title: What comes on the World of Warcraft Cataclysm DVD?

text: Does the Cataclysm Expansion Pack DVD will contain all the content from the Original, Burning Crusade, and Wrath of the Lich King. If it does, is there any requirements to download anything before the 4.0.1 patch. Understandably, there will be required patches for any version later than 4.0.1. The Wrath of the Lich King DVD came with all the content of the past on the disk. There was no need to download anything before 3.0. Yes the account will need to have the access/keys to all of the versions. Which is the case for my accounts. _Please post a reference link along with your answer if possible._


title: How do I unlock the Showcase?

text: The game told me to "Keep developing", but it's been years now and I still don't have the Showcase for displaying end-game clothes. How do I unlock the Showcase?


title: How do you extinguish the Fire Elemental?

text: The area boss of Metrica Province, the Fire Elemental, is ridiculously hard to even fight, much less kill. The boss itself bombards the area with AOE knockdown DOT effects that will generally take me out in one direct hit, while also firing off slow-moving, hard to see projectiles that, again, will take me out in one shot. In the meantime, the boss also spawns flying Embers that chip away at your health and get in your way when you try to dodge the first two attacks. Because of all this, I find that I'm generally down within about 30 seconds of running into the chamber, which is frustrating because it takes about a minute to hike back from the nearest waypoint. Is there a good strategy for reliably staying alive long enough to actually do damage? Is there some particular direction in which I should be cajoling the people in the area? Should I focus my equipment in any particular way?


title: What are Ice Towers useful for?

text: The description of Ice Towers states that they "freeze bloons in its burst radius for a short time. Frozen bloons are immune to sharp objects". Considering the whole point of this game is to shoot various things (most of which are sharp!) at bloons to pop them....what good is the Ice Tower?


title: What is "Legion's Mission in Mass Effect 3?"

text: Everywhere I look for help in uniting the Geth and the Quarians, I only see Legion's Mission in Mass Effect 3 only referred to as just that: Legion's Mission in Mass Effect 3. Even here: How do I establish peace between the Geth and the Quarians? And here: Brokering peace between quarian and geth options don't appear ...it is only cryptically referred to as "Legion's Mission in Mass Effect 3." There is no indication as to the actual name of the quest, when I receive it, and what prequisites there are, if any.


title: How to avoid Ice Storm Scroll suicide

text: I have a scroll of Ice Storm. Whenever I try to cast it, the storm seems to be centered on me. It inflicts damage on me and my follower, quickly killing us. From reading the UESP and Wikia pages on Ice Storm, it sounds like it's supposed to be a slow-moving projectile launched at my target. When I cast Fireball it acts as I would expect, launching the spell away from me at my target. But Ice Storm seems to be a self-focused and self-detrimental area of effect. Am I doing something wrong?


title: What is the penalty for dying in SWTOR?

text: In many MMO's, there is a (sometimes huge) penalty for dying. For example in Lord of the Rings Online, there used to be a huge dread penalty, which made it very hard for you to win battles for half an hour. Your armour would be damaged as well, leading to high repair costs. Now I was wondering, what are the penalties for dying in The Old Republic?


title: Team Fortress 2: Meaning of Bronze, Silver, etc.?

title: How does dual-wielding affect weapon skill special attacks and stat bonuses?

text: Do the stat bonuses and passive special attack chances from weapon skills double when dual-wielding two weapons of the same type? Do they stack when dual-wielding with two different weapon types (i.e. a mace and a staff)? What about when using a weapon skills active attacks?


title: What are the hidden trophies?

text: I am looking through my list of Trophies for **_Goldeneye 007: Reloaded_** on the PS3 and there is one hidden trophy I am missing. If you order the list by "original order" it appears between "Clobbering" and "Hat Trick" - which makes me wonder if it is an online (public match) trophy. Anybody have any ideas? Searching online I only found a list of the following 3 hidden trophies, all of which I have already...   1. Dance Commander - Surrender to the music in "Nightclub"   2. Rocket Man - Kill an enemy with the RPG in "Dam"   3. Royal Flush - In "Facility", successfully kill the enemy in the toilet cubicle without any shots being fired   4. Cheated - Public Match: Get killed the most times by Oddjob's hat (min 3 deaths)   5. Welcome to Russia - Make the initial rendezvous with 006 in 'Dam' **EDIT** Thanks to @Adeese, I was able to find that there are two more hidden trophies (added 4 & 5 to the list above)


title: How to install GLSL shader mod on Minecraft 1.5.2?

text: I tried installing the GLSL Shaders Mod, but no matter what I try, it just uses the default lighting. I'm using Minecraft 1.5.2 with Magic Launcher 1.1.4 and I have these mods installed (in order):   1. minecraftforge-universal-1.5.2-7.8.0.684   2. OptiFine_1.5.2_HD_U_D3   3.

title: Why can't I play Street Fighter 4 online between different versions?

text: I have Super Street Fighter 4 + Arcade Edition DLC and all costumes. My friend has Super Street Fighter 4. We are trying to play against each other, but when I receive an invite, I can't join in his session and when I send an invite, he receives a message that tells that he needs to download something. As far as I know, the problem is not with the costumes DLC, since I already played against a lot of people that does not have alternate costumes. He tried to download and install the Update Kit for SSFIV, but the problem continues. I tried to change the version of my game, but the problem continues too. Do you know what we are doing wrong? Is it impossible to play with two different versions? I'm asking this because in the network battle I have an option to play against SSFIV only. I almost forgot. We are using PS3.


title: Do I have to find all magicks, moose, and secret areas in one playthrough?

text: I've just started playing Magicka. For the achievements **I put on my robe and wizard hat** , **King's Quest** , and **Sherlock Holmes** , do I have to get everything in one playthrough? For example, King's Quest requires you to find 12 moose. If I only have found 8 by the time I finish the game, when I replay, will I only have 4 to go or will I have to "re-tag" those 8 I already found again? Or does finding parts of these achievements "stick"?


title: What is the $/K on the stats screen?

text: I'm wondering what the $/K stat on the score screen is. What does it mean? How is it calculated?


title: Are there more Golden Temple levels?

text: So last night I unlocked and completed level 9-1. So I now have all the K-O- N-G letters and all the puzzle pieces. I went to view the image gallery, since I have collected all the puzzle pieces, and I noticed that the "Golden Temple" gallery has a picture of level 9-1, and then lots of other levels I've never seen: a minecart level wrapping around a giant banana, a Super Paper Mario style level, and a Virtual Boy level, among others. Are these real levels that are unlocked by completing enough mirror mode or time trial levels? It seems weird that there would only be one level in world 9. I've checked the three FAQs on GameFAQs and none mention any levels beyond 9-1, but they all appear to be incomplete too.


title: Is there a way to select all items in a list?

text: For example, when I go to drop items, put items into a chest, or pick up items off the floor, is there a way to select all the items visible in the list, rather than just quickly typing "abcdefgh..."? I know sometimes I can choose categories of items but that seems just to filter which show up. I would like a shortcut to select everything in the list of specific items.


title: Is it possible to pass every skill check in Long Live the Queen?

text: It seems that there are skill checks early on in the game which are extremely difficult or impossible to pass because of the mood penalties making it hard to increase the relevant skill. **Is it possible to pass all the skill tests? If it is, how do I optimise Elodie's skill gain in order to do so?**


title: Is there something I need to do to get squid to spawn?

title: Most viable strategy champion 5 picks for 1v1 showdown

text: Showdown: In the 1v1 games will be blind draft. Each player has the opportunity to ban out three champions, after which the game proceeds to a blind pick phase. After both players have locked in their picks, there will be an additional period of time in which the enemy picks are revealed to each player - this gives players a chance to adjust runes, masteries and summoner spells accordingly before the match starts. Victory can be assured by one of three ways: you can score first blood, waveclear your way to 100 CS, or demolish the enemy turret before they take down yours. Now the strategies are:   * Keep calm, farm up   * All in for first blood   * Push the lane and tower All of these require different champions. What would be the most viable strategy and best 5 picks in this mode, depending on the tournaments riot organised.


title: Can you change your hunter name?

text: Somewhat self-explanatory, really. I've had my current hunter name for awhile, chose it mostly on a whim because I thought I'd be hunting solo for the most part. Now that I will be hunting online, I want to change my name, but I don't know where to do this or whether it is even possible.


title: Alternative counter-insults in Monkey Island 1?

text: Are there more than one possible reply to the insults? I vaguely remember playing Secret of Monkey Island a long time ago and ending up in a sword fight against either a pirate or the sword master, unfortunately can't remember which one. They threw an insult at me which I didn't have the correct counter- insult for yet, so I replied with another one that was kind-of fitting. And won the match despite using an "incorrect" reply. **EDIT:** I'm not sure if the insult was this one, but this is what I mean:               Insult: Only once have I met such a coward!     Reply: He must have taught you everything you know.     Alternative reply: I'm glad to hear you attended your family reunion.      I don't currently own a playable version of Monkey Island so I can't verify if they work myself.


title: How do I access Dragons Dogma one from Dark Arisen?

text: I just bought the game dark arisen and it says on the cover that it includes the entire game one. how do I access game one? I tried starting it up and it began in the middle of all this stuff and is quite confusing. im new to the game and yes I know, clearly ignorant... but any help would be appreciated.


title: Is stat growth related to the current job when levelling up?

text: I googled a lot for this question but it's hard to get a final answer to this question because the PSP system seems to be very different from the original one, since on PSP class levelling is global. As far as I understand, in the PSP version, the answer to my question is 'NO', since the only stat's increment is about base stats (+.1 to all base stats when levelling up.). So there is no difference in gaining 10 levels in the Warrior class and then switch to a level 1 Knight (for example) than gaining 10 levels in the Cleric class and then switch to a lavel 1 Knight. Am I right?


title: Can I enchant additional affixes or effects onto items?

text: Now that the enchanter has become available with the Reaper of Souls expansion, I am wondering her capabilities. let's say for example I'm a Monk and have a rare item with the following effects: Primary   * 400 Dexterity   * 400 Vitality   * Increases Critical Hit Chance by 7% Secondary   * 90 Cold resistance   * 20% Gold from monsters Can I add another primary effect to this item? Or am I limited to overwriting one of the effects it already has? I have seen rares with up to 6 effects in the past, is that simply something I'll have to get lucky on (regarding the base number of effects)?


title: What triggers the "deserter" debuff when leaving a dungeon group?

title: What happens in Assassin's Creed 2 when you find all the feathers?

text: Getting all the feathers is a grind and tedious for me. Is it worth getting them?


title: How do I speed up egg hatching?

text: Some Pokemon eggs take many thousands of in-game steps to hatch. I'm only interested in breeding in late parts of the game, mostly after I have beaten the League. Since I've already done virtually all the things I wanted to do, I only generate a minimum of steps. **Is there some way of speeding up the hatching?** I don't want to press D-pad arrows all day just so I can get an egg to hatch. **Edit:** I'm playing Heart Gold, in case it's relevant.


title: Not-So-Squishy Slark

text: Slark being a squishy hero is a known fact. Standing 1v1 against him is quite hard. Even at low levels. I can't be teaming up all the time just to kill him. The following are my rather defensive approaches   1. Tower hugging - saves me with very low HP   2. Hex/stun and run    3. Blade mail and assault - potent but he heals and comes back fast.   4. Force staff myself. Any counter heros or offensive strategies particularly for 1v1?


title: How do Dark Side and Light Side points work with regard to your faction?

text: I know that gaining points in one primary direction will allow you to unlock special items, but I was wondering how it affected your standing with your chosen faction. If I'm playing as a Jedi of the Republic, and go down the dark side path, do I become a Sith and/or have the option of joining the Empire? Do other Jedi or "good guys" respond less favorably towards me?


title: How can I effectively kill giants in melee combat?

text: I read some good hints in this question, but I am a warrior. I don't want to run around the giant throwing him dozens of arrows, I want to fight him face to face, mace to mace. I am level 25 now, specialized in 1-hand combat, shield and heavy armor. Is it possible to challenge a giant in melee combat and win? What equipment should I use that can help me against giants, or better yet, what skills can help me out here?

title: Is there a good addon that will inform me when my poisons are going to expire?

text: I've just started levelling up a rogue and I keep missing when my poisons end. Is there a decent addon for warning me when they're about to run out, or when I have none applied? I'm looking for something with an audible warning, screen flash and/or message in the middle of my screen. I play on a 30" monitor and the buff icons are quite often out of my field of view. I had a look around on Curse but the ones I found don't seem to have been updated in a while, like Cyanide Poison Reminder but has been updated for 4.3.


title: How do I make bandits stop following me on the map

text: In Mount and Blade (the original, vanilla) I keep getting chased by much stronger enemies (looters, steppe bandits, deserters etc). They prevent me from reaching where I want to go and occasionally catch on to me. Either by chasing me into another group of bandits or by running faster. Usually this ends up in a battle where I lose my entire crew and end up even more vulnerable to these bandits. I'd like to prevent these battles that I will lose with certainty. **What are the requirements for the bandits to stop following me?** **What are effective strategies to prevent battles against stronger armies?** With requirements I mean like being out of a certain range, being covered by a city, woods, mountains... whatever makes them stop. I am aware that the pathfinding skill improves map speed (is this significant enough to invest in it?) and usually all or most of my troops are mounted. I recruit the default warriors that cost 10 denar each. Here's an example of what I am talking about: ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/nQIx5.jpg) When hovering above these enemy troops it states "following miva" or something similar.


title: Black Ops / MW3 differences

text: What are the actual differences between Black Ops and MW3? I'm talking about the differences between online and offline play modes as well as differences in actual gameplay and also things like differences in perks etc. For example, bots are present in black ops for offline matches which is absent in MW3 (although there are the special ops modes). If I were to ask a pro player the differences between the two, what would they say? (I'm not asking for a huge list of all the actual differences between perks, just general game design)


title: Are heavy damage and light damage mutually exclusive?

text: At first, I was putting bonus % damage against lightly wounded targets on all my gear, under the assumption that anyone who is damaged would count. I.E., if you stab me once, I'm bleeding a bit. Stab me twice, and I'm bleeding heavily - but I'm still bleeding a bit...right? In Amalur, maybe not. So my question is, do "lightly wounded" and "heavily wounded" act as mutually exclusive states, akin to bonus damage during day/night? Or are heavy wounds simply a continuation of the lightly wounded state, akin to real-wirld logic?


title: Which profession can achieve permanent or near-permanent swiftness?

text: Which skill combos of which professions can reliably achieve an effectively permanent swiftness boon through slot and weapon skills, without chance skills or traits? If there is none, which combos have the highest percentual swiftness duration per cycle?

title: Does Steam version of RAGE contain Sewer Missions?

text: I have not encountered any **Sewer Missions** on job boards while playing through RAGE. The Wiki only describes the Wasteland Sewer Missions as X360 DLC. However in game properties in Steam I can see _"Rage Sewers DLC"_. Is it something different than the X360 DLC? Or maybe I need to do something to activate this DLC? ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/H3UWb.png)

title: What does the "A -15%" statistic mean when shopping for armor?

text: I was shopping for some armor last night, and I noticed a statistic on the armor purchase screen that I hadn't seen in previous AC games. It looked like the "Assassin's Logo" (a stylized A of sorts) followed by "-15%". What is this for? I didn't notice it on the armor/inventory equip screens after I'd purchased it. My best guess is it's some sort of discount for being an Assassin. I could see why you might want to give a guy who has robes full of pointy things a discount, but why 15%? If it is a discount, how can I get a _bigger_ one?

title: How will the holy priests' healing mechanics work in the next patch?

text: I have been keeping up to date on the changes that Blizzard will be making to priests in the next patch in preparation for Cataclysm. Unfortunately, I do not have time to play on the PTR. I was wondering if anyone knows how holy priests healing mechanics will be yet. The patch should come out in the next 2 weeks or so and I fear how ICC will go when it does. I know that Mana will, yet again, be more difficult to manage like in Burning crusade, but with chakras and all the buffs you get from using smite (and other new spells and such), I am quite lost on how to heal as a Holy priest after the patch comes out. If anyone has been on the PTR and has a clue, or even wants to theorize, feel free to answer.


title: Is it ever worth it to sing to a butterfly?

text: Singing to a butterfly gives you an indeterminate amount of experience points but it also costs a great deal of energy--seemingly more energy the further into the game you go. So is it ever 'worth' the energy expenditure of singing to a butterfly in order to gain experience? It seems like it's never going to be more valuable to sing to a butterfly than just to do the regular things (like making recipes, etc.) to gain experience more slowly but with predictable energy expenditure than to gamble on butterfly singing, but I am afraid there is something in the experience I am missing since I have only done it a handful of times in 25 levels.

title: Xbox 360 slim power supply unit issue

text: My Xbox 360 Slim's power supply unit got burned. The reason is that the input AC voltage ( **100-127v** ) is not supported in my country (here it's **240v** ). There were three electric shock sounds from inside the PSU (visible smokes also appeared) and immediately after that I disconnected the wire from my AC wall adapter. What I want to know is, did my **System** also get fried along with the PSU? The PSU was plugged into my System when it got burnt. Please share your expertise ideas here. **UPDATE:** System didn't turn on (I didn't even touch it) just 3 poped electric noises from the PSU and my house's fuse is also went down. No lights or sounds came from the System. **UPDATE 02:** Bought a power supply from eBay that is compatible to my countries power difference * * * Input: AC 100 - 240V ~ 2A 47-63H * * * Output: DC 135W 12V---10.83A * * * Plugged it and voila..! Xbox did turned on and it's just working fine,except the power adapter sounds a little noisy (I guess this is because it's not the original and made in China). Thanks.

title: How do I find Meridia's Beacon in Skyrim?

text: I started the quest "The Break of Dawn", but when I set the quest as active it won't give me a quest marker. It also did this with the "The Legend of Red Eagle" but after a few hours, it randomly added a marker. Will it do this with Meridia's Beacon as well, or do I have to restart?


When there is only 1 system damaged, it makes its way there (at a leisurely pace) to effect repairs. But when the fertilizer hits the fan, they seem to spend more time running to the opposite end of the ship, and less time fixing broken systems.   1. _How does a System Repair Drone choose the order of repairs?_   2. _Is there a way to direct it to a different system, after it has set a destination?_ I found: _How do drones choose their targets?_ , but it only talks about Anti- Ship Drones.

With the new launcher, the "force update" button was removed, which wasn't a problem because I haven't needed to force update the game since then. Now I do need to force update, but I don't see how I can do that. Does anybody know how I can force the game to re-download all its automatically downloaded files?


title: Fists of Thunder Quickening Rune

text: Now with the hotfix, is fists of thunder still better to use for bosses and more single enemies over the AoE of crippling wave and the rising tide rune?

title: Civilization "doesn't want anything to do with me right now"?

text: So in Civilization V, I'm playing as Polynesia on an archipelago map. The first Civilization I come across is Greece, on an adjacent chain of islands some 20 hexes away from mine. About 10 turns after I meet them, they suddenly become hostile towards me and start egging me on about how weak my military is and how I should watch my back. When I check the details of our diplomacy, the only thing that appears (in red) is "they don't want anything to do with us right now". I had never seen this before, and I can't imagine what would trigger it. Moreover, they didn't covet my land, as they hadn't even seen it (this was only like, the 20th something turn, so they couldn't even sail over to it if they wanted to). Whatever it is, it must be pretty serious if it alone can trigger open hostility that quickly. Does anyone know what this means, and what triggers it?

title: Is it worth to play random?

text: > **Possible Duplicate:**   >  As a bronze league hopeful, is it better to focus on one race or should I > keep playing as random? Usually, I play one race. After being promoted to 1 more higher league I've tried to play random... Off course, I began to lose a lot... definitely, other races require other BO, other micro, other strategy, other skills. What I see beneficial of playing random is:   1. Your opponent doesn't know your race in the beginning and can't choose good BO from the very beginning, he needs to scout earlier (hart economy) or start from 'common' BO that can't be too scary for you usually as it could be if he plays SPECIFICALLY against your race.   2. Playing (and winning) random you will get almost twice more achievements: for example for 100 win as terran you will get only 4 "Solo Terran 10, 25, 50, 100" achievements. While playing random you will receive 4 "Solo Random 10, 25, 50, 100" and 6 more: "Solo Terran 10, 25", "Solo Zerg 10, 25", "Solo Protoss 10, 25" (some variations could happen though).   3. You practice different races, so your knowledge about their strong/weak sides could be better then if you play 1 race only.  As a drawback I could say that you won't play your 1 race as good if you will play other races too. What do you think about? Does other races knowledge value is bigger then better knowledge of your "own" race? Thanks a lot.

text: I am spending as much money in the shops as possible to try and unlock the various other shops. For Kicks and Shampoodles, I apparently have to spend large amounts of money at the Able Sisters' shop. Does the accessory shop off to the right count towards this total?


title: How can I visit a friend's island in Dragonvale?

text: My kids have exchanged friend codes, and received gem bonuses. How can they visit each other's islands? Note: Under social, there's a "Friends" pane that always reads "3 gifts available", but has no other entries other than "visit random island". The "gifts" tab is similarly blank. This is on a Kindle Fire HDX, with no Facebook accounts.


title: Can I transfer a Dragonvale world between accounts?

text: I foolishly let my child try Dragonvale... but on a Kindle Fire device I must now return. Can the world be packaged and transferred to an Android or iOS device account? On Kindle Fire specifically it appears each "Free Time" child gets their own world, are these parks transferable once the kids reach the age of majority and/or get their own Kindle?


title: Beagleboard SNES with non-Tomee controller?

text: Anyone here know anything about using non-Tomee controllers with BeagleSNES? The guide says there is only official support for Tomee, I was wondering if there was any unofficial.


title: How can I get an existing DA:O character image uploaded to the BioWare site?

text: I have an existing DA:O character that I created without logging into the BioWare site. After logging in the charcter data was uploaded but did not include the character images. A web search has suggested that the character images are only uploaded when the character is first created. Is this true? I would really like to upload my character image as I spent a lot of time getting it just right.


title: Read XBOX 360 save files on my PC

text: I have a memory stick that I have placed my DA:O saves files on, but I want to be able to read them on my PC (so I can use the toolset to extract the character settings/image). Unfortunately the XBOX does not write simple files to the stick. Is there any way to get the individual save files onto the stick or extract them from out of the XBOX save format?

title: How to take a car that makes a race challenging?

text: In Gran Turismo 4 for PS2, I play the Gran Turismo mode. When I take part in a race tournament, it often goes like this:   * Buy a car which is allowed to drive in this tournament   * Start the tournament   * Recognise that the car is far to fast (winning is easy) or to slow (winning impossible)   * Buy a new car or tune the car   * Try again - race is still to easy/too hard   * Tuning the car again   * Try again, and again, and again... I repeat the last steps often until I find a setup for my car so that the race is challenging, but possible to win. Unfortunately, this process takes very long (yesterday I spent 2 hours with it!), costly and annoying. Another problem is that the opponent cars are not always the same, so taking part twice in a race tournament could be easier one time and more challenging the other time. Is there a way to know in "advance" which car and setup I should take so that the race is challenging, but not impossible? Is this problem fixed in future Gran Turismo versions (Gran Turismo 5)?


title: Help! My Minecraft account just got hacked

text: After a good day of school, I went home and opened my laptop. I went to play Minecraft, but when I opened the launcher, it said that I hadn't bought the game yet. What the hell?! I did buy the game!!! So I went to minecraft.net and logged in to my account. then it said I had to purchase Minecraft first before I could download it. I've purchased it and downloaded it! I think someone may have hacked my account. Screenshot: ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/HEtb4.png)


title: Can I get my Steam categories back?

text: During the Holiday sales, I logged in to Steam on a different computer (one powerful enough to actually run my games :). When I logged back in on my notebook, all of my categories except one were deleted, and all of the games except one were removed from my favourites and from the one remaining category. I re-added some of them. Later, after logging in again, I lost all my groups and favourites again. Is this behaviour common? Can I get them back, or at least back them up in the future? (I have read this, but I'm not sure it's the exact same problem. Both my computers ran Windows and I lost my categorization entirely.)


title: What does the "Weapon Damage: X%" skill statistic actually mean?

text: Some skills list "Weapon Damage: X%" as one of their stats, for instance in the second circled area in this screenshot: ![screenshot](http://i.stack.imgur.com/WCiwY.jpg) What does it mean? Does it mean every attack with the skill deals an additional percentage of the weapon I'm currently wielding? If so, do other traits of the weapon, besides damage, also apply? For instance, will a weapon which reduces the target's armor on every hit also make the skill reduce it? Will a weapon generating mana on every hit also do that when using the skill? What happens when I'm dual-wielding weapons? Should I strive to wield just one powerful weapon instead of two weaker one to maximize spell damage? And does the weapon attack speed make any difference? Should I aim for higher- damage over higher-DPS weapons if I want to maximize skill damage? Finally, the first circled part apparently shows the effect of the magic ability on this skill. But I thought the magic ability also affects every weapon's magic damage. Does this mean the magic ability modifier is actually applied twice to this skill, once directly and once indirectly via weapon damage?


title: Is Kingdom Hearts in Anyway linked to Final Fantasy?

text: My girlfriend and I have had an argument over this and I was wondering is there any aspects of Kingdom hearts that is directly copied from Final fantasy as I am sure Chokobos are used in both, the way in which the cutscenes activate are similar and the ways in which the enemies disappear is the same. I also seem to recognise some characters and character names, (Riku being one of them although the characters differ in gender between the two games.) here is a brief description of the game you are a male character called Sora and you eventually have comrades out of different Disney movies such as Donald Duck, Goofy and Tarzan. The enemies are called the heartless and your character wields a key as a weapon. My main Question again, are my observations of the similarities just and is there any other similarities between kingdom Hearts and the final fantasy series?


title: What do the skill percentages in the description of some skills mean?

text: In the tooltip for some skills, just above the detailed statistics, there are one or more icons that look like one of the attributes, and next to them some percentage, as is pointed to by the first question mark in this screenshot: ![screenshot 1](http://i.stack.imgur.com/zEOyr.jpg) What does that mean? I used to think that it means how much from the current weapon damage is transferred to the skill, but that appears to be answered by the other circled part. Some skills even list more than one of those.


title: Will a Culture Bomb take a city in an adjacent tile?

text: I understand how the basic Culture Bomb works. What I'm asking is if you own the tile adjacent to a neighboring city (other player or City State) and perform a Culture Bomb in it, will you take over that city? In the picture below, the x's are your territory, the o's are your neighbor's, and the C is your neighbor's city.               x x o o o o      x x C o o     x x(x)o o o      x x o o o      If you bomb the (x) tile to change the territory like so               x x o o o o      x x C o o     x x(x)x o o      x x x o o      will you control the city C?


title: Are there situations where Stamina or Magicka Damage is really useful?

text: On first glance these enchants seemed really great. Ideally I'd pepper a dangerous mage from afar with a +Magicka Damage bow. And then engage it safely in melee. But in practice I find that if I don't kill the enemy in a reasonably short time, I am dead anyway. Furthermore the loss in damage compared to straight health damage doesn't seem to be worth it. A 20 base damage sword with +20 Frost damage to Health and Stamina will inflict roughly 40 damage to Health per succesful blow. Whereas the same sword with +20 damage to Magicka, or +20 damage to Stamina, will really only inflict 20 damage to Health per succesful blow. Do you find these enchants useful? Am I misunderstanding the effects?


title: Good Missilebuild for SPAZ?

title: What epic gems exist in Kingdoms of Amalur?

text: When considering building a character with a high amount of blacksmithing or sagecrafting it would be helpful to know more about the potential benefits of the gems that can be incorporated into equipment. There are armor, weapon, utility and epic gems. From the names it's somewhat obvious what they are used for (ok utility isn't necessarily crystal clear). Epic gems seem to give the best buffs. What recipes exist to create epic gems and what stats do they give?


title: Can I save/resume game in Starfox 64?

text: I didn’t have a console growing up, but eventually bought a Nintendo 64 to enhance my childhood retroactively. I just got Starfox 64, and have to admit I’m puzzled. I have beaten the first few planets / asteroid belt, but every time I turn on the game, I have to start over from the beginning! What the heck? Is there no way to save a game after beating e.g. the asteroid belt and then pick it up a day later? Note: I have a memory card, but don’t have a clue how to use it.


title: Why is a second local player with an XBOX Live Silver account allowed to play online?

text: This is typically not allowed on XBL, but I noticed Dungeon Defenders somehow got around this. I can't find any information online as to whether this was done as a promotion or some agreement between Microsoft and Trendy Entertainment. I'm not talking about the second player playing as a guest under the first player's profile.


title: How does Sagecrafting work?

text: When considering creating a character with a high level of Sagecraft, I wanted to know what the potential gain was. Clearly shards are used to create gems that can be added to equipment, but how does one go from collecting shards to gaining useful bonuses? What kinds of shards exist? Are there different quality levels? What sorts of bonuses do they give? Can different types of shards be combined to create unusual gems (like cubing for a prismatic amulet in Diablo II)?

title: Why does turn order shift?

text: I've noticed during attacks turn order will shift around as shown in the top right. What causes the turn order shifts?

What makes turn order shift like that? What general factors determine turn order?


title: PS3 Controller not charging or syncing with ps3

text: The last time i played a game on my playstation 3 was in February 2014. Now, its August 2014, and my controller can't seem to sync with my PS3 Console. Whenever I connect it using the charging cord, nothing happens, and when I press the round button, it syncs with the console, but doesn't blink ( _i.e doesn't charge_ ). And as soon as I disc my charging cord with the PS3, it loses the connection. Its like a ps2 controller, whenever I connect. one light turns on but doesn't blink. I won't charge on my pc as well. I am running windows 8.1 and i tried everything i read online but nothing happened! Also tried pressing the reset button but no luck! Its been two days now.

title: Is damage reduction applied before Unity splits damage, or after?

text: There's a ring, Unity, that splits damage among all people wearing it. When does damage reduction apply for this? Let's say, for example, I've got a barbarian loaded up with armor and resists who is sitting in a molten pool that does 50,000 damage per second, but with all his damage reduction he's got 90% resistance so it drops to like 5k/sec and he pretty much ignores it. Now let's say he and a mage friend of his put Unity on. Let's say the mage only has 50% damage reduction. When Unity splits the damage, is it going to be doing damage to the mage **after** the Barbarian's reduction (so, 2.5k/second) or will it be doing it before the Barbarian's reduction (so potentially 12.5k/second)?

title: Origin of achievements

text: Achievements have become pretty standard in games (and other gamified content, like Stack Exchange) these days. However, they definitely weren’t part of “classic” gaming, in the arcade/8-bit/16-bit eras. So where did they come from? What was the first game to offer them? By “Achievement”, I’m specifically referring to multiple permanent (across- playthrough) awards which don’t directly correspond to whatever progression system the game has. High score boards have been around since the arcade days, but they only track single playthroughs. Bonuses or changes for completing the game also don’t count, because they’re directly tied to progressing to the end of the game.

title: What factors determine enemy levels or: How do enemy levels scale to the player character's?

text: When I finished Normal Mode at around Level 30 and went back to the Southern Shelf (still at Normal mode), I found that all enemies there are now very easy to kill, meaning they didn't level up (or hit a level cap). When I went to Oasis (Captain Scarlett DLC location) as a Level 36 character in True Vault Hunter Mode, I noticed that the enemies are the same level as me. What factors determine enemy levels? Specifically, I would like to know:   * Are enemies affected by what level a character accepted a mission?    * Or is it what level a character is when they first entered an area?    * How does Normal Mode, True Vault Hunter mode, and the Ultimate True Vault Hunter Mode affect enemy levels?    * Are there enemies that will scale to the player level, as the player levels up?   * Any enemy leveling differences specific to the DLC areas?  * * * EDIT:   * There is now an answer that explains how this works generally: " _In playthrough 1, outside of the DLC, there's no such thing as scaling. Enemy levels are determined solely by the area they're in and your mission._ " Can anyone expound on that, and comment or provide an answer on what are the specific enemy levels on specific areas and/or missions?    * This answer states that " _enemies do not actually "scale", or at least from what we know of..._ " and lists specifics for enemy levels on certain areas in the game (sans DLC areas). Can anyone expound on that and/or add specifics for enemy levels in the DLC missions or areas in TVHM (PT 2.0) and/or UTVHM?   * The Ultimate True Vault Hunter Mode update has just been released, can anyone provide info about enemy levels on that mode, including the DLC areas or missions?


title: Borderlands 2. Enemies too low level

text: I have been playing borderlands 2. But it seems like the places I visit locks the enemy levels at the level I am at when I come there. I can't farm the infinity gun because Doc mercy is lvl 8 when I get to him, which I think that my level was 7-8 when I first saw him. Also The Warrior is lvl 31 instead of scaling mine from 38-40. And All the bosses I have met before, is underleveled compared to me. Is there any way I can fix this? Is it maybe because I went to UVHM? Since I changed back to normal mode after realizing I had to start all over again.


title: How to scale the bosses level to mine

text: I'm a level 36, and I often farm for legendary weapons. The problem is, for example, when I did the clan wars mission (killing hodunks or zafords) the final battle I killed the hodunks. I was around level 20 then. Now when I farm for the legendary weapon he drops, he still is level 20 and drops the level 20 legendary weapon. My question is; how do I get the some of the bosses (tector, hunter hellquist, scorch, ect.) to scale to my level so I can get my level legendaries? (don't know if this matters but I have beat the game and killed the warrior many times).


title: Do bosses/loot drops scale in level?

text: > **Possible Duplicate:**   >  What factors determine enemy levels or: How do enemy levels scale to the > player character’s? I'm currently working my way through Borderlands 2, first play-through, level 25 (I know, I don't get a lot of time to play games in general, let alone a game where I need to complete an area to avoid going through it again) When I first fought 'Boom Bewm' (the twin midgets with the massive turret/gun near Liars Berg) I got really lucky and got the Orange Grenade Mod:   * **Level** : 4   * **Name** : Bonus Package   * **Damage** : 232x10   * **Fuse** : ~2 seconds (I can't remember exactly)   * **Grenade Type** : MIRV (10 Child Grenades)   * **Element** : Explosive   * **Red text** : `2x more awesome, bonus extreme!` _(Each child grenade spawns it's own set of child grenades)_ Needless to say this grenade has pretty much carried me through some sticky situations. (oh if only it was a sticky grenade, that'd make the best pun). However it's becoming less useful as time goes on, and I still haven't come across an adequate replacement. I then hit upon the brilliant idea of revisiting Boom Bewm a few times and farm another one. Except, they hadn't levelled up at all. I killed them pretty easily a couple of times and managed to find another legendary - slightly worse than mine (9 grenades instead of 10, +4 damage per grenade, longer fuse time), but still level 4. Most of the Borderlands community seems to agree that farming bosses to get the legendary you want is the way to go, but the one thing I can't seem to find out is: **Do any of the mini-bosses (and therefore, their loot drop) scale with your level?** **Note** : In Borderlands 1, I could revisit say Jakob's Cove after completing it and the enemies (and bosses) had re-scaled to my new level. **Note 2** : I'm not talking about scaling when you start a second play- through (because I'm probably not going to), and I already know that the second play-through scales to match your current level when you start.

title: How can I level up more quickly?

text: I have now had my first character at level 40 for a while and have started playing another, new, character. The problem is that progress feels awfully slow, and my "overall progress" (for the whole account) has come to a halt, since I'm not finding any more pages of training anymore. I spent nearly 25 hours on my first playthrough (I was very thorough), and don't want to do the same again, and I'm certain many others feel the same way. So;   * Are there ways to level up more quickly?    * Are there certain regions in each Act that the player should go to to farm XP?    * Is it worth skipping content (running past monsters, etc.) to do quests only for their quest XP?    * Are there any other tricks to level up more quickly?


title: Where is the best place to maximize XP per hour in Inferno?

text: > **Possible Duplicate:**   >  How can I level up more quickly? There are many questions here on Arqade about farming xp to get _ready_ for inferno difficulty; this question is not my intent. I am playing a level 60 character either solo or with a friend. In both cases, I/we are able to easily clear any Act in Inferno. I am currently running the entire Act 3 each time I play. I currently have a +25% xp gem in my helm(I know this could be higher, but this will just scale and should not effect the answer). **My current reasons for playing Act 3** :   High number of elite packs (for early 75% xp gain) - usually around 25-30 per run   High Density of normal mobs   Highest possible item level drops I am not that interested in farming loot for this question, I am simply talking about xp. I rarely pick up items unless they are lvl 63 rares/legendaries, so I only bank about once per trip. After running through the Act 3 times, I am averaging about 8-10 million xp an hour. After my above findings, the question remains: Is the best place to farm xp in inferno Act 3? Should I be playing through the entire Act, or should I be focusing on specific quest/quests of the Act, and then restarting the game? Should I be playing Act 2 or 4?

title: Which cards can affect a stealthed minion?

text: In Hearthstone, there are several cards that have stealth, which means you cannot target those minions. What puzzles me, is that some AoE cards seem to not affect some stealth cards. Did I run into a bug or is this intended and what are the combinations that affect each other? ![Screenshot of knob minion](http://i.stack.imgur.com/aD2jD.png) While the minion on the screenshot was affected by my Arcane Explosion, I ran into other minions that are not, but I don't remember them all.

title: How to start mage guild second quest

text: In ESO, you have a rather interesting (at least till now) series of quests for the mage guild (as in all other elder scrolls games actually). My problem is the following:   * I joined the guild and made the first quest (found the book, talked to shalidor, went to cheesmongors hollow, beat gutsripper and took 1 book).   * Now the guildmaster has to translate it, but it took a while already, made about 10 levels (i'm 15 now), and the second quest still doesn't start. For fighters guild for example, a guy fund me in town and told me to go to guild for further instructions. Also I already leveled up at mage guild tree by finding lore books. So... do I have to do anything? Or quest will eventually start? Note: Pls. no spoilers if possible.


title: How does Epiphany affect skills?

text: With the new expansion Reaper of Souls, Monk has a new ability 'Epiphany'. It's description is, > Have an Epiphany, increasing your Spirit Regeneration per Second by 20 and > enabling your melee attacks to instantly dash to your target for 15 seconds. However I've noticed that it changes your skills. I use 'Lashing Tail Kick' as my `1` and I've noticed that whilst Epiphany is running it essentially turns into Seven Sided Strike, and will hit enemies in the area. What other changes are made to skills whilst Epiphany is active? Or is this just Lashing Tail Kick's AoE being 'instantly dashed' to targets? The effect can be seen in this video. Watch for the player popping Epiphany and notice the top boss gets struck with a glowing yellow shadow, similar to Seven Sided Strike.

title: Why are games lagging on my laptop?

text: I have a Dell laptop with these specifications: > >     Intel B950 2.1 GHz >     4 GB RAM >     Intel HD Graphics 2000 >     Windows 8.1 >   I know these specs are low but it run games for others. I have seen people with same GFX card and playing games without any lag on **medium settings**. For example, **Fifa 14** works on this guy's laptop without any lag. **Youtube Link** He says, it works on **60-70 FPS** without FRAPS. But on my laptop, it works on only **20-30 FPS** and lags continuously **(dropping to 4-10 FPS)**. Sorry for tags, I couldn't create ones which fits for the question. It happens to every game, even **COD:MW1**. _I have updated my drivers._

title: Shotgun damage for different shotguns and ammo types

text: I want to know if the different shotguns have differing amounts of damage they do (and if they vary at range). I also would like to know if the different ammo types cause relatively different damage levels for different shot guns. For example, does a USAS slug round cause less/more damage than a DAO slug round? Also, if there are differences, has anyone actually quantified those differences? Does anyone have information on this?

text: When I bring a basket of fruits to Dr. Shrunk to teach me an emotion/animation, he makes a comment that he will have to teach me a "really good joke" that day compensate me for the many fruits that I brought. I am curious to know if there is actually a game mechanic which restricts which emotions can be taught, or if that conversation is just a bit of fluff. Are there any emotions that cannot be taught by giving Dr. Shrunk a single fruit, or can they all be unlocked by bringing him a single fruit each day?

title: Dual voice output for PS4

text: I don't have a PS4 (but I am planning on getting one sometime soon). I've been looking for the answer to this for a while but I haven't been able to find a definite answer. On the Xbox 360 (and probably Xbox One too, unsure about this), there is an option where you can output the audio from voice chat from other players to your headset, TV, or both simultaneously. Is there an option like this on the PS4? I know that the PS3 doesn't have this option at all, but I'm wondering if Sony implemented this feature for this gen.


title: How can I find out the rarest Steam achievement?

text: Having completed the most difficult achievements for a couple of games, I started wondering how difficult the worst achievements can be. One well- defined measure for difficulty of an achievement is its rareness. Sadly, I don't know how to find global achievement stats for all Steam games. What I want to know is: > What is the most rare single player achievement on Steam, in terms of > >   * individual players? >   * percentage of players? > As any answer would eventually become outdated, **I'm not asking that question** per se. Instead, I would like to know how the rarest achievements can be found. A good answer, then, depicts a method for finding the rarest achievements on Steam.

title: In theory, what is the maximum practical level for skills and attributes in Oblivion?

text: Given free use of the console to increase skills and attributes and objects/other effects held, used, obtained or invoked (e.g. a Fortify Attribute from a spell or birthsign) is there a maximum level that is practically used in-game for skills or attributes? In this context I mean "practically" to mean "affects the game", in terms of beyond the number displayed on the screen. As far as I understand it skills can be set up an absolute maximum of 100 and nothing will make it higher (in terms of gameplay), whilst attributes can go over 100 although I don't know if it will be practically useful in the game. I suppose one way to phrase my question would be "what is the highest the numbers can go on the screen" combined with "what is the best effective possible character the game can support, judged by skill/attribute stats alone"

title: Efficient design for a self regulating villager breeder?

text: I'm playing on a SMP server and would like to begin a villager trading industry. I've looked at lots of designs for villager breeders that can be started easily (no nearby villages, so I'll have to cure zombies) but have been unable to find one that shuts off after a certain threshold of villagers is reached. If possible, I would like it to be fully automatic, but minimal interaction is ok. Basically, the goal is to have a "pool" of villagers that I can draw from at any time, ensuring that when I go through many in short succession I don't have to wait for breeding. To prevent excessive lag, this "pool" should be kept fairly small (20-40) at all times.

title: Can I turn a profit by tainting the galaxy's medicine supply?

text: I'm getting ready to do my obligatory mirror run of KOTOR on the darker side of the Force, and a thought occurs to me: I understand that if, when dealing with the Firaxis Shark on Manaan, if I choose to kill it by introducing a new toxin to the rift, I'll taint the Kolto supply for the galaxy, resulting in a widespread shortage. More to the point, this causes the _price of medpacs_ at vendors through the game to increase, to reflect this 'shortsighted' decision. Thing is, the game provides more medpacs than I can possibly use. Especially if I harass Jolee enough aboard the Ebon Hawk. So I usually end up selling most of them. If I _hold_ my medpacs until _after_ finishing Manaan, will the price at which I can sell then to a vendor rise as well? Can I engage in a little casual profiteering from my callous war crimes?

title: Batman Arkham City third hostage puzzle

text: I'm at the third hostage's location. The first parts of the puzzle were quite easy, but now I'm at the part where I need to use the Electrical Charger somehow (since there are three electromagnets). I tried shooting the magnets in several combinations and nothing seems to happen. After messing around for a few minutes I decided to look the puzzle up on the internet. I found this guide: http://guides.gamepressure.com/batmanarkhamcity/guide.asp?ID=12645 It states (at the 11th row of images) > Prepare the Electrical Charge, as you will be using it to solve this puzzle. > Start off by shooting at the left electromagnet #1 to move the steel > platform left #2. When I do that the steel box doesn't move to the left... Am I missing something here? Maybe something PS3 related?

title: Do I definitely lose science when transmitting reports by antenna?

text: In the latest patch (0.22), which introduces career mode, we can do science. Then the way to recover the data collected is either sending it by antenna, or landing the ship back on Kerbin to retrieve it. However, only a percentage of the science is recovered when transmitting over antenna. The experiment can be repeated later on, but the science value decreases each time, quickly reaching zero. My question is : when I do an experiment for the first time and transmit it with 40% efficiency, are the remaining 60% lost forever ? Let's say I have an experiment that brings in 10 science the first time, and 4 the second time. If I remote-transmit at 40% efficiency the data the first time, and land the ship the second time, I'd get 10*0.4 + 4 = 8 science, while if I land the ship both times, it'd bring 14 science. Would that be 6 science definitely lost to me ?

title: Hostile mobs not spawning in Minecraft 1.7.4 single player

text: I've spent almost 10 hours in single player putting together a mob grinder and lighting up nearby caves. Until very recently the mob grinder was working perfectly - mobs would spawn and get sucked into the kill mechanism. During the build I have been switching between "Peaceful" and "Hard" settings to let me build in peace. Very recently the hostile mobs stopped spawning - I've got the setting on "Hard", have started and stopped the game, switched between Peaceful/Hard, and gone on long expeditions both overland and underground. I have not seen or heard any hostile mobs but have come across neutral mobs (even chickens deep underground). Has anyone experienced this? I've looked at this question: No hostile mobs spawning in minecraft - but it seems to only apply to multi-player/ Minecraft servers rather than single player. Thanks in advance for any advice.

I hit a wall in in the Master Mode, and can't beat any more levels beyond around level J. Will I be able to unlock Expert mode just by playing songs in the normal mode of playing, or do I have to beat things in Master Mode or Battle Mode?


title: Why are my AI enemies surrendering all the time?

text: I recently started to play AoE2 again and tried to play some random maps against AI opponents. I set the difficulty to "Moderate" (3 of 5) and started the game. But every time after exactly 5:01 min of play time, my enemies surrender and I win the game... I know that I'm not an uber pro at playing AoE2 so I don't think I can play on difficulty 4 or even 5, so I'd like to play on "Moderate", but I can't because my enemies surrender after exactly 5 minutes. What is going on here? **Update:**   For all who are interested, this is fixed in the Steam version of AoE2HD. I played on difficulties 2/5 and 3/5 and my enemies did not surrender.

No message from the Followers ever hit though, it's been several more ingame days and still no message. Anybody know why it won't play? As it is, I can ONLY go to Lorenzo to get the Brotherhood +8DT armor for him, which I don't want. Is there a way to fix this without using Console commands, or will I have to reset the quest entirely? Note: I had gone through REPCON HQ a while before this and picked up the stuff from the broherhood paladins there. Could that have messed that up the quest? It read it as me already having gone there?


title: How does value affect the gain of smithing experience?

text: As of Skyrim's 1.5 patch, you get differing values for smithing items in part due to their value.

title: How does dueling work in Red Dead Redemption?

text: I missed the instructions during my first duel, but I didn't really worry about it since I just shot a lot at the guy's head, and he died. Many duels went the same way...I could shoot the opponent easily. But during tougher duels, that doesn't work. It seems like you have to have your meter on the right end up higher than your opponents meter...but it's not clear to me exactly how the meter works. And the one bit of advice I remember the game giving me, to "not draw too quickly, because my shots would be inaccurate" or something, doesn't seem to make any sense, since I can manually control where the shots go. What is the secret to a successful duel?


title: Borderlands 2 crashing on startup

text: I've been experiencing a crash on startup with my copy of Borderlands 2 through Steam. It all started when I had to forcibly restart my computer while Borderlands 2 was open (note: the restart was required by a non-game related issue). When attempting to launch the game again, I got a fatal error with a Windows AppCrash message and a stack trace in the image below. I've also got some memory dump files I can post if someone thinks they'd be useful.   * Windows 7 x64   * Sandy Bridge 2500K   * 2GB Radeon 6950 **Things I've Tried**   * Verifying Borderlands 2's cache   * Uninstalling and reinstalling Borderlands 2   * Uninstalling Borderlands 2, clearing all registry entries containing `Borderlands`, deleting `%USERPROFILE%\Documents\My Games\Borderlands 2`, uninstalling Steam, reinstalling Steam, reinstalling borderlands.   * Check all audio drivers for updates   * Uninstall and reinstall all audio device drivers At this point, I'm worried my only course of action will be to reinstall Windows, which I'm not incredibly keen on. I've also emailed 2K and Gearbox support, but in the meantime I'm hoping someone has seen this same problem and found a less drastic solution than reinstalling Windows. ![AK::SoundEngine::StopOutputCapture\(\) AK::MemoryMgr::GetPoolName\(\) AK::MemoryMgr::SetMonitoring\(\) CreateAudioInputSourceParams\(\) BaseThreadInitThunk\(\) RtInitializeExceptionChain\(\) \(filename not found\)](http://i.stack.imgur.com/1zCVw.png)

title: Got stuck in Chaos Sanctuary, now what do I do?

text: This is the N-th time I've tried to beat Diablo 2, and it's happening all over again. I'm a Paladin at lvl 28, ripped through the game without much difficulty until Chaos Sanctuary. As soon as I release the 5th seal there, a bunch of lightning-fast Venom Lords spawn and kill me with one-two hits (an my merc along with me). I opened a portal beforehand so I just grabbed a few spare items from my chest and when I returned to just loot my corpse real quick, portal back and re-supply, I was killed again - in one hit. Now, why does this happen and what am I supposed to do now (portal gone, butt- naked and no decent stuff in pandemonium fortress' shops)?


title: Is there a way to share vision with opponent in Starcraft 2?

text: There are times that I would like to be able to share vision with my opponents when playing Starcraft 2. This was possible in the original Starcraft, but I can't find a way in Starcraft 2. Situations in which I would want to share vision include:   * Playing melee games vs friends of much lesser ability. Sharing vision with them gives them an advantage that helps to even the playing field. It makes the game more challenging for myself, it negates surprise as a viable strategy and forces me to rely on other factors to win the game.   * FFA vs friends, where those that have lost (but still have at least one remaining building to avoid being booted out of the game and into the score screen). Those players that have lost may want vision so that they can enjoy the remainder of the match.  Is this possible with standard melee maps?

title: Why is co-op more popular than team-based multiplayer?

text: I've noticed that the vast majority of servers are co-op rather than team- based multiplayer. This seems to be skewed in comparison to most other first- person shooter online games, which would have the majority of the servers running a team-based multiplayer configuration (Assault, Capture the Flag, Team Deathmatch, etc.).

text: I'm on the 3rd disc in FFVII, and I'm at the point where I'd like to kill the Ultimate Weapon to unlock the Ruby Weapon. I already fought the Ultimate Weapon at the crater near Junon, and fought it a second time at the North Crater. But since then, I haven't been able to find it--recently, at least. (I flew around in the Highwind for about 5 minutes, found it, fought it at Gongaga Village, decided to go into Sunken Gelnika, died there and forgot to save...moral of the story is to save often.) So is there a pattern that the Ultimate Weapon flies in? Or can it be found easily flying around certain continents/areas? Or am I just screwed and have to search for it over the entire world map?

But because it is so big, there is no way for me to download the game. What i would usually do is download the game and then cut and paste it to my other drive and make a symlink. But because there is no way for me to download the game I can't do that. Is there a way for me to trick steam into thinking that it is installing/downloading the game on my ssd while it is actually doing that to the other drive?


title: Games on SSD with Steam

text: As I want to save as much space on my main SSD for games, to optimize performance for none Steam games. I would love to have these games on another drive. **Is it possible to install Steam games on my external SSD, plug and un-plug it for whenever I want to play these Steam games?**


title: How do I reduce mouse sensitivity in Minecraft?

text: Whenever I set my priority to high or above normal my mouse goes crazy. Every time I want to turn to the right or left a little bit with the mouse, it makes me do a 360. And when I try to engage in pvp, I always die because when they get behind me I spin in circles trying to simply face them. This is really making me tired of Minecraft and I need a solution, fast! I haven't really tried finding a solution because none worked. I know its not my mouse because I tried the mouse on my friend's computer and it worked just fine.


title: How to enable the dota2 ingame guides

text: I've recently subscribed to a dota2 guide via the steam workshop, but nothing has changed so far in the game. Are the guides perhaps something that only show up in the test build or do I need to activate some setting? Guide in question: http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=128795071


title: Can I alter just the dual-wielding controls?

text: In a comment on Is it possible to use a shield in one hand and magic in the other?, switching the controls for left arm to left mouse button (and right arm to right mouse button) was mentioned. I think this makes the dual-wielding system much more intuitive - however, I desperately don't want to have to left click to block and right click to attack (or right click to shoot my bow, left click to melee with it, etc). I didn't see anything in the settings to alter mappings for dual wielding only - is there any way to do this?


title: Falion won't help me cure my vampirism

text: Trying to cure my vampirism, after loading a save AGES ago, and doing the quest to cure it. I get to Falions house, and it's locked. (These events in this paragraph happened the first time) I tried getting in (successfully) into Falions house and of course, he wants me out. After being able to persuade the guard to let me go, being the Thane, I was able to properly talk to him and buy the gem. The problem was, everyone tried to kill me and I was too weak with the disease. (Second time) Tried to break in, unsuccessful. Couldn't make him talk to me this time. How do you properly talk to him? I tried waiting, didn't work.


title: What equipment should I have to kill the Eye of Cthulhu?

text: I just manually summoned the Eye of Cthulhu, going into battle with copper armour, tungsten broadsword, gold bow, jester arrows and plenty of lesser healing potions. I came rather close to death but I managed to stay alive. However, the Eye took off when I had his health down to ~1700. I'm assuming this means you only have a few minutes to finish it off after a certain point. Is there any equipment I'm missing to help kill the Eye faster and to help my survivability? If it's relevant, my current life is 120.

title: how to get back to the main story in gta v and how to get back to Franklin's?

text: So, I'm playing video games much more often now than I used to and made some GTA progress. I'm past the car chase part where you rescue the boat. I've done a couple of side missions with Michael the fitness girl and the race with Franklin and the other guys. I can't figure out how to get back to the main story. I skipped the racing mission eventually because I couldn't ever complete it. But I have my game saved. I can't get back up to the main story no matter what I do. I'm saved in Michael's house. Also, I used to have Franklin's house saved on the map but I don't anymore. Why is that and how do I get instructions back to Franklin's house? By way of setting the waypoint on my map, I can only go back to Michael's. I mean specifically by waypoint on the map. Otherwise I can go wherever and probably even to Franklin's if I knew where that was. Should I just go to where it shows the house? I haven't edited any settings.


title: Is there a way to bind items to the number keys in Skyrim?

text: I'm less than impressed with the favorites menu for quick swapping spells in the middle of a fight. Is there anyway I can bind them to the number pad on the keyboard?
