There's  nothing wrong with most day 1 DLC if you actually know how game development and the industry works.

Indeed.

The current game industry is a steaming pile of shit at the moment and game development is rushed as shit these days because the spastic little gremlins on the ground can't calm their fucking tits if you even mention the word "wait."

And naturally, most companies and publishers these days sell their steaming piles of shit because the spastic little gremlins on the ground buy them over and over, thus setting a trend that said companies know they can bargain on.

Nothing wrong with splintered and cut content being lobbed off from the full game and being sold back to people alongside a game that's charged the full price as if it were a complete game.

Not at all. Totally.

don't you mean star wars battlefield?

because that doesn't look like battlefront to me
but the tie fighter sound

Shocking, considering Battlefront was basically Battlefield anyway.

So yeah. Neat little time killer of a game I might have mentioned a while back. Basically, eat stuff and try to be the most morbidly obese cell of the pack among other players. It's been updated quite a bit since I mentioned it, now having a basic party function.

Copy pasta that into the dropdown box when you hit join a party.

Honestly. Couple months back, I was bored as shit too. I was looking for some magical human interaction via co-op or some kind of multiplayer.

Then I decided, eh, fuck it. The game's a grindfest. People don't talk in grindfests. They're just soulless automations.

Just today actually. Technically you could say I bought it online, which I did, sort of. Filled in all the digital paperwork for it.

A $724 set of books, covering all the information taught from grade 2 to 12, alongside basic level university grade information. About 25,000 pages of information, diagrams, and explanations on every subject you could ever hope to cover.

They're like supplementary encyclopedias or textbooks for school, basically. I bought them for my little niece.

Her education is now completely covered, on whatever she's learning. Dropped them off yesterday, technically, going by the time currently.

Should have seen her face m8. Hmm. Shoulda seen the fuss my sister made too. Doesn't like it when I do stuff like that for them cause they've no way to repay me.

Money well spent, I say.

By the way, the age of consent in Florida is 18.

She's a fucking idiot and I have no pity for her.
Considering from what I've known of her, she had relationships with mostly 17 year old individuals. Her charges would have been different in most other states.

Interesting choice of map.

States with lower ages of consent are green, which is associated with "good"
States with higher ages of consent are red, which is associated with "bad"

Hmm.

And yet medical centers all round the world have red for their signs.
Well you don't go to the hospital when you're feeling good...

Of course not. But if we're taking into account that supposedly, red universally means "bad," then by that logic walking into a building with a big red fucking sign on it is probably rather stupid of you. It just seems like you're being nitpicky over the colours they picked, when frankly, it could mean just about anything.

You know how pressure gauges are based right? A low colour like green on the bottom, with a red colour being higher, up at the top.

Same with the weather network. Lows are green, highs are red.

You'd think that as a firefighter, you wouldn't go around starting fires for the sake of making money.

You'd think that as a doctor, you wouldn't abuse the people you come across and are supposed to be caring for.

But alas, that doesn't always seem to be the case.
Those aren't comparable, at all.

But it's still a case of people being irresponsible even if you figured they wouldn't be despite training.

All the more reason to make Rangers only straight, white, Christian men. That way we don't upset anyone's cultural, social, and instinctual positions.
You would think after months of grueling, intensive training they would have developed some degree of discipline, especially toward fellow soldiers.

Actually, they refer to things we already know about. One is Installation 03's activation index, one is the eye of a War sphinx (A battlesuit used by forerunners capable of destroying continents. This thing was infantry, bear in mind) and the others are more references to the Forerunner saga so the hardcore lore fans can giggle with glee at knowing about things the scientists don't.

Like how 343GS is still alive, for example.

I don't remember the war sphinx eye one.

But Verb said "Spartans."

Considering that he's not exactly a fan of Halo, seeing him say "Spartans" is weird.

Like, fuck. I doubt if even half the average playerbase of Halo even knows the codename the soldiers go by.
It isn't like it's plastered all over the games or anything

If there's one thing about people Lemon?

It's that 90% of them are really bad with seeing the obvious if it's presented to them. Especially if it's a sign or something.

You can tell a lot of people here don't get out much.

Now here's the interesting part.

Are you implying that "getting out" much is important so that we can educate ourselves on the current degradation of language that the younger generations seem so fond of?

Or are we merely discussing the black and white simplicity of "basement dwellers?"
Just because not everyone types in text walls like you do doesn't mean that using abbreviations is a degradation of language.

If you watch things like I do then you'd notice that the older generations don't use shortenings and abbreviations so much. They're still used, obviously. But not to the extent that it practically becomes cancer.

I overhear younger kids talking a fair bit. That shit is leeching into younger generations and their actual physical speech. No shit, I did a double take when one of them started using "lol" and "omg." And these aren't isolated incidents either.

So as a matter of fact, yes, it does. Because the older generation knows where to draw the line. Kids don't. And if you're watching the younger generations you'll notice that they're all sorts of fucked up.

To which I'd say, "degraded."
I have literally never met a kid who uses text abbreviations in their speech. Ever. Any kids I've HEARD about doing that get ridiculed for it because it's retarded. They are in the minority and will grow out of it.

I remember 10 years ago when a kid with a cell phone was a minority and that they'd "grow out of it."

Yeah, that prediction just turned out swimmingly. Rule of thumb with society. If it's stupid, and a shitty trend, it's not going to improve. It's going to catch on. Those kids didn't just pick that habit up out of thin air. I seriously wouldn't put it past things.

If "le ebin memes" can catch on all the way up here in a small farming community then I shudder to think what it's like in the populated zones. It's only gonna go downhill from here. Watch. I'm telling ya.
You sound like a grumpy old fart; probably because you are.

What exactly is wrong with kids having cell phones? Don't be a dumb fuck unless you can provide a good reason you feel the way you do.

Cell phones have proven to be distracting influences. And that's for adults. I know people who've been fired from their jobs because instead of paying attention they were texting. The laws of not texting while driving where made for a reason. For fuck's sake, last year I got hit by a truck by being driven by a grown adult who was texting as he rounded a corner.

 How do you think that's going to effect a child's development process?

When they have such a distracting influence on their attention? When from day one, not, say, year 15 when they're older, they have internet slang and all that other stuff being shown to them as common place?

How about incredibly easy access to internet? Access to answers, learning instead, to be a better searcher, than a thinker?

My reasons aren't founded on baseless old fart excuses. They're founded on reality. You'd have to be seriously retarded not to even remotely think that those machines aren't having an impact on younger kids as they use them.
Yeah, lots of things are distracting influences, cell phones are just one of those things. That is up to the parent  to teach their kids how to not be a complete fuckwit. If they can't learn that then it's their own fault. Cell phones are a fantastically good thing, and are pros outweigh the cons by a metric shit ton.

Kids will grow out of it. That is just the truth. They will. And as I said, the kids who actually use internet slang in person are in the minority and are ridiculed for it.

As I said about cell phones, the internet's pros outweigh the cons by a metric SHIT TON. You seem to think that if you took away cell phones and the internet suddenly society will become more intelligent and better at critical thinking. The fact is that people will always be fucking retarded with or without cell phones, the internet, or whatever.

Your posts in this thread are a grade A example of that.

I'm aware that the average mass of people tend to be less intelligent. And I agree, yes. The internet's pros outweigh the cons. When you actively favor and use the pros to your advantage. But when you use the cons, it doesn't get better. It gets worse.

The stupid people, get worse, not better. And no, they won't grow out of it. You know why?

Older people speak like that. They may not act like it, but they speak like it, on the internet. The point being, kids have a reinforcement. And, if you start a kid off from a young age, when their brain is open like a sponge, they are going to be programmed, biologically, to grow used to that sort of thing, which will only be taken further by societal trends and norms.

You wanna talk about how effective biological programming is? Why do you think most people are comfortable, with waking up early, going to work, taking roughly three breaks, two shorts, and lunch? It's not because it's simply normal.

It's because they grew used to that routine when they were young, in school. Wake up early. Go to school. Recess. School. Lunch. School. Recess. School and then home. Sounds pretty similar to how most jobs function these days, doesn't it?

I'm not up for the abolishment of cell phones entirely. Nor the internet. I'm up for the usage of them responsibly. Handing one to a kid and saying "do whatever" is stupid.

But then again, as you said, most people are stupid.
Getting up early is incredibly easy and doesn't require drastic biological programming from a young age to get used to.

The bottom line is the kids will likely grow out of stupid shit like using text speak in person, and the kids that actually do that are in the minority.

I agree with you that parents should encourage their kids to not fuck with their phone all day but you are making it this astronomical travesty when it's really not that big of a fucking deal.

So my point is using text abbreviations is not a big fucking deal and you are getting asshurt over nothing.

I ain't even McMad about any of that. I just find it funny is all. And I'm seriously hoping that it doesn't become a widespread trend, which I have little faith in considering how retarded things are getting these days.

Tell you what Jim.

Give it a decade. 10 years.

If text lingo to actual speech hasn't caught on, or isn't starting to catch on, I'll eat a piece of my hat. And if it has, I'll just laugh at you by saying "lel."

Deal?
