Setting Up OBS & Gamepad Viewer for UX Testing

Image
After a couple of tests, I found the OBS setup with control pad overlay to work very well and is a useful tool in user experience/intent testing. It's an onscreen representation of control pad input that syncs up with gameplay. It can be used to check that input results the proper output in game. This setup will be valuable as changes to UIs are being made as we want to avoid control pad efficiency becoming worse.  Setting Up Example / Application Downloads Gamepad Viewer (https://gamepadviewer.com/) OBS (https://obsproject.com/)

DCUO: Little Flame Whisperer

 Description Defeat Superwoman without any player taking damage from any of her fire fields, big or small, in the Return to Earth 3 alert (elite or elite plus). Glossary Home Base Pull - Superwoman heads to her corner spot and does a conal pull with a short tapout. 360 Pull - Superwoman does a 360 pull from the tank position with a long tapout, followed by single target heat vision. Inferno - The heat vision + inferno DoT to avoid for Little Flame Whisperer feat Battle Start Her first heat vision will be almost immediate and usually on the tank. So just don't use long animations to open the fight. The 2nd will follow when the 1st inferno despawns. The Pattern  Home Base Pull - try to tap out and land in a safe spot between the red circles  Go full attack during this period  Release pet(s) just before skull - the idea is to have them do passive damage during the next phase when we're concentrating on dodging 360 Pull - tap out as fast as possible and block This is the period

DCUO: Seasonal AFK Exploiters

[Updated for 2023!!!] The following is a straight list of AFK exploiters in DC Universe Online for just seasonal events since I started keeping records in 2018. This does not include toxic players or any other terms of service offenses. This does not include AFK exploiters of regular content. I will delve into sorting and analyzing this data further to look at patterns & trends in a future article. To make this list, the user must have done one or more of the following: Remained AFK from start to finish of the instance Moved character into the battle, but out of danger to go AFK Moved character as far as possible from the room entrance to avoid being moved into the field (doesn't work with all alerts) Moved character around and do emotes for the duration of the alert, but not contribute Trolled chat while not contributing Why this is a violation of Terms of Service While this action is not exactly the same as an executable manipulating macro, it serves the same means of automat

DCUO: Ultimate Batman Bundle Price Guide

Image
  Here's the breakdown of what's included in this 2250 Daybreak Cash ($22.50) package: 1. Beyond Enhanced Style Suit - This is old, but useful if you started the game after the Gotham Time Capsule 2. Modified Beyond Enhanced Jacket style (use your own emblem!) - New! This is an updated chest piece to the above where you  can use a different emblem. 3. Manor Lair Theme - Old... (1500 DBC) $15. If you already bought the theme on its own, this item wouldn't add any value for you as the separate theme purchase is redeemable on all characters. This bundle item is just for 1 character. So it does not really carry the $15 value with it. It would actually be $15 / # of characters on your account. 4. The Bat Cowl Style - Old... (200 DBC) $2. Same as the lair... just 1 per account. 5. Swarming Bats Aura - This is available in-game during Halloween, for a short grind (50 marks I think). So this one doesn't really carry any value if you can wait... chances are you already have
