Off Topic / Android phone help pls

« on: October 04, 2015, 06:36:08 AM »

The top right hand corner of my phone is cracked. A lot of apps use this space for 'post photo/status/message'

Any apps I can download which can zoom in on the screen or give me the ability to pull it around? I've tried rotating my phone and some apps don't have a rotation thing. Also tried the triple tap feature on the phone and the zoom only zooms into the page rather than the header. Really getting annoying now.
Thanks.

Games / I don't want to go back, not back to that game...

« on: September 06, 2015, 04:53:08 PM »

Guys, I just watched a recommended video on youtube.. it was horrible.
'Guy returns to world of warcraft'
Its not the video that was horrible, it's the feeling of missing world of warcraft. I want to go back but I can't.

Any games similar to world of warcraft aside from the MMORPG copys : TLOTRO, ESO, Heros and Villagers, Neverwinter etc..
I loved so many things about that game. No game will ever be as good as WoW + Burning Crusade, after that the game was dead.

Modification Help / Mini Empires Role Playing Game (Idea)

« on: September 01, 2015, 12:27:31 PM »

A Mini Empire Idea
Thought about this for ages, a mod which makes mini empires work. Keeping it fresh and light would be perfect. Idea is available for anyone who'd want to use it.

Basic Concept
Every time a point is scored, the player/team gains 1 brick to build. When an enemy is killed you gain 1 brick. When a resource is mined, you gain 1 brick.
Resources would be custom bricks, where if they were attached to the HQ with pipeline bricks, would 'mine'. (+1 brick every 2 mins)

Battles
You'd be able to place down a playerplate/vehicleplate where you'd build ontop of. When you activate the bottom plate, you'd be able to pick it up (makes the brick and everything built onto it disappear), which can then be placed down (when you activate on a new stud near it)
the playerplate/vehicleplate's will cost like 10 bricks (maybe assign an xp system to the plate to make the vehicle's attack better) The brick would also have automatically created events assigned to it, so you can edit the name of the unit.
If two units stand next to each other and one of the owner chooses (battle), a battle will begin where the server will make rolls, and use the assigned unit's hp/damage system. If units are next to each other, their stats will be added up and joined into the roll. The winner will receive bricks, the losers bricks will be destroyed.

Buildings
To build anything, you need to have a player on the stud next to where you want to build. You start off with two units and some points for building.
To create units you'll have to build a barracks. To create vehicles you'll have to build a factory. To mine resources you'll have to make a harvester. All the pipelines will be linked to the harvester. (increases max bricks with more stations linked)

Bricks
Resources - This'd be a 1x1f brick (in either tree or rock form, will only affect aesthetics of custom model brick) placed by the host, does nothing until mined. never is destroyed.
Pipelines - This will be a 1x1f pipe brick (Foreward brick, corner brick, 3 way brick, 4 way brick)
PlayerPlate - a 1x1f what can be built upon, allows to easily move a soldier unit. (can carry xp which increases damage/hp)
VehiclePlate - 1x2, 1x3, 1x4, 2x2, 2x3, 2x4, 2x5, 2x6 what can be built upon, allows to easily move a vehicle unit. (can carry xp which increases damage/hp)
Barracks - a 1x1f brick which can be built upon. if you put two plates next to each other, they power merge.
Factory - a 1x1f brick which can be built upon. if you put two plates next to each other, they power merge.
Harvester - a 1x1f brick which can be built upon. if you put two plates next to each other, they power merge.


If this is created, please keep the system simple and easy to use. I'm only suggesting this because I don't have time to get help from someone to make it.

Ping is ---
Have always been able to host a server, but I haven't made one in a year, tried to today and it didn't work. Any updates which have changed things? Only thing I've done to my computer/internet is upgraded the motherboard and CPU.

Games / GRAV - FPS Survival with an MMO twist

« on: August 06, 2015, 05:43:46 AM »

In GRAV players will explore massive procedurally generated worlds and have endless adventures in a hostile universe. They will discover planets constructed with a unique variation of oceans, mountains, plains, and canyons.

Each new world is populated by many different plants, animals, and mineable elements. Players can explore the massive environment above ground or journey deep into one of the hundreds of dungeons each with their own collection of assorted bounties. Whether playing alone, or with a group, players will need to delve deep into GRAV’s richly populated worlds to collect and harvest resources. Rich mineral deposits and natural occurring elements allow players to build epic bases complete with automated defenses and traps. In addition, players can craft weapons, armor, and other equipment to help them survive in a dangerous universe.

Notes from myself:
This game is actually really entertaining and has MANY hours of play, I think I've done about 10 hours and I'm not even a 1/4 way through.
If you're a fan of World of Warcraft, Borderlands or ARK, you'd love this. Really nice MMO style system that is unlike any survival games of its time. It's been in development for quite some time and still is in early access but updates are frequent and massive. Well worth picking up if you like the three games I mentioned.
Soundtrack is awesome, the scenery is just amazing and it is definitely worth a buy.
