1.5 worlds and not levels? Even with levels that would mean you have Mecha No Mistake and that other one right before it that I can not recall to go AND the final level. Damn. That is a lot to do in one night. I have no doubt you will get it, but I know I could not do all that in one evening.

Yup, worlds. I'm not worried, though. :joystick:

 
I don't care too much for wolfpack. I only played it in 4 just because it was faster to level up that way. It was okay with other people, but super fucking boring by yourself. In 3 I played wolfpack for the trophies then went back to competitive MP for the rest since the grind wasn't very long. I always liked the MP for the AC games. I wonder if they'll bring it back after Unity,

I say this every time, but if your stomach can't handle Taco Bell, it probably can't handle any greasy fast food restaurant. So I don't understand why Taco Bell is the one that everyone hates on so much.

Also, if your stomach can't handle Taco Bell and you really get sick every time you eat it, you're a fucking pussy.

Or maybe some of us can't handle ingesting kangaroo? I can never tell if people here who rave over Taco Bell are serious, or if this is like some weird Poe's Law type shit.

I had been on the fence about getting Liberation HD this week.  I think with the $10 code I'm getting from Tyler for Borderlands 2, I will just use that to get the game and have the world's most bizarre AC Liberation Vita bundle with the game that isn't even playable on the Vita.

People that like junk/fast food, will love that shit. Don't bristle at it, its just the way it is. Or we could dance circles about how we eat better, feel better, perform better and are heatlhier, while they just don't care.

It is way easier to eat processed crap than finding a decent place to eat something which doesn't harm your body and/or rape you by how expensive the meal is. Eat crap/spend less= almost everybody.

 
Taco Bell is one of the better fast food restaurants out there. As far as fast food goes it's pretty tasty.

When I say achy, I mean like fever achy. Ugh. Don't know if I have a temp or what, though. I should probably go home early. That would at least be a silver lining.

No, I did not eat at Taco Bell today.

It requires you buying Taco Bell. If you don't want to eat it, give it to a homeless guy.

Haha thanks but I have a ps4 so I'm good. And I won't buy a homeless person food unless they specifically ask. The few times I've done it all they really wanted was cash. Always awkward for me.

In my defense, I did say "almost", and it's not like I'd boycott the game if it had multiplayer. In this day and age, when tacked-on or shoddy multiplayer seems to happen more often than not, I respect developers with the guts to focus solely on crafting a strong single-player experience.

...Or if they do include crappy multiplayer, to not bind trophies to it (e.g., Spec Ops: The Line).

or if you do bind trophies to it, do it like how they do them for DLC, with a "+" next to it so that they aren't a part of the plat, they are just bonus trophies. Unless it is a multiplayer focused game with little or no SP content, all multiplayer trophies should not be a part of the plat IMO.

I can see where you are coming from (even though, as always, I think a game's trophy list has way too much of an impact on how much you guys like said game). It's just weird that, in this instance, you are happy that a developer is removing what has become a standard feature in the game because you don't want to have to force yourself to play it.

And why is snakey always jacking it to this Alien game? I want a good Alien game as much as the next guy but all of the gameplay I've seen from this one looks super boring (walk around empty-ish space station and occasionally run from a xenomorph). Maybe I'll be proved wrong.

 
I agree with you mpaulin.  Alien Isolation looks boring.  The graphics dont look great.  And I dont think the dev has a good track record, though I am not sure about that one as I havent really researched it.  I predict it will be bad. 

EDIT:  I just looked at the screen shots and the graphics dont look bad now.  Not sure what I remember seeing but whatevs.

Don't forget that the patch that guarantees you'll get at least purple items from purple engrams goes live this week. If you have any purples now, they'll change to blues. What I've been doing, is hoarding my packages at the post office dude until the patch goes live so that any engrams I get from him will be potentially sweet.

Snakey jacks it to every game before release. And then when it comes out and GAF or reddit say the game sucks, he changes his mind, too. Because he can't form his own opinions.

Too often (at least in the past 5 years or so), the publisher is afraid if the game is SP only that people will play it, finish it, then flip it back quickly and flood the market with used copies so that people will be more likely to buy it used instead of new (depriving the publisher of revenue). So they take resources away from crafting SP to make an often half-baked multiplayer mode to try and delay people from trading it back in.

Spec Ops the Line is the perfect example, the team finished the game, the publisher wanted a MP mode, so they took the development assets and gave them to another game developer to make a shitty multiplayer mode with no input from the original developer, that's why the multiplayer doesn't have any trophies because it is LITERALLY tacked on. Then because of that shitty, tacked on multiplayer it pulled down some of the review scores.

No, I get it and I agree that it's lame (although I was perfectly happy ignoring the multiplayer in Bioshock 2, Dead Space 2, etc. as the campaign didn't feel like it suffered from lack of resources or anything... Arkham Origins is another story). I was just pointing out in this case that the opposite thing was happening and a generally well received multiplayer that a lot of people like was being removed.

Oh, I'm getting the plat alright. I just have 1.5 worlds then the hidden level left, and I don't move on to the next level without finishing the current one's time trial.

What? Why are you updating us on a video game you're playing? Don't you know that's blatantly against the rules?

If you're not posting to make a stupid joke at my expense or talking about stupid fucking fantasy football, apparently you're not allowed to post here anymore.

 
Yeah, SJD is definitely the worst non-Snakey thread member.  And not in a haha Topside you fuckfuce a fucking hate you kind of a way.

More of a "SJD is definitely the 2nd worst thread member" kind of way.

Uh...because Gator asked me about it? :whistle2:k

 
haven't the last 30+ posts have been almost exclusively about video games or taco bell (because you can win a ps4 there)? I thought we were staying disturbingly on topic today - nearly veered in to hot indian chick territory, but that ship was quickly righted.

I need to either stop playing let's fish or mentally prepare myself for a giant grind. a fish catching grind.

it's not a good game, but I would like to find a super big fish before I quit. 6.5 pounds just isn't that impressive to me.
 
Indian chicks can be super hot.  I think Mindy Kaling is hot but I like other Indian chicks as well.

And Wren, stop posting about hot chicks you work with unless you are going to creepshot them.

Tyler you definitely need to do some power rankings

I would be worried about offending some people. Not the people I don't like, they know who they are for the most part. But like, the middle people. There's a lot of people I like about the same that are hard to rank. Maybe I'll do group rankings or something.

 
Hey, GS guys, if I am renting a season pass, how do I download that content if I have to trigger the downloads in-game?

Do I have to boot up the game on the shared account and download the DLC first, or can I just download the season pass from the store on the shared account and then download the DLC in-game on my main?  Anyone know?  Does it even matter?

Just list all the people you hate then, that shouldn't offend anyone.
 
Jesus Christ. I just watched the AI in TLoU use 10 hunting rifle shots/shotgun blasts to take down an unarmored enemy. I should have just shot the son of a bitch myself and got it over with,but for some reason I'm hoarding all my ammo even though I'm practically maxed out on all my weapons.

 
Vig, can you repost the steps to verify that a code hasn't been used on the PSN store? I sold a couple Destiny DLC codes on eBay and want to send a screenshot to the buyer.

this. this is exactly what sounds completely unfun about the higher difficulties in this game. I guess stealth and scarce resources are not my cup of tea.

Usually, the season pass just lets you download the other pieces of dlc from the store and you download that and it will be on your hdd to play on your main. Not sure what you mean by trigger in game.

1. Log in to the PSN store via web browser.

2. Hover over your username and select "Redeem Codes".

3. Enter in the code.

4. The next page should show the DLC's details. DO NOT HIT "Redeem" at the bottom, but "Cancel" to the right of it.
