This next patch is going to be the latest character/ship wipe but not the last world wipe.
Still good enough.

It depends on yourself.
It depends on your teachers.
It depends on your school.
It depends on your city.
It depends on your country.

Or War Thunder.
Or HAWX 2 (if anyone ever plays that anymore)
Or World of Warplanes.
Or Microsoft Flight games.
Or any plane-flying games on the market.
A certain Star Wars was fun to play with a Joystick.

Also it works for certain games to remap it as your solely-left-hand for FPS.
I.e. using the joystick for movement and any keyboard actions (since all buttons are conveniently placed on the fingers and all) while using mouse to aim. < This actually sounds better than I thought.

Or TF2 Keys
and then cry when you don't get anything good

TF2 Keys can be used for purchaes on trading sites even lower than sale prices during sales.
Theorethically with $100 you could instead just buy a ton of Tf2 keys and trade them for games and you would get more than you would get games normally.
Crates is not the only thing they are used for.
Example: Reddit's /r/steamgameswap has lots of trading posts for TF2 Keys.

Two things:

 * Why the hell are people saying it would be hard?
 * Why the hell would you want to use Unity?

Perhaps because Unity games can also be played in browser.
Though don't ask me why would anyone want to do that.

Heck, why don't we use Havok Engine or CryEngine 3?

oh man I completely forgot about TFC
to make bronze I did it with 7 copper and 3 tin, I could be wrong but it was around those numbers

I already made bronze with tiny ones you find from small rocks, but I seem to have trouble making it with the ores you get from veins.
Figured it out.
The normal ones have 25 units output.
The tiny ones have 10 units output.
I just need to do the math to see how much I need if I have normal copper and tiny bronze.
Since I have 48 normal copper that's 1200 units, divided by 10 that's 120. Since tiny ones have 10 output, divide by 10 again. I need 12 tiny tin ores and 48 normal copper ores in order to max out a bronze at 10%. But that yields 1320 units. Theorethically to have a straight 1300 so I can free up the vessel and also have a good ceramic molds output (13 full bars) I need to decrease tin to 10. The percentage is 8-12% tin in composition so in return 10 tin = 100 units.
100 units out of 1200 is 8.3%.
Ta-da!
48 (16x3stacks) normal copper ore with 10 tin ore will yield the most efficient output.
But what if I can pump it to 1400?
That means I need 200 units, that's 20 tin.
But 200 out of 1200 is 16.67%, so that won't work.
Should've been increased to 8-17% but whatever, 1300 units of Bronze per vessel is good.


Apparently I was wrong
While making perfect sense, it seems that with 10 tiny tin ores it does not work :/

While playing TerraFirmaCraft I found my first ore vein!
It was Tetrahedrite something (copper basically), but I didn't expect it's amount to be able to break my fully-durable copper pickaxe with the vein itself bigger than 6 default biggest copper veins.
Like really, jesus christ.
I have 23stacks (*16) of copper ore now and there still is a lot of ore there, I just don't have a pickaxe anymore.

Does anyone know if you are able to smelt "full" (not small) tetrahedite/copper with small tin? I just tried in the desiganted %s but it didn't work.
I put 48 copper ores and 5 small tin ores.
I suppose it's because the tin is small, but is there any way to equal the amount to not-small?

No you don't. That's a gross waste of money.

Talk for yourself.
For anyone who use their desktop more than to play Minecraft it's a good thing to have, as long as the PC also handles it well.
For anyone who uses their PC as a workstation it's an exceptionally good thing to have.

lol i just use adblock
forget people who try to make money off ads

Actually I think the unique visitor staying 5 seconds is all it counts. You can have adblock and still give them money actually. Perhaps.
It's per visitor, not per click.

But yeah I also use adblock because forget ads.
Though.., I hope you don't mean Badspot included, I mean, there is an ad on every topic if you are not logged in.

Insurgency the whole game (still on the Source Engine though) is a lot better.

But not free.
