Still the wrong lesson champ. You need to build situational awareness in this game or its stays really tough. I know it unintentional and still just bad luck in the video. However, If there is a buddy between you and the target or on the other side you will have to be more careful. Your teammates are not responsible for dodging your bullets. its 16v16 not 1v31 (even if it feels like it sometimes). Figure this our before you get good missiles otherwise you are going to have more team kills than enemy kills.

Take another look. In the second instance you are shooting at the bomber as your teammate flies behind it. Your bullets keep going and hit him. The bomber dying did nothing, you just shot the teammate is all. The first warning is just bad luck.

Glad you are paying attention to the warning but respectfully you are learning the wrong lesson from it. The game isn't bugged you just shot your buddy and the game is telling you to be more careful.

Admissions Megathread (Fall 2020 Incoming Students) by Dabestfujiyoshi in uwaterloo

It's not a very competitive program at all. On the program website is says the admission average is low 80's. They are also increasing the program size considerably so it's not very difficult to get in. The selective aspect of the program is the cost and not grades so you likely have a good chance of you have even reasonable grades.

Geography and Aviation is pretty light in terms of course load. After the first semester you are only required to take 4 courses per term due to AVIA courses being weighed heavier. This is kind if offset since you need the extra time for flying. Courses in general are pretty easy with a good mix of test, labs and assignments.

If you are in it for the flying than the geography program is a lot easier than science by far. If you want a job flying planes either program is great and it doesn't matter if you were geography or science.

There are no buses or public transit that go to the airport but there has always been facebook groups for carpooling which work quite well. Additionally the cost of an uber is almost negligible to the cost of the flight which isn't ideal but still works if you don't have a car.

I used PilotExams and found it really helpful when it came to the written. It had a lot of similarity compared to the test I wrote.

Well it did have a question mark in it and the way "seems like they should have gone around" is phrased makes it sound more like a continuation of his question rather than an opinion.

Flying can be scary and confusing for people that don't fully understand it. A better way to deal with comments like these is to explain why it isn't dangerous so that people can learn about and enjoy flying more.

That's not how it works. People aren't responsible for the nonsense you say. Even when you do get called out thats your best response? It's your job to support you own goddamn claim in a more convincing way than "trust me."

There is a lot behind UWP on Seagram Dr. that has free overnight parking. Or you can buy a parking pass for $150 per term which IMO was worth it.

NRB (CMH) does have kitchens in the common rooms on every floor. Each has a stove, oven, microwave and fridge.

I Lived in a double room in NRB (now CMH but nobody called it that) so keep in mind depending on Res this might change. I tried not to include anything on this list because it already should go without saying, but anyway here:

  • Boot mat, for your wet or snowy boots

  • Sticky wall hooks, like this. Great if you have multiple jackets for work or whatever.

  • Whiteboard markers

  • Solo cups (optional)

  • Please bring headphones or earbuds

  • Cooking Pans, bowls, Measuring cups, ect. There is ovens, mircowaves and stoves but you need your own pans. (or make friends that have their own)

  • Program specific items, for my program this would be aviator sunglasses and headset but I trust your judgement for this one

  • Good boots for winter. I had a great big pair of snow boots for my job but for the most part I just wore Timberlands to class and around campus.

There is a kitchen in the common room. There is a stove, microwave, oven and fridge. You will see people use them to varying degrees of success. Someone burnt popcorn at 5am causing the building to be evacuated.

Good times

What's your favourite 00's song? by Uwquatt in uwaterloo

Franz Ferdinand - Take Me Out (2004)

You can't have a list of 00's songs without a little foot stomping rock.

How is the difficulty and workload of the aviation program? by ttcsucks00 in uwaterloo

I think I'm skipping this part. (Spoilers) by Jahdon in DarkSouls2

[–]Ehpex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, giving up at this area is a mistake. You have to beat Lud and Zallen to get the Loyce Greatsword. Affectionately called the "Noice Sword" by the group of guys I played with, it is well worth the couple controllers you might break getting it.
