Dead Space 2, chapter 15. I can smell the end.

 

The Ripper was such a smart purchase. It has served as my primary weapon since mid-ch. 10 and my ammo stash has grown rapidly since then, I got over 500 plasma cutter ammo in the safe for example.

I actually had the Line cutter as my main weapon for everything but the big guys, I used the javelin for them. Fully upgraded for both, can really make life easy...

Javelin secondary fire upgrades and the special are what you really need to go for on it. (wider damage area, and a final explosion)

This torrent shows up as red on my end (I use uTorrent.). Is it possible to bypass this somehow, like adding more trackers to the torrent?

 

I think if it gets submitted to somewhere like Demonoid they have their own tracker, but I honestly don't really know.

Yes, just select the torrent in uTorrent, then change to the tracker tab. Right click and select Add Tracker. Replace everything with these:

That's the error we get from the forums...

So in your opinion the lack of ANY evidence of an almighty deity is equal to the larger amount of evidence that evolution is how humans have eventually populated the Earth. No matter how little a chance there is ( we'll say that there is a 0.000000000000000001% that any sort of theory relating to evolution is correct) the likeliness of an omnipotent god based on evidence is 0% therefore any percentage over 0% is infinitely liklier than creationism.

There is no proof either way, which leaves the percentage chance undefinable in both cases. Evolution is a faith just as much as any form of Christianity...

It's nice how you Creationists only use science when it could make it seem as though your correct, yet when shown any evidence that rejects it you mearly toss it away.

I could say the exact same about evolutionists.

The same thing happened when they found 4000 year old human fossils near where the Garden of Eden supposedly was, apparently this meant that the Garden of Eden existed, even though human skeletons are found everywhere.

4000 years old is about 2000 years after the flood... (or right at the time of the flood, I keep forgetting if it was at 2000BC or 4000BC) If anything it just says that people died in that location a long time ago. So what does that have to do with anything?

Creationism is an embarrasing relic from the past we'd be a lot better off without.

Well over a billion people disagree with you on that one. (I already posted my numbers supplier)

Just browsing whilst logged out in IE, I've not seen anything yet though.

 

What is it that happens exactly, do pages refuse to load or do you get some sort of error message? The site seemed to be a little slow last night for me with some pages not loading.

 

It's a shame, but some teething problems are to be expected with new forums and so on.

 

I expect (and hope) that they'll all be ironed out in the end.

I'll get a screenshot next time I get the error, then you can see it in it's entirety. So far it only happens when there are 10 or more people (guests and hidden included) browsing the forums.

I remember one dream from way back when I was like 8 years old... I was riding a yellow BMX bike, that could occasionally float, across various mirrors that were anywhere from about 3 feet square up to 30 foot square, all perfectly horizontal, all in a step patern of anywhere from 1 foot to 3 foot high gaps, never overlaping, black everywhere, a white glowing doorway (think "The Matrix") at the top of the stairs that had my Mom looking out of it asking what was keeping me... Oh, and there was a T-Rex chasing me... Then I slid off the edge of a mirror, and fell for a couple seconds...

When I woke, I was 2 feet off my bed, and I started falling... (I'm serious, it was not a dream part for that, a full 24 inches up, all body parts that far off the bed without anything lifting/supporting me, and still had the blanket draped over me)

I probly shouldn't tell you about one of the more recent ones I remember... Not suitable for under 18, but just as insane... lol

We'll find out soon, I suppose.

 

I would actually love one giant game world with no loading times because loading tends to break the flow of the game. If we at some point can achieve more smoother ways of loading the game world, then I think that would create a more intuitive experience.

Wouldn't be as hard as it seems if you can manage to get the engine to load 3 maps in one go, overlay them, and load/drop maps one at a time...

Load map 1 & 2. When you cross over into map 2, it loads map 3. As you cross into map 3 it unloads map 1, and loads map 4.

Rinse and repeat. Easy to script IMO if the engine could do it...

I would like to suggest forum spoiler tags, for people posting spoilers.

I second this.

Thirded.

I loved it. I only wish there was an actual ending.

I suspect that a good way for it to end is to reference it in the next episode of CP... Make it sound like an extremely weird series of coincidences and oddities that got them into that position, and out of it again...

Excellent as-is even without an ending IMO.

Does the fetus have the right to live in a woman's body with or without her permission? No. Why? Rights cannot infringe on other rights. To force a woman remain pregnant, means to force a woman to go against her reason, what she thinks is best for her, and what she can do with her own body. This violates her rights to life (and the nourishment thereof), liberty (to choose what she does for herself) and property (remember: her body is her property!). This is why a fetus does not have rights and only lives within a woman by her permission. Even if the fetus was a fully conscious human being, all of the above would still apply.

And for 99% of abortions, it is the consequence of the female's intentional actions that the baby is conceived. Why should a living human being be murdered because the "mother" couldn't keep her pants on?

I agree that people should take responsobility for their actions, but we all f*** up sometimes, and with a rape scenario it might even be against the woman's will.

If it gets rid of non-rape abortions, I'm willing to work from there... It's a good start anyways. Way better than the "kill it if you don't like it" mentality expressed by Michael Archer...

Moving to the afterlife now? Want me to make a thread about it?

So far I haven't seen any proof to actually disprove anything I submitted.

There is no supporting evidence that those bones belonged to the bipedal species imagined in the picture, nor any evidence to support it's age.

You submit a blind test to a C14 lab, one of a bone/tooth that has a physical record of dating back to say the 1000's, and a bone/tooth that was extracted between 200 and 500 years ago, and was preserved in the same fashion. Don't tell them anything about your "suspected" ages, and see if it's accurate. Don't forget to reduce it first so it's not as obvious which is older.

Show me evidence that there was no flood... The flood is generally accepted, if not necessarily in the bible's specific depiction. (eg, the Black Sea Deluge) It also would have a similar effect on the C14 as was described. Also, show me any evidence that disproves the historical parts of the bible, since the only evidence I've seen (even on TV) has been linked back to the bible as supporting it. (like the fact that Jesus was an actual living man, or that the Egyptians enslaved the Hebrew people who later escaped without significant fighting after several major catastrophes occurred)

I would like you to look at this for the definition of "theory": http://chemistry.about.com/od/chemistry101/a/lawtheory.htm (this was the only source I could find that was not written by a self-proclaimed evolutionist, which would obviously bias the source)

Essentially if enough people supported the THEORY of a flat world, it would be as accepted as the THEORY of evolution is today, and is just as likely to be disproven. (look at history, flat world theory was denying that there was any possibility of a round world and ridiculing the "nonbelievers" in almost the same way as evolutionists do to creationists today)

About DNA: I challenge you to find any evidence that one of the most complex information storage systems in existence proves evolution. That's kind of like saying "if I throw this box of random non-corrodible parts at a rock on Mars and wait a couple trillion years it'll eventually become a full computer system with Windows 7 and 2 pirated games installed". (if you're supporting the mainstream theory of evolution being taught in schools these days that is)

As for the gravity quip, it is the LAW of gravity, not the FACT of gravity. (The previous link also explains that difference)

Linking to Wiki is tacky, can't you find anything that was made by a non-anonymous person? How about going in and quoting directly from the source unlike Wiki? (they rarely take quotes in-context when dealing with things of this nature, just like *most* "Christians" that want to convert you)

Lastly, you said there's no doubt, but so far there is at least 1 other person who doesn't believe in evolution, and that outright disproves that point of view, as does the world population of Catholics. (16.68% of the world's population according to https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/fields/2122.html after adding up the percentages and populations)

There is not currently available any way to prove any method of origin, only several theories and hypothesis that fit the evidence we do have, and some that do not. Guess we'll have to wait for time travel to find out for sure...

In response to Axeldeath's post: Your definition of "faith" is wrong. Faith is believing in something that can not be proven or disproven using any of our senses.

As for evidence, nothing has disproven the existence of a "supreme being". All the "evidence" merely supports that there is no evidence either way, hence a matter of faith.

Logic suggests that evolution is so unlikely that it should be dismissed until further evidence is provided, even if there should be a period of no theories available on the subject, just so you don't accidentally get the "flat world theory" thing going again.

If you want to throw out creationism because of it's basis in religion, go ahead, but don't put something even more moronic in it's place just to fill the gaps.

Honestly, anarchy is the best form of government, but can never exist. Someone will form a group and try to be a dictator, or president, or something else along those lines...

Second best would be a form of dictatorship in which the dictator is chosen specifically because of his/her unwillingness to rule... Essentially the dictator would only be there to form a defense force if someone else tries to take over.

When are you going to make some in 1366x768 mode?!? (good work BTW)

"Story in a game is like story in a porn. It's expected to be there but it's not really that important."

- John Carmack, id Software.

 

When was that statement made? I have to disagree with it, I think whether a story is important or not in a game depends very much on what the game is.

Same for porn sometimes... lol

I suspect he made a weapon model for the flashlight, and a pose for the CP model that made it look like he was holding the flashlight.

I look forward to see the tram ride at the start, and the updated look of the first parts of the lab (Your journey to the test chamber.).

 

And Xen. They are making a really big deal out of it, keeping it a super-secret.

Those were the biggest parts for me too... Just a vid of the tram ride would be the ultimate teaser/trailer for the mod...

I'm up to 7.48GB... (plus 3.27GB on my 1-28 MP4 compatible torrent)

I've strangely enough never gotten this error yet.

Then you are quite lucky.

No, he's a Mod, it's the board's prioritizing methods... Mods, and Admins get 100% guaranteed connection at all costs. The settings for the number of users connected at once is probly set way too low, like 20 or so...

I'll look into that if it's like Tribes, or Tribes 2... 2 used to be my favorite game to mod. (and still beats out source engine by a long ways IMO)

If I were to rank the episodes, The Tunnel would be on the top.

I agree... lol
