The SPUFserver was rather populated earlier so I jumped on and somebody unboxed two unusuals. It was like Christmas 2010 all over again.

They buffed crit rate boosts. +1 = 12.5% chance +2= 50% chance. +3= 100% chance. Focus Energy gives a +2 and Scope Lens gives a +1. And personal stat drops are unaffected by crits. Which do 2.25x as opposed to 1.50x because of Sniper. And four pokemon total resist dragon/water: Empoleon, Azumarill, Whimsicott (which is now grass/fairy), Ferrothorn. And I have a shiny one (adamant, granted, but waterfall + outrage + return = tee hee) So he's even more worst in gen 6? Great.

Kingdra is literally the WORST.

If it's something I haven't done yet, sure.

I imagine it would be even better/worse if you were drunk and it was 3am.

I did some playing around in walkway. The Short Circuit takes less than 2 seconds (~1.7) to kill a soldier from full health. It takes three point-blank shotgun shots (1.875 seconds) to kill a soldier, assuming all or most of the pellets connect. I couldn't find the speed of switching weapons on the wiki but it takes two point bland shotgun shots (1.25 seconds) or two melee hits (1.6 seconds) to kill an Engineer from full health, assuming he's not using the Gunslinger, which he probably is.

So I think this game has had at least one major content update since I last played it so we should probably play a multiplayer game together and figure out what the fuck we're doing.

I thought of a possible nerf for the new Short Circuit. Firstly, make it so that your sentry is disabled while firing it. Secondly, make it only destroy non-critical explosives. Suddenly the Kritzkrieg becomes a viable engi nest destroyer.

Can the Short Circuit destroy thrown sandviches?

The new Diamondback is amazing.

The weapon changes please me. Time to go test out the Short Circuit and Diamondback. Also here's a list of the new festive weapons: Force-a-Nature Black Box Flare Gun Eyelander Gloves of Running Urgently Wrangler Crusader's Crossbow Jarate Sapper

The Battalion's Backup and Concheror changes sound iffy. Crit-a-Cola sounds alright probably. Diamondback sounds great. Not sure what the guillotine change is. Short Circuit sounds great but based on the video that Raz posted it looks terrifyingly powerful. Soda Popper is good.

Unless we're getting a really late update, it doesn't look like Smissmass is coming this week

Picked up Mirror's Edge.

A friend of mine sent me this. It's not related to the SteamOS but I didn't want to necro the Hardware Beta thread.

Yeah, I'm probably not going to craft any badges because of this. I've picked up the Dishonored Brigmore Witches DLC and a 2-pack of Super Hexagon. Anybody want my spare Super Hexagon?

Shadow of the Colossus Monster Hunter Also Battlefront

Please don't say that ever again.

Meh. I haven't played the Super Mario Galaxy games. I'm still waiting for Ganondorf to be announced. I'm worried that he'll be left out since they're trying to cut down the roster size and he's sorta similar to Captain Falcon, who is probably more used. At least I'll still have Megaman.

Oh god. Cell, you have my deepest condolences.
