#70 who do you main in smash? in Other Games

Luigi in all of them. Tried Sonic in Brawl and Lucina in Sm4sh, but neither ticked (and fuck Brawl) and I'm back to Luigi even though I don't actively play anymore.

#32 Valve to introduce "Paid Mods" in Off Topic
yttriumthe amount of backlash that would come up if the refund process was removed, especially for a game like Skyrim where mod conflicts are so prevalent, would mean that it won't be removed. Valve will just start implementing DRM whenever possible.

That would imply that Valve cared about anything but money at this point. They get 75% of the cut, that's money they are losing. They are a business, they will not stand for that. The whole debacle with them and the UK/Euro law about game refunds proves this.

almost everything that's paid so far is cosmetic only, very few things contain actual content

Keywords there. You also forget that Skyrim "cosmetics" also have stats/rewrite in-game models. TF2 hats do nothing, and are new models added to the game after being reviewed by Valve.

#30 Valve to introduce "Paid Mods" in Off Topic
2cpeople can still release free stuff

now people can release paid stuff

theres now incentive to create things for you and the creator gets compensation. you get cool stuff and they have a new platform to make money doing something they enjoyed enough to do for free in the past but may have not had the time to justify bringing out a 'product grade' experience

regular cosmetic creators in valve games make 100k++++ a year. the opportunity is huge and the split is worthwhile because you get access to millions of customers with no advertizing.

ur basically seeing the beginning of source2 modding as an incentive based platform. there will be a lot of free custom games in dota2 for example. but there will likely be mini development teams that will attempt to create a large high quality mod with maintence updates for ~$1 under the expectation that most customers will sell a new crate or a couple blues to meet the cost if it comes down to it

Mods aren't official. Mods usually conflict with other mods. Mods usually use things from other mods. There is only a 24 hour refund period, so if a mod fucks you over or is ass and you have owned it for more than 24 hours, you just wasted money.

Here are some examples of what is happening/can happen right now:
-Maker of FNIS for Skyrim could essentially fuck everyone over right now if he wanted to
-Vice versa, currently people are fucking that guy over by not asking for permission for using his shit in their mods
-People are stealing mods from Nexus and putting them up on the Workshop. This has caused thousands of mods to disappear from Nexus to avoid people stealing them.
-If Mod A requires Mod B, then you need both, so you could essentially be forced to buy two mods just to use the one. This is very true for Skyrim, with FNIS and Unofficial patch being used by practically every big/medium mod.
-Person puts out incomplete mod and never completes it

If they wanted money, they could make a Patreon or have a paypal donation link, and people could be free to do so. But wait, this requires them to relist on Nexus, where someone could steal the mod. Why? Because steam removes donation links from the workshop. Didn't save the picture, but a modder did this (put the mod up for free and included a donation link) and was met with "{REMOVED LINK}".

Oh, and the refund thing probably won't last long because people are simply buying the mod, backing it up, then refunding it, so sooner or later, refunding won't be a thing, or modders won't make shit and now we have a ruined mod community.

Also hats are just models in a game that don't affect anything and don't conflict with anything, you cannot compare the two.

#36 Killing Floor 2 in Other Games

Game is fun as fuck, looks great, actually starting with your class weapon is great. Leveling is better, sprint is nice since it's actually balanced around weight and I think health.

#3 Star Wars Battlefront Reveal Trailer in Other Games

It's going to be trash. They got rid of space battles, Galactic Conquest, and Campaign. Oh, and the Clone Wars is also completely gone. Also day 1 DLC with pre-order weapon bonuses, and the notion that they are doing "aggressive DLC". No classes, only 20v20 (BF2 had bigger lobbies), AT-AT's and ships are "perks" or call-ins. Apparently RL's are pickups, too.

Just EA killing another series, nothing to see here.

#30 Halo Online in Other Games

And it's released.

http://pastebin.com/4JSDVZ3N

You'll need the evolve client to play: http://evolvehq.com/

And the evolve group: https://www.evolvehq.com/groups/halo-online

Also to add, you can probably use other services like Tuungle if you want, evolve is just what the devs know for certain works.

#12 hot pockets or poptart in The Dumpster

Poptarts can literally be eaten hot or cold and will taste good either way. They are true perfection.

Thanks for reminding me to pick some up, though.

Pretty sure that's outdated stuff.

Better link for it if you want to get it. Has links to a lot of stuff if you want to look into it, get a feel for it, etc. It's what I used.

#17 Halo Online in Other Games

There's a bunch of crazy shit being done with this, btw. They already have the lobby and main menu somewhat running. This thing is picking up fast and they are currently trying to get the game to respond to their (modders and people doing the eldorito project) server.

Forgot how neat the Halo modding community is.
