Veez

Whatever happened to that Pokemon Showdown Tourney we're doing? Is that on hiatus, or did we just forget it existed?

From what I can tell, thats how it will be in Beyond Earth.

Some older players really despise the limit on the tiles, because previous Civ games let you place an infinite amount of units on one tile, leading to Stacks of Doom.

Meanwhile on CivFanatics, Civ 4 fanatics are coming out of the woodworks to bitch about Beyond Earth being One Unit per Tile.

Also double post, sue me.

I'm with Ryn, all this computer stuff is bullshit

If you think your computer is bullshit, I'll gladly take it off your hands.

 

ELI5: What the hell does this all mean?

 

Witty essentially said Forum Administrator == Scrub

Cmndr says that Witty is actually not witty at all, and he is really just spewing out a bunch of words that don't mean anything.

...I think. Iunno, I'm not a nerd.

Only problem I have is that its $50. I hope there is a sale relatively soon after its release.

Is that what I think it is?

Holy shit, I think its an Alpha Centauri successor.

Monster Dong Two: Electric Dongaloo

Well, you know what they say.

....oops.

I meant Sheik, but I like that better, so I'm not gonna fix that.

Apparently people are bitching that Zero Suit Samus is wearing what appears to be high heels, even though they are supposed to be jet boots.

Seriously, don't people have anything better to do?

Alternatively, how do you guys feel that characters like Shrek and Zero Suit are now separate from the original?

Picture of new observer mode being added in: 

Also, Multiplayer will have the option to disable Titans.

While I can't say if the game is better or worse than what it was in Alpha, I can say I had a much more enjoyable experience back in the Alpha days. Maybe that could be chalked up to nostalgia, but personally, I think it was because how the game was more or less a mystery to us. Digging out that first diamond was something to remember, the fear of the dark was bigger, the threat of dying made sure you knew where your house was if you died, digging out a hole in the wall to look for coal was the ideal way to spend the first night, dungeons seemed like an impossible task, and so on so forth.

Nowadays? We know all the little details of the game, and the ideal way of going about our survival. Charcoal and beds have diminished the threat of night, and we know the ideal way of finding diamonds. The difficulty doesn't scale well, and the mobs require additional bonus's in order to be threatening. Stacking foods has made it easier to recover health, and potions give you an inmate advantage over the rest of the game, and other players, if in a multiplayer server. People use mods to try and replicate the feeling of the unknown, but with not all too much success, depending on the user and the mod. 

This is all my opinion, and your free to your own, but this is really the main reason I can't find that much enjoyment in Minecraft anymore.

 Multiple countries tried to take that route and looked what happened to them. 

Can you give an example please of some of these countries?

Mainly because the novelty ran out.

Holy shit yes!

I still have my original AoM and Titans Expansion disk.

So, my horse has gone missing. Its a white horse wearing diamond armor. If you see him, you'll be rewarded.

How can they talk about fabulous shinies with out including this one?
