Bethesda are the greatest trolls

June 6, 2009

So I just thought I should spend my weekend running through Fallout 3 on the PS3, since all the DLC is coming to the PS3 at the end of the month. I pop in the game, let it install. But what’s this? No obnoxious “YOU MUST UPDATE DA GAEM DURR” message. I thought “Oh well, let’s play anyway”.

Then I got my Pipboy3000 and I did not get to hear the KACHING!!! sound that is played when you earned a trophy. I thought “Hmmmm” and checked the game version. The latest patch for the PS3 version patches it to 1.1 . My game is running at 1.0.0.5 .

I thought “Okay, let’s try again :D” and restarted the game. No prompt for a patch.

I did a quick internet search. Thanks to 4384798269 so called gaming news sites, the first 3-4 pages on google were cluttered with the same shit that I already knew “Patch coming to PS3 to enable trophies and fix bugs”. Not to mention that they’re all using the exact same text.

So I ventured to the Bethesda forums. No official word on that.

I went to ps3trophies.org were a few threads could be found about my problem, but no actual solution.

Then I went to the fallout 3 section of the official sony boards. And there  we had the answer. Bethesda only bothered to patch the US/UK versions of the game. All other regions have lucked out.

Now you could say “But hey, you have the Canadian version, which is, in essence, the US version”. Let me tell you, dear reader, there apparently is still a difference. And if only this difference is the BLUS code. So yeah, everyone who does not have a game that matches the BLUS codes of the US/UK version of the game has completely lucked out and most likely won’t see any patch until the release of all the DLC.

I mean, let’s be honest here, it’s been over 6 months since they released the Patch.

Thank you Bethesda.

Thank you Kotaku, joystik, Ign, Gamespot and all the other useless gaming websites that like to steal “news” from each other. May you create multiple sister sites who will only serve a single purpose. Repost news and clutter up google.

Chii : Brilliant, Just, and doesn’t “suck dick”

May 13, 2009

Well, well, well, hello fine readers of Diadu, and hopefully anyone who’s related to this crazy awesome drama. I believe I will start off by showing the involved parties…
First, we have team 8D. These guys are mostly awesome…mostly, anyway, yeah…then we have Lone, one of the Shithack moderators. Finally, we have Chii, who “used” to play PSO (or so he claims he quit) and had a melt down over Lone. This is actually fairly common on PSO as most of its players are incompetent, but it’s not too often you get a user who is a WeabooMollyAde.

For once, I actually didn’t take a main part in this drama. Way back when, I trolled this Chii person because he actually believed a computer font should be banned. This is amazing in itself, but not much happened from it (I think). Right after this, I had marked yet another stupid person on the list, and Shithack moved on. Then I come back from playing horrible games (PSU) to check out the team forum, and shit got awesome. Apparently, Chii had been power stupid for a while, and in a fashion similar to Molly and Ade, was being completely paranoid about how everyone on the server staff is 100% corrupt, and that since Lone found a good Sealed J Sword while he didn’t, he is doing some mad hacks.

This is usually entertaining for about ten minutes, as Ade and Molly are, but then this person has a blog. I think you should check this blog out! This blog alone made this post worth reading - trust me, it’s amazing. If Molly and Ade met up, had a child - I don’t know - but this would be what happens. Paranoid, angry, and powerful stupid…always a great read. Let’s analyze a little bit of this blog and point out the powerful stupid contained within. I should point out that Chii has a fascination with dicks (likes to bring it up in his “insults”), and believes being a great troll consists of adding an insult to every sentence. Isn’t that fantastic?
Although I did say a little bit, what I actually mean is the PSO - related bullshit that has come up recently. I encourage you to read the rest of his blog and laugh at his miserable weeaboo existance though. I mean, he’s a fansubber, and his name is Chii. It’s like I don’t even have to read the blog to get an idea, but I did anyway because it’s funny. Anyway, first things first - it all starts out with Chii’s obsession with dicks and how he believes Lone sucked them to get a moderator posistion. This is a bit silly in itself as Chii has no idea how moderators get selected. It would probably be better if people sucked dick to get posistions on here, because then at least some of them worked something. Needless to say though, Lone did not suck dick to get on here, or at least that’s not why he got his posistion. He then mentions on how Lone “hacked” the server on Sonic Team. I believe Chii is confused, as Brocha was silently fucking up the official servers, while I was doing it quite loudly…actually, just about everyone on the staff hacks or has hacked at some point, so he’s probably just a raging retard with this one. Anyway, so Chii then calls Lone out on his mad hacks because he predicted he would find a good rare if he hunted for one. Hmm. While finding ubers and calling good percents is usually hard to do, it’s possible, and even when it’s not…he’s part of the staff, and you’ve got two admins who really don’t give a fuck that offer to make items for other people. MAD HACKS! It’s also ironic as Chii has some items in the dupe list, but that’s boring drama now days.

Then the Blog Win came in. Now, apparently, 8D has made this community trash. Nevermind that it’s really not even that old or that we haven’t actually changed anything in game, BUT THAT SHIT IS RUINING PSO, SO CHII IS LEAVING US. *High-five* I’m not even sure what 8D did but they did a good job. Also, Chii is once again bringing up his obsession with dicks. I believe he should contact Dansk immidiately. I have to wonder though, why does he keep calling out to GMs when he talks about dicks? Is he jealous? The world may never know as Chii has left us for good. Even though his blog keeps talking about 8D which is basically PSO only. Yeah, we’ll never know.

Well, I’m going to link him to this though…maybe he can come call me a power tripping corrupt dick monster. I’ll have to go under seven proxies to make sure he doesn’t post my IP as well for my life would be ruined if that was revealed. There’s one thing I don’t understand though, how are the staff corrupt? Someone feel free to answer me in the comments.

Today, the DLC Broken Steel was released for Fallout 3. Check the tags before you continue reading fag, you’ve been warned.
Now, as per usual with Bethesda, something went horribly wrong by releasing this on schedule (even though they did delay it once already). This is of course that nobody using GFWLive can play it! So PCfags got screwed on this one for the time being. Some XBROS got screwed too, but I didn’t, and that’s what counts.

Moving on, I was actually pretty pumped for this release. There are several new perks and a level cap of 30 with this add on (which you must purchase to get these, poor person). The majority of these perks suck, actually, but extra stat points and a few good perks make it alright. A few examples - Puppies, which revives Dog Meat, means I will actually bring Dog Meat with me outside of the cave he’s been sitting next to for thirty hours. When you hit level 30, you can pick a perk called Nuclear Anomally, where you explode when you drop below 20HP. I think this probably kills you, but holy shit, that sounds fucking awesome! You are a nuclear weapon of walking asshole. Just imagine the possibilities on your dick characters - you can be a murderous, rampaging asshole who, when finally stopped, takes out everyone anyway. Then there’s also a perk called “Almost Perfect” which boosts all your stats to 9, so you can probably plan the perfect character around that…or something. The best part, of course, is that all other perks are still there, so you can pick Ninja AND Grim Reaper’s Sprint. Dr. Bro, if you’re reading this - combined with a weapon from the DLC called the Man Opener, which is essentially a fully automatic, much more damaging Death Claw, you become pretty baller. Too bad POS3 doesn’t get DLC for Fallout 3 (but I heard it looks shittier anyway). Moving on again!
You basically beat the game the same way as you did initially. Instead of going to the main menu, though, the screen blacks out into loading, and you wake up in the shitty excuse of a Pentagon. You can tell the Brotherhood to fuck off instead of helping them, I think, but I wanted loot, so I helped them. It starts off with you going to beat the shit out of the Enclave again with Liberty Prime, and this is pretty cool, until the Enclave decides that they’ve had enough of your games and calls an oribtal strike on you. This would be cool, except it basically blows Prime to pieces. He hasn’t been fixed when I finished this quest, by the way. As anyone who’s played Fallout 3 and has half a brain can tell you, the Brotherhood is a bunch of retarded lazy assholes, so instead of fixing up Prime immidiately, they opt to let you, lone person with a questionable background, to save the Brotherhood. This is awesome, actually, for reasons yet to be explained. So, you go off to Old Olney or whatever its called and retreive a Tesla Coil. You get to control Death Claws, sort of, this would of been awesome but I didn’t really get to use it since I was impatient and wanted to get shit moving.

Once you get the Tesla Coil, you once again take orders for no reason and go to an Air Force base. Via the Presidential Metro….this came off as “oh great another fucking train level” but for once its semi interesting. There’s about 50 Sentry Bots, ghouls, rapists (new ghouls), and a working train that you ride in to the Air Base. Now, I have the game set to Very Hard (because I’m boss) so I took the pussy route and snuck past most of the Sentry Bots. You’ll eventually run into some knock off Portal AI that tells you in order to get to the base, you have to stop an “intrusion”. Or you can shut down the sentry bots and kill everything, but the new enemy is quite a bitch. The Sentry Bots that become friendly then become fucked up after about a minute or so because of the new enemy, Rapist. It’s called Reaver Ghoul in game but don’t let that fool you, this thing is a god damn fucking rapist. There’s about five of them total, and they all have more HP than any other enemy in the game it felt like. They throw little green grenade shit balls, which read as gore in VATS, so I guess they’re falling apart at you with really stupid powerful attacks. Once this is done, it’s on the train, choo choo, off you go.
Now you arrive in a fairly large Air Base and move to some crate to pick up a conveniently located new weapon, the Tesla Cannon. It’s basically a weaker version of Liberty Prime’s lasers, but it’s a nice weapon. Now you work your way to the Air Base to lower a ramp located on the Mobile Crawler (it’s weird) the Enclave ride around in. Yes, once again the bad guys put switches in dumb places. There was a shit load of stuff going on, mainly the war between the Brotherhood and the Enclave, and for some reason there are about 30 Hellfire Enclave (steroids) walking around aimlessly looking for me, so I once again did the manly thing : snuck through everything. There’s also about 80 Vertibirds just flying wherever the hell they want to, and I shot one out of the sky because it looked ugly. Like I was going on about though, once you hit the switch, the “Mobile Crawler” (giant oil tanker on wheels?) opens up, and you go back to it.
This actually was a fairly big…crawler, thing. I disabled something and a random nerd ran up to me. I shit you not, this guy, in the middle of a warzone, Bethesda decided that it’d be an interesting idea to put some asshole here. As far as I could tell, after he gave me his story, he did jack shit. I didn’t bother killing him because he had a Sentry bot and a Gutsy with him, those things annoy me. So, crawling through the crawler, randomly killing shit since I’m in a Chinese Stealth suit, get to the top. The terminal for the Orbital Strike, since Sattelite weapons are located in the middle of computer rooms, yeah whatever. This is where the cool stuff was! Because, while there were a few targets, I figured, “shit only one will work but let’s try it”.

Megaton - ERROR: Sattelite not in proper orbit
Rivet City - ERROR: Sattelite not in proper orbit
Canterberry Commons - ERROR: Sattelite not in proper orbit
Mobile Crawler - This is only for self destruct! Needs final confirmation. Confirm?
Nah.
Pentagon, “The Citadel” - Warheads launched!

Wait, what?
So the quest updated accordingly, as though I had blew up the Crawler. For some reason, the Crawler actually had a huge explosion too, although it didn’t do anything to it. So you hop into the hijacked Vertibird, and fly back to the Citadel….except, they can’t contact it.
FUCKYEAHIBLEWUPTHECITADEL!
You get there, shits in flames, basically like a firebomb hit it. Everyone got pissed and tried to kill me while I leveled up since I finished the quest. I actually reloaded after this point though, because it’s the same karma you get from blowing up Megaton, and I was playing my neutral character.
So, back track a bit. You get on the hijacked Vertibird, and land near the Air Base control tower. You watched a -lot- of missiles blow the Crawler, some random Brotherhood guy cheers, and you get back on the bird and return. Then you don’t get shit, as usual, and you have two quests that are open forever - the Kill Supermutants for some reward I haven’t bothered to find out yet (because I quit after beating this quest), and the “Bring me Sensor units to fix Liberty Prime!” quest, same as the last one.
Enclave still spawn randomly, so you still get the Hellfire armor (which is like a common T51b), so…it’s all good. There are a few things I didn’t actually bother to check, such as “Is tat water clean”, but eh, who cares.

The ending sucked for this quest in my opinion, but so did Fallout 3’s original one, and you get to keep playing. So this is worth buying, and if you don’t, you’re a faggot.
THIS IS 11/10 MATERIAL! And also 1,412 words too long.

My name is…

Fuck yeah, today my POS3 arrived. Shit’s running tight and fine so far. Oblivion looks so much better and runs much smoother than the Xbro version. Didn’t get to play any other games so far, too busy with other stuff.  It’s kinda tough to pick a game that I should play first. Unlike Freddie, I was able to buy a POS3 with 5 games (Oblivion, Valkyria Waifus, Metal Gear Old 4, Alone In the Dark:Better than Xbro and Bruntut Paradise).

Really hard to pick a game. Alone In The Dork, I always wanted to finish it on the Xbro but then I messed up my savefile and had to start over. Around that time they announced the PS3 port and a possible Patch for Xbro. The patch turned out to be a lie so I never got to finish it.

Oblivion, well it’s motherfucking Oblivion. The only downside in this version is, no overpirced Microtransaction Houses such as the Vile Lair (Instant cure for Vampirism) and the PStripple version introduced a fuck up for the Vampire Cure quest. So once you go Vampire, you’re Vampire for life. For life.

Metal Gear Old, I never played it. Same with Valkyria Waifus. Only got them because Brorey said they’d be balling. But that nigger doesn’t even want to get Saints Bro 2. What a failure.

Oh I still can’t decide.

THE FLU

Everyone knows the swine flu was released by muslims to jihaad us back to the stone age. Amidst all the cries about epidemics and new black death and other fox news buzz words, my family came down with normal flu. First my pops, then my mom, now my little brother. Why is it such a big deal? Because it means I’m next on the chopping block, and I don’t get sick often, so if I do, it’ll probably kill me.

Shit sucks, but at least I don’t have meningitis, right guys?

Ahhh Outlander

It will be roughly one week until my POS3 arrives (POS3 > XBAWKS. NUBS)

Was looking for a game that would entertain me this one week. I was thinking of Oblivion, but seeing as I’m getting this for POS3 too (Then I’ll have 5 versions of this game) I decided to give Morrowind a go.

Actually, I still had a savegame on the PC Version and since I made it pretty with all kinds of mods (Just high res textures, removal of the fog, etc.), so I started up Morrowind on my PC and tried to continue playing.

Thanks to the messy journal I had no idea what I was supposed to do, so I just ran around, hoping that I’d, sooner or later, bump into a hint or a quest.

I came to a settlement and talked to the people. All of them had a disposition of 44 points towards me. I thought “Well, this is pointless” and left. As I turn my back on the settlers I hear “NOW YOU DIE” and I see then drawing their weapons, running towards me.

I made haste to get the hell out of there (Not trying to kill them as they might be needed later on).
Then I come to another settlement. Same here. 44 Disposition, turn my back on them “YOU DIE N’WAH”. I get the hell out of there. Frustrated I close the game.

Not willing to start a new game on the PC version (despite being superior), since I needed my PC for something else, I picked up the Xbro copy and popped that into my Xbro370.

I start a new game and the graphics didn’t really bother me. As usual, I do my thing, stealing whatever I can, etc.

Then I leave the starting town (After stealing together some gear) and see a Mudcrab. I think “Yeah, it’s go time”, draw my sword and attack the Mudcrab. But what’s that? It’s like I’m hitting it but I’m not.

Then I remembered why I hate combat in Morrowind. You hit shit visually but you really aren’t. It’s like you’re hitting air, but the air can physically harm you. Fucking marvelous.

Right now I’m sitting behind a drunkard in some bar, using my invisibility spell to level up my sneak skill.

Yeah, GotY.

The post that also beat Sychosis-Kun

April 24, 2009

Hey faggots. You should all know me, and if you don’t, you’re clearly not very important and/or smart. ANYWAY, Demon gave me access to this so I can post whatever, and what else to post here but drama-related stuff and rage? Oh, and I’m a PSO-fag, so I’ll likely be posting PSO drama, or rage about PSO related things.

THIS STORY ALL STARTED WITH THIS BUTTHURT FAGGOT NAMED mrpibb. mrpibb here is all about PSO morals! AS YOU CAN SEE HERE, This guy is fucking stupid. Some guy from my team retracts his bid on an item, and this guy flips out, talking about how it’s the “principle” of it that is so wrong and horrible (See: PSO morals). After a bunch of people telling him he’s a retard, the topic is locked.

(Slightly related)Soon later: we get to this mastepiece (It picks up at page 3/4). Him and his C-mode buddies (Morpha/Aerilas) show some powerful stupidity, call Corey the worst GM or some shit, and start some lulzy shit storm, that’s worth reading all the way through.

WHICH BRINGS US ALL BACK TO THIS. Look at rule 4 (Note: Team 8D = my PSO team). Holy fuck this guy is super butthurt. I didn’t feel like writing up some lengthy reply, and was going to let another member do it, so I just reply with “lol”. Shit gets deleted within minutes, and I’m warned for laughing at this guy. I knew 90% of the staff was fucking dumb, but this is some POWERFULSTUPID right here. Some other person also posted some spam/trolling (Which is what “lol” was considered when I was warned), and shit just got deleted. No warn or anything, just deletion. double standards etc etc. SO now I’m on warn 5. Better make these next 5 worthwhile.

That’s about it. Would have posted something more interesting, but this is probably the most recent Shithack drama that’s actually decent.

Also related:  Another great read.

Summary for the lazy fucks: 95% of the shithack community is dumb.

THAT IS ALL NIGNOGS, SEE YOU NEXT TIME
