  • What's your 2016 GOTY?

    Not all that sure myself, lot of critically acclaimed games came out this year except most of them never kept my attention.


    Only game that kept me coming back was metro redux but that's two years old so I can't really count it.

    I suppose a tie of B1 and Doom will do for me.

    This is one of the new POTG intros for Widow, and it is fucking brilliant.

    Can't copy/paste the gif alone for some reason, so the rest of the tweet is still there.

    New sound update seems to be good mostly, although for me it's been giving me some rather bad headaches, not sure why.

    29 minutes ago, Xanthi said: Hey guys,

    We had another good test, thanks so much for coming out! We checked out Aachen City, Hinterhof, and Erdbeere. Normandy had crashed unfortunately, so we were not able to test it. We will test it at the next test.

    The next test will be our final test, as we will have covered all the maps. If you have a map you want to have tested, this is your last chance to submit. If there are more than two new maps submitted, then we will separate the maps into two tests and go into the following weekend, but we expect this to be the final test with the maps listed below.

    We'll be testing on Sunday the 11th at 2:00 PM EST playing the following: Normandy @Sosa - Marino @Bastion - Dianville @mr_ah_clem - Wolfschanze @Максим Лапшинов - Mairie @wslysnps

    Deadline of map submission/updates for this upcoming test is Saturday the 10th at 2:00 PM EST. Please do NOT CHANGE THE NAME OF ANY OF YOUR MAPS or it will break the playlist and cause problems for testing.

    Please note these playtests are totally optional and not part of our judging process. They are meant to help mapmakers see their levels played and receive feedback.

    Pull Marino out of the test list.

    I've stopped working on Marino because of my personal dislike towards the design. Got something else in development now though, although that won't be making it for the contest.

    Counter-strike these days just feels like a shopping mall and casino that people occasionally kill each-other in. At least for me, I find the mass amounts of monetisation fatiguing and I've not properly picked up the game in months over it.

    Not got around to saying it when the game launched.

    But everyone behind the animation work in this game have been fucking amazing at their jobs. The quality of the movement in this game has blown me away.

    It's not the first time Stein has been behind a recount, she had one done back in 2004's election as well with no change in the end result. This one could well be no different.

    Quote from dux

    2 hours ago, dux said: If Clinton won no one would be pushing so hard for a recount. Stop bitching and suck it up. Democracy happened.

    Fair on the first point sure, but I'm not sure if I would consider democracy to have properly happened if a important number of votes were missed, and just potentially ignored with a 'fuck you got mine' attitude from the winners.

    edit: scratch the first part of that argument as well actually, bit hard for me to agree after remembering that Trump was not going to accept the vote if he lost anyway, at least that's what he has said leading up to the election day.

    Quick update on the Jill Stein situation (for context if you don't know, she is trying to raise funds for recounts in specific battleground states)

    She has raised enough funds for at least one state and it seems the state that will be chosen is Wisconsin. Which had a tight poll result of only a 1% difference. However the state has only 10 electoral votes to it's name, not enough to swing the election in Clinton's favour, but if the recount is in favour of Hillary, expect a upset on both sides.

    I got some games on Halloween sale so probably won't get more games that I can't find the time to play.

    I'm trying to resist buying Hitman, since I haven't yet played Absolution.

    Absolution and the new hitman are separate from eachother. While I love absolution, it is generally regarded as the weakest in the series, so go for the new one first.

    I would have put in metro last light on my list, but they locked the cannon ending behind the moral system, after two playthroughs that failed to get that ending, I can safely say 'fuck that'

    So here's what I have instead.

    Jill Stein has been trending tonight, she's trying to raise 2.5 million us dollars in order to get a vote recount after apparent reports of electronic voting booths being manipulated somehow.

    I need to find more sources on the voter manipulation rumour to see if it has any weight. Will chalk it up to probably fake news for now. Only important thing to note out of it is that the states that Stein wants a recount on were major swing states, couple of which had a democrat leaning history.


    Still, even if in the weirdest change of events where the recount shuts down Trump. The democratic party still needs to never forget why we've been losing public support. Probably the biggest part of that lesson is that while it's great to campaign for equal rights for minorities and LGBT, don't leave everyone else behind in that rush.

    Since we got a time extension, I can do what I've wanted to do for the past week.

    Scrapping the current map and rebuilding from the ground up again, Not satisfied with this map personally and want to be able to publish something at the end I can take pride in, regardless of if I meet the deadline or miss it.

    Since I'm not going to be working on it, if you want to poke about the raw file, go ahead.

    the idea of California wanting to secede from the US is popping up online. Could only think of Fallout.
