Ask Gauss

Sunday! Yes here it is the first Sunday of the summer that is if you are living in the Northern Hemisphere. Otherwise happy winter to everyone else! Summer being the time where we all tend to game less because we venture to the place known as the outside world. I know it can be scary. Sunday though regardless of the time of year is time to answer some questions so let's do that shall we.

Do you think it is wrong for Blizzard to have Season only legendaries in Reaper of Souls?

From my understanding with what I have read there are 2 possible options. There is the option when the season is over the legendaries will be part of the normal loot for all non season players. The other option is a gated system where the season players have had enough of a time to get access to them first and then they patch them into non season play. Now the first option is completely fine with me as long as the seasons are not very long. Kind of like the way Hearthstone seasons are where it is once a month. If the seasons are longer like they were in Diablo II then the second option is a much better scenario. Basically they want to get people playing seasons and really the world we live in people won't do things if they are not given bonuses for doing so.

So Heroes invites are going out to non US residents, what you think?

To quote Mr. Fidlay "Hell, It's about time!". Really I have been wanting to try out the game for some time now and this may be my chance to do so. Now I am not saying I know I am going to be getting an invite, because honestly I have no clue if I am going to be getting an invite or not, but I do know now there is a chance I will and really that is better than no chance at all. Also if I do get in you all can expect me to give the Gauss point of view from everything I have got myself into.

Watching the SC2 matches from MLG?

Why would I not be. Actually been some great games so far looking forward to the end result today.

Ask Gauss

It is that time again. Yes it is Sunday. This is a special Sunday though, well maybe. That depends on if you are Canadian or not. If you are tomorrow is Canada Day, which means it is a holiday. Unless you are from Quebec, but then we all know you have issues just because of that. Anways, Sunday means it is time for Ask Gauss. The post of the week where I answer some questions, which have been sent to me throughout the week. How do you send in your questions you ask? Well that it easy. There is a button on the top right area of the page. You click on it and pick one of the many ways to get send them in. So with that all out of the way here we go.

Will you be watching MLG this weekend and if so who do you think is going to take it?

Well I always have to go with my Canadian boy even if he hasn't been playing the best lately. It is Canada day weekend afterall so I think this is HuK's time. Other names to look out for especially with the ways they have been playing lately DeMulsliM, Illusion, and Hero. Overall it should be a great tournament. Now Starcraft II is the only real thing I am interested in watching at MLG. Mostly because I don't feel LoL and CoD are actually good spectator games. If you don't watch the MLG or any of the Pro gaming you really are missing out. The players are truly something special to watch. If you are interested here is the link where you can watch Champship Sunday Major League Gaming.

I am having trouble in The Last Of Us with Bloaters. Any suggestions?

The best ways to deal with them is Bombs or Molotovs. I also assume you are not being stupid and standing in the explosions. Also try not to use arrows or regular pistols as they require way too many shots and on higher difficulties are a complete waste of ammo. Put it this way it takes 3 Bombs/Moltovs to kill a bloater so I think that works out to around 30 shots from pistols. Stay mobile and unless you are trying to get the achievement don't be close to them at all.



Don't think it would have been much easier to accept killing Garrosh if they just made him a Ret Pally?

Well they can't be too obvious right?

There you have it this week's questions answered. Enjoy what is left of your weekend if you are Canadian enjoy your extra day tomorrow.
