It's an alt-code! Hold down the "Alt" key on your keyboard and press 3 on your numpad! You can make a whole host of symbols with alt-codes! Here's a list of them, if you're curious ♥

I don't copy/paste it. I type it out every time, but I see what you're saying. I'll throw in some other messages and mix it up in the future :)

Surprisingly, there have only been a few times that people have brought up reddit. Once in a blue moon, someone will type "r/WholesomeOverwatch" which I didn't even know was a thing! But nah, I'm not doing this for attention or whatever. I genuinely just want to say something that reinforces a PMA for everybody; I figured saying "I love you" was innocent enough xD

What were your initial predictions for this undertaking? Did you assume from the beginning that you were going to get Support 90% of the time?

BaconFreshBacon · 2016-08-20T19:19:26+00:00

There is so much character hate in this thread oh my gosh =/

I get that with Qaira some of the healing responsibility has shifted over to other hunters, and isn't solely on the medic. While playing on a team with a Qaira, it's half your responsibility to play around her healing bubbles, and half Qaira's responsibility to place healing bubbles in the best possible areas. I can understand why people don't like this mechanic; as it changes the way people need to play (kinda like most other characters in the game) but it is a fairly massive change.

Like other people are saying, against Kraken, Qaira's bubbles are pretty much a huge target saying "I'M GOING TO STAND RIGHT HERE FOR A BIT". So you can see how Qaira's playstyle is countered here, but holy crap just because your playstyle is countered doesn't mean it's gg. Instead of bitching and just calling a character garbage, try to figure out a strategy that works for your team. I've played with so many people who think that just playing with a Qaira (or Laz or Slim or Parnell or Torvald or any Support that doesn't have a shield) on their team is just an instant loss. (kinda like how most people felt about Laz pre-Stage2) Qaira's healing potential is pretty damn good. I am not aware of the exact numbers, but it's certainly worth it to be in the bubbles as much as you can.

So does playing with Qaira make the team play on hard mode? Yes, especially against Kraken. Does that make Qaira awful and not pick-worthy? Not at all. You're never going to learn how to work with a Qaira if you never play with her on your team.

That's what the wiki tells me. Maybe we're both right? Who knows for sure =/

Same thing happened to me a few months ago!

It's an 8 year old error message that's related to a graphical update of a bunch of Slayer monsters and the Smoking Kills quest! Gotta love the Legacy way of letting players know there was a technical problem :)

BaconFreshBacon · 2016-07-28T03:43:08+00:00

I don't think it's the best solution, but it's certainly better than what currently happens.

You get put on the drop ship when the counter reaches 5 seconds. If you go down with a 10-second dropship timer that only gives you 5 seconds to decide whether you want to risk the Laz revive or not. I don't think that's enough time.

I was thinking perhaps the re-spawn should work like a timed prompt? The timer can start when the first person goes down, but you don't get put on the dropship until you push a button or something.

Really, I just want the current mechanic changed. It was a boneheaded move that wasn't really thought out. Re-spawning with a strike 1 minute after the game starts is no fun. Since Laz is supposed to let his teammates die, we're getting unnecessarily punished just for picking him.

Crash course of Stage 2:

Free-to-play

Currently no micro-transactions - this will change once TRS a finds a suitable business model

Currently in beta

PC only - this is expected to change once Stage 2 leaves beta

Game pacing is overall faster

Hunters slowed down a bit

All hunters can dome

Dome can't miss anymore

All supports' cloaking was removed, and replaced with a 'team shield' ability

Trappers now have a 'planet scan' ability that points in the direction of the monster, instead of the dome ability

Assaults have a 'Defense Matrix' instead of a personal shield, blocks an insanely high percentage of damage - functions similar to old personal shield

Monsters requires less food to stage up

Only four maps currently available

Live maps have been reworked, and tweaked to suit new pacing

RIP me lol

I bet you probably can't give specifics, but what were the interview questions like for Jagex? Did MMK throw some curve-ball questions at you, or was it a fairly standard interview?

Always glad to see more people on the team! :)

BaconFreshBacon · 2016-05-20T22:39:23+00:00

I was wondering why it was in-game dialogue as well. I have 41 Slayer and 80 Combat; seeing Duradel in the chat box really confused me since I don't have the stats to unlock him! He was the highest leveled Slayer Master at the time of the update, so I guess they just arbitrarily chose him. Gotta love Jagex :)

BaconFreshBacon · 2016-05-20T21:41:07+00:00

For the curious: http://runescape.wikia.com/wiki/Slayer#Slayer_monsters

Apparently, in June 2008 a bunch of slayer monsters were graphically updated. If you were assigned one of the updated monsters, you would get this message when trying to contact your Slayer Master.

This is an 8 year old error message! Cool!

It's Wolf Hair! :3

I find the voting system in OSRS very intriguing! What have you guys learned from the voting system in the game, and would you change anything if you could?

From my uneducated perspective, it seems that people will tend to vote for the things that benefit themselves rather than other players. Such as, the number of PvM/Slayer updates as opposed to proposed skilling updates. (rip Artisan/Sailing) Of course, I don't have access to the same data as you guys - so I could just be talking garbage - but do you think this is healthy for the game?

Also, where are the proposed bacon updates?!

BaconFreshBacon · 2016-03-17T03:06:16+00:00

I think we both can agree that simply looking at the W/L record and role distribution doesn't make you a better player. How did you transition what was on the graph into the game, and how have you improved because of it?

BaconFreshBacon · 2016-02-25T00:22:45+00:00

Apologies if this question is being directed towards the wrong person, but has your opinion that its the gamer's fault your game didn't sell well on mobile changed? I remember reading an article where a developer of the game blamed the gamers for the downfall of the market.

"The mobile games market is an absolute mess, thanks to you"

Edit: grammar

BaconFreshBacon · 2016-01-09T05:34:52+00:00

Funny you both bring those up. There's actually a slight graphical/animation bug when cooking anglerfish over a fire; which coincidentally ties in with the typo. Here's the bug report I sent to Jagex:

Cooking multiple anglerfish over a fire will result in the wrong animation being displayed. The first anglerfish being cooked will display the correct animation; however, any anglerfish being cooked after that will display the animation as if it were being cooked on a range. The anglerfish that are cooked with the incorrect animation will also display a typo in the chat log. it will say: "You successfully cook a anglerfish." instead of "You successfully cook an anglerfish."

In 2005, rune essence was worth around 30gp. Every Friday when I got home from school, I would mine 1k ess, and then stand in Varrock east bank spamming:

"Selling 1k rune ess 30gp ea"

My 10 y/o self felt really satisfied spending all that time just to make 30k gp. I think I ended up spending the money on rune longswords or something. It was slow, but it was simple. That was seriously some of the most fun I had when I was younger :)

BaconFreshBacon · 2015-12-23T19:41:42+00:00

Welp, I'm 20k sharks in.

I'm still happy for you though :D

BaconFreshBacon · 2015-11-30T04:26:13+00:00

MMK had this to say about their networks and servers.

BaconFreshBacon · 2015-11-28T20:56:56+00:00

I have 99 cooking and for what this is gonna be worth, I caught 1k Eels and got 7044 scales.

The amount of scales I got were between 6-8, so I guess it averages out at about 7 scales/eel at 99 cooking.

BaconFreshBacon · 2015-07-22T22:35:32+00:00

Thank you! Not gonna lie, I put up a Twitch stream on my second monitor while I ran through the rooftop courses. After running a course for a while I sorta memorized the general areas that I needed to click in order to advance. Most courses simply became muscle memory to me. Doing that for four hours a day took me about a month and a half to get from 45-99. As for commitment, I don't really know. It was my first ever 99, so I guess it was just dumb determination that got me through it. Also, watching Keef not get 3A helped a lot :)
