When I created Zikar all those years ago as an Energy/Energy blaster, I knew what I really wanted... white energy blasts. Needless to say that Power Customisation was extremely popular with me.
But anyway, Zikar's energy powers are that, he can control internal energies and hurl them or cloak his fist in them or even use them to fly by creating a field around himself an levitating it.
At any rate, when CoV came around, I decided to make an evil alternate reality version of him called Zykat.
He'd need similar powers, so it had to be a Dominator since they had energy assault. But what primary... hmmm... Gravity Control! So yes, he doesn't control gravity, but rather he uses his energy to lift, crush and contain enemies, sort of like he does when he's flying.
So, Praetoria is now here, and I decided I need another version of Zikar. Settling on Zikal, his power had to be energy related too... but I decided to take a different tact with this guy... Kinetic/Elec scrapper.
So yeah, I've managed to re-purpose 3 sets into "energy"

Didn't read the whole thing, but it looks pretty detailed.

Second one we've had in three years. Lots of trees down, lots of houses damaged. No such thing as global warming or dangerous weather patterns!
Note: I'm not arguing global warming, nor should we go down that route, I'm just saying tornadoes have nothing to do with it

Or maybe we are just a little insignificant game and no one really cares if the new features of a game no one has ever cared to play is made by one unheard of studio or another.

Maybe it's a portmanteau?

MORBO: That is not a word!
Edit: Just realised it's not technically a contraction as that would require the omission of a letter. -
If it has more action that the first, then I'll enjoy it.

Quote:My guess is, if they did that, they'd just not let you go into the destroyed building. Maybe put a force field around it.Originally Posted by Schismatrix
Though it would lead to some cognitive dissonance as you hop around in the rubble and everyone else sees you bouncing through the walls of an intact building. Or standing on top of a burning (for you) building and have the fire chew through your health next to someone standing there unharmed. That could be sort of fun.

The more I think about it, the more I wonder Diminishing Returns is really as bad as people say... I mean, it doesn't effect a solo character right? Just buffs from the same powers? So, only a few powers would be effected by this, or teams that had say, two bubblers or something... but even then it wouldn't negate the benefit of two bubblers completely, just take the team down a notch.
Am I missing something? -

Quote:I like the ones that talk about args... they make me laugh.Originally Posted by Samuel_Tow
Yeah, unless otherwise specified, commands which take a variable will just dump the variable they have at the moment when invoked without any parameters. Things like /netgraph, /showfps, /forward, /autorun and so forth do that. Certain commands have unique messages in those instances, such as "This command takes 1 parameters, you gave 0 parameters. Try /command <parameter> instead."

There's a slash command
On:
/showfps 1
Off:
/showfps 0 -

I think Techbot means a level beyond Ultra mode. That the Ultra of Ultra Mode is not what can really be pushed from it. Think of it like... Ascended Ultra Mode.
Or Incarnate Ultra Mode! -
Quote:You're misremembering, my rig can play Ultra mode maxed out with decent FPS just about everywhere.Originally Posted by Techbot Alpha
Wasn't it said that the 'High Ultra' end of Ultra mode was actually nigh un-runnable even on the top end PCs of today? And that they'd put in stuff for next-gen cards? I may be mis-remembering, but I'd swear it was said somewhere.

I don't think anyone would have called that...

Quote:As someone who recently reinstalled Mass Effect via Steam, I can say that I was never required to do any verification/activations/registrations of any sort.Originally Posted by Dark One
The normal Mass Effect PC version has SecuROM v7.37.0012 w/5 activations. According to ReclaimYourGame.com. I see no indication that they would remove it from the Steam version, IMO.

Quote:Steam has it's own DRM system. It's fairly unobtrusive and games can be played offline.Originally Posted by BlackArachnia
I have a question about the use of Steam/Valve as a download site. Does it include DRMs of the games you buy?
Edit: Unless, as stated, a developer's DRM supersedes it. -

I see. Seems more like after DBZ was out people thought hey this is kind of similar to XYZ let's see what other parallels we can draw where none actually exist. Much like how people apply religious and/or racist connotations to completely mundane things.

I think it's likely due to Phantom Army, since he can't actually attack them effectively, he runs away.
Yes, it's dumb, but I'm betting that's the reason. -
Psst, behind you.
