!vgp So Star Trek Online went Free-to-Play yesterday. I'm wondering, is the game good?

!calgary !college MECH210 is an intesresting class. It consists primarily of me re-learning geometry and trig more or less from scratch. And also teaching myself physics from scratch. I think I've already done more studying for this course than I did for all of my courses combined last semester.

I bought Metal Gear Solid 4 the other day and SOME HOW...SOME...HOW...I GOT TO RAGING RAVEN! REMIND YOU THIS, I BUCKING SUCK AT STEALTH GAMES....AND I STILL MANAGE TO GET TO RAGING RAVEN ON SOLID NORMAL WITHOUT TAKING DAMAGE... HOW!!! !vgp

@ponyveteran !vgp Metal Gear isn't a stealth game. It's an action game with stealth elements. Like Deus Ex: HR, or Splinter Cell Conviction.
-
@puzzlemint Yeah but it's meant to be played as a stealth game, to me.
-
@ponyveteran @puzzlemint Actually, Konami WANTS people to sneak, but they knew some would rush the game. Me I beat all Metal Gear Solid games without being spotted or killing anyone.

!calgary About that thing in Edmonton next week; I'm interested in going, but it all depends on how much homework I have. If any of you drivers have room for one more, ask me on Friday.

@thatonepony The big problem with weapons in Mass Effect 1, though, is that they're all the same. Pick any three shotguns, the only difference between them is their stats. || Meanwhile, over in Mass Effect 2, compare the Eviscerator, the Scimitar, and the Claymore. They all handle completely differently; they're each better at certain things and worse at others, and they each compliment a different playstyle. The same is true of all of the other weapon types (though as a Vanguard main with a lot of experience, I think the differences between Shotguns are more pronounced). This adds an element of variety that ME1 desparately lacked. || While I don't agree with all of the changes they made in Mass Effect 2, I think the end result is a vast improvement in terms of gameplay. Shame I can't say the same for the story, but you can't win 'em all. !vgp

Hey members of !calgarybronies, I was doing inventory at the Cross Iron Mills Toys R Us today for work, and was assigned the aisle that included MLP. They have quite the selection, including all the mane 6, and four different Fluttershys, and the Cheerilee schoolhouse set. If you're looking for any of these they have a quite a bit and a wide assortment in stock.

@bubble0gumsenpai !calgary Have you ever seen any of the NON-Mane 6 blind bags in stock? I'm half convinced they're not even sold in Canada.
-
@puzzlemint I didn't see any, but they may have been in a different section. I don't think they're in Canada either, but I've been wrong before.
-
@puzzlemint really? I've been looking for fluttershy since october with no avail, but then again I never thought of Toys R Us. I hit every single WalMart in !Calgary though. Can't wait until next Payday.

-
!techponies God damn it, Google, what the hell are you doing? Why are all of your redesigns so terrible?
-
!calgarybronies Sounds like a bunch of bronies from around Alberta are talking about have a mini-meetup at CCEE when it rolls around. I'll keep ya'll posted on what's going on with that but that may be a new reason to tag along!

I see a loooooot of studying and revision in my near future. !calgary !college #anythingbutTrig
-
@puzzlemint Howdy puzzlemint. I've always liked your name
-
@puzzlemint hi-a! how you doin
-
-
!calgary !college Oh, hey, it's still there. Wonder how long it'll last. http://ur1.ca/7e926
-
!calgary Stopped by Video Game Trader on the way home from class. !vgp Guess who's about to get their proverbial balls rocked by Dark Souls.
-
!calgary !college Well, that was a decent first day of class. Then again, I only had two classes today. Might be a different story when Stats class starts up on Wednesday.
-
-
@puzzlemint Do your classes start tomorrow also? I don't want to go back!!!!
Monday, 09-Jan-12 05:37:22 UTC from web-
@vanillabelle Yup. Schedule's more packed than last semester, too. Only upshot is that class ends at 1 on Mondays.

!tes !vgp Does anyone else remember #Morrowind? And how there were only, like, three NPCs that the game considered to be "essential"; how, even though they were essential, the game would still let you kill them, and it would just give you a message saying "hey, that guy was really important, you might want to load an old save if you want to actually finish the main quest"; how it would let you keep playing even after killing them, and how there were still other ways to finish the main quest without them? Wasn't that just the most amazing thing ever, not to mention really fantastic game design? || In other news, I'm kind of annoyed with #Skyrim at the moment. Can't imagine why.
-
@puzzlemint Clicking my recently used #Morrowind tag, I saw this post. And I have to agree with you. Morrowind is best !TES game. Skyrim is good, but nowhere near Morrowind.
-
-
@thatonepony Lots of fun to be had, and certainly lots of technical improvements, but in my opinion, the second one was better overall !vgp

-
!calgarybronies Well, now that the #steam holiday sale is over, I still have some coupons and a game to get rid of. Specifically, these ones: http://oat.nu/53g4p || If anyone's interested in anything, let me know. || The game I can send through e-mail, but the coupons have to be sent through Steam's trading interface.

HALF-LIFE 2 IS AMAZING SO FAR !vgp

@puzzlemint I just got a few Half-Life items on Steam last week and I'm loving it so far

@macpony55 eeeyup. I loved every minute of that game

!calgarybronies I'm about to head out to celebrate the new years, so I hope you all have a great night and a happy new years!!! @puzzlemint Hope your house party/meet goes well!

@vanillabelle Well, the PS3 sort of crapped out on us towards the end but it was good while it lasted. Thanks again to those who came! !calgary

!techponies Thinking of picking up a small (60-80GB) SSD to run a couple games off of. That, combined with the reasonable amount of storage space on my two remaining slooooooooow HDDs should tide me over until I can afford something with a little more breathing room. || Never had an SSD before, and it looks like my usual hard drive tactic of "get a WD/Seagate" isn't going to work very well. Anypony have any recommendations, or advice on what to look for? || Do keep in mind that I'm a starving college student, so budget is a big issue; also, I'm Canadian, so I'd prefer something from NCIX or DirectCanada; newegg.ca and tigerdirect.ca are also acceptable.
-
@ponydude2143 what doesn't ?
-
@ponydude2143 And nopony got mad! Astra does stuff like that from time to time, and she's more or less universally liked.
-
@ponydude2143 Report them to me next time. I'll start handing out rulings.

!calgarybronies Once again, since the regular meetup is cancelled this weekend, I'm hosting a mini-meetup at my house. It'll be the same time as a regular meetup (5-ish to 9-ish), so anyone who's interested is welcome, even if you can only stay for a while. Drop me a line at puzzledmint@gmail.com for directions if you feel like stopping by.
-
!calgary Okay, so my main hard drive with all my programs and a lot of my other stuff on it just up and died with absolutely zero warning, so that's wonderful.
Saturday, 31-Dec-11 04:12:08 UTC from web-
@eaglehooves Sadly, I've had enough hard drives die on me that I already know pretty much every recovery trick in the book. This one's pretty well fried. It's just a huge pain in the papayas because it had all my programs, all my games (including the two-dozen-or-so new ones I'd just finished downloading from the Steam holiday sale), and all of my recent downloads that I hadn't had a chance to sort yet.
-
@puzzlemint That sucks. At least you know what you're doing, though. I've tried to help some fairly clueless people through it, and that taxes my sanity.

@puzzlemint Sucks all the same though. If you need a hand getting certain things replaced I may be able to help some.

So... pony party at my place? || Since the meetup this week is off due to @darcyblue having other new year's plans, and since I just got back from BC and DON'T have other new year's plans, if any other !calgarybronies have nothing to do on the 31st, you're welcome to come to my place and have a mini-meetup. || I have a decent-sized basement room with a 42-inch TV to watch ponies on. And a whole bag of chips. ... we might have to order pizza. || Anyhow, if anyone's interested, fire me an e-mail at puzzledmint@gmail.com, so I can give directions, and also get a sense of how many people might show up. || Keep in mind that I live in the north-ish. Not far north -- just off centre street on 34th ave -- but anyone who lives down south may want to keep the distance in mind. And for anyone who takes transit, you can just take the #3 from downtown; there's a stop not 4 blocks away.
-
@puzzlemint You have no idea how incredibly tempting that is. I'll have to see what's going on and if I can figure out where that is, but I'll fire you an email once I learn things.

!calgarybronies When is the next meet up? and where is it?
Tuesday, 27-Dec-11 23:36:49 UTC from web-
@puzzlemint !calgary i dunno. every year i go out with my friends to there party. it wouldnt be right if i didnt come over. also im shure that sentry box is closed come new years anyways.
-
@darcyblue !calgarybronies So there is no meet up on the 31st?
-
!vgp Oh, and before I forget, Bastion is on sale for $5 on Steam today. Buy it.
Monday, 26-Dec-11 21:30:40 UTC from web- Cerulean Lulamoon-Spark repeated this.
-
!calgary Well, I'm headed to Cherry Lane in about 30-45 minutes for a boxing day pony-sweep.
-
@puzzlemint Sorry last minute call and I ended up in Kelowna. Likely not back till 1 or 2. !calgary
-
@wanderingbrony !calgary 'sokay, wasn't much to see anyways. If you raid the Superstore while you're up there, try to leave a Lulu Luck for me to grab tomorrow.
-
-
@wanderingbrony !calgary As it turns out, grandma needs to do some grocery shopping tomorrow, so I'll be going to Cherry Lane regardless. No idea when, though.
