    Diablo III: Reaper of Souls Revealed

    That became clear to me when they first revealed the Demon Hunter. This Crusader bit is pretty similar -- sounds a lot like bad fan-fic writing, not something I'd expect from a renowned development company.

    Hark mine woes and weep!

    Judging from the fact that none of the issues on that graph show up on the first hop (except the one you note that you caused yourself) but look exactly the same from the second hop and on suggests to me that any issues are most likely on your ISP's network. However, it's not terribly...

    Hark mine woes and weep!

    On your picture I can see that your first hop is to IP 192.168.0.1. That is almost certainly your modem/router/gateway's address. You said you opened up a graph for each individual hop? So if and when the problem crops up again, you should be able to see if the problem is on that first hop or...

    Hark mine woes and weep!

    Can you use pingplotter to measure the ping and packet loss ONLY between your computer and the router? If so, that would tell you whether the problem is with the connection from the ISP to the modem, or with the connection from the modem to your computer. Usually, on-board NICs are just fine...

    Diablo III: Reaper of Souls Revealed

    Back in the Diablo 2 days, this would've been exciting news. Diablo 3... not so much. I got to Act 2 before realizing how damn boring the game was and wishing I could get my money back. Goddamn Jay Wilson. Damn him to hell.

    Wasteland 2 new screenshots out of Gamescom

    Are those screen Rick Lion posted from the Van Buren demo? I don't remember it looking that good. Those screens from Commandos 2 and Silent Storm do not look better than W2, though. And in any case, who cares if the graphics are a little rough. I don't remember any promises of...

    J.E. Sawyer on Real World Knowledge and Game Design

    Uh, what about them? I very much hope you're not referring to the utterly fail line of reasoning that the existence of the giant eagles made Frodo's journey into Mordor pointless.

    Wasteland 2 is built around reactivity

    I haven't either. *ducks*

    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    That's a nice looking bullpup. Never heard of IWI before. $1800 is a little steep, but I could justify saving up for it if it shoots as nice as it looks. I doubt I'd be able to find one around these parts to check it out in person, unfortunately. As for the KSG, the fact that it's going for...

    How good is this gaming PC?

    There's no reason you can't use an Intel CPU with an AMD GPU (or an AMD CPU with an Nvidia GPU, but again, for a gaming rig with a dedicated GPU there's not much reason to use an AMD CPU at this point).

    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    So two more trips to the range and no malfunctions at all... until I started feeding Fiocchi ammo through it. Bought two boxes of it for pretty cheap, but while shooting it I had a stovepipe or a failure to feed at least once every mag (10 rounds). Immediately afterward I shot a box of PMC...

    How good is this gaming PC?

    Unless you know you run programs that really need more than 4 cores, there's no good reason to choose anything than a Core i5 for your CPU, IMO (assuming you're looking for performance and are running a discrete GPU). A K-series is the best so you can overclock, unless you want to save a few...

    Wasteland 2 Gamestar Preview

    It doesn't say that kinetic weapons become increasingly marginal against tougher types of metal armor. That would make sense. It says energy weapons do more damage against armor with higher metal content, which doesn't make sense. Why would a person wearing metal armor get hurt more from a...

    Wasteland 2 Gamestar Preview

    I find this one a little weird. Besides not making sense, it seems to just encourage a usage scenario of: use regular guns on lightly armored guys, use energy weapons on heavily armored guys.

    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    I would say I'm shooting one round every 1 or 2 seconds. So not rapid fire, but not really super deliberate either. One other thing is that I'm shooting with one eye closed. I've heard varying opinions on this but is it better to shoot with both eyes open? I attempted this at one point but I...

    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    Alright, so I finally got to stop by the range and put some rounds through my FNP-9. 100 rounds and no failures of any kind, which is great. Well, the slide did fail to lock back after the last round a few times. I didn't keep careful enough track to be 100% sure, but it did seem like it...

    Chris Avellone's Fallout 4 Wishlist

    This is a joke, right? Or did I accidentally stumble into some alternate reality where Fallout 3 never existed? Yeah, but... isn't that true of most organizations built by and around a charismatic figurehead?

    Wasteland 2 physically distributed by Deep Silver, screens

    FFS Rick Lion, please please please just stop. We get it (well, as much as we can through your broken English). You have some inexplicable vendetta against inXile. As Tazagiel requested, please stop letting it spill all over these forums. The inevitable delay is unsurprising and actually...

    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    I don't think the material should be any different. From what I've been able to find out they redesigned the hammer pack but I didn't see anything about them changing the material. The color is probably just from the lighting and/or the dirtiness (that picture was taken before I cleaned it).

    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    Yeah, I know that it'd be a lot of manpower to clean all the guns going in and out (not to mention all the rentals), and I don't really expect the gun shop to be cleaning all the guns they take in. I was more talking about the person trading the gun in in the first place. Not a big deal, but...
