Yeah, sure. If just to add a little variety.

I'm new to selfies. I'm even using Photobucket, which I'm assured is way behind the times. So be gentle...

Dude, you handsome. I bet you would look fantastic in a tux.

(honestly, that was my first thought on seeing your picture.)

... Not only did two people notice me, but two people had positive things to say.

I... Is this a sign that Sam and Dean messed up somewhere and Hell's a-coming?

 

[alandavidson]

Sure, I'll play!

Hey, it's me!

Spoiler

No one wants to see my face. I don't want to see my face. I've burned all my mirrors (which is no small feat, mind you).

 

[solemnwar]

Sounds fun!

Spoiler: Here is me in my country's cultural attire!

Spoiler: Here is me with my hair straightened to better show off the red highlights I got done

Spoiler: Curly hair with red highlights

Spoiler: Before the red highlights

Spoiler: And then me being mysterious

Currently feeling good about myself so PICTURES EVERYWHERE! I'll probably regret posting these when myself-esteem plummets again.

Also, yes, that is my real hair, yes it really is that curly and long, no there's nothing fake about it except for the very recent addition of red highlights because I was bored.

That's a gorgeous dress, I love that colour!

Actually I didn't have a copy for long. I bought it with all the bonus goodies because I liked the first one, and assumed Overkill would deliver a better game since becoming more experienced...I was wrong. I don't know if it was better on PC, but I traded in my copy and kept the collectors edition stuff. I really liked the first one, but it had some big flaws, and for the most part, they were not fixed.

But thanks, I do enjoy wearing the mask whilst quoting from the opening scene in The Dark Knight.

It's still the same game on PC (aka bag moving simulator 2013) (aka let's only play the same four missions because the XP payout is bullshit on all the other ones) (aka hosting system and interface that's inferior to late nineties PC games) (aka putting tape on your gun stock costs $79,000), but PC is undeniably better than console versions because Overkill haven't been able to get a patch past Microsoft and Sony, but Steam has given them no problems. There's reworked mechanics, new DLCs, better heists (like Big Bank or Shadow Raid), another difficulty level, the beginning of custom user-made mods, and Overkill is promising a lot more content. If you look up Crimefest, Overkill has already promised to make Old Hoxton a playable character and have a Hoxton breakout mission free of charge.

It's still very much the game you got at launch, though. No more big movie moments like stealing deadly viruses from hospitals, lifting panic rooms out of the ground, throwing CFOs off of buildings, or having a police shootout on the streets while managing bastard Matt who's handcuffed to an important briefcase. The heists are all cool in themselves, but at the end of the day, you're just moving bags...

I don't know. To be honest, I love the game because it's PvE and the gun porn.

Give the game a second shot, or at least watch a few videos of it. I highly suggest watching GeneralMcBadass, this guy does some pretty impressive feats in the game using gimped loadouts and he has a really nice voice. Plus he updates and livestreams regularly.

Thank you, I have him bookmarked now. While smashing up a mall was amazingly dull, the biggest thing I think I had a problem with was the optimization. The frame-rate, the lagging, the poor animations, things like that. Which includes that hosting system you mentioned. But now that you mention it, I did have more fun removing a big red diamond from a vault. At least they fixed the odd aiming a little.

I'd give it another shot on PC but currently and for the foreseeable future I only have a laptop which, despite having an i5 core, melts when I play anything past 2002. But I will check out the videos, they look interesting.

Have two nightmare inducing pictures, everybody:

I have no more for you lucky folks, because photos are never taken of me. Rejoice!

Spoiler: Some of you have probably already seen this one.

Spoiler: Here's me with some My Little Pony figures. Fun fact: This was on my High School year book

Spoiler: And here's me in my Eren Jaeger cosplay

Spoiler: Hello

Spoiler: Sorry, first thing that came to mind.

Great, I just sprayed milk from my mouth and nose because I was laughing too hard and now it's all over my desk. Fan-fucking-tastic.

[DanielBrown]

Um... this may sound so stupid, but how DO you post pictures... and hide them? And make them look all cool like that?

Like this, but without the spaces before each... box(I don't know the word!):

You can also write [ spoiler=] on the first one if you want the box to have text on it.

Hmm... alright, I'll bite. For once.

Ser Brown already answered, but here's a good index of Escapist bbcode commands: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/18.198114-Escapist-User-Guide-to-Posting-Commands?page=1

Bookmark that and never again wonder at everyone's apparent internet wizardry!

That one is WAY out of date. Here's a better one.

 

[shootthebandit]

It's very poor form to comment and not contribute, you know.

I told you I'd do it

Spoiler: click here for awesome

Unfortunately my selfying skills are pretty poor. Due to my makeup artist and personal photographer not being available im sorry for the poor quality

 

[Spoonius]

Nevermind... just realised how astoundingly idiotic my comment was.

I wasn't going to post here on account of not having a photo to share, but I feel compelled to point out that that costume is several kinds of awesome.

Yeah you cop out. Join us, assimilate and connect to the matrix. I had to take a picture especially for this and make a photobucket account
