Comments:
<0> most of them say that CoH doesnt worth it, just go directly to CoV
<1> tavi-san: In my experienced opinion, they're full of it.
<0> yeah, noticing many of them arent that let's say "experienced"
<2> it a romulan forum. romulans are evil. they dislike heros.
<1> I've got both, and I'm enthusiastically playing both - even though I've been playing CoH for far longer than CoV.
<0> Revenger: haha
<0> Revenger: actually some were like "omg, i always wanted to be superman"
<1> Yes, CoV is more polished in many ways - especially the zones and story arcs are better thought out - but CoH is very much worth it.
<2> tavi-san: if there was a possible "level 60 scriptkiddie" they would go for that.
<0> Shadur: one last question, how's the game's content to new players?
<0> Revenger: rofl
<3> what time do tasks in crondaily get executed. Also, how can I tell if they were executed or not
<1> q4: check /etc/crontab
<1> tavi: Erm, what do you mean?
<4> 02 4 * * * root run-parts /etc/cron.daily
<5> quantum4: next to that you might want to check your logfile(s)
<0> as in, how can i put this in English? ;)
<1> quantum4: there you go, then.
<0> me, as a new player, how will the game treat me
<0> will i be like "omg everyone is high lvled, cant find anyone my lvl to do stuff?"
<1> tavi-san: You've got to remember, the devs *do* read the forums, and while they were working on CoV they could see threads in the forums about how this or that was boring, or how people wished this or that was different.
<0> or there are a lot of people joining and can find a party here and there and do some quests
<1> tavi: As I mentioned earlier, sidekicking is rampant. So is altitis.
<0> hrm, ok, i will be probably in, i just need to talk to the $fiancee and hear what she has to say about it
<1> I've got 12 character slots on Virtue, 11 of which are filled, with characters currently at 6, 12, 18, 22, 31, 32, 35, 42, and 50.
<0> i mean i need her to like it too, so i wont get any mad things @ home
<0> Shadur: did that with WoW :)
<0> she was playing it too, liked it, i was playing a few hours a day every day, and she didnt ever say anything
<1> Heh.
<2> "taviiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!!!! are you dumb**** sitting at that box with the blinking lights again!
<0> more she came and watch, let her do quests
<0> ended up with her creating a character and lvling it to 50 i think
<0> Revenger: rofl
<0> i dont think she would ever yell at me for playing
<0> but it's better to make her like it :)
<0> Shadur: last question (again;)): will i need (probably) two accounts if i want her to play with me from the lappy? (stupid question but it happened once) :)
<1> Yes, you will.
<6> yes, they (the women in our lives) tend to be more understanding of our hobbies when they enjoy them too
<7> Indeed.
<1> tavi: One more bit of advice in case you start playing before I get home, though: Starting at level 6, you will get access to various power pools; most of them center around a travel power.
<1> You WANT at least one travel power. Trust me on this.
<1> The actual travel power won't be accessible until level 14, but you need at least one other power from the pool it's in to get it.
<0> Ka-bar: yeap
<0> Shadur: thanks for the info... :)
<1> So if you want, say, Super Jump (from the leaping pool), you'll have to pick either combat jumping or jump kick no later than level 12.
<0> i must think about this, but as my finances arent that high, i will probably start with CoV as i see more and more posts that it's better than CoH
<8> "you irc'ing again?" <-- I hate that!
<0> ok im saving what you said :)
<0> Shadur: i make 600 euro/month
<1> Currently travel pools are Leaping, Super Speed, Flight, and Teleportation. What they do is pretty much self-explanatory. :)
<0> so i need to be careful with what i purchase :)
<1> tavi: Ouch.
<0> Shadur: trust me, it's good for .ro
<0> i make twice both my parents make
<8> hah
<0> and hopefully in 2 months or so i will get the promotion to boss
<7> Dinner on tavi!
<0> actually it manager
<1> ahh.
<0> synapsis: i can cook ;)
<4> somehow it does not look like my files in that directory, at least one of them, are getting executed
<1> quantum4: Are they executable?
<0> Shadur: what can i say? im CCNA/DA/NP certified, i wouldve made much more in any other western country
<1> quantum4: One easy way to find out whether they get run is to add a notifier to each script that emails you when it's done.
<4> yes
<1> Heh.
<0> going for ip telephony specialist soonish (cisco one)
<7> tavi-san: You would've also paid much more for everything else in any western country.
<8> tavi-san: 20 Mill. monthly sure is nice to live with in .ro ;)
<0> synapsis: yeah, even for MacDiddies :)
<2> most people would not stand up for 600E
<0> yoz: not that nice, but ok
<8> tavi-san: common.. most people earn 4
<0> Revenger: i pay 0.5 usd for a heineken
<2> ewww. heineken.
<7> We have 5x that.
<0> yoz: people w/o any university degree and such
<4> Shadur, : yeah that is a good idea, but seems like something fishy. do I have to turn on the cron.daily exection somehow, or does the fact that it was in /etc/cron mean it is on
<7> err pay
<2> ****ing close to water.
<8> tavi-san: *nod*
<0> Revenger: 0.5 usd is a carlsberg too
<1> Tavi: Anyways, each travel power has advantages and drawbacks. Super speed has some added stealth while it's on (you run by so fast that villains don't see you), but it lacks vertical movement, which can be a major irritant in some zones with a lot of verticals.
<8> tavi-san: but they *try* to live as well.. and they can ;)
<0> yoz: yeah, it's way easier to own a home, and not pay rent
<7> Shadur: What game?
<0> from the 600 i pay 200 rent and 100 electricity and heat
<0> Shadur: sec, need to save that too
<0> Shadur: btw, what you said applies to CoV too right?
<7> Ahh. Crack of Heroes.
<7> My LAN regulars are all *addicted* to that game.
<1> Superjump is nicely fast, and there's something viscerally satisfying and neat about being able to leap 150 yards vertically and 300 horizontally, but you can't hold still in mid-air and landing in the middle of a spawn of purple-conning mobs can ruin your day.
<7> They'll fire it up and play while I'm in the kitchen warming up food.
<1> Flight is full freedom in all three dimensions, but it's slower than the other powers and drains a lot of endurance, comparatively.
<9> anyone done VPN tunneling with ssh?
<0> Shadur: thanks, i just saved everything you said :)
<7> From what I've seen, you can superjump on water.
<1> Teleport is hands-down *the* fastest - you cover a distance of up to (100*1+range boost) yards per jump with less than a second between jumps if you click fast enough.
<1> Drawback is that, again, you can't hold still in midair, and each hop takes a lot of endurance, so you can run out fast if you port at the maximum rate.
<0> hrm, that was lacking in wow, just the mount (stupid horse/panther/whatever giving you a max of twice the speed you're running)
<1> synapsis: Sort of. It's more that there's no real "deep water" coded into the game.
<7> Ahh.
<0> or the gryphon flying which kinda ****ed standing 5 mins to get from a place to another :)
<1> tavi: Yeah, one of the guys who used to play WOW for a while talked about that.
<1> In CoH, you get sprint at level 1 for free.
<0> Shadur: hrm, nice o.O
<0> anyways, this was a great fun chat in #linux :)
<0> Shadur: i will see when i get home what i will do
<1> tavi: Yeah, power details are the same in both games.
<0> i will show her some screenies from CoV, maybe she will like it :)
<10> I need a tip. I need to recover data from a formated ntfs-partition, and I need a good tool to do the doiti-work
<10> Can you guys help?
<0> and yeah, it's better if she likes it too, than if she hates it (like she hates me playing fps games;))
<1> Neuroner: #windowsnt
<10> well sure, but you ppl are teh real pros (read: nerdy people who can help)
<10> :P
<0> actually, i should consider getting her some the sims game
<0> she enjoyed those
<0> Neuroner: and in English now... :)
<10> Allright
<11> In debian there is a "default" menu in openbox and other lightweight windowmanagers. Is there something like that in ubuntu?
<0> oh ****, 2950 just went offline wtf
<0> bbl a bit
<0> thanks Shadur for the info, tty in a few minutes
<1> Neuroner: Thanks, that was a really nice attempt at a backhanded compliment from a retard to his betters. But you're going to have to go away now regardless.
<1> No prob.
<10> Allright, will do
<10> Thank you so much indeed for helpful input
<1> Heh.
<0> heh.
<0> $boss reseted the switch rofl
<12> alguno de ustedes
<12> uso la ultima version del captive
<6> akros, ENGLISH on this channel please
<12> funciona el win con servi pack 2??
<8> akros!1!1!
<6> OK, I don't speak spanish, but I could pick out that he was asking about windows service pack 2. On #linux. WTF?
<8> haha indeed.
<8> I've seen many lame nicks.. but that one was uber lame.
<6> damn, that was more than just a "lame character in nick"
<8> Ka-bar++
<13> "lame manga smiley in nick"?
<8> that fits it
<1> Ten minutes, then I head out.
<0> Shadur: heh, $fiancee didnt quite get it about what game i was talking about and she ended up at the guild wars site and got some vids from there and she liked it
<0> haha
<1> tavi: Score. :)
<0> Shadur: haha, GW is pretty nice, but id definately go for a game in which i can find some people i know
