So you're just parking your cars together and trying to look cool, instead of crashing stuff and killing people? I think you're playing this game wrong.

Stop having fun the WRONG way!

You've obviously never seen my friends.

Quote from dawesdust_12 :

I still find the strip club to be incredibly awkward in GTA. It's not "sexy" or "erotic" in any way.

See also: Sex scenes in Mass Effect. That was just... really uncomfortable. If I had any kind of emotional reaction, it was the kind of awkward feeling I'd get if I accidentally walked in on my friends doing it.

Vote for me in the forum haiku competition and I will be spending my 5500 gold winnings on a shiny new TOG. Go on, you know you want to

TOG! TOG! TOG! TOG! TOG!

Yes, WarThunder used to be called World Of Planes, but they were forced to change due to the similarity to World Of Warplanes.

Oh, you jus' went there.

First WarThunder tank gameplay.

The new Turisas album. It's a bit shit, I am disappoint.

I think the KV-1S may have been mine. I came round the bottom end of the church, got hit once and got tracked, stopping me dead in front of about 3 tanks. As I fixed the tracks I saw you come round the corner, fired, dinged, and the next shot got my engine and set me on fire.



The T32 is a horrible grind. The top turret is bouncy goodness like the T29'sbut it's 21k xp to unlock, with the stock turret being made of wet paper. What's more, although you have the 105 from the T29 unlocked from the start you can't mount it until you've made 14k for the tracks, and have to make do with the 90mm.

This thread is still alive!


Notable things since I last posted: I bumped into TangoDelta from these here forums the other day (who proceeded to kick my arse in his Type 58) and we said hello.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE the vk3002M. This is the tank I think that will finally teach me how to play mediums.


If anyone wants some platoonery, drop into the 'forumites' channel, password is 'play4fun', where I'm usually found most nights. Technically it's meant as a place where WOT forum members can meet up for toons, but as long as you're not a dick there you'll be welcome.

In that picture, Gandalf is 'Gandalf The Grey', not 'Gandalf The White', so he's not top level yet, unlike Saruman.

The pad looks interesting. They've done away with analogue sticks completely and given it dual trackpads instead.

"The trackpads allow far higher fidelity input than has previously been possible with traditional handheld controllers. Steam gamers, who are used to the input associated with PCs, will appreciate that the Steam Controller's resolution approaches that of a desktop mouse,"

And brake calipers made from pliers too

Got married, had a son (now 4), bought a house.

Quote from Becky Rose :

I guess I would have to say that I finally accepted I'm an adult and started acting like it.

Yeah, I think I'm still going to give this bit a miss.

Is Rockingham there?

Nope.

The Ordnance Survey have used their own mapping to create the whole of the UK in minecraft. I've been having a play this evening, the scale is mindboggling - it took me the best part of 20 minutes flying in Creative mode, just to follow the Motorway from Southampton (where you spawn, at the OS head-office) up to Manchester. The scale seems to be about 50m per block.

Quote from mamoru :

I find the choosing of words very weird. worst at: beastiality, suicide (so best chance of living or more hospital visits?), ugliest residents (so, the most beautiful people live here?), porn usage (people are worst at porn usage?)

haha, 'Worst at bestiality'...

"Oh yeah, this is going to be so good..... WHAT? Oh goddamn! This one is a human too!"

Yeah, same here - I've flown light aircraft a good few times and once I'm above 1000ft or so I completely lose the fear, I assume because you're so high your brain stops registering that you're high enough up for it to be dangerous.

The feeling I get is that I'm maybe 10 feet above a tiny model of the world.

When I used to fly with air-cadets we've been flying upside-down with the canopy slid right back, just hanging in the straps with nothing but 7000ft of air above (below) me and not got anywhere near the sick feeling I get from just looking out of a 4th floor window. Although the 5-point harness probably helps too..

Just got home and watched it again. I got through about 6 seconds before going AAAARGHHH and turning it off.

So it does everything a living-room PC that's running the Steam application can already do, but stops you being able to use that PC as, well... a PC?

Don't click this link...

Can't see it at work, but is it that guy with the helmetcam climbing the 1500ft radio mast?

Quote from CrAZySkyPimp :

I can't even look at that. I have to look away.

I am so goddamn scared of heights. Even seeing those photos four inches across on a screen makes my stomach lurch.

Quote from BlueFlame :

Yea... you do realize that's actually not realistic at all... right?

But apart from that one slip up (which should never have made it past beta-testing really), they've got the game absolutely authentic to reality.

Yes.


They did a few days' filming at Cadwell, and all the staff got to be extras in silly flat caps.
