Thanks to those who I played with today! (Fat Pidgeon, Pirate PL and some other names I'm not recalling)

It's always fun to see how the 100-500 winners play. It was a closer game than it...

The RSTARS vs Mith series from today. I'm new to following the competitive scene, but they're the most entertaining matches of the East Quals, IMO.

I heard about game 1 and saw game 2 of that matchup. I'll avoid spoilers, but It's nice to see matches that aren't stomps.

A Nextbox utilizing Smart Glass well makes the Wii U even less appealing, doesn't it?

Also, STOP REQUIRING GOLD XBL ACCOUNTS TO STREAM NETFLIX. It's ridiculous, Microsoft. I understand that you...

It feels like Magnus has been in every TI3 game I've watched, and that's like 30 matches...

Did I mention that the enemy had 3 ranged, and one of them was Sniper? gg

I've had it in my solo queue parameters for a while and it seems to speed things up. Other than that, you never know...

Definitely more balanced than that one time All Random gave me an all melee team. :\

I didn't give a hoot before, but the Compendium courier thing got me interested after seeing the teams play. EG and Rox both had some really good games.

It's pretty much impossible to watch them...

I think they just noted that Goal 3 was unlocked and detailed the previous ones.

Goal 3 - $2,000,000* [UNLOCKED]
Receive a new HUD

Goal 4 - $2.2m
Receive a taunt item w/ new animation

Goal...

I thought it might be handy to have a thread just for patch notes. Whoever sees the notes first can feel free to contribute!

Update Notes - May 16, 2013


GAMEPLAY
- Elder Titan: Fixed...

Yeah. Also, if you're 100% new to the genre, I highly recommend starting with a friend who can talk you through a custom game with passive bots.

Short of that, I recommend starting on passive...

I generally think buying items is silly, and am really glad that all items are cosmetic, but I think I'm okay with Valve's approach here. Even if I'm not competitive, supporting the scene seems...

So, what's the deal with the International and the compendium item? When does the tourney actually end?

I obviously haven't been keeping up with it, but I wouldn't mind paying a few bucks to...

I don't know... I'm still running a CPU/Mobo/Ram from 2007. My newer GPU (2011) and SSD (2012) only add around $230 in hardware purchases since then. That's what... the price of 4 new $60 360 games?...

Exactly. Adobe's pricing has always been unrealistic for those new to the industry or freelancing on their own. Does anyone else notice that these promotional/upgrade CC prices of $19-29/mo will...

Sounds about right. I played my first public game with 4 RPSers with 200-500+ wins, and they were very patient with me. It took them several times reminding me to not get *any* last hits, as I had...

I've mostly been playing Dota 2 and revisiting Skyrim, so that may be telling.

I'm U.S. East, if that helps. I don't often play with the RPS crowd, though, because of the scheduling reasons you mentioned above. As for skill, I've maybe 160 hours and 20 wins. (my first 4...

I've gone back to Skyrim and finally finished the main quest.

Tribes: Ascend? It's not bad for a F2P FPS, and bonus nostalgia points if you're old enough to have played the original games in the...

I've never stepped foot on the isles and my father was adopted, so I guess burns on 50% of my body will suffice.

So, uh... we have our own sub-forum. That's neat.

I feel kind of bad that they made a Tribes Ascend one, considering it's since died off...

My last name is Welsh, but I am not Welsh by blood. Should I be worried? :p

I'll admit -- I chuckled.

No. Gaming is a hobby. As a result, convenience and lack of obligation (both time and monetary) are key.

An RPS paywall might be a boon for workplace productivity on my weaker days, though. :\

In leiu of saying "Don't play an MMO!", I'll second this recommendation.

The first Guild Wars was one of the finest online experiences I ever had.
