Quarere Cygnus (OOC|Sci-fi|CLOSED)

[Charlia]

So I'm returning to XCOM for everybody's favorite past time in the OOC, besides talking about Ajax and polls.

Who wants their characters to be a certain class?

*half-closes eyes*


What even is XCOM? You all talk about it, but I don't know what it is.

It's a turn based tactical game best described as a game of poker with aliens and guns.
To win you need to know the odds and how to turn the odds in your favor.

Make Shino or Rostam.
Shino a sniper and Rostam the bloke that has the shotgun.

Sounds like the Hunger Games, that last part does.

Google is your friend...

What would Google tell me? 'A turn-based strategy game about blah blah blah'? Abserdia explains it better, and in a more entertaining fashion. Why would I want Google?

Because Google would show you what it is instead of tell you... Because, to be truthful, Abserdia's explanation is so barebones that it could also be used to describe any number of sci-fi TBSG.

Those are assaults, and they're so useful when the opportunity arises.

Well, it's as intense as the Hunger Games.

Also, the classes are these:

Support: The Medic.
Assault: The Bloke with the Shotgun (and usually a cool cowboy hat when I'm playing)
Sniper: The... Sniper.
Heavy: Demolitions and Heavy Weapons Expert.

Then there are 2 other classes you can gain later on.

MEC Trooper: The Mech. You gain this much earlier than the next class.
Psionics Soldier: Mind control and all that.

Pretty much, yeah. But XCOM is the only important one.
Don't deny it.

Can't stand up to all the good sci-fi RTS though. That's the best...

It is really good. I was thinking more along the lines of that Warhammer 40k game, but yeah...

Stellaris is bae.

I bet it is. But my PC isn't.

In XCOM? Yeah, the randomness is kinda dumb.
Unless you're just talking about classes in general.

It's actually really well optimized.

My laptop can play it pretty well with some lag spikes every now and again, and it's like five years old or something.

If you can play CK2, or one of the more modern XCOM games, you can play Stellaris.

I don't care.

Also, I've been lurking, not really sure what to do

In XCOM.

Classes in Battlefield made alot more sense, and medal of honor warfighter made even more sense

Well, that's probably because you can choose the classes.

Also, sorry if my recent post is crappy. Just trying to get one more post out before I go to bed.

You could maybe talk with Callum.

[Vulnier]

Hey Abserdia, on the question of AI, are they common?

[Abserdia]

Hey Abserdia, on the question of AI, are they common?

AI?
Well, yeah. I mean, not super intelligent AI similar to Alex, mainly because of the huge cost of having so many for so many people.
But they're usually smart enough for somewhat advanced logic problems and a conversation.

In that case, my dudes story is ok. Thanks for the info.

[Abserdia]

By the way, Alex is having a pretty awesome streak. Let's see if he'll keep it up with the next poll sometime tomorrow night.

BTW, got a post in the works.

Alright. Go post that post.

Also, I'm deciding on what to do.
Maybe "Most likely pair to make a general nuisance of themselves when drunk?"
That would be a good one.

That would be a good one.

I remember a story where a time-traveling girl with a dark and troubled past accidentally got herself drunk... when someone asked what she was doing she said 'I'm drowning my sorrows', and then went on a rant about how she could have been in the forties or fifties or sixties, maybe seventies, all sorts of great times, and how she hated existentialism almost as much as she hated herself, and all that... it was great. It was really great. XD Angst is great for making a nuisance of yourself when you're drunk.


Or how about that one guy who was such a sad drunk that when he saw a burnt-out streetlight he said 'It's so sad that it can't keep the streets lit up anymore, what will it do now?'

Indeed, though I do wonder what the options would be.

Also, is anything being interfered with my post?

Nope, not at all.

The usual. Charlotte and Ajax, for example.
I'm just going to throw in anything I'd call interesting.
Laelynn and Stanley Kubrick? Yep. Throw it in.

I'm so tired and I'm reading the TV Tropes article for 2001, by the way.
