« on: December 13, 2019, 01:31:06 AM »
So yeah, if you saw the Game Awards last night, then you noticed that Microsoft dropped by and showed off their refrigerator of a new console.

They continue the run of retarded names (like Rambo retarded) and call it the Xbox Series X.... Ima just go with Xbrick.

Gaming / Mad Max. The first TRUE cult hit of current gen.
« on: September 02, 2017, 06:34:31 PM »
Commercial underrated and prolly underperforming. This game is actually pretty damn good.

Its visuals manage to make a desert apocalyptic world feel lively and interesting, amd also a bit colorful like the latest film.

It may lack a bit in terms of things to do, but it does bolster a decent story, great vehicular combat amd control, a nice fighting system. Even if its a total rip off of batman..

Playing this game through again, showed me a nice smoothness to it. Rarely do I feel that these days. Especialy in a movie licensed game. And that says something.

The Flood / People say I am crazy for taking this job.
« on: August 19, 2017, 09:08:13 PM »


Offshore. People around me typically equate this with the Deep Water Horizon disaster. Like, how or even why would I take a job in such an unforgiving environment?

Knowing that something wrong could happen at any moment.

A fire could errupt from one of my seperators, my booster gas compressors could explode, etc.

Truth is. It can happen.  No doubt about it. The threat is always there. That is why safety is the BIGGEST priority in my field! Making sure we adhear to BSEE standards, follow API 14C, and general common sence creates a better place.

Deep Water Horizon was a drilling platform. They have a far more grueling job than I do. I am an operator on the production platform Stampede. (As pictured above)

Out buisness, is to take the fluids from the well, that contracting drillers (Deep Water Horizon) find and prepare for us to use. We take it from the well, introduce it into a process of heating and seperation.

This is done by way of seperators, heating and cooling exchangers, treatment, sea water injection, chemical injection, etc. It is a very meticulous and detailed operation. Takes a while to understand.

In a nut shell. The fuilds seperate into: oil, gas, water. Oil is the black stuff, the gas is the invisible stuff, and water is..... water.
——————

Life offshore is like nothing youve experienced. Nothing but water for miles and miles. In the clearest blue you can possibly see. Wales, sharks, you name it; its there to see. Truely a wonderful spectacle!

You're feed like a king. 5 times a day. Snacks of what ever you want, when ever you want. Lots of people gain weight out there.

But despite all of that. The schedue is big factor for most. You work 14/14. That is 14 days at work, 14 days at home. It is tough to be away from family all of that time. But let me tell you, the payment and the time you spend at home. Is SOOOO worth it!!!

On average a new person in the field makes roughly $2,500 a week. Plus expence, benifits, etc. (Wood Group PSN pay and benifit info)

Before I start to sound like a recruiter, Ill go back to my point. Why do I do this job?


Not for the thrill, the view, or experience. But for family. No other job has givin me the time I have had with my family like this.


Sure, bad things can and will happen. No doubt. Its how you carry yourself and do your job and how you help others on the platform that will determine that.

Gaming / Deus Ex: Mankind Devided <MEGATHREAD>
« on: August 23, 2016, 01:01:32 PM »
Discuss plot points, great missions, or your utmost disdain for this great game. And yes it is great, don't kid yourself....

I have played for about 6 hours now, and it has been awesome! Combat feels a lot less clunky, and the atmosphere and side missions have been given a better attention to detail to make them much more memorable. One is working for find a serial killer who has been leaving bodies behind with all of their Augs missing.... But the biggest character right now is the world. Its like the Augmentation Holocaust, whereas the Augmented people are considered outcasts, regularly degraded to that of animals, constantly harassed, segregated, even to the point of being moved into a separate "gheto city" for their kind. Which is also monitored by the UN-augmented. Its all painting a picture of the world now through Adams eyes. Even the random NPC's you walk past mock you with derogatory names, and you are stopped all the time when switched hub areas by the police, always asking for your papers.

The Flood / What the fuck you been up to?
« on: July 13, 2016, 06:54:16 PM »
Horry kreep, its been a while since I stopped by and said hi. What have you been up to!?

Yeah their E3 conference did end kinda weak. But according to a rumor, RDR2 was supposed to be announced right at the end, it was to be their show stopper. However, it was pulled at the last minute because it featured a guy shooting up a saloon and resembeled too much of what happened in Orlando....

I mean, it seems logical when you think about it. They featured a game twice, and far apart from its debut trailer. Just plain coincedence? Who knows!

Gaming / Forced Inclusivness in Games?
« on: May 11, 2016, 09:01:55 PM »
I dont know if you have noticed lately, there are many characters out there that just seem to have a forced notion of "oh, btw im gay..."

Take The Division for example. At one moment during the story missions, the lady in the medicle wing just at random during a exposition conversation just happens to throw in that she has a "wife". It just seems like a forced, unneeded tid bit of information that holds no sway, or any resemblense of impact. Now I understand that The Division is not the best (or good) when it comes to story telling, but its not the only example. They pretty much sum themselves up to "hey, im gay. Why? *claps hands* Thats why!"

After recent events with people screaming for more LGBT type characters in their entertainment, it seems like its being slipped in as an after thought with no care, or nuance to make this a true trait of that character. Take The Last of Us for example

*SPOILER ALERT*
Spoiler
In the left behind DLC, Ellie has a moment with her best friend. After we learn that she is leaving to join the Fire Flies, the pair start to dance on a glass table to some classics. After a minute, and with emotions riled up, Ellie softly says "Dont go." Which Riley then rips off her dog tags; signifying that she changed her mind. Which then urges Ellie to kiss her friend...

Now, I am no gay expert. But that was a DAMN effective moment. It introduced another side to a character that I though I knew pretty well. It sheds a new light on her personality and makes me understand her delimma at the end, and even in the main game even more.

Its moments like that when diversity is done right. So when ever I see a character casually toss his/her/both sexuality trading card on the table out of the blue. I cant help but want to smash my head against a refrigerator door a bit. If people are so gung ho to have a more diverse cast, why are they forcing notions of sexuality in a very contrived way?

It serves no purpose and works against what they're trying to accomplish. What do you think on the matter?

Gaming / Really hope DOOM doesnt fade into obscurity...
« on: May 02, 2016, 11:56:06 AM »
With the MP Beta having some questionable mechanics from its outsourced developer. It makes me wonder that if the SP is nothing short of spectacular on a massive scale, that this could be another one of their games that just slowly fades into the background and forgotten. The same thing happened to Rage. Really hope this brings ID back to the forefront on shooters.

The Flood / Considering Starting Again...
« on: October 27, 2015, 03:50:37 PM »
Now before you start, I am considering starting all over again. Bring my channel back to life and get back to it, becuase it seems like people are wanting it with the pretty consistent emails I get telling me I had a new sub. But really, I dont see much of a point. I enjoy my life away from people knowing me for my hobby. But at the same time, I have met many people who know of me quite recently! Three just this weekend asked if I was still doing it all.

I am vastly aware that you guys couldnt possibly give any less of a shit, but here I am anyway. Should I even bother?

Oh and lets not forget, this place would be nothing without me!

Gaming / Spoiler So why did people hate the ending to MGSV?
« on: September 19, 2015, 10:59:50 AM »
Obviously SPOILERS!!!! If you cant tell by the title saying "ENDING" then you're just dumb...

I hear that people are hating the ending to this magnificent game. Whereas they find out that they were never playing as Big Boss, instead it was the Medic who pulled the bomb out of Paz in Ground Zeroes. You assumed Big Bosses identity and Big Boss assumed yours in order to protect himself and go off to create Outer Heaven. Many people wanted to witness the huge downfall of this man! It was something they waited on for decades.

Instead they got something that makes a bit more sence in retrospect. Now I could type it out and explain for ages, but I will just let this do the talking:
YouTube


That explination makes alot of sence to me... Which is why I think the ending is great! Even genious!

The bill that will make Open Carry legal in Texas has passed the House and Senate and will soon be signed into law. You will still have to have your CHL in order to participate in this.

What are your thoughts on this?

While I thinks its great, I wont be practicing Open Carry. I dont want anybody to know im packing. I can also see many misunderstandings coming with people suddenly carrying in plain site.
