I really like Marek as a podcast host. He's extremely knowledgeable and passionate about hockey. From the information that's publicly available right now, sounds like he got fired. Hopefully he can land on his feet and make a comeback either independently or for another company before the start of the season. If not, I will miss his insight into the sport.

Good reference, Charlotte

My team was running together. Host calls down resupply. We all grab a pack. Then host teamkills all of us from behind. Wtf, right?

He reinforces us. I teamkill him in return. Get kicked.

Death Note, sometime in 2009 or 2010.

I remember when it came out, people on forums kept talking about it nonstop. I had no idea what it was, so I just blindly torrented something called Death Note... it was the live action Japanese adaptation lol. I didn't even know it was an anime until years later. Just for years I thought everyone on the internet was obsessed with that live action movie.

  • Spawns are table based and random between missions. Means that each mission has a set table of spawn types. For example, two of the most recognized tables for bugs are "this mission has tons of bile spewers" and "this mission has chargers and bile titans"

  • You are gonna get a higher chance of more elites spawning at higher difficulties. So 6 and up.

  • If all you are interested in doing is farming the kills, then find a mission where bile titans spawn, then carelessly aggro all patrols and allow as many bug breaches to spawn as possible in order to allow more opportunities for elites to spawn, then get your kills and leave mission, since you don't have to even complete the mission to get credit for the personal order

Seems less like "protesting" and more like "fucking over other people in the game" to me, which sounds about right for the League of Legends player base.

Because it was a joke, Mr Pedantic Person.

I bet it will come with a free copy of Denuvo. Will be an incredible deal: 2 softwares for the price of 1 software. Can't beat that.

Before people get carried away with the weird narrative that Pilestedt was forced out in some sort of corporate coup, read the article. He stepped down by his own decision into his new role as Chief Creative Officer. He handpicked the new CEO. Also some relevant quotes from him:

“I’ve been thinking about the journey ahead for Arrowhead, the future games we’re going to be making, and running the organisation beyond the 120 or so developers we have currently,” he tells us. “I realised that running an organisation of over 100 people to however large it is going to get… it means I will [have to choose] between deepening my love for game creation, or the business track."

“Over the last year going to launch of Helldivers 2, I’ve been pulled more towards the business side of things, and not able to focus as much on the creative side. That made me realise I needed to make some decisions, both for the success of the business but also myself."

So he's focusing on the game rather than the business aspect.

Honestly I am OK with this. He's repeatedly demonstrated that he seems to be the only dude at AH who isn't a hostile asshole to players and more importantly he recently admitted that balance for the game has not been good. AH has spent the last few months squeezing out a lot of the players' goodwill from the game, but this gives me hope that maybe they can course correct from here on out.
