title: Can I safely desynth raw materials from previous floors?

text: So far, it looks as if all the recipes you gain on one floor of the tower consist only of materials obtained from that floor. Once I have cleared a floor and crafted all its recipes, can I desynth all the left-over materials or do they come in handy later on?


title: Do different jetpacks have different physics in jetpack joyride?

text: There is a long list of different jetpacks in jetpack joyride. I see some of them are necessary for achievements, and they look cosmetically different, but I'm curious if they have different game physics (faster/slower lift, faster/slower descent). I haven't noticed a difference in the few I've purchased, but I haven't reached the higher end ones yet. As I've played the game a while, I've noticed that some obstacles are nearly impossible to avoid, and I'm wondering if that is made worse by the jetpack I'm using, or is just the nature of the game.


title: Is there an experience table for Evoland?

text: Is there a listing of the experience points required to get to each level? And perhaps what each level gives(defense, attack, magic, etc.) per character?


title: Do skill increases and perks increase the dual wielding attack speed?

text: From my recent experiences with a new dual-dagger wielding character, I noticed that repeatedly slashing with a single dagger seems to be equally fast as slashing alternately with two daggers being dual-wielded, and the simultaneous attack with both daggers (M1 + M2 tapped at the same time, not a power attack) was only slightly faster (counted as two strikes, one with each blade). Does dual wielding become noticeably faster late-game from skill increases and perks, so that a player desiring a very high attack rate would choose it over a single dagger?


title: Do Item Development unlocks persist in New Game +?

text: One annoyance with Hyperdimension Mk2 was that when you started a new game plus you lost a _lot_ of random progress, including unlocked item development items. You'd keep the recipe, but the items wouldn't be available in stores. Has this changed? Do I only have to unlock item dev items once in Victory or will I have to craft them once per cycle to buy them at a store?


title: Is lossy compression used on PlayStation Store games?

text: I downloaded the Bioshock Infinite 60-minute trial from the PlayStation Store. It contains the full game but the download was about 6 GB. I might buy the full game off PSN but I'm not going to pay full price (which is really just an unlock license for the trial) for a game with compressed video and textures. Can anybody with a downloaded copy and disc copy tell me if PSN titles are compressed? Spec Ops: The Line, which I downloaded, looks down right awful at times. Note: I'm aware the titles are probably losslessly compressed (eg: (7)zip, gzip, etc) and then extracted, but I'm referring to lossy compression made to the game's resources.


title: Where to begin playing Call of Duty storyline?

text: I have played _COD: Black Ops_ and now I want to play the complete series. I have COD: MW3, but I've started to think that it has backstory in previous games and I want to play the full storyline. So, which game should I play first to experience the storyline properly?


title: Civ 5 mod compatibility

text: In the vanilla version of Civ 5 (the mac version), is it possible to add new civilizations as a mod? Because I added this mod and when I enable it, no new civ shows up when I go to select them. I'm not going back to the main menu after I enable the mods, so I don't know what the problem is.


title: Binding Of Isaac sound problem

title: What ways are there to increase MECs' ammo efficiency?

text: I am early in my first playthrough of XCOM: Enemy Within, and it seems that one of the limiting / balancing factors in MEC performance is ammunition: The minigun seems to only carry ammo for two shots, and a single use of Collateral Damage exhausts it. What ways are there to improve the number of shots that a MEC can get between reloading? For example,   * Does the Ammo Conservation foundry upgrade apply to MECs?   * Is there something in the MEC skill tree to help with this?   * Are future MEC weapons more ammunition-efficient than the Minigun?

title: How do I complete the Destroyer of Destiny achievement?

text: The Destroyer of Destiny requires that you destroy all 4 Activated Pillars in the Royal Crypt at once. This can obviously only be done when going to face the Skeleton King. The pillars are placed a fairly good distance apart and all of the AOE or AOE- like attacks that I have tried with either the Monk or Demon Hunter have failed to destroy all 4 pillars. Replaying the section from when the Templar joins up to the pillars is getting tedious and I'm really at a loss. What character/attack/strategy should I use? Is this something where you need a 4-player co-op to achieve it or something (exact timing on this would be bananas)?

title: Diablo 3 party system and skipping content

text: When I join my friends game, I was on the very beginning of act 2 and he was on part 7 of act 2. It put me on his quest cause I joined his game I guess. I played for awhile until we almost beat act 2. When I left his party and went to 'resume' game, my game was now where I left off from his party. On the hero select screen, it looked like:               Act 2:     Part 1.Start Quest     Part 7. ---     Part 8. ---     Part 9. ---      What happened to 1-7 and can I "Start Quest" on Part 1 without deleting all of the progress I had made in the party with my friend? If it does reset my act 2 back to part 1, do I keep all the gear I have or is that reset too?? I don't want to skip any content but I want to play with friends!!! I could see this being annoying in the next difficulty level. I want to get an achievement for killing butcher, but im playing with my friend who is already past him, so I can't without resetting my whole game back to act 1... Can someone sum up how this works? Thanks.


title: Is there a difference between "waiting methods"?

text: In Mount and Blade you can "Wait here for some time" in a castle, a city, a town (if it has a manor I think?), and a camp. In addition you can just stand around in the field and wait. Is there a difference between these? Other than the obvious price and safety difference, of course. Are trainers more effective in a camp than when just waiting in the field for example? Do heroes heal faster in any of them?


title: Improvement values are not correct in Skyrim

text: According to this source and many others, with smithing skill at level 100 and all the smithing perks, I should be able to improve my armor by 20 points, but what I discovered is that it's not correct for me. For example Deadric Boots with 26 armor(which also doesn't match the wiki, it should be 18, and I don't have any perks in Heavy Armor) the improvement is to 42, so it's 16 points. I don't have any clothes, gear or active magical effect on me. Turned off all mods and it's still the same. What should I do?


title: How does bonus experience on weapons work?

text: I currently have a bunch of equipment that gives experience bonuses, **but how do equipped weapons give experience?** I have a sword that gives a +10 experience per kill, but do I have to use the weapon in the kill to gain the bonus? Since I am using the Witch Doctor as my class and most of my kills are from a distance with magic, so I wasn't sure how that worked.


title: Can you see the debuffs on a mob?

text: When in a group of people killing this or that boss, due to all the effects it is difficult to see if my Witch Doctor's DoT is still on or if it ran out. Is there a way to see the debuffs that a mob (or boss at least) has on it like the little squares the player has?

title: What does "c/o" or "co" mean on the Diablo 3 trade chat?

text: I've seen several times that people offer goods for sale on the Diablo 3 trade chat and add the letters "co" or "c/o" what do they mean by it? From the decisions it seems to be some kind of auction because the messages usually go like: > WTS [something] 50k c/o pst with offers > > WTS [something] 100k c/o pst with offers > > WTS [something] 150k c/o pst with offers > > [someting] 200k c/o going once > > [someting] 200k c/o going twice > > [someting] 200k c/o sold What do they mean exactly, and what does the abbreviation stand for?

title: Is it ever explained in universe how the three races can use the same resources?

text: It is somewhat feasible to assume that Terrans and Protoss use the same Materials for building their stuff. But how do the Zerg fit into this? It seems strange to me that the Zerg use the very same resources that Terrans and Protoss. I do not remember that there was ever a satisfactory explanation of this in game. I have to admit though that my last playthrough of Starcraft 1 has been several years ago, so I do not remember if it was mentioned there.

title: Why are my reactions times different on different applications

text: I'm a league of legends gamer and well this year I wanted to improve, I know a lot about the game as it stands and last year I had read an article on reddit that was about improving your reflex and reaction time. I only started taking that seriously this year. Here is the problem or question I would like assistance with. Currently I train my reaction time using the following:   * Human benchmark   * Aim400kg   * Sheep Dash And my reaction times are on avg as follows respectively: 280Ms, 245Ms, 180Ms. I wanted to know why is it they are not constant, I had expected them to be around the same but after creating a database and recording my results from human benchmark (aim400kg is a site I only started using today same with sheep dash). Well I noticed that there is a lot of inconstancy and I want to know why and how will this affect me in game and in my training as well. //edit To all of you who are misunderstanding my question. First of all the applications above perform the exact same thing the button that must be pressed is in one area it does NOT move, in each application you are told to wait for an event one is moving sheep one and the other is a button/control changing color and you click on it. NONE of them have any different aside from the fact that one has a sheep that moves and the other two change color. BUT the results are inconsistent EVEN though I feel i react at more or less the same time I simply wanted to know why they are different EVEN though they all performing the same function and all more or less look exactly the same so i completely do not understand the need for the down vote but i will take it to mean your ignorant of the meaning of the question and that is your loss.

title: Can StarCraft 2 be played offline?

text: I've always thought that Starcraft 2 was Always Online, but I was talking to a college today and I found out there was an offline mode which just lacks access to achievements or custom maps (like I care for either). I've boycotted StarCraft 2 when I read that it was Always Online play because I don't want my main gaming powerhouse connected to the internet. So does StarCraft 2 require any net connection to start a single player game? I'm not going to waste money to buy it only to learn I can't play it.

text: After waiting in the queue for a while I finally entered the new Silvershard Mine Battleground. The Alliance was already losing at this point so I didn't really get a chance to figure things out from the start and everything was very hectic. I gathered that it has to do with the carts that spawn and moving them by standing in the circle around the cart, but what actually makes the cart move? How do you score points? I guess I am looking for a breakdown of the ins and outs of Silvershard Mine as there appears to be a lot more involved than a simple capture the flag.

title: How do I decide which weapons should be equipped, sold later, discarded, or kept and upgraded?

text: I would like to know good strategies with weapons I equip or keep in my inventory. Since I have a limited amount if items I can keep in my inventory, some weapons would have to be discarded once they're in low condition in favor of a new one or should be sold later. (I'm currently playing as Xian Mei.)   * What's a good way of knowing if the weapon I see or have is a 'keeper' or a weapon that should be discarded as soon as it is not needed or once it's in low condition, or if it's a 'sell later' type of weapon?    * Weapons will break down (get to low condition). Also, I will occasionally have to throw weapons to take care of enemies like Suiciders. Checking out the inventory and switching a weapon to/from the inventory won't stop the game, so I have to properly choose which weapons are equipped. (edit: Turns out this was due to not playing in singleplayer mode.) _What's a good way of deciding if a weapon should be equipped or kept in the inventory?_   * Upgrading a weapon costs money. _What weapons should I be upgrading or not upgrading (and hence, should sell or discard)?_   * I'm currently playing as Xian Mei, a sharp weapons specialist. If playing as her, _should I bother with blunt weapons? At what instances will it be recommended to keep a blunt weapon?_ Note: I have not played the first Dead Island game.

title: How do I counter Ayla's Rage ability?

text: I just finished a game of Awesomenauts where I was playing as Voltar. The enemy team had an Ayla who killed me at least 9 or 10 times with her Rage ability. I don't know what kind of build the enemy player was using, but as soon as they saw me on screen, they'd activate Rage, float up to me, and drain my health dry. The enemy player could move faster than I could so there was no way for me to get away. I only have around 10 online matches under my belt so I may not have a complete grasp of the game mechanics. (I had to read through the Awesomenauts wiki to even figure out what this infuriating ability/character that kept killing me was _called_.) What am I doing wrong? How can I counter this sort of play?

title: How can I access/play Kinect Fun Labs using the current dashboard?

text: I had Kinect Fun Labs and many of its mini-games installed on my XBox prior to the initial Metro/Tiles dashboard update of around a year ago. Now, after the latest dashboard update the files are still on my Xbox's hard drive (they show in Settings -> System -> Storage -> Games and Apps). But I can't find where to access/run it. There is a Kinect Central tile on the Dashboard's Home screen, but there doesn't appear to be any launcher for Fun Labs in there. It doesn't show up in the My Games list, or the My Apps list. Fun Labs can still be installed from this page on xbox.com Kinect Fun Labs but it shows as an add-on (it has the gamepad with a plus "+" sign over it), with no sign of which game or app it is an add-on to, the description also shows that its only 18months old (released 06/2011) I can't believe that an app would be so totally out of support already as to be inaccessible. I've tried deleting it and redownloading (from the link above) but that doesn't seem to make any difference either. Some of the mini-games in there were quite fun and I was hoping to play them with some young relatives who'd visited lately. Failing the above, is there any way to access the mini-games that were formerly hosted in Kinect Fun Labs, eg Googly Eyes, Bobble Head, Kinect Me, Build A Buddy, etc?

text: When I approach Vincon Traut in Chapter 2 in an attempt to obtain his enchanted armor, he warns me that it was a mistake to go there by myself. Spot on, Vincon -- I thought I was fairly comfortable with the combat system but your blade and your conspirators are making me look like a complete fool. I can't even kill a single one of you, since there are six men and I'm stuck in a small room with no space to roll around. You take advantage of me at the beginning of the battle by swinging your blade while I draw my sword, wiping away 20% of my health and making me bleed, too. It's not like Quen is of much use, either, since two men make such short work of it. How am I supposed to survive this encounter? Should I rely on extreme luck with Aard? Or is there some tactic that will make this encounter much easier for me?

title: Dwarf Fortress: Is there any way to get rid of wall grates?

text: I'm trying to build a nice, dwarfy waterfall in my main dining hall, which so far resulted in plenty of mudy Fun in my fortress. I've designed the waterfall well to be surrounded by wall grates, mostly for esthetic and security purposes, but all in all I'm not satisfied with this layout. The problem is that I can't destroy the wall grates. I can't q+x Remove Building. I can't d+n Remove Construction. Apparently there's no way to remove wall grates (if you don't count massive cave-ins). Did I miss anything? Is making a cave-in the only option as of .31.25?

title: Minecraft Groupmanager permissions not working

I've tried to play the first Witcher game a few times now and just haven't been able to get into it, just keep getting distracted by other things and forgetting the story so far and end up starting again. I've heard great things about the Witcher 2 but was wondering if it's sufficiently different for me to be able to enjoy it. For context I am a big fan of CRPG games including (in a rough descending order): Baldur's Gate, Planescape: Torment, KOTOR, Oblivion+Skyrim, Mount and Blade, Fable...

title: Do "Bodies Found" Count Against Ghosting?

text: Does anyone know if an enemy discovering the body of one of his sleeping comrades counts against you for a "Ghost" run? i.e. Not if they get any bolts in the 'detected' meter over their head, but if they just see the fellow thug/guard/etc and say something like "Hey! Wake up!". I was just wondering since it seems to show this stat on the summary screen after a mission and I thought this might mean it's important.

So, is it possible and if so how to assign two signs that can be switched quickly or even cast with different buttons?


title: How can I stop getting BSoDs when using MotionInJoy?

text: I've been using MotionInJoy for quite a while in order to use my PS3's controller as a gamepad, but have never been able to overcome a very serious issue I'm having with this setup. I never shut my computer down, as I prefer to have it hibernate (I'm on Win7 64-bit, by the way). However, whenever I hibernate my machine with my PS3 controller plugged in after having used it as a gamepad, I am **always** greeted by a blue screen of death when turning my machine back on. The only way I've found to avoid this so far is to safely turn off the controller and then physically disconnect it from my computer before hibernating. There are two main disadvantages to "solving" the problem this way:   1. It's a hassle.   2. It's something you can forget to do. I'm looking for a proper solution, where this issue would be resolved permanently without the requirement of constant fidgeting. I've tried snooping around online but all I could find were some confirmations of the problem back from the end of 2010, so I'm wide open for suggestions.


title: Won't Xbox Marketplace let me choose my own language?

text: I just purchased _Assassins Creed: Revelations_ on Xbox marketplace and woe, as usual, it assumes I want my damn game in Norwegian. The game is now riddled with horrendously badly translated Norwegian labels and it really really bothers me. The options lets me change the "game text" to English. If not I would simply delete the game and never look back. But every meta game label is still in Norwegian, and that's not even the point. It seems to me that Xbox marketplace checks my IP address, decides that I live in Norway and assumes that I suck at English and want all my content in Norwegian. It's enraging that I don't get to choose. Please tell me that I'm wrong and that I can **_COMPLETELY_** change the language of the game and the console to English. (Also please tell me how) * * * _**EDIT_** : I have actually started to play the game now, and it turns out the only thing about the game that is still English is the voice acting and subtitles. Every label, description, explanation, notice, warning and tutorial is still mind-numbingly badly translated into Norwegian. I have to fix this. I'm 20 minutes into the newest game in my favorite game series and I'm still just getting pissed by the fact that the label on X in an assassination scenario says "Drep" instead of "Assassinate" and similar atrocities. It's unacceptable - please help

title: civilization 5 domination victory capturing capitals

text: So I was reading the in-game help on how to achieve a domination victory, and I got a little confused. It said something about the last civilization possessing their original capital is the winner. Something about "if you capture 3 of your enemies capitals, and the 5th player sneaks in and captures your capital while you're not looking, they are the winner and not you." This makes sense except it counteracts what I thought I had learned from playing the game. I thought that you couldn't capture a civilization's capital unless you had captured all their cities first? But maybe it's that you can't capture their LAST capital unless you had captured all their cities first? Kind of a civ newb, thanks for the help.

title: Offline Demo Save Data to Full Version

text: I currently do not have the full version of Minecraft, but I've been using the semi-glitch where you can get the full (though not multiplayer, and not updated) version of the game by turning off your WiFi and logging into the demo. I assume this is a pretty well-known way to get around the demo, seeing as I was able to find it on my own. As far as I can tell, the servers do not notice that I do not have the paid version of the game, and therefore still let me into offline mode. Anyways, I would like to buy the full version sometime, but I was wondering if I would be able to transfer my saves from where they are now. I'm not even sure that I'm even using the demo version right now, which might mean that I'll lose all my save data. I've built up a pretty significant base, and that would really not be fun to redo. Does anyone have information on this?


title: Is there any reason not to use 'Spawn Locusts' in the mission 'The Crucible'?

There were achievements associated with the Wings of Liberty mechanic so I tried to hold out as long as possible without using it but had to in the end.

I would still like to continue playing starcraft but everytime I come down I get my account locked for suspicious activity.

Or to set up a proxy on my computer to somehow download the game in san diego anyways without password change. (everything on the computer in San Diego gets cleared as soon as I leave even if im going to be back in a day there is nothing I can do about it so dont include possibilities of resolving this problem in the answer. I also cannot take my computer when I travel)


title: Can terror attacks be prevented in early game?

text: In _X-Com: UFO Defense / UFO: Enemy Unknown_ (the 1994 original), I've already encountered two alien terror attacks by February 2000, when I'm only on one base and at the tech level of laser weapons. They usually involve heavy casualties and result in a poor score. Is it feasible in early game to prevent terror attacks somehow? Is it possible to detect and intercept the ships responsible for terror attacks, or otherwise disrupt them?

I often read about keeping the enemy away from creep xp, how far do I have to push them back? what about denies? **turrets** Do I get anything from kills by turret? ** heroes* How much experience do I get for a kill and / or assist?

I am lacking the slots to put the upgrades in, because finding the P Crystals I need to unlock slots is rather slow going. Is there anything else I can spend my hard-earned riches on?

title: Do skin makers with lower-rarity skins get more money?

text: Not sure if this goes in gamedev.SE or gaming.SE, but here goes. Apparently users who contribute skins to the game that Valve adds will receive a small profit every time a user gets their gun. Does this mean that since higher rarity guns will spread out far less than lower rarity guns, do the contributors who contribute lower rarity guns get more money? Or is the profit solely derived from the user unboxing the crate?


title: How to deal with enemies bypassing your forces in Europa Universalis 4?

text: I was trying to take Egypt down a peg because they are obsessed with sowing discontent in my empire. From a military point of view I had no problem with it--I took 6 provinces and won every battle. However, I couldn't get any settlement out of them because my warscore was too low--as far as I can tell the problem is he would keep sending a small force to siege one of my provinces. I would have to pull an army off siege duty to take care of it. I'm not sure if it was the sieges or the abandoning of my own sieges but I only had an 8% warscore at that point. The AI seems to have a basically perfect ability to avoid unwanted combat while moving, short of blocking every path (for which I didn't have the forces) I see no way to stop what he was doing.

title: What is the best tactic for finding cicada cages in A Tale in the Desert?

text: I'm looking for more insightful comments than "run through the desert with your speakers turned up" or "go where you think others won't." Do you have any specific tactics that have worked well for you? Things that aren't on the test's wiki page -- that seem to be working so far, and best of all -- have helped you pass the test in previous tellings. Before the Oyster test introduced swimming (in T4?), there was a whole ferry- chain, island-hopping game involved in cicada placement. Talking about that would be a great answer if it weren't for swimming having negated the issue. What other kinds of things like that are there?


title: Who has been buffed in Blazblue: Continuum Shift?

text: I am curious, I am a fan of Blazblue but had originally not intended picking up the sequel, at least not right away. However after playing it with a friend who got it I thoroughly enjoyed it. This was mainly because I felt like many characters got a significant buff. This got me wondering, which characters have been buffed in the game compared to the original? In particular, one of my favorite characters, Bang, who was kind of weak in the original felt signifcantly buffed. In my search for info most of the pages have gone into extreme technical detail. I'm more looking for something a more casual fan of the game may be able to understand. The more detailed answers though are not discouraged =)

(I have full control over the server, as I'm writing a basic admin interface)   * Is there a command-line argument I can append to my `java -jar ...` command to have minecraft only print the version and exit?   * Can I extract the Jar file and look/grep for a specific file? **UPDATE** I've created an issue with the Minecraft Bug Tracker here, we'll see what happens from the Mojang team. :)


title: How do I deal with early Reapers as Zerg?

text: I have mixed results when dealing with reapers. What do you guys do to handle them? I almost always scout them, that is not a problem. My problem is I just don't know how much static defense I should devote to the rush, or even any at all. I feel I go overboard, getting a 2nd queen and 3 spine crawlers which costs 600 minerals. That is a lot early game. EDIT: The early reaper rush I'm referring to is merely when you have 1 or 2 running around your main.

title: What are the incentives of getting a job over other money-making activities?

text: I've noticed my Sims seem to earn a _lot_ more money when gardening than they do at their day jobs. After crunching the numbers, I found out this wasn't just an illusion - depending on the crop of choice, a Sim can earn money two to three times faster with gardening than they can at an entry-level day job with roughly the same amount of player effort. If the player has time to devote to constantly refreshing crops that have shorter growing cycles, much higher rates are easily possible! Of course, the Sims do advance in their careers and so can earn more money with their day jobs. But, by the time that's achieved, the player can just as quickly have reached a level where even higher-yield low-effort crops are available. So, where's the real incentive for the Sims to get a job? Is it just a matter of player preference and role-play, or are there other benefits in the game's mechanics that I'm just not seeing yet?

text: I just bought Grand Theft Auto 5, and I am looking forward to playing it. But I'd like to know whether any of the old characters make an appearance in the new game. I know the new game is based around new protagonists, but do any of the old characters (such as Carl Johnson, The Truth, Sweet etc) make an appearance? If so, is it simply a cameo, or are they interwoven into the storyline?

title: Is the Atomic Wrangler necessary for The Courier Who Broke the Bank?

text: OK, I just got the Courier Who Broke the Bank achievement, having taken just a hair over 15,000 caps from the Ultra-Luxe. (I have a lot of patience, and like blackjack.) Thing is, I'd already broken the bank at Atomic Wrangler. I didn't know whether or not it was necessary for the achievement, but since it had such a low limit (and a personal goal was to get banned from gambling at every casino), I took it down in between Gomorrah and Ultra-Luxe. Was that necessary for the achievement, or just my own personal goal?


title: What was Klunk's motive for helping Ratchet defeat Courtney Gears in Ratchet & Clank 3: Up Your Arsenal?

text: In Ratchet & Clank 3: Up Your Arsenal, Clank gets replaced with 'Klunk' by Dr Nefarious, after filming an episode of _Secret Agent Clank_ at the Holostar Studios. Ratchet is unaware of this, and continues his journey with Klunk none the wiser. Eventually, Klunk reveals his true intentions (in Metropolis on planet Kerwan). Dr Nefarious explains that he replaced Clank, has a laugh, and teleports away, leaving Ratchet to battle with the transformed 'Giant Klunk' in order to rescue Clank. But (literally) just before this happens (1-2 levels away), Ratchet and Klunk infiltrate Obani Draco, an artificial moon used by Dr Nefarious to experiment with the Biobliterator. There they confront Courtney Gears (who is in league with Nefarious), and do battle with her, eventually defeating her. Klunk then quips: > "One disposable Pop-star... disposed" **But why does Klunk not team up with her?**   * Courtney knew who Klunk was, having been part of the plan to capture Clank in the first place. They could've teamed up together and taken Ratchet out, making the point of Klunk confronting him solo later a moot point.   * Courtney was a valuable asset to have, as far as Dr Nefarious was concerned. As a vocal supporter of Nefarious' plan, she could've been used as a front to promote the transformation as a good thing (and in fact was already doing so). As such I don't buy the 'disposable pop star' line. She was worth far more than was implied.   * Klunk was in communication with Dr Nefarious (this was shown throughout the other cutscenes). Even if he wasn't sure whether he should reveal himself at that stage, he could've asked Nefarious for guidance.   * At the time, Dr Nefarious was only really concerned with getting revenge against Qwark, and didn't see Ratchet as much of a threat. He idolised Clank (for his role in _Secret Agent Clank_ ), and that's what drove him to offer Clank to join his side in the first place. But he made Klunk to spy on the Q-Force in general, and keep tabs on their movements, as opposed to Ratchet specifically. Getting him to blow his cover, take Ratchet out, and fly back to the Starship Phoenix to continue spying on the Q-Force (whilst 'mourning') has no real downside from Nefarious' point of view.


title: 3x3 Slider Puzzle, is this impossible to solve?

title: How do you use "Marked For Death"? What's the best way?

text: I'm a level 60 demon hunter who's just reached Inferno. I usually use Elemental Arrow w/ Nether Tentacles or Impale w/Chemical Burn as my main damage dealer and Hungering Arrow w/whatever rune to build hatred. I use a mix of Smoke Screen/Caltrops/Vault/Evasive Fire plus increased movement speed gear to kite around. This seems like a pretty common sort of build, but I frequently see others using Marked For Death. I cannot seem to wrap my head around why. Would someone please describe a strong way to use it? It seems like kiting and using the Steady Aim passive would automatically be better - especially on higher difficulties where you have to kite or be very mobile just to survive. I'm not crapping on Marked For Death. I'm really curious about how other people use it.

title: Why can I sometimes take half of a shops items while the oher half is considered stealing?

text: I notice that sometimes in certain shops, houses, etc. that a large portion of the owner's items are available to just 'take', while other items remain marked as 'stealing'. I'm just a little confused at being able to walk into a shop and simply take half of the goods right in front of the owner. Is this just a bug or is it because I have a good standing with the owner or something? If it's a 'good-standing' related reason I guess I still don't fully understand the logic behind being able to more or less 'rob' the owner legitimately.


title: What determines if item would be stolen or just taken?

text: > **Possible Duplicate:**   >  Why can I sometimes take half of a shops items while the oher half is > considered stealing? When inside house, usually all items say "steal" instead of "take" - make sense, all good. But sometimes some items are "stealable" while others can be taken without any fear of stealing, and sometimes even in the same cabin/chest some items are red while others are not. What determines this behavior? Sometimes I did quests for the house owners then most items became eligible to take but sometimes even in empty house, I could still take some items without stealing them.


title: Is it safe to pick up items in Skyrim?

text: > **Possible Duplicate:**   >  Why can I sometimes take half of a shops items while the oher half is > considered stealing? There are quite a few items it seems, in the shops I have come across so far, that are available to be picked up with out paying for them that do not have their name in red text showing you are stealing them either. Is there any sort of consequence to collecting these items? Its like almost every Iron item in Alvor's shop. Over half of the items in the alchemy shop in the next town and the like. I initially thought it was because Alvor was trying to help me out in any way possible, as long as I didnt want steel items. But this seems to be just the standard layout of the shops.


title: Skyrim: Everything Is Not Permitted

text: > **Possible Duplicate:**   >  Why can I sometimes take half of a shops items while the oher half is > considered stealing? I've noticed that upon meeting certain people and doing a quest for them to earn their trust, certain things that would be considered stolen are able to be obtained without any trouble and are not labeled as stolen. Though I can't recall the name I remember there was a quest in which you sent a message to a woman about why mining operations were slow and that the shipment would be there soon. After, if you go back to the quest giver's house you can take all the ingots and ore in his house and despite it saying "Steal" at the bottom, he does not care and lets you obtain them without trouble. Are there any other situations like this where you may take an NPC's item with their consent so to say?

When do they unlock? Is it at some point during the story? Or do I have to do something like complete the whole story?

text: My civilization has founded Christianity. Thinking I could corner the market on religion like I did in Civilization 4, I saved up faith to trigger another great prophet.

The game continues to inform me that there are _n_ religions left to be founded, but is it not possible to found more than one per civilization? If it is possible, what requirements are necessary to found religions after the first one?

Following the instructions (and using some ultra fine sandpaper to sand out the really bad scratches), **I was able _polish_ and _sand_ out the scratches on one disc**, while another remains unplayable, despite repeated repair attempts. Using the plastic polishing kit requires a lot of time and effort. **I'm lazy and want it to be easier and simpler.** **Is this the best way to repair a disc?** Are there any repair tools that are generally accepted, known, and proven to work? Do any game publishers support replacing damaged discs?

I.e., if I am _ignoring_ bonuses from attributes (class DEX/INT/STR, attack speed, extra crit damage), will the sum of two one-handed weapons' big numbers exceeding a two-handed weapon's big number indicate an increase in DPS? Or is it largely useless/futile to compare weapons this way? ![Big, white number](http://i.stack.imgur.com/UqUnO.png)

title: 2v2: ZP/T vs TT - how to not fall behind

text: This is a specific 2v2 question regarding my partner and I as Terran/Zerg or Protoss/Zerg respectively, against a team of Terran/Terran. Assume 6+ player map, possibly shared base. I find that we keep falling behind. We scout and see they are walling in. Should I tech to banelings immediately? Fast expand? Should we harass the wall? It seems often I find we get behind in drone count and army composition OR we simply fall to smart counters. So my question is when opening in 2v2, on a large map, with opponents that are probably going to wall in, what do I need to do as a zerg player to compliment my partner who will either be Terran or Protoss? How I tend to play is that I seem to be a stickler for early speedling play off of one base, moving into a roach/hydra combo OR ling/muta depending on the early pressure. Expansions are often late, imo.

title: Am I misunderstanding Monk's Sixth Sense ability?

text: I've been trying to set up a crit build on my Monk, so naturally, the Monk's Sixth Sense ability is somewhat attractive for me. > Your dodge chance is increased by an amount equal to 30% of your critical > hit chance. The clincher here though is that I've never been able to move away too far from the Monk's seemingly flat `5%` critical hit chance. The only things I've seen that bump that up are:   1. **Items**. But that doesn't count for much -- the most I've seen so far averages at +3% (am at late nightmare).   2. **The Scoundrel**. An ability provides an easy +3% as well. So far that bumps me up to about `10~11%` crit chance, which is extremely _meh_ for Sixth Sense, considering that something like `The Guardian's Path` autos a +15% on evasion off the bat (Sixth Sense pops at `+~3%` with the adds I've mentioned. Now, I'm thinking: am I missing something here? Are there ways to increase my crit chance which I haven't discovered? Or does Sixth Sense work exactly as advertised, off a flat Monk 5% crit chance? If so, I question the rationale behind offering such a skill, especially against something like the aforementioned The Guardian's path.

text: In Oblivion and Morrowind, you could further increase the graphics, even beyond the standard maximum configurations of their config tool, by tinkering around with various settings in the games *.ini files. I assume that this is the case for Skyrim as well. What are some values that I should take a look at to get the maximum out of Skyrim?


title: Will a dedicated sound-card decrease CPU load?

text: Assume the CPU is the bottleneck in my PC's performance (I've a great GPU and tons of RAM), and lets say I'm playing a game that permanently maxes out the CPU load. My PC has no dedicated sound-card. Now, If I install a dedicated sound-card (something average price, nothing really fancy), will it improve performance on the mentioned scenario? I'm not asking if the sound card improves audio quality. I'm asking if it will lighten up CPU load by a few percentage points. Given a good graphics card, most of the graphics-processing should be assigned to the GPU, but the processor still has a lot to do, is sound-processing a significant part of that? ( _edit_ ) More specifically: **does sound-processing consume a significant amount of CPU time in modernd high-end games (assuming there's a good GPU to take the hit from graphics processing)?** Will a dedicated sound-card take care of it? Does it matter if the headset is USB or audio-jack?

text: I'm in the Yaga Shura's Lair, and there's a big door which I can't open, it says I'm not strong enough (but my strength is 21!). I killed all the mobs in the area, there doesn't seem to be much else I can do. How do I open the gates?


title: Can I refund a perk point?

text: While leveling in Skyrim I put a perk in a tree, but now I feel like it is wasted, since I've found blowing things up with spells is much more fun than stabbing things with a giant sword. Is there anyway for me to recover the wasted perk? I'm on the PC so I was guessing console commands could help.

title: Can I delete quests?

title: How do I get rid of quests stuck in my quest log?

text: > **Possible Duplicate:**   >  Is there a way to clear quests from your journal in skyrim I have a couple of misc objective that are stuck in my quest log and I can't seem to delete them. I've tried using 'showquesttargets', but only the quests which are actually active show up there.


title: How do I remove Journal entries in Skyrim, or mark them as finished?

text: > **Possible Duplicate:**   >  Is there a way to clear quests from your journal in skyrim I have searched on the internet for this, and there appears to be only scripts to remove items from the inventory but not mark as complete in the journal. This happens usually because I inadvertently completed a quest before Stuff that I've already done. Examples:   1. Find Rjorrn's Drum   2. Find Finn's Lute   3. "Speak to Nelacar" entry in _The Black Star_ These are all for now, but I'm sure more will come as I continue exploring Skyrim. Does anyone know the script to mark these tasks "finished", because it makes me _twitch_. And I did try _setstage missionName stagenumber_ but that does not affect the journal... help!

title: Keyboard shortcuts

text: Is there a comprehensive list of mouse/keyboard shortcuts for SpaceChem? I read somewhere than you could change the priority of bonders using ctrl+scroll wheel. I would be especially interested in a shortcut to instantly place a bond+ instead of bond+/- and then having to right-click to change it.
