Demobot

Look, if that Hellion didn't want to suffer a slow, agonizing death from cancer, he shouldn't have been an accessory to minor vandalism. He made his choices.

The only sensible solution is to ban costumes. Replace all player models with cubes of equal size. Costume contests will be replaced with Cube Compliance Inspections. Any player found not being perfectly cubical will have their access to the third dimension permanently revoked.

It's simple: Max hax.

Holy crap. That was definitely the best episode of the season so far, maybe of the whole dang show. This season has been a little uneven up to this point, but this more than made up for any criticisms I've had.

I turned into a monkey during a Yin TF last week. Gave the Freakshow a taste of monkey gas they will not soon forget. Personally I think De-evolution is hilarious, and I wouldn't change it. It happens rarely enough to make you forget that it's a real possibility. 60 seconds isn't that long, though it feels like an eternity if it happens in combat.

I've had this happen. Try jumping when you're in the red box. It's like the actual exit is offset vertically from the visual indicator.

Issue 8 was released toward the end of 2006, and introduced the revamped Faultline zone with its own story. The story introduced is one of my favorites, and I've played through it many times, both on the live servers and on Homecoming. But until just this week I hadn't realized something that in hindsight was blindingly obvious. [Spoilers for an 18 year old story arc ahead!] The event that destroyed Overbrook was caused by the villain PsiCurse altering time with the PsychoChronoMetron to turn Faultline from a hero into a villain. PsiCurse didn't know that Faultline was a mutant and assumed he used earthquake machines. As a result, this creates a feedback loop that results in the death of Faultline and the destruction of Overbrook. I just assumed that PsiCurse died too. But he didn't! You even fight him alongside Arbiter Sands! It's Kurse! His name didn't even change that much! Please, please, please, someone out there tell me I'm not the only one who didn't realize this. Feel free to point and laugh otherwise.

Bio is probably my favorite armor set, but it isn't ideal for fighting a single strong enemy. It does its best work against larger groups of weaker enemies. I wouldn't use Efficient Adaptation during a fight. Scrappers really benefit from Offensive Adaptation because they get a higher damage buff while Hardened Carapace is active than other ATs (31.25% vs 25% for Stalkers, Brutes, and Tankers). This plus the added toxic damage means you should pretty much be using it by default during combat. Fighting an EB like Cortex is probably the worst case scenario for Bio Armor, so yeah, you're not doing anything wrong.

Go to Viridian City and talk to the old man who teaches you how to catch Pokémon. Then use Fly to go to Cinnabar Island. Use Surf and go up and down the west coast of the island (right on the edge) until you encounter MissingNo. Fight it or run away from it (but DO NOT catch it), and then you should have 128 GMs in the sixth item slot in your bag.

I haven't played much of the other Dragon Age games, but I have played the Mass Effect trilogy multiple times. I'll be keeping a close eye on this one, not because I have much interest in playing it, but because there's a new Mass Effect game on the horizon. I'm hoping this game succeeds. After Andromeda and Anthem, BioWare needs a win.

Sucks to be booted from a TF, but their team, their rules.

My main character and namesake, Demobot, (Fire/Energy Blaster) in his first costume circa 2004, and his most recent costume.

The Faultline arcs (Jim Temblor, Penelope Yin, Doc Delilah, and Agent G, level 15-25) are personal favorites.
