I usually agree with Vault Dweller, but some of his "news" didn't belong in the news forum. The General RPG or even General Discussion would have been better.
Sol Invictus said:Yeah that's true. The news is always 3+ days old because when it comes from anyone other than Saint. Everyone else who posts news either "doesn't care about (insert game here)" or "didn't think it was newsworthy". See: VD's comments on how Titan Quest or any action RPG for that matter isn't interesting to him.
Again with the bullshit. What's with the pathological need to lie? Do you feel that you will be taken less seriously unless you make some shit up?Sol Invictus said:Yeah that's true. The news is always 3+ days old because when it comes from anyone other than Saint.
Business as usual, another day at the Codex.Tintin said:This site is so messed up.....devs from all over come to be insulted....some Volourn guy with 5000 posts is spamming for some reason.....this Sol Invictus keeps posting here even though everyone seems to hate him.
I too am looking forward to Oblivion, but that doesn't mean that Bethesda just want fans that say (wow that's the greatest).angler said:I am too looking forward to this "Oblivion".
Just grab a heavy blunt object and smash your head in with it repeatedly. Eventually all language will cease to have any meaning and l33t will make perfect sense.franc kaos said:Does anyone know a site that teachs this l33t speak? as I can't understand most of it (ie !!!111, RoXor etc).
Psilon said:Franc, Argonians and Khajjit were playable races in Daggerfall--select Black Marsh or Elsweyr as your home province. That's not something they added in Morrowind.

Sol Invictus said:Saint is wrong about Emergent AI. It might not be as complex as The Sims 2 but the NPCs definitely have desires that they need to fulfill (e.g. eating food) and they have to attain it in some way or another that results in emergent behavior. It might not be so complex as to cause big changes, but it's still emergent to the smallest of degrees.
Besides, more can be done with it. We're not talking about Fargoth here.
This isn't quantum mechanics. There will be things that happen the designers didn't plan or foresee, but it would still be deterministic.obediah said:with some nondeterminism

obediah said:In this case it would mean using a random number to make a decision, so that you can't rely on the same thing happening every time.

I love the computer science definition of non-determinism, only I wish they labeled it what it really is: MAGIC! Ho ho ho, here's an impossibly hard problem with 20^40^800! different branches. No worries, put it in the magical non-deterministic box and it takes all possible steps using almost no time or resources and out pops your answer! Now I only wish those stupid computer scientists would stop talking about it and actually go out and build one of these magic boxes.
