Games / Trackmania 2: Canyon Megathread

« on: November 26, 2012, 12:02:24 AM »

Trackmania canyon is a game in which you drive your car down an abandoned highway in the middle of a canyon and speeds in excess of 200 miles per hour. Some of the maps are a little crazy... The game is full of style and is practically overflowing with insane amounts of detail.

Somehow, Nadeo made pine trees fit in a desert.

tl;dr: Trackmania canyon is a dubstep in the middle of nowhere simulator.

« on: October 07, 2012, 09:32:27 PM »

The Chevy Suburban is possibly one of the coolest cars to ever have come into existance, and it's one of the largest SUVs there are, and they suck up gas, but they are some of the sturdiest cars in existance.

So, does anybody you know own a Chevy suburban?

Gallery / [Work In Progress] Asphault Desert - Update! - Wacky Pump Syndrome!

« on: August 15, 2012, 03:30:31 PM »

Asphault Desert

This is my current project I'm doing. I'm going to use the default bricks and colorset. I'm doing this because I have never been capable of doing a very large scale project, and because I think deserts are cool.
NOTES: I know that the ground texture looks not one bit like asphault, but the black texture looked ugly.
Also, "cement desert" doesn't sound as nice.

There are things I need to do:
Road, lots of road
Town
Rest Stops
Terrain (I need some help with this, considering I can't do terrain for stuff)

Feel free to rate x/10

Off Topic / My Sister's A Huge Bitch

« on: May 05, 2012, 01:24:09 PM »

Bluh bluh, huge bitch.

Today my sister asked my mom and dad if she could get Minecraft, so she needed some help with my Mom's credit card. For some reason, it wouldn't work so I told her it wouldn't work. And then she started whining and crying about how "I hate her", so then she walks upstairs and asks my mom if she can usemy dad's card. When dad got back home, I decided to help her again (I was forced to) but the payment also failed. So my dad thought it went through or something, and then I told her she had to wait an hour to see if she got it, so she started bitching and whining about that. Later she played blockland but it froze our computer (wtf?) somehow, and then she started bitching how "BLOCKLADN FROZE DA COMPOOTER JAKOB, NOW I HAZ TO SHUT IT DOWN BUT IF I DO I WONT HAS MINCERAFT", and then I told her it was fine.
So later she said "JAKOB MINCERAFT ISNT DOWNLODED, WTF I HATE YOU!!!1".

Discuss how much of a huge bitch my sister is.

Games / World of Tanks Megathread - Version 7.4.1! French Tanks is Slow.

« on: April 01, 2012, 09:26:49 AM »

- World of Tanks -

What is World of Tanks?

World of tanks is a game made by Wargaming.net, and is entirely free to play. In World of Tanks you drive your tank around, killing enemies to earn credits and EXP to buy new modules (engine, turret, gun, radio, suspension (tracks)) for your tank, and for other tanks. The game is set during the WWII period, and with no real campaign.

Game-modes.

World of Tanks has very few game modes, clan wars and a random battle. You can platoon with up to two other friends.

Tank Types

There's a variety of tanks for you to try out in WoT, and each all play differently.

• Light tanks: Light tanks are fast, agile tanks for scouting and support. Often times scout for Tank Destroyers and Self Propelled Guns (SPGS)
• Medium Tanks: Medium tanks are very important, as they are very good for support, assault, and scouting.
• Heavy Tanks: Heavy tanks are heavily armored, deadly tanks. Heavy tanks are mainly focused on assault, and often require support from medium tanks in order to be efficient.
• SPGs (Self Propelled Guns): This is a tank type for the patient people, as SPGs are incredibly deadly tanks with large guns. SPGs are generally innacurate and are very powerful, capable of one shot killing some heavy tanks. Playing an SPG efficiently will require lots of hiding.
• Tank Destroyers: Tank destroyers are deadly like SPGs, and have large guns and most of the time, low armor. Playing a Tank Destroyer requires lots of hiding, and when you do hide, you get a camo boost.

Tiers

• 1: This is the first tier you start out as, your tanks are free, and ammo is free.
• 2: The next tier, tanks are very cheap, and will earn you more money and EXP than the previous tier.
• 3: The third tier, which has more expensive tanks, but earn more money and EXP than tier 2
• 4: Fourth tier, which has tanks that cost upwards of 100,000 credits, an amount not easily earned. These tanks have very good profit.
• 5: This tier is much more expensive than tier 4, and require lots of grinding in order to earn the EXP for them, but they have good rewards for patience
• 6: Much more expensive than tiers 4 and 5, and these are very profitable tanks, with more tanks in this tier being heavy tanks than the previous tier.
• 7: This tier is much more expensive like the previous tier, and earns you more.
• 8: This tier is where the SPG tech tree stops, and one of the SPGs of this tier has a gun of 240 mm.
• 9: The tier before tier 10, with the Tank Destroyer tech tree ending here.
• 10: The last tier, with the tanks being the most expensive to research and purchase, and lots of grinding is nessicary to reach these tanks. Turning a profit from these tanks is almost impossible without purchasing gold for gold shells.

Current Version

The current version for WoT is 7.2, and introduces a second tank destroyer tech tree for america, which features tank destroyers with turrets.

Off Topic / Forum Game: Your mother is a trilobite, your father is an allosaurus...

« on: September 27, 2011, 05:14:56 PM »

Here's how it works:
You say what you think the above user is.
Example: Your mother is a/an (animal), your father is a/an (dinosaur), and your sister is a/an(dinosaur). But what you are is... (What you think above user is.)
Example: Your mother is a deer, your father is a plesiosaurus, and your sister is a pterodactyl. But you're a diseased sea creature never to-be.
Get creative.
I thought of "Your mother is a trilobite, your father is an allosaurus, and your sister is a T-rex. Only god knows what you are." myself.
And go.

Creativity / Marzipan Daily - Holy stuff, flying islands!

« on: September 20, 2011, 03:57:57 PM »

Marzipan Daily, a story I'm working on currently in Writing. Any crossing out or revision is posted.

Marzipan Daily

  Click click clack, I finished up part of my paper on the typewriter. Accursed things, no backspace unlike a computer. I picked up my coat and hat on the way out.
  I walked outside to be met with the cold chilly Marzipan air, as I put my brown leather ^trenchcoat on. I listened to the engines, ahuge fans keeping us in the air. Each blade half as long as a football field. Trying to find more iron is hard...
  I watched as an island drifted over the city. Some zeppelins flew overhead. I stared at the pagesplanes as they circled a zeppelin. Like honeybees defending a hive.
  "Hey, get movin'!" a man said. I continued walking home.
  When I opened the door all hell broke loose, my son banging a metal pot with a wooden spoon, and my daughter was turning up the TV while my son banged louder.
  "STOP!!" I yelled. I turned down the TV and confiscated the spoon and pot. I walked to the 1960's refridgerator, donning a chrome handle, and looked inside. I looked at all what was in the refridgerator.
  "Hmmm..." I adressed something.
  "Nah," I decided, instead reaching for a jar of jelly. I opened a cupboard(?) and grabbed some bread and a jar of peanut butter. I walked out of the kitchen with my sandwich when suddenly the somebody banged on the door. I set down my sandwich and walked to the door.
  "Who is it?" I asked through the door.
  "It's me, Chester!" announced a gruff voice. I nodded. I opened the door. Chester was your average easy-going man. He was wearing a grey coat, some old gloves, and a pair of jeans.
  "So, how are the kids?" he asked as he wiped his boots on the door mat.
  "Fine. But hecktic as ever," I said.
  "Hm," he nodded.
  "Want a sandwich?"
  "Eh-sure."
  "Ok." I replied as I made way towards the refridgerator.
  "So, how's it been at the Mines?" I asked, looking for the jelly.
  "Good, although the rock's ben pretty hard right now." He responded.
  "I have no idea how you like that job,"I said while making his sandwich.

More coming later (possibly) today!
