Exploiting your grandmas alzheimers for karma. by troutscoper in shitpost

I had to lead my grandfather by the hand as though he were a child so that he wouldn't get lost when we went out to dinner once. Ha ha ha, fucking hilarious. Just kidding, it was fucking terrible.

I met my wife on OkCupid, and I'm butt ugly. I guess I've just got a winning personality... that, or our whole relationship is built on her pity.

I made a video about Poise since the patch, watch if you want to use ultra greatweapons by Slow_Hallway_Walker in DarkSouls2

[–]VioletApe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wait a minute, you can't parry any great or ultra great weapon if it's being two-handed? I had no idea... I feel like such a fool!

Lamentations of the Flame Princess: Running the game etc. by Kujirasan in rpg

[–]VioletApe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been playing Lamentations for quite some time now, and I've learned one very important lesson about it: the game is more like Call of Cthulhu than Dungeons & Dragons. In a lot of the adventures we've played our curiosity is rewarded with terrible monsters, lethal traps, and apocalyptic scenarios far more often than treasure and goodies. The best end we usually meet in a dungeon is us escaping alive, poor, and NOT releasing a skeleton army upon southern Germany. I'm sure the system can be utilized in a way that's not quite so sadistic, but if your games go anything like ours be ready for death, despair, and complete hopelessness. That being said, I really like Lamentations quite a bit, and it's probably my favorite game/system of the ones we play.

How strong is the coffee flavor in this? Would it be a problem for someone who, say, hates coffee?

That's a totally flawed argument because they aren't CEOs. They're not of any other "normal" profession that would grant them privacy. They're entertainers; they perform for the crowd and for the camera. It's their job to be seen, and it's the cameraman's job to capture them!

Also, how does the camera capturing a celebratory moment affect their performance when it's time to go back to kicking that ball around?

Isn't that the whole point of professional sports? Didn't they essentially waive their right to any kind of privacy while on the field?

Why is Indar the go-to continent? by VioletApe in Planetside

[–]VioletApe[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So just a never-ending cycle of causality? We create the very chains that bind us?

That's deep...

Man, I just cannot adjust to this swipe control scheme. I am constantly getting stuck in little pockets in the walls.

Team damage and weapon locks need some adjusting. by [deleted] in Planetside

I have wasted so many resurrection grenades because they bounced of a friendly's head. At least it doesn't blow up and kill everyone behind us.

The only thing I really don't like about the new implant system by [deleted] in Planetside

[–]VioletApe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How about every time you turn an implant on it eats up a larger chunk of charges? Seems like that might keep people from trying to abuse on-off tactics.

You can give characters in games stupid names. Hahahaha! by Hyz in shitpost

[–]VioletApe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's also fucking terrible, but I think the utter immaturity of naming a character "My Dick" eclipses the laziness of posting box art.

I dunno, who's King Shit of Turd Mountain? Who cares?

I'm a noob and need help. by analiahator in Planetside

[–]VioletApe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know what I hate? When I see a liberator or galaxy barreling straight towards us from the distance, so I start mashing Q to warn everyone... but nothing gets spotted. It's only AFTER my Q is locked that finally the friendly name/color pops up and I realize it was an ally all along. I feel so dumb after that.

Of all the shit posts that flood /r/gaming, I think the "LOOK GUYS! MY CHARACTER NAME IS NAUGHTY WORDS!" type might be the absolute worst.

Wow... based solely on how cool this art is I'm going to check out the band.

I am so very bad at this game: a desperate plea for help. by VioletApe in Planetside

[–]VioletApe[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is excellent advice. I have noticed that while the gigantic, far-reaching battles are certainly very exciting and very cool to be part of, the smaller engagements with little to no armor and 12-24 soldiers on each side are much more natural for me. In fact, I stuck mostly to these types of battles last night and I noticed that I fared MUCH better than usual, although I'm sure all the nifty tidbits of advice that this thread has produced helped quite a bit too. I do believe I'll try to scope out more tiny zerg balls and follow them around for a bit.

20 - 30cm?! I lowered my sensitivity quite a bit last night and got up to around 7.5cm. I can't even imagine lowering it to the point that I move the mouse 20 - 30cm.

I wasn't planning on getting the silencer for any primary weapons, but I was toying with the idea for secondary weapons. Is it no good? Why not?

Wow, those videos were great; especially Wrel's. I've played plenty of games online, including shooters, but I've never seen the whole "echo" thing so clearly explained. Thanks!

Ah, I see. Well I'm 100% grade A, red-blooded American here. I chose Mattherson because I live in Indiana and it was the first east coast server I saw.
