Not all delayed games are good, to be fair.

[elfin sierra]

A delayed game that's most likely just caused by the s is bad

[open chasm]

... except when games somehow are simultaneously delayed and yet still feel rushed to kingdom come when they finally launch

[elfin sierra]

Becuz ppl with the x like me r forced to wait

[fiery python]

Duke Nukem Forever has entered the chat.

[open chasm]

refer to this

[elfin sierra]

I've been waiting for 4 years just to hear it's not gonna be on release

[fiery python]

A little longer on top is nothing if you've waited 4 years.

[elfin sierra]

Yes it is

[fiery python]

Or get a PlayStation ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[elfin sierra]

I wish I did

[elfin sierra]

Plus the fact I wanna play it side by side with my pc friend

N I'm not gonna force him to wait a couple months for me

[fiery python]

I get that it's frustrating when you're waiting for something and it gets delayed further, but it's such a minor thing to get yourself angry about and talk about how it's going to make you 'do sum bad'. There's far worse problems in life.

[versed swan]

love the lord of ring: gollum

[elfin sierra]

Bro it's most likely just a s problem

[open chasm]

forgot that they probably used ChatGPT for that apology card

[fiery python]

More likely just a typo that didn't get picked up as it's still a correct word.

[versed swan]

they did

[elfin sierra]

I'm obviously not going to but ts got me mad

Like Im lowkey been a wukong fan kinda

[versed swan]

the fact cyberpunk launched the way it did after everyone and their mother replied with that fake miyamoto quote under every CDPR post is comical

[open chasm]

Hey, whether Miyamoto said it or not, it's a true quote

[covert iron]

[fiery python]

It was 30-something for me, but my partner got hit with a full 90GB reinstall.

[elfin sierra]

Game was delayed for years

[proven nova]

To be honest, the review system in the Microsoft store is pretty bad

[open chasm]

to be honest, the Microsoft Store is pretty bad. 😂

Needs a huge rework ever since Windows 10.

[bleak robin]

New speakers: installed

[versed swan]

i just mentioned a game that directly disproved the quote 😭

[knotty pond]

what is a win in your opinion? Being better gamer (more precise with mouse n keyboard) or being more comfortable with console's joystick n bed n TV?

it's rly hard for me to learn how to use joystick properly if game is somewhat difficult or complex

[bleak robin]

It’s entirely up to you what you want to be

Anyone can be good with anything, it just takes practice, patience, and dedication

[vocal gorge]

even though I'm on PC I strongly prefer using a controller as muscle memory is just so tuned to that. I have tried to get used to keyboard and mouse but no matter what I've just always found myself to be reaching for a controller

[knotty pond]

I really wonder what should I do until next xbox/psn. I kinda want to play multiplayer games more, but I also want to play on console and TV and bed. I also could easily play with controller games that are simple enough for me, like I like new world and I played MMOs my whole life and New World was easy to play on controller, but then again Throne and Liberty MMO is a lot harder since there are more buttons to press.

[bleak robin]

I use controller for some games, and MnK for others. It’s entirely up to preference and 95% of the time one input method is not better than the other

[knotty pond]

but then again I can't play shooters at all, I am very big noob with controller

but I can play MOBAs for example idk why, even ranged heroes XD

[bleak robin]

When it comes to games with an incredibly high degree of precision, such as certain shooters, MnK can be better, but for a lot of games it doesn’t matter

[knotty pond]

like only problem are shooters and maybe only multiplayer shooters. With singleplayer games I can find my own pace and I am more in tune with the game and not too much stressed out so I can't aim

[bleak robin]

You can’t just pick up one input method and magically “be good” at a game

[bleak robin]

That’s pretty standard for everyone

Just use whichever you feel works best for you. Try one for a couple of weeks then try the other for a couple of weeks and figure out what works best

[knotty pond]

I realized now I can play my PC as well, due to me having ultimate gamepass right now, and I want to try both console and PC CoD6

[bleak robin]

Like I said, I personally use a healthy mix of both

[knotty pond]

do you own PC or only xbox?

[bleak robin]

(Pro tip: you can use controller on pc)

[bleak robin]

I don’t have an Xbox

[knotty pond]

yes, I used that method when I owned 4060 laptop

though only steam worked with it (I had generic xbox controller)

I loved playing New World in bed with laptop n controller

[bleak robin]

No, the irony is not lost on me that I’m in the Xbox server despite not having an Xbox

[vocal gorge]

is there a way to really get used to more keyboard and mouse gaming? as I would like to try for certain games

[knotty pond]

that's why I said some MMOs (my main genre) I can play easily, while some are pretty hard

[short mantle]

I'm looking forward to the BO6 campaign. Treyarch does an excellent job with their campaigns.

[bleak robin]

Just play with it. It’s an adjustment, but like anything else that’s new it takes time to get used to it

Start with something simple, like Minecraft. That way it’s a low-stress environment to practice and you don’t feel pressured by having to perform, like in a multiplayer shooter

[knotty pond]

I owned consoles for just about 6 months now, and I played on PC for my whole life. (I had psn2 when I was young, very young that I barely remember it, my first contact with games xD)

[bleak robin]

I’ve played console for most of my life and only relatively recently got a pc I could game on

[knotty pond]

I was like 4 years old and I remember only one scene (me sitting on the ground and playing Hugo and Sonic I think)

[limpid flicker]

Hey, listen. If one of our mods doesn't need XBOX, then you don't need one either. XBOX is also PCbox.

[knotty pond]

talking about Hugo and Sonic, do you believe that when you grow up, you want to play these games like platformers or 2D games more, just because u grew up and u changed as a person?

[vocal gorge]

hah yeah. True. When I was playing XDefiant for some reason my controller disconnected and I didn't realize until I got into a game that I was playing on keyboard and mouse and surprisingly I didn't do horribly but with how I am on competitive games it wasn't great either 😄

[short mantle]

I have a gaming pc but rarely use it to play games. I prefer consoles. If I do use it for gaming, I always use a controller.

[bleak robin]

[knotty pond]

right... PC is the ultimate machine nowdays and is the best option for gamer, due to PSN releasing games on PC (even day 1) and also gamepass is cheaper and you have free multiplayer. But problem with PC is that if you want 2k or 4k PC you need to pay like above 2.5k euro and it will only last you for 6-7 years, while you can pick console for 500 euro and play 4k for 6-7 years until next console releases. Why would I care so much for the last 2-3 years of console cycle if I am playing 4k resolution on medium settings, while PC as well can't play everything on ultra 4k in last 2-3 years probably.

[bleak robin]

I’m only here for the peeps lol, since I have some friends that vibe here

[vocal gorge]

if a game I play or want to play on my PC somehow doesn't have support for controller there is a good chance I'll not play it or wait and hope controller support is added with a later update though I think the days of stuff like that happening are long gone

[bleak robin]

(It’s also just a nice community)

[knotty pond]

what's your best advice on learning to play controller, I am serious now, best advice

I tried not getting stressed out and slowly aiming in multiplayer with reduced sentisivity

[bleak robin]

Practice and play with it. Dont play high-stress games

[foggy skiff]

I like mouse and keyboard while on PC

[bleak robin]

Play relaxed single player games while you get used to it

[knotty pond]

I think valorant might be good for practise, because you can expect when you need to shoot

[bleak robin]

Don’t play Valorant if you’re still getting used to controller

[knotty pond]

also BF2042 was very good for me, because most of the time I am aiming someone that isn't looking right at me

[bleak robin]

The last thing you want to do is play a high-stress game, especially a multiplayer game

[knotty pond]

I expect delta force will be similar to BF. Can't really tell, but I think I will play it all day and learn to aim finally.

[bleak robin]

Only do that when you’re relatively comfortable with controller

[vocal gorge]

I'd take ToughAlpaca's advice to me about keyboard and mouse and apply it to controller too

[knotty pond]

well I own console for 6 months and I played bunch of singleplayer games already like 10 games.

I played a lot of smite and predecessor

[bleak robin]

If you play a high stress game then you feel pressured to do well. If you’re new to controller then you’re probably not going to do well and it’s going to make you feel worse about it

[knotty pond]

I am not very comfortable, but I think I am getting there

[bleak robin]

You can just call me Bea or Ethan ^~^

[foggy skiff]

hi ToughAlpaca

[bleak robin]

Then play a low-stakes game unless you don’t care about losing or getting yelled at for being bad

[bleak robin]

:( /j

[knotty pond]

honestly I don't care about losing. Think of me as a man in his 50s while I am 25 XD

I don't like to be competitive at all.

[bleak robin]

Well, you’re better than most multiplayer shooter players in that case

(I don’t like losing a lot)

[knotty pond]

when I am competitive, I am trying to be better just because it's the way of that particular game. Point is to win, right?

[vocal gorge]

definitely how I feel when I play any competitive games. Even something as goofy as Fall Guys I want to do well in. When I get competitive it really gets the worst side of me but the competitive shooters are far worse for me 😄

[knotty pond]

but then again I am not competitive at all, so I can take lose and go on like it nothing happened. AND also I don't think high of me at all, if you know what I mean, like I am connected to the truth so I don't really have an ego about that thing.

like why are all the pros calm. because they dont have an ego. they are connected to the truth they know they are good and they can take lose and go on

most of them at least. some still try hard, but that;'s their persona

[vocal gorge]

even the pro gamers are not calm. They play that one game for hours on end that is what makes them so good

[knotty pond]

maybe these types secretly think they are the best of the best XD

[knotty pond]

I mean being in competitive mode vs others is not calm by nature, thats why I dislike it

especially if you get consumed by compulsion

[vocal gorge]

yeah, different people will just react and play differently to each other. As awkward as it may be some may play at their best when they are full on rage mode but oh my get outta their way when they lose 😮 gamer rage is no joke

[knotty pond]

I had cousin that passed away, that would hit us on daily basis, me and my friends I mean. We played dota 1 and we were afraid to kill him in game lol XD

funny when I remember it how pissed we were, just because he was taller and stronger than us

[peak dune]

Can anyone else not purchase anything on the store/in game store. Or just me?

[knotty pond]

we played in some computer store idk why no1 goes there anymore

[vocal gorge]

😦 sorry for your loss Joko

[bitter parrot]

Guys why i can't connect to my network

[knotty pond]

yeah.. It's been 6-7 years so it's fine now I got over it, but yea... Idk how that happened, doctors said some rare virus got into his heart and he died...

anyway... Do you have kids in your town/city that go in these computer caffee stores or how they are called

[vocal gorge]

a sign of the times I think. More people likely have consoles, PCs or mobile devices they can game on and if people can do this from the comfort of their own homes then these stores will see less and less gamers coming to them, ultimately shutting down or putting that space to other use

[knotty pond]

yea, we didn't own PC or consoles at that time

we were like 7 years old, we would go there and play warcraft 3 or dota 1 all the time lol... 1 year after we would go there to play WoW because some older people started that game (private servers ofc - TBC)

imagine telling your mom and dad that you are going to the beach and you would just sit in that PC store all afternoon and play WoW XD

we would buy 1 hour and guy that worked there would give us 3 or 4 hours

good old days, idk if that will happen anymore, I mean someone to give you 4 hours if u paid for 1

imagine playing 1 game for 17 years and just recently you can't play it anymore lol... I hate the fact that I can't enjoy WoW anymore...

new expansion is coming out in like 7 days and I am not feeling any hype

[vocal gorge]

before me and my brother got into PC gaming the closest we would have got to a PC might have been at school or a library and I remember we used to play a browser game called Adventure Quest together at the library we often went to which was a ton of fun but those days sure weren't great compared to now, though I still look back and smile at them. Seeing how things once were to now 🙂

[knotty pond]

adventure quest that old MMO game?

[vocal gorge]

yep

[knotty pond]

yea I know it, never played it though

talking about MMOs, will you play Dune Awakening or Chrono Odyssey. These two are coming in 2025 and are supposedly very big games.

Dune awakening will have it's own opening at gamescom

[desert badger]

Yikes that’s like a 1/3 chance of that being me

[open chasm]

oh, if you're talking about Cyberpunk as it is NOW, then yeah. But I think it's the exception, not the rule.

[vocal gorge]

heard of the Dune game but not sure I'd play either of them tbh. Occupied with Diablo 4 in terms of an MMO though I do love games if they have a loot system in them so if either of those games have that you never know. I like me some shiny loot! 🤩

[foggy skiff]

diablo 4 is an mmo?

[desert badger]

Diablo 4 is a mess

That’s what it is

[versed swan]

also duke nukem forever

and redfall

[vocal gorge]

it has seen some major improvements the past couple of seasons

[desert badger]

It’s genre is mmo-dungeoncrawler-battlepass-boring

I swear the battle pass is like 20% of the games personality

[open chasm]

ok no, duke nukem forever was never fixed and we have yet to see Redfall patched. I think you're misunderstanding the quote

[versed swan]

they both had big delays and never "got good"

[desert badger]

I heard there was confirmation of diablo V not being as long as a wait as diablo IV was

[open chasm]

aaaah yeah now I see what you mean

[desert badger]

So maybe 2026 or 2027 and then we can see some improvements

[open chasm]

Hey, they can be delayed but still rushed. It's all about the management

but i disgress because i go to sleep now

[vocal gorge]

though with those major improvements if you try to build something from a site that does end game builds you might find in the following season that build needs some reworking and if you have multiple classes at level 100 that could be a lot of reworking builds and gear. Next season will probably be no different either especially since the DLC should also release with that and a new class too so likely a major update incoming 😦

[versed swan]

had the benefit of how they could be patches, but like you said there wasn't many, unlike the 90s when miyamoto didn't say that quote and how a game launched would be how a game would be

[scenic sorrel]

Did y'all hear about the alleged leak of over 2.3 billion social security numbers

[fiery python]

Yes

[scenic sorrel]

Does anyone know how true it is

[fiery python]

It was also posted in chat above about 20 minutes ago.

[desert badger]

Everyone here has a 20% chance of being in identity danger

[fiery python]

It's true.

[desert badger]

yikes

[scenic sorrel]

Like was it confirmed

[desert badger]

Was it taken from a global database

Because if so then everyone except NK is at risk

[scenic sorrel]

It's like all over Google

[fiery python]

Scroll up. There's an article you can read.

[scenic sorrel]

As far as I know it's us Canada and England

[fiery python]

We don't use social security numbers in England.

[versed swan]

so... what could actually be done about this

[vocal gorge]

isn't the national insurance number a similar thing?

[desert badger]

uh oh

[fiery python]

It's a similar thing, but we never called them Social Security Numbers.

[desert badger]

They’re all on sale for 3.5 million dollars

That’s a small price for a life times supply of identity thieving

[vocal gorge]

very scary stuff

[scenic sorrel]

So apparently they couldn't get that so they leaked it all

[desert badger]

Oh

[scenic sorrel]

On the darkweb

I would presume

[fiery python]

This kind of stuff doesn't really concern me any more. I've been on the internet for a long time. My data has been in countless site and database hacks at this point.

[scenic sorrel]

Yeah but over 2.3 billion people

[desert badger]

Identity theft is a rough thing

[scenic sorrel]

And it made headlines

[desert badger]

Although it’s a pretty small chance for it to specifically be you

[scenic sorrel]

CBS is even talking about it

[fiery python]

So do most other large scale data leaks.

[desert badger]

2.9 actually 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

[scenic sorrel]

Jeezus

I did say over 2.3 billon

[desert badger]

It was definitely more than 7

Ngl I feel like famous people are more likely to be targeted from this

Or hated politicians possibly

[fiery python]

Not really, because those people are more likely to have the necessary protections in place to prevent it.

[desert badger]

ah true

So anyone with malicious intent will be going through random people’s names

[scenic sorrel]

I really hope this is fake

[fiery python]

It's not really about targeting people. It's about trying to blackmail for money from the organisation or government(s) through threats of leaking the data. Doing so causes panic amongst people and spreads fear.

[scenic sorrel]

And they are just trying to scare everyone

[fiery python]

They don't want to put in the work to try and squeeze pennies out of regular Joe. They want a big payout as ransom for the data.

[desert badger]

Or worse, it’s real and they are just trying to scare everyone

[vocal gorge]

best thing to do is update passwords. I stopped using my easy to remember passwords that could probably be cracked in a matter of minutes or hours and now use a password manager that generates far more sophisticated passwords with upper and lower case letters, numbers and special characters while also avoiding ambiguous characters and being at least 16 characters long - doing this supposedly makes it much harder for said passwords to be cracked though trying to memorize these passwords generated? good luck with that. I gave up trying and just copy and paste them now (from the password manager) 😄

[desert badger]

It’s so easy for them to make a backup and just scam them tho, that’s the thing

It’s not like it’s 600tb, it’s only 277gb

[scenic sorrel]

A password manager won't matter if someone has your literal ssn

[fiery python]

Which is precisely why they don't get the money.

[desert badger]

Mmmmmm

[late wing]

Hello guys

[desert badger]

So now anyone can commit identity theft for free

[fiery python]

Not really

[velvet shadow]

Hi

[desert badger]

well… they leaked all the info online

[late wing]

Is valorant removed from the gamepass?

I can't find it when I searched it on my console

[desert badger]

Valoramt is free regardless

[late wing]

But on my mobile I found it so downloaded it for console

[fiery python]

@late wing Please don't post the same question in multiple channels.

[late wing]

When I opened it was showing an error

[fiery python]

Yes, but that doesn't mean anyone can commit identity theft. It's not exactly a simple thing to do.

[late wing]

Oh ok sorry just had doubt that why

[desert badger]

Tbh it’s not simple to access the files either

Anyone who accesses the files is much more likely to be able to go through with their malicious intents

[fiery python]

It's all just fear mongering and scare tactics.

As long as you keep your personal information as secure as you can and monitor your bank accounts etc, you'll be fine.

Banks have fraud prevention teams for a reason.

[lucid folio]

What does privacy warning mean on wi fi

[desert badger]

I literally have 5 bucks in my bank account

[desert badger]

Means your wifi is insecure and can be hacked I think

[ripe grotto]

We’re minecarts in Minecraft updated to be faster

[fiery python]

Although I do that voluntarily sometimes.

[vocal gorge]

I don't freak out about it either but I do worry that my mum or brother could get caught out by some scams. They really are becoming more advanced and evil. There is even a show on TV in the mornings where the broadcaster tries to help people not fall for them and these evil scammers mostly target the vulnerable. Makes me wish I could get into fighting these scammers and give them a dose of their own medicine 😦

what are yalls opinion on the new fortnite season? trash imo

[ripe grotto]

Idk haven’t played in a while

Sadly haven’t been asked by friends to play

😔 kinda sad

[young fog]

No opinion, Ive only ever played one fortnite match (last week, and somehow won haha)

[fiery python]

The new season that has been live barely an hour or so?

[young fog]

Going to quit my fortnite career on a highlight

[sterile sequoia]

Currently in spain so can’t check it out

[fiery python]

You're declaring it trash already when it literally just launched.

[lucid folio]

Minecraft

[shut holly]

it wasnt an hour

its 11 rn for me and it dropped at 6

[fiery python]

Well it wasn't live when I checked a bit over an hour ago.

But still, even going off what you say, that's 5 hours. Pretty silly to declare something that's due to last until November 2nd to be trash after 5 hours.

[lyric jetty]

yeah servers only just came up 51 minutes ago

not 5 hours ago, 5 hours ago is when downtime started

Nope

[ripe grotto]

Could you take a picture of the port and the cord that in it?

I could probably help

[ripe grotto]

Not a release switch?

[fiery python]

Get a pin or something similar. Put it into the top and push it down onto the top of the cable to press down the release catch.

[tired hare]

Just check for a youtube video on the same ones and read reviews

[tame vortex]

Still no luck, got a thing wedged into it but it stubborn.

[lyric jetty]

yeah a small amount of maps, modes and weapons in multiplayer only

[tired hare]

It was about the ethernet cable having a joke

[ripe grotto]

Kinda inappropriate

[tired hare]

Maybe not a very funny joke

Joko, when are you going to learn to stop posting rumours and leaks?

[knotty pond]

what is leak here? XD

[fiery python]

I'm obviously not going to discuss the details am I?

[knotty pond]

okay...

[fiery python]

If there is no official announcement about something from Microsoft/Xbox, then just don't post it. Especially if it includes anything from Jez Corden.

[knotty pond]

can I get with a warning this time, I didn't know they leaked something here, I just started watching it

[hollow hawk]

REAL
I especially hate those robotic tiktok voices you hear everywhere now

Then maybe consider that you don't post something until you've finished watching it.

[orchid garden]

Nice

[tame vortex]

Still stuck in the port.

[ripe grotto]

Rip

[tame vortex]

Tried sliding a pin in and it won't budge.

[ripe grotto]

Did you try wiggling it out?

[fiery python]

You need to press down - or up, depending on which way the cable is in - on the locking lever that is keeping the cable in.

[tame vortex]

Yep same thing.

I’m watching Peak atm Star Wars the clone wars with Darth maul

[heavy sundial]

when I want to install the game, it says "currently unavailable" it was previously available on Gamepass, but it has been unavailable for 8 months now. If I buy a digital key, will I be able to install and play it?

should I wait 10 years to play it?

[ripe grotto]

Ugh I’m hungry but don’t wanna wake anyone up

[lunar tartan]

If it’s no longer on gamepass you will need to buy the game

[heavy sundial]

"currently unavailable" so I want to make sure that I won't buy it and won't be able to install it XDD

[static jacinth]

Hello

[lunar tartan]

It’s not available because you don’t own it

Might be best over in #pc-gaming , Joko

[static jacinth]

Y'all must eat loud 😭

[knotty pond]

okay, won't post anymore

[lunar tartan]

Making food makes noise too

[shell basin]

i think a ham and cheese sandwich is not going to make that much noise

[ripe grotto]

Microwaves go: mmmmmmmmmmmmm loudly

[static jacinth]

Shouldn't be enough to wake someone up

[shell basin]

I personally love those kinds of easy sandwiches

[shell basin]

Don’t forget about the ending BEEEEEEP BEEEEEEP BEEEEEEP

[ripe grotto]

Haha

[static jacinth]

Pull it at a second left

[ripe grotto]

The door is loud

[static jacinth]

Then don't eat, idk what else to tell you

[shell basin]

Every second counts when you microwave something. that one second can cost you extra flavor

[lunar tartan]

Y’all clearly either don’t realize how much noise it does take make food 😅 I’ve woken family members up before making food just for simply walking into the kitchen

[shell basin]

I can hear my coffee machine from two rooms away, that’s indeed loud

[static jacinth]

Gotta work on that stealth skill

I would recommend playing Hitman for the stealth.

Can’t hear you it’s the internet 😛

[static jacinth]

Bring cod back to how it used to be 🙏🏼

[lunar tartan]

What about old cod do you like?

[static jacinth]

The atmosphere, the gameplay, and the story

The community has been telling them over and over we aren't happy with the current games, and they don't care 😔

[lunar tartan]

I don’t want the atmosphere from old CoD 😅 I don’t like being called slurs

[static jacinth]

You are the type of person to get mad at WaWs campaign😭

[lunar tartan]

But I can get behind old gameplay and story 💯

[lunar tartan]

No one should feel comfortable being called slurs and hateful things

[static jacinth]

Better than how things are now

[proper mountain]

@static jacinth do you like the black ops 3 campaign

[serene hazel]

just got contra and batman arkham on sale

[static jacinth]

Nobody does 😭

[mild rock]

Future games will be just online ones

[static jacinth]

"train go boom"

[lunar tartan]

No it’s not better than it is now. At least now I can go into lobbies and not be called names

i wanted to complete it to have an achievement backround

[static jacinth]

Have you been considered using the mute or block button

[knotty pond]

everyone misses old games xD

[fiery python]

While mute and block options are available, that's not the solution. The issue is people behaving the way they are and that needs to be stopped.

[static jacinth]

Kat doesn't apparently

Because people are too mean on them 😔🙏🏼

[fiery python]

I think you both need to stop

[proper mountain]

rhinne i think your old profile picture was better

[static jacinth]

Are you gonna get your Xbox AI to record me? And ban me

[fiery python]

We won't tolerate people glorifying abusive behaviour or ignoring the real issue.

The people on the receiving end of the abuse are not the problem

[static jacinth]

Classic Xbox move

[knotty pond]

what did it say about Kat?

[lunar tartan]

How about you don’t talk about me when I am literally right here

[static jacinth]

That's crazy

[fiery python]

This topic is done.

[static jacinth]

Would you prefer to talk about you while you aren't here?

[fiery python]

@static jacinth I said it's done. That means you stop.

[knotty pond]

Kat moved on with era, that is a good thing. I know I miss old WoW because I am stupid to not accept changes

[static jacinth]

Changes that are bad

[knotty pond]

Not really bad, some are, but most are not bad.

[static jacinth]

And changes that have hurt the community

[knotty pond]

Did you ever feel old games, most of them felt empty and hollow?

[static jacinth]

They didn't?

[knotty pond]

today you flourish with life playing new modern games. You are infused.

[static jacinth]

They actually released completed

Not a half finished buggy mess

[knotty pond]

no you clearly have no idea what internet would look like in alternative history. It would eat your soul alive.

[limpid flicker]

There is a certain era of really, really old games (NES or older) where I wonder "what did we even like about these?"

[knotty pond]

you clearly have no idea on this topic, so I will just quit talking. You don't see the bigger picture.

[static jacinth]

You are trying to pull a fast one on me and it isn't working

[static jacinth]

It's what they had back then 🤷🏻‍♂️

[limpid flicker]

What WE had, I was there. I liked them too.

[static jacinth]

I started on the ps2

[knotty pond]

every old timer lacks intelligence to adapt to new age. same goes with games, with me however it's different. I see whole picture yet again I miss old wow (only because of economy though)

[shell falcon]

Hello everyone

[static jacinth]

Because games suck nowadays

[knotty pond]

but I dont miss old singleplayer games at all.

[limpid flicker]

And now I don't get it. There's a few standouts from that era which still pretty much hold up, but most of them at best you can say they "showed promise".

[umbral hull]

Why does this matter?

[static jacinth]

(A lot of them)

[knotty pond]

nor do I miss old shooters or MOBAs

only WoW and Wow particuallary due to economy

[idle spear]

Not sure if I have ever finished any NES game, they are all hard

[static jacinth]

He's claiming call of duty doesn't suck now

And the old games were bad

[shell falcon]

Today you could play old games on your phone or calculator

[umbral hull]

It's been trash since 2016

[ripe grotto]

I beat Link to the past so that counts

[knotty pond]

I am looking from perspective of life, you are looking from ordinary perspective only looking about how game feels to you, not the universal feel

[idle spear]

That's snes

[static jacinth]

Omg, a reasonable person 🙏🏼

[ripe grotto]

Ooh

[umbral hull]

The last good COD I enjoyed was BO3 prime

[idle spear]

I've finished plenty on SNES but NES just feels a bit too old now to enjoy

[static jacinth]

Bo1 bo2 and the og mw games were peak

[pastel hollow]

vanguard is my favourite cod

[static jacinth]

WaW too

[umbral hull]

💀

[pastel hollow]

what

[static jacinth]

I'm severely concerned for you

[shell falcon]

SNES and NES are fun but really hard

[ripe grotto]

Reason why they were so hard is because they wanted you to play longer

[knotty pond]

one more thing, old games would build heretic people, new games breathe life into people and they are much more humane. older games would build morality. with older games and alternative history people would not evolve, with new modern design people will evolve. what else you want?

[pastel hollow]

it has the stg from waw ‼️

[static jacinth]

Play WaW then

[sinful cove]

why that game is 310gb?

[static jacinth]

It's a far better game

[lunar tartan]

Very well said

[sinful cove]

what is in it for 310gb

[pastel hollow]

nope cause vanguard is super good

[limpid flicker]

Excuse me, but this sounds really confusing.

[umbral hull]

Just because a gun is in multiple games doesn't mean it's from WAW

[static jacinth]

Their land Their Blood😡

[pastel hollow]

world at war invented it

[knotty pond]

kinda is because there's lots into it. And it is really hard to explain 🙂

[static jacinth]

I'm not saying that

[umbral hull]

Absolutely not

[pastel hollow]

yeah

[static jacinth]

I said play WaW because it's better than vanguard

[limpid flicker]

What stands out to me aboout old games when looking back, is that almost nobody used to beat old games. Without the benefit of save states, who among us was legitimately beating NES games?

[pastel hollow]

i love mw2 2022

[static jacinth]

Can you stop trolling

[trail harness]

SimCity on SNES broke that pattern by introducing a more relaxed game. As such it was one of my favorites.

[pastel hollow]

nah im not its top 3 cods for me

[static jacinth]

You are just listing off the most hated cod games saying they are your favorite

I know what you are doing

[lunar tartan]

Lots of people like older games because of nostalgia. They don’t really care about growth or how well the games play. It has nothing to do with the actual quality as much as them just wanting to go back to the time

[pastel hollow]

i dont hate them

[shell falcon]

Hi

[lunar tartan]

Ironic

[umbral hull]

There wasn't a reward when you beat a game on old games lol

[pastel hollow]

because they want to say the n word and not get in trouble

[limpid flicker]

Seems possible maybe they just have different tastes than the majority.

[static jacinth]

Literally 1984

[trail harness]

It can also be from there being no newer equivalent in some cases.

I'll have you know that when Samus took her helmet off, that was all the reward I could ever have asked for.

[static jacinth]

Like cod, the games have fallen off more and more

[knotty pond]

when I tried GTA SA definitive edition it felt so empty, and every old game feels hollow for some reason. That feeling cannot evolve people and would such their life soul right out of them alive.

[tired hare]

1941 in Poland 👀

[pastel hollow]

what about gta 4

[umbral hull]

Not worth completing a nostalgic game

[static jacinth]

They are gonna send you to the camp if you keep talking like this about them 😢

[knotty pond]

gta 4 is where things started changing slowly. with whole gaming

[idle spear]

SNES games just seemed better than NES in every way and you could even finish some of them

[lunar tartan]

That’s not funny

[knotty pond]

im talking about 2000s

[tired hare]

But I donated 3 dollars 😔

[static jacinth]

😱

[pastel hollow]

didnt gta 4 release in like 2007

[tired hare]

[limpid flicker]

That is a disgusting reference to make.

[pastel hollow]

2008

[static jacinth]

3 freedom eagles

[knotty pond]

I mean just compare gtaV and SA or vice city, cmon, you can't say older games were better. Maybe games from 2014 are better for you, but it might not be for the best of community.

[ripe grotto]

GTA V in 2013

[knotty pond]

rockstar was really ahead lol

things started changing during 2010s, and newer era started around 2018 I would say

[ripe grotto]

[lunar tartan]

Making holocaust jokes/references like that isn’t funny

[tired hare]

No one even mentioned it but you

[ripe grotto]

Bro reacted to himself

[limpid flicker]

Yeah, SNES was the start of the process where games would be created with the assumption that people could beat them. Not every games, but as I said it was a process. We were moving away from the design to eat quarters in an arcade, to the design to entertain and engage.

[tired hare]

Fr tho

[static jacinth]

Remember what we practiced?, use the block button

[pastel hollow]

what about cod emblems with members of a certain organisation on them

[tired hare]

Good times 😭

[static jacinth]

Or people of a certain color

[lunar tartan]

I’m talking about in this server

[pastel hollow]

idk what youre talking about dude

[tired hare]

I agree

[static jacinth]

Yeah because you play vanguard

Where everything is censored

[pastel hollow]

My xbox cant run it

[tired hare]

😭

[knotty pond]

I can also compare old WoW and new WoW. old wow feels empty again, every game that I tried before looks empty and that's devs problem. devs evolved with time as well.

[pastel hollow]

ill install bo2 and 3 for you pal

[tired hare]

Or guns bolt goes through the back of the gun and smacks ur hand 😭

[knotty pond]

counter strike same. dota same. lol same.

[static jacinth]

Or a piece of female anatomy

[knotty pond]

even bf looked empty, people just miss their time being kids where they had much more energt and motivation.

[tired hare]

You are loll

[fiery python]

Right, this is going a bit too far now.

[pastel hollow]

Who

[knotty pond]

people cannot agree that older games are finished and there is no way returning to that even if they designed muscular games again.

[pastel hollow]

ill cry myself to sleep instead of muting them 😪

[knotty pond]

u clearly have no idea why all this was needed yet you are full of words.

[fiery python]

[lunar tartan]

If you were owner so many people would jump ship lol

[tame vortex]

@ripe grotto okay so the ethernet port on my laptop is kind of okay, it is very loose though so what I've done is carefully pushed it back in and left it like that.

Many of the dogs ive met in my life were always kind and sweet u3u

[lunar tartan]

I woke up feeling kinda sick today

[limpid flicker]

Are you a saucy and mean cat?

[ripe grotto]

Oh nooo hope you feel better

[trail harness]

cats can be funny when they get a little silly too

[fierce orbit]

Mhm. But look. If i try to pet them. And they claw, hiss and bite me. I hate them

[fiery python]

They can be complete menaces too like mine today

Do not talk about things like that @sharp pewter

[lunar tartan]

You have a dog?

[sharp pewter]

No

[fierce orbit]

Not atm. I cant look after one financially

[trail harness]

understandable.

[limpid flicker]

I could never walk a dog every day. Hell, I can't walk myself every day.

[sharp pewter]

just sharing

[fierce orbit]

I have been jobless since February...

[fiery python]

Share things that are appropriate.

[ripe grotto]

I’ve been jobless since like 1 and a half years ago

[fierce orbit]

Rhinne. Am i allowed to share something sad if i spoiler it or nah? Its what folks around where i live use to do with kittens

[fiery python]

With how you've phrased that, please don't.

[fierce orbit]

You got it

[fiery python]

I don't know why I have to say this, but discussions of animal abuse are not welcome here.

[fierce orbit]

Yeah tbh. People back in the day were cruel to animals...

[sharp pewter]

What do humans and sharks have in common

[radiant surge]

sure why not cause i probably shouldnt finish the joke

[fiery python]

@fierce orbit Seriously, get off the topic of mistreatment

[lunar tartan]

It’s Friday! Which means we survived another week!

[sterile sequoia]

Whoo

[sharp pewter]

Rhinne can you put games back on gamepass

[trail harness]

fumo Friday

[green laurel]

Lol

[ripe grotto]

GTA 6 better have cars locked while people are driving because there is no way you can just open any car door on a highway

[sterile sequoia]

Oops wrong emoji

[lunar tartan]

Rhinne isn’t able to do that

Nor can anyone in this server to that for that matter

[fiery python]

No one here is able to do that.

[green laurel]

Rhinne just call phil up 😛

[trail harness]

that would kinda ruin the general vibe of the game

[sharp pewter]

whos phil

[fierce orbit]

Thoughts on Tango Games being revived?

[green laurel]

Good

[idle spear]

Yeah glad they won’t be getting closed

[lunar tartan]

I’m glad this isn’t the end for hifi rush

[sterile sequoia]

I just want the to create chaos in gta6 just like we all do in gta5 and rdr2

[idle spear]

Weird situation though

[fierce orbit]

Saaammme. Hopefully we can get more Ghostwire and Evil Within.

I would highly recommend trying Ghostwire Tokyo. Small and fun game

[lunar tartan]

For the sake of my sanity and everyone else here I just hope GTA6 doesn’t get delayed

[sharp pewter]

shooting happy families with an rpg

[green laurel]

Tango dont have the IPs of them Microsoft still owns

Ghostwire 2 if it ever gets made is getting my money thrown at it ASAP

[fierce orbit]

Sadly...and i dont think theyll do anything with it...

One day i hope tho :>

[trail harness]

I want more games with that kind of Japanese mythology integration in them

[fierce orbit]

Ive had this idea for a while. Ghostwire taking place in diffrent places around the world

Ghostwire Mexico City. With Aztec Spirits
Ghostwire London with Norse Spirits

[lunar tartan]

I’m pretty sure the company that took tango mentioned doing stuff with hifi rush by name

[green laurel]

Yes they own tango amd hi fi rush now

[lunar tartan]

Maybe I am confusing myself lol

I just hope if we get a second hifi rush game that it is just as good if not better

[limpid flicker]

So wait, does this affect Hi-Fi rush being on Game Pass?

[fiery python]

It shouldn't do as Xbox published it.

[sterile sequoia]

Going to get a xbox series x pretty soon, regret selling my series s one year ago, just waiting till my paycheque comes in. Also getting it mainly to play gta6 in the future

[limpid flicker]

I'm very glad for them that they got rescued.

[lunar tartan]

Oh yeah that’s right Bethesda published that

[trail harness]

I generally don't sell my stuff as I know I would likely regret it later on

[trail harness]

fr they did not deserve to close down

[tame vortex]

Looks like BO6 for PS5 is 172GB.

[idle spear]

Guess it will be like how sunset overdrive is on gamepass even though Sony owns Insomniac now

Not sure who actually owns sunset overdrive IP now

[limpid flicker]

I would give so much for a sequel.

That game is stupid in all the best ways.

[sterile sequoia]

Yeah sold it since u barely used it since i got a gaming pc, but im affraid my pc wont run gta6 as good as on a console

just ordered an iPad air too going to try cloud gaming too and using it for notes mainly and youtube

[lunar tartan]

I should probably update Fortnite for later today but that means moving 😩

[idle spear]

If you mean sunset yeah was a lot of fun!

[tired hare]

Yo I used my xbox gamepass 3 months thingy, redeemed it on my pc but nothing has shown up on my xbox

Someone help

[sterile sequoia]

It is pc only the code you got

[cinder veldt]

Who said you have to move? Why not rely on the totally functional auto update feature of Xbox

[tired hare]

Got it off discord

[lunar tartan]

You need ultimate if you want both

[sterile sequoia]

Yup pc gamepass only

[tired hare]

I just wanted r6 lmao

[lunar tartan]

Buy gamepass ultimate then

[tired hare]

Haven't got £15

[lunar tartan]

We not have it turned on

[cinder veldt]

Just because I looked down on the feature, my Fortnite just had to be updated already

[limpid flicker]

I did mean Sunset Overdrive. I loved it.

[tame vortex]

Hard truth is if you don't have money for games you shouldn't be gaming, try to find a job, earn wages and then you can support that hobby.

[cinder veldt]

It doesn't always work anyway, but it's neat when it does. Why do you not have it on?

[lunar tartan]

Kylie has a reason but I don’t remember why

[cinder veldt]

Probably it not working always

[limpid flicker]

Yeah... you don't need outrageous money to support gaming, but if the price of Game Pass is too much then you just can't do it.

[cinder veldt]

@mellow roost is it that?

[tired hare]

Is the two week one for a pound still avaliable

[shell falcon]

Game pass ultimate or core?

[tame vortex]

Should be.

[lunar tartan]

On my series s when I had it on I had issues with it bad

[lunar tartan]

If you have never had gamepass ultimate before

[tired hare]

Pc gamepass

[thick merlin]

@tame vortex dm

[limpid flicker]

Yes. Either should be affordable to most people. Hell, even on government assistance Game Pass Ultimate is probably in reach of many folks.

[shell falcon]

I can give you 1 month pc game pass if you want

[tame vortex]

Sure :3

[tired hare]

Nah I need xbox

Don't need pc, I claimed xbox gamepass pc for 3months

Thanks tho

[shell falcon]

Ok

[lunar tartan]

@cinder veldt I was wrong she does have auto update on

[cinder veldt]

Yeah it certainly isn't a perfect feature

[tame vortex]

#xbox-game-pass and wait for a code to be dropped in there if you have patience.

[thick merlin]

@tame vortex dm

[cinder veldt]

Oh lol, either she has fallen or she always had ot

[tame vortex]

Yes I know, I know.

[lunar tartan]

I just didn’t realize lol

[shell falcon]

Goodnight everyone, take care, bbl

[tired hare]

Gn

[lunar tartan]

I’m hoping I get a new phone in 11 weeks there’s a sick skin for mobile users

[tired hare]

Can't be asked with iphones

Get a samsung, make life easier for urself

[west pebble]

People have different taste of phones.

[lunar tartan]

1. a phone is a phone 2) don’t tell strangers what to do

[west pebble]

I use Samsung because I've been using the service for years.

[tired hare]

True some ppl still got a Nokia

[west pebble]

Never heard of nokia, old phone?

[tired hare]

Lmao yh

[west pebble]

I gotta look that up.

[green laurel]

Never heard of nokia

I feel old now smh

[ripe grotto]

A Nokia can literally survive being nuked

[west pebble]

Lol.

[lunar tartan]

You know what makes me feel old? Me being older than Baja Blast 😅

[limpid flicker]

I like how you have no idea what he's getting anyway.

[lunar tartan]

Right that too

[green laurel]

Im older thanks

[sterile sequoia]

What phone are you getting?

[cinder veldt]

You aren't in the EU

[ripe grotto]

Xavier meme are so funny sometimes

[lunar tartan]

Did you see the challenge? it isn’t an EU exclusive

[trail harness]

real

[cinder veldt]

Wait it's not all of a sudden? Or did I fall for false information?

[lunar tartan]

Android phones have Fortnite mobile

[raw quail]

Android worldwide, iOS Eu

[cinder veldt]

Oh I'm slow, the articles framed it really badly

[lunar tartan]

They’d never make something exclude to just the EU lol

[cinder veldt]

Only the US

[raw quail]

I thought it was iOS only too

[limpid flicker]

Whenever the EU say "Hey, you need to change this" corpos complain bu they do it anyway.

[cinder veldt]

No like I knew it was android and iOS, but the articles didn't specify android had worldwide

[sterile sequoia]

Ios doesnt have fn support for years or is apple supported again?

[limpid flicker]

Too big a market to ignore.

[raw quail]

iOS has sideloading in the EU now

[sterile sequoia]

Oh yeah forgor abt that

[raw quail]

iOS, but not iPadOS....

[lunar tartan]

That’s not how that happened. It’s gonna be on the App Store

[idle spear]

Ah didn’t know you could play Fortnite on iOS again but that’s cool

[lunar tartan]

Side loading is a feature that’s gonna end up on all iPhones eventually

[raw quail]

No...?

[cinder veldt]

oh wait really? looks like I'm not getting the skin then

[raw quail]

It's on the Epic Game Store, not App Store

[lunar tartan]

It’s literally been accepted for the EU iOS App Store

[limpid flicker]

Wow really? That blows.
Of course I'm unclear if my country would get the same treatment, because you know.

[lunar tartan]

It’s not a side loading thing

[limpid flicker]

Have you two thought about forming a comedy duo called Kit & Kat?

[sterile sequoia]

Kitkat

[ripe grotto]

Kit-Kat

[ripe grotto]

Kit got summoned woah

[sterile sequoia]

https://tenor.com/view/kit-kat-break-break-time-breaks-are-good-give-me-a-break-gif-12380930

[cinder veldt]

I'm kinda surprised though how fortnite wouldn't make some quests EU exclusive when they've had stuff as good as US exclusive in the past

[lunar tartan]

OH! The plan changed? It was advertised differently at first

[fiery python]

It's been EU only on iOS all along.

[lunar tartan]

No I know that but it was sounding like an App Store thing not an Epic store thing. At least that’s how I read it

[fiery python]

They're launching it only in their only Epic store, not the general app store. So on iOS that's currently in the European Union only.

They plan to launch in the UK in late 2025 when the UK introduces similar new laws.

Everything I've seen has mentioned it being the Epic store.

For those on iOS outside of the EU the skins and items will be in the item shop later on.

[lunar tartan]

I haven’t followed up since it was first talked about. I figure I may have just assumed or something

[lunar tartan]

It’s also worldwide on android

[fiery python]

I know, that's why I specified iOS

[shell basin]

i love kitkat, not only because they taste good but also because it was the reason why the best version of Android imo is a thing

[lunar tartan]

Yeah but you can get that skin from android too. If I can’t get a new phone before then I’ll just see if I can use Kylie’s phone to do it 😅

[idle spear]

Ah yeah just tried it can’t download as we are not in EU anymore lol

[fiery python]

Sure, but not everyone has both platforms. So those who are on iOS outside the EU can buy the items at a later date.

[cinder veldt]

I wonder if sideloading it on my iOS device would also remove the original fortnite thing or if I get another one

[shell basin]

Fortnite mobile is still a thing now?

[lunar tartan]

Ohhh I see what you’re saying

[wild locust]

it it just me or microsoft is in indian right now ?

[fiery python]

Microsoft is in a lot of countries.

[wild locust]

no like im saying whenever i go to the website it is in indian

[keen ridge]

What we talking about?

[fiery python]

Read chat and see.

[fiery python]

Change the language in the lower corner.

[green laurel]

You got through to tech support 😛

[hearty plinth]

What is everyone doing this weekend?

[cinder veldt]

not much tbh, seeing the deadpool movie on sunday

[tired geyser]

Does this mean Fortnite iOS

Is coming back

[keen ridge]

Apple had to allow third party App Store and change to lightening ports due to EU laws

[fiery python]

Within the EU yes.

[tired geyser]

I wish the uk never left

[hearty plinth]

Oh well it will hopefully go worldwide with epicgames mobile app on both ios and android

[tired geyser]

Yeah

[keen ridge]

Wont be for a while most likely.

[wild locust]

i dont see it

[hearty plinth]

Im thinking same thing

[velvet turret]

oh right i cant say that :/

[wild locust]

its saying im in lithuania

[fiery python]

Apple is not going to allow third-party app stores unless they are forced to do so.

[keen ridge]

We are getting RCS with iOS 18.

In terms of dev program it’s the worse update yet with overheating they fixed it after the first two updates though.

Lots of good features though.

[idle spear]

Yeah seems like a good thing as well. Lightning was really getting behind the times

[hearty plinth]

Is lightning the same as usb c or different things not a apple user im just curious

[keen ridge]

Was a. Good choice to switch to usb c so I enjoy it 🙂

[dapper kernel]

a

[idle spear]

It’s USB2.0 speeds unless on a few iPads that had 3.0 I think

[vocal gorge]

I've noticed Apple sell a charger that supports two devices at once and been wondering if it is worth getting that since at times I have to charge both my iphone and airpod pro 🤔

[idle spear]

And 2.0 is slow……

[cinder veldt]

Actually, now I wonder if I were to download Fortnite on my phone. Would it overwrite the old install that was from Samsung store originally

[ripe grotto]

Anyone got a picture of this season’s map of Fortnite?

[keen ridge]

All current new devices have usb c my new iPad Pro have usb c then my mother AirPods have them and so on.

[idle spear]

iPad 9 was the last one with lightning I think

[sterile sequoia]

Only my iphone has a lightning port, airpods and ipad have usbc

Cant wait till I get home to unbox the ipad tho

[fierce orbit]

Question..is Atomic Heart and Immortals of Aveum any good?

[idle spear]

I’m pretty mixed on atomic heart, not played immortals yet

[haughty osprey]

Is anyone getting an issue with Fortnite that keeps saying that cross play is turned off on Xbox when it’s not?

[lunar tartan]

Do you have it on quick resume? If so fully quit out of Fortnite and try again

[haughty osprey]

No it’s not

oy moderators

can I talk about my XDX XNA Xbox 360 Dev Kit or does that fall under rule 12.

[raw quail]

The only kit you can talk about is me

[main pagoda]

am I going to get an actual answer.

[sage ice]

If you are a dev, nothing wrong with using dev kits.

if you are using a dev kit to do scetchy things, that breaks rule 12

[main pagoda]

define sketchy

[dapper kernel]

Amsterdanche Football Club Ajax

[fiery python]

If you're asking it to be defined, then you're clearly not using it legitimately so best to move on from the topic.

[raw quail]

Bacon cheeseburger with fries

[main pagoda]

Well I can't use it legitimately anymore because the indie program that I signed up for is gone and I can't upload any games to the marketplace.

It's a 1.7k five pound brick in my basement.

[fiery python]

It's a brick you can not talk about any more.

[sterile sequoia]

With bbq sauce?

[raw quail]

Nope~

[fiery python]

kosu, just stop before the hole gets deeper.

[sterile sequoia]

Oh

I want to like it, but I always just get a feeling of "oh..." when I have it

[sterile sequoia]

Netherlands mentioned

[main pagoda]

I signed up for the Indie program in 2011, got the console and made a game. I don't use it for those reasons, it only serves as an expensive paperweight.

[fiery python]

Yes, you said.

[sage ice]

thought about developing for the Series console now instead? There is still Indie support there.

[main pagoda]

it doesn't have the same charm as the 360 did.

[fiery python]

Make a retro game.

[main pagoda]

I can't really use the awesome custom avatar rigs anymore.

Unless there was a way to intergtate the Xbox 360 dash and/or files to get the original rigs back.

[fervent fiber]

I’m bored

[raw quail]

Have you noticed how PS1 era graphics are the new retro look, rather than pixel art? Just skip ahead a few generations and make Xbox 360-ish retro games

[fervent fiber]

Anybody play the new Fortnite season yet?

[main pagoda]

I could try to copy the bright art style of the 360. Idk.

[raw quail]

Yeah I played a bit and got annoyed when I remembered how the accuracy works in Fortnite

[main pagoda]

Are the tools still the same or do I have to use Unity?

[raw quail]

In CoD you get recoil, in Fortnite you get recoil + RNG bloom

[lunar tartan]

I love how Fortnite accuracy works 🙄

[raw quail]

You love not knowing where your bullets are going to land?

[lunar tartan]

That’s an eye rolling emoji lol

CSGO accuracy

[lunar tartan]
