Nullsmack posted:You could always get an old pocketpc/windows mobile PDA and put various bits on it as mp3s then hook it to line-in. You'd lose your mic unless you got creative with the wiring. Like using a Y-adapter. I wish someone would make something like a soundboard application for those old PDAs sometime. Doing this is great, because you can't just spam source games like you can with HLDJ, you can spam ANYTHING. Skype, Killing Floor, Ventrilo, Serious Sam HD. anything that uses the mic. I myself use virtual audio cable, and an EEEPc. Which lets me play stuff from youtube, mp3s, internet radio. Me and a group of buddies were playing Killingfloor while I had the audio book for World War Z streaming, mostly the parts with Mark Hamill. This site http://instantsfun.es/ comes in handy for mic spammage too. It's a sheet with a crap load of flash buttons, each plays a sound or song. they add new ones all the time, the only down side is some are entire songs, and you can't stop one once it starts. edit: oh you can stop them by hitting escape. okay then!

MageMage posted:And this is what? DKP is basically a system of currency for raiding that is managed by an addon/calculator rather than being part of the game.. You earn DKP for doing things like showing up on time, and killing bosses. The idea is that you earn DKP for participating in raids, and then you "spend" that DKP in order to "buy" the loot that drops. More participation = more DKP = more rewards for contributing. The website claims to sell DKP for real money so you can use your real bucks to buy fake swords or whatever.

I've started hosting clonk rage games with a few friends on steam who i introduced to the game, usually we play on pretty hard maps that have a lot of lava/monsters. Since I've been playing the longest i usually set up a few guard towers and get everybody inside where we start to build our city. Lately though due to sheer malice or in retaliation for other players intentionally flooding my mines i've been shutting players outside, and leaving a drain pipe for magma inside the guard towers (they have two doors and be used as liquid containers), so when someone comes to the door and asks to be let in, they get doused in magma (fire is pretty much an instant kill.

Pre-Renaissance, there was no pet limit. Although, there wouldn't be enough time to cast invisibility on 50 bears, the first one would have worn off by the time you invised the 10th bear. fennesz posted:Hey folks, remember this video?

I played a lot of Halo PC before Halo 2 hit, and Halo 2 on Xbox Live for a while. People really hate being clubbed to death with the flag. My teammates were also usually less than impressed when I took the scenic route back, eschewing vehicles and teleporters to bunny-hop across the map while as many vehicles as could be mustered kept pace in bursts while blasting their horns for me to "GET THE FJCK IN FKKIN NOOB". Also fun was the banshees and flamethrower that were added before Halo 2 hit. The banshees were pretty powerful and could easily sway a match when used properly, but I had a lot more fun enforcing air superiority (with the ensuing frothing hatred that inspired endless dogfights with my new rivals) than pursuing any real objectives. "This is restricted airspace! There's a WAR on, soldier, if you hadn't noticed!!" The flamethrower wasn't good for much but psyche-outs given it's range and the presence of a shotgun that did the job more efficiently, so a lot of people would flip poo poo when they got roasted. I liked to bait folks into rounding a corner or following me through a 'porter then doubling back or something, then hosed them down. This worked best when I could get a partner in on the act and hold down a base with narrow corridors by painting the walls charcoal from two sides at once. Lastly, more of a "doing it right=griefing" deal, but with the addition of mouse control pistol sniping became an essential skill to master on Halo PC, and until you figured the deal out any area with no cover was a killing zone. There was a LOT of "omg h4x!!" thrown around. Halo 2 was similar with the plasma sword, dudes would get pissed if you shanked them with that bad boy. I liked to camp out high-traffic points in the shadows and/or pick someone to stalk and backstab over and over. My crowning glory was on the map with the flag spawn at the top of the skyscraper, where one access point goes through a kind of loading dock with crates scattered around. I bashed them into a pile in the corner and settled down to hide in my fort when a party rolled through with my quarry in the rear. As they passed through I shuffled a single step to send a blip on their radar, and luckily, my guy stops and gives the room a once-over while his buddies go on ahead, probably figuring it was someone on the floors above. I wait until he zeroes in on my fort, which was pretty drat conspicuous, to explode out of cover with the momentum of the sword lunge sending crates flying, accompanied by my best (bad) predator howl impression. Hearing the guy howl on the prox mike "AAAAAH AAAAH FU-" before it cut out while spraying wildly was the sweetest music. He quit.

Oh and any map with a car or box that everyone starts in is guaranteed to be hosed with.

The downside of this is since he's playing a game the game sounds will come right through the speakers too. Now, I'm not sure if ALL the stations are the same on there, but the Alabama one supports Winamp, so I assume the others will too. Configure plugins in winamp, find your current output plugin, and in it's configuration you should be able to specify what Winamp outputs to and just select your VAC.

Unfortunately you can't eliminate it entirely, since there are a few goons who will still cry when the shaman knocks them into a pit with an anvil. Which isn't really unfortunate as much as it is hilarious. It makes your turns as the shaman all the more rewarding.

I just got booted from a TF2 server because apparently it was "melee-only" (even though the other team had a sentry  ), and I was "a loving dumass" and a "loving RETARD" for using guns.One of those moments where actually playing a game properly griefs people.
