Thats not a very big margin... R6: Vegas just came out like.... 2-3 months ago?

A better question is where do Mervs get their water?

 

Yea and the Machines. It isn't clear if they get their food and water in the same way as Zion. Do the Machines actually help Machinists in the real with food and water? Also they make fun of Zion for living in caves and eating gruel but how do we know they don't do that too?

As a squirrel that waits for the movie to come out on Cable TV instead of actually going to the movies the first month it comes out, I am a liberty to say...

Perhaps these "pills" will be the new organization rewards coming up at the end of chapter 8. (Archieves 5-8 that is)

Nah we get clothing rewards for the big chapter archive rewardy thingy.

As cool as these are, I'd much rather have an Agent Suit.

I mean, we got health, antibotic, RSI, smith, patchers, quicksilver... why does all new content have to be varying colours of pills? =P

Because they can't do anything else =P

Yes....300 brackets.

Hence why Tournaments should really only be for level 50s, considering a level 15 fighting a level 15 is very inconclusive when it comes to "skill".

You're right that RAM makes a huge difference in overall game performance, but I'm not seeing where it would affect your network response time.  But yes, all those background programs that use your bandwidth do affect lag:  I run SIRadio on a separate machine for that reason.

I wanted to throw in here that just 2 nights ago I had extremely bad lag in the Historic District--but nowhere else.  The game behaved properly, and I wasn't having coord problems (rubber-banding, teleportation, etc.).  But instead, whichever part of the program polls a server to check NPC status and/or calculate loot was unbelievably slow.  In other words, I'd kill a Pit Viper, the readout window would acknowledge that I'd killed him, he'd fall to the ground, and I couldn't target him or get a context-menu of any kind.  Wait about 2-3 minutes, and suddenly he'd be lootable.  I killed 2 or 3 and watched as, in order, they'd all fire up the green sprinkly fragment animation that says, "Yep!  I'm dead now.  Come take my stuff." in the same order in which I'd killed them.

I stuck around a little longer, and it seemed to be intermittent:  Guys A, B, and D might take forever, but C would be lootable instantly.

I'd have made a screen grab, but...nothing really to show.  Body on ground, no green, no menu.  TAB didn't auto-select them as if they were still alive, and if I still had them selected when they dropped, any attempted action via command-line or hotbar would say, "Invalid target selected."
