21-12-2018 03:50:02 < syv!syvarris@lycwzs-137-693-101-628.mycingular.net: IIRC at the beginning you pretty much have to go to the arena on weekends, for amateur night, and they'll provide you with a vehicle for the duration.  The other race tiers have significantly more dangerous opponents, and you have to bring your own (expensive) car, which will then be damaged and need to be repaired even if you survive.
21-12-2018 03:50:48 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: the mental image that I get from "autoduel" is probably much cooler than it actually is.
21-12-2018 03:51:22 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: That is, a two player competitive game where you wield giant weapons that are also cars.
21-12-2018 03:51:41 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: That's easy enough.
21-12-2018 03:51:53 < syv!syvarris@lycwzs-137-693-101-628.mycingular.net: The char has three stats, but in standard RPG fashion they level up with use.  At the beginning it's best to put a bunch into marksmanship, because it will make most of your shots one-hit-kills.  Driving can be practiced by losing control, and grows naturally over time, while mechanics can be trained by exiting vehicles and walking into destroyed enemy cars, salvaging them.  It's hugely important later, but isn't necessary t
21-12-2018 03:52:06 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: I could also use a map.

21-12-2018 03:54:54 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: I'll take your word for it.
21-12-2018 03:55:00 < syv!syvarris@lycwzs-137-693-101-628.mycingular.net: Ah, and there's no saving.  If you die, it's permadeath, unless you bought a clone at the hospital.  Clones only save your stats at the time they're created, and you only keep cars that are in the garage.
21-12-2018 03:55:47 < syv!syvarris@lycwzs-137-693-101-628.mycingular.net: Hospital might also sell armor, but it could be another building.  There's certainly armor in the first city, though.

21-12-2018 04:08:00 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: Most VNs could be completed by an autoclicker.  Most have an autoclicker *included*.
21-12-2018 04:08:06 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: And you need to HAVE a brain to get said hints.
21-12-2018 04:08:36 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: You need more of a brain to follow on-screen instructions, so it therefore required a brain, and more of one than a standard VN.
21-12-2018 04:08:54 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: That's not a very big map.
21-12-2018 04:09:35 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: Also you're pretty much trapped in yuri's death scene unless you think to hit fast-forward, and that's not hinted. You need to either have an original thought or click ten thousand times.
21-12-2018 04:10:26 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: ...I liked DDLC.  It was good.
21-12-2018 04:10:38 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Ok.
21-12-2018 04:10:41 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: time for AutoDuel?
21-12-2018 04:10:46 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: Sure.
21-12-2018 04:11:11 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: Correction: you liked the second half of ddlc
21-12-2018 04:11:30 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: It was at least the second two quarters.
21-12-2018 04:11:41 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: ...
21-12-2018 04:11:45 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: I said that.
21-12-2018 04:11:50 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: "Last two thirds"
21-12-2018 04:11:55 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: kek
21-12-2018 04:12:21 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: I should try getting the other two endings for that at some point. I'd need to download it again. >.>
21-12-2018 04:12:36 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: What?  There's other endings?
21-12-2018 04:12:47 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: yeah
21-12-2018 04:13:00 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Ahh, PC Speaker music.
21-12-2018 04:13:07 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: ...I know there was one if you loaded saves to do all three routes before finishing, but there was more than that?
21-12-2018 04:13:13 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Been a long long time there.
21-12-2018 04:13:40 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: one, you delete her before starting the game, the other you use saves to get every single scene with everyone before ending the first playthrough.
21-12-2018 04:14:03 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: How's the early deletion work out?
21-12-2018 04:14:12 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: I dunno.
21-12-2018 04:14:13 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Bad.
21-12-2018 04:14:45 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: I haven't seen it. If I had seen it I wouldn't have any desire to try doing it. :P
21-12-2018 04:14:54 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: You want me to tell you?
21-12-2018 04:14:58 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: nah
21-12-2018 04:15:09 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: okay.
21-12-2018 04:15:10 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: stream's up.
21-12-2018 04:15:11 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: I knew it was bad, though
21-12-2018 04:15:15 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: might need your help with the controls.
21-12-2018 04:15:22 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: I figured that part wouldn't be a spoiler.
21-12-2018 04:15:37 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: I have the stream page up, but I'm unsure whether it's loading badly dus to horrible wifi, or if it's just silent because you're tabbed out.
21-12-2018 04:15:45 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: I don't recall any of the controls. :P
21-12-2018 04:16:26 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: welp.
21-12-2018 04:16:32 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: Pretty sure it was mostly arrow keys, a button to shoot (prolly clicking), and numbers for weapon selection.
21-12-2018 04:16:41 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Nah, something's wrong with the stream, too.
21-12-2018 04:17:24 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: There we go.
21-12-2018 04:17:47 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Name this doomed guy.
21-12-2018 04:17:51 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: felicia
21-12-2018 04:18:30 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: ^
21-12-2018 04:19:12 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: Marksmanship is best, it's by far the most impactful early on.
21-12-2018 04:19:46 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: fuckcar
21-12-2018 04:20:21 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: maybe syv can do better than that
21-12-2018 04:20:24 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: Any car you make at the start is gonna be *horrible*.
21-12-2018 04:20:47 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: Audio is cutting in and out for me.
21-12-2018 04:20:56 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: fine for me
21-12-2018 04:21:07 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: I have a very poor connection.
21-12-2018 04:21:59 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: IIRC the lowest tier for car quality was $5000 and below, though I believe that also included weapons, which can be bought separately.
21-12-2018 04:22:07 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: You're pretty clear and consistent now.
21-12-2018 04:22:42 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: U armor is under, protects against mines.  It's valueless for a long time.
21-12-2018 04:23:58 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: ah, space :P
21-12-2018 04:24:15 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: Stream is borked for me.
21-12-2018 04:24:26 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: ...Intermittently.
21-12-2018 04:24:26 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: fine on my end
21-12-2018 04:24:35 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: Arena is huge, has five enemies, I think.
21-12-2018 04:25:05 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: so apparantly these cars are powered by plants?
21-12-2018 04:25:06 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: There should be a minimap with dots for each of the enemy cars, they're all identical to you at this stage.
21-12-2018 04:25:15 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: It's basically a circle.
21-12-2018 04:25:32 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: I think they're all nuclear, because zeerust.
21-12-2018 04:26:19 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: not fusion, what primative technology
21-12-2018 04:26:22 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: Yeah, you can't salvage cars in amateur night, because they're property of the arena.
21-12-2018 04:27:08 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: They have zero skills, I believe.  You have some marksmanship.  It takes a lot more shots to kill without any marksmanship.
21-12-2018 04:27:42 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: Could be wrong though.  It's been a long time.
21-12-2018 04:28:25 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: Exit is at the bottom, I believe.  Might be a second at the top.
21-12-2018 04:28:47 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: Yeah, just leave.
21-12-2018 04:28:53 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: Upon winning, you get more money, and can custom make a more expensive cae.
21-12-2018 04:29:28 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Need a name for this car.
21-12-2018 04:29:30 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: More expensive car can take courier jobs to go between cities, or can enter into harder arena challenges.
21-12-2018 04:29:35 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: 1500 buckazoids was pretty good.
21-12-2018 04:29:52 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: Deathtrap.
21-12-2018 04:30:57 < syv!syvarris@72.168.zgk.iy: Some things I recall: Building a sideways car is oddly effective.  Armor mostly only the front and side, while mounting a gun on the armored side and front.  That's great for dueling, ss long as you chave space.

21-12-2018 04:36:11 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Even if they say it's safe, you will die.
21-12-2018 04:36:37 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: huh, road warriors much have a lot of ballistic skill

21-12-2018 04:38:15 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Division numbers * 1000 is the most expensive car that's allowed to participate.
21-12-2018 04:38:51 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: So if your car costs 5500, you'll be banned from Division 5, and it'll have to fight against $10,000 cars in Div 10.
21-12-2018 04:39:33 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Yeah, anything below $5000 is fine.
21-12-2018 04:40:24 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: It can work.  It's a little harder, but $1000 isn't hugely impactful.
21-12-2018 04:41:30 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: I guess it is?
21-12-2018 04:42:40 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Oh, you can shoot enemies that are offscreen.
21-12-2018 04:43:01 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: If you line up the minimap juuust right it works pretty reliably.
21-12-2018 04:45:56 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Just go with the lightest options you can get for the desired armor.
21-12-2018 04:46:47 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Pretty much.  You also have to leave weight/cost for guns, though.
21-12-2018 04:46:48 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: if you train by yourself at the arena, does that increase skills as well?
21-12-2018 04:46:52 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: It does.
21-12-2018 04:47:01 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: I think it can only improve driving skill though.

21-12-2018 04:50:11 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: No clue.  I'll look it up.
21-12-2018 04:50:18 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: maybe a flamethrower is lighter?
21-12-2018 04:51:53 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: that's a very heavy video game
21-12-2018 04:51:56 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: 150 weight for MG.
21-12-2018 04:52:12 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: 40 weight for spike droppers~
21-12-2018 04:52:27 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: 100 for heavy rockets.
21-12-2018 04:52:36 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: I honestly don't know.  Don't recall using them.
21-12-2018 04:53:45 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: 215 weight for rec. rifle.
21-12-2018 04:53:51 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: 1050$
21-12-2018 04:54:33 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: It's a bit better, but the MG is typically quite enough.  More armor is probably more valuable
21-12-2018 04:55:13 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: seems like you'll want spare room and weight if you're doing courior jobs
21-12-2018 04:55:41 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: with no spare weight you'll only be good for bloodsport

21-12-2018 04:57:20 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Spikes apparently can kill.
21-12-2018 04:57:35 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: And they do a fair bit of damage.

21-12-2018 05:03:27 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: pew pew!
21-12-2018 05:04:29 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: in this game you can no anywhere, be anyone, do anything. Provided that that involves strapping guns to your car and blowing up other cars.
21-12-2018 05:05:05 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Heheheh.
21-12-2018 05:05:20 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Yeah, loot it.
21-12-2018 05:05:27 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: loot!
21-12-2018 05:05:34 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: You can do it immediately, I think.
21-12-2018 05:05:58 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: You get more skill every time you lose control.
21-12-2018 05:06:39 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: I like how you lose the radar when you get out of the car
21-12-2018 05:06:42 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Mechanic skill determines success, and raises with attempts.
21-12-2018 05:07:22 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: I mean, that's pretty much literally how driving skill works in CDDA
21-12-2018 05:08:22 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: cycle
21-12-2018 05:08:25 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Oh, guide says I'm wrong.  You have to pay for mechanic lessons at the truck stop to improve the skill.
21-12-2018 05:08:28 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Yes.
21-12-2018 05:08:42 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Motorcycles are dangerous and you can't have one.
21-12-2018 05:08:47 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: looks like a motorcycle with sidecar :P
21-12-2018 05:09:40 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: ramming speed!
21-12-2018 05:09:45 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Yeah, just run away.
21-12-2018 05:10:01 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Nope.
21-12-2018 05:10:06 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Nice try!
21-12-2018 05:10:16 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: if you jump out of the car, do they shoot at you? :P
21-12-2018 05:10:34 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Yes, they kill you quickly if you leave.
21-12-2018 05:10:42 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: You don't have to keep playing.
21-12-2018 05:10:50 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: That's pretty much the game right there.
21-12-2018 05:11:23 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: So in.. Autoduel, you duel in autos.
21-12-2018 05:11:44 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Yup.
21-12-2018 05:12:22 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: I still wish I could remember that other one where you're using autoduel but equipping armies.
21-12-2018 05:12:32 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Car Wars.
21-12-2018 05:12:41 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: It was about that same vintage, except instead of cars you had guys on horses and what not.
21-12-2018 05:12:47 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Oh, nevermind.
21-12-2018 05:12:52 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Strat game, not whatever that was.
21-12-2018 05:13:31 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Car wars is about building a fleet of cars with a ton of people manning them, and desperately trying to scavenge enough food to feed all your shmucks while you travel around.
21-12-2018 05:14:06 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Nah, it wasn't cars.
21-12-2018 05:14:50 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Has a neat little leveling system where your population is divided by quality of your people, and they're just represented by total numbers.  Has a kind of tactical game which is included, but it was always too fiddly for me.
21-12-2018 05:16:45 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: This Autoduel guide seems to boil down to "Get to Atlantic City asap, then gamble until you're rich and can buy top-class cars.  Then do whatever."
21-12-2018 05:17:12 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Heh.
21-12-2018 05:19:31 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Huh, Lords of the Realm.  That was an odd game.
21-12-2018 05:21:26 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: There's Nectaris, which is essentially an odd varient in the same family as Advance Wars.
21-12-2018 05:24:48 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: hmm
21-12-2018 05:25:15 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: just downloaded huntshowdown on the laptop. curious how it runs.
21-12-2018 05:27:03 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Want me to join you?
21-12-2018 05:27:53 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: maybe after
21-12-2018 05:28:14 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: need to make sure it actually work acceptably first
21-12-2018 05:28:26 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Kay.
21-12-2018 05:29:37 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: hah
21-12-2018 05:30:34 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: the menu screen is snowy in the background, and the music is the exact same except the vocals is just saying "ho" repeatedly rather than the usual humming.
21-12-2018 05:32:52 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: As in "Hohoho!" or "Hooooo.... Hooooo... Hooooo..."?
21-12-2018 05:33:06 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: hohoho, pretty much
21-12-2018 05:35:19 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Ho.
21-12-2018 05:35:21 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Ho ho ho.
21-12-2018 05:35:25 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Hoooo ho hooo ho hooo.
21-12-2018 05:42:51 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: "crossbow shotbolt"
21-12-2018 05:43:08 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: A crossbow that shoots bolts that are tipped with shotgun shells.
21-12-2018 05:43:20 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: is that awesome or dumb, syv?

21-12-2018 05:46:26 -!- sy is now known as syv
21-12-2018 05:50:06 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Dumb.
21-12-2018 05:50:18 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: you need a barrel or some kind of chamber to allow the shotgun shells to function.
21-12-2018 05:50:51 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: ?
21-12-2018 05:51:41 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: [00:42] <ER> "crossbow shotbolt"
21-12-2018 05:51:42 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: [00:43] <ER> A crossbow that shoots bolts that are tipped with shotgun shells.
21-12-2018 05:51:42 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: [00:43] <ER> is that awesome or dumb, syv?
21-12-2018 05:51:50 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Absolutely dumb.
21-12-2018 05:52:19 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: using a crossbow to fire bombs isn't a bad idea.
21-12-2018 05:52:56 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: It's roundabout as good an idea as duct taping a firecracker to your bolt; neither is going to go off, even if they did it won't do anything very helpful, and the aerodynamics are probably gonna be wrecked.
21-12-2018 05:54:26 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: In fact a firecracker might even be better.  At least that, if it exploded, would make a nice bright flash and crack.  I don't think the shotgun shell would even explode in any real sense; it'd just burn off quickly and quietly.
21-12-2018 05:55:20 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: I should put crossbows in the mall ninja generator.
21-12-2018 05:55:24 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Yeah, plus they use firing pins instead of fuses.
21-12-2018 05:55:25 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Maybe.
21-12-2018 05:55:49 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Need more examples in each category, though.
21-12-2018 05:56:01 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: well Idunno, I guess they just duct tape it together in a way that makes sense
21-12-2018 05:56:08 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: so the same thing doesn't come up so often.
21-12-2018 05:56:47 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: and the hand crossbow is described as "imaginative"
21-12-2018 05:56:58 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: I had originally been trying to only choose well-known guns which had some stupid trait or major flaw, with very few exceptions.  That ended up limiting the options a lot.
21-12-2018 05:57:17 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: I meant more for the weapon mod types.
21-12-2018 05:57:20 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: the gun types seem about right.
21-12-2018 05:58:23 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: so huntshowdown does have a new game mode.
21-12-2018 05:58:41 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Oh.  Yeah.  Problem is that most of the guns, unless you use the lowest setting, end up being very tacticool with *tons* of attachments, so if you make five guns you'll definitely get a few repeats in some slots.
21-12-2018 05:59:05 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: It's solo only, called quickplay, you get given a hunter to use for free but can only keep him if you win.
21-12-2018 05:59:16 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: And on setting 11, which only takes the most extreme options for each slot, you get many many repeats since there's even less of a selection.
21-12-2018 05:59:24 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Neat.
21-12-2018 05:59:39 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Yeah, could use a little more variety there.  And yeah, probably fewer overall weapons.
21-12-2018 05:59:50 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: That's probably for people who've managed to run out of money.
21-12-2018 05:59:54 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: It's kiiiiiiiinda battle royale in that only one person can win, and it's last man standing, but there's also objectives.
21-12-2018 06:00:30 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: 'silenced subsonic rounds' for instance.
21-12-2018 06:00:49 < * syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net tilts head
21-12-2018 06:00:56 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: For instance what?
21-12-2018 06:01:04 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: You need to find rifts and close them, which is just like finding clues in the normal game. The first one to close five starts to absorb energy and when that timer runs down everyone else dies.
21-12-2018 06:01:17 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Heh.
21-12-2018 06:01:28 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: If you kill that person, it sticks to you
21-12-2018 06:01:49 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Does anyone get a wallhack?
21-12-2018 06:02:11 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: You also get bounty at the end proportional to how long you had that on you, even if you die. Which I think means you earn money?
21-12-2018 06:02:22 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: I haven't heard about wallhacks.
21-12-2018 06:02:34 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: Pretty sure it's not part of the mode.
21-12-2018 06:02:45 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: So yeah, it's a way to get money for people who've managed to run out.
21-12-2018 06:02:51 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: pretty much
21-12-2018 06:03:05 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: you also get a free hunter if you manage to survive.
21-12-2018 06:03:08 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Makes sense, considering how much money they give to you from levelups, and how difficult it can be to make it back.
21-12-2018 06:04:02 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: How have the two of you been doing there?
21-12-2018 06:04:14 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: where?
21-12-2018 06:04:29 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: In Hunt?
21-12-2018 06:04:32 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Yes.
21-12-2018 06:04:44 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Firstly, we haven't played in a long time.
21-12-2018 06:04:45 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: haven't played in some time
21-12-2018 06:05:01 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: have we ever won a run? I think so.
21-12-2018 06:05:14 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Back when we were playing... mediocre, I guess?  We won occasionally, but lost more often.  Had a couple good ambushes of enemies, but got ambushed more often.
21-12-2018 06:05:19 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: they're like 45 minute matches, so it's a commitment
21-12-2018 06:05:30 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: We definitely won a few times.
21-12-2018 06:05:36 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: yeah.
21-12-2018 06:05:37 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: they also added a second map
21-12-2018 06:05:59 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Oooh!
21-12-2018 06:06:10 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Allegiance timescale, then.
21-12-2018 06:06:27 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Yes.
21-12-2018 06:06:48 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Similar to most longer term match based team PvP games.
21-12-2018 06:06:57 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: It is quite adjectival.
21-12-2018 06:07:43 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Yes.
21-12-2018 06:08:00 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: longer duration teamwork based PvP single match games.
21-12-2018 06:17:20 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Okay, so Dark Souls is pretty scary in first person when you can only see three feet in front of you.
21-12-2018 06:17:28 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Agg!
21-12-2018 06:17:31 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: and I can't watch it!
21-12-2018 06:17:36 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: I also added the aggro mod which makes everything worse.
21-12-2018 06:17:43 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: I can do it again, don't worry.
21-12-2018 06:17:48 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Heh.
21-12-2018 06:17:57 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: I've already memorized the game, it's not like this is changing my experience.
21-12-2018 06:18:06 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: alright, played my first game of quickplay!
21-12-2018 06:18:36 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: You gain a trait every time you close a rift, but I couldn't find a way to look at what traits I had :V
21-12-2018 06:19:53 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: started with just a machete, went forth and slashed some shit. Closed my first rift and found a shotbolt crossbow. Closed two more rifts and then got shot by a dude with a silenced pistol.
21-12-2018 06:20:36 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: Pretty happy with that. I killed four armoreds and a meathead without taking damage.
21-12-2018 06:21:00 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Want to co-op?
21-12-2018 06:21:01 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: two armored kills using a machete, even
21-12-2018 06:21:23 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: game seems to run pretty well, though some sounds were distorted.
21-12-2018 06:21:30 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: alright, give me a sec
21-12-2018 06:22:55 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: good luck.
21-12-2018 06:23:37 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: it's nice to be able to run around in daylight with a machete, because hey my soul is already damned anyway. ;P
21-12-2018 06:23:56 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: okay, I'm ready
21-12-2018 06:25:37 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: God.
21-12-2018 06:25:51 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: That is the most stressful DaS has EVER been for me.
21-12-2018 06:25:57 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Burg is terrifying.
21-12-2018 06:26:17 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: not every day that you find the BURG terrifying :P
21-12-2018 06:26:30 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Dammit!
21-12-2018 06:26:41 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: There's monsters in every direction, and I can hear them coming for me.
21-12-2018 06:27:22 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Fights are a constant chaotic jumble where I'm rushing in and out so I can see what they're doing but can avoid their attacks.
21-12-2018 06:27:44 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Lockon makes things weird, but without it blocking is hard, and aiming is guesswork.
21-12-2018 06:28:08 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: When I stream it, I'll do a shieldless dual-wield run, at least until it gets grindy.
21-12-2018 06:28:46 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Opening Hunt now, that'll be good for relaxation.
21-12-2018 06:28:56 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: hah
21-12-2018 06:30:11 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Also, it makes Asylum actually almost difficult.  He still dies very quickly, but I can't see what he's doing.
21-12-2018 06:30:17 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: harry coupland is feeling optimistic about his chances of survival
21-12-2018 06:30:27 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: It's just fat belly wobbles, and then GIANT HAMMER
21-12-2018 06:31:10 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Okay, it's up.
21-12-2018 06:31:32 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Ahould I choose a ranked guy, or a new guy>
21-12-2018 06:31:59 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: I only have level 1s, but I've got him kitted out as well as I can
21-12-2018 06:34:21 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: ...How do we join up>
21-12-2018 06:34:32 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Oh.
21-12-2018 06:40:36 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Fire effects are visible from a distance in true darkness.  I really want to fight Gwyn with it on, because I'm pretty sure his flaming sword would be the only visible thing in the arena.
21-12-2018 06:41:26 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: And it would just be so awesome to watxh his leap come in, just this massive flying fire launching into the air and coming down st you.
21-12-2018 07:16:29 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: so yeah, you stood still in place for a while, then fell over dead. When I moused over your corpse it said "you have already collected bounty from this monster"
21-12-2018 07:16:38 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: soooo I just ran for the evac
21-12-2018 07:16:51 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: I d/c'd
21-12-2018 07:16:58 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: yeah, figured
21-12-2018 07:16:59 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: And don't seem to be reconnected yet.
21-12-2018 07:17:17 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: at least it happened at the start, rather than at the end :P
21-12-2018 07:17:39 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Yeah.
21-12-2018 07:18:33 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: well if you reconnect, we'll do one more round
21-12-2018 07:18:44 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: yeaaah.
21-12-2018 07:18:51 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Pretty big if.
21-12-2018 07:18:54 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: should probably go to sleep some time before four hours from now
21-12-2018 07:19:07 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: if not, I'll do another quickplay! :D
21-12-2018 07:19:12 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Go ahead.
21-12-2018 07:19:44 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Steam seems to be having a stroke.
21-12-2018 07:19:59 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: also, my new daily challenge is to kill 35 grunts with melee. That seems fun, huh? :D
21-12-2018 07:20:28 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Yeah, that's a good one.
21-12-2018 07:20:49 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: specially because you can always start quickplay with a melee
21-12-2018 07:21:10 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: gives you a choice between a revolver, shotgun, melee, or random
21-12-2018 07:22:39 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Okay, it seems to be working again.
21-12-2018 07:24:07 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: yeah, think I'll still just do a quickplay
21-12-2018 07:24:19 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Okay.
21-12-2018 07:24:32 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Prolly just do one myself, stab some zombies.
21-12-2018 07:25:19 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: yeh
21-12-2018 07:26:10 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: winning a quickplay seems like it might be even harder than winning a bounty
21-12-2018 07:26:19 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: despite being the more casual mode
21-12-2018 07:26:28 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Or not.
21-12-2018 07:27:01 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Game seemed a bit broken.  Told me I was rank 1 and wouldn't let me go into any other menu.
21-12-2018 07:27:07 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Dark Souls then!
21-12-2018 07:27:09 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: ...I feel like they should have called it something other than just quickplay, given that it's totally different rules
21-12-2018 07:28:29 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: oh! there's duck!
21-12-2018 07:28:33 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: ducks!
21-12-2018 07:28:38 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: quack.
21-12-2018 07:28:39 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: this is the best game now!
21-12-2018 07:29:16 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: You didn't notice that before?
21-12-2018 07:29:41 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: In our girst run, just past the water thing you noticed, there was a flock of ducks.
21-12-2018 07:29:59 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: I wonder why the water devils don't eat the ducks.
21-12-2018 07:40:35 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: They taste bad?
21-12-2018 07:42:50 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: hmm
21-12-2018 07:43:14 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: well, I got to see what happens when someone else gets all the energy and you don't find them! :P
21-12-2018 07:47:48 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: you catch on fire and DIE
21-12-2018 07:51:23 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Burn!
21-12-2018 07:53:25 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: started with an axe. Killed some grunts. Ran to the nearest rift, got shot by a dude with a rifle
21-12-2018 07:54:00 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: huh, I got 25 bounty for "bad luck"
21-12-2018 07:54:15 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: guess you get that if you spawn late?
21-12-2018 07:54:15 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: is getting bounties good or bad?
21-12-2018 07:54:23 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: good
21-12-2018 07:54:29 < Devastator!chatzilla@2001:569:facb:otln:gliw:hzir:gypr:jtml: Mayhaps.
21-12-2018 07:54:43 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: that's just what the game calls getting money
21-12-2018 08:01:26 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: another new thing is that you can pick up weapons from dead hunters.
21-12-2018 08:02:06 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: Apparantly if you steal someone's gun and evac with it's it's marked as "contraband" and you can't sell it. I can see why they did that but it's kinda BS.
21-12-2018 08:06:22 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: got the first rift, went to the second, suddenly realized that what I was slashing at was a hive and got poisoned, ran around the corner and realized that the things I was slashing at was a player, hacked wildly at air, got killed by his cavalry saber
21-12-2018 08:09:05 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: hmm
21-12-2018 08:10:03 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: apparently in bounty mode, I've killed two players and been killed by players eight times. I've killed the boss 4 times and extracted with both bounty tokens two times.
21-12-2018 08:10:59 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: and I've wiped a team 0 times, which I guess means we've never really won a teamfight. :\
21-12-2018 08:12:31 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: We have!
21-12-2018 08:12:43 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: We've done at least one teamwipe, I am certain.
21-12-2018 08:13:38 < syv!syvarris@nxasrx-013-029-587-27.mycingular.net: Maybe you died so it didn't count it for you, but I know that I had a teamwipe marked, and I certainly didn't do that solo.
21-12-2018 08:15:41 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: but yeah, I should stop now >.>
21-12-2018 08:16:27 < ER!ER@63-39-173-041.dhcp.hckr.nc.charter.com: I like the quickplay, it's a lower stakes game to cool down from the tense co-op mode
