Perk- the ability of the character, acquired as the hero develops. Usually, perks are present in RPG projects and the player has the opportunity to choose the desired perk to receive when moving to a new level. Perks help to achieve the individuality of each hero, allowing you to pump the character for the used passing style.

The official update allows you to use new functions, and without it, it is sometimes impossible to launch newer games. If a game requires a newer firmware version, it usually ships with the game.

Usually, respawning occurs at certain points on the kata, predetermined by the location designer.

Rest (English rest - rest)- restoration of health and mana, requiring interruption of the gameplay.

Reuz- reuse.

Roll (English roll - dice roll)- the well-known DnD system, in which in-game events occur according to the randomness of the die roll: how much damage will be done, how much loot will be received, etc.

Rotat, Rotation (English rotation - sequence)- certain alternation when using skills or spells. The correctness of using this or that rotat is a very controversial issue, since often characterizes only the user's style of play.

Sequel (English sequel - continuation)- continuation of a project. A sequel means the continuation of the storyline, and the events of the new game develop immediately or after a certain time from the moment where the events of the previous game ended.

Simulator- a virtual simulator of real-life algorithms and processes. The simulator can act within the genre of computer and video games, for example, a car racing simulator, a pilot, a farmer or a police officer.

Single (English single - single)- a game without collective support, whether it be a solo raid in an MMO or a story campaign in offline games. Modern projects often provide both single and multiplayer.

System requirements- hardware and software requirements for the normal functioning of the game. If the PC specifications are below the minimum required, the game may not start at all, or work incorrectly. System requirements are often divided into minimum and recommended. The first ones indicate the minimum required parameters to run the game, and the second ones describe the parameters required to play at high quality settings.

Slacker- a player who goes about his business during an important game event. Slackers can be MOBA users who are purchased at the base during an important battle, or MMO players who forge armor or brew medicines during a castle siege.

Spawnkill (English spawnkill - killing the appeared)- killing a character who just appeared at the spawn point. In most cases, such an action is not welcomed in the gaming community, since the killer has a significant advantage due to better equipment and a willingness to launch a surprise attack. Most modern projects have protection against such actions, which makes the emerging character invulnerable for a short period of time after respawning.

SS (abbreviated English miss [mi ss] - lose)- no enemy hero on the lane in DotA and other MOBA games.

Stack (English stack - pack) - several items of the same type in the inventory, which take the place of one item. If this happens, it is customary to say that such an item is stacked. The same type of buffs on the character can also stack, while having a cumulative effect.

While playing poker on the Internet, you will often come across abbreviations in chat that players use in communication with each other, but which are incomprehensible at first glance. Especially considering the fact that most of the players on the Internet are from the English-speaking segment, therefore these abbreviations come from the English language. In this article, we will look at the most popular short lines that players exchange during the course of the hand.

LOL is an expression that means loud laughter. Most often applied to funny situations in the hands, for example, when a person wins a pair of aces with 7-2 offsuit.

TY - the same as thank you, thx, 10x, in a word, in Russian this is a banal “thank you”.

GH - in English sounds like good hand, that is, "good hand". Most often it is used in cases where the player managed to collect a really good combination, for example, four of a kind or a straight flush.

VNH - “very nice hand”, or speaking in Russian, a very good hand. By and large, it means the same as the previous replica.

GG - "good game", "good game". It is used to praise the player who was able to play well the cards he had and win the hand. Sometimes players use this phrase before leaving the table to thank their opponents for a good game.

ROFL - Laughter until you lose your pulse.

ZZZZZ - a call to wake up from sleep. It is used for those players who think too long before making a bet or calling an opponent's raise. By the way, more often than not, such players simply play at several tables at the same time, so they do not always have time to follow each of them.

NP - “no problem”, no problem, no problem.

YW - “you are welcome” or, translated into Russian, “welcome”. Most often applied to a new player who has just sat down at the table. Sometimes it is used instead of the traditional "please" in Russian.

GL - “good luck”, just a friendly wish of good luck to your opponent.

BRB - “be right back”, “I'll be back in a second”. Used by a player who is forced to leave the game for a few minutes, for example, when you need to leave to make tea or just go to the toilet.

BS - "bullshit", "complete nonsense". It can be used for any incomprehensible and non-standard situations in the game, for example, when those cards that supposedly should have won the hand lose it.

FU - “f * ck you”, in the mildest translation it sounds like “Fuck you”.

WTF - "what the f * ck", "what's going on?"

WP - “well played”, or, in Russian, well played. Most often it is written as a sign of approval for those players who played their cards well in this hand.

GTG - “got to go”, “I have to go”. Used when a player needs to leave the table, and he warns his opponents about it.

CYA - see you next time.

m8 is an English abbreviation of the word “mate”, which means “friend, friend”.

str8 - quick writing of the combination "straight".

NC - "nice catch", in Russian translation means "well caught." It is usually used for those cases when the player has made a combination for which he had little chance at first. That is, this line is not used with approval, but with some sarcasm.
