Got it earlier than I expected myself to


Got Scy and Kena to get this game for me since they went to IT fair and SLS to buy their stuffs.
Thanks guys!

Will be getting it next week.
Now is to wait till 15th to get my hands on...


The very first RTS game I touched was Shogun Total War. The very very first one of the total war series. I remember that I got that game from my cousin, Gary when I went to his house to borrow some games to play.

And I remember flooding the whole map with spies so I do not have to initiate or declare war.
Just wait for the province to have riot and send my army in there and occupy it. LoL.
No repercussions at all!

Now to play my DAO.


I did not back up my save files cause it was a rush to upgrade my com asap cause it was too freaking slow in whatever it is doing cause I underclocked it to prevent it from giving me death screens both blue and black!
:P

Anyway, now I am re-doing my very first character I played throughout my 1st try.
A dual sword rogue. More on cunning than strength.
I prefer it to strike fast fast with dual daggers than 2 broadswords/longswords.

L4D2 The Sacrifice Expert - Miki the Hero


Me = burden thanks to my unstable ping at night.
Pretty obvious shown on the net_graph; bottom right.
I want QSS more and more *_*

Miki forgot his key controls, the maps and the finale for The Sacrifice and I forgot about the uncommon infected and car take-down by tank. LoLx.

I should move on testing other games.
Already tested on CoD:BO and damn, I suck!
Just an average player but now is like I am super below average!
As if my lag playing was better than my now super smooth game play.
Have to change my style now since the feeling and sensation are completely different.

L4D2 Dead Center Expert - 2 Players 2 Bots


Testing online multiplayer game after I had finally set up my new rig 2, 3 days back.
Hosted the game too to check out my new settings.
Volunteering guinea pig = my friend KeNa who wanted to play L4D2. LoL.
Have a very good connection at home but had a old paper computer and a 5 year old wireless G series adapter.

Game settings were maxed out.

Mainboard : MSI P67A-GD55 (MS-7681)
Chipset : Intel Sandy Bridge
Processor : Intel Core i5 2500K @ 3300MHz
Physical Memory : 8192MB (2 x 4096 DDR3-SDRAM )
Video Card : NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460
Operating System : Windows 7 Home Premium Home Edition Media Center 6.01.7600 (64-bit)
CPU Casing: Cooler Master HAF912
Wireless Adapter: TP-Link 300MBPS High Gain Wireless N USB Adapter
PSU: SeaSonic 620W True Power

Unfortunately, my Mum and Dad were streaming videos separately which results in KeNa having mad laggness especially during the finale so I could not test out the extend of how good my new computer can function yet.

Song by Drawing Days: Splay

And I have no idea why after I uploaded to YouTube another extra 4 was added to my video height which resulted in the green bar below again -_-
My rendered video was 1280x720 became 1280x724 on YouTube.

New Computer Specs~

With some help from PCWizard2010:

Mainboard : MSI P67A-GD55 (MS-7681)

Chipset : Intel Sandy Bridge

Processor : Intel Core i5 2500K @ 3300MHz

Physical Memory : 8192MB (2 x 4096 DDR3-SDRAM )

Video Card : NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460

Operating System : Windows 7 Home Premium Home Edition Media Center 6.01.7600 (64-bit)

CPU Casing: Cooler Master HAF912

---

Overshot my initial limit for it but I guess it's fine as long as I like the performance!
But I am thinking that....
I might need a new wireless adapter since my old Planex driver for some reason still can't be installed yet!

Still updating the system.
Hopefully it should end fast...

I am really damn tired + frustrated cause the guy who helped put my computer together formatted the wrong drive which contained all my SCHOOL PROJECTS!

Ah well...
Partly my fault.
I did not specify properly.
At least he was a good guy.
Not like some other uncles in SLS...

And...
Thanks Miki!
Good to have you for reference xD
Makes it easier for me to decide some of the parts.

Though some initial parts I really wanted has not arrived, at least the staff was helpful.

How to Unlock MHP3's Alatreon, Akantor and Ukanlos

Simple, really.
Since some people still can't find out how even when Google search can be the current cyber world best friend, decided to blog to save you from getting brain damage :P




Huh?!
Amatsumagatsuchi?
That's your Guild HR Final Urgent Quest.
You will get it after you clear the Jhen Mohran urgent quest.
Which is also a pre-requisite in order to unlock Akantor, Ukanlos and Alatreon.



For Akantor

and Ukanlos,

Just clear all the Guild High Rank SINGLE monster hunting quests.
Easy aye.


For Alatreon,

All you have to do is to finish off all the Guild High Rank MULTIPLE (just doubles really) monster hunting quests.
Excluding those from the extended (marathon) quests.
Easy not?! LoLx
It would be easier if you have friends to help you with it.
Else you can either use PC to xLink Kai online or Adhoc Party with PS3.




For more info, please Google =P

I am not so evil, sadly.
Here are some links.
Go and poke around yourself!

Monster Hunter Wikia
Minegarde
MHP3rd English Wiki

And before anyone starts asking stupid questions even before visiting the links.
They are ALL in ENGLISH.

The Reason I Think I am Stress


I NEED TO UPGRADE MY COMPUTER!
ARGGGG!!!!

It's been getting more and more slower.
As well as..... laggish..
Not that much so I can still take it for normal use but not when it starts jamming and I have to start waiting for it to recover or just restart it.

What's more pathetic?
I am not a hardcore gamer...
More of a in-between causal and hardcore type. (Semi-hardcore?)
And I had to UNDERCLOCK my computer, which also includes the GFX just to make sure it does not die on me during normal use and gaming.
Oh, and it's not driver problem cause I had already updated it to the newest one that was released on Jan2011.
It is also partly due to the pathetic 9600GT.

In case you do not know the problem with it, 9600GT is just 8800 power up w/o solving its initial problems like the TEMPERATURE, put a new name and poof - new product, come and buy it!
A sad fact that I only found out months later after I bought it.
It's also partly due to my budget casing which only cost me $30.
Time to change that too!

Thank to that, I can hardly play anything at all since some of my games like Fallout: New Vegas would crash at some random point.
Just by loading a new turn in Civ5 can lag to boredom too.
Not to mention running my Python program can also cause it to hang or freeze up sometimes but it will let off after I don't known how long.

Need to look into more parts info before I make my move!
Budget around 1.4k which can fetch me a decent 1.
Well, problem is...
I don't research hardware stuff that much!!!
>.<

Phail!


Since as usual I can't sleep, decided to go back to Civ5.
Still have quite a few achievements not yet complete, excluding all the other DLCs.
Sad to say, my plan for a Cultural Victory has failed again!
I used India with only a Capital cause I also want to get another achievement, "One to Rule them All".
Was playing on King difficulty. I move difficulty up by 1 level every time I earn a victory.
Arab had the strongest military but Persia built United Nations, had the most vote and down the culture chance went >.<

Will be trying again after school.
This time, I have already set the game up using Egypt.
The higher level AI tends to steal the Wonders so easily even though I went to deforesting mode for increased production.
(Unique) Egypt's 20% wonder production rate + (Social Policy) Tradition's 20% wonder construction = I don't know yet!
LoLx.

There goes my alarm again.
Time to wash up and get going.
And maybe catch a breakfast too.
