japanese land barge master race

1998 toyota avalon. was owned by the family of my neighbors, an old guy. he died, and they sold his car to me. 68k miles, but in almost perfect shape except for some minor scratches on the rear bumper. meticulous OCD-level record keeping on maintenance, as well. a bit expensive ($4800), but well worth it.
V6 engine, leather seats, huge amounts of head and leg room in all 5 seats, ABS, front + side impact airbags, a go-faster sport ECT button, disc brakes on all 4 wheels, ice cold air condition, an absolutely enormous trunk, and 22-25ish mpg.
only problem with it is that it has absolutely loving enormous turning circle and the front suspension struts are noisy due to age.


definitely an improvement over my old econobox ford contour.


also my dad went through his late midlife crCIA and bought a roadster for the weekends, a 2007 honda s2000

crazy fast, revs to almost 9k rpm, 6 speed stick shift, fairly comfortable and roomy, handles like a go-kart. it goes absolutely insane once the vtec kicks in (yo)

Doesn't make my head hurt, you may want to see a doctor.

spoiler alert: people can be allergic to cologne. it's why doctors and nurses are NEVER supposed to wear the stuff.

when i volunteered at a hospital i was basically told anyone showing up wearing cologne or potent deodorant would be fired on the spot.

There shouldn't be, but the engines I've seen always spawn you at the viewport's current position.  Now if it could drop you automatically in a bot game or proper sigleplayer start, there would be no problem.  There is no use in just running around the world if you know what you're doing, and it just serves as a distraction.

you place your camera at where you would normally start the level and then do in-game mode. it'll play exactly like the game would.

4 cylinder cars with fart cans.
people blasting rap so loud that it makes my car shake - twenty feet away.
people with open microphones in teamspeak or especially on xbox live.

but that just doesn't work well in most cases.  It only works well if you're looking for errors.  Otherwise, you have to load up the whole thing and start from the beginning to properly test.  Frankly, it's distracting to have such quick access to the game.  I like how Portal 2's editor does it.  You can switch modes very quickly (unless you have to compile) and if you make any changes, you start from the beginning.  You can still tab back easily if you're comparing something's logic to how it actually behaves, but you still have to play through your level to see the changes.
that makes no sense. there's nothing stopping a player from placing themselves at the start of their map and running through it and playing through it normally.

In game testing sucks right now.  I would very much rather run the entire game each time I want to test.  You cannot test a map properly in a viewport.  Sure, you can check if you screwed up, but that isn't a problem when you're building it in the engine, that shouldn't happen like it does now.
crysis sandbox in-game testing literally runs the game inside the editor, and it can go full-screen. everything works almost exactly the same (except for some weird physics bugs in the editor). the best part is that when you press the button, you are instantly in-game. then you can press escape to go right back to editing.

this, for example, is in-game testing with the crysis sandbox.

Wow people are turning this petition thing into a joke
it's always been a joke. it was a good idea but when a petition does get a response it's basically a cookie cutter response saying "this is how it is and this is why and lol we ain't changing stuff"

please
increased map size limit
increased map size limit
increased map size limit
increased map size limit

 :panda:

more like an editor that isn't from 1998

hammer is terrible. compare it to something more modern like the crysis sandbox with its real-time lighting and in-game testing and hammer feels ancient.

Ahh. The continent of slightly intelligent apes never ceases to entertain me.
hate to break up your tribal train of thoughts, but not every country in africa is a backwater stuffhole



why would that not be allowed to cross the border? how would they even know they are gay in the first place? its not like they would pull up at the gate rubbing each others richards or something.

a country isn't going to let everyone cross, especially if relations aren't cordial. being gay has nothing to do with it - they may simply not let people across without bribes.

the homos can just leave uganda, no?
technically yes
but not everyone has the means to leave their country.

or for that matter, they can't tell if they will even be allowed across the border.

obama had already had an illegal war with uganda. 1 of 8 countries
http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/politics/2011/10/obama-sends-100-us-troops-to-uganda-to-combat-lords-resistance-army/

hes a record breaker for presidents starting wars for our country. but everyone at home has no clue its taking place
100 soldiers is nothing. a single u.s. military base in germany will have 40 times the amount of people.

i used to play this game as the vanu sovereignty, got up to TL22 ships (had TL32 tech but only TL22 resources)
i conquered the brony empire, captured their home planet "equestria", and renamed it "glue factory"

when i stopped playing for two weeks out of boredom some russians conquered my empire so i was like "meh"

I'm too used to them to use these weird controls.

I keep crashing all the time.
(crashing the vehicle, that is)
the aircraft controls are brilliant, all we need is the ability to change the axises.

ok i started playing as vanu

immediately noticed controls were terrible as stuff

then after noticing all the graphics tearing i got killed by OP nc snipers

(yes they are loving OP, took me 2 shots to kill one in a sniping battle and only took them 1 shot to kill me)

so i joined NC and destroyed 1 tank and 2 mossies in a reaver
what is wrong with the controls

nc sniper requires a headshot to kill, and it's a bolt action rifle that requires the player to unzoom in order to reload.
vs sniper is a piece of stuff but the tr one is pretty good.
