    RAID WWII

    Not gonna lie, I do feel bummed that they just reused payday's engine. Paydays engine has very famous bugs and difficulties handling a game of this size, so why they'd willingly adopt all those problems rather than start afresh with a better engine I'll never know. Of course, I'm making an adventure game in Clickteam Fusion rather than learning a more appropriate engine so maybe I don't have the right to criticize.

    Destiny General

    Well, it is a beta. Game wasn't bad, in my opinion. Very beautiful artwork and setting. I liked NPC Cade, both his character design and personality, and to my surprise I actually didn't mind the Ghost sidekick robot. Would have preferred closer to Cortana than Orbis, but he was cutely earnest rather than annoying. I played the third character, with the yellow, and I liked his starter rifle because it had almost no recoil. Didn't like any of his available secondaries, and his tertiary didn't pack enough of a punch for how ammo inefficient it was. Both problems will likely be solved as more guns are released, it looks like the sort of game that has MMO-style loot drops, so I'm sure in time I'll get guns I gel with. Also I could use that starter rifle for the rest of my career. I liked his health regeneration field, less enthused with his flaming-melee-mode. Got really frustrated because none of my teammates could figure out that you should hide when last man standing and wait for your teammates to respawn. Jetpacks were fun but a bit floaty, had trouble controlling where exactly I wanted to go, but I'm sure I'll get better at that after practice. All in all, it was nice to try, I'm considering getting it because I could always use more PvE shooters. Edit: How didn't I notice Cade was voiced by Nathan Fillion? No wonder I liked him!

    Marc Laidlaw leaks HL2:E3's story

    Valve: Hold my beer. Or don't, because I'm gonna keep drinking it and ignoring this.
  7. Capture sounds like an awesome idea. Wish more games had something like that.

    Overwatch

    The one thing I want in Overwatch is 24, 36, or even 64-player servers. They'll probably need larger maps to make it work, but the best part of TF2 is when there is uncontrollable chaos on the battlefield and nobody feels this pressure to be godly because everyone washes out in the spam.

    The Library of Babel

    Aren't you going to give credit to the Library of Babel, from where you clearly stole this post? I love this site. I used to send pages containing my friend's fanfictions and remind them they need to give credit for plagiarizing their story from this website. I mean, look, the Library's been carrying that exact text since May 2015, how can you claim you just wrote your fanfiction last night?
  10. What the fuck is the point of giftwrap then?
  11. Damn, I have that hat but it's untradeable. I wish I could give it to you. If gift wrap is cheaper that buying the hat, feel free to gimme some giftwrap and I'll send it to you otherwise free of charge. Was it one of the hats that you can get by playing a map and grabbing presents? It must have been obtainable via presents at some point, that's apparently how I got an untradeable/uncraftable version.
  12. Sorry about that :( Here are two other GIF-heavy articles, if you're hoping to test whether the GIFs are causing it. If not, I need to figure out what this specific article did differently from the others and fix the problem.
  13. Can you read this version any better? It's probably all the GIFs. I was splurging because my new computer has two graphics cards and can crank them out in seconds.
  14. Finished my Lucioball placement matches, I got into high diamond! 

     

  15. Today Medic talks about the underwhelming vampires and werewolves of Skyrim, and a new SPUF of Legend pits everyone from the three SPUF Hunger Games against each other in a massive battle royale!
  16. Yesterday Medic talks about making real-life re-Lucas of Borderlands weapons, and today SilverWolf discusses the most-played healer in Paladins! Pip's the only character I played during my brief stint in Paladins, and I appreciated how he wasn't a clone of any other healers I could think of from other games, plus healing grenades as a concept are sorely underused. Area-of-effect splash damage weapons feel like a shoe in for a novel healing mechanic, but most games restrict explosions to the DPS. Im super out of the loop regarding Paladins; did they recover from their terrible business decisions or does the game still suffer from them? Also, how similar is Grover to Lucio? Lucio's made me addicted to unlimited area-of-effect healing, so I could use another game with that sort of character.
  17. Healed my 10 millionth point of damage as Lucio tonight. I miss TF2

      It has a black guy with a cosmetic that gives him dreads, isn't that close enough?

  18. The article was initially written in 2014. It was the oldest article in our Pending queue, having sat there for almost 3 years. I'm surprised we finally published it, figured it was a running gag that only people who checked our Pending queue would ever see. You can tell it's old because John Caveson answered the question, and he hasn't been on staff in years :D
  19. Also a new SPUF of Legend, basically me just apologizing for my lack of content and explaining my situation right now. Don't worry, it's mostly good news :D
  20. Today I learned stamda is responsible for the renamed Candy Cane meme on r/tf2 https://www.reddit.com/r/tf2/comments/3njdat/butt_hol_origins/

  21. Dammit, sorry D: you think after 4 years of this I'd remember
  22. Finally finished all the coding for my next video game. Now just waiting for my friend to finish the soundtrack
