[sonic siren]

so I think it's aight

[sonic siren]

yea

[full mauve]

damn

[sonic siren]

yea

[trim wind]

I also got it for free haha

though it was very enjoyable

so I guess its not completely unfair.. its steep in todays' industry.. give or take 40-45 hours to complete the game if you really step it up and don't wipe

[hoary eagle]

I'm currently in a very tight battle on duolingo for my Swedish course hehehe

[wind lichen]

You can do it 💪

[austere crag]

Hey Bear, Povich

[trim wind]

Got into a new league since yesterday evening and the top 3 is constantly picking up when someone overtakes them haha

[hoary eagle]

Hi @austere crag

[austere crag]

Didn't Duolingo change how they do their courses recently

[hoary eagle]

Sounds like you've lvl'd up quite a bit, that only happens once you get properly going. I've been fighting my Spanish demons but struggling so bad.

[trim wind]

I think so

[austere crag]

I was doing their German one a few months back, kinda stopped doing it since I stopped talking to the person I was learning it for

[pastel jolt]

hola

[austere crag]

I should learn Spanish

[wind lichen]

I've learned Japanese for severals weeks but stopped
I should restart it again 🤔

[hoary eagle]

You can practice your German with @lament musk 😉

[trim wind]

WAS SAGEN SI!?

[austere crag]

Pff this was back in August I barely remember it

[hoary eagle]

Oi ¿cómo estás?

[austere crag]

I don't know either

[trim wind]

I am literally bathing in Swedish people (ok that sounds wrong)

[pastel jolt]

muy bien et tu?

[pastel jolt]

[trim wind]

the day people found out I started learning Swedish I got 5 DMs instantly going like.. I want to help you

[hoary eagle]

Muy bueno, tomando mi cafecito

[trim wind]

ar din kopp kaffe bra?

[pastel jolt]

¡genial! yo tambien estoy tomando cafecito

[trim wind]

talar ni engelska?

[pastel jolt]

LMAO

[hoary eagle]

Mycket bra tack!

[austere crag]

Maybe I should learn a second language so I'm not just a mono-lingual guy

[trim wind]

Ja, lara svenska!

I can't be arsed to learn the shortcuts for some letters

[hoary eagle]

Do it, it's fun!

[austere crag]

Time to learn swedish 🫡

[trim wind]

haftigt!

[austere crag]

[trim wind]

fran 0 pa .... hero

[wind lichen]

Is Swedish close to German? 🤔

Or any language?

[trim wind]

Grammatically I would say its very Germanic

[hoary eagle]

Yeah

Leaning German as a Swede was fairly easy I'd say

[trim wind]

they are weird with their articles though

[wind lichen]

Okey interesting 🤔

[trim wind]

"the" is integrated int the noun by either adding an n or a t

and if you say a or an, that letter also matters there

so its ett djur (an animal) or en pingvin (a pinguin)

and djuret (the animal) pingvinen ( the pinguin)

[wind lichen]

Wow sound not so easy at first hahha but ig it's like every languages

[lament musk]

And learning Swedish as a German was as well :D

[austere crag]

Kinda wish I was born in Europe so there was a actual reason to learn another language. All we have stateside is incredibly weird niche subsets of English which isn't that different but different enough to be weird.

Nothing can prepare you for traveling a couple of hours and suddenly they start pronouncing 'Richland' as 'richlunds'

[violet horizon]

[lament musk]

*als xD

[violet horizon]

Can I speak in Portuguese now?

[austere crag]

Guess that's what I get for being born in the Appalachians

[trim wind]

Speak for yourself haha

If multiple languages are a European thing I seem to be a good specimen with being fluent in at least 4

[spiral phoenix]

4

[lament musk]

I used to be fluent in french, but that is somehow gone entirely :|

[spiral phoenix]

probs for the best

[austere crag]

I'm barely fluent in English

[violet horizon]

Posso mesmo falar na minha lingua? :3

[quick hollow]

I'm only fluent in English but I have really basic knowledge in a bunch of other European languages

[pastel jolt]

that's a bit more rude but that works too!

[violet horizon]

it only took them 3 months to deliver a promised launch feature

And next week is the week of THE FINALS beta

At least it kicks off then

[violet horizon]

excuse me what do i have to do to play as a beta tester?

[restive wedge]

Normally you can subscribe for it on the steam page

[austere crag]

Sign up on steam to playtest. #📌┇faq

[last crest]

i already did that

do i have to wait now?

[austere crag]

Yeap

[restive wedge]

Now all you have to is wait for the 7th of March

[last crest]

oh damn

[restive wedge]

Yes I know, the trailer gave me an addiction of something I never had too

[last crest]

im just bored as hell and i dont want to go back to league of legends

it takes happiness out of my life

and only thing that keeps me with this game is addiction

[restive wedge]

I've been there, uninstalled the game some month ago, now i'm finally free haha, courage for you mate

[last crest]

ill try one day

[soft crystal]

It's a true life saver to give up league

[lament fulcrum]

I stay away from Dotas/Mobas and any other 4 letter soul suckers.

I prefer 3 letter soul suckers. ; )

Fps, Rpg and sims.

Diablo 2 was the pinnacle of isometric rpgs.

I'll play that over new stuff all day.

[viral warren]

I'm looking at league and there are like 140 champions dude, how do you even keep up with that? It feels as though I would have to stop playing all other games to have a decent chance at the game.

[untold grove]

why else do you think that league players don’t play that many other games

[viral warren]

There are just too many good games to miss out on 💀

[untold grove]

[lament fulcrum]

The only game I will put that kind of effort into is the finals.

I have no other games on my radar like that.

[near stratus]

is the Logitech C922 good?

[lament musk]

I think the only game that I invested more time than into league is Q3, and I was still rubbish at it, getting old I guess 😅

[topaz depot]

UE Tournament 2004 at like 20 FPS with the family desktop fans screaming. lol

[bleak turret]

C922 Pro is pretty decent for the price tbf

It does not enjoy very dark ambience though, I have to say.

[lament musk]

I always found ut relaxing after playing a lot of q3 somehow

[bleak turret]

The brightness adjustment suffers a bit from that

But doing 720p 60 fps and 1080 30 fps is a pretty nice touch

[near stratus]

thanks for answering, would you recommend any other facecam?

[topaz depot]

After I found Tribes UT always calmed me down lol. Ski shooting rocked my little brain so hard there was a beautiful simplicity to UT

[bleak turret]

Depends on your budget really or what are you trying to achieve? Is it just usual video calls or streaming/recording?

[near stratus]

streaming/recording

[lament musk]

the razer kiyo has been working decently enough for me for wfh at least. I like that it has a led that shows when its on and you have that ringlight that you can turn on. It feels rather expensive even though it has decent resolution

[lament musk]

also, it was the only camera available in my hometown when the lockdown started... literally

[bleak turret]

For budget the C922 Pro is ok-ish...after that it starts getting a little more salty price-wise

[austere crag]

I went to like, every tech store within 2 hours of me when I started college trying to find a camera and couldn't find a single one back in 2020.

I should probably hook the one I got back up at some point

[bleak turret]

The issue for having a streaming/recording camera is that you also need to think about what you care the most

Sometimes used DSLRs will be amazing for recording, but having them up for streaming is terrible due to how the sensors might just get omega toasty

Also I think only canon has really released software for that kind of capture, which isn't great

Which makes you spend more cash on like capture cards

[near stratus]

alright thank you!

[dark chasm]

Is it easy to get the key? I really want to play

[thorny meteor]

Low number of players in alpha test

Its a two egg omelette on sour dough bread and grilled veggies (sweet potato and some kind of carrot/rapé) on a bed of rocket

[umbral turret]

What did you do to namatama D:

[trim wind]

I have a very complicated relationship with rocket.. it tastes and feels like I’m poisoning myself.. getting an allergic reaction of some sort.. but I never stop eating it because greens innit

[fallow bloom]

rocket is just >>>

[trim wind]

Skillet to the yoke

As is tradition

[hoary eagle]

GREENS INNIT 💀

[bleak turret]

but arugula is so tasty

and spice

[fallow bloom]

spicy leaves are so good

better than spicy peppers

[hoary eagle]

y'all can keep them spicy leaves for yourself.

[fallow bloom]

best combo is like crispy pear, rocket and prosciutto ham

[trim wind]

Indeed, but spicy peppers are väldigt mums

[hoary eagle]

indeeeeeed, I like peppers but leaves is meh

[fallow bloom]

I can tolerate some spicy peppers but eh

spicy leaves however just make salads so much better

[trim wind]

Any tealovers? @hoary eagle

Well yeah can't have shoddy guns and guitars out on the frontier.

Idk but that is a good question

Because knowing the US, that's the real deal lol

Lol

[topaz depot]

Knowing the US that thing still probably fires lmao.

[lament fulcrum]

Don't do a chord cuz it can shoot

THE FINALS, an upcoming game by Embark Studios, is set in a futuristic world where players lead their team to victory in intense matches that require quick reflexes, strategic thinking, and precision teamwork. But what's really interesting is how the game incorporates the Byzantine Empire into its wacky and off-beat style.

As players explore the game's richly detailed world, they'll encounter all sorts of strange and unusual characters, including Byzantine cyborgs, futuristic palaces inspired by Byzantine architecture, and even an army of robotic Byzantine soldiers!

But that's not all - the game also features a unique power-up called the "Byzantine Blast," which unleashes a wave of energy that can decimate your opponents. And if that's not enough, players can even unlock a secret level where they travel back in time to ancient Byzantium and battle hordes of zombie Byzantine warriors!

All in all, THE FINALS is a wild and wacky ride that combines sports, action, strategy, and even a bit of Byzantine history for good measure. It's a game that is sure to keep players entertained and engaged for hours on end, with its innovative gameplay mechanics and quirky sense of humor. So why not give it a try and see what all the fuss is about? Who knows, you might just discover your new favorite game!

This is not real pls don't take it seriously

[vivid oar]

BYZANTINE CYBORGS 💀

Honestly this sounds like a high on life typa game

my 5 year old lower-end pc has 16 gigs of ram

so it's acceptable

[trim wind]

16 gb kits are only 25% cheaper

[soft crystal]

also

I'll ask here for tips on building a good pc

a few weeks later

[trim wind]

My sister doesn’t need 32 but paying 130 for 32 gb at 5600mhz vs 100 for 16 gb at 4800mhz..

[tired laurel]

Its so weird how there is a pc and my eyes immediately drift to the cucumber 💀

[soft crystal]

khm zucchini

but yea xdd

But when I replace my gpu I should be ok again haha

[soft crystal]

what would you upgrade first in a 1050ti, i5-8400, 16gb DDR4 2400mhz setup after the gpu

do i need ram or a processor upgrade

[austere crag]

Fractal cases are great

I have one

[soft locust]

ddr5 maybe

Or cpu upgrade

[soft crystal]

I need to know the price of a 4070

nvidia can you just release it already

[soft locust]

https://www.mwave.com.au/product/gigabyte-geforce-rtx-4080-gaming-oc-16gb-gddr6x-video-card-ac58428

This one on sale

[soft crystal]

nah 4080 WAAAY out of price range for me

[soft locust]

What you thiking gpu wise

[soft crystal]

it's 1600 usd here

[soft crystal]

nothing so far, only thinking of upgrading cpu but might need to do the others as well

my money is just limited

[soft locust]

Ahhhh

I'm probably gonna start saving for a pc

i'm gonna be running a 3090 ti with it

You guys got any tips for stuff like cpu and all that?

[trim wind]

I would rather have a 4070 ti than a 3090 ti tbh

Or a 4080

Its just better

I think you have to decide for yourself what you wanna do

[soft crystal]

and cheaper

[soft locust]

Wait which is cheaper

[soft crystal]

4070ti is too expensive for me tho

[soft crystal]

4070ti

[trim wind]

You won’t need more than 8 performance cores if you only wanna play games

But if you edit, wanna stream at the highest quality etc, you might want to get a little more

[vivid oar]

you could always go to the S tier 30 series

[trim wind]

S tier?

[vivid oar]

yeah

i just had to prefix that idk why haha

it's just an S tier series imo

[soft locust]

anyone mind recommending me a 4070 ti

[vivid oar]

in terms generational leap and performance per buck

(msrp)

[trim wind]

They don’t have super cards

[vivid oar]

oh i didnt mean S as in super

[trim wind]

They stopped doing that

Ah

Well S tier is relative to when you buy it haha

[vivid oar]

why did they stop doing thatt hmm

[vivid oar]

i still think it counts now

[trim wind]

Because it was vague and inconsistent

[vivid oar]

ahh true true

some were really good and others just felt like copy paste of faster cards with tweaks

[soft locust]

https://www.amazon.com.au/MSI-GeForce-4070-Gaming-Graphics/dp/B0BHF15JFS/ref=sr_1_11?adgrpid=87249300895&hvadid=591077460430&hvdev=c&hvlocphy=9053248&hvnetw=g&hvqmt=b&hvrand=3981746382932382805&hvtargid=kwd-548539242444&hydadcr=27089_353197&keywords=rtx+ti&qid=1677617874&sr=8-11

Is this a good 4070 ti?

No virus trust

[soft crystal]

wtf didn't know cpus were this expensive, just checked some

[soft locust]

How much were you expecting?

[trim wind]

As long as nobody ever claims there was an S tier 20 series I won’t complain

[soft locust]

1650 ti was best card

[soft crystal]

rethinking it actually nvm

[trim wind]

We got the 7700X for 300

Problem is the motherboards

Nothing under 250

[soft locust]

Ouch

[trim wind]

Ddr5 tax

[soft crystal]

that thing as well

okay imma rethink the whole pc thing

[trim wind]

I don’t think 400 for a mobo and cpu would be that weird

[soft crystal]

was too lazy this whole time to look up what motherboard I have

[soft locust]

Povich

[trim wind]

But rn its 500+

[soft crystal]

but I thought its max 100 bucks

[trim wind]

Hahaha

[soft locust]

You know what cpu is good for 4070ti?

[vivid oar]

i9 13th / i7 13th / i7 12700k

[trim wind]

Sorry I shouldn’t laugh but no 100 gets you a raspberry pi if you’re lucky

[soft crystal]

lmaooo

[trim wind]

13th gen intel or 7000 series ryzen

[soft crystal]

okay I'm buying an 3060ti maximum after checking the prices of these

[vivid oar]

for what resolution btw

[soft locust]

Anyone

[soft crystal]

I guess a 4070 needs more than a 8th gen i5

[soft locust]

perrably 4k

[vivid oar]

well those are good cpu's for long term

[soft crystal]

and I've only calculated prices for the gpu

[vivid oar]

there are alternatives like the new i5

[trim wind]

I wouldn’t go below the 7700X with a 4070 ti because it packs too much punch to neuter with a limited cpu

So 13700K or 7700X (or higher)

[soft crystal]

and what would you recommend for a 3060ti?

[trim wind]

They’ll release the ryzen 7950X3D, 7900X3D and 7800X3D soon, those might be awesome

[vivid oar]

just checked bottleneck calculator for 13700k and (apparently) its 0.1% bottleneck at 1080p

[soft crystal]

my current gpu has a 47% bottleneck lmao

[trim wind]

7600X or anything above a 13400

[vivid oar]

wtf

[soft crystal]

I was absolutely unaware of things and my dad and his friend did the whole 'choose the parts' thing

[trim wind]

It really depends on what you want with it, just gaming with a 3060ti a 7600X is probably enough, hell a 7600 non X might be good enough

[soft crystal]

I'm questioning the trustworthiness of an IT shop owner who says that a 47% bottleneck is good

[soft locust]

Anyone got a motherboard for 4070ti and intel i9 13900k

[soft crystal]

aaand the motherboard...

fk okay I'm done no 4070ti

it was even questionable if I could have bought the card itself, depending on what price tag it would get at launch

[vivid oar]

i5 12th gen,

these should give u a 0% bottleneck with a 3060ti

[soft crystal]

thanks

[vivid oar]

i have an i7-12700kf with a 3060ti and i get an 8% bottleneck

[trim wind]

I will not touch intel 12th gen

[vivid oar]

😂

it is... very hot

even with this stupid fan

[trim wind]

I see a spot for a third fan

[soft locust]

Was the 3070 any good?

[trim wind]

Yeah man

[soft locust]

And would it run with a Ryzen 9 7900X

[trim wind]

Yeah

[trim wind]

Unless you wanna go 4k

Only has 8 GB vram

[soft locust]

Ehhh i don't NEED to go 4k

I kinda just want a pc

[trim wind]

Haha

Well then yeah its perfect

[soft locust]

Sweeet

Can you help me with stuff like ram

motherboard and storage

Actually just the whole pc lmao

[trim wind]

I mean, it depends on your cpu

[soft locust]

I know little to nothing of what i need to get

[lament fulcrum]

1080 is super doable these days

1440p as well

[trim wind]

I have no clue what current gen mobo there is for intel

[soft crystal]

lol according to pc-builds.com an i5-8400 has 0% bottleneck with that card on 1440p, gpu intense tasks

[vivid oar]

ddr5?

[soft locust]

Imma do ryzen not intel

Cause it's cheaper

[trim wind]

3070 will be king at 1440p

[vivid oar]

(edit oh 1440p)

[lament fulcrum]

4k is gonna be expensive, especially if you want frames.

[vivid oar]

DLSS is your only oiption with 4k

[trim wind]

Then you need a B650 or a 670X board

Any will do really, its all about IO

They are so damn expensive that all of them are fine haha

[soft crystal]

what's IO?

[trim wind]

Usb connectors and that kinda jazz

[soft crystal]

oh the sockets on the board?

[trim wind]

B650 is midrange

[soft locust]

@trim wind https://www.amazon.com.au/MSI-B650-Tomahawk-WiFi-Motherboard/dp/B0BDS873GF/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3R8FSAHAW8WPP&keywords=B650&qid=1677618933&sprefix=b650%2Caps%2C244&sr=8-1

[soft crystal]

and its 250 bucks here

dang

[trim wind]

Tomahawk is the golden standard for motherboards, generally has a good balance

[soft locust]

450 here

[soft crystal]

how to check what motherboard you have rn?

[trim wind]

Yeah thats about as low as you can go haha

[soft crystal]

but thats aud isnt it

[vivid oar]

high end MB's are darn expensive 😭

mine was 300 and its like semi-offbrand lmfao

[soft locust]

Yes but not much better

[soft crystal]

yea 450 aud is 108k huf

[trim wind]

So 670X probably has some kind of fancy chipset that has slightly better quality audio or more pcie 4/5 connectors or just more usb ports etc..

[soft crystal]

its 90k here

[trim wind]

You really just have to look at, what do I need

[soft crystal]

so dang unused to multiplying and dividing by 350-400 constantly changing when having to calculate huf-usd, it used to be plain 300 for years before the russia-ukraine thing

[lament fulcrum]

The only Upgrade I need in the near future is a new gpu.

Maybe a power supply.

I have an AMD6600xt.

It's not very good at rt.

[trim wind]

Ramwise just get the highest mhz with the lowest latency.. 5600mhz is sorta the limit that your pc can utilize without overclocking it and even then its diminishing returns (talking ddr5 on ryzen)

[soft crystal]

H310M PRO-VD motherboard, how strong is that?

apparently I have that

[trim wind]

No amd will be good at raytracing in the near future

[lament fulcrum]

Why? : (

[trim wind]

Nvidea singlehandedly made the standard for raytracing in games

[lament fulcrum]

They're so overpriced

[trim wind]

So unless devs (like crytek did) make their own version it won’t be a fair battle ever

[lament fulcrum]

Can I just throw an Nvida card in an all amd rig?

[soft crystal]

nvidia is far more expensive for what its worth compared to amd and im still buying nvidia

[trim wind]

I mean yeah, its a premium they can ask.

[soft crystal]

bc thats what I'm used to

[trim wind]

I still prefer nvidea because I know I’m the guy to use raytracing

But otherwise AMD is insanely good at rasterization (normal way of computing graphics)

[lament fulcrum]

Do amd cpus have good compatibility with nvidia?

[trim wind]

Yeah its fine

No complaints here

[lament fulcrum]

Do I need to check my motherboard if I plan to switch?

Or anything?

Power supply obviously.

[trim wind]

If you had your pc for more than 2 years, don’t bother

[soft crystal]

yea I have that question as well, how does motherboard come into the scene

I'm dumb at pc building

[lament fulcrum]

Elaborate please.

[soft locust]

Anyone got good ram?

[trim wind]

You’ll need to replace anything but your case, fans, maybe storage and if you have a good psu (enough wattage and a decent rating i.e. 80plus gold) then you’re fine

[proud escarp]

what am i gonna need for 360hz?

[trim wind]

Amd just released a new standard this year and intel only supports two generation per chipset (so motherboards can only take two generations of cpus)

[trim wind]

Depends on the game

[proud escarp]

the finals

[trim wind]

No clue, its not released yet

[proud escarp]

is it as intensive as bf2042 for example

[lament fulcrum]

Probably not

[proud escarp]

cuz there i barely manage to stay above 200

[trim wind]

Hmmm it won’t be that intensive I think, smaller maps and less players

[lament fulcrum]

360hz is alot to ask.

Especially for a new game.

That has rt

[proud escarp]

welp im running best of the best hardware and comp settings

[trim wind]

Well rt is optional

[proud escarp]

just tryna see how intensive this title will be

[lament fulcrum]

The minimum specs are in the #📌┇faq

[proud escarp]

doesnt tell enough :/

[soft crystal]

it's kind of intensive at first glance but server-side physics and the alpha was already well-optimized

[proud escarp]

only quality settings but at what refresh isnt stated

[lament fulcrum]

Time will tell.

[trim wind]

Nobody can say for sure

[proud escarp]

this sounds good, ty

[lament fulcrum]

[trim wind]

My guess is that it’ll run very smoothly at 1080p but 360 fps is ALOT

[lament fulcrum]

Seriously.

[trim wind]

Its not csgo or siege

[proud escarp]

well modern standards

[soft crystal]

360fps modern standards?

huh

[lament fulcrum]

1080p 60 just barely became standard.

[soft crystal]

meanwhile me playing on 40

[proud escarp]

my g we've got 540hz monitors coming out in no time

technology moves on

[soft crystal]

it doesn't mean it becomes standard

[trim wind]

Modern standards is 1440p 60 fps I think haha

[lament fulcrum]

Who can even see that many fps?

[proud escarp]

true that

[trim wind]

For csgo players maybe

A game that has been out for 10 years

[lament fulcrum]

I'll be glad if I can hit 165hz.

[trim wind]

Samesies

[proud escarp]

thats a solid sweetspot

[topaz depot]

On max you won't run 360 constant I guarantee it. Turning settings to medium if you are on absolute best hardware at 1080p you might get there but it'll prolly be a little inconsistent.

[trim wind]

Its a shooter so ywah I get why people want higher frames but really anything close to 144hz is pretty pog

[proud escarp]

was just able to snag a 360hz monitor for an awesome deal

thats all

[trim wind]

At 1080p its not outrageous to assume its possible but yeah not released yet so meh

Anyway

Imma sleep

Twas a long day after all

[soft crystal]

I'm going to bed soon

as well

goodnite Povich and thanks for help, we'll def discuss this later

[trim wind]

Sure thing!

[placid turtle]

[fallow bloom]

Google translate should do the trick

[violet horizon]

google translator said little monkey kama

is that good?

[fallow bloom]

They were asking how you were

Little monkey could either be a misinterpretation of your name or just a term of endearment

They seem quite nice tbh

[lament musk]

thats some creative german grammar there

and kleiner affe is rarely a nice thing (unless it is some new internet thing in germany suddenly) xD

[violet horizon]

well i said no...

i didnt know what they were saying xd

[lament musk]

honestly i am not sure either, i am rather certain they werent native germans or just doing translate themselves. the sentence is just broken

[violet horizon]

ah

id rather think they were happy to see me

[fallow bloom]

Honestly I didn’t think about it from that perspective, it makes sense

[fallow bloom]

[austere crag]

whts so special with this channel? eggsecutive language means what?

[soft crystal]

[soft crystal]

it's our off-topic general chat

[austere crag]

so why eggsecutive? can we like swear and stuff?

[soft crystal]

No why would it mean that?

[austere crag]

idk wtf that word means, thats why i am asking

[soft crystal]

.

It's a pun from egg and executive

[austere crag]

ye i got that by now Xd

[austere crag]

yeah ik that, kinda obvious, i dont know what exactly executive means, and i also know that its an off-topic chat

its just the fckin word

bruh its the same in my language just with a k instad of a c when i translate it 💀

[topaz depot]

Just a play on words panpan it's the off topic chat we go here if our conversation isn't directly related to the finals

Home the best place

[sour sequoia]

so, anyone can tell what servers locations we are getting with the closed beta?

[thorny meteor]

#📌┇faq check

na eu and east asia

[sour sequoia]

thanks.

[violet horizon]

what is the purpose of only some regions?

[thorny meteor]

idk

[radiant mural]

Metrics and stability generally. Alpha was less, this is slightly more, open beta if they do it will be even moooore etc

[violet horizon]

but why those

and not others

like... specific ones

[topaz depot]

Most likely cost of servers, the legal mumbo jumbo that goes into large scale server infrastructure across borders, it's probably best practice to grab your projected biggest market share servers first too I bet so these are the servers that were probably ready first.

[thorny meteor]

i never thought of that, very true

[radiant mural]

Texas, Germany, and Tokyo tend to be the most common trio I see devs use for launches. Not sure what we're using here but still

I've even seen betas where they alternated a single server every weekend so it'd switch between EU and NA

[austere token]

Hey y'all,
My name's Evy and I'm apart of an Esports Media Company as their TO. I'd like to know everyone's thoughts on how tournaments could be played --if at all. This could mean anywhere from brackets, to commentating. Love any and all input on the subject; I for one can't wait for this game to be enjoyed by it's awesome community.

[noble lotus]

I've actually been brainstorming quite a bit about that side of things, coming from the world of commentary and esports. I had a whole pitch in my head for a promotional tournament that Embark could host where they invite content creators/streamers to play in a draft invitational where the teams represent the in-game sponsors.

This might be a conversation better housed in one of the on-topic channels too.

[austere crag]

Did someone make you that pfp?

I wish! Someone at work sent it to me, online find I'm sure. Haven't reverse-searched it lol

[trim wind]

Oh

You could always change yourself into cocaine bear

[trim wind]

Take the bear as your pfp and the kids as your background haha

[trim wind]

It is very real and it is very good

[hoary eagle]

Didn't turn out too well but eh

[trim wind]

Hahaha

Wish the clips were the same length

Looks pretty good to me haha

I guess you have to either slow down the bear sneeze or cut the children clip by half or so to make it line up somewhat..

[hoary eagle]

It'll have to do for now 😅

[trim wind]

Maybe just have this then

As the background

[thorny meteor]

but now the pfp doesn't make sense lol

Of course it does.. ok I won’t say no more haha

I see cause > result

don't eat anything too sugary

[trim wind]

Cocaine ain’t sugar Saul haha

It does. You're our version of cocaine bear that isn't a ravaging beast

[rotund gyro]

[hoary eagle]

I can read your mind

[trim wind]

The other option was this

Not gonna do the other clips because they be spoiler-y
