I remember that. I won my first fall ball game thanks to the golden egg, it was us: 13 and the enemy: something lower than 10. Doesn't matter, they lost and we won.
And wtf how'd you get 2 golden eggs. You are so (un)lucky!
HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!! I...I...I have no words to say. This is the most unexpected death of a celebrity since Kobe Bryant, in 2020 no less. This is just....heartbreaking and sad, especially at his age. He was still pretty young and I never knew he had cancer. I wish his whole family my condolences.
just learned about this a few minutes ago. absolutely heartbroken. to think he inspired millions of people and tried to bring as much love and joy as he could while he was silently suffering. what a genuine fucking legend. rest in peace, king.
Horrible. I loved Boseman as an actor. 4 years of cancer. I can't imagine how hard that was for him. And yet, he brought some wonderful films. Maybe we'll see each other in the next life. RIP.
Absolutely heartbreaking. He's had colon cancer for the past 4 years and became a cultural icon and a role model for so many people both young and old.
This is awful. Chadwick really seemed to be building up a great career. And he was only 43, shit that's way way too soon.
The fact that he's been battling this since 2016 means he must have found out sometime after shooting Captain America: Civil War. Then to undergo treatment while juggling his solo Black Panther film and the two Avengers films basically right after? That's some strong will.
It is with a heavy heart that I tell you all that I am leaving the forums and many other platforms. This is for my own safety and my own mental health, in the past few weeks, my mind has been getting more messed up. This is for the best.
I wish you all the best of your lives, I can't thank you all enough for the amounts of chances you all gave me and how supportive you guys are/were even when I was being an ass. It really meant a lot to me, and to this day, it definitely does. I want to thank you all for the times you all made me feel better. You all are such an amazing bunch. And I'll miss talking to you all.

A couple of years ago, Shelly Shenoy mentioned in an interview that she had taken a picture of herself and Jeff Schine recording a scene from ANF involving looks at early versions of their characters. She mentioned having it on Instagram and eventually putting it on Twitter--has anyone seen those image or know how to find it?

A neat behind the scenes look at Twelve Minutes. It's shaping up to be a very ambitious game, I really hope they manage to pull it off. Also it feels weird hearing Daisy Ridley with an American accent after being so used to her English accent lol.
Aw, that's looking better and better the more I see it! It's pretty neat to have such big actors be the voices behind this project.
It's great that they showed off a bit of Dafoe's dialogue differences for... whatever that bit is for. (Dialogue maybe? Choosing different actions?) It's always great whenever a time-loop film or game adds small differences like that, just to make each loop sound a bit new.
I saw it on the developer's twitter a few months ago, showing off all the possible positions in the room your character can get thrown to the ground in some scene, it was pretty cool. Lemme see if I can find it...
EDIT: Haven't found it yet. But here's an amazing picture from a blog post of their huge "script flowchart" they had to cut down and figure out how to best organize when getting to record it.

You would need PlayStation plus to play it on Ps4. But If you have it you will be able to get Fall Guys for free.
If you start it I would recommend that you move slowly though the game. So many players try to knock you down or bump you that you need to move at a steady place to move through a crowd. And any exploits that you can think of, do them. Everyone else is doing the same thing so you shouldn't feel bad for doing it.
Lol I just use the one built into my laptop. What can I say? It just works.
So I don't think I can help ya with finding a good external camera. Good luck though.
Also, I don't think I've mentioned it yet, but my next school year doesn't start in September, it starts in January 2021.
Back in May the program decided that while the school itself might open in September with online/hybrid classes, we in the Theatre program would not. (and we all liked that decision, because those last few weeks of school in quarantine just sucked. So many projects had to be postponed until we return in the Fall, since it's not ideal or even possible in some situations through a video chat.)
Unfortunately this means our Year 2 and Year 3 are essentially going to be one big marathon. We're going to start again in January, hopefully, go all the way through the summer to then get back on track for Year 3 in September '21.
So I've been playing Control for the past few days and I've been really enjoying it. The gameplay feels good, the telepathy is very fun to use and the levitating adds a really nice vertical aspect to combat and movement, the writing and tone has this constant underlying weirdness to it that I really like, almost every single character is a huge weirdo and the atmosphere in general is just incredible. It really wears its heavy SCP inspirations on its sleeve and I love it for that.
However.
This game has some of the worst boss fights I've played in a long while. The problem isn't that they're hard, in fact their patterns are quite easy to learn. The problem is that they're absolute bullshit. Even with all the health upgrades available, every single one of them has the ability to two/three shot you. It doesn't help that to raise the stakes they spawn a fuck ton of enemies to distract you, so not only are you dodging the bosses hard ass hitting attacks, but you also now have to dodge 20 enemies, most of whom will explode upon death, so you also have to avoid that. The boss fights are just not fun to me, which is an absolute shame since I've been enjoying pretty much every other aspect of the game.
PC has a hacker problem, so I'd say PS4. But if you're using a base model, then playing on PC is worth considering, as the input lag and framerate are atrocious.
I’m sticking with Hyundai. I’ve owned 2 Hyundai’s (a Tucson and an Elantra GT), and both have been reliable, dependable, and well built. The Tucson protected me when I was in an accident around the time I first got my license, and the Elantra GT, my current car, is 7 years at 150,000 miles, but still rides well and doesn’t have any huge problems, but it’s age is starting to show and I don’t want to put $2000-$3000 into a car that won’t last another year. I like Ford, but the Fusion looks like crap, and you will never catch me in a Chevy. I did look at some Honda’s, some Nissan’s, and even a couple Mazda’s, but I just like the Hyundai’s. Found a nice, 2017 Elantra SE with 12,000 miles, no accidents, one owner, most of the features I want (blind spot detectors, rear camera, etc.) at about $14,500. Now I just got to figure out how that will impact my insurance payments.

more Fall Guys stuff
The right joystick is very important when it comes to getting the right angle on things. It can act like a second camera movement tool. It can help to make tight corners when a character is in persuit and help you slip past difficult obstacles.
Your stability cone is actually pretty stable when hit from the back and the front, and does help with fall recovery. Your character can deliver the most force from forward motion when partnered with stable motion. Very useful in Fall Ball and can be used on Hoarders but is best used in combo succession.
Flicking your left joystick before a jump and before landing is another technique to quickly recover from a fall. This can also help you set your stability momentarily to move an obstacle or to break out of someones grip.
There is even a move you can do around this that I like to call 'stability swipe' where the sticks both swing side to side rapidly while still maintaining slow movement that allows you to break up tight groups of people, as well as knock off the occasional person. Almost like swinging an invisible bat.
I feel so bad. My team got the golden egg and beat a game of fall ball 21-0. I mean at least they got to see it can be done, but that has got to hurt you on the inside for a while.

👁____👁 I'm bored

Rest in power, Chadwick. And again, F2020.
His family posted a message on twitter
That's fucking terrible. Im not really one to go around say "fuck this year" but honestly fuck this year.
World's a complete mess, pandemic, inspiring people dying left and right. Its really at the point none of it even feels real.
RIP Chadwick.
I had no idea it was that bad. That sucks. Rest in peace.
Cuckmann is infallible!
Lucky son of a--
This requires more practice
May his friends in family rest in peace.
He must've bribed the devs to get such an impossible trophy. Typical Neil...

Good luck, mate. You'll need it.
Goodbye Deku,
May your next years be better than this one. And never come anywhere close. And good luck in finding some calmness in the rest of this year.
Oh, it's a final double post to you. Well, peace.
Sad to see you go but your own health should be your number one priority.
May your future be brighter than the present.

I am working on a special rant compilation video but the topic will be a movie that everyone in the entire earth agrees it's completely garbage.
EDIT: You wanna guess? Be my guest.
Dang I was thinking of creating a telltale meme with this same format. Good job tho
Take care of yourself Deku and I hope the best for you

also fluid simulations (probably stab wound?)
I'm thinking of buying fall guys. Would you guys recommend I get it on the PS4 or Steam? Do I need PS+ to play online on the PS4? Thanks in advance

Car shopping, is there a worse type of shopping?
As if student loans weren't bad enough, I get to add car payments on top of it now. So this is what being an adult is like? I want to go back.

Ended up getting it on PC since I don't subscribe to PS+ all year round! Kinda regret it... this is a great game to bring to a party.
Also yeah, I've already found a couple of hackers in some finals
. Otherwise, loving the game!
It's a used car from CarMax, there is no haggling unfortunately.
