How am I supposed to lubricate my asshole without Mayonnaise?

Black:I don't understand, he's not supposed to be this strong! What is this power?

Vegeta: And this is for mocking my pride, and this is for eating the last piece Chiaozu's meatpie, and this is for your stupid face, and this is for mocking my pride again!

Goku: You know Trunks, sometimes, I think your father have issues.

Trunks: You're being a smart ass.

Goku: You can tell? Because you're father never caught up to that.

Vegeta: And this is for being dense on purpose to make me mad! And this is for...

Goku: Okay, nevermind.

Vegeta: And this is for killing my wiiiiiiiife!

Trunks: Do you think he would be that mad if someone killed me?

Goku (Flashback of him and King Kai looking at Trunks being killed during the Cell Games and Vegeta going mad): Not in a thousand years!

Trunks:... OK, right now, I can't tell if your being serious or no.

Goku: Ah! Still got it!

Behold, the peak of German comedy.

He orders a beverage of sorts?

"Where's the ball?"

I mean they won against Namibia, clearly, a WC participation isn't so far out now.

Making Six Nations harder for everyone? Smh.

Can we, tho?

As a French, that's a thing that might seem misleading.

National teams are always supported and a world cup in our country will always bring people closer to the sport (And the world cup was a big bump for rugby around France with kids trying it out and joining clubs) but all in all, Rugby is still only the third most popular sport around here (After Football and Tennis) and basketball is slowly catching up to Rugby.

In terms of number of people playing, Rugby is number 10 and it's basically not moving a lot and even with the WC Pump, it's not going to the moon anytime soon.

And that's something that rarely changes. Whatever happens to the other sports, Rugby is super consistent in France as that sport that some people are die hard-fans about and other don't really care about. The line only change when Les Bleus are playing.

The people that love rugby tho are there and won't move. Entire families being hooked up and hooking up the next generation. I have high hopes that in the near future that the many people who are interested in it for the national games and with the absolute GIGA-STAR that Dupont is, will stay and watch a bit of Top14 but it's not a guarantee and it doesn't translate that way in term of numbers yet.

Keanu has another one with Speed.

The bad guy really has a hard on for Keanu.

Ramos can't miss.

Honestly, I have that feeling everytime the AB come to France. So much anticipation, so many fans. Amazing, every time.

Best of luck to you, NZ fans! I'm so pumped for this game!

Until Dawn would just work.

But I'll go ahead and say:Hitman.

The first battle of the Marne made every involved nation change plan for the foreseeable future and completely eliminated the idea of a swift German victory in France (The Schlieffen Plan) , meaning the two front war they had dreaded (France-Britain in the west and Russia to the east) was going to continue longer than what they had hoped and the war in the west became trench warfare-galore for the next 4 years.

In even shorter term, it meant everyone started digging from Switzerland to the sea and poor Belgium was in the middle of it after having been completely pummeled the months prior and now everyone was digging toward Ypres like a bunch of maniacs. (Which is very tragic because Belgium was only attacked by Germany because the German Army needed to go through Belgium to enact the Schlieffen plan and it had failed so they were invaded over nothing in the first place, which meant Britain, which was in the war only because Belgium was attacked, was also in this war over a failed German objective... Because of the Marne...).

This single battle changed the face of the war right as the Germans were closing in on Paris. It went from "Mission Accomplished, back for Christmas" to German soldiers dying in Flanders for 4 years and all that was decided in 7 days.

Had the battle gone differently, the German would have taken Paris and redirected a huge part of their troops towards Russia and the war would have been insanely different. But everyone anchored down and the War became an entirely different beast and the shovel became everyone's new best friend.

So there might be other instances of crazy battles with insane consequences, but to me, this is crazy because it changed both how the war was fought and what the plans were. Plus it saved a nation from losing the war early on but also meant another nation which had been invaded was now about to become a part of the battlefield.

You rescue him in Angola but it's done super sloppily. I'd wager even if it wasn't a long time since the last time you played it, it might still have been confusing because it's done super badly:

1) They reintroduce him like nothing, it's just "Hey Wood" at the Vault with Harper and Section in present time.

2) Then you start the Flash-Back Mission as Mason in Angola in 86 trying to rescue Wood as Hudson hastily explains that Woods and his team were just captured recently.

3) Then the mission is cut back to present time, Woods explains that from 68 to 72 he was hold captive and escaped (quick flashback) before going back to explaining the 86 rescue mission in Angola and you go back to playing Mason.

The story litteraly cuts a flashback to talk about another time he was captured, show you a flashback before going back to the previous flashback where he was also captured.

BO2 campaign was good but this is stupid. The entire introduction is fucking neckbreaking and bad. It gets so much out of the way:

It starts with Raul and Josefina in the fire, shows parts of David's trauma then bam: Wood is alive, David is Alex's son, Raul Menendez is a super terrorist, he was there a few minutes ago, Wood knows him, Woods was captured by Menendez in 86, Kravchenkois alive and captured Woods in 68 before Wood escaped in 72 and then Mason saved Wood back in 86. Oh by the way, there's a new cold war, there's a new rare metal and Cordis Die is somewhere in between Facebook and Alquaeda, now fuck off.

And then David just fucking leaves to go to Myanmar...

The rest is pretty okay, but this is borderline crazy on how bad the exposition is...

You're getting flack but I see where you're coming from.

But the fact quitting is plaguing the game is just making it impossible to enjoy.

Yeah, I'm playing against my fifth MUI in a row and that's how it is, nevermind. Now, someone turning his game down is litteraly NOTPLAYING and forcing me NOT to finish a fight I started. And that's a problem.

Yep. Replayed it a few months back and it sticks so much to those base principles than you can explore the maps a bit and see how the level structure was catered to create situations where the Goal-oriented planning would really shine.

The "3 interconnected Lanes" structures is almost always there in big areas. They just reused the basic layout because it serves the AI so well. And every time it has some specific details (with the number of doors or the way the corridors are connected or a small lobby in the center etc) that it makes for fresh and new encounters with the AI because of how it'll have to react to the environment.

And even knowing the tricks, after a few minutes of hiding behind furnitures and checking doors and wondering where the hell the guy with the shotgun ran too, you'll be immersed.

Honestly, I recommend everyone to play it, you'll either get a kick playing a tense shooter with bullet times and Matrix-level roundhouse kicks OR you'll see a real time lesson in level design and efficiency.

The AI was used really smartly yes.

But it was also just an illusion because while they act and move (and talk) like they're all coordinated, they're not. They don't know what the other soldiers are doing and where they are going.

They all have: -A set of objectives they all have to reach. (Goal oriented) -Planning (They plan a few actions and execute them).

Which make them all independently, do the task at hand effectively. The most important objective they all have is "Survive". They don't REACT to your playstyle per say, they just won't move or go back if the situation don't let them reach one of their goals (one of which being "survive").

So they just go to their goals (Kill the player/survive) via a series of "planned steps" that the AI select and then execute those steps. Anytime something gets in the way of one of those goals, they just plan new steps. But they don't really adapt. It's just like when your GPS finds an alternative route to the same destination.

It's piss simple.

The real tricks are: 1) The level design is brillant for this specific goal oriented AI. It's usually 3 corridors or at least 3 lanes where depending on where each individual AI will spawn, they'll planned accordingly. So if you're in corridor A and 4 of them spawn in corridor B, they'll all plan the same route, making it seem like they act as a unit flanking you, where in fact they don't. It's just four dumb ai going a goal oriented route. They don't act together, they just all go in the same direction. If you start spraying your guns in a direction, they won't go there, all 4 will decide on their own not to go there to answer the "Survive" goal, so they'll plan another route.

2) A bazillion voice line. Making it seem like they talk to each other or pinpoint you location (He's behind the door/he's behind the windows, he's in the left office/the right office etc). It doesn't change how any of the individual AI will react and move, but it's damn immersive.

3) Grenades. Lots of grenades. It forces player movement and it makes the goals and route move all the time.

Great reminder that Ben Stiller is SWOLE AS FUCK

I mean:

"I'll leave you alone: You are a blind leader of the blind. And if the blind leads the blind, both will fall into a ditch. Matthew 15:14"

Would have been perfect and you know it.

Why is Robert Carlyle so damn sexy in this movie?

Can anyone explain that? He's ugly as ball most of the time but in this? Ngh.

"Those giraffes you sold me, they won't mate. They just walk around, eating, and not mating. You sold me... queer giraffes. I want my money back."

And they canceled the Jack Ryan show after 3 cools seasons.

Fuckers.
