It's basically CS 1.6 (or even CSGO) and overwatch blended together.

It is fantastic fun. I'm almost positive it will be the next big game. And i'm sure there will be esports leagues for it.

Anyone buy flight simulator?
Anyone have a computer even capable of running it?

From what i understand the engine needs a bit of work. But they plan on updating it and supporting it pretty well in the future.
I really hope they add VR support.

I've been playing GoodGame Empire. It is a giant live action game similar to Age of Empires with tens of thousands of players worldwide. I'm on the US1 server.

Elk fillet mignon wrapped in wild boar bacon.
Best game dish I have ever had.

Fall guys is the new craze. I have the perfect rig for the intense graphics in that game.

Lol. Does anybody ever use a big fish tank to circulate water through their water cooled computer? I would think that would be a logical extension of the idea of water cooling.

It's been done. (Cooler) with and without ice. It works well for a while. But you still need a way to expel heat.

There's even motherboards designed to be full submerged under water.

As in, using a fish tank with fish and such as a reservoir so you will clog the heat exchangers with fish poo? Or just use a big tank with coolant as reservoir? Filling up, and emptying the reservoir would be a bitch.

If you want to use a fish tank, you need this stuf

A fish tank 'filter' is more for holding an ecosystem of bacteria that break down particles in the water than actual fine filtering, poo is one of those particles. The water coming out of that filter still has all kinds of particles in it, including small pieces of residual poo. Its not a fine micron filter, it's a sponge.

Would be fun to do it with those self moving toy fishes!
