texts: At which point does a game count towards my stats?

texts:
Let's say my career best in eliminations is 20. Then I play a game from the start and I do 21 eliminations, but I disconnect before VICTORY/DEFEAT appears. Will my career best now be 20 or 21? Will my averages change? What about if I disconnect after VICTORY/DEFEAT, but before the stats appear?

At what point exactly do my stats get modified?


texts: Is there a way to bet more than 9999 medals?

texts:
In the coliseum, you can bet on monster fights.

With the results of your bets, you can get an engine that does not consume gas (giving infinite gas)

Thing is, that engine is 3.7 million medals (from memory, can't see the exact number), so even if you bet and win the max amount every time, it's gonna be a while. The counter only has 4 digits, making the max bet 9999 medals.

Is there a way to upgrade and make bigger bets and advance faster?

texts: Can you profit on the stock market from Friend Request?

texts:
This answer mentions that you can profit from investing at the right time with the right companies related to Lester's assassination missions as Franklin.

Friend Request is the first mission the player does with Lester and its description mentions how Lester will make bank as a shareholder when Jay Norris is assassinated -- it's unclear how, but it's a small detail not mentioned.

In the real world, Facebook (LifeInvader) and Twitter (Bleeter) are sort-of competitors because they are huge moguls in the same sector -- I imagine, if something drastic happened to one, the other might see an opposite reaction in its stock price.

Is this the case in GTA V too? If I buy stock in Bleeter (or a LifeInvader competitor, if there's another), will its price go up for a profit?

I plan to test this and write an answer, but I may as well ask first, in case anyone else knows.


texts: Does the Fallout 4 1.03 patch fix the glitches related to infinite building?

texts:
Can someone who has installed the 1.03 patch on console (PS4/Xbox One) verify this?

Specifically, there are two glitches that are necessary for building without limits:

Unlimited resources
This is done by emptying out a workshop and having only shipments in your inventory (at least 5). Then store all junk' and quickly 'take all' before the shipments turn into their raw materials. You may or may not be asked to confirm the take all so be ready to quickly confirm.
Unlimited build size
Drop a bunch of weapons and then enter workshop mode. Simply highlight a weapon and select 'store'. Lather, rinse, repeat and your build limit will gradually go down.

Basically if I can't do these glitches anymore then I know to avoid the patch.

I have read the release notes and they don't reference these glitches at all. At the same time, it doesn't mean the issues weren't patched. I am a software developer with public facing products myself and am very aware that sometimes a company doesn't disclose everything or changes get lost in translation.

That's why I'm looking for actual proof of someone that has installed the version 1.03 and can still do the glitches. I took time to write instructions for the glitches so someone could give it a try.

texts: Are horadric caches bound to the act they were acquired from?

texts:
Since the latest patches, horadric caches have been dropping the same quality of loot regardless of difficulty.

For example, say I want to farm for Gloves of Worship, an act2 bounty-only legendary. Would I be able to acquire it from an act4 horadric cache but that was opened in Act2?

Or would I have to, instead, farm bounties from Act2 or Act4 only?

texts: Build orders: What is the timeline & how much can each base support?

texts:
This is probably more relevant for Protoss and Terran players, and a similar Zerg question can be found here.

Obviously each build order is different, but you never see build orders which take you past 40-50 supply (and that's on the high side already). For instance, how long should you sit on 2-gates or 3-barracks prior to adding new ones when your build order is "2-gate" or "3-Rax" respectively?

In my own games I find that although I can execute the openers well, once I get out past 40-50 supply, I find myself adding more Gates or Robotics Facilities, because I want to get more units now, but I often wonder if sitting on 2-gates (just as an example) longer would result in a larger army and a stronger push because I would have more minerals/gas for units.

So, certainly unit composition being produced will have a significant effect, but what is the average number of Tier 1/Tier 2/Tier 3 buildings each base can support with saturated mineral/gas lines, and what is an indicator that I have too few of any of the tier 1/tier 2/tier 3 buildings and should add more when transitioning past the standard race specific build orders?

texts: How do the playable characters rank in terms of weight and resistance to knockback attacks?

texts:
I've read this Reddit /r/Borderlands post, 'Is it just me, or is Krieg "heavy"?' and its comments, and learned that Krieg is heavier than most (or all) of the other characters and more resistant to knockback attacks.

Quoting the related part of the post and some of the comments:

  I [playing as Krieg] can't grenade jump as high as with the other characters.
  ...that's just how Krieg works. His greater mass makes him largely resistant to knockback attacks, too, which is why he can go toe-to-toe with Loaders.
  It was stated by Paul Hellquist on the GBX forums in an Xbox support topic & a PC/Mac support topic:

    This is because we made Krieg's mass heavier than the other characters. The change was so that many of the enemies (notably the loaders) could not create situations where you could not be effective with Krieg's action skill because they would knock you back so far that you could not get a hit in on them when you closed to melee range.

    The unfortunate side effect is that the impulse on the geyser is not enough to get you up as far when you are playing Krieg. It was a trade well worth making since the entire character was frustrating and unfun before this change.

I would like to know: How do the other playable characters rank in terms of weight or knockback attack resistance? Are the rest pretty much the same, or are some characters, heavier than the others?


texts: Best way to earn Simoleons in SimCity Social?

texts:
As a long time SimCity 4 player, I am playing SimCity Social so as to wait for SimCity 5.
The game is not as casual as I thought a Facebook game would be, and my growth is kind of stagnant, having more land permits than Simoleons to expand.
So, I am looking for some verdicts on the various ways of earning Simoleons.

Cheap, frequent pay out business
Expensive, infrequent pay out business
Farm
Selling materials
Selling fame bought buildings

(Is that all?)

I know it also depends on your pattern of available time. What are some generic ways to factor that in?

texts: Are the starting conditions in Mass Effect 2 for PS3 the same as other platforms?

texts:
I was reading through the answers to the following questions:

Do I need to have played Mass Effect to enjoy Mass Effect 2?
Should I continue one of my Mass Effect playthroughs in Mass Effect 2 or start afresh?

And there's a compelling argument that not only should one play Mass Effect prior to Mass Effect 2, one should play it on the same platform so you can transfer your Mass Effect save and change the starting conditions of the game: from different (better?) backstories, to more characters being accessible, to better resources.

This is, of course, similar to other BioWare titles like Dragon Age II, where different quests are accessible depending on your actions from Dragon Age: Origins.

The problem is: there is no Mass Effect for PlayStation 3, so there's no way to import a save to unlock all the "New Game Plus"-esque features.

So when one starts a Mass Effect 2 game on PlayStation 3, is it any different than starting a clean new game on the PC or Xbox 360? Or is there a system like in Dragon Age II where you can select your backstory?

texts: In mid-battle leveling, does that mean you have to have revealed the whole map already?

texts:
I kinda get the point that what you simply do for say a level 10 boss is to:

attack boss until his next hit will kill you.
kill an enemy that will level you up(so you probably need to have 29/30 exp then kill a level 1 enemy)
attack boss again etc

I try this also but if you suddenly enter a space that you haven't explored yet, you do get the heal but the boss also heals(usually more than what i damaged him...so im back to square one)

Am i doing it right? should i had explored the whole map first and setup my mid-level battle? But that means i can't heal via map anymore and must rely on 2-4 health and mana potions. right?


texts: My children are useless. What should I do?

texts:
I've been playing King's Bounty for a while now and have picked myself up a wife.
I was very surprised when she asked me to have a child, but since I did not want to upset her (luckily I don't apply this game-logic in the real world) I went along with it.

So after a while I embraced a new virtual babe, which took up one of my wife's equipment slots and gave me space for 8 additional scrolls in my spellbook - rather useless. This process repeated itself to produce an even worse offspring granting me +4 scrolls. That's when I decided to stop having children.

Now from what I gathered from a good friend of mine who played quite a bit, children can actually give excellent bonuses so I'm just amazingly unlucky. He also said that the only way to start over is to replace my wife, but that the "divorce" would cost half my current gold.

The same friend told me that I should use up as much of my gold as possible to minimize my loss, but I don't see anything sensible to buy with my ~200K gold.

Is there any other way to split up with my current wife in a less painful manner? Is there a point in the game where really expensive and worthwhile things show up and I should just manage until there?

I'm not beyond editing my save files to alleviate this issue, so if you know how to do that, I'm game.

texts: What happens if I buy a game I own on Uplay, on Steam?

texts:
If I own a game, which requires Uplay, on Uplay, and buy the same game later on Steam, what will happen?

Here are a few of my thoughts of possible outcomes.

Will I get a key from Steam, which I cannot use, or need to register a new Uplay account to use it?
Will I be able to launch the game both ways? If so, will they be separate entries on Uplay?
Will Steam override the Uplay purchase so I can only use it from Steam?

To emphasize my actual question: I already know that if I own a Uplay title on Steam, I can only launch it through Steam, and vice-versa. What I'm interested in is what happens if I (accidentally) buy a Uplay title on Steam when I already own it on Uplay.

texts:
I went on a resource run with a Quetz, perched it on a cliff, and (I assume) it got attacked while I was exploring. It had a lot of health and melee damage, so I think it probably survived the fight and just landed somewhere in the forest. I've tried scouting the area with another flying mount, whistling and using a telescope as I search, but no luck so far. Sadly, it did not have a transponder attached.

With the recent advent of admin commands on console, I started wondering if there was a way to teleport that missing Quetz to my location, or reveal it on the map somehow. Is there any command or technique you can use to locate a nearby, but hidden, tamed dino? Or bring it to your location automatically?

EDIT:

To clarify, I want this dino back. I am aware that dinos can be spawned via commands. I want to find out how to recover this dino, with all its inventory.

texts: Constantly respawning in the middle of the goblin army!

texts:
So I just started hardmode and the Goblin army caught me completely by surprise. Summoners showed up that I have never faced before. My spawn is in the center of the map where my NPC's were. I am now constantly respawning now in the middle of the army and they kill me most every time. My items are not far but I can't move fast enough before the apparitions, summoners and wizards kill me.

I'm pretty sure the answer is "You're screwed" and I have to exit the game losing all my good loot (that is one the ground) that I just got from defeating the Wall of Flesh.

Is there something I can do to get out of this that won't risk my items? I took my hellavator and the army went away but when I died, since I could not survive the fall, the army returned.

My current play is I am hoping to walk enough away from my items that I can then attempt a dash, once I respawn, in the other direction to get most of my items and then quickly exit.

I am playing on medium core so just keep killing them is not a good option since copper short sword sucks on a good day.

So I hunted my first Khezu yesterday. My first monster hunter game was MH3U which had Gigginox (and Baleful Gigginox), both of which were similar monsters to Khezu but were more interesting and had faster-paced battles.

When I fight Khezu is there a way to speed up the fight? It spends a lot of time doing nothing and standing around or just hanging on the ceiling drooling and using electric attacks.

I know Khezu uses its sense of smell to hunt and is completely blind. Will making my hunter have a strong scent (either through dung or felvine or something) affect Khezu in any way, similarly to how hot/cold drinks affected how Gigginox could "see" you?

EDIT:

texts: How can you join the survival server on Mineplex?

texts:
I've tried playing on Super Fun Time a little bit, which seems to be a very user-friendly, beginner-friendly server, but I'm concerned about the number of players on it.  Mineplex seems a lot more appealing, but I don't seem to be able to join any of its servers.  I am able to join its lobby, which has several different portals pointing to different servers; but if I go to one of those portals, nothing happens.  I see other players running to those portals, one after another, and joining either the survival server or some other server; but whether I try the survival one or any other one, nothing happens.

If Mineplex's site has a contact page, it's concealed.  There are also no instructions in the handbook Minecraft item about how to talk in chat on Mineplex.  I would just give up on such a server, but it looks like it may be worth getting into, if only this one particular issue would get out of the way.

How can you join the survival server?  You should be able to run into the portal in the lobby server, it seems, but that's not working for me.  Is there at least some way to seek technical support about that?  Thanks.

A public list (like Steam can do) would be best, but even if I have to copy-paste the list from my online PlayStation account, that would be better than trying to type them all.


texts: Is 11th drone better than 9th drone overlord?

Possible Duplicate:
  Is it better to spawn your first overlord at 9 or 10 supply?

As Zerg, I can make an overlord after my 9th drone or after my 10th. If I make it after the 10th, I can build an extrator, a 11th drone then cancel  the extractor.

Does anyone have concrete facts comparing the 2 strategies? Is one better than the other? It doesn't have to be a large gap, just "This one is better by X minerals".


texts: Unresponsive screen, except for when in power saving mode?

texts:
UPDATE: Power saving mode is actually very rarely fixing this problem. When I first posted this,  power saving mode had turned for the first time while playing it, and it seemed to fix it. Now however power saver doesn't do anything to help it, although sometimes it seems to smooth the app out a little.

TLDR; Screen is very unresponsive, power saver stops it. Why??

I have an HTC M8 and have been having problems with Pokemon Go. The touch screen becomes quite unresponsive and laggy when playing this game. I have to tap/swipe multiple (sometimes ridiculous amounts) times for things to register. This hasn't ever happened before on this phone, and doesn't happen with any other app. As soon as I leave the game, the screen becomes normal again. The phone is normally never laggy or unresponsive. The game however is playable, but it makes the more complicated mechanics of the game impossible (timing your Pokeball throw, and gym battles). I thought this might be something that couldn't be fixed, but I noticed today when power saver mode turned on, that everything suddenly became fine! The screen was very responsive and the game played perfectly, for the first time since I got it. Any clue as to what could be causing this and what I can do to fix it? I have a custom ROM and kernel: CM13.0 nightly, CM kernel.

Thanks in advance.


texts: How can I prevent my kings from changing their succession law within the empire?

texts:
I play as a High King of the North Sea, and I like to give titles to my children pre-emptively so that they learn to rule.
My problem is that my children have a preference to almost immediately enact Scandinavian Elective law with their king title and thereby are completely removing the direct family from the succession. (At least the title often goes to someone in my dynasty.)
I, as a player, don't add any laws to my titles. And I don't want my heirs to enact those laws.
I once revoked a title from a rebellious king of England, and that way I had to spend prestige in order to destroy the law.
From a roleplaying perspective, the entire empire should be family business and that's why I don't want my kings to change the law without my consent.
Is there anything I can do or are king-ranked characters always able and willing to change the law?

texts:
This is a pretty specific question so I don't expect a large number of responses, but if someone out there has the time to confirm this it would be greatly appreciated.

I was firing my Elemental Arrow (Nether Tentacle) at a champion with several attributes, one of which being missile dampening (for those who don't know, it slows the projectiles significantly, although I don't believe it affects the projectile's damage). I also had my Sharpshooter perk active. Normally I do a large amount of damage, 25k dps give or take 5k, however this was in Inferno so I know the pack wouldn't go down easily. To my surprise they dropped like flies. My question for you is:

Does my Sharpshooter crit chance affect projectiles already mid-air, and does hitting the missile dampening semi-sphere reset the Sharphsoot crit chance bonus?

Either I was extremely lucky and landed ~15 natural crits in a row, or Sharpshooter left all my dampened shots 100% crits and they dealt damage as such. The numbers on my screen showed ~30k, which is typical crit damage for me (because of Nether Tentacles this is x2).

Bit Trip Core is finally on Steam. While the previous Windows ports of Bit Trip titles were quality ones, I'm a little concerned by this one — maybe I'm a little scarred by Half Minute Hero, but still the nature of the game kind of concerns me. That, and this comment on the store page:

CORE is the second installment in CommanderVideo's soul quest with:

Classic NES-Style Controls!

If I understand correctly, the core gameplay is pushing a directional key to set the direction of the lazer, then mashing a button in order to fire the lazer with the beat.
What are these buttons on a keyboard?

I've tried with both CD and ISO. I've also played with the configurations a few times and it didn't help.

I didn't have the opportunity to try another game yet, but I'd like to know what might be going on. Is it possible that the problem is being caused by the ISO itself?

Any thoughts would be highly appreciated.

texts: Are levels in Hill Climb Racing procedurally generated?

texts:
In Hill Climb Racing, your progress is limited by a few factors: crashing, running out of fuel and reaching unclimbable obstacles. However, after playing the game for some time, I have still seen no indication of any level actually "ending".
Are they procedurally generated and go on forever, or are they just hand crafted to such a distance that nobody can reach the end in practice? Maybe a combination?
This question may have been asked before, but the accepted answer interpreted that question as one about game progression rather than level length, and the accept kind of "closed" that one.
Now, I am aware that the practical answer would be likely to be "It doesn't matter if they end, you can't get to that point anyway", but I would still like to know (it may require some official source).

The icons of orange color apparently signify damage. Other colors − not sure.

What does each icon mean and how do I compare items with them?

texts:
So once I was inspired by some game on another platform to make it's parkour moves in minecraft. I knew that without commands, I was not able to do it. Luckily, I have done some commands before and thought that it was possible with the command /execute.

Some time later after experimenting with commands to come up with how to boost the player up, i run into a problem.

I decide to make it a little more realistic by making sure that the player only jumped high when he/she was looking up. So of course, I try this command:

/execute at @p[y_rotation=-90] as @p[y_rotation=-90] if block ~ ~-0.01 ~ minecraft:stone run effect give @s minecraft:levitation 1 10

I tried it, but it seemed that it did not run the command when I was looking up. Since i'm a person that was discouraged from trying other choices, I came here to ask,

What is the command?


texts: What contributes to extinguishing room fires faster?

texts:
When a room is on fire, the quickest way to extinguish the flames (so that it credits the "extinguish fires" objective) is to have the room filled to capacity with non-pregnant dwellers.

Powerful guns + high Perception work to reduce the amount of time that radroaches and mole rats disturb a fully-occupied room.

Given a fully-occupied room on fire, besides maintaining occupancy, are there additional factors which reduce the amount of time it takes to extinguish a room fire?  Perhaps stocking the room with dwellers who have a specific high-value SPECIAL attribute?

texts: Setting up an indirect server for Minecraft

texts:
So, I have a bit of a dilemma. I've been attempting to run a Minecraft server from home that I can access from the college through a VPN (Hamachi) in order to avoid port forwarding problems which have all slapped me in the face for days.

At the college, I realized how I can't install any sort of program directly into the computers there. Moreover, even if I could access the C: drive, roaming profiles are active there and so it would need to be repeated each time I got onto a different computer (let alone any of my friends).

So far, I have no idea what to do. I have a VPN set up on Hamachi that I've tested on other computers with Hamachi already installed. That works fine, but I can't install the Hamachi client onto the college computers because it requires access to the system32 drivers folder, which I don't have.

I need a simple, relatively small program that is a self-contained .exe or something similar that can just be dropped onto a desktop and told a few things to do in order to connect to the server. No drivers or anything installed in program files. I can place things into the AppData folder, if that's of any help.

Any assistance would be appreciated. I'm open to anything that can work at this point.

texts: Force Minecraft to use one outbound port to connect to my server

texts:
I have a Minecraft server running on a server. It runs on port 25565 and I can connect to it at home.

At school, however (it's a boarding school), due to the port blocking, I can't connect to the server (or any other), this is because only traffic from certain ports can get outside the network. Having talked to the head of IT, he's happy to open a port so that I can connect (we have a very accommodating head of IT) however, after some looking around, I discovered that Minecraft uses a seemingly random port over 50000 to connect to a server.

I was wondering how I could force Minecraft to use one port to connect to the server?
Then I can pass it on to the head of IT, so he can unblock it.

texts: Best, Cheap strategy to kill Queen Black Dragon

texts:
So in Runescape (EOC) I have attempted maybe 3 times to kill the QBD and I have absolutely no cash to spend on "the right" gear, as specified by the wiki. I just spend the last of my cash on a royal crossbow and I would like to bind it or forge it, however I am struggling to make it to the 4th wave.

My main problem is running out of food. I run out of sharks, and then have to attempt to take some from my war tortoise, but I cant simply due to the fact that I just keep getting hit. I then attempt to get it out as the wave ends, and 50 billion grotworms get thrown out, and then I get absolutely hammered by the fire walls.

My current setup is as follows:
Skills:
88 magic, 90 constitution, 71 prayer, combat level: 180
Items:

Full Ganodermic (including polypore)
6 super restore potions
2 anti fires (don't have 85 herblore for super antifire)
royal crossbow (unforged)
and the rest is food, with my BOB filled with sharks aswell

I currently have about 100k, and I absolutely suck at making money. I have full Dharoks in my bank, and 2 rune crossbows and full royal dragon hide armor. I am willing to make money, it's just that I would like to know what the cheapest, affective set would be?
Alternatively what are some good money making methods (currently) that will allow me to get the best gear possible?

Is it possible for me to have different Minecraft worlds with different mods?

texts:
What's the difference between buying bitizens from the store or the album?

I've noticed that once I bought a bitizen from the store, he no longer appears in the list and I'm unable to buy him a second time. Also, buying a bitizen this way doesn't seem to unlock that species in the game, even if he does ride on the elevator.

So what is the difference of buying bitizens from the two places?

As you can see from the pics below, the prices are different too... Check out the prices of the Wookie and Ithorian from my album, and then from my store.

texts: Can I transfer trophies and data to a new account?

texts: Okay I have created a sub account on my ps3 as a new user. I wanted to change my psn online id. So I have copied all game data from the old account to my new account, but when I go to play the game it still says the trophies and data belong to the old account. I don't want to delete the old one and lose all my saved games and trophies, is there a way to either unlock and allow my new user to own the data and trophies or transfer the trophies and data so that my new account may own it?


texts: Why can I connect to my server using an internal IP and localhost, but not when I use my external IP?

texts:
I have made a Feed The Beast Ultimate server for a couple of friends. When I try to connect to it, it says connection refused:connect, which, according to this post mans that there is no server online, or my router is not port forwarded properly. However, none of these apply. My router is port-forwarded correctly, and it's not a firewall problem either (I tested by disabling Windows Firewall for a couple minutes and failed to log in). I can connect by using my internal IP and localhost on the same computer. I have not tested if the internal IP works on a different computer on the same network. So, given the above information, what could be the problem? Did I forget something?

My 12yo son plays "Rocket League" on Steam, however he has started chatting in game to some people who have terrible language that I'd prefer my son doesn't pick up (at least not this young!), and so in an effort to keep him safer I'd like to block the chat (text chat) in Rocket League and possibly in Steam client as well (I think they are linked).

Is it possible to completely block the chat?  I am aware it can be done in-game, but of course this can be fairly easily un-done again too.  I'm wondering whether there is a config file I could edit to turn it off or block it somehow?

In Grand Theft Auto V on PS3 or Xbox, do I ever need to save my game manually (by sleeping in a bed or using my cell phone) or can I rely completely on the auto save feature?

A related detail, inspired by Nolonar's answer below is: If I do save my game manually, using quicksave or sleeping in a bed) should I save it in the same slot as the autosave, or a different slot? Is there any way to prevent the "Are you sure you want to overwrite?!" message that comes up at the start of each play session?

texts: Culture of Pokemon WiFi battling extremely competitive in X/Y?

texts:
My question has to deal the general culture of wifi battles in Pokemon X/Y.  I just finished the Elite 4 and am now looking for something to do.  WiFi battling looks fun, but spending hours upon hours breeding the perfect monsters is very unattractive to me. Would I see even mild success if I brought my story team online to battle random opponents?  Or do you have to have a perfect Smogon-rules team to stand a chance?

I'm hoping I can just wifi battle casually and if I really like it, I will spend time breeding and building a competitive team.


texts:
Fruit juice seems to be a pretty worthless item on itself:

For its intended purpose, it conveys a very low amount of nutrition and also a very low nutrition per weight ratio (it is 0.5, 1 or 1.5 depending on BUC status). Any food or corpse has a better ratio.
There are only two Alchemical recipes that require fruit juice.

The potion of see invisible can be made once, then blessed, to give the permanent intrinsic.
The potion of booze has a single desirable effect (confusion), and it offers the same nutrition values that fruit juice does.

Also, both booze and fruit juice don't break foodless conduct.

Throwing it doesn't appear to have an effect.
Diluting the juice into water seems to be the best use for it. However, it isn't the purpose of the potion.

Are there any other uses (preferably practical) for fruit juice?

texts: How can I respec my badass rank bonus stats?

texts:
So the bonus stats you get for your badass rank is shared and accumulated amongst all your characters.  So each character has their own level and stats while your badass rank is like your level (as a player) and your the stats you gain are given to all your characters.

This is great and I love the idea but I accidentally used up one of my badass tokens on a stat I didn't want.

Is it possible to respec my badass rank bonus points so I can use my badass tokens on abilities that I do want?  How can I do it?

Just to be clear, I don't necessarily want to be able to use all my tokens on one single stat, I just want to be refunded all my tokens so I can start building up my stats again.  And that includes being limited to choosing 1 of 5 (random?) stats per token.

Haven't used dual-spec since just last night (yup!).
I've decided to make my tank Blood DK (85) dual spec as Frost for dps.

Or is the STR/STA combination good enough for both?

Also, what about weapons...  I use two-handed weapons on Blood, should I switch to two one-handed weapons?  Consider maximizing the weapon-damage spells.

What I'm trying to do is be the toughest tank when in Blood and do the most damage in Frost.
But when in Frost, I don't know if it's better to increase speed and crit over damage?

Insights and criticism welcome!

I am returning to the World of Warcraft after several years. Many, many things have changed in the game and I am hopelessly trying to play catch-up.

I have looked into Tyrannical Gladiator pieces, but I've noticed there are quite a few changes to attributes.

I usually queue up for random battlegrounds as I want to maximize the frequency of getting into one.
I tend to heal more with AoE with [Chakra: Sanctuary] enabled.

texts:
I ordered a copy of Pokemon SoulSilver on ebay at a price that seemed almost too good (specifically this one) to play on my 3DS XL. At one point when I was checking the tracking I happened to look at the listing and see the seller updated the listing with "It cant work on 3DS." in large red lettering

I thought that this was likely a sign that the copy was counterfeit and would only work on the older, less secure hardware. I decided to wait until I got the game to check. Today I got the game, plugged it in and to my surprise it booted. I did not get passed the title screen or play any as I was short on time.

If the game is counterfeit what (if any) repercussions would there be?

texts:
As a lifelong gamer I was amazed by the difficulty of Worms 2 Armageddon on the Android platform.
After a long struggle I finally was able to finish level 30 which basically is the end of the campaign. I must say, I am a little proud at myself for this.
However... With the gold coins earned you can buy 5 bonus campaign levels (31-35).
So far it seems impossible to me to finish level 31. I even wonder what level 32-->35 will bring.

I don't want to spoil anything about the level, but let me just say you are in a HUGE disadvantage when it comes to number of worms and health per worm.

I tried digging myself in, grouping with enemies so I have a human shield (read: worm shield) and numerous of other tricks, but I can't even get close to winning.
One time I got pretty close. Meaning I completed about 80 to 90 percent of the level, but in 100 tries or something, that was a one timer.

So, does anyone have some nice tips/tactics?

texts:
I unlocked several of the (evidently optional) secrets, and I was definitely expecting to be able to go back and continue working toward completing the game.

However, when I finished the game,

   I get flown back into the starting chamber

And all of my progress appears to be completely be wiped out and I would have to re-play hundreds of puzzles just to even get back to all of the areas in the game again.

This strikes me as being so completely wrong that I'm wondering if it is a bug or not. Maybe there's a menu option or something that I missed.

At any rate, I'm hoping that somewhere in my Steam cloud progress data there is a way for me to go back so that I can actually continue my game without actually re-playing it.

texts: Starbound Matter Manipulator Upgrades not working

texts:
I have recently started a new playthrough on Starbound. I have gathered a few manipulator modules to upgrade my manipulator, but it's not allowing me to upgrade.

Say I want to upgrade to get the ability to pick up water, I simply go into the manipulator upgrade GUI and select the water icon, then click upgrade.

The problem I'm currently having with this is, while I get the upgrade, nothing unlocks and the GUI doesn't register the fact that I have the new upgrade. I can pick up liquids fine, but the GUI still allows me to "upgrade" my manipulator to get the liquid upgrade. It the upgrade button will be available and it will consume my modules, but will not unlock anything else. This is the case with any upgrade I try it on.

Since, from my searches, I have found that the race matters so my race is the Felin race


texts: How does dual wielding work with channelled abilities?

Does it alternate each weapon for each tick of damage? Or does it alternate each weapon for each successive cast, but keep damage consistent with one weapon for the duration of one cast?

texts: Games not smooth when I play while internet is connected

texts:
I noticed that my Counter Strike: Condition Zero game is not as smooth as when internet is not connected.
I mean when I walk/run in game, the screen hangs (hang could be a wrong word here) for milliseconds. It's very subtle but irritating. So overall, game is not smooth. I think it is called FPS drops.
Note that I don't play online game. I just play Tour of Duty in this game, which requires no Internet.
One way to fix this problem is disconnect Internet when I play, but I don't even understand how Internet is messing up with the game.
I feel it is somehow trying to connect to internet, don't know why would that happen when offline version don't need Internet at all. Could it be because of platform/config/MasterServers.vdf file? I saw there are lot of IPs.
IMPORTANT EDIT:
Today I noticed that it wasn't happening to this game only, it is happening with 2 other games I play, GTA5 and COD4. Earlier I thought it might because my Graphics card is not strong (940MX), but even when I play at lowest settings, I saw this non smooth fluctuations in the games.
So I feel it's definitely not because of Graphics card and my PC (which is i7 processor, 16 GB RAM). Because CS:CZ used to run pretty smooth even with Intel HD graphics. And it consumes very less RAM.
This similar problem I face when my laptop is not plugged in for charging i.e., it runs on its battery. But I guess that is a power related issue and makes sense.
So what could be the reason? All of these games I play in offline mode, Internet not needed. Can Wi-Fi Internet really mess up with games like this?

texts:
Other than theming - I'm wondering what the functional differences are in the different public transport types.

Metros don't take up space.
Monorails, metros, aren't subject to road traffic congestion.

But basically- what I'm wondering is why one would ever build monorails over metros.

Like monorails are more difficult to place/take up more room. Are they faster? It's just that they come with better stations?

Some specific things I'm wanting to know:

What is the speed of the various transport types.
What is the capacity of the various transport types. (ie. are some going to subject to congestion faster than others?)

From what I've read, Chasm is supposed to automatically pick up the sound configuration. Any advice would be appreciated.

texts:
In Chrono Trigger, during the caveman period, Ayla sees the fateful meteor falling from the sky and calls it "La Vos", which is apparently caveman-ese for "big fire."  But the only people around to hear it were the party, and Kino.

Somehow in the year 1999, millions of years later, when the destroyer erupted from beneath the earth, everyone knew it was called "Lavos", but there's no way this name was preserved through all this time.  (It certainly doesn't appear to be in circulation in Chrono's day, as even Lucca, the smartest person in the party, didn't know the word until watching the recording!)  By the modern age, not to mention the future, no one speaks caveman-ese anymore, and no one knows about Lavos lurking beneath the earth, as they appear to have been entirely unprepared for its emergence.

So where did the name come from?  Is this ever explained in a non-handwave manner?

But then this strange thing happened. Many of my vassals converted to another religion.

I am a very broadminded guy, I was happy to let them play with their new God until I could pass the religious title revocation law but those impudent wretches are now forming factions, making preposterous demands.

I wanted to demand their religious conversion. It seemed like a good plan, Since I was their liege for about 23+ years (Giving me the long reign opinion boost) and had good traits like just and diligent. But no sir, they are all "true believers" as the modifier tells me and I can't even make that demand. Not even after wasting good gold on gifts.

I had a few loyalists on council so luckily I was able to pass the religious title revocation law but now I am nervous. All of the heathens are being completely unreasonable and are predisposed to refuse my royal command for revoking their titles. I could force the issue, thereby expediting other general revolts too. Not to mention, ERE would want in on that as well to get back as much lands as they could, halting my conquest of the City of Dreams by decades, even centuries.

How do I convert the heathens back? or failing that, destroy their houses, stem and root without any major repercussions? And most importantly, how do I find the traitor who is behind this whole conversion madness?

UPDATE: I think I may have found out why did they become heathen. It might be action of some secret religious society which they were all members of. Now I just need to find out who's the scoundrel forming such socities and send him to his God.

texts:
I got some lightning resist, and with the Monk's One With Everything passive, that puts all my resists at 200%, but I still think that is too low.

How much resistance does a melee class need to be effective in Inferno?
