I've not really been reading anything since I finished A Dance With Dragons pt.2 back in december. I'm thinking about buying either Metro 2033 and 2034, or buying Mogworld and Jam (Two books by Yahtzee, the guy who does Zero Punctuation)

Gaming / Re: Does ANYONE have any good maps and gamemodes for Halo 5?
« on: February 09, 2016, 04:35:54 AM »
I really miss forge a lot, spending hours making maps was always a great time for me. Sometimes I wish I had Halo 5 just for the Forge.

It's not worth it.

the story is about the new Avengers team causing an international incident, in response to which SHIELD creates a regulatory agency to direct when and how the Avengers are used.

Isn't SHIELD disbanded (officially, at least)? From what I've seen, it looks like the actual government is trying to make the Avengers more of a military branch, so that they alone can choose when they get deployed and where to

It's pretty much recovered now (Somehow). In Agents of SHIELD, Coulson's faction and another faction on an aircraft carrier ended up joining forces after discovering the Inhumans. And Hydra just sort of... died out, from the Avengers hunting down the leadership and Nick Fury has helicarriers and infinite resources stashed away (Like the one in AoU) Overall, the conflict pretty much ended with a whimper than a bang because of the need for eternal status quo.

Overall, the following media made all of the events of winter soldier pretty much null.

Iron Man is better.

Everyone on Iron Man's team is better.

Nope. If something is something I feel is a waste of my time, I won't do it.

What if you don't know that it will waste you time?

I don't do much. Go to college, play vidya and write basically sums up what I do, so there's not much to really know.

The closest really is buying a new game, but I'm generally pretty spot on with the games I buy and it's rare I buy a game I thoroughly dislike - Halo 5 being the only one in recent memory i can think of. Though it might be down to the fact I tend to operate on a limited budget and rarely get more than two games a year, so I like to know what I'm getting is probably something I'll like.

In terms of interacting with people irl, I tend to pick my words/ think about whther the person I'm talking to will actually care about what I'm saying.

The Flood / Re: What do you think happens in black holes
« on: February 09, 2016, 02:19:11 AM »
A whole lot of nothing happening. Like, absolute boring. If boring was a physical object, it'd be the center of a black hole.

Since gravity warps space time, and a black hole is so fucked, in theory, time ends inside of a black hole.

But I'll get inventive charlie.

Cats. Fucking cats. Everywhere.
Kind of correct.

Since hitting the speed of light means that time has slowed so much that time outside your frame of reference would not progress at all, you'd spend all of eternity inside a black hole before even a planch unit of time had passed as the gravitional pull would accelerate you to 3x10^8 ms^-1. Of course, it's irrelevant anyway as YOU'D DIE BEFORE YOU COULD REGISTER THE CHANGE.

basically just give me Modern Warfare 2's campaign with giant robots in space

Or better yet make it the sequel where Dunn, Foley, and Ramirez finally get to burn down Moscow....but in space.
Well it is the old IW and we never see or hear what happens to those characters after MW2. They should bring them back. I would buy the shit out of Titanfall 2 if they bring that squad back.

You do know TF is set in the 2300's, right?

You guys keep missing the point.

Say we had a Maguffin device that allows you to survive and send data out.

What do you suppose would happen?

This is where the science types act religious. Scientists have told you it's impossible. I'm saying that if it weren't...

Use your imagination

You can't ask a scientific question then expect people not to behave within science to answer it.

If you went anywhere near an event horizon, you'd die. Anytging different and you've changed the laws of physics or the black hole so significantly that the scenario is irrelevant.

I don't know much about black holes but I remember wondering in 7th grade that if you placed a piece of paper perfectly flat against the pull of a black hole what would happen.

What do you mean flat against the pull of a black hole?

You'd die pretty quickly; spaghettification, the immense heat, radiation, vaccuum exposure, take your pick.

Original article

Tl;Dr -

-It will be multi-plat (Playstation included this time)
-Single Player Campaign is in the works
-There is the possibility of a TV series
-They're about a year in development and expect the game to ship april next year-ish

Gotta admit, the inclusion of single player excites me. Titanfall's world is one that interests me, moreso now Halo has turned into space fantasy, whereas Titanfall feels a lot more grounded and gritty. I'm looking forward to seeing what happens in the sequel.
Yeah, love me that grounded feel when the alien civilization has the exact same architecture as the Mayans and the story is Call of Duty in space.

If that's the price for not having to deal with space magic, power ranger armour designs, a universe where the tone has shifted so dramatically that there is no self-consistency with the older content anymore, and the usage of ancient alien technology as a convenient get-around for any problem that gets in the way, I'll fucking take it. At least it's not the generic space elves that they turned the forerunners into - if I wanted star wars in something, I'd go fucking watch star wars. I always liked Halo because it used to be a relatively grounded and gritty military sci fi universe but that's not the case anymore.

I used to. I just made it a nation where military took all priorities.

Yeah, I nuked that country when the opportunity came.


Anyway, I lost interest a while back so my nation fell into anarchy.

Aside from the smoke effects on the map, that valhalla remake is pretty nice. I'd prefer blood gulch though. Or anything else, really, that has enough space to actually drive a vehicle. It seems like 343 have a really adverse fear of big open spaces as I can't think of a single map by them where you could drive a 'hog at full speed without crashing into something.
A wide open map like Blood Gulch wouldn't be fun to play on because of the DMR's ridiculous range and damage it does to vehicles.

It'd be worth it to use a tank and be able to see where your attackers are coming from.

At least it's not britain where people (Who never watch any other games, mind) inexplicably stay up to watch some random game. A game which is on through midnight for us on a sunday night.
Well I can understand why. I don't bother with the NBA at all until like the final 6 teams are left.

I can't. It's like me watching some shitty LoL game for no reason other than it's special, despite never having shown interest in the game or the tournaments before and never doibg so again. All this and going out of my way to watch it in the early morning when sleep is preferable to being tired? Nah. I don't get it.
It's simply for the fact that it's the "big game". The championship. The game of all games. It has way more meaning to it than some normal regular season typical game.

That's all.

I still don't see the appeal.
