Does boss difficulty change depending on the floor?

In Splatoon 3 Side Order, because of the randomization of the tower, there are three bosses that can be fought on either floor 10 or 20 (Asynchronous Rondo, Pinging Marciale, and Parallel Canon).Does these boss fights have any differences based on what floor you fight them on?

Why is the firmware of the Xbox Wireless Controller not updated automatically?

I have now updated all Xbox Wireless Controllers (the first time since years). I didn't know that I had to do this regularly. Is there a reason why this is not done automatically? Updates to games and consoles also happen automatically. Most gamers will probably never update the controller firmware because they don't know about it. Question from user Sybil at stackexchange. Answer: This is an assumption, but one possible reason controllers aren't updated in the background is because there really isn't a time controllers . . . [More]

Tactical stance in COD MW3 - is there RL equivalent?

The new tactical stance in COD MW3 - is it based on reality? I can't imagine why holding a weapon tilted would give you an advantage in combat. Any insight? Question from user Boppity Bop at stackexchange. Answer: There is a stance called C.A.R.(abbreviation for Center Axis Relock) system - which nowadays called 360° CQD(close-quarter defense) - that focuses on close range combat, that is used by US army, police, and John Wick (Keanu even published his training).

Valheim multiplayer difficulty scaling

I am looking for a thorough explanation about Valheim difficulty scaling when playing with multiple people inside a same world. The only information I could find with a quick google was this wiki, which states:. Creature health is further increased by 40% for each nearby player after the first at the moment it spawns. Hostile creature damage is further increased by 4% for each nearby player after the first at the moment it spawns. Are these the only rules on scaling difficulty? Do these rules also effect any boss spawned? And what is t . . . [More]

What are the limits of Minecraft worlds?

Although Minecraft uses its peculiar cube art for all the elements in it, it respects some physics' laws in some manner. If Minecraft uses gravity laws and we expect it respects computer memory limits, the worlds created in the game would be spheres, or cubes because of the art design. So, how large is the radius of that sphere (or the "radius of the cube" ?) in these worlds? The same of the Earth or infinite? Question from user kokbira at stackexchange.

Slay The Spire: Does defeating minions reward extra gold?

When fighting an Elite Enemy, they can sometimes summon minions to assist them in the fight. Defeating the Elite causes any surviving minions to run away. Will defeating the minions before defeating the Elite reward me with extra gold after the fight? Question from user Stevoisiak at stackexchange. Answer: Defeating minion does not award extra gold. I do not have hard evidence, however:. If it did, some fights could be exploited to get infinite gold, e.g. Gremlin leader or Reptomancer, which would be a major balance issue. Car . . . [More]

Wii controllers keep losing connection. What can I do?

I have a Wii and two controllers. In the last few months the controllers lose the connection to the Wii rather often. It's bad enough that we cannot play Mario Kart any more (because one player gets disconnected every few seconds). If I play Super Mario All Stars on my own, it disconnects less often, but when it does, it's always in a jump (which then ends, catastrophically for poor Mario). I tried replacing the battery sets, thinking that maybe the rechargeable battery sets had issues. But that didn't work. Nothing in the set . . . [More]

Luigis Mansion 3: Does a higher rank change the ending in any way?

I've recently played through Luigi's Mansion 3. I didn't really care for any Boos, crystals or money, and the game awarded me with the rank B at the end of the credits scene.  Given that this is my first title in the Mansion's series, I'm not sure whether the credit scene is tied to the rank in any way. Does a higher rank change the ending scene or any other (post-)game content? Or is it just fluff and for show in a screenshot? Question from user Zeta at stackexchange.

How to quickly check if peaceful mode enable - disable

I created a game with the largest starting base parameter. I forgot if I checked or not the peaceful mode case before seeding the map.  Is there a way to access this information?

Efficient use of Construction Robots

I often find myself constructing things using blueprints because it's so much easier than laying multiple things by hand. I was recently doing this at a remote mine site, that I had connected via Roboports to my main base, because I wanted to ensure that any damage would be automatically repaired by construction robots using the repair packs that I requested for the roboports. However I noticed that as I was stamping down my blueprints, my personal robot swarm was only doing one trip between me and the planned items on the ground, and le . . . [More]
