I'll just go ahead and say Battlefield.

I know they have a reputation for launching as buggy messes. But I personally find something really fun about being around during those early moments of jank in a video game. It's like every week someone is discovering some new glitch or exploit that creates insane shenanigans for a few days before getting patched out. And nobody's taking it too seriously because everyone is still exploring and unlocking everything and experimenting with the new sandbox.

Not quite. At least not that I know of. There was a controversy a while ago that her signature moves weren't being scored correctly. Like they weren't being given a difficulty score high enough to match the fact that they were so hard she was literally the only person on Earth to have ever done it.

If everyone is going to get pissy even when you do the right thing, then there's no reason to waste your energy doing it.

The right thing would have been to actually listen to the feedback in the first place and not rolled out the update.

I'm not sure what's so hard to follow about this. He'd gotten nothing but negative feedback for the entire month and everyone kept telling him not to do it.

I'll say it again: You don't get points for undoing a fuck-up that you were told was going to be a fuck-up well in advance.

I tried to play FF12 like 4 different times and just completely lost interest in the story after maybe 15-20 hours every single time. I also hated the battle and leveling systems. And yes, the last attempt was the Zodiac version. It wasn't any better.

Also Witcher 3. I could objectively see that it was a great game. But I just couldn't get into the combat and I had zero interest in the stuff like crafting/potion making and Gwent. Probably put like 20 hours into that as well before quitting.

EDIT: Add RDR2 to my list, too. The first one is one of my favorite games ever, but the second one's world just didn't captivate me the way the first one did.

It's almost literally the most appropriate place for it. What the fuck are you on about?

When do you go to amusement parks, generally? Middle of winter or some stupid shit like that? No! You go in the summer, when it's sunny and hot as hell with all the blacktop and concrete and steel acting like a damn oven. Wearing clothing as relaxed, breathable, and comfortable as possible is the ideal. For most people, that means stuff like shorts and tank tops that let you stay as cool as possible in the sweltering heat.

2X faster = 5 mins

1.5 faster = 7 mins 30 secs.

Y'know what? Since just calling people a troll and telling them they're wrong while explaining the correct answer doesn't work, how about I try something else?

So what you're trying to tell me is that 150% of 7.5 is equal to 10?
That's really what you're going with?
150% = 1.5
So you're actually claiming that 7.5 * 1.5 = 10? Really?

Go back to middle school, please.

A friend of mine said 4 minutes.

Could someone calculate exactly how much watched video that would be at 1.5x speed?

I'm still a bit lost on this math riddle. :/

I'm not sure what you're asking exactly?

If it's a 4 minute (240 second) video and you want to know how long it would take to watch at 1.5x speed, you'd have the question "240 seconds is equivalent to some duration at 1.5 times speed":
240 = 1.5x
240/1.5 = x
160 = x
So 2 minutes and 40 seconds.

If you're asking how long the video would have to be in order for it to last 4 minutes when you watch it at 1.5x speed, you'd have the question "what duration is equivalent to 240 seconds at 1.5 times speed":
x = 240 * 1.5
x = 360
So 6 minutes.

They appear to have rules of no bathing suits outside of designated water park areas, but I assume that has multiple factors including the material being unsafe for rides, being shirtless/wearing a bikini, etc.

So basically "It's ok if you show skin here, but not if you step 100 feet that way. Over there it's just obscene."

Fuck that park, and fuck that rent-a-cop wannabe who probably failed to get a job with the actual police and has now let the modicum of power as a security guard go to their head.

If everyone is so sure about their answers, why don't they try making a 10 minute audio file, speeding it up to 1.5x normal, and time how long it takes to play back?

just use your brain

CuriousPoops posted...

if a 10 minute video takes 10 mins at regular 1x speed, and 5 mins at 2.x speed, therefore watching it at 1.5x (halfway between 1x and 2x) speed would take 7 min 30 sec (halfway between 10 and 5 mins)


This doesn't work because it's not a linear relationship.

10^2 = 100
20^2 = 400
So clearly, since 15 is half way between 10 and 20, that means 15^2 = 250, right? Oh, no, that's wrong, 15^2 = 225. Because that's not a linear relationship either.

But you already know all this and are just trolling.

For those who are actually still confused and would like a better explanation with more descriptive language instead of just numbers:

You need to establish your equation properly first. We know the video length is 10 minutes (600 seconds). We want to know what the duration is when the speed of playback is changed. It's pretty common sense that the speed modifier would be a multiplier ("2 times normal speed", "6 times as fast", etc.) When we use the word 'times' in language it means multiplication. So we have the basic setup for the equation. "10 minutes is equivalent to some duration at 1.5 times speed." We want to find that duration, so that's what we make our variable.

"10 minutes" -> 600
"is equivalent to" -> 600 =
"some duration" -> 600 = x
"at 1.5 times speed" -> 600 = 1.5*x

This is how you turn the question in sentence form into an equation in mathematical form.
600 = 1.5x

Then, since you're trying to find the value for x, you isolate that variable to one side by dividing both sides by 1.5:
600 / 1.5 = (1.5x)/1.5
Then simplifying:
400 = x

So the duration we're looking for is 400 seconds. Converted into minutes gives us 6 minutes and 40 seconds.
