Sack of gems are starting to look like the actual diamond industry with people creating artificial scarcity. At least I assume it's a group of people and not some malevolent AI.

Gifts to welcome our new malevolent AI overlords, presumably. They're also colourful and shiny.

Huh, Gearbox just upgraded their Community Day 2013 fan pass codes to the full Homeworld pack. They sold them as being just Homeworld 1/Classic. That's nice of them.

Ragequit posted:Haha you are stocking gems? Shine on you crazy diamond. Not stocking them, I just buy sacks when I need to get some cash to buy a game. It goes "spend $6 on 12 sacks of gems -> Unpack to 12,000 gems -> turn gems into booster packs of rare cards -> (optional, depending on the +/- EV of the booster) unpack pack -> sell cards for more than 60c, thus gaining money" It's painless, takes a few minutes, and every so often I hit a foil and pay for a six-pack of beer.

Question: How good/responsive is the PS3's controller's (I guess DualShock 3?) D-pad? I have some fighting-esque games (Mainly Injustice, Phantom Breaker, etc), and I can't play them well with my current X360/PC controller. However, it looks like getting a DS3 to work on the PC is a pain in the rear end. Is it worth it?

If you're going to use it mainly for fighting games, get a 360 FightPad from Mad Catz.

Yeah but I already have a DS3 laying around, which is why I ask. It's either that or buy an Xbone controller, as my X360 controller is only slightly starting to show wear and tear in functionality. But as you can guess, I'm not a big spender.

It's somewhat similar to actively participating in an mmo economy, I suppose. And whenever you're bored, you can just turn your score into games. Or badges. I like badges. What's become of me?

I mean not to start a fight but maybe the dude finds it fun to spent 45 seconds in a day screwing with cards? You find it fun to make posts in the thread, and that's pointless too, except you find it fun? I like posting and sometimes I like to sell cards and gently caress with gems. Life is good.

If you're willing to play a bit every day as opposed to marathon through a game, you don't really need to pay any money.

I know how much he loves the gem market, we all do. I was just saying, in my opinion, it's not worth the time to make a few cents a pop through the terrible marketplace interface. If you like it then go hog wild, it's all good. Plus you have to own all those anime games to craft the boosters which is a slippery slope itself.

Why does every game on Steam now at launch tell me to "turn on" with page up and f11? I can't find anything about it online; everything I find is just as confused and it doesn't seem to do anything.

Having recently played it, I remember all this because it bugged me too: Briggs' one non-lethal way to take down enemies is his melee attack and you have to kill or knock out all the guys to move on in the first segment; there are two guys that face each other forever after their short conversation so you basically cannot perfect stealth it. The first person parts are hella stupid and I really don't know why they thought it would add anything.

The first person parts are hella stupid and I really don't know why they thought it would add anything. I liked the idea ( Briggs is an FPS protag learning how to be a stealthy dude like Sam, which is why his later segment is in third person. ), but yeah, the execution is lacking. Especially since Sam is a sociopath now, and Briggs just gets demeaned constantly for doing the legitimately right things.

However, it looks like getting a DS3 to work on the PC is a pain in the rear end. Is it worth it? I love the Sony controllers for fighting games. Having the "d-pad" as separate buttons makes it a lot harder to accidentally enter garbage inputs when dealing with diagonals. It's never going to be as good as a proper arcade stick, but in terms of d-pads I don't think anything else compares. It used to be a PITA to get a dualshock3 working via MotionInJoy or whatever but that was ameliorated by the Scarlet Crush wrapper which sits in the background and makes games think your DS3 is a 360 controller with no extra configuration. Even works with bluetooth if you get a supported dongle (which costs like ~$10 shipped.) Scarlet Crush is from a thread on the pcsx2 forums - http://forums.pcsx2.net/Thread-XInput-Wrapper-for-DS3-and-Play-com-USB-Dual-DS2-Controller or just google scarlet crush ps3 etc

Watching Kragger play Dying Light through Steam Stream, and it looks great. From personal experience, a wrench can bash in way more than 10 heads before breaking though. My immersion!
