title: You are getting tired, you should find a parking place to rest

text: When doing long trips, you will eventually start getting 'tired' in game. This is shown to you by a message that takes up your GPS space saying "You are getting tired. You shold find a parking place to rest". I have noticed that the screen will occasionally start blacking out but I have always rested before it got too bad. Once this message starts showing, how long can you keep driving until you fall asleep? Do you actually fall asleep at all?


title: Map glitched, can't scroll/zoom in Far Cry 3

text: I'm having a problem in FC3 where when I open the map it suddenly gets stuck like it doesn't know where the center of it is, and it only allows me to scroll on the left side of the map but not towards it. Currently uploading a video of this glitch in action, it will be at: I'm currently using v1.04 of the game, but this has been happening to me since v1.02 Any help would be appreciated, thanks!


title: Why do I keep getting caught speeding?

text: I am playing Euro Truck Simulator 2 and driving around doing the Quick Jobs because I've only just started and don't have enough money to purchase my own truck. As it is a simulator there are speed limits on all of the roads and speed cameras placed. Many times I have been in a road marked as national speed limit zone indicated by a white circle with a black line through it but I've been given a speeding ticket for doing 55mph edit: as an additional example, I just got a speeding ticket on the motorway for doing 55mph as well! What am I doing wrong?


title: Where are all the recruitment agents?

title: What's the difference between downloadable games on XBLA and PSN?

text: I've recently found myself in possession of both an Xbox 360 and PS3, and in addition to having to having to choose between the platforms for normal console releases (How do I choose between the console and PC versions of a game?, Does a website exist that compares the versions of the same game on different platforms?), I recently found myself having to decide whether to buy a game on PSN or XBLA (neither of which I've really used previously). So what are the main differences between playing downloadable games from PSN and XBLA? NOTE I'm not asking about:   * Differences between specific games, unless it's a common trend like PS3 retail games consistently having better textures.   * Differences between game availability—I'm aware most games tend to only be released on one XBLA or PSN and that PSN generally has fewer such games, but this question is strictly about the games that do get released on both.


Boone and I have been murdering our way through the Mojave Wasteland for the last ingame month or so, and we're very happy together. However, I've just reached Trading Post 188 and encountered Veronica, who claims to wish to join my quest. I know that there's a room in the Lucky 38 where companions go if dismissed, but I haven't been to the Strip yet, and I'm worried about what will happen to my murder buddy if I leave him alone in the wastes. **Where do companions go when dismissed in Fallout: New Vegas?**

title: Low sound problems

text: I've been looking 30-60min different links from Google to fix my problem, and still not succeeded.   1. I am using Windows XP (with Service Pack III)   2. I am using VIA Unknown @ nVIDIA MCP61 - High Definition Audio Controller.   3. The speakers I am using have a text on them: "Platinum UBL Series" (did a quick check in Google and didn't found anything useful) One link talked about 5.1. I tried to set it on my speakers, but it jumps off it, so I believe either my speakers or my sound card cannot use that option. One link talked about setting the [AudioMenu] fAudioMasterVolume in Skyrim_Default. What number I wanna put on it, the sound is always as low as always. I hope there could be found a fix, which doesn't fit in "setting up another operating system" or "buying a new sound card or speakers". Of course I could just raise up my speaker volume, but any other sound outside from Skyrim would put me go "boom head explosion", if you know what I mean.


title: Attacking while moving over enemies with Carriers?

text: Is it possible to order a carrier to move over enemy units, while attacking them, but without stopping to attack ? This is useful if you want to make sure you carrier moves to safety or to the enemy's mineral line, but don't want to use the move command because, well, the interceptors seem to be able to attack while the carrier is attack-moving.


title: Xbox 360 restarts when switching TV Inputs (HDMI)

text: This has bothered me for some time. My Xbox is hooked up to my TV through an HDMI cable. Whenever I switch inputs (whether to another HDMI input or component) and then switch back to the Xbox, the Xbox restarts. This makes it impossible to flip back and forth between a TV show and the Xbox for example. Is this normal? If not, are there any workarounds? **What I've Tried**     * I have already tried different HDMI ports on the TV itself.   * When hooked up to the TV, other HDMI devices don't exhibit this behavior (PS3 for example) **What I Haven't Tried Yet**   * I could try a different cable but I'd have to borrow it... Would a cable defect explain this?


title: What is that square bomb you plant on doors before breaching into a room and going into bullet time?

text: Before you and your comrades breach into a room to save a prisoner and enter bullet time to kill off some guards, you will almost-always place a large, flat, square bomb on the door. Q1: What is that large, flat, square bomb called? Q2: Unlike C4, why can you stand right in front of & beside the square bomb without taking any damage? The people on the other side (which is blocked by a door) seems to be in great shock, but not you...

title: Should I play Portal before Portal 2?

text: There is a lot of noise around Portal 2 these days. I've looked at several videos and I'm interested in buying it.   The "problem" (you'll tell me if it's one or not) is that I never played Portal, the first game of the series.   So my question is simple, should I play Portal before play to Portal 2 because:   * The story is such that you'd better play the first game first to understand the whole plot.   * Some concepts are explained in the first game and not repeated in the second one, which would make me miss some little things.   * Any other things you might think of.


title: Other than being ethically correct, what are the benefits of playing with original game CDs?

text: Guys please don't take me in the wrong sense. I am not advocating for piracy. In fact I want to know about the advantages of playing with original game CDs so that I can attract gamers in my region, in India, to join my server. Please note that this is not a localized issue again, as piracy is a problem everywhere and this community being against piracy, I expect to get some good answers/ideas so as to complete my market analysis regarding this. **My own experience and some ideas**   I would tell a few things from my own experience. Piracy is very common here in India. To be honest, when we were in college, we used to play lots of games in multiplayer, all with pirated copies, on our college LANs. And after we passed out, I hardly found any friends who had the enthusiasm to play. So, I was left alone, and then I tried to join the public dedicated servers (those which appear in the list while playing - in the game's interface) but I got kicked out because I was having a pirated copy. Then I started looking for cracked servers. I found a few but they would be either always empty or too far so high in ping etc. So, I decided to purchase an original CD but now the problem of high ping frustrated me. You may check my question for further details. I was not aware of the problem of absence of dedicated servers around my region because I had never played with original CD before*** _(See my point regarding this fact below)_. Then I decided to do something about this. Please check this question for more details. But I am not yet sure if I will be able to attract enough passionate gamers to make my local server a self-sustainable one. So, I want to make sure there are indeed good benefits of spending some money to purchase the original CDs and this would be good enough to attract gamers. Please note that there are passionate gamers everywhere. There might be lot of gamers around me but they might be having their network of friends and might be playing with pirated copies of the game. But, can I make this more attractive and target these passionate gamers. _I was not aware of the problem of absence of dedicated servers around my region because I had never played with original CD before_ *** I guess this lack of knowledge was the main reason I purchased the original CD. But how many around me would be unaware of that. In case, many unaware enthusiast gamers have done this, then they can be my target to join my server. What do you say guys?


title: Predictability Of Minecraft Seeds

text: In a nutshell, is there anyway to predict what kind of landscape a certain seed will generate? I've done some research and seems like the answer is no, but is there some sort of general guideline, like seeds with just letters results in largely desert landscapes or that negative numbers as seeds result in large tundra biomes. Thank You!

title: How can I avoid fish/deer extinction?

text: I've built some hunting lodges and I'm looking at constructing another nearby. How can I know how much is too much for the local deer population? So far, I've decided on the simple guideline that no two hunting lodges should overlap, but four hunters/lodge is perfectly safe, but I've not actually found any evidence to suggest that this is safe. I'm not looking to fish yet but I will be, so I'd also like to know the same thing for fish- how can I know how much is sustainable?

What damage sources are possible to block?      * Can you block Melee and physical projectiles? (I presume yes)     * Can you block Elemental projectiles?     * Can you block Physical AoE attack?     * Can you block Elemental AoE attacks?     * Can you block DoT ticks? (molten, desecrator etc)

title: How did most people come to be on Pandora?

text: Playing Borderlands 2 for a while, I've noticed something odd. There are clearly two human factions, one, the bandits, are uncivilized, wild, and will do anything for some "fresh meat". The other faction, the humans, live in Sanctuary, and they are normal people, considering the circumstances. What I'm curious about is where most of these humans came from? Were they orginially in Pandora? In Borderlands 1, there were very few "real humans", besides the denizens of T-Bone Junction, New Haven, and some I have forgotten. In Borderlands 2, the only real humans (besides a handful of NPCs) are located in Sanctuary, Liar's Berg, and a few other places. The game does allude to some humans arriving on Pandora to work (ie, Jakobs Cove in Borderlands 1, where they turned into zombies under Dr. Ned (not Zed!)) Basically, where did most of these humans come from? Job prospects? Born on Pandora itself?


title: How does Minecraft 1.8 Handle Saves Generated in Previous Versions?

text: The newest version of Minecraft has a modified terrain generation system. Not only does this add new terrain features, but it fundamentally changes generation. For this reason, seeds used in previous version produce radically different results from the same seeds in the new version. Because save files contain all previously-rendered chunks, it is my understanding that 1.7.3 maps will work in 1.8, and simply not have some of the new features. However, what happens when I move into areas of the map I haven't explored? Will it generate new chunks the 1.8 way, creating mis- matched boundaries? Or will it use the 1.7.3 terrain generator?

When what to our wondering eyes should appear,   but a couple of thugs, wearing blastmaster gear!   Though we killed them, the battle was needlessly tough,   And we realized we needed lethaler stuff. So we entered the store and a Speech check we passed   and Mick's special weaponry was ours at last.   But then when I asked for the regular kind   the stuff was the same! No stairway! Denied! "What gives!?" I exclaimed as I looked through the FAQ   **"Does Mick's special stuff replace the regular rack?   Or is there some difference that I didn't note?**   I'll ask on Arqade! They can help me, I hope!"


title: Which dragon for which race?

text: So the update has added in a race track where you can pay 50,000 (so far) to enter your dragon and then race it. Unlike most things in Dragonvale this is an interactive race and dragon selection has a large impact upon the outcome as the dragons naturally move faster in the environments they are attuned to and move slower in ones that are their opposites. What I am after is a list of the race tracks and their elements. I can guess at some of them but some times I am very far off (I thought shimmering was ice, instead it was lightning for example).

title: One Move Controller for 2 players?

text: Can you play some games like bowling and Sports Champion on ps3 with 1 controller for 2 people by passing the move controller around? **UPDATE**      After buying Brunswick Pro Bolwing myself, i learned that it is ONLY pass-and- play. You cannot use more than one controller. In addition, and this is completely off topic, the game is horrible. Not at all realistic, and I know because I'm a highly active league bowler for the past 5 years with averages ranging from 190 or higher. Haven't checked High Velocity yet, but I will comment here when I do. I also have purchased Sports Champion. Some games are pass-and-play, some are not. Basically any sport were you take turns is pass-and-play, all others require 2 controllers. I.E.:      Disc Golf: Pass-and-Play   Table Tennis: 1 Controller Per Person


title: Where does Bastion store its configuration/settings?

text: I just picked up Bastion on Steam and ran into a small problem. By default, the game was running at my monitor's native resolution of 2560x1440, but I went to the in-game options menu and selected a different resolution by mistake. The problem is, the list of available resolutions _doesn't have a scrollbar_ , so now I can't change it back! The highest resolution I see in the list is 1920x1200. Since I just purchased the game I don't have any saved games to worry about, so I just want to wipe any settings/config files and start from the defaults. Where does Bastion keep its settings, or more importantly, **how can I reset the resolution**?

text: I've recently started playing Demon's Souls, and I was wondering what use the fog barriers served. There aren't any prerequisites to go through them; you only have to hit X to "Enter Fog" and the barrier then disappears. You can freely run back the way you came, so it doesn't seem to be a one-way gate that blocks you from exploring earlier areas of the level. Is there some purpose I'm missing or that is explained later in the game? Does it trigger a save? I'm clueless here.

I did contact Sega and all they had to say was that there are trying to update for iOS 5 as fast as they can.

text: On Raptr, can I manually track multiple games at once or will it only manually track one at a time? If manually tracking multiple games at once is not possible, which one will be tracked - the first one, or the latest one that I set up for manual tracking? Will manual tracking stop if I play another game while the manual tracker is "running"?

text: Is there an in-game way to find out which provinces are owned by another (enemy) country? (I don't want to resort to the console.) As background, I'm playing as the Ottomans. Byzantium has re-emerged in Cyprus. Cyprus is their capital, and I thought Cyprus was their only province. I now occupy Cyprus, but cannot fully annex Byzantium. I presume they control another province, but I don't know which one. I want to find out so that I can send my army there.

I tried "moveto player", but it didn't work. I tried resurrecting him before doing that, but he's stone-dead. "tcl" doesn't seem to do anything. Why I want to move his body is because I want to use it as a (temporary) storage container on the other side of the room. Is there a way to separate him from the object or is chair-head his final form?

title: Can command blocks teleport the a person closest to a set of coords instead of the command block itself?

text: I'm trying to build a teleport system in Minecraft, but the command blocks that have the teleport command (/tp @p x y z) are far away from the pressure plate I use to activate it. I use this world with other people, so I'm worried that other people might be closer to the command blocks than I am, and they will accidentally get teleported. Is there any way to make it so the command blocks teleport the closest person to a certain set of coordinates instead of the command block itself? Is that even possible?

title: Extend the fire propagation limit in Far Cry 2?

text: For a game that boasts the "most realistic fire" ever in a video-game ( _at least when it came out, not too sure about more recent developments)_ Far Cry 2's fire seems to die out way before a real fire would, especially in the dry savannah's of a war-torn African country. They should spread like **_wildfire_**. Literally. Obviously this is more of a limit imposed by the (most likely) taxing propagation algorithms, and the added rendering of those high-def textures. **But is there a way to tweak the limit of fire spread?** Obviously not in- game, but perhaps a config file or even a mod that increases how far a fire spreads before dying out?


title: Skins that affect game mechanics

text: I was under the impression that all skins are only related to appearance, but came across this mention of Kog'Maw's Lion Dance which actually modifies the skill behaviour. Does this affect anything besides the visuals (as in damage, proc effects, projectile speed etc.), and if so which other skins affect the actual gameplay? There is also a post on skins with sunglasses interact with Leona's ability, are there other such hidden factors that are common across skins? (say, frostfire skins resist more ice damage or something) A generic way to easily identify these skins when browsing champions on the LoL site would also be very helpful.

title: How does the XP system work in Borderlands 2

text: I have been playing Borderlands 2 for the last couple of weeks now, but I still do not know how the XP system works. I try to Google for some information but I only find XP glitch information. I do not know why people want to do that. Is there a list of enemies with the amount of XP they drop, that would be nice to know. Also I noticed that the amount of XP you get depend on the level gap between you and the enemy, there must be some calculations on that. The **main thing I want to know** is this:   * Do you gain more XP depending on the method used? (gun type / grenade / element)   * Do you gain more XP from a critical kill?   * If one of these above apply to enemies, do they also apply to bosses?


title: What are the spawn points for the "I Like My Monsters Rare" quest?

(E.g., pink boroks in first valley of Adorton Station, albino skags with Claptrap's urine quest.) They aren't listed in the wiki. Where are the best places to find each of these?


title: How do I create villages?

text: I would like to create a village. Apparently this is possible as of Minecraft 1.4.2, so how do I do it?


title: Free buildings that I already have?

text: I've wondered this for a while and never found a satisfactory answer. Free buildings, of course, are free - no build time, no build cost, no maintenance. However, what happens if the city in question already has said free building? Specifically, the CN Tower is available MUCH later than the Broadcast Tower. When I finish my CN tower, do all the Broadcast Towers I've already built revert to their free, no-maintenance versions? Or would I have to refrain from building ANY Broadcast Towers until near-endgame in order to maximize my benefit from this particular wonder? The same question applies to other "free building" effects - Great Library (Library), Hubble Space Telescope (Spaceship Factory), Legalism (Monument), completed Tradition culture track (Aqueduct)...


title: Why does my Pole Position 2 Cart play Qbert?

text: A guy I work with just gave me his Atari 2600 and a bunch of games, I hooked it up and thought what should be the first game I try (after 5 hours of playing Destiny) so I popped in Pole Position I figured of all the games in the box this one would show off what the 2600 could really do... Power ON... then Q-Bert...what the heck? TL:DR My Pole Position 2 Cart plays Qbert ...


title: Does dying count as tripping?

text: In **Objectives** that need you to go a certain distance without tripping (in my case 5,000 metres), does dying and then being resurrected (through **gems** ) count as tripping? I say this because I **resurrected** and completed 5,000 metres, to my knowledge, _without tripping_ , but did not get the +1 Multiplier.


title: Does Torturous Grounds prevent Cull the Weak

text: Cull the Weak increased damaged on slowed enemies, but Torturous Grounds causes the first two seconds of Caltrops to be an immobilize effect. Does this override the slow for the first two seconds and thus not grant the extra damage?


title: Does the damage bonus from Disruption affect itself?

text: My Disruption rune says "Targets hit by Arcane Torrent become Disrupted for 6 seconds, causing them to take 15% additional damage from any attacks that deal Arcane damage." Does this bonus include subsequent hits of Arcane Torrent? I find this skill very impractical to use unless I'm in a spot where I can sit down and hold the button down (it takes too long for the first projectile to hit) so this greatly interests me.


title: How to solve 5-4?

text: What I do is, all while holding the running button:   * Run off the platform and jump   * Jump then hold jump for a little longer to climb that extra height   * Jump off the wall onto the left.   * Jump off the wall onto the right.   * Reach slightly above the first repulser   * Reach slightly above the second repulser   * End up on the wall below Bandage Girl. ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/PvUAT.jpg) From there I'm stuck. If I try to jump back on the second repulser, I don't gain enough altitude to reach the ledge. Am I screwing up with the double-repulser jump? Am I supposed to end up on that wall? I could try using Commander Video's longer jumping capabilities, but with him I can't clear the second repulser jump, as the first doesn't gain him enough height. The other character I have is Headcrab, but it doesn't seem to be particularly useful for anything. The A+ time is 13.5 and by the time I reach the opposite wall 6.5 seconds have elapsed, so I guess I'm not supposed to reach that ledge straight away after all. I still can't manage to pull this off however.


title: What is going on with these pistons?

text: I was messing around with pistons today, and I cam across this weird senario whhere they are not working as expected. I took some screenshots, they are Here and are in order. I have three pistons on top of each other (A, B and C) with A on top. I have a redstone repeater aiming at a wood block that is next to A               .RXA     XXXB     XXXC      Where X is wood, . is wire and R is a redstone repeater.   * Starting from off, if I turn power on at A, only A goes out.   * If I then turn on power to C, B and C go out.   * If I remove power to C, only C retracts.   * Once I remove power to A, A and B retract. If I toggle power the other way:   * If I turn power on to C, then C goes out.   * If I turn power on to A, only A goes out, not B.   * If I remove power to C, then C goes in and B goes out. This is madness.   * If I remove power to A then A and B retract. This is really odd behavior. Can someone explain the logic behind it so I can work around it?


title: Mechanics of Invasion

text: Today I've been invaded for the first time and I kept being invaded for quite some time after that, in succession. In the beginning only one invader came and he was killed. Another one came and I killed him too. The third time two invaders came and I died. At this point I thought no one would come anymore but I was wrong. The fourth time two invader came and I managed to kill them both. The fifth time a single invader was sent back with his ass kicked. At this point I burned a human effigy because I wanted to fight the boss of the area. This made me wonder why I was never invaded before and out of the blue an horde of invaders came to my world.   At that point I've never invaded anyone. Another weird thing is that even tho I'm in the "Way of Blue" covenant and wearing the ring I was never helped. Do I have to do something (other than what I did already) in order to summon a blue ghost? Do the blue sentinels need to just wear the ring in order to be automatically summoned or they need to use the blue orb? Does the area I'm in affects invasion/help (ie: blue sentinels can be summoned even if we actually are in two different areas from the game?) My question is: what's the mechanic of invasion? Is there something I can do to lower/increment the change to be invaded? How can I summon blue ghost if I'm invaded? It may seems a lot of questions but they are all related to the same topic: How does the invasion system work?

title: How do attribute/stat increases scale after level 60 (Paragon levels)?

text: > **Possible Duplicate:**   >  How are attributes allocated? > Every Paragon level will reward you with: **Core stats such as Strength, > Dexterity, Intelligence, and Vitality in amounts similar to what you’d gain > from a normal level** ; 3% Magic Find and 3% Gold Find1 I can't find a decent explanation on how these core stats scale for each level. Exactly how much does each stat change with every successive Paragon level? Are the gains more significant after a certain point, or are gains linear with Paragon level?


title: What is the exact formula for calculating total vitality? Please include charlevel and paragon level

text: > **Possible Duplicate:**   >  How are attributes allocated? The best answer that I can find is lacking a few specifics: Percentage life vs vitality? Given I'm concerned only with total vitality, rather than the tradeoffs %Life and Vit, I've opened a new question. Namely, is a constant in the previous question that is not explained, that I assume are a function of character level. The previous page does also not account for paragon levels. For reference, the answered formula should use the following parameters to give a total vitality of `1218`. `1023` Vit from gear, level `34` paragon, level `60` barbarian, `10` % Life increase. Using the referenced formula I've added a term for 2 vit per level of paragon.               Total Vit = (127 + GearVitality + 2 * ParagonLvl)


title: Diablo III: Leveling System

text: > **Possible Duplicate:**   >  How are attributes allocated? I leveled a Wizard from LVL 4 to LVL 6, my stats changed as follows ("naked" Charakter, no items/weapons/armong etc. attached): LVL 4 Strength=11 Dexterity=11 Intelligence=19 Vitality=17 LVL 5 Strength=12 Dexterity=12 Intelligence=22 Vitality=17 LVL 6 Strength=13 Dexterity=13 Intelligence=25 Vitality=19 I know it's just three levels but what it looks like to me is that every level the stats increase as follows (Not sure how this scales in the higher levels): Strength +1 Dexterity +1 Intelligence +3 Vitality +2 It looks to me, like the stats increases follow a linear curve - or am I mistaken and this changes towards later level (through a level-related variant maybe) ? **EDIT** The function I came up with would be (using the Wizard as an example): Strength: startingValue + level * 1 This would mean the starting value of Strength for a Wizard should be 8 however if you try level 6 by using the above formula: 8 + 6 * 1 = 14 But on LVL 6 the Wizard has Strength = 13 - which makes me wonder, if there is some kind of variant? Something like: starting Value + level * 1 * Variant

title: How can I grab a teammate's attention?

text: In 2vs2 game, you often need assistance from teammates such as: asking for minerals, asking for scans, asking for help, etc... When everything is more or less ok, you can just Alt+click on the minimap to take attention or write a text. However, when a lot of events are going on, your teammate can often miss these indicators. How can you best grab their attention in absence of a microphone?


title: Weapon attachment kick effects

text: Does anyone have stats on how much the silencer attachment reduces recoil compared to the kick proficiency and grip attachment? It seems to vary from weapon to weapon, but I'm not sure. Additionally, the ACOG scope attachment sometimes seems to increase kick - I know it pushes the range flip of weapons farther out, so it makes sense. Is this a documented phenomenon? Thanks

But they still receive an email with this option, I see. So will they see my email?

So of course, I was challenged to a battle. I accepted, and when I got to the screen where I could pick which Pokemon are entered, I only saw what was currently in my party, and no option to get my Pokemon from the Battle Box. Is this what the Battle Box is used for? Why couldn't I battle with the Pokemon in it?

title: Why does my mission marker disappear in Saints Row 3?

text: When I'm doing a mission, for example, the mission "Live! With Killbane". I put the transmitters on the towers and followed the van and then I'm suppose to head to the interview. The mission marker shows up on some building that I fly to and then after I land on the building it disappears? I can't go down the building and when I'm out of the helicopter too long it says that I need to get back in it. But when I do I see no marker of where I should go. It's so confusing and quite annoying because I have failed 3-5 missions because of this glitch/bug. Anyone else have this problem and or know what to do to fix this?


title: How do GameShark codes work?

text: This has always boggled me. Obviously GameShark and Game Genie never got inside access to place their own cheats into _every game_. I don't think any developers gave them the source code to pour over for codes. And I don't think the original development process for these games included placing any of these codes themselves. So, what is a GameShark or Game Genie code, really? Both of them usually take the form of a relatively short hexadecimal string (or multiple if that is the case) so my intuition tells me they use the same principle. But are they just memory addresses to flip a bit? Or lock it? Or XOR a series of bits with something? What is the code, and what does it do?


title: Are Steam games sandboxed?

title: What happens if I use two cards with the same sort of effect?

text: When I am choosing my cards for a dig, I know I get three cards. Usually, I end up with three different ones, but I started to wonder - if I have a mission to collect, say, a lot of coal, can I stack card effects to make it easier? For example, can I use both a Coal Galore card that says "100% more Coal blocks. 12% of Coal blocks are explosive" and a More Coal card that says "100% more Coal blocks", and have the effects combine? Or does it just select the "better" card?


title: How can I maximize my critical chance?

text: I'd really like to build a mixed elemental/critical bow ranger (with a huge critical multiplier and, therefore, a high critical chance): it sounds like a nice way to deal great damages. There are several passive to increase the critical multiplier, but I can't find so many to increase the critical chance, which is pretty low with the bows I've found so far (the basic critical chance is 5%). I've also read several threads about this build on their forum, but most of them are either outdated, either heavily debated. How can I increase my critical chance ? Gear ? Gems ? Any passives I have missed ?


title: Do widow mines splash ground units when targeting air units?

text: I just played a monobattle, where I went widow mines. A teammate told me to not to burrow my mines in his mineral lines because of their splash, but the only units they had for harassment were air units. So my question is, **if a widow mine targets an air unit, would it also cause splash damage to ground units underneath it?** For example, if a bunch of mutalisks come fly on top of my mineral line, and my widow mine fires at them while on top of my workers, would my workers also be damaged?

I'd rather not have to load each game and go through their menus (if there even are any available) to find out which ones have been installed. Is there a way, outside of in-game menus or links, to get a list of _all_ DLCs installed on the PS3? I've tried the Game Data Utility, but this does not list individual DLCs. It only shows one item called "[Game Name] DLC and Patches" and will not give any more granular detail.


title: Can I go back to get unique loot?

text: I just finished the first mission (Lockdown), and was disappointed to see that I'd only found 2/4 unique loot items. Will I get the opportunity to go back later to find it, or do I have to restart/reload?


title: What does 'do a 180' mean in Halo 3?

text: I was reading this tip on my Halo 3 guide. It said to find a certain skull on the Covenant. I had to climb up this pathway at the 2 tower, turn left, then do a "180". How am I suppose to do a 180?


title: How do you support Ezreal?

text: I main supports. I do a job good enough, by feeding my AD carry, denying the other bot lane, roaming or pulling off clutch support moves, to "carry" the game more often than not. The one exception to that rule is Ezreal. Unlike other AD carries, I don't feel I make anything happen with Ezreal other than hope he is good enough to out-play our opponents. From my point of view, he has poor harass and poor burst. I can't play a kill lane Leona or Alistar as we'll likely get out-DPSed. I can't play a passive Soraka, but it feels like we're getting denied too easily. Blitzcank is about the only support I have had some success with, but even there it feels considerably more difficult than when I play Blitzcrank with other lane partners. Ezreal really feels like laning with a bad Corki.


title: How can I ensure a chubby spawn?

text: I've played a few hours between two characters having never seen a chubby monster spawn anywhere (as far as I recall anyway) and then I ran into two during my first trip to the caustic caverns with my second character. They seem to drop decent loot and the two I saw were pretty easy to defeat. Is there a reliable way to spawn these cute things so I can murder them for epic guns?


title: Is it required to kill all additional guards to save a citizen?

text: Are you only required to kill the specific guards that were harassing the citizen? Oftentimes another guard (or several guards) will patrol along and join the fight when they see it happening. Once you've killed the harassing guards is it safe to run away and hide somewhere to let the patrolling guards leave the scene? Can you then go back and save the citizen?


title: How do I find good minerals in Terraria?

text: How far do I need to dig to find good minerals and materials for good items? I think I've been digging for almost 200 blocks now and all I find is copper, iron, silver and gold. Where do I find good minerals like amethyst and such, to make lightsabers?


title: How much honor must I have to earn badges?

text: I see in this earlier question about honor that the amount needed is unknown, but in another question it's stated to be 25. How much **Teamplay** or **Honorable Opponent** honor must I earn to receive a badge?


title: Is the Orange Guidance Soapstone item consumable?

text: I've seen that the first merchant found in _Undead Burg_ is selling the _Orange Guidance Soapstone_ item. The in-game description of the item is: > Online play item. Write/view/rate message. > > Messages transmit to other worlds, where they are rated. Also, rate messages > of others. > > In Lordran, the flow of time is distorted, and messages allow Undead to > assist (or deceive) one another. So, it appear that in contrast to _Demon's Souls_ , I need this item to leave message to other players. What I'm wondering is whether or not this is a consumable item? Will I need to buy a new one each time I want to leave or rate a message? And isn't the description misleading? Because, I've not yet bought it, but I'm already able to see some message on the ground.

title: "ERROR" displayed on head items

text: In game, instead of hats (any other than default) a big 3D red "ERROR" is displayed. It used to work well till the update (the one when everyone got that paper boat hat). After loading a character's hat (in menu or in game no difference), the game would crash, and after few more updates I'm stuck with the "ERROR hat". Anyone else got this, are there any fixes or updates planned? _NOTE_ : I didn't use any mods, touch Steam files or other things that would result in missing data. Screenshot

text: When I try to start Runescape I get an error message that says: CLassNotFoundException and lists Rs2Applet.class. How do I fix this so I can play?


title: Is there a chance to lose all your enchantments when enchanting an item?

text: In the first game, there was only one enchanter in the game who could enchant your items as many times as you want if you had the money and were brave enough to chance at losing all your enhancements. The more you enchant an item, the more likely that he'd screw it up and you lose your enchantments on that item forever. Fast forward to the next game, you have a limited amount of enchantments that can be applied to an item but you now have the option to remove enchantments for some money. **Is there a chance that attempting to enchant an item _now_ can remove all enchantments on your item?** I've saved up enough money to enchant my best weapons so I will be enchanting as much as I can. I'd just hate to lose everything.


title: A safe way to get Rivet City Security Uniform?

text: In addition to collecting as many unique items as I can, late (late) in this most recent run of Fallout 3, I've been trying to get at least one sample of each kind of weapon and armor. It's not like I'm running off a list (as I am with the uniques), but if I know of something that I don't have, well, I want it. One of those items is the Rivet City Security Uniform. Now the obvious answer is to just whack one of the guards. And I would -- I have, in fact tried it, sneaking (fully hidden) and with a one-shot-kill weapon (MPLX Megasurge). I specifically tried to whack the guard outside Rivet City, as he seemed to be the most "exposed." However, his compatriots (including the officer in charge of handing out water with Broken Steel) still turned red and, as soon as I stopped sneaking, opened fire. I don't want Rivet City mad at me (at least, not until I commit mass murder), so what's the safest way to go about getting me some of that sweet, sweet Security Uniform goodness until then?

title: Windows Steam games on a Mac with WINE?

text: I love my MacBook (2008, aluminum, Intel processor with the low-end nVidia chipset). I don't like running Windows. I don't want a Windows Bootcamp partition, because I found I never used it. (I really only used it for Oblivion, and even then stopped eventually because I enjoyed it more on the XBox, and hated the reboot-into-Windows process.) I'm using WINE to run Fallout and Fallout 2, with great success. I also have the Steam client, which I've used to get Portal and a second copy of Civ IV (+ addons, mostly so I didn't need the DVD with me). What I want to know is, can I buy a Windows game from the Steam client for the Mac, and then run it via WINE? If so, do I need to take any special precautions? (For instance, my current `winecfg` emulates a 640x480 desktop to enable Fallout and Fallout 2.)


title: Am I stuck in an endless battle?

text: ![enter image description here](http://i.stack.imgur.com/3t8Dh.jpg) As you can see, I cannot escape because my fuel is empty. The enemy can't penetrate my shield but I can't damage him either. What could I do other than killing my crew by opening my airlocks?


title: Can you change your crew after the heist is planned?

text: I just finished evaluating the jewelry I want to rob, as well as choosing my crew and how to rob the place. Now, I'm on my way to steal a Pest Control van, when suddenly that programmer from Life Invader whom I helped with his pop-up virus problem, called me and asked me if I could get him a job. Now since the heist is already planned, I was curious if I can't switch my current hacker with that guy, after I evaluate his skill and the share he wants. Is there a way to do this, and how?


title: How can I view my known spells?

text: I recently started playing Elona and I'm having trouble finding a list of my known spells and how much stock I have of each spells.

How do I open of a list of my known spells and the stock remaining for each one?


title: What's the point of premium ammo for SU-26?

title: Do I get anything for the minigame at the beginning of Basic Braining - Obstacle Course 2?

text: I'm at the second part of the Basic Braining level and there's a minigame where I have to punch cardboard cutouts. I need to get a certain amount of points in X seconds. I've done the first few rounds and received Arrowheads for doing them, but I've failed one of the later ones a couple times now, and I'm wondering if I should just move on at this point. Do I actually get anything else for going further in this minigame or is it just a way to grind out more Arrowheads?


title: In Skyrim, the console command to set a follower as essential is not working. What am I doing wrong?

text: I am trying to change my companion to essential so they don't keep dying on me. However, the console command is not working for some reason. The code:               setessential <baseID> 1      should work (it has worked before with others), but when I type               isessential <baseID>      it comes back to 0. I can confirm it's not working, because my follower is still dying, which would not happen if they were essential. Why is it not working? What am I doing wrong?

title: Can my save games be salvaged?

text: I've been away from Crusader Kings for a while, to focus on more important things in life (mainly Europa Universalis 4). I run my game through Steam, so it autoupdates even if I don't play it for a while. I thought that was pretty smart, but when I boot up the game now, I get this sad screen: ![CK2 savegame screen](http://i.stack.imgur.com/QA2Jd.png) There is no "load" button, and clicking the game slot does nothing. It seems my old save is no longer compatible with my game. I've invested 80 hours in this save, and have worked my way up from lowly duke to triple-king on the brink of conquering my fourth kingdom and becoming an emperor. **Is there any possible way to salvage my savegame?** Can I convert it to a newer version?   Can I create a new game based exactly on my old save? Surely Paradox didn't just corrupt every game save for every player in a single update, so I guess it's because I am too many versions behind. Can I install an older version of the game locally and gradually update the save along with the game?


title: What's the maximum player level?

text: There is an achievement/trophy for getting to "the maximum player level" (unspecified in the text of said achievement/trophy). In researching, I found the highest unlock comes at player level 53 (the joke weapons). Is that the highest player level? If not, what is?


title: In Skyrim, I received a Letter of Inheritance from the courier, but it is blank! Is this a bug or is it supposed to be blank?

text: In Skyrim, after beginning the "Battle for Whiterun" and exiting the Palace of the Kings, the courier runs up to me and delivers a Letter of Inheritance. He says, "Here is a letter and a lot of gold - oh, and, sorry for your loss". However, the letter is blank! All it says is "In the name of the Jarl" and nothing else. I feel like there should be more, but I can't be certain. I'm afraid that after the Lydia running away incident after I got married to someone else (read my other question for more details), she seemed very emotionally unstable/upset, and that maybe when discovering that I had chosen to battle Whiterun, it was too much for her and she committed suicide! That would be terrible! Is this a bug or is the letter supposed to be blank? Did Lydia commit suicide? I cannot figure out if there is supposed to be a mystery or if this is just a game bug.


title: How does the point system work in Score Attack?

text: Is there a complete list of what things are worth in the Score Attack mode of Virtua Fighter 5: Final Showdown? How many points is getting the First Attack worth? How about a Perfect or a throw? How do the Time, Energy, and Special bonuses work?


title: Whats with the octagon?

text: From time to time I see a MASSIVE (at least 800 range diameter) blue octagon (or hexagon, it's gone too quick to be sure) on champions. It's gone in about 2-3 seconds everytime, too quickly for me to screenshot it by the time I realize it's there. I'll keep trying though. Further details: It's not a perfect shape, it has runes or mini shapes within it, some look like triangles, almost as if its several shape's outlines stacked on top of each other at different axi. Whats with this thing? Has anyone else seen it?


title: Do you get to keep mission weapons after you finish the mission?

title: Is it possible to understand (follow the story line) of Assassins Creed II, without having played Assassins Creed I?

text: I have never played any version of Assassins Creed but have read many good reviews about the series. In particular, the 2nd version (Assassins Creed II) seems to be most highly acclaimed. Having never played the game, I figure I would start with Assassins Creed II, but I am afraid I would not understand the full story line/plot of version II, without having played Assassins Creed I. However, I don't necessarily want to invest all the time to play and beat Assassin's Creed I, only to get to the 2nd ('better') version. Is it possible to understand the storyline plot of II simply by watching cutscenes from version I and/or reading wikipedia sites about version I? Would I be missing out on anything by taking this approach? This is for the Xbox 360 incase that makes a difference.


title: Fraps runs fine for an hour or so, then the framerate crashes

text: Whenever I record footage with Fraps, everything will run silky smooth at 60 fps for about an hour or so, but then the framerate will constantly lag at 1-15 fps. This will happen when playing any game. I have plenty of free HDD space. Here are my PC specs:               AMD Phenom II 3.4Ghz     Radeon HD 6870     8GB DDR3 RAM     Seagate Barracuda 1TB      Here are my Fraps settings:               60 fps     30-sec loop buffer     Lock framerate both on and off      Does anyone know what could be causing this? If not, then what would you suggest as an alternate recording software? (NOT CamStudio or Camtasia)

In the interest of fraud detection, what is the definitive (read as: {{Citation needed}}) list of possible characters which might make up this string? Bonus points: given these additional rules, what are the number of possible strings that could be formed.

title: Do you ever see the person you escaped Helgen with again?

text: There's so much continuity in this game (for example meeting Cicero on the road before you see him at the Dark Brotherhood) that I thought perhaps you might get to meet the character you left Helgen with again (Hadvar or the other guy). Has anyone bumped into them? They don't seem to be in Riverwood still.


title: Is it possible to get a Bob to move without killing him?

text: On levels that have Bobs in them, the Bobs frequently get stuck - jammed together in narrow hallways and such, blocking them. On levels such as The Rose (Marathon 1) where your mission is to keep as many from being killed as possible, it's kind of counterproductive to kill the Bobs to get them out of the way; but if they're blocking the door to an important comm terminal then sometimes there's no choice but to kill them. Is there any way to 'prod' a Bob to move in the other direction without hurting or killing him?


title: Do legacy surnames have to be unique?

text: Obviously character names are unique per server, but are legacy surnames as well?


title: Which enemy abilities are affected by silence?

text: Torchlight 2 has many status effects that can be applied to monsters. However, they seem to be poorly documented (if at all.) One of these is `silence`, which has a spell dedicated to it, is a byproduct of the nether imp's attack, and is an effect produced by many magical weapons. Its official spell description is this: > Silences enemies within 8 meters, preventing them from using most skills. **Which abilities/monsters are affected?** (The only one that I think I've noticed is the basilisk's immobilizing gaze.)


title: Ground getting polluted by itself?

text: After logging in to the game, I suddenly found out most of my city ground is getting poluted. The issue is that, I am running 'green' town, and there was no polution over many days of gameplay, and suddenly lots of it being generated. Also the polution is in very interesting 'mini squares', please look on screenshots as reference. Question: Why is my city getting polluted? That makes little sense and completely ruined my city. ![Random pollution](http://i.stack.imgur.com/nV5JQ.jpg) More pictures of the situation (fullscreen):   1. Overall ground pollution overlay   2. Air pollution overlay (Bare in mind the Garbage dump would not give me any trouble for the last IRL week of playing this city)   3. Germs overlay (Obviously, as the ground is all poluted)   4. Sewage overlay   5. Water pollution overlay (Notice the stripes!)   6. Garbage overlay (They manage to collect all garbage by around 10PM each day) All that is happening enormously fast, there was 0 pollution '2 in-game days' ago, and it it keeps growing. I also have filled all the spaces with trees, but the generated pollution is if all those buildings were Processors Factories.


title: Are there multiple endings in The Stanley Parable demo?

title: Where can I find a pistol silencer in the single player campaign?

text: How can you get a silencer for the M12 Nova and Feline? I completed the game and during the whole playthough I only encountered one. During the mission "Lab Rat" where you are attacked by a Cell helicopter in Dr. Goulds lab, one enemy dropped a M12 Nova with a silencer. But I died and had to reload, and this time no enemy dropped one. During the rest of the game I examined (almost) every pistol or SMG dropped by enemies, but never found one with an attached silencer. Is there some guaranteed opportunity to pick one up which I missed or at least one situation where one drops with a high propability?

title: Whats the most common collective hp of any one hero?

text: Is there some way to accumulate the data and find, within the range of 400 hp give or take, the average number of hitpoints a champion has? Regardless of their inventory build or perhaps even including that factor? Bonus points for including the per level of exp. The purpose of this question is to formulate an exact plan to do the required amount of damage to an enemy champion at any given moment to bring your dps to the point of 'usually' killing for sure. Sure, some heroe's cant burst appropriatly enough, but those that can could really benefit from such a stradegy. You know the 'point' in your build where your effectiveness dps will (usually) allow you to 1v1 a hero.


title: How do attacks work in Diablo III?

text: Does Diablo 3 use a single-roll attack table, or does each possibility get rolled separately. For instance, on a single roll table, any given attack has X% chance to hit, Y% chance to crit, Z% chance to be dodged, and A% chance to be blocked. The alternative is a cascade, where each possibility is tried in order. I.e., Was it dodged? No, then was it blocked? No, then did it crit? No, so it's a normal hit. Gearing strategies change a little depending on which method is used, so I was hoping someone could shed some light on this.

title: Why do FPS games for consoles include a sensitivity setting?

text: On a PC - where everyone has different mouse/keyboard/hardware - having configurable input sensitivity makes sense to me, because everyone's hardware is different. But on consoles where everyone has approximately the same (and mostly official) controllers, why do certain games need to include sensitivity configuration? Anyone care to enlighten me why console FPSs need sensitivity settings?

Is there a more reliable way to get a pet unstuck and immediately?

However, I have no idea what the 'Boost' gauge does - is there a certain boost that I can activate? Does it give me an advantage when it's full? I'm not sure what it does, since most of the time it matches the RPM gauge. Here's a screenshot of the boost gauge, highlighted in pink: ![boost gauge](http://i.stack.imgur.com/lVxz4.png)


title: Will buying items from the Mann Co. Online Store give me Trading Cards?

text: The Steam Trading Cards Beta currently states: > **What about free to play games like Team Fortress 2 or Dota 2?** > > Free to play games drop game cards based on your in-game purchasing. For > every $9 USD spent (approximate) since the start of the Steam Trading Card > Beta, you will earn one card drop. This card will drop at some point as you > play. If you have made in-game purchases in Dota 2 or Team Fortress 2 prior > to the Steam Trading Card Beta, or if you owned Team Fortress 2 prior to the > Free to Play update, you will have 4 or 5 additional card drops available. While it only mentions in-game purchases, will buying items from the _Mann Co. **Online_** _Store_ count as an "in-game" purchase? I more often use the the Mann Co. Online Store when buying things; I can easily switch tabs to the Wiki and see each item's detail, and that helps me when buying any item. Essentially, if I purchased $9.00 USD of items from the Mann Co. Online Store, will I get a trading card, or must all purchases be completed via the in-game store?


title: How to tend to a wounded dwarf?

text: I was building a vertical tunnel down multiple levels when I realized that one of my other dwarves had already dug the lower half. When the poor dwarf dug through the upper half, he fell multiple stories and is now lying there unconscious and with both arms and both legs broken. Now what? I don't have a doctor or anyone trained in caring for wounded dwarves yet, how do I proceed from here? * * * **Edit #1** OK I followed the various ideas (thanks!) but before a medical dwarf could get to him, someone else moved him a few squares cause he was in the way (heh), and he woke up. His "thoughts and preferences" still have               His left upper leg is broken. His right lower arm is broken.     His left lower arm is broken. His right upper leg is broken      BUT he is taking digging jobs and seems to be acting like everything is OK. He also now has a "health" page but it says `No health problems`. Is this a bug or something I'm doing wrong? * * * **Edit #2** The problem was that the doctor had not taken a look at him and made a diagnosis. After he took a look, here is what I see (and it hurts to look):               left lower arm, bone      Needs setting      Smashed apart               right lower arm, bone      Needs setting      Smashed apart               left upper leg, bone      Needs setting      Smashed apart               right upper leg, bone      Needs setting      Smashed apart

title: Minecraft Survival Mode

text: I am playing minecraft on survival mode. I can break blocks like sand, dirt, and gravel and it will give me a block. When I try to break stone or iron or anything else, it didn't give me a block. What can I do so that I can get a block? I am on single player and my internet is fine. I tried deleting the app and then getting the app again but that didn't work. This is happening with all my worlds in survival mode. Help?


title: How can I protect my home?

text: My friend and I own an Attack of the B-team server and we want to make it public. Since it's an Attack of the B-team server, we can't install any plugins. We've spent a fair amount of time building our house and we don't want it to be raided when we make it public. We thought of building a bedrock wall surrounding it, but that would obviously take a very long time. How can we quickly do this? Or better yet, how can we protect our house from raiding when we make it public, without using any plugins?


title: Clash Of Heroes (iPhone): Completing Irollan

text: I've finished the main campaign in Clash of Heroes (iPhone version) and am now tidying up the side quests. On the Irollan world map there was a stat saying "8/12" I did everything i could find in Irollan (puzzles and bounty fights), and when i went back to the bounty hunter to get the last reward i got a popup saying "All side quests completed" or words to that effect. But, when i go back to the world map, Irollan has the completion stat saying "11/12". So, my question is - what else do i need to do to get up to 12/12? Is there anything _besides_ side quests that gets this stat up? cheers, max
