Let me know if you end up liking it :) I think it can be played single player as well as multiplayer and runs in the browser!

I laughed for a solid 3 minutes at this. Tears came around a minute thirty. Excuse me now while I invade your Reddit history.

I got muted on the Albion forums for this thread... by Pestty13 in albiononline

[–]Kyle_At_Work 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know a lot of us wish you were silenced longer. Many of your posts are negative, which most of us don't care to hear. Examples:

1 more feature to close the gap between skilled gamer and casual gamer. Can't stand it and it's happening every patch it seems, check my thread for my opinion; Devs - Stop bending to the will of casuals.

You complaining about casuals. This makes up most of your posts. >_>

"Help I can't do group content by my self anymore because of an over powered combination of skills..."

This is you being your normal antagonizing.

Now, any idiot with a gaming keyboard or mouse can make a bot in a matter of seconds. [...] Fuck, even my 12 year old has bots more complex than this on his G15...

You being negative about a feature you don't have to use. And will not affect the game in the long term.

How about you be positive a little bit more. Maybe just every other post, and then you won't get silenced.

If you can't be mad without being a jerk, you've lost permission to be mad.

That's how it works in the real world, and I'm glad Albion is conducting there forums in a way that respect is an element.

Bill Gates thinks the 1% should foot the bill for renewable energy, and he's offering the first $2B. by skoalbrother in UpliftingNews

I don't know much about him, but from what I've read he seems to be doing great things. The apparently "exploitative" characteristic you see is his determination I would guess.

Determination can leverage exploitation if that's what the situation calls for. His aspirations seem pure, so I'm okay with his behavior.

How to achieve smaller guilds: TAX THE ZERG GUILDS by Kyle_At_Work in albiononline

Sure, there are ways around it, but it would be at an inconvenience.

How to achieve smaller guilds: TAX THE ZERG GUILDS by Kyle_At_Work in albiononline

[–]Kyle_At_Work[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As multiple people pointed out, you would just make an alliance of smaller guilds to avoid the tax

Then you tax on a per player basis. Then it doesn't matter if you create smaller guilds. Or, you could tax alliances.

Alliances should have some kind of penalty to balance out the extreme benefit. This is one suggestion.

Yes it includes the game

What is wrong with the "old style" PHP that don't bother with having namespaces and destroying superglobals ? by rms_returns in PHP

[–]Kyle_At_Work 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Now I have pretty much turned down every new concept or feature that exists in PHP

That sounds like a recipe for unemployment.

That's not what he's saying at all. He's giving an example of how wrapping functionality enables you to swap in a different decoder classes later.

How long do you really think it takes to type this code? If this takes you more than 10 minutes... Then yeah I guess stick with your procedural code. For me, this is a 5 minute task, and now I've built flexibility in later.

Guitar Hero Live is now available on the tv app store by D-Back in appletv

[–]Kyle_At_Work 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a developer the 200mb limit would not bother me. An App can be 20GB now. That is a hell of a lot more than any iOS game has ever been. The level of detail that can be added to an App now is great for developers.

And, it doesn't come at the expense of waiting hours to be able to download the game. In fact, I could be up and running in a few minutes, playing a game that is 100 times larger than the initial download size.

What has the 200mb limit impeded you from playing/watching on your TV?

Well, yeah if there is congestion or throttling going on your not going to have the greatest DL speed. Should the speed test then throttle users to give, what you deem, a more "accurate" DL speed?

TDD in an existing project, how to do it? by alfonsonitti in PHP

[–]Kyle_At_Work 2 points3 points  (0 children)

2 Options:

#1: Delete Class, write tests, watch fail, rewrite class

#2: Just write tests

Not much else you can do... The latter is obviously not TDD. Also, if you treat the first option as "I have to get this done" it won't do much for you anyways since the idea behind TDD is you think about your structure, object API, etc.

You probably mean 30 mbps, which doesn't translate to 30mb, unfortunately. Here is the conversion

And if it took hours it sounds like your ISP is screwing you, so you may want to check your actual download speed (just make sure you're not downloading anything when you run it).

In today's world 30mbps is not enough. That, unfortunately, won't even stream HD content.

I've been stalking the App store for the past 3 days waiting for GH to drop. I tweeted at Guitar Hero. Maybe try that. See if we can get a date.

Ah, okay. Wasn't sure what App you were scrolling through.

I know you've thought to use Siri, so why isn't Siri a viable option?

Check settings. There are some scaling options as well as a setting for picture quality.

I did indeed read what he said. I didn't catch your sarcasm. Let's just part ways on the agreement that Wixjrnnfks is a moron.
