |
| 0    1     | 1   1     | 1      |
| 1    1     | 0   1     | 0      |
|---------------------------------|

Basically an OR gate works for everything, unless, the previous state was both on, then it needs to be off. Any ideas?

I'm making a light sensor based off of Etho's grass design, and in order to improve its speed, I want to make multiple sensors, and combine their inputs into one.

SOLUTION

Even though QAdley's answer is the solution to my logic table, it doesn't scale well for multiple inputs.  Here is my solution using MBraedley suggestion, substituting the light detector for levers.

In this picture, each lever has both a rising and falling edge detector. All 4 of the rising edge detectors are joined together to form a single output, and all 4 of the falling edge detectors form another.

In this second picture, I use the two outputs as inputs into an RS NOR Latch.  The only gotcha is that I had to include a repeater with 2 tics to make the reset input pulse long enough to actually make the NOR Latch work.  Then I put an inverter at the end to turn the light on when any switch is turned on, and turn the light off when any switch is turned off.

Thanks everyone for your help, and if you see anything I can improve, let me know!


texts: Do Blupees drop more money if you do more damage to them?

texts:
At the beginning of the game, whenever I saw a Blupee and shot it with my Bokoblin bow, I recall that it would drop a couple of low-value rupees (green and blue, mostly). Now that I've played for a bit, I'm using a Savage Lynel Bow that does 40 damage per arrow - nearly 4 times the damage of my beginner bows. I've also noticed that the Rupee drops from the Blupees seem higher - now I get blues, reds, and even purples sometimes.

Does a higher damage bow make the Blupees drop more Rupees, or is this just confirmation bias on my part? Or perhaps they simply drop more Rupees as the game progresses?

Without getting into anything too spoilerific, I've made it to a point in the game that I am trying to find a tear in the Columbia Bank. Convieniently, I've also already found the code book I need for the encrypted message near the back of the bank, so the spoils are practically handed to me!

As I'm looting the stash, I noticed a lockpick's bag at the back of the desk.

I try to grab it, and nothing happens. I try to grab it from all sorts of angles until I give up and decide it's just part of the scenery. On my way back out, I discover another bag.

Again, more lockpicks that I want so badly to shove in my pockets, but the game seems to prefer to taunt me with them as scenery. That would have been the end of it as I was planning on moving on, until Elizabeth opened her big mouth and pointed each of them out so I could go pick up those lockpicks!

Obviously these picks are meant to be picked up after all! For some reason, I don't seem to be able to do so. Is the game bugged or perhaps some kind of evil, twisted trolling? How do I pick up all those lockpicks?!

Tested this three times, found the same result each time. After Steam goes offline and you attempt to play XCOM 2, keyboards dont work whatsoever. I can't use Q & E to rotate, use TAB to switch between soldiers, and right click does nothing, so I cannot move soldiers. I can't hit ESC to load a save, and I can't change elevation.

To clarify, this occurs regardless if:

Steam is in Offline Mode
Steam is in Online mode (but has lost internet connection)

And the game is running pure vanilla, with no mods.

texts: Program-controlled keyboard & mouse inputs don't work with Mass Effect 1

texts:
I use a program called DS2Key which allows me to control my computer with my Nintendo DS Lite. I typically use this setup to play GameCube games with Dolphin (my 'cube has long since died), but I'm trying to get it to work with other games- it works best with console ports, for obvious reasons. It works by simulating keypresses and mouse movements- it says it has PPJoy gamepad emulation support, but that doesn't seem to actually work.

Mass Effect 1, however, does not seem to like its inputs being controlled by another program. When ME1 is in the foreground, the computer does not respond to DS button presses or mouse movements. It works fine if I Alt-Tab to minimize the game, but I lose control again when I switch back.

Does anyone have any idea why this is, and how it can be fixed?

and im trying to do the "10 points per hit with this tutorial :
http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/minecraft-discussion/redstone-discussion-and/2085104-command-block-point-for-each-it

I noticed this is a post from 2013 and wonder if it is outdated.
On the first page there is a video which is the main thing i followed and that's the exact same way i tried to do it on the second tutorial. If you can help that would be amazing thanks!

texts: Sending Minecraft audio to different output device?

texts:
When I play Minecraft, I sometimes connect my TV and play a video (a TV show or a YouTube video) and I set the default output device to the TV speakers, but I don't want Minecraft audio to merge with that. I would rather have it come out of the PC speakers.

Is there a way to change the output device for just the one program or to change the output device with Java?

texts: Using /setblock to get a command block with a command inside?

texts:
I'm trying to use command blocks for my next creation, but I'm making it so that command blocks make it for me when I press a button. However, I need to have a command that once placed in a command block, it will place another command block with a command already in it (when given a redstone signal, that is).
I'm on Education Edition, so only the Bedrock Edition type of command style will work -  Java Edition won't. I have looked for a command that does this, but I can not find one.

texts: Does touching a piece of equipment make it "visible" to others?

texts: I am aware that others can not normally see your loot drops, and that if you pick something up normally into your inventory and then drop it, others can see/take it.  What happens when you touch an item on the ground, but your inventory is full.  Does it become visible for others to see (or steal)?


texts: Can someone explain the Xbox 360 version's battle results screen in more detail?

texts:

In particular

Performance tab: Detected vs Spotted.
Round tab: The columns with the numbers in them.

texts:
I did a playthrough with a friend: he (orange knight) spent his whole experience in strength, while I (red knight) spent mine in magic.  Most of time, magic seemed to deal more damages, but it was pretty hard to hit several enemies at once.
Even if, most of the time, I killed more enemies than he did, he always gained more experience than I did (sometimes, almost twice more).

I already know that the Giraffey pet can help to level up faster (10% xp bonus), but above that, which choices can help to level up fast ?  Are there any easier characters for that (with area magic skills, for instance) ?  Is strength a better investment than magic ?

Regarding the red knight, I've read that the he was much appreciated for his "Lightning Hold" attack that can "splash damage", but it seemed really hard to perform: you have to be on the exact same Y axe than your targets to make it work...

texts: Can any of Batman's gadgets knock enemies unconscious?

texts:
While Batman is not actively engaged in combat with enemies (Predator mode, Stealth, etc.), do any of the gadgets alone or possibly a combination of gadgets allow Batman to knock an ememy unconcious? I'm assuming no from what I've tried, but just wanted to see if I was missing anything.

Edit: I guess I should state, besides using the disruptor along with a proximity mine laid by the enemy.

If it isn't possible to gift a game on Origin, are there any alternate methods to achieve a similar outcome?


texts: Call of Duty: Black Ops vs Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 - CoDPoints vs Unlocking

texts: From what I understand, all unlocks are obtained in Black Ops through purchasing with CoD Points, which are obtained from leveling. In Modern Warfare 2, unlocks are available by getting certain amounts of kills with certain weapons. Which is a better system for a completionist? Will the CoD Points system restrict me from getting every weapon, perk, etc. in the game? Does prestige reset both your weapons and CoD Points?


texts: Why don't the scuzzers pick up all the cargo containers in Startopia?

texts: In Startopia I noticed that the scuzzers often won't pick up cargo that's been made by factories even when there are dozens of scuzzers on the engineering deck. It might be because I handled the cargo. Also, they leave some of the cargo to rot on the biodeck. Is there a way get them to pick up everything? Is there a way to know what isn't going to be picked up?

What changes do I need to make such that I can have more than one train operating on the loop simultaneously?

texts: How do I save/backup Halo (Combat Evolved) configuration and player saved checkpoints?

texts:
So yes, if you read the title it IS Halo: Combat evolved, got it a few months ago.

It's time now to re-install and re-organize everything on my machine, so that would mean whacking everything very soon. I need to save my player checkpoints. I mean, I don't want to lose the checkpoints I've passed.

I have Win7 x64 and I see this path has something like savedgames :

C:\Users\<user>\Documents\My Games\Halo

Is this only it? Do I only need to copy this folder or are there others?


texts: Does the cost of an item change its usefulness?

texts:
In Sims 3, you're shown some attributes for the items you can buy. For instance, the "oTron" computer has "Fun: 7" but the next most expensive machine also has "Fun: 7" but is a lot more expensive.

Are there any other attributes that will have changed? Or is it just aesthetic?


texts: DxTory recording issue - broken data rate

texts:
I am attempting to record a video ( 720px ) at 30 fps. I have recorded videos like this before without any issue, typically getting 60+ fps while recording. Today however I'm getting 7-8 fps. I have tried to restart my computer. I have even tried recording at 240px and at 10 fps video, and I still get 7-8 fps.

I check my video file and find it to have 1.28 Gb/s data-rate. If my math is correct, a 720px video should be:

1280x720 = 921600 pixels
Each pixel is RGB so that's 3 bytes per pixel = 2,764,800 bytes (2.7 MB)
30 FPS = 2.7x30 = 82,944,000 MB/s
8 bits per byte so 82 Megabytes is 663.552 Megabits/s. So DxTory is writing 2x the data for the video.

When I recorded at 240px at 10 fps, the data-rate was the same, even though that would only be 73.612 Megabits/s

The result is the same regardless of the video Codec I select. Recording to rawcap instead of AVI gives me up to 18 fps instead of 8, however the same issue exists.

I can post specific information (like environment data) if requested.

Does anyone have any idea why/how this could be occurring?


texts: What buildings should I place inside a wall?

texts: I now have the ability to build walls, and they seem to be of strategic importance whenever I play against the computer.  I've yet to be attacked by any other players, but I feel that is coming soon and I'd like to minimize my losses.  I don't have enough wall to fully enclose my camp, so I need to decide what goes inside and what goes out.  Which buildings should I prioritize?


texts: Why is the Team Fortress 2 install so huge?

texts:
I notice that Team Fortress 2 is almost 10 gigs when downloaded via Steam.

texts: What does a skill next to a conversation action mean?

texts: Some of the conversations and actions you can take with other persons have skill icons on them. For example cooking, charisma, etc. What does that mean?

texts: World edit unable the change biome in a specific world

texts:
Im building on a skyblock map and i need to change the biome to different biomes on different islands! I have installed world edit and i tryied to use the //setbiome command and it doesnt work!
But then when i tested it in another world it worked! My first idea was that it just wasn´t able to change the_void biome so i created a new world with the same settings and everything and it worked in that world.
But i still cant get it to work in the world i actually need it to work in! I have tested other things to like selecting a smaller and bigger area, not standing in the area, restarting the game, killing all entities in the area but nothing fix it :(
Do you have an idea what the problem may be?  (Java 1.16.1)
Edit
After doing some more testing i found that it have something to do with the datapacks/commands i have in the world. When i installed the same datapacks in another world it stop working in that world to! But even if you remove the datapack files it still dont work. My only idea how i can fix this is by using structure block to load all my buildings in to a brand new world and change the biomes before i install all datapacks to that world!

texts: Can ilvl 59-60 items compete with ilvl 61-63 items?

texts:
With 1.0.5, items now roll affixes based off of the level of the monster that dropped them, rather than based off of the ilvl of the item.

However, I'm not exactly sure that I understand what this means.

Does this mean that an ilvl 59 amulet dropped by a level 63 monster will have the exact same range of possible values that an ilvl 62 amulet dropped by the same monster?

How about items with base stats that vary by ilvl, such as armor, weapons, or off-hand gear?  Will the base stats prevent ilvl 59 from being competitive with ilvl 63?

Should I continue to only pick up rares that are ilvl 61-63, or should I start picking up all rares that drop when I play Inferno on higher MP levels?  Or should I pick up ilvl 61-63 armor and weapons, but all rings and amulets?


texts:
I've been playing quite a lot of Gnar recently since I find him lots of fun, trying to take care of his passive and everything. None is left unsurprised once I jump on them in Mega form and I knock them back on the wall. I tried a couple of builds on him but I think it's always worth to try a new one.

The first item I build on him 90% of the time is Trinity Force. Phage gives me a real sweet speed to keep throwing AA's on my enemy until I proc my passive and repeat that circle again. Sheen helps me mostly in my Mega form. I use an ability, AA, another one, AA and so on. So I find Trinity Force a real strong item for him.

I never tried it so far but I'm wondering if Frozen Mallet is a viable second item to build on him considering the slow it gives to the enemy which will make it easier for me to keep up with the enemy and keep auto attacking him until I proc my passive on W and repeat that process with the speed boost I'll get.

You might tell me that I focus too much on my Mini form while in teamfights I should be mostly in my Mega form. Well, those are only the two first items. They will hopefully help me in the laning phase, take some kills and get ahead. That's my thought behind them.

texts:
Do source engine based games (in my case Portal 2) have a console command to display the public IP steam will use e.g. when inviting someone for coop?

Please do not suggest me windows commands like ipconfig or one of the "get my ip" websites; I know very well how to find out my current public IP. What I'm looking for is an easy way to debug why steam suddenly started to use my private (192.162.*) IP instead of the public one. And displaying the IP steam uses would be much easier than asking someone to try to join my game and then check his console for the ip.


texts: how do you make elimination races in GTA V

texts:
I'm currently using a Moze splash damage build, and I just acquired the "Atom Balm Commander Planetiod" Legendary artifact, which increases the "Aura burst radius" of radiation damage.

Does this count as splash damage with regards to Moze's skills? Should I be using this artifact, or does "Aura burst" not proc any of Moze's skills that proc with dealt splash damage?

Additionally, I also have another relic that sports a "+33% Area-Of-Effect Damage" modifier- does this also effect elemental "Aura burst?"

texts: Keep minecraft book opened after click event

texts:
I am creating a tabletop RPG map and I'm using books to display the player's current status, but as soon as the player activates a click event on the book the book closes. This is a problem because the book displays plus and minus buttons next to a multi-digit number and I need the player to be able to freely click and adjust the value without the book closing.
Is there a way to prevent books from closing on activating a JSON click event?


texts: Raising commercial/residential wealth in SimCity? When should I do this?

texts:
I always seem to get stuck here. I'll have a TON of residential areas, like, literally the entire map full. But the "low" residential demand just keeps going super high. And I literally just do not have the space to put any more down.

I've heard the ratio 3:1:1 for R:I:C as far as the "golden ratio". Is this still true? Also, am I possibly upgrading my residential communities too fast? (AKA by placing parks and such).

I get constant complaints about jobs. But I think I'm maybe trying to progress too fast. Is it ideal to sort of move "all" resedential areas up "value"-wise, or sort of keep sections segregated (AKA have high/low/medium residential areas, but keep them segregated).

For reference, I'm going with an electronics specialization.


texts: For several pokémon I found their evolutions in the wild. For example Tentacruel, Raticate and Pidgeotto. I was wondering if Gyarados maybe is an exception because of the exceptional  high evolve cost of Magikarp? I can imagine that they really want you to evolve a Magikarp in this case. So, has anyone found a wild one yet?


texts: How do I build mastery pages for general use?

texts: When I first started playing LoL I read quite a few guides on Mobafire, and made my mastery pages based on those. I managed to make up to twenty (the current max) mastery pages, and now I can't make anymore. So clearly I need to start making my mastery pages for more generalized use (jungle/tank/etc), so how should I begin to do that, and how should I categorize?

texts: Remove or skip the Initialisation process in Forge 1.7.10?

texts:
In the new version of Forge (1.7.10) it spends time "Initialising mods.." etc. The problem is, this process is so slow. The 1.6.4 version was perfect! No loading bars or anything, just the Mojang logo and then you jumped into Minecraft.

My Macbook is a 2008 one and I can run Minecraft with no problems, but this new 1.7 forge is very annoying. It'd be ok if it happened only once, but every time I open it, it loads like it's installing the mods afresh.

Is there any way of configuring it so it can be more like version 1.6, or to skip the check/initialisation step (and thus remove the wait time)?


texts: In Terraria, how do you kill the twins if your Vampire Knives or Legendary Terra Blade won't destroy them?

Note: if it is important, I have hallowed armor, every NPC housed and I play Xbox 1/console


texts: Any way to edit game files to revert a flight in KSP?

texts: I was showing my friend what Kerbal Space Program was all about, and I wanted to launch a quick mission to the Mun and land so I could EVA just to show him the massive scale of the game. When I got to the Mun, as soon as my rocket touched down, I got an error saying the game had crashed. I figured oh well, I never quick saved so not a big deal, but then I went back in to my save and for some reason it quick saved right before colliding with the Mun. Is there any way to revert this flight in the game files? I'm OK with losing the money spent on the rocket itself, but I don't really want to lose Bob due to this.

texts:
I have a Dell Studio laptop with Intel Core 2 Duo 2.8 GHz processor, 4 GB Ram, 512 MB ATI Raedon Graphics Card and 500 GB HDD with Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. I was checking my shelf for old games and came across Quake 3 Arena. Though its more than a decade old now, I'm still a big fan.

I tried installing this game by double-clicking the setup.exe file but nothing happens. I can see that the process is listed in the processes tab of task manager but in vain. I don't see anything happening.

Assuming that this could be because I'm installing an old game on a 64-bit machine, I tried to change the compatibility to Windows XP Service Pack 3/Service Pack 2. Nothing seems to help.

Has anyone encountered this problem before?

Currently, I'm just not listing PSN games because I don't really have any way to identify them.

For example, is there some sort of ID number for Okabu, which can only be bought and downloaded from the PlayStation Store?

Only option is Windowed mode with Warcraft 3, but the tablet can't handle 2048x1536 resolution fluently, so I would have to change my desktop resolution anytime I want to play it. Also you can not really move around the map in the game by touching the side with mouse, as it is in windowed mode.

Funny think also is, that it displays rotated, but the controls (or touch input) reacts as it is displayed correctly. From my investigation it seems to be DirectX 8 related problem and that games that runs on higher DirectX are ok.

I also tried compatibility mode, disable scaling, different resolutions but without any success. Since I did not found the solution I decided to create this question.

EDIT:
My girlfriend bought this netbook recently. It has the same processor as my Onda, so I tried some game on her tablet. I actually only tried Warcraft 3, but there was no problem with screen rotation. So it might be an error specific only to my ONDA tablet, or maybe I have some bad GPU drivers or something like that. Still no sollution though :(

Examples:

Warcraft 3 can run in portrait mode:


texts: Are level requirements enforced in DS3 with a password?

texts:
In bloodborne, if you set a password you could summon or be summoned by someone with the same password, regardless of level difference.

I've only seen this mentioned as being possible in ds3 on one sight out of numerous i've encountered.  However, yesterday I was not successful in my friend finding my summon sign on a much higher level character using a password.  I know we were able to group with the password, as I was able to jump on my lower level character and he'd find me immediately (with the same password).

Has anyone had experience with this?  Are you able to group with a password regardless of level difference?  Could I have just had bad luck with this attempt?


texts: What rewards, if any, are there for completing the Age of Empires II: HD Edition campaigns on Hard?

texts:
I just completed the first mission of the Joan of Arc campaign on Hard, but after restarting the game, I can't see any sign of the difficulty level at all. Is the difficulty level completed visible anywhere? Does it render some other reward or achievement? I am playing Age of Empires II: The Forgotten, for what it's worth.

I'm not interested in the in-match differences of the difficulty levels, as this question seems to treat that issue.


texts:
I'm trying to complete my collection through D100 spam. I've gotten to Womb II, however, and my build seems to have stopped changing. I did unlock a few other items this way (such as The Body), but Godhead remains uncollected.

Can the D4 or D100 give me Godhead?


texts: World bosses and rare spawns: static or random?

texts:
I noticed while levelling yesterday that in the Kun-Lai Summit region of Pandaria, the Sha of Hatred was wandering around just north of the Eastery Rest.

It seemed to walk around in a large circle, very much like a pre-defined path for the several hours I was in the zone completing quests. In addition to seeing this big hulking monster, it seemed like the rare/champion enemies we ran into while levelling were scattered quite consistently over the landscape, resulting in us getting the 'Can we find more like that?' achievement for killing them all.

This lead me to thinking, are the rare spawns and world boss spawns pre-defined for specific parts of the world, or are they randomly generated, leaving all of my observations down to being the first through the zone with all the spawns up?


texts: How does Heroes of Might & Magic 3 choose which music to play at the beginning of a battle?

texts:
There are eight different short audio clips played at the beginning of every battle in HoMM III. The corresponding file names are battle0{0..7}.wav (contained in one of the .snd archives).

How does the game choose which one to play: is it random, or does it depend on the battle terrain / other factors?

texts: Does damage to a worker impact the time it takes to complete an improvement?

texts:
Due to the Miasma, many of my units in the early game take light damage if simply because its difficult to see what tiles have Miasma (lol).   Before the research of Alien Biology, which grants workers immunity to Miasma, a worker can take a few random dings of 10% damage.

So that got me wondering, does damage have any impact on a workers performance?

Is there a benefit beyond survivability to fully healing a worker before starting improvements?

texts: When is the Pokemon from an egg determined?

texts:
Is the Pokemon that will hatch from an egg determined when the player first obtains the egg from a Pokestop, or when the egg hatches?

It seems like it would make more sense for the Pokemon to be determined as the egg is hatching so this information does not need to be stored, but I have observed that eggs from Pokestops in more populated areas yield better Pokemon than those from Pokestops in smaller towns. Does anyone have any thoughts on this?


texts: Where should I place water treatment plants in Simcity 4?

texts:
I have an industrial city that needs several water treatment plants due to the high amount of water pollution it produces. I've never been quite sure what the best placement for water treatment plants, or their exact workings is.

Anywhere? (if they just affect the entire cities water supply)
Near the source of the pollution? (if they stop its production)
Or near the water source?

texts: Factors to consider what to request to defend your base

texts:
Some generous person in my clan donated a l2 dragon to my clan castle (I'm not even high enough level to get one). Sadly he wasn't much help when the attacker used healing potion on the archers.

What is good to request for defence? I think archers because they can attack against air. It's kind of hard because I would like a mix but people donating don't know what you have, for example I'd like 1 healer and the rest archers or wizards.

Side question: Who sent the telegram?

When I approach them, a red message is displayed that says something like "cannot be used during combat."  This made me think that there might be a straggler enemy to deal with, so I ran back to the Salty Oyster Bar and checked, but didn't find anyone.


texts: Are all units in cover really covered in CoH?

texts:
Units in Company of Heroes can be in various kinds of cover. For instance, if the "green cover" symbol appears above a unit group's flag, it means the group is in heavy cover and is hard to hit.

However, does this mean that the whole group (any unit in that group) is really in green cover? For instance, is it possible that even though a group's flag shows the green cover symbol only part of its units are really covered while one or two of them are in yellow or no cover?


texts: How to use the HORI Real Arcade Pro EX stick for Xbox 360 in WinKawaks?

texts:
Currently I got my hands on the WinKawaks, and tried to hook up the HRAP EX stick on my computer, after done some homework on Google, I found this link on shoryuken forum, I followed the route there and installed the XBCD, and the stick is properly listed as HRAP EX in my Windows device manager, also the pressing of the buttons can be correctly registered in the gaming controller configuration.

However in WinKawaks, the 7(up-left) is constantly registered as input, in KOF99, the character I control would always jump to the left end of the arena once the fight begins, I wonder is this a problem with WinKawaks not being able to use the correct driver? or there is a problem with the driver itself? Has anyone successfully use HRAP EX stick in an emulator?


texts: Is there a way to NOT share gaming statistics with friends on Steam?

texts:

However, I dislike the fact that steam exposes my entire gaming history to all my friends - for example, the amount of hours I spent with each of my games.

I tried searching but could not find how to prevent it, is there a way?

texts: How do you get the ship targeting system to lock on, specifically target that leads enemy ships?

texts:
I recently found a crashed ship that had an extra slot and some better tech installed so I excitedly scrapped all my ship upgrades, transferred my loot and set about repairing the new ship.

It was a fairly modest upgrade from 18 slots to 19 but it did have a sweet warp drive sigma installed. I dismantled some of the phase beam upgrades and replaced them with the same photon cannon upgrades that I installed on my previous 2 ships. They were +1 impact damage, +1 cooldown and +1 accelerated fire.

This was all going well until, several systems later, I encountered some pesky pirates attacking a poor, helpless Gek trading ship. I immediately boosted over there and set about rescuing the innocent traders only to realise that the new ship was unable to lock on to the enemy ships! I still have the 3 white markers that highlight the ship but they would not lock on, which meant the target that leads the ship did not appear. This happened automatically, as soon as I started to fire my photon cannon, on both my previous ships.

This made actually hitting the ships extremely difficult and I wasn't able to take the pirates down before I ran out of resources to keep my shield up and thus ended the story of Gen 5.

Upon the birth of Gen 6, I was unable to figure out how or why the targeting system was missing from my new ship. It is not mentioned in the description of any of the ship systems or upgrades I currently know.

Did I experience a bug or am I missing an upgrade that allows the targeting system to function?

Edit: I am using patch 1.08 on PS4.

texts: Does anything slow down or reset running speed?

texts:
As I run, I notice things slowly speed up - which is to be expected.  Naturally at some point this makes things very challenging.  I've logged some 1 mil+ runs, and I'm wondering: Are there ways to slow down?  I'm interested, as I think slowing down could increase my maximum run distance.  Bearing in mind that I am more interested in how fast pixels are moving, as opposed to how fast in meters the game claims I am going.  Things that seem to slow me down:

Tripping
Dying and respawning
Using a speed power-up
Using a head start

Do these things really have an effect on my speed, or is that just in my head?

texts: How does the Ethereal's damage reflection work?

texts:
The Ethereal alien species has a rather annoying habit of blocking and reflecting shots fired by my soldiers. I expected to gleam some insight as to how this ability works after performing an autopsy on one, but was rather surprised not to see anything related to this ability when examining an Ethereal in the unit analysis view (it had quite a few abilities though, so it's possible, though improbable, that I missed the description despite looking for it).

So how does this ability work? Is it related to the range at which the shot is taken (I've never seen them block a sniper's shot)? Is there simply some random percentage for a shot to be blocked? Is flanking a factor?

texts: Dragon Age Origins and Dragon Age 2 Alistair (spoilers)

texts:
Alright, ill start off with my choices in DAO. This playthrough (combined with what happened in DA2) puzzled my mind.

I think for the first time ever i didn't take alistair with me to the Archdemon, i took with me Morrigan, Zevran and Leliana, so he's left to defend the gate. When you kill the archdemon (i did the dark ritual with morrigan and gave the throne to Anora) and Queen Anora speaks to you in the throne room alistair isn't there. And she also says we should honor those who were fallen in battle and she specifically mentions alistair as well. As he is not in the room and we should honor him, he must be dead right?

Well i could live with that. Except now that i'm playing DA2 with that imported save file.

End of Act 2, the Qunari invade Kirkwall you come across a group of Grey Wardens. And suddenly, Alistair is there.

He doesn't mention anything from the blight in Ferelden so we can't make up anything from that.

Here is the codex entry i received after meeting him:

It says he's credited alongside the Hero of Feleden.

Did i just encounter a bug in DA:O where Alistair was supposed to be with me? Or did the save file from DA:O to DA:2 simply not include this?

The latter would seem really bad on biowares part.


texts: Afterglow Xbox 360 Controller no longer works on PC?

I recently got an Afterglow Xbox 360 controller for use on my PC. Worked fine for a few weeks. Leave it overnight. Go to work. Come back. Controller doesn't work. Fidget around with it. None of the buttons work. It still lights up and the Xbox LED is still working but none of the buttons work.

Before you give me the usual suggestion of ''installing drivers'' and ''Checking if its plugged correctly''. Trust me. I have done all this, and this controller required no drivers in the first place. I was playing need for speed last night with it just fine.

Well off course Echantress has this amazing eponymous skill (where she could dominate even illus, if my mem'ry serves me right), but the description strictly says that if the target is a hero, it would slow the target instead. Is this some sort of bug or am I missing something?

texts: Reliably mix 3 ingredients for a factory

texts:
I have a line of Inserter assemblers, and I need to feed them cogs, circuits, and iron plates. I decided to mix the cogs and circuits on one side of the belt, and have the iron plates on the other side:

This works well providing there aren't any shortages up the line. If one side of the cogs develops a shortage (so there are only cogs on one side of the belt feeding into the "combining splitter"), then the ratio of circuits:cogs gets messed up, and the ingredient loop in the bottom right gets plugged up with circuits. To get the system going again, I need to manually pick up the ingredients plugging it up, and let it continue on:

I tried using a filter arm to pick out circuits, but they're too fast, and end up taking way too many off, then I have the problem of cogs plugging everything up.

How can I reliably mix 3 to 4 ingredients on a single belt, and maintain the correct ratio (one cog per circuit in this case), even during shortages?


texts: Screen is not being repainted while playing windowframe for PC

texts:
While playing the game windowframe, I am having a problem where the game screen is not being repainted properly.

As I understand it, the little game window is supposed to follow your character around the screen as you traverse the maze. (Actual behavior is pictured below.)

When I use ALT + TAB, or switch windows and come back, or drag other windows over top of windowframe, the area is repainted properly.

This really is impacting game play, as much of the spirit of the game is lost due to being able to see more expansive portions of the map than intended.

(Graphics drivers are up-to-date. Currently using Nvidia GeForce 388.59 on Windows 7 x64. Have checked several different Windows 7 desktops/laptops, and all exhibit the same issue.)

texts: Which strands in Splice are potential Angelics?

texts:
In Splice, some strands are considered "Potential Angelics", and can be solved in fewer than the alloted moves.

Not all strands can be Angelic, however, and as far as I can see, the only way to tell if a strand is angelic or not is after completing it, where the post-level menu has a "Potential Angelic" moniker if the strand can be angelic.

As I'd rather not have to recomplete all the levels to see which strands I've yet to achieve angelic status on, I was hoping there was some way of identifying these strands from the main menu.

texts: How to switch between first and third person perspective with one button in World of Warcraft?

texts:
I find myself switching back and forth between first and third person perspective frequently in World of Warcraft in order to take a good screenshot or to get a better view of a distant object. To switch to first person perspective I have to keep scrolling my scroll wheel to zoom the camera all the way in, and to switch back I have to reverse scroll all the way back.

I tried using the "Save View / Set View" function that is natively supported, but there are two problems:

"Save View" not only saves the camera distance, but also saves the camera angle. So while my camera is looking upward and I want to get a better view of a flying creature, pressing the "Set View" button will bring my camera to look forward.
Although the desired camera distance in 1st-person view is always 0, in 3-person view the desired camera distance varies. Selecting the saved 3-person view will force me to use the camera distance used when the view is saved.

Is there a solution that allows me to press one button to switch between first and third person perspective, like the 1st-/3rd-person buttons do in many third person shooters?

Moderator Note: For iOS instructions, see here.

On the PC, it's possible to set waypoints in XCOM 2 using the ctrl key.
Is it possible to do the same on the PS4 / Xbone versions and if so how do you do it?


texts: Which ghastproof block is easiest to obtain renewably in the Nether?

texts:
I'm building a humongous base in the Nether. Because of its size, it would be impractical to go for resources to normal world over and over, and I don't want to build portals everywhere, so I'm searching for alternatives. The resource I'm looking for must be immune to ghast fireball explosions (blast resistance of minimum 16.5 as the wiki says) and possible to obtain renewably in large quantities in the Nether.

For example, a block of emerald would do, because even though you need a villager from the normal world, you can trade with him for emeralds in the Nether once you teleport him there.
The block must be renewable in the Nether, so for example cobblestone is ruled out because it requires water and lava to be made, and water cannot be placed in the Nether.
The easier the block is obtainable in large quantities only from renewable methods, the better.
The version I'm asking this question for is 1.14.4, so ignore the planned nether update when it comes to answers.

Which of the blocks of Minecraft would best fulfill those criteria?

texts: Placing and destroying blocks using Minecraft commands

texts:
I wanted to mess with some basic commands and one of the commands that I have heard of quite frequently was one that gives someone an item than can break and place entities, blocks or items.

I have looked at some ways to write it and I use this as an example for giving myself a block of stone that can be placed on a chest:

/give Steve stone{CanPlaceOn:["chest"]}

...but it ends up not working. Can someone explain to me why?
