  1. Flight sticks, any recommendations?

      The Logitech doesn't seem very fun since there isn't a second controller for throttle.

      That was my thought. I guess I'll save up since I feel that might come in handy. Keyboard inputs seems to change it a bunch.

      The Logitech is really the only not HOTAS (hands on throttle and stick) controller I'd recommend simply because it's got tons of base buttons you can use as modifiers.

  2. From the dev/pub view, I'm an actual lost sale. Pirating is a maybe. Quite sure this was gone over in the pirating thread.
  3. He can't. I got one wild game ready. I can make it two wild games and Wally will like them.
  4. So I took a gander at the email that Nintendo sent out about the sales. I know they were terrible but damn. Why so reserved on the software sales? I don't like to buy used since that is seriously worst than pirating the games but I just can't work with a big maybe that the games I want will go on sale by my flight time on December 18th. Oh sure I can buy one new game but in the holiday season, it is kind of odd to get a game with no discount.
  5. i7 950, 1366 socket. When I got it I was under the impression that it'll last me till the day it died.
  6. Yeah? At the level I want to play at, it has been running piss poor (>30 FPS to 20 FPS). Besides, 3-4 years for a GPU seems about right. Looking into it some more, I can get away with just a new GPU. The PCI-E thing wasn't as a big deal as I thought it was. Maybe <5% performance hit, if even. A GTX 760 could go for $250, so not too bad. Or I could just roll with my GPU, console style, and roll with it for 7-8 years.
  7. Arma 3 just crashed which makes me think I should upgrade too but since my mobo PCI Express slots are only 2.0 and all newer cards are running off 3.0, I feel like its not worth it unless I upgrade my entire computer. Oh bother. So much for a cheap upgrade since I'll have to replace my CPU, Mobo and GPU. Not sure whats the story with my RAM and I've been eying modular PSU as well so there is another pretty penny. I like my case and I have the parts to repair the stupid shit I've done to it but it would feel wrong to have all these good parts laying to waste... I guess I could sell it to my friend. It would be a hefty upgrade for him I think. In short... I have a PC build inbound. Good thing PS4 has no gaems. Planning a June build date. In the mean time, I'll just lower my settings to standard or something. Edit: Aiming for this build with some modifications. Cheaper mobo, GTX 760 will drop it by maybe $200. Since I don't need HDD/SSD or a disk drive, it'll be a further ~$200. Of course I could always go to AMD CPUs which will drop the price waaay down but I'm not sure if I want to go that route (It would in essence give me something like this). Tough call.
  8. PXOD folks, don't lose your way.
  9. I don't think the Life servers have those keys enabled. Kind of like how the stances are much more limited. I'm also game for the group but I for sure got to get a better handle on the gun play before I hop in.
  10. I ripped mines out a week or two ago since it just wasn't worth it anymore since the fruits were pretty bland compared to their peak. It also gave me a chance to try green tomatoes... I can't do them. At least how I am making them. Right now I'm just growing my mints and rosemary. I should also mention the green manure crop I am doing. Its a legume mix that my department didn't want anymore so I scored that and am using. Its a beaut to see. I'm going to turn them in sometime in late Jan to early Feb and let them decompose for about a week. I'll then cover with more compose and mulch. I'll then plant whatever on the compost and have the plants punch through to the mineral soil underneath. The compose/mulch combo is a test to see if I can bury the powdery mildew that really wrecked me this year. Main reason is I want to grow watermelons and I know they'll get hammered if I am not careful. I'm gunning for a June/July harvest. August is pushing it since I'm planning on being out of SLO by then.
  11. What are the late adopters? Ents?
  12. I rarely heard anything bad about EVGA cards.
  13. You see this sort of shit all the time. At least these guys are up front about it. Still nobody should take this job if they have a brain.
  14. I was trying this with Contrast yesterday and it wasn't working. They could have fixed it. Can you give it a shot and report back by Turkey Day? It for sure playing a role in me getting a PS+ sub now than later. Though I suppose I could get away with it if I trust one of you to load up my profile on your PS4 (Hurhur)?

    Black Friday

    All I want is either Fire Emblem or one of the Etrian Odyssey games... I guess I could do the Gamestop B2G1 used games thing and potentially grab them all since I will be there for the PS+ thing. It'll be around $60 for three games which truth be told isn't that bad but I'm not planning on spending that much (And it would be ill advised).
  16. So I'm starting to feel bad for having Adblock Plus for Youtube for my favorite channels. There as to be a way to automate the disabling of ABP for the channels I like... right?

      It would be nice if there was(and if someone knows, let's me know) but I've been just doing it myself.

       

      Can you add specific urls to an OK list?

      Do they get paid because of page hits or because someone actually watched the ad?

      As far as I know, youtube gets paid for people actually seeing ads, they get paid for page views

    Black Friday

    Where are the 3DS games at?
  18. Just to make sure, I can get PS+ and get whatever games that is up for grabs till I get my PS4/Vita? Not to mention the thigns I can play on my PS3. Kind of hard to pass up on the Black Friday deal. Hopefully it'll appear on Amazon or something so I don't have to go out.
  19. In and chances are I got my wildcard game picked out.
  20. http://www.independent.ie/entertainment/jack-gleeson-ditching-acting-after-game-of-thrones-29781770.html This is quite sad but I can see why.
  21. Why am I driving tens of kilometers in Arma 3? Life servers man... it allows me to relive my life as a courier... while driving 200 kmph down a single lane road. No wonder why I flipped and rolled my SUV when I hit a bump at an weird angle. Oddly, I fucking survived that accident. The fine fellows who came on scene to upright my SUV were amazed on how I got to the position I was in. I should invest some time into some bang bang servers and groups. I also should invest in a better mouse and a flight stick so I can play better and actually fly a damn plane. It might even make flying a helicopter easier. Learning how to accelerate and decelerate to get to the spot I want is a challenge. At least I'm not crashing.
  22. Just go into a holding pattern for now. No reason to go to Best Buy on Black Friday. It'll only end in anger since they for sure will use a ticket system. Unless they implement some wrist band sort of thing or something, the first few people in line will become a horde who will eat up the tickets.
  23. Not much is known about the game like if it will come to the West so no thread yet... Please don't be shit. Please come to the West. Make me BELIEVE.
  24. I forgot to mention that when I went to get my trade in, I had a chance to have a look at a PS4. First thing that came to mind is "Holy shit, it is small". Sure I could just look up the dimensions but to see it in person is another thing entirely. It'll be odd to see a slim version in the future/
