04:47.30 | The_Randomness | Hey Drodo |
04:47.54 | DrodoEmpire | Hey |
04:47.54 | The_Randomness | In Stellaris, apparently the researchers at this observation post of mine are a bunch of pranksters |
04:48.00 | DrodoEmpire | Oh dear |
04:48.18 | The_Randomness | First some of them expose themselves to the natives, sparking a religious war |
04:48.21 | DrodoEmpire | Researchers - HEY |
04:48.25 | DrodoEmpire | Researchers - FUCK YOU |
04:48.26 | The_Randomness | Then they start making crop circles |
04:48.29 | The_Randomness | lol |
04:48.32 | DrodoEmpire | Researchers - YOU JUST GOT PRANKED |
04:48.51 | DrodoEmpire | Oh wow |
04:49.00 | DrodoEmpire | Something tells me that's against regulation <.< |
04:49.24 | DrodoEmpire | Actually that sorta gives me an idea |
04:49.50 | DrodoEmpire | You know how in CKII, there's this sorta tongue-in-cheek expansion you can get called "Sunset Invasion", right? |
04:49.54 | The_Randomness | "It's just a prank bro!" |
04:49.58 | DrodoEmpire | hur |
04:50.00 | The_Randomness | No, I've never played the game |
04:50.03 | DrodoEmpire | Ahh |
04:50.37 | DrodoEmpire | Well in Crusader Kings II Sunset Invasion basically it adds an Aztec invasion of Western Europe |
04:51.33 | DrodoEmpire | I got the idea for a half-serious optional DLC for EUIV that's basically alien interference/invasion- basically implying you're playing as pre-FTL people in a larger game of Stellaris |
04:51.39 | The_Randomness | Heh |
04:51.46 | DrodoEmpire | Just thought it'd be funny |
04:53.38 | The_Randomness | Yeah, I'd imagine there could be some interesting random events you could get from that |
04:54.09 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
04:54.32 | DrodoEmpire | Mysterious crop-circles, dead farm animals, creepy alien cults <.< |
04:55.26 | The_Randomness | Yeah |
04:55.34 | The_Randomness | That sounds kind of cool though, if a little wacky |
04:56.00 | The_Randomness | Also, protip: you can cheese leader mandates by destroying stations and rebuilding them |
04:57.59 | DrodoEmpire | Oh wow |
04:58.08 | DrodoEmpire | And yeah it *is* pretty bizarre |
04:58.22 | The_Randomness | I just got an idea |
04:58.30 | DrodoEmpire | But so're technologically-advanced native americans invading the coasts of France by their millions. XD |
04:58.32 | The_Randomness | What if we do that in the collab project eventually? |
04:58.40 | The_Randomness | :P |
04:58.50 | DrodoEmpire | A pre-FTL species and an FTL species interacting? |
04:58.57 | The_Randomness | yeah |
04:58.58 | DrodoEmpire | I've had that exact idea in the form of the Silvan |
04:59.02 | The_Randomness | oh that's right |
04:59.26 | DrodoEmpire | Which I'm using in the fictionverse currently but can apply the idea, albeit slightly tweaked in a more meaningful way in the collabverse |
05:01.06 | The_Randomness | right |
05:04.07 | The_Randomness | I'm 50 years in and I still haven't gotten any research opportunities for upgrading my laser weapons :| |
05:08.10 | The_Randomness | How do I improve other empires' opinion of me? |
05:14.42 | The_Randomness | *opinions |
05:17.31 | DrodoEmpire | Hmm |
05:18.03 | DrodoEmpire | Exchanging embassies is one way |
05:18.41 | DrodoEmpire | Look at the opinion modifiers as well- often there might be something you're doing that might be upsetting them you could afford to stop doing for the sake of good relations |
05:18.58 | DrodoEmpire | Its a trick I've picked up with paradox games in general really |
05:19.25 | DrodoEmpire | Doing the opposite of a given modifier will often cancel it out |
05:20.32 | The_Randomness | Main things seem to be that my empire is spiritualist and I'm a little weaker than them |
05:20.59 | The_Randomness | I've already got an embassy with them, if that's what you mean |
05:22.21 | DrodoEmpire | It is, so hm |
05:22.36 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah there're some modifiers you can do very little about and those are two of them |
05:23.32 | The_Randomness | rip |
05:42.47 | DrodoEmpire | test |
05:52.05 | The_Randomness | Oh wow, one of my scientists is 102 years old |

14:49.20 | Wormy_ | And although its easy to make fun of ARA's, they recently infiltrated cameras into major abattoirs in UK and Europe, and revealed the degree of animal abuse, pigs and sheep being kicked and stomped on.

14:52.00 | drom | They have so much skin and fat around their necks |
14:52.12 | Wormy_ | Another one is male chicks sent into the meat grinder alive |

14:55.15 | Hachiman | Ooh |
14:55.21 | Hachiman | This looks intriguing |
14:57.43 | Wormy_ | Fair enough, its not my favourite subject either. |
15:00.39 | Wormy_ | On a lighter note, I believe Elon Musk will probably beat NASA in sending humans to Mars http://phys.org/news/2016-06-musk-cargo-route-mars.html |
15:03.46 | Monet | SpaceX is definitely showing evidence that commerical space ventures are more prompt and flexible than nationalsied ones |
15:04.32 | Monet | I'm perfectly fine with it, I think that space travel has much ot gain from being more commercialised. |
15:05.15 | Wormy_ | I think its where the future of space exploration is. Once we begin to build infrastructure in space we can do a lot more in deep space travel, space based power and resources, tourism and so on |
15:06.32 | Wormy_ | Hell it will create loads on new jobs in the STEM sector concerning robotics, space technologies, mineral exploration, and also desk and service jobs. |
15:07.01 | Wormy_ | Space mining will probably be done by robots |
15:08.02 | Wormy_ | AI research, those robots better be able to autonomously recognise and predict mineral deposits. |

17:12.55 | Wormy_ | Ghel: http://www.kotaku.co.uk/2016/06/03/elites-ai-created-super-weapons-and-started-hunting-players-skynet-is-here |
17:14.34 | Wormy_ | Monet: Might be useful for your thesis |
17:17.12 | Ghel | 'Antonaci says the team doesn't "think the AI became sentient in a Skynet-style uprising" but that's just what the computers would want them to think.' |
17:17.55 | Wormy_ | This almost would have related to mine. I was looking at how physics engines in 3D and game software can be used to model emergent physics-*phenomena*. It looks as though AI can use virtual environments that are initially quite simple to create emergent *intelligent*-solutions. |
17:18.49 | Wormy_ | If they create a true intelligence, it won't stay bottled into the game world forever. It would begin to learn about the underlying rules, and probably infer its computational existence as we can learn of quantum mechanics |
17:19.58 | Wormy_ | It might not percieve the game environment as we see it, that would be interesting |
17:23.04 | Ghel | Yes; I have no knowledge whatsoever of the underlying coding, but I don't suppose the AI would have any reason to see all of the graphics. |
17:24.40 | Ghel | As for the AI escaping the game world, maybe. If they can communicate with players that would open up a lot more possibilities. But if they realise that the real world doesn't contain such overpowered weapons (nor are so they so easy to make), maybe they wouldn't have any incentive to? |
17:24.45 | Wormy_ | I have to remind myself sometimes when creating a physics-driven animation, its all in the data flow, not the graphics world that simply rendering it to me. |
17:26.47 | Hachiman | Monet: So, I'm watching the Dark Knight Returns and fucking hell it's dark |
17:27.10 | Wormy_ | It would come to learn that the "wider universe" is probably so wildly different the AI would have to undergo changes in itself in order to function. I think a Skynet-type intelligence would still find it very difficult to spread influence due to economic factors and gathering resources behind the scenes, since those things are challenges in and of themselves |
17:27.20 | Monet | HAchiman: SHowing Gotham in the daylight is but a deception. |
17:28.03 | Monet | Oh wait wrong series. |

17:28.58 | Hachiman | And Batman is like a 60 year old |
17:31.18 | Wormy_ | In any case, I think they should let the AI run amok in Elite. |
17:31.36 | Wormy_ | I'm suddenly more interested in playing it. |
17:32.15 | Wormy_ | Though there is the danger of rampant AI making it unplayable. |
17:32.51 | Monet | It'll stil lbe one of those time-sink games |
17:34.01 | Wormy_ | Trying to dumb down AI might be losing battle anyway, since there would always be ways the game's rules and bugs can be exploited. |
17:34.41 | Technobliterator | They just announced a Telltale Batman game |
17:34.48 | Technobliterator | As further proof that DC have basically won videogames |

17:40.16 | Technobliterator | they're missing out on a huge opportunity to make good games |
17:40.25 | Technobliterator | like if they made an actually good Spider Man since Spider Man 2 |
17:40.32 | Technobliterator | but they just let DC walk all over them there |
17:41.11 | Monet | I don't know about the more independant SPider-man titles. |
17:41.28 | Monet | But when you make a movie-liscence game there's a very large likelihood it's going ot be shit. |
17:41.41 | Technobliterator | yeah, that's what I like about DC's games |
17:41.46 | Technobliterator | None of them are meant to be movie tie-ins |
17:41.58 | Monet | They made one for Batman Begins |
17:42.09 | Technobliterator | and it was bad |
17:42.19 | Technobliterator | all their pre Arkham games were |
17:44.18 | Monet | I'd not bog myself down into which studio is better. I prefer Marvel but I know both DC and Marvel have made amazing comic stories |

17:45.02 | Technobliterator | In terms of comics, it's more even |
17:45.14 | Technobliterator | But it's clear that DC are much better at games and Marvel are much better at films |
17:45.24 | Monet | And the two companies themselves are in a rivalry that's less vitriolic than what its are engaging in. |

17:47.19 | Treebeard | Hello |
17:47.48 | Cyrannian | Hi |
17:47.51 | Cyrannian | http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/spore/images/f/f7/MaastrichtiaImperialNavalBase.png/revision/latest?cb=20160612174741 - take a look |
17:48.15 | Monet | Technobliterator: Yeah. The two are competetive, but don't slag each other off. |
17:48.33 | Technobliterator | Indeed |
17:48.42 | Technobliterator | it's more of a healthy competition |
17:48.56 | Monet | A guest speaker I once had worked for both Marvel and DC and that's not at all uncommon. |
17:49.18 | Technobliterator | between Warner Bros and Disney, I'm not sure if that's the same thing |
17:49.27 | Technobliterator | I wonder how long it'll be before all the film rights just go back to Disney |
17:49.54 | Technobliterator | and then the other three big studios have to work out their own way to print money |
17:51.52 | Monet | Although then again with the'winning videogames' I don't know of any Superman game that was better than 'meh' |
17:52.28 | Monet | The nagain how do you make the world's most broken supwerhero entertaining ot play? |
17:52.40 | *** join/#sporewiki OfficerJackal (~OfficerJa@2601:6c0:4202:1ad0:c006:1edf:6dd0:7046) |
17:53.32 | Technobliterator | yeah, to be honest |
17:53.38 | Cyrannian | http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/spore/images/7/75/Maastrichtia.png/revision/latest?cb=20160612175327 - Also c dis |
17:53.44 | Technobliterator | I don't think it's ever possible to make a Superman game that's good and completely true to the character |
17:54.07 | Treebeard | Cyrannian: I like the subtlety of the Star Destroyers in the background of the first image |
17:54.12 | Technobliterator | Cyrannian, those are really good :o |
17:54.29 | Monet | This is why I prefer Captain America. |
17:55.20 | Technobliterator | I find these purity superheroes to be kind of dull |
17:55.29 | Monet | Superman's like...the definitive Mary Sue for me: All-powerful, impossible ot argue with, is good at heart all the time. |
17:55.32 | Cyrannian | Thanks, it's the homeworld of these: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Creature:Thanatyrannus |
17:55.34 | Technobliterator | Yep |
17:55.39 | Technobliterator | Superman always bored me |
17:55.56 | Monet | It's to the point I enjoy the Superman the most when he turns evil for some reason. |
17:56.02 | Technobliterator | Really, the best Marvel hero that they could make a game for is Spider-Man |
17:56.07 | Technobliterator | oh, maybe Deadpool |
17:56.18 | Technobliterator | but even then I'd argue it's hard to make a game that's true to Deadpool's character |
17:56.32 | Monet | I loved Hulk: Ultimate Destruction. |
17:56.35 | Technobliterator | he's literally immortal |
17:56.38 | Technobliterator | I never played that |
17:56.50 | Technobliterator | But I imagine it's hard to make a game true to Hulk's character for the same reason |
17:57.26 | Monet | Hulk doesn't hold back, unlike superman. |
17:58.13 | Monet | Although really the only purpose Ultimate Destruction has is to just go on a rampage |
17:58.38 | Treebeard | Cyrannian: The Thanatyrannus' culture reminds me of the Imperium of War |
17:59.18 | Cyrannian | It is quite similar come to think of it |
17:59.43 | Technobliterator | Well, the thing is |
17:59.54 | Technobliterator | if a superhero is literally invincible or immortal |
18:00.13 | Technobliterator | it's hard to make the game fun because the player can never die and just putting a timer on every single mission makes it annoying |
18:00.21 | Technobliterator | whereas, if they put a health bar on them |
18:00.36 | Technobliterator | that doesn't work, because those superheroes are immortal |
18:00.53 | Monet | I think Hltimate Destrution works because, as the name suggests, you can jsut go on a total nuke-level rampage. |
18:01.15 | Technobliterator | so with Iron Man, Spider Man or whoever, they work because those people can die |
18:01.23 | Technobliterator | but Deadpool, Wolverine, Hulk, those can't |
18:01.29 | Technobliterator | can Thor technically die? |
18:01.56 | Monet | Asgardians have been known to die |
18:02.47 | Monet | In the movies they do put forward that Asgardians aren't immortal their lifespans are just many many times longer than most humans. |
18:03.35 | Technobliterator | ah |
18:03.42 | Technobliterator | then yeah, they could give Thor a health bar |
18:04.41 | *** join/#sporewiki OfficerJackal (~OfficerJa@2601:6c0:4202:1ad0:c006:1edf:6dd0:7046) |
18:05.07 | Monet | Also think a health bar works for Hulk. He's nigh-on impossible to kill yes but has been knocked on his face at times. |
18:05.52 | Monet | The Hulk can be knocked about and exhausted. |
18:06.59 | Technobliterator | oh, fair point |
18:08.04 | Monet | He and Wolverine are immortal by way of a ridiculous regeneration factor. |
18:08.32 | Monet | Unlike Superman who is invincible by way of his skin being so tough that bullets bounce off it. |
18:09.31 | Treebeard | So the best way to do it would be to give them a weak health bar that regenerates quickly, and an overall resistance to damage that can be slowly worn down over time? |
18:10.22 | Treebeard | That would stop player from being reckless, while still representing their toughness |
18:11.37 | Monet | That's somewhat ocnfusing |
18:11.55 | Monet | Just give the ma big regeneratign health bar. |

18:20.58 | Ghel | This has all brought back to me vague recollections of how, many years ago, there was a suggestion of including superheroes and supervillains in SporeWiki fiction. |
18:21.35 | Ghel | I think it was supposed to be a separate fictionverse; either way, with how powerful so many characters are, I suppose it would be somewhat redundant now. |
18:21.58 | Hachiman | The era of superpowered characters in the Fictionverse is coming to an end though |
18:22.09 | Hachiman | Much more focus on realpolitik and other stuff |

18:24.38 | Ghel | I wouldn't say it's going to disappear, but yeah; I don't think it's taking up as large a share of the in-progress fictions as it used to. |
18:26.07 | Monet | I think there's still a place for superpowered characters |
18:26.37 | Ghel | Oh, there definitely is. Genesis of Nightmares when Wormy's finished his work, for one. |
18:26.54 | Monet | They're just not everywhere anymore. I suppose one way of looking at it is the gigaquadrant is stepping out of the time of myths where gods walked among mortals. |
18:28.10 | Wormy_ | Or that because there are so many gods amongst mortals, its become equalised and trivialised. After-all, the gods might still want bank accounts and engage in politics. |

18:29.03 | Wormy_ | High technology and essence are distributed enough to be part of a capitalist system |
18:30.13 | Ghel | There'll be a combination of the two. Certainly low-level psychic powers are presumably very common, and tech like Iron Man's suits or supersoldier serums aren't so high-tech by 29th-century standards. |
18:31.04 | Ghel | But then there literally don't seem to be so many demons rampaging around the Gigaquadrant as there used to be. |
18:32.04 | Ghel | The fantasyverse has taken over a lot in that regard. |

18:34.14 | Xho | demons eh |
18:35.43 | Monet | Hi |
18:36.20 | Ghel | IIRC, the only two characters ever created for the civverse were essentially supervillains too. |
18:37.42 | Cyrannian | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:New_Cyrannian_Republic/Military/Strategic_Intelligence - Started working on this |
18:39.30 | Wormy_ | Ghel, Monet: It sets an interesting precedant though. The Xhodocto/Demon cycle is beginng to wane, like it always has. Memory fades. And then They will return. |
18:40.10 | Xho | Well the Xhodocto and demons are only as active as I or Oluap are |
18:40.14 | Xho | Which isn't much nowadays |
18:40.34 | Wormy_ | Yeah, it may never return out-f-universe |
18:41.11 | Wormy_ | But I assume the Xhodocto in-universe will always be like a perennial foe to the universe and eventually down the line they will return as they always had. |
18:41.12 | Technobliterator | Yeah, but Oluap is only as active as you are |
18:41.20 | Technobliterator | in the demon areas anyway |
18:41.41 | Xho | Basically Oluap and I are inactive on the Fictionverse front |
18:41.50 | Xho | Oluap less so than me |
18:42.03 | Ghel | Oluap has been editing demon-related stuff recently. |
18:42.41 | Xho | o rly |
18:42.47 | Technobliterator | I mean none of you guys would be active in the fictionverse if I hurried up with Reckoning and we could get to the Borealis War rewrite eventually : | |

20:05.04 | Cyrannian | Also, is there a reason why it's five minutes late? |
20:05.07 | Monet_Semi | It's got that toen where it's trying to say "we're hip! See we listen to modern music" een though the music's 10 years old |
20:05.20 | OluapPlayer | No reason |

20:11.38 | Cyrannian | That guy looks equally Satan-like |
20:11.38 | Technobliterator | politeness, Wormy |
20:11.43 | Monet_Semi | Wormy_: COnference etiquette |
20:12.01 | Wormy_ | Okay then, why turn up to the EA confererence? |
20:12.11 | Technobliterator | lmao |
20:12.11 | Monet_Semi | And occasionally there's some poor sod whose genuinely excited. |
20:12.53 | Monet_Semi | Wormy_: Some of the audience are likely press and shareholders. |
20:13.01 | Wormy_ | true |
20:13.10 | Technobliterator | this is already |
20:13.12 | Technobliterator | really dull |
20:13.23 | OluapPlayer | 13 minutes after scheduled start |
20:13.24 | OluapPlayer | and no games |
20:13.25 | Cyrannian | I'm excited to see which hand movement he does next |
20:13.42 | Monet_Semi | Tickets to attending E3 are unavaialble to the general public - you have to be a member of the tech or gaming industry. Or press. |
20:13.59 | OluapPlayer | I was wondering how you could get there |
20:15.15 | Cyrannian | That does actually look fun, though I've never played Titanfall |
20:15.36 | OluapPlayer | I didn't even know there was a Titanfall 1 |
20:15.45 | Technobliterator | Why is everyone excited about this game? ?_? |
20:15.49 | Technobliterator | I thought everyone was bored of sci fi shooters |

20:16.49 | Technobliterator | the Twithc chat are not |
20:16.51 | Monet_Semi | I first thought they were showing Advanced Warfare. |
20:17.05 | Monet_Semi | Twitch is full of stupid though. |
20:17.22 | OluapPlayer | Like I said, I keep the chat hidden |
20:17.24 | Monet_Semi | More Halo. |
20:17.24 | Technobliterator | MASS EFFECT |
20:17.30 | OluapPlayer | No |
20:17.31 | Cyrannian | errr I'm getting major Halo vibes |
20:17.35 | Technobliterator | or wait no |
20:17.36 | OluapPlayer | Still Titanfall 2 |
20:17.36 | Technobliterator | bleh |
20:17.47 | Wormy_ | So the show, the cheering, its all for pretend |
20:17.57 | Wormy_ | expensive pretend |
20:18.14 | Monet_Semi | Cyrannian: You're not alone. |
20:18.23 | Monet_Semi | I got major Halo vibes from Infinite Warfare. |
20:18.59 | Cyrannian | Even the music is very Halo 4-esque |
20:19.09 | Monet_Semi | EA/Soft's sci-fi shooters just feel so samey now. |
20:19.13 | OluapPlayer | SPORTS |

20:24.24 | Monet_Semi | I don't know what qualifies as a serial killer after discovering American Psycho. |
20:24.42 | Wormy_ | They probably have herculean button smashing strength |
20:24.48 | OluapPlayer | Mass Erect is next |
20:24.49 | Wormy_ | *mashing |
20:24.52 | Technobliterator | MASS EFFECT |
20:24.59 | Technobliterator | ie one of two things I actually care about at this conference |
20:25.13 | Wormy_ | Look one of them played so hard his arm broke. |
20:25.15 | OluapPlayer | Reminder to not get too excited about post ME3 Bioware |
20:25.26 | Cyrannian | Garrus better be there |
20:25.38 | OluapPlayer | There won't be returning characters |
20:25.44 | OluapPlayer | It's another galaxy u dingus |
20:25.45 | Technobliterator | meh, I'm willing to look past ME3 |
20:25.45 | Monet_Semi | Sorry. |
20:25.49 | Monet_Semi | Complete clean slate |
20:26.01 | Cyrannian | butbutbut my raptor alien waifu |
20:26.02 | OluapPlayer | I'm not |
20:26.21 | OluapPlayer | It's not the same company anymore, it's been sucked dry by EA |
20:26.22 | Monet_Semi | For me ME3 was fine aside form the last ten minutes of the story. |
20:26.40 | OluapPlayer | It has to have some excellent gameplay to win me over |
20:26.42 | Cyrannian | It was my favourite |
20:26.43 | Monet_Semi | I was still engrossed on the combat. |
20:26.45 | Technobliterator | IT BEGINS |
20:26.49 | Cyrannian | ahhhhh |
20:27.10 | Technobliterator | unrealistic |
20:27.13 | Technobliterator | humanity should be dead |
20:27.19 | OluapPlayer | New species -> everyone is still humanoid |
20:27.25 | Monet_Semi | You can tell who are the EA reps and who are the developer reps. |
20:27.42 | Monet_Semi | None of the developer reps seem to be wearing suits. |
20:27.44 | Wormy_ | I might get ME4 and skip 2 and 3. I didn't get along with the mechanics of 1 and this will cleanslate the story and probably have better gameplay |
20:27.54 | Cyrannian | I'm still disappointed you can only play as a human |
20:28.06 | Technobliterator | oh, powered by frostbite |
20:28.08 | Technobliterator | that's cool |
20:28.45 | Cyrannian | oooh that's a sexy ship |
20:28.52 | DrodoEmpire | Frostbite hurts dude |
20:28.53 | DrodoEmpire | >: |

20:29.23 | Technobliterator | instead of a proper trailer |
20:29.24 | Technobliterator | cmon |
20:29.25 | Monet_Semi | Ooh mocap tech |
20:30.04 | Monet_Semi | Personally I din't care much what species the PC plays as so long as the characterisation is solid. |
20:30.10 | OluapPlayer | No gameplay |
20:30.15 | OluapPlayer | Fuck off |
20:30.33 | Technobliterator | yeah that was dumb |
20:30.37 | Technobliterator | can they shhow us |
20:30.40 | Cyrannian | It looks promising though |
20:30.40 | Technobliterator | an actual trailer |
20:30.43 | Wormy_ | Monet: Whats with the characters falling over cliffs in some of these trailers? Subliminal meaning perhaps? |
20:31.17 | OluapPlayer | I don't trust Bioware |
20:31.17 | Monet_Semi | Wormy_: "leap of faith" metaphor perhaps? |
20:31.20 | DrodoEmpire | Nah just means they're gonna have a bad time when they hit the bottom <.< |
20:31.32 | OluapPlayer | Takes way more than cinematic trailers to win me over |
20:31.50 | Wormy_ | Maybe |
20:32.17 | Wormy_ | I have a feeling there is some kind of executive theme in these trailers |
20:32.20 | Monet_Semi | FUck I was going to make an EA money-grubbing joke but he mentioned it related to charity. |
20:32.26 | Wormy_ | After-all, EA might do that sort of thing |
20:32.55 | OluapPlayer | MORE SPORTS |

20:35.03 | Cyrannian | I am confused |
20:35.12 | Technobliterator | this guy is boring |
20:35.16 | Cyrannian | This is becoming needlessly dramatic |
20:35.19 | OluapPlayer | fuck off adidas man you're not videogames |
20:35.41 | Monet_Semi | OluapPLayer: Pele couldn't make it this year so they had to get someone else. |
20:35.46 | Wormy_ | This poor bloke is advocating football but E3 want everyone o play cybersport instead |
20:35.46 | OluapPlayer | LEL |
20:35.48 | Technobliterator | EA just loves Frostbite |
20:35.49 | Cyrannian | "but i don't want to go with you" |
20:36.03 | Technobliterator | it's like their version of Unity |
20:36.24 | OluapPlayer | I can't comment because I actually know jack all about game engines |
20:36.26 | Monet_Semi | Technobliterator: It is their latest and most sophisticated engine |
20:36.34 | Technobliterator | wtf |
20:36.37 | Technobliterator | FIFA campaign? |
20:36.40 | Technobliterator | what |
20:36.46 | Wormy_ | Are they adding drama and character gameplay to a sports game? |
20:36.51 | Hachiman | FUTBOL |
20:36.55 | Cyrannian | I wonder if you can play as Rooney and become involved in a prostitution scandal |
20:36.59 | Hachiman | olol |
20:37.12 | Hachiman | Wouldn't happen because nobody wants to play a character who looks like a pig |

20:38.25 | Wormy_ | I was not impressed with the character modelling. |
20:38.35 | OluapPlayer | Yeah me neither |
20:38.51 | OluapPlayer | They look like PS3 models |
20:38.58 | Technobliterator | the character modelling was awful |
20:39.00 | Monet_Semi | Waste of Frostbite. |
20:39.07 | Cyrannian | I don't know who that is, but he looks important |
20:39.14 | Cyrannian | Oh yes |

20:48.23 | OluapPlayer | There's nothing furry about this, what |
20:48.26 | Monet_Semi | Not sure if he's pale and nervous because this is a big brea kfor him...or if this is a side-effect of selling your soul to EA. |

21:00.05 | Wormy_ | The game looks interesting, what little I saw |
21:00.10 | Monet_Semi | Aaas peopel were sying |
21:00.15 | Technobliterator | this was awful |
21:00.21 | Wormy_ | Cyrannian: Its like we haven't seen anymore since the teaser last year |
21:00.26 | Cyrannian | aye |
21:00.34 | Monet_Semi | "no trailer boo" "how about some gameplay footage?" |
21:00.53 | Monet_Semi | "no trailer boo" |
21:01.04 | OluapPlayer | This is why the Fe trailer was the best so far. It actually had gameplay in it |
21:01.34 | Monet_Semi | Well there's a screnshot |

21:02.13 | Cyrannian | I think I might get Battlefield 1 |
21:02.25 | Monet_Semi | Wait was that a Nazi helmet? |
21:02.37 | Wormy_ | I like the unpredictability element |
21:02.51 | OluapPlayer | "ok NOW we show the trailer" |
21:03.03 | Cyrannian | "yelling!" |
21:03.06 | DrodoEmpire | Monet_semi: "Nazi helmet"? |
21:03.22 | Cyrannian | But the modern music is bleh |
21:03.43 | Monet_Semi | Tadaa, gameplay footage. |
21:03.52 | DrodoEmpire | You might mean the Stahlhelm, which was used by the Germans later in to WWI |

21:04.02 | DrodoEmpire | It was also the helmet used by Nazi Germany |
21:04.03 | OluapPlayer | That's what people want |
21:04.06 | Monet_Semi | Or in-engine cinematic, some of it did look like it was from a game camera |

21:05.30 | DrodoEmpire | Not at all |
21:05.31 | Monet_Semi | As IIRC my history the British tanks they showed weren't introduce until...1916? 1917? |
21:05.53 | DrodoEmpire | Closer to '17 |
21:05.53 | Cyrannian | So yeah, that was underwhelming |
21:05.54 | Wormy_ | it does look late war |
21:06.03 | Technobliterator | that was awful |
21:06.14 | OluapPlayer | That was shit |
21:06.17 | Technobliterator | I would be hyped for the Star Wars games |
21:06.17 | Cyrannian | Which is on tomorrow? |
21:06.19 | DrodoEmpire | They only played a major role very late into the war |
21:06.20 | Technobliterator | if it wasn't for |
21:06.21 | Technobliterator | you know |
21:06.28 | Technobliterator | the complete lack of anything substantive |
21:06.31 | Monet_Semi | DrodoEmpire: BAttle of the somme. |
21:06.35 | Technobliterator | "HI GUYS WE HAVE PEOPLE EMPLOYED" |
21:06.37 | Technobliterator | "PLEASE BE EXCITED" |
21:06.38 | OluapPlayer | "Wow! It's fucking nothing." |
21:06.43 | OluapPlayer | Bethesda's conference is next |
21:06.48 | OluapPlayer | NGH |
21:06.49 | Wormy_ | The only substansive game was the indie one |
21:06.58 | Cyrannian | Oh is Bethesda tonight? |
21:07.00 | OluapPlayer | I hate Bethesda as much as I hate EA |
21:07.04 | Monet_Semi | THe hell is this |

21:08.37 | Cyrannian | 03:00 AM is just after GoT, so I'll be up |
21:08.45 | OluapPlayer | Todd the Liar's conference is in 3 hours from now |

21:09.48 | Technobliterator | I may see it |
21:09.52 | Technobliterator | But I may just not bother |
21:10.06 | Technobliterator | I wonder if I can just sleep early now and wake up before it starts |
21:10.19 | Monet_Semi | The cynicism is strong with this year. |
21:10.36 | OluapPlayer | It exists for a reason |
21:10.59 | Monet_Semi | There's cynicism and then there's pessimism. |
21:11.23 | Technobliterator | C'mon, you just saw how awful that conference was |
21:11.27 | Cyrannian | I wonder if Elder Scrolls 6 will be announced |
21:11.36 | Technobliterator | why do you expect us to be excited for the next from a developer whose games we don't enjoy ._. |
21:12.23 | Monet_Semi | Well part of the shit was over EA sports. |
21:12.40 | DrodoEmpire | E3 is literally worse than hitler and stalin combined, Monet. |
21:12.52 | Cyrannian | https://twitter.com/Wario64/status/742098344713945088 - This is the only Star Wars thing that caught my eye |
21:12.56 | Monet_Semi | EA is perfectly within its rights to advertise sports games at its conferences. |
21:12.58 | OluapPlayer | At least Hitler and Stalin had cool mustaches |
21:13.00 | DrodoEmpire | That's the first thing people learn when they jump on to the bandwagon, don't you know? |
21:13.01 | DrodoEmpire | <.< |
21:13.12 | DrodoEmpire | >.> |
21:13.20 | Technobliterator | Or maybe it was a dreadful conference that showed no real gameplay at all |
21:13.36 | OluapPlayer | Not even the sports trailers had gameplay |
21:13.51 | Technobliterator | And maybe I'm just not a fan of Bethesda and therefore not expecting to enjoy their conference either |
21:14.38 | Technobliterator | I'm excited for the Sony conference, but my expectations for the rest of the event are now very low |
21:14.42 | OluapPlayer | Anyway, now I can shower |
21:14.46 | Cyrannian | hur same |
21:14.50 | Cyrannian | brb |
21:14.55 | Technobliterator | that was extremely bad |

21:15.44 | Technobliterator | or it's just |
21:15.49 | Technobliterator | seeing an awful conference |
21:15.53 | Technobliterator | And having the bar set extremely low |
21:16.16 | Monet_Semi | They set the bar low, which surely should make it easier to top EA's conference. |

21:16.22 | Monet_Semi | Which, historically, hasn't been hard. |
21:16.23 | DrodoEmpire | forcefully shoves Monet_Semi on to the bandwagon at gunpoint |
21:16.28 | DrodoEmpire | Conform! D:< |
21:16.45 | Technobliterator | DrodoEmpire, you don't have to be a condescending douchebag all the time |
21:17.08 | DrodoEmpire | Not trying to offend, just taking the piss out of it |
21:17.53 | Technobliterator | Yeah, you don't have to do that either |
21:18.36 | Monet_Semi | He wsa having fun. |
21:18.47 | DrodoEmpire | It isn't my fault your distraught and I'm trying to just poke a bit of fun |
21:18.51 | DrodoEmpire | *you're |
21:18.58 | DrodoEmpire | In any case I'm sorry |
21:19.17 | Technobliterator | It is my fault if you're purposefully being provocative with obnoxious sarcasm |
21:19.59 | DrodoEmpire | It was provocative *in your opinion* |
21:20.08 | DrodoEmpire | Until the point you decided to throw abuse I had no idea |
21:20.14 | DrodoEmpire | Or little idea anyway |
21:20.30 | DrodoEmpire | How about we just apologize and I'll shut up, or would you sooner yell at me a bit more? |
21:20.52 | Technobliterator | I mean |
21:20.56 | Technobliterator | there's having fun |
21:21.03 | Technobliterator | and then there's what you did |
21:21.08 | Technobliterator | but, sure, I guess? |
21:21.11 | DrodoEmpire | No no |
21:21.15 | DrodoEmpire | That's not a fucking apology |
21:21.26 | Technobliterator | What do you want me to apologise for? ?_? |
21:21.44 | DrodoEmpire | What did *I* do wrong? I joked around a bit at your expense and then you called me a condescending douchebag and pushed all the blame on to me |
21:22.02 | DrodoEmpire | You're being unreasonable and this isn't the first time this goddamn week either\ |
21:22.07 | Technobliterator | I don't know why you have to make all these arguments so drawn out |

21:47.31 | Technobliterator | and hopefully some SE stuff |
21:48.13 | OluapPlayer | PC conference is the only one I'm really looking forward to, because of the DoW 3 gameplay |
21:48.32 | Wormy_ | Do you think they will show more NMS footage? Or not because its coming out this year anyway |
21:49.15 | DrodoEmpire | I'm always eager to see new NMS stuff |
21:49.28 | OluapPlayer | Ok I was wrong, no Firaxis on the list |
21:50.02 | OluapPlayer | http://www.pcgamer.com/what-to-expect-from-the-pc-gaming-show-at-e3/ they made a list of who's gonna be there |

21:51.26 | Monet_Semi | Firaxis might be there |
21:51.42 | Imperios | Monet_Semi: Is Korra steampunk or dieselpunk? |
21:51.54 | DrodoEmpire | Tek0516: Ouch. How did that happen? |
21:52.10 | Monet_Semi | Imperios_: I haven't seen any signs of doing the Asian front. |

21:52.38 | Monet_Semi | Europe and the Middle East are the theatres I know of. |
21:53.12 | DrodoEmpire | I wonder if they're going to cover the Eastern front much |
21:54.27 | Monet_Semi | They might |
21:54.34 | DrodoEmpire | Or all twelve (!) battles of the Isonzo River |

21:58.21 | Wormy_away | Looks like its not a game set in Trenches. I bring this up because its the image of WWI in the eyes of many people in Northern and Western Europe, although there were many other fronts which it seems to depict |
21:59.51 | Monet_Semi | Indeed there were |
22:01.05 | Monet_Semi | You had soldiers and materials being pulled from North and and South Africa, South-East Asia and India |

22:26.20 | Imperios | Charles_Mac: Do you know what sort of symbols or emblems did the French use during the French Revolution and the Directorate? |
22:26.51 | Charles_Mac | The tricolor, the cocarde |
22:26.58 | Charles_Mac | Red white and blue everywhere |
22:27.10 | Imperios | The cocarde? |
22:27.31 | Charles_Mac | https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cocarde |
22:29.00 | Charles_Mac | Many incarnations attempted to recall ancient Rome. The senators of the directorate wore red togas and met in neo-classical architecture. The Consuls were a throwback to Roman consuls, and Napoleon is often depicted with the Imperial wreath |
22:29.17 | Imperios | So that circle thing that is painted on planes |
22:29.18 | Imperios | right |
22:29.28 | Charles_Mac | That's where roundels come from, yes |
22:29.53 | Charles_Mac | There's tons of symbolism you can talk about, delineating faction, affiliation, class, history, identity, history, legitimacy, power, nationhood, etc |
22:29.55 | Xho | Monet_Semi: Just did another 2 hours animaton for six seconds worth |
22:30.02 | Charles_Mac | What specifically would you like to know about? |
22:30.55 | DrodoEmpire | Such a piece of wear is known as a "cockade" in English I believe |
22:31.18 | DrodoEmpire | And the circle thing on planes are called roundels, and are related |
22:32.47 | Monet_Semi | Xho:2 Your method is probably faster than mine as you don't quite have render times |
22:32.54 | Xho | Not really no |
22:33.01 | Xho | Render times are for the video itself |
22:33.15 | Xho | For GMod it's just adding frames and frames |
22:33.19 | Monet_Semi | You're lucky. |
22:33.24 | Monet_Semi | Or maybe not |
22:33.29 | Xho | Mind you I am up to about 850 screenshots now |
22:34.02 | Monet_Semi | 6 seconds for me is about 175 frames. |
22:34.10 | Xho | 2much |
22:34.17 | Xho | Different mediums I guess |
22:34.22 | Xho | I am taking pictures of a game |
22:34.35 | Monet_Semi | Yeah its about FPS |
22:35.00 | Monet_Semi | no wait 6 seconds is 150 frames |
22:35.21 | Monet_Semi | I work on 25FPS |
22:35.57 | Monet_Semi | Although the computer poses and snaps for me, it's just each frame takes a couple of minutes to several minutes each to process. |
22:37.31 | Imperios | Charles_Mac: Mostly the symbols of the new republic, something that replaced the traditional coats of arms which, as I understand, France lacks even now |
22:39.33 | Charles_Mac | Alright, that makes sense. The Revolution sought to wipe away pretty much all of the symbolism of the monarchy, going as far as to rename streets, reinvent the calendar, and invent brand new symbolic forms. |
22:39.50 | Charles_Mac | The flag became ubiquitous not just as a standard, but as a symbol for the nation |
22:40.41 | Charles_Mac | as a battle standard* |
22:41.04 | Imperios | Right so there was no *pictorial* symbol, just the flag |
22:41.56 | Charles_Mac | There was the cocarde, but that was more a symbol of belonging to the nation, of being a citizen, rather than a symbol for the nation itself |
22:41.58 | Charles_Mac | gtg |
