Did this just now. I have it pre-ordered on Steam so I don't have to do the uplay crap that Smokey mentioned, guess I'll play the beta on PS4 with you guys when you're around and on PC to see how it runs, etc.

Does steam charge your card for pre-ordering or can you do the same cancel thing there?

Crow ignores me, AT and Brent.

I guess I didn't want to believe it was over. They kept telling me it was over but....I refused to see the truth,

I think the choice is easy. Me, Nightz and Shake on PS4 or Smokey and Somnia on PC.

Lies, I played with Brent a couple days ago. Despite my loss yesterday I'm still undefeated in ranked MM with him.

Man, you do you. Also I don't think there's any friendly fire so you don't have anything to worry about.

you can take that shit to the bank!

edit-

I think that is in the 'dead zone' AT. That's where all the most valuable loot is, but there are no rules.

There is no friendly fire as long as you are in a party in the dark zone, but you can leave said party and immediatly mow down your friends and take their loot.

In the end we better all watch out for Nightz while were in the Dark Zone this weekend, that guy is sneaky.

On the road!

I was hoping for more smokey salt. He went for 2 to take the lead late, and then gave up a FG as time ex.. no wait I took the timeout too early so he had a shot at a return score but he didn't make it.

There's a double standard on what is considered acceptable or cheesy based on who is calling the plays. It's why in streams, I'll call anything successful (scrambling, hit-stick, etc) cheese because the common complaints are anything "insert current opponent" or certain people do that works is called exploitative by people.

I blame people calling Soka's pistol running cheesy last year for his pick 6-laden blowout loss to FMT in the Super Bowl.

So you're taking tlbb's "I'm new to the league and successful so everyone calls me a cheeser"stance eh?

I see why The Witness is 40 hours. Sometimes you have to reenter puzzles you've already solved, which happens to include slowly walking back to it.

Real dumb.

PSA for those of you playing The Witness (I had to do a little backtracking when I figured this out)
there are collectibles

No idea if that was "known" or not, but I basically had to retrace 2 hours worth of gameplay once I realized.

75 puzzles in now. Still a neat little game.

I get why he did it, there are some puzzles you could just guess your way through and this disincentivizes that, but it's still annoying as fuck. Especially since the FOV is making me a bit queezy.

I'm still going to play but FOVs fuck with me all the time. Struggle with R6, fight through it.

What's the opinion on this year's Madden? thinking about picking it up, but I haven't really played much of the franchise before. Is it a pain to get into as a beginner?

There is a platform where FOV options are a thing. In fact the first thing I did was change the FOV in R6 to 75.

Would you like me to tell you more about this wonderful platform LJ?

I have a PC, rarely game on it. I rarely game. PC is great as a legacy platform, for me anyway.

It's as janky as ever, but they included a number of tutorials and training modes for beginners to explain both the mechanics and nuances of football as well as the mechanics and nuances of Madden, so in that regard it is probably quite good.

Fooling around with Madden CFM data points. That query just returned the Browns stat page. Now I need to parse it and throw it into a database along with 1000x bits of info.
Couldn't think of a real project to work on, so I'll play around with this bullshit for the time being.

I gotta run to UPS, but will you be able to play in an hour or less Greg?

Last night I played Dota, OOTP, FHM and R6!

I think you would really enjoy Franchise Hockey Manager, smokey

2 of those are sports spreadsheet games. You're basically doing YNAB Sports Edition.

Dota doesn't count

You're playing the blurry version of R6.

My original assessment is correct
