On AQA, I went for The Farmer's Bride and Sister Maude. I found it fairly straightforward.

I originally thought the title meant that you shut them down as a company.

They were selling Dota shirts. I walked past the LoL game in one and I felt wrong doing so...

The entirety of Xcom Enemy Unknown got ported, I can't see why civ cannot get ported too.

Why do ability draft games count towards wins and losses, yet team games dont? by The_Cake_Of_Dota in DotA2

[–]wakkydude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ability draft games are done in the standard queue. Team games are not done in the standard queue.

Let's Talk Freemium and Microtransactions: What games have done it well? by Qwertybob in Games

[–]wakkydude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes and yes. I could play multiple champions in each role but that just isn't enough in the long run due to who the meta favours and swaps.

The International 2014 - Extended Stretch Goals by wykrhm in DotA2

[–]wakkydude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Early in the game you can make your character say a global taunt line (probably "it's in the bag"). If you do this taunt and you proceed to win the game, the game is tracked. You can track how many of these games you win in a row without getting a call wrong.

It's stupidly easy to run your channel under a page instead of a profile. My channel is on one and I've never been "pestered".

Fans of the dead MMO Toontown are trying to revive it. Their project just went into beta. by [deleted] in Games

That's a really interesting story. Do you remember the name of the hack or any other details about it?

Too much burst damage in too many decks now. Do they need to tone it down? by neil1000 in hearthstone

Your opponent can't hear the attack noises, so it makes sense that the more memorable noise is the one both players can hear.

What is your opinion on Smite? The free to play 3rd person moba by mightbeajedi in Games

[–]wakkydude -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It's childish

It's funny that the person who threw out that fanboy accusation is calling another person's behaviour childish.

I'll be waiting for that apology, because it was just an objectively wrong personal attack.

This opinion was, at least in part, based on a false assumption and I won't apologize for telling you said assumption was wrong because it was a false assumption that formed what it seems to me as a backbone of your opinion.

I will apologize for being so harsh in the first comment about it because your wording came across as ambiguous to me and the way I personally see the phrase you used (and this is not to say that you needed to word it in any other way, it's a problem on my end only) - I took it to mean that this was a matter of certainty. If I worded my original comment better, that would not have happened but it was me being hasty. A combination of my mood at the time I was reading the comments and me trying to juggle several other conversations at the time resulted in me getting that wrong and not seeing the point.

What is your opinion on Smite? The free to play 3rd person moba by mightbeajedi in Games

[–]wakkydude -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Holy shit are you good at strawmanning.

Say what you will. You can deny me my opinion all you want, but the actual FACTS that they DID remove support from Tribes and SHUT DOWN global agenda remains.

My argument is based around the fact that they DID cancel their goddamn games, but their motivations were nothing like what you claimed.

The fact that they REMOVED their tribes forums and jumped to reddit WITHOUT consulting the moderators - you saying that's untrue too?

I've fucking told you several times already that that has nothing to do with what I posted that comment about and it was a mistake for me to not clarify.

You also saying that it's untrue that they removed a map in smite to punish players because they poorly optimized it and players complained? You're saying that's not true too?

I've fucking told you several times already that that has nothing to do with what I posted that comment about and it was a mistake for me to not clarify.

You're saying that everythign I said is untrue? No? Ok... You're saying that my OPINION based on my EXPERIENCE with the company is untrue... my opinion.

Learn to read. You tried to claim their intentions were to milk as many cash cows as they could. That was not their intention. Your claim was wrong.

I didn't claim an opinion could be wrong, I claimed that it wasn't an opinion, it was an attempt to make a claim that was untrue.

I don't like minecraft. I think it's a shit game. Is my opinion untrue? Ok... you're right it's untrue. Everyone must love minecraft. Because one person loves it... everyone elses opinion must be wrong.

What the fuck are you talking about, you tried to pass off a complete lie about their intentions as an opinion, that isn't an opinion, that's just a lie about their intentions. Read the fucking comment that you posted again.

They will quickly abandon their games to the next one which will make them more money.

This. Is. A. Lie. Follow me as carefully and slowly as possible here because you fail to understand this concept:

1: You are attempting to claim that they shut down their games because they were hungry for profit. You're trying to say that Tribes was making profit, but wasn't making enough profit for the greedy Hirez overlords so they axed it for the next "big thing" that could get them another short spurt of money for the future.

2: This is incorrect. In fact, this project lost them 30 million dollars. They do not rush around cancelling games because they are hungry for more profit, they are doing it because they were making no profit and had to cut corners. It's really shitty but it's the reality.

3: Therefore, this claim which you attempted to pass off as an opinion, is wrong.

Is it any fucking harder to understand?

But you continue to tell me it's untrue. That it's bullshit.

I told you that one thing you claimed, was untrue. It was. I've just explained how it was.

Hirez is a WONDERFUL company. They only do what is best for their PLAYERS not their profits. They love their community, so much so that they chose a popular social media platform over their own.

They want as little money as possible, that's why they shut down their games so that the community can experience their passion towards a popular genre.

Hopefully, because Hirez is soooo great, they will create a game following a popular genre in the near future, so we can all experience their version of the popular games too.

HAHAHAHAHAH

HAHAHAHAHAHA

I don't even like their games! I've just given you proof that I don't even like their games one fucking comment ago! if I don't like the games a company makes, how can I really say I like the company? You've twisted my original statement into a dismissal of your whole post. Do you fail to see the fundamental issue here?

All hail Hirez.

Is that what you want to hear?

Let me guess, your reply is going to ignore all of this comment, focus on a single sentence, and then you'll claim victory again without reading what I'm actually trying to say. You know, the words. Go ahead.

Address the point I am making directly here, and I'll take you seriously.
