Desktop skin (mouse pad) finally came. Why Gamestop shipped it almost a week later I will never know, but it is REAL slick, like slightly slicker than a Ratpad if you ever owned one of those. It's smaller than my Xtrac Ripper but still larger than the standard cloth ones you find everywhere. It doesn't have a rubber bottom like you would think. It's got a white bottom. Came with some stickers and a certificate of authenticity (what.)

That's because as powerful as Star Wars shields may be, the weapons on the ships are even more powerful (and plentiful).
The ships of Star Trek are like armored knights, doing battle at close range with relatively weak weapons and strong armor.
The ships of Star Wars are more like a modern soldiers, with light armor and high mobility but powerful long range weapons. The exceptions are tanks and ships (heavy cap ships like a star destroyer), which have heavy armor but are still vulnerable to man-portable anti-armor weapons. Yet despite this vulnerability they are still fierce weapons because of their amazing offensive power and difficulty to kill.
Regardless of any technobabble about the kind of weapon being used being ineffective, if you take the numbers from the books then a single shot from one of the 12 heavy guns mounted on a Imperial troop transport will impart 836 billion GJ onto the shields of the Enterprise-D...which is 209x more than the Enterprise's reactor makes in a whole second in a single instant. That energy has to be dissipated somehow. To put it another way, it would be equivalent to hitting the enterprise with 3125 photon torpedoes in the same spot...except that the troop transport has 12 of them and can fire many times a minute.

This isn't to put Star Trek down, it's a great series.
The point is that Star Wars and Star Trek are clearly at very different tech levels and Star Wars happens to be the one that is way ahead.
Though frankly they're both unrealistic. The real future is going to be both much weirder and much more boring.

>>	Jaybonaut 10/08/22(Sun)17:04 No.1699 Yeah I agree. It's kinda weird they didn't discuss the Enterprise E or the Genesis which could be used to destroy planets. I suppose one could argue the realistic vision of Trek vs Lucas' goofiness. Now the real question: Jar Jar vs Neelix. lol

>>	Rowch 10/08/23(Mon)00:45 No.1706 We would get farther banging our head against a wall then continue the pointless Star Wars vs Star Trek. Star Wars is better IMO and I think Star Trek is one of the dumbest shows I have ever watched.

DLC for Left for Dead 1 and 2
http://www.pcgamer.com/2010/08/21/interview-valve-on-their-new-left-4-dead-dlc/
On October 5th, Valve will release a new campaign for both Left 4 Dead 1 and Left 4 Dead 2. It’s The Sacrifice, a story which bridges the gap between the two games, and explains the mysterious events of previous downloadable campaign The Passing.
As a special treat for Left 4 Dead 2 owners, they’ve also carried the original game’s No Mercy campaign across to Left 4 Dead 2.

>>	Matt 10/08/22(Sun)15:51 No.1695 >>1682 Just because I don't post everything about L4D every 5 seconds doesn't mean I don't like the game, as well as other people who read this board.

Jaybonaut 10/08/22(Sun)16:59 No.1697

>>1695 interesting how you didn't deny the attack was personal. I didn't care for L4D and I am not alone. It wasn't meant to upset anyone when I posted 'yawn' as it was meant to jive with the 'yay' for this: http://www.city17chan.com/res/1654.html so let's just drop it. I won't slam L4D and you can continue ignoring my CoH enjoyment.

>>	Matt 10/08/22(Sun)21:44 No.1703 >>1697 Deal. And although I do not enjoy CoH I have to admit it is the only competent super hero MMO by a long shot.

>>	Jaybonaut 10/08/22(Sun)22:34 No.1704 >>1703 yeah Champions had potential but without the established classes it kinda falls apart.

>>	Jaybonaut 10/08/22(Sun)17:00 No.1698 Sigh. I am glad I didn't grab it but still I hate seeing stuff like this in the industry. Same with Hellgate, Tabula Rasa (which had potential) and Auto Assault (that game never grabbed me though.)

I have a question from CoH players, past and present. How would you rate the blaster primaries, with damage and effectiveness, top to bottom? Here's mine:
Fire (duh)
Ice (safe and great damage, albeit single target)
Archery (hits harder than you think, great aoe once tier 9 is picked up, just got buffed)
Assault Rifle (this set gets WAY too much hate - it's got more aoes than any other set. It has more non-lethal damage potential than archery, as grenade, flamethrower, and ignite -omg ignite- hit more targets than explosive arrow and the fire arrow. AR also got an overhaul last year, changing nearly every power's recharge/activation speed to nerf ignite's insanity.)
Energy (ah.... sigh. Energy is pretty much THE best solo primary IMO, but hated in teams and high levels, and yeah, it's for good reason, but sigh...)

>>	Kildyu!xSoMKildYU 10/08/22(Sun)00:56 No.1685 I also Played fire, Very fun. Ice on a Corruptor was lot of fun as well. Leveling a DP right now, still like level 10.

>>	bob 10/08/22(Sun)01:00 No.1686 the hierarchy goes like this: fire for dmg anything else for lulz

>>	Jaybonaut 10/08/22(Sun)06:01 No.1690 Lol damn, these GR missions are nuts, these groups are psychotic - I just had to decide if I was going to save Praetor White's babe who saved my life earlier or to kill her to stay on the side of the loyalists. The resistance is even more crazy.
