The Next Small Thing Since Ouya.... GameStick.
DeathscytheX and one other reacted to Myk JL for a post in a topic
I recently went digging through news & found out about this. I'd like to be excited but it doesn't offer the plausibility to make games as far as I can tell like the Ouya advertised back last year. The first Micro Console & my first time I ever pledged. That pledge being $225 which I may or may not regret come this March if & when Ouya comes out. If anything I'm more worried about an over saturation of Micro Consoles via Kickstarter. I probably won't be funding this one but the Kickstarter page is right here if anyone wants more info. -

Rocky Mountain high: Pot a $200M industry in Colorado
Ladywriter and one other reacted to DeathscytheX for a post in a topic
Big Weed and Big Pot sounded dumb next to Big Oil and Big Tobacco... BIG HEMP FTW! Yes, getting the ball rolling will hurt the Mexican cartels, we could undercut them in price... At the same time we could allow their product in legally... and tax the shit out of it. Kinda like Bombay Sapphire... good Gin, but since New Amsterdam is made in New York, its only $20 for a big bottle and its almost as good as the $60 of bombay... Tito's vodka is another great example... US made, awesome quality, way cheaper than imported vodka. -

That gun debate thing
Strider Hiryu and one other reacted to DeathscytheX for a post in a topic
A gun ban is just a "big government" agenda. We can talk about assault rifles all day but if you go to the FBI's website and look at the numbers, more people are killed by knifes, hammers, and even hands and feet. These individual categories out number ALL rifles put into its own category. Another interesting note is that from 2008-2011 the number of homicides have gone down. The US ranks 28th in the world in gun violence per capita. What Piers Morgan won't tell you is that in the UK violent crime is 5 times higher per capita than in the US. Timothy McVeigh single handedly killed more Americans in one event and didn't use a single firearm. You can still buy fertilizer to this day. People are quick to act on emotion while throwing any kind of logic out of the window... That's why we have the patriot act, that's why the gov can tap your cell with no warrant, and that's why they are trying to restrict guns now. Any freedom we are willing to give up, Uncle Sam will be happy to take it away from you weather it's Democrat or Republican. -

That gun debate thing
Khellendross reacted to Ladywriter for a post in a topic
So like yeah... I've listened to many opinions looked at a lot of stats and yada yada No, the hunters I know do not use M16's to hunt deer, but I know a lot of collectors who have things they never take out of their original packaging. Some ppl collect action figures, some ppl collect guns. Some guns are never even loaded let alone fired. Yes, taking something out of circulation reduces the number of guns lawfully owned and obtained out of there, but the black market won't stop selling whatever is banned. I think Chris Rock was onto something with his bullets should cost $5000 apiece. It's not just guns killing people, its a fuck load of bullets. A gun with no ammo is a club. People always ignore the second word in gun violence. That's too bad because what we really have is a violence problem. -

DeathscytheX reacted to Sledgstone for a post in a topic
The main reason mental health wasn't as much of an issue back in the day is because pharmaceutical companies didn't have as many drugs as they do now. When I was a kid I had severe anxiety and some social issues. A bit of therapy and I coped with my own problems. If I had these same issues now, I would have been given 3 different medications: anti-anxiety, anti-depressents and anti-social phobia. And then I would be given therapy sessions and then end up on SSI for the rest of my life because of the side effects caused by all these medications and the lack of interest in completing school or getting a job because I would be vegetabled out by the meds. -

Call of Duty: Black Ops 2
DeathscytheX reacted to Sledgstone for a post in a topic
I see, I'll have to try quick scoping from now on. I was hip firing my shotgun most of the time. Maybe quickscoping will give me those one shot kills. btw, try using a laser sight on bf3 with any gun. It drastically improves hip firing. SKS with laser sight and hip firing at medium to long range can be devastating to an opponent. Check out some aggressive recon bf3 videos on youtube. Even bolt action sniper rifles with a laser sight can be brutal in bf3. -

Hell yeah, that all sounds awesome. The damn red hit indicators always annoy me. Half the time when I see one to the side, I rotate to that side just to see the hit marker rotate a bit with me and not give me any real indication where I'm being hit from. -

Sledgstone reacted to DeathscytheX for a post in a topic
COD tends to throw realism out the window. If you pay a little closer attention to the kill cams, you will notice that there are a lot of times people start firing before they transition into ADS. Hip fire is impossible at mid range on BF3, but its not an issue on COD. Try the quick draw grip on your assault rifles, the shotgun might help too. I don't use quickdraw for the R870, because its ADS is pretty quick. You're bullets will fly where your crosshair is at until you go into ADS.. Plus the laser sights also aid hip fire. In MW1, I use to run the MP5 with the steady aim perk that increased the accuracy even more from hip. I was inspired to do so after watching this guy wreck my face and whole team by running around hip firing the MP5 before people could line up a shot. He always stayed in motion. I adopted the tactic and became very good at it. Due to map design, and the watering down of gun damage, it doesn't work as well, but it still works for me with the shotgun. -

And instead of those annoying red arrows that show up when you are being hit or shot at, maybe it can flash the wall red on that side of the TV you're being damaged from. I never really found the arrows useful because now days the whole screen flashes red, and I panic trying to find what's hitting me, I don't have time to look at the red arrow blended in with the red kool-aid vision I'm beating hit with. This could also be useful to set some neat ambient environmental effects. You could definitely set up some epic scenery with rain, and have the projections portray lightning effects. Perhaps tree off screen can rustle their leaves in the wind. The applications for horror games have a lot of potential... things can be crawling on your walls, they can slightly blur the off screen to keep you paranoid... or just flash things temporarily to catch you off guard. -

YES! I am killed from behind or from the side more than anything in COD or BF3. This would be a welcomed edition. -

Sledgstone reacted to DeathscytheX for a post in a topic
Hmmm, I wonder if they nerfed it on PS3. I will say I've noticed its a tad less more powerful since the last two game playlist updates I was hit with. Do you ADS or hip fire it? I tend to use the "quick scope" method with it, I hit the ADS as I pull the trigger when I see someone. Plus what is your map strategy? I mainly use that class on Drone/Plaza/Turbine/Standoff. I run around the outside of the map, NEVER the middle of the map. I just make a big circle hitting camping hot spots. I wish I could upload a whole match so you could see how I run the class. Standoff is the best example. I always run into the wooden house for snipers upstairs, then I jump out, move to the concrete building for the campers upstairs, then I run along the outside to the other spawn, generally there is someone in that grassy pathway, and people camping next to tanks or on the roof of the buildings adjacent to it. I just run that ciricle. If I hit to much traffic and get killed, I reverse route and run the opposite way eventually coming up behind them. And I still cant see your page. lol It just brings up zombies and says Zombies Ate Your Page.
