After several teasers...

Original text: "I am making a fancy secret project, of which a lot of people know about." ...35 translations later, Bing gives us: "Many of them are in the article." Yep. But the path is better. Budget submitting articles? Original text: "Are you leady to re?" ...35 translations later, Bing gives us: "One way is not good." Original text: "Why does my new video have only seventeen views? Timface." ...35 translations later, Bing gives us: "There is a new version of page 17 of Tymf." Okay, so, Tymf is like a book or something, and there's a new version of page 17?

Ahh, I just rediscovered this... which made me think of here. Original text: "Why am I wearing socks?" ...35 translations later, Bing gives us: "This is not the reason." Original text: "I wonder if I exist? Everything tastes funny." ...35 translations later, Bing gives us: "Note that if you have the time? I was very happy." I... guess I was very happy... but is that really not the reason?

To be fair, McDonald's is worse. Yeah, but at least when you're eating their fries a worker doesn't come up to you, take half of your fries and say: "I'm sorry, but you need to use 200 McCoins to have the rest of these fries."

Amazing teasers. Amazing trailer. Amazing model. Amazing minifigures. Need I say more? Oh yeah, and Peter Reid screaming.

Hey guys, Do any of you like first-person shooters? Do you like driving or flying, or maybe the scale of an RTS game? A bunch of us here on RRU have been playing a game that puts all of those together fairly well in an MMO package and it's great fun. It's called Planetside 2 and it's a free-to-play futuristic first-person shooter. Unlike most FPS games with online multiplayer, you're not restricted to 32 vs 32 fight on a tiny instanced map. This game supports over a thousand players per "map" simultaneously, and the maps are actually persistent continents with fights brewing 24/7. We play as the New Conglomerate on the Waterson server and we have a small outfit of our own, [RRUn] for Rock Raiders United (fun fact, in the lore, the NC were construction workers and miners before the war). By small, I mean we have less than a full squad. It's fun, but we can always have more RRU members on board as we have been expanding outwards into other games. Here's the current team in no particular order: ftgsarge - dear leader TheDoctor - runs the Teamspeak server Cirevam Acmex Amauros IceHusky² If you decide to join, send a PM to me and I will add you to the Skype room. We use Teamspeak 3 for in-game communications, so get it if you have a microphone. And please note that this game requires a powerful computer. You're not going to have a good time playing on your mom's 8-year-old laptop running Windows XP. You may also want to check out the official forums for what to expect as well as the subreddit: https://forums.station.sony.com/ps2/index.php http://www.reddit.com/r/Planetside/ I hope to see you on the battlefield.

http://www.gamespot.com/articles/ea-golden-age-for-gaming-upon-us-industry-needs-to-embrace-change/1100-6420874/ If I may, for a second; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W6DAxC6wp70 I'm not even going to grace this with a description. Let's just get to ripping apart the quotes. Yeah, so long as you have the equivalent of a $1000 US to buy that shiny new PS4 in Brazil. What if you live in Afghanistan or Antarctica. Could I play games there too? As a company, you've successfully failed over the previous decade or so to provide any of those experiences without hindering the player in some way. Your practices net you the Worst Company in America crown. What do you say to that? And what's this about tying franchises together? Am I going to kick around a soccer ball with my Normandy team against Faith and the guys from Battlefield Bad Company 2? By ignoring your long-standing relationships with your previous clients. Great to see you in charge as COO. Gaming as a business is not like other industries. Microtransactions only serve to hurt developers and gamers. Even if they didn't, could you honestly say that the way EA has done it so far hasn't hurt people? And let's look at a different yet specific example. This is from a post on the steam community: "A simpoint is worth 10 cents. So everything on the Sims 3 store costs approximately $74,486.50. As for DLC/the game itself, the total is $439.81. So grand total, you're looking at $74,926.31 to own everything the Sims 3 has to offer." Telling. You ever think that maybe that's what these new people want too? To just sit down and play the feckin' game? I don't think anybody new to gaming would stick around for long if they new they had to keep forking out of their wallets to continue progressing. We need to embrace the fact that billions of people are playing games that are not yours. There are successful F2P games, but the formula is extremely difficult to get right, and turning almost all of your games into this horrible scam can only serve to destroy the integrity of the original design plans the developers wish to turn into reality. You will lose out because you're a businessman, not a gamer, and you fail the grasp why gamers enjoy what they enjoy. We're happy to fork out $60 on release for a new title. Hell, I put down $220 for a Halo: Reach preorder once. But once that game is in our hands, that's where the transaction should end. We go off to play, you go off to fix the game (since apparently all AAA games are now released as Alpha/Beta versions and then just patched as they go) and then make a new one. You might be so familiar with games as music then, because you own some extremely boring franchises. How come games like Fez, the original Halo, Deus Ex and the majority of Nintendo's title are always being replayed when they don't offer any extension content? Maybe it's because they realised how important it was to get the core gameplay experience correct before gipping the consumer? You might want to fix your filter then.

Hey there! Do you think you have the right voice for a character in RtPu, than this is the topic for you! I'm adding vocals to the game to give it more depth in conversations with other raiders/cadets. Might also give a better feel that you are a rockraider and that you need help of other raiders to make progress in your missions. Guidelines! (Kindly stolen from >Xiron's Voiced Scripts mod for Lego Racers 2 (which you should also check out )) Current people voicing characters in this project: Characters: If you want to apply for a character, send me a sample of your voice! I will send you lines as soon as I need them, and they also might not be send all at once. Thanks for your help in advance, I hope this will turn out great! Peace!

Here's a comparison of the original MOC and the set: http://brickset.com/article/11666/exclusive-exo-suits-side-by-side >

According to the video description, Its Pete. It's Pete and Yve. Shame, I wanted his name to be Adam.

I have been forced to eat >the words I said last October when this set was announced to be the next CUUSOO (now Ideas) set... and words have never tasted sweeter. Mark Stafford has done it again. True, it's not nearly as complex as Peter Reid's original MOC, but what's important is that it beautifully recaptures the spirit and essence of the Exo-Suit. Plus, two exclusive green LEGOLAND Space astronauts and a robot turtle... what's not to like? Now, here's hoping that Adventures of Steamrod can get 8,000 votes in the next 300 days...

It's safe to say that landslides occurring aren't just a fad. They're here to stay. Many are calling them the new frontier of the disaster world. With each passing year more and more Chief's are finally convinced that it's time to give landslide prevention a try. But as is always the case when launching a mining plan in a new channel, there are many pitfalls that Chief is unaware of. Because landslide prevention encompasses so many different channels, the number of possible mistakes are huge. No Rock Raider team will ever create the perfect landslide prevention campaign without making a few mistakes. But here is a look at three particularly rubble-creating mistakes and how to avoid them. Failure to enlarge for equipment For several years now mining equipment has been steadily increasing in size up to equipment for building the LMS Explorer. It's projected that within the next year, mining equipment size will surpass LMS Explorer repair equipment. Think about that for a moment. That means that more than half of the Rock Raiders working will be driving some type of enormously large mining equipment. Unfortunately, most Chiefs still haven't come to grip with this fact. Tunnels that aren't optimized for new mining equipment will have landslides occurring on half the Rock Raiders in that tunnel. Of course many of those will drive on through to collect the energy crystal they want by shoveling rubble and driving over lava. But it's impossible to know just how many new Rock Raiders Chief is not recruiting by failing to enlarge for new mining equipment. Fortunately, there is an easy solution to this mistake. GPS is a type of technology that automatically tells the Rock Raider the correct newly built tunnel to enter for the equipment being used to drive around in. Rather than having to operate one single tunnel for all traffic, GPS and new tunnels allows you the convenience of building multiple tunnels for different sized mining equipment that all lead to the same destination. No priorities When you're thinking as Chief, it's easy to just assume that Rock Raiders will know what you want them to do in the event of a landslide as a result of an order. The best orders are those that include priorities. By expressly stating what task you want the Rock Raiders to perform, you give priority and purpose to your order. While priorities are important for all mining operations, they are especially crucial for landslide prevention. A good priority will be very clear and impossible to misunderstand. Your priority should be short, demanding, and as overly detailed as possible. The right priority is often the difference between a safe reinforcement and a Rock Raider teleported safely. Failure to target area workers Most Chiefs, when asked who their intended Rock Raiders for their order was, would say, “all of them.†In an ideal world, all Rock Raiders would hear and be influenced to obey your order. But in the real world, trying to order everybody to reinforce walls through an order will result in reaching almost everybody eating sandwiches. A good landslide prevention order will be tailored for the Rock Raiders in the landslide area. Make sure you spend sufficient time choosing your desired Rock Raiders and coming to understand their incompetence and hunger cycles. With this information you'll be able to create a landslide prevention campaign that is much more likely to prevent that audience from getting covered in rubble.

We take from Johny Cashes "Folsom Prison Blues" and get after 35 translations. About ninth translation we get this *cough* gem, that somehow manages to be more disturbing than shooting a man just to watch him die. So not only is he shooting the guy, he is somehow watching him die of a cocaine OD at the same time. Wow. BadTranslator, you are seriously messed up.
