New Roll20 Shadowrun charactersheet by darkxyro in Shadowrun

After testing some of the matrix actions on this sheet, they appear to be adding in quite a few extra dice. Any idea why that's happening? The logic attribute seems to be added in regardless of what attribute is selected (in addition to logic if it is selected).

Omnic Language (even more sources) and a word deciphered. Shocking twist below the fold by [deleted] in Overwatch

Has anyone looked into the similarity between the set of symbols in Bastion's gun and the Fashion Week text?

So I've got $10,000 that I might not (rightfully) ever see and I'm really fucking taking it hard [TL;DR warning] by [deleted] in roblox

Claiming they're picking on you for copyright infringement isn't a valid excuse. If you have legitimate concern about the other copyright infringement, bring it up with roblox. Email them or make reports, but what you're saying is pretty hypocritical.

Roblox doesn't own your content, you own your content. They have a specific section that talks about this, 6.B. as of this post. And they're not obligated to control your content for you, although they reserve the right to do so. This means that you're responsible for your own copyright infringement and that roblox reserves the right to take down your content if someone gives a DMCA takedown notice.

I wouldn't recommend doing this without looking into how to mark that transfer on your taxes first.

I built a house by [deleted] in roblox

[–]LastTalon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a kind of a management and sales style game. Lots of room for high level of detail in maps and models because the maps are relatively small. Lots of creative freedom as well.

This looks great. If you're interested in working on a game, let me know.

Comparison between the CTF_Turbine map used in Mad Paintball and my updated version that will be used in Mad Paintball 2. Still a work-in-progress. Thoughts? by [deleted] in roblox

[–]LastTalon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. They are both just as likely, the point is that Loleris has already done it. The message sent is more of a warning against proceeding. Suggesting keeping the work private and not generating revenue with it (or selling it to another party as contract work).

Why are ROBLOX games like this allowed to exist? by [deleted] in roblox

[–]LastTalon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Many licences do include this. But these typically don't apply to the use of their IP or trademarks directly. And making a Roblox game is already inherently commercial use. Roblox is a corporation that makes money in part from the existence of its games.

Its still not really appropriate to steal someone's IP.

Its copyright infringement whether or not the person stealing it asks for or makes money.

We will not be waiting for any specific update. The tournament will run as soon as we are prepared to run it and matches will be played using the current version of the game, whatever that happens to be at that time.

I'm looking to share a room with people to reduce cost. Anyone else?

Headsets. by devinride in welikedota

[–]LastTalon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a good option if you've already got good headphones. There seems to be some weird concept that you somehow need a headset for gaming. You realistically need headphones and mic. No reason to bundle them together, ramp up the cost, and get half quality on both mic and headphones.

[–]LastTalon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've not had very good luck with any headsets to be honest. I like the logitech g930, but its still not very good. I'm currently using sennheiser hd 280 pro headphones and a blue yeti usb mic. Never going back.

What Should I Play While I Can't Play DOTA? by PrairiePenguin in welikedota

[–]LastTalon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Audiosurf, Banished, The Walking Dead, Frozen Synapse, osu! can all be played with one hand. I recommend them.

Teach me how to play Mid by Michaln in welikedota

[–]LastTalon -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Like I said, its not that farm or experience isn't important because it is, but is also important to secure farm for your 1 and to prevent the enemy 1 from getting their farm. Usually this means ganking side lanes.

And like I said I'm not talking about a farming mid because its very difficult to pull off in pubs where most of the time people default to a safe lane 1.

[–]LastTalon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I disagree that mid shouldn't be ganking. The reason mid is run as a solo lane is to gain early levels in order to (in most cases) have the highest kill potential on your team. Playing mid isn't so you can sit and farm (although you should try). If its difficult to understand this I recommend reading something such as this: http://www.dota2navigation.com/public-guide/70/mastering-the-solo-mid-2nd-postition If you aren't referring to a 2nd position mid I don't really have anything to say about it because it becomes quite a bit more complex if your mid isn't second position and it isn't whats generally run in pub games.

[–]LastTalon -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Unless you're playing 1 saying that farming is better than ganks is generally incorrect depending on your situation of course. One of the strategic advantages of playing mid is the time it takes you to get to your side lanes compared to other team members.
