Well, it is time. New computer is necessary, and tax refund just came in.

Usually your best bet for trouble shooting is to start with the easiest problem first, like a bad cord.

If you have another machine you can use that cable with, try it and see if you get a similar error. If you do not, get another cable and see if it works.

As far as your NIC goes, is it integrated with the motherboard or plug and play?

Tried the cord already, no go.

It's inter-grated unfortunately, which is why I'm wondering whether it's possible to replace it without having to get rid of the entire thing. But alas, motherboards are flimsy things.

Could always just get another card if you got an extra slot you can stick it in(assuming this isn't a laptop of course).

My current solution is to use a wi-fi adapter. But I see it as a bandage solution. I personally think local connection is better than wireless for gaming. But the local connection is also affecting frame rates slightly, and it's noticeable. Tried updating my BIOS but it doesn't seem to work right….swore I installed it when I made this computer.

*sigh* Time to buy a blank CD to burn the rom file into. Feels like 2005 all over again.

With Heavensward coming and looking back at some games where the quality is starting to drop with newer games in general as things get upgraded, I was wondering if I should take the plunge and buy a GTX Titan X. Or maybe a GTX 980?

Good news, everyone!

Dead or Alive 5 is getting a PC release in February!

Now it will be far, far easier for people to rip the models out of the games and make pornography with them. Oh my yes.

She probably did, since everyone keeps talking about how much darker she was in DOA Xtreme Volleyball. Which lets the characters tan.

One of the commenters actually linked to a very informative article about the skin colour change from 2012. It also mentions how Vanessa from Virtua Fighter literally went from definitely black and muscular to almost white and having no visible muscle, and explains how Japanese beauty ideals and good ol' ignorance could easily have played a part in both cases.

https://gamebabble.wordpress.com/2012/07/

The same guy also did a great follow-up article in light of recent events, in which he points out that Itagaki is likely trolling, Lisa isn't even that whitewashed in the actual game, and various other good thought-provoking points, along with some bonus jabs at SJWs.

Everyone's got a few. Wether it's actual achievement trophies it took forever to get, getting all the endings of a multi-ending game, or just something damn impressive that came about as a result of your gaming.

Let's use this thread to share these moments with eachother.


First up, I'm not quite done with this, but it's taken me the better part of two days to get this monstrosity to start running in Space Engineers. The conveyor system inside is a nightmare of allow/disallow for various ores to all the different furnaces, refineries, and assemblers, but I managed to get it going just the way I wanted and even have the inside pressurized. All that's left is to build a control tower and defensive turrets and I'll have me a fairly self-sufficient battleship.

I got the ship finished! I'm feeling really good about this thing. It takes for fucking ever to stop from full speed due to it's insane mass, but it's pretty much a mobile station, so that's to be expected.

I wanted to do at least one ship with no mods used so that I could at least have the possibility that the devs may add it in at a later date as a derelict in exploration mode.

For those interested, I have put it up on the workshop.

Story time!

So we used to do friday night gaming at a friend's house. Basically DnD, Guilty Gear, etc until 4-5am. Lotsa drinking, lotsa food, and all that.

One of my friends is a master at fighting games and goes on these wild win streaks against us scrubs. I'm not very good at fighting games. I've never had the patience for the proper combos and counters to truly master it.

Game of the night after a session of DnD was Guilty Gear(forgot which one, but on the PS3). I like May because loli with a giant fucking anchor. What's not awesome about that? So as usual this guy has his big win streak going.

I'm really really hammered. It was not long after Christmas and my dad had gotten me a big bottle of jack as one of my gifts. I brought it over to share. Whenever I drank enough coke out of my double gulp, I added more jack.

Then I went into this bizarre zen mode with May. I was tossing whales, dolphins and flying around the screen on the anchor and just beating this guy. I won three games in a row.

It doesn't sound like a whole lot, but I felt like I could climb a mountain naked after doing that and claim king of the world.

Final Fantasy 14 ARR's The Fall Patch.

Heavily spoiled text (and image) for those who play and haven't finished the story yet. But god damn, they know how to make a person buy an xpac, don't think I've ever been so impressed by an MMO story in such a long time. I didn't even skip the credits!

All that hard work on unity, just to be hijacked and pissed on as Ul'dah gets new management. Also, they sure cleared up the roster…nothing confirmed but I reckon half the scions will not be present when we eventually get word of who endured the brass blades after the hostile takeover. Oh, and money is the root of all evil who'd of guessed. Only thing I don't get is how we can get around Ul'dah and Revenant's Toll now if the monetarists have branded us traitors. They say the people won't give us out to the authorities of Ul'dah on account of being Warrior of Light and all, but there are still guards abound these areas. We're practically branded witchs in the desert really…I'm glad I am part of the maelstorm (and hailed from Gridania), at least Gridania and Limsa Lominsa have a competent government.

Addendum: And with a clearer mind I realize this probably doesn't belong here. But to my defense, I hardly watch credits. Watching the credits is a sign of respect, for me at least.

Beating FFX's chocobo race recently in my quest to perfect the HD remaster version. Never did it before, I thought it'd be a pain in the ass.

It was.

Mind you this was also being streamed, and I broke down to the point of taking one of my viewers's/friend's suggestion and playing benny hill on loop. It got worse (or funnier depending on your point of view) from there with the music choices, finally ending on some version of Pinkie Pie's Smile song before both my chat AND laptop were tired of the music and we went back to the game music.

It was a few days later that I finally beat that race for good. And I did it without hitting one fucking bird either. Chat was like "Take a bird hit and go for the balloon, you're dodging too much." Well I showed them I knew what I was doing.

It's a magical moment to not only achieve something for the first time ever, but to do with with people watching, be it from a stream or at a friends house. To have witnesses to your accomplishments. And even better when your plan works and you realize you're not crazy for trying to do it your way.

Nothing hear on that game?

I love Metroidvania type games. Especially the 2D ones with hand drawn environments that are animated.
Reminds me of Dust, and Vanillaware games.

This game is a work of art, and full of cute moments as well as feels.
My favourite thing right now, is the way Ori gasps for air after swimming underwater.

I really need to get this, everyone says it's a great game, story, and piece of art.

Well, if you go by her Please Help Me!! super move and the Word of God, her species is all-female and (when in human form) all generally share her fur pattern regardless of body shape, so gee I wonder why.

Not even close to being feared. According to the lore, there's protection and rights for her kind in the U.S.

thats if you look at her bandmates/followers background, one of them worked in a circus, while another was a "pet" for a rich family before she escaped. The others seem to live normal lax lives living with understanding humans.

Though to be fair, Lucy was apparently treated well by the circus she worked for.

That's that one's name, for the record, and the one who was kept as a rich douche's pet is Alto, but it's also never been said where Alto's from–she could be from somewhere that doesn't have catgirl protection laws in place.

>In Tim’s speech he makes a quip about how developing art in games is a much harder job now than it was a long time ago. He accurately states that making art assets now is much harder and takes more people to do than it did in the past. After that though, his sockpuppet jumps in. Now this sock-puppet itself is a pretty sore point from the get-go, considering that #NotYourShield posters have consistently had their ‘minority’ status questioned and it’s even been suggested more than once that #NYS supporters are #GG sock-puppets themselves.

>Anyway, moving past the first offence, the next is a joke about how many GamerGators (used stylised spelling here as this is how the industry refers to them) it would take to screw in a light bulb or design a character or something. >Being as big as #GG is, it would be expected that some jokes would be made at the hashtags expense during a big conference. However, the sock-puppet then went on to say (paraphrasing): that it would take 42 gators to do it and two more to tweet #NotYourShield.

What is it with the gaming's greatest icons turning their backs on their fans and customers lately?

It makes you think whether SJWs are as harmless and ineffective as some would like you to think, or are they truly beginning to influence and gain control over entertainment media, and not in a good way.

Paying lip service to markets they have been having trouble tapping into. They won't use their core base no matter what they say. They could personally shit in all their mouths and they'd still sell those games.

But the female and to a large extent minority markets are untapped mines and if you gotta pretend to give a shit about social issues to get them to buy your products, you're going to do it.

Pretty much, I talk about how astounded I am by the amount of negative reviews this game got and how practically no one takes into consideration the story.

I liked it. What about you guys? Did you guys play it? What did you think?

ID: f8400  No.632

I never played it, but maybe I'll have a lunch hour free sometime soon to run through the whole game.

Brag about your biggest and smallest acts of badassery right here. Any game is fair game.

Got a copy of New Leaf. Haven't played since the GameCube days and oh my goodness everything is great. Five days in and I already upgraded my house once, figured out the rocks hiding ore and bells, already caught a couple rare Stringfish (worth 15,000 bells apiece!), and started my public works.
