@the_catalyst: Yeah, it's not a thing right now; although I remember a couple of alts tossing around the idea recently. But the guy who championed it got splattered by Valerie Huntington [the mutant monarch (or part of the family at least) in Venezuela], so the landscape is...as ever, wide open for it. But it hasn't happened or come up majorly.

@the_catalyst: I like your character's power set. Very interesting. ^_^
@rosso: Gotcha. I have a lot of work to do then. Thanks!
@paragonxxx:Thank you! It's not super combat based, but that's what I like about it.
@the_catalyst: Your welcome. ^_^
@animus_: If you have a PS4 or Xb1 then it's always recording. And discarding.
You can go to your settings to determine how much, but when you hit the "share" button there's an option to save a video clip up to a certain length of time retroactively (i.e. making sure the system doesn't discard it).
So like if I do something cool in a game, I don't have to go "I wish I was recording." It already is, and I just hit the button and "save video clip" to let it know "I wanna hold on to the last 15 minutes (or however much)" and I can then go in and trim if necessary, and maybe do other things. I don't remember if there is for the other things though, because I only ever trim on the PS4, transfer to a flash drive, and then use my computer to do anything else (usually saving clips for a gif).
Do you have to log onto PS website to be able to save the clips? Because I tried to go into the PS4 app and look for it there (because on xbox you can look at recordings through the app) and I can't find them >__>
well I guess I forgot my Ashley account password cause I just got locked out of the account -_-
LMAO!
@rosso: oh wow I wish I knew that earlier lol thanks. Im about to start uploading them to my youtube
@ashley_knightfall: I have never done that. But I also don't know anything about an app. (Like a phone app? I just did everything from my PS4.)
@adam_newcastle: You and my roommate. Do guys just not press buttons to see what they do?
@sequitur_crix: Not like that, sucka! (Only in certain games and characters.) I mean...you've got this button sitting there all that time and never wondered what it did? (Or accidentally pressed it because that's also happened.)
That's the other thing. No matter how tired I am or how little sleep I've gotten, I never sleep well the night before first shift. Just...antsy. I always wake up before my alarm, and I can never fall back asleep before the point of "What's the point? Just get up."
I hate it when that happens to me. >.<
@rosso: lol I've used share but ain't know it worked like that
They left without me! Now I have to catch up V_V. They are so going to have fun with me at Boot Camp T_T
@shield-maiden: *Hugs* Shame on them!
I thought you already did boot camp?
@paragonxxx: Nope! I have to take my test coming up before I can get checked up by the docs, swear in, pick my job, and then get a ship-date. Right now, I have been working out with soldiers and people enlisting like me. Today is a special thing at my recruit station and I am late for the workout at the park D:
@shield-maiden: Ouch! Well I hope they understand. Anyways, I know how busy boot camp can be and you likely won't have much time to do things on Comic Vine for about 6 weeks. Please let me know when that happens so I can be ready for that. ^_^
@paragonxxx: Lol, oh they'll understand alright. I definitely will give you guys a notice when that happens.
@shield-maiden: Awesome! I'll sure miss you when your doing boot camp. *Fist bump*
@sequitur_crix: Pictures of yourself!
@musa_bashir: Your new Av Sir
@grimmwald: aka the Black mamba
@cassius_knightfall: LOL, exactly. Btw, thoughts on the England vs. Croatia game? And how the France vs. Croatia final may turn out.
@grimmwald: England played well first half and missed a few opportunities but Croatia dominated everything after the break. Deserved winners. I am gutted I didn't bet on it as I fancied 2-1 extra time and Mandzukic to score. The final I think will be 3-1 France I cant see Croatia's slow heavy defenders dealing with Mbappes pace and trickery.
@cassius_knightfall: lol could be worse
@musa_bashir: i went easy on you, the quote amused me though. Believe me, the other options where more towards what you would have expected.
@cassius_knightfall: It was an interesting performance, especially because I feel like Gareth Southgate did commit a few tactical mistakes that, while I won't say cost England the match, did affect their overall ability to impose their tactical vision on Croatia. England went with a 3-5-2 formation which unfortunately asked Lingard and Dele Alli to do a lot of work. They were playing as part of a three man midfield (with Henderson as the lone holding midfielder) with the task of running forward to support Harry Kane upfront, but also having to drop back to midfield to close down on opposition players in order to keep them from playing the ball from deep and to stop Croatia from creating chances, and whenever the ball was switched out they had to run to the wide areas of the pitch to help the wingbacks.
Advanced midfielders who are meant to be supporting the two strikers up front shouldn't be running around the pitch that much. And it prevented them from retaining possession of the ball, and without Dele Alli and Jesse Lingard to consistently feed him the ball from good positions, Harry Kane was isolated up front. He won't do anything if he's not being given the ball. And he can't be fed the ball if Dele Alli and Jesse Lingard can dropping far too deep to help Henderson protect the back three or have to drop down to the flanks to help the wingbacks defend against Croatia's wide midfielders. It's why England eventually resorted to their old tactic of passing long balls up front. Unfortunately that doesn't work anymore, and it hasn't worked in years. If all Harry Kane and Sterling are being fed are long balls because the advanced midfielders behind them are deep in midfield or even in defense so they're too far to feed them proper passes, it neutralizes England's ability to create chances and score.
And whenever Dele Alli and Jesse Lingard would drop deep to help Henderson, it left a gap in midfield for Croatia to exploit. Even worse, whenever Dele Alli and Lingard had to run to the flanks, it created a lot of space that exposed Henderson and England's midfield to Modric, Rakitic and Brozovic. And that's just about the last thing you want to do against Modric, he's the world's best midfielder. Give him space and he'll use it. Furthermore, with all the running Dele and Jesse Lingard had to do, they tired out very quickly. Too tired to cover the open space they kept leaving behind whenever they'd run out of position. The game was decided in midfield, as most games usually are. It was a tactical blunder. Had Croatia not played the combined extra 60 minutes from the two games before England, they'd have been fresher and probably would have taken the lead earlier and more convincingly considering how often Dele Alli and Jesse Lingard were getting caught out of position.
The 3-5-2 is a very demanding formation and it can be strong with the right personnel, just like any formation. But it needs a very strong midfield three for it to work. You need an amazing holding midfielder to retain possession so that your attacking midfielders don't have to keep running around the pitch whenever the opposition team switches the ball up because it's otherwise impossible to cover all that ground with a midfield three. It's been England's main formation in this World Cup but it's failed every time England faced teams with an elite midfield. Belgium exploited the formation's weakness, and now Croatia did too. Gareth Southgate should have picked up on the formation's tactical weakness. Especially because England are overloaded with world class talent. With that being said, I don't think Croatia will beat France.
They've gone to extra time in the last three games for a combined 90 extra minutes. They've literally played one game more than everyone else because of it. They'll be too tired to deal with Mbappe's pace, and I don't think they're getting past Kante or Pogba who will be walls in midfield.
@grimmwald: you like the fringes idea of what either of those are but you do fit. I'm curious what a with not unlike Rahzan would look like. Like he isn't just evil for evils sake he's got a purpose to be a with that was at one point noble but became twisted
@adam_newcastle: I would be a Slytherin if they put that sorting hat on me, LOL. I would also explore the Dark Arts a lot more. Voldemort was a mass murderer but like Dumbledore, he had a desire to push the boundaries of magic beyond what most thought possible. That's appealing. Discovery and advancement of new magic would be a motivating factor for me. As for the Sith, I just prefer their ideology over the Jedi's. The Sith ideology isn't inherently evil. It's more-so about how one should wield the Force than an imposing some kind of ethical standard. I could easily create a good Sith character just as easily as I could create a violent and bigoted Jedi.
@grimmwald: ink the page and I'll sign it lol. Wizard world alternate earth could be interesting
@adam_newcastle: LMAO right? So many potential story ideas.
