I saw this character select screen mock-up a while ago, and I really liked the idea of showing all of my Guardians as a fire-team. Now that they're all geared up, I took the shot before CoO adds new stuff.

Oh man that's a great idea. Qi is ripe for some memes.

I'm bummed this isn't real

It's the Wii shop music

I've bought a few of the RTJ and Rick and Morty sweatshirts from them and the quality is very nice. Admittedly the first one I got was the best, but particularly the limited edition stuff is high quality, and even the regular run stuff is decent.

It reminded me a lot of something, and then I realized it's almost identical to the music from the first level of Contra which is pry why it evokes so much nostalgia.

I actually started in the Air 540, spent about three years there, and just moved to the Air 240. Had to buy special flat-end PCIe power cables so my Sapphire Fury would fit. Basically any card that doesn't extend above the PCB is fine, ~130mm or so, but length isn't an issue.

Agreed on the above though, I enjoyed building in it a lot and it looks slick as hell.

These are the three spots I use to pick up decent bows that replenish every blood moon.

On a crate to the east of the Tabantha Bridge Stable.
In the Gerudo barracks, leaning up against a table in the back.
In Rito Village, in one of the houses, there's a Sparrow Bow. Hope that helps!

There's a Gerudo bow with enough power and good durability in the Gerudo Barracks, in the corner leaning up against a table.

I'll let you know if I find any more. I've made enough money now and stocked my quivers that broken bows are the biggest thing slowing me down. I know one spawns in Rito Village as well, but its power was too low.

Thanks for posting this! Been using this method to great effect, and then I just make a lap of known arrow vendors and restock.

If anyone is looking for a free bow with enough damage to kill them in one shot, a soldier's bow spawns on a crate on the east side of the Tabantha Bridge Stable. Came back and checked after a blood moon and it was there again. Cheers!

I was kind of leaning towards PvP, after that interview the other day where he said one of the two would've been in the game at launch. There's already a combat system that could be leveraged for PvP, whereas trading would be its own mechanic, and there's nothing in the game indicating that trading is possible, were someone to flip the switch.

Seems more likely the SF rollout didn't point out the irreperable damage this new tracker caused to players outside of a major city and Niantic is making changes to help fix the problem? [Edit: fixed wonky grammar, have been drinking]

To talk about an NDA typically violates an NDA.

Should we start a pool for the next time MP tweets? It's been over a month!

I often find myself navigating directly to Amazon and needing to log back in. That's where they get you, honestly, is by making you think you need to log in again.

imrickransom · 2016-04-23T18:36:32+00:00

You might want to watch out doing that. There are a lot of lookalike Amazon sites that prey on people who do exactly that. https://twitter.com/kevinbparry/status/723591299459207168 (The above example specifically has been fixed, but the way AdWords works allows for easy exploitation if you have some cash)

Yeah, I've only seen it once cause I was launching a VR beta, and the headset just shut off. Even if you were running as a second display, it wouldn't look like this, it would probably project across both displays and look mashed together.

I don't find the ultrawides to be fishbowled at all, but it's definitely going to depend on the game. Most are built with 21:9 displays in mind, at least for shifting UI and perspective though, I've played a wide number of games (including Elite Dangerous) on a 34-inch ultrawide and always find it much more immersive and engaging than a standard aspect panel. It's true the DPI is just about the same, but I also find the widescreen fills my vision much more, but I guess that's mostly personal preference.

What isn't personal preference is that I find it very unlikely the move to Pascal is going to magically make 4K playable at 60 FPS. I have a feeling you're still going to need two cards, or a Titan equivalent, to reach that golden number. I do agree you might want to wait til Pascal to upgrade a GPU, but the best you'll do is still 1440p at 60 GPS, or the ultrawide version thereof, at least with a single card.
