Yeah sure

[inland oasis]

well, id agree in a racing game, its competitive but the "automation" is so basic it doesnt make you "win" it helps you control yourself

Isn't Gran Turismo EA'd now?

It doesn't matter how skilled you are because you can always just flip a switch and make the car drive itself.

if your not able to beat people using a Bot thats terrible at driving, then racing aint your thing

[dry copper]

Imagine Twisted Metal with BeamNG

The closest thing to Twisted Metal that exists nowadays is that goofy 40k ork game, lol

Death Rally? Remember that? 😄

Music Rally in GT7 is really cool

But it's still fun to blast someone who passes you with a rocket

[marble idol]

I can beat them just fine, despite being 90% blind in my left eye, thanks. If you don't see why letting the car drive for you in a fucking RACING GAME then RACING GAMES definitely aren't for you.

[inland oasis]

who are you to judge someones passion just cuz they can or cant do it

[marble idol]

This is exactly why too much accessibility is a bad thing, it attarcts people who aren't interested in the genre and they dillute it for everyone else.

[inland oasis]

IN A VIDEO GAME

just cuz you cant doesnt mean you shouldnt ever be able to

[marble idol]

Someone who's been playing racing games since the 90's, and someone who enjoys a challenge... you know... the core foundation of racing?

Smh.

[shadow tartan]

Surely that's a bug then if people using that feature are pitted against people playing normally

[inland oasis]

the core of racing games? is called....DRIVING

idc about the race

[austere lance]

Just don't use the setting

[marble idol]

Can't what? I play racing games just fine, despite being 90% blind in my left eye.

That's the stupidest argument ever. We may as well just add a god mode key to every video game, because you can just "not use it".

More up to date Micro Machines

[dry copper]

Two players in a combat zone, one uses bullet time to slow mo kill a npc, but the other player also experiences bullet time with the added ability to then interrupt enemy deaths by way of their own reverse time on targets to prevent their deaths....The more bullet time is used, the more reverse time is added to the other player allowing them to undo everything. The trick being to kill a target the player can't see or can't reach and for them to be dead long enough that they can not be reversed back to life. Do this by creating obstacles for the other player before executing their team or don't use bullet time at all...Then the NPC could be made far more deadly to encourage the use of bullet time or git gud

[shadow tartan]

Fucking amazing

I got Elite in Takedown twice, XBOX and XBOX 360

Not only that the developers highest reviews score is 80 and ever other game is mixed with 20-100 reviews

[coarse swift]

uh hope they got permission from Valve

[dry copper]

Permission to have a cube with a heart in it?

I do see a similarity with the companion cube.

I wonder if Terraria had permission from valve to add the companion cube as a pet to the game

Or Geometry Dash

[obtuse reef]

I don't think you need direct permission for references

[dry copper]

You don't.

Though I don't know how that's a reference. I wasn't paying that close attention to the media content for the game to even notice it.

Looking at it a second time I'm sure its fine since its not an identical model

But man is it close

[quaint escarp]

diablo 4 is fun but i have to keep watch of the time

[dry copper]

I meant in identifying how it's referencing the cube, not that it is. I don't know the context and a game using assets that look similar enough that one might argue copyright infringement. For the purpose of copyright infringement, a reference is like a tribute...a tip of the hat. I don't know the context of its use here to identify whether it's a reference or just straight up ripping off an asset for meme profits.

It's a tight rope in infringement where fair use is allowed and where it's not.

I really hope this update changes enough of the game that I don't feel like I just wasted $40...because I feel like I just wasted $40 rn

i just found out horese whistling is alot more complex than i ever thought

i thought the three lil whistles you can do to call your horse, that can vary it length, were just for RP reasons, but turns out one long press whistle makes the horse come and stay within vicinity of the player, 3 sharp whistles "Rush" the horse to you, and etc. which in game feels to be pretty accurate

not to mention all the things tha can vary to change the outcomes such as "law presence", conflict, Predatory animals, and endless more

In my dream there was multiplayer and more survival aspects. U need to drink and eat. So if u are stranded on rock without food u have to risk and run or die. Enviroment was fully destructable so no building was safe. Graboids had more variety. All from the movies. + big fat worm much bigger from the first movie with more spikes and armor scales. Worm queen kinda enemy. U had to keep really quiet when exploring and looting for food,materials, weapons etc. to not attract them. And graboids learned over time your tricks u used on them. Damn it would be fun game

Bayek is my second favorite Assassin, after Ezio

[tranquil glen]

I personally dont like ezio not that its him but specifically ac brother, bc unlike revelations he doesnt explore outside the city (even in 2 he did) and ive yet to revelate yet so

Tbf ive not completed brotherhood fully yet but had almost completely gained control of full rome

[lapis thicket]

Origins was quite good I thought, speaking as someone whos been out of the franchise entirely since AC3, Bayeks story was great, plus I love egyptian culture, mythology and sociology.

[tranquil glen]

Tried to get back into franchise several times after leaving from first playin Unity/Syndicate (which has yet to be complete) but getting 100% brotherhood take so long

Tho i have 100% the first two games

Odyssey was my favorite rpg ac vahalla was good but too long and origins was a mostly empty map and you were a warrior with a shield

Bayek is the only assassin with a believable backstory. The rest you have to stretch your imagination to believe why they'd be so fucked in the head is justified.

Bayek was literally driven to kill his only son.

Hi, is there any mmo which has either gun shooter fighting or very few different skill/abilities slots which need very few different key bindings like 4-5? Also has a pvp game mode where 2 or more teams fight and each team has atleast 10-20 or more players and which is playable 24/7 any much & whenever we want or at least 4-5 hours a day? whats the max team size considering all pvp modes? doing pvp we get rewards which we can use to unlock/upgrade units or skills or weapons or upgrades or litle bit of stats etc and these stat progression is consistent which we get to carry for next pvp matches? Also during a pvp match our gears/powers/stats/skills should not be equalized and more powerful geared players should do more damage.

[tranquil glen]

not sure about skills, but class wise you could check pretty much any battlefield, or even battlebit

i think most battlefields have medics/recon etc

unlike cod

A tip from an IT student, if you're disposing of this hard drive and there's sensitive info on it (like name, address, SSN ect.) open command prompt and type "Cipher:whateverdriveletteritis /W"
It'll overwrite any unused data (i.e. "deleted" data) 3 times (once with 0s, then Fs, then random hexadecimal numbers) that way if someone grabs the HDD out of the trash or you give it so someone for them to use, they can't dig the old data back out

“Its only the beginning” goes so unfathomably hard

I hope we get to see other factions

Like the tau, or the necrons, or the orks again in higher definition would be cool too

[austere lance]

Well yeah they have more than a year's worth of content planned 😆

[pure zinc]

I’m so beyond excited

I can’t wait to be azrael

:3

[austere lance]

The campaign teases the next enemy, but it definitely gonna have to be in a sequel

[pure zinc]

Aw :(

[austere lance]

This game is very much only built for Tyranids and ||Thousand Sons||, lol. They're adding new enemy types to those factions tho

[pure zinc]

How come?

[austere lance]

The new PvE mission they're adding soon has a BIG Tyranid, lol

[pure zinc]

I did see that

It looks dope

[austere lance]

There's a lot of moving parts to the game, it would have taken way more money and a lot more dev time to add a third faction to the campaign and Operations

[pure zinc]

I mean I feel like the funding they have now could maybe add a new one?

If they wanted to?

I also am ngl, I don’t like fighting thousand sons

I know why they’re like the way they are

[austere lance]

Nooooo, lol. It not as easy as just adding a new enemy skin. They'd have to add a whole new enemy with their own melee and ranged combat that interacts with our melee and ranged combat, which is surprisingly intricate for a game like this. We have melee combos for each melee weapon, a parry system, a perfect dodge system, etc. It would take years to add a new enemy faction

[pure zinc]

But it just feels less visceral

[pure zinc]

The parry mechanic isn’t universal?

[austere lance]

It's much easier for them to add new variants of our current enemies

[pure zinc]

Sometimes I feel like it is because I parry real people all the time, including the grapple class’s kick, I can parry that pretty consistently

[pure zinc]

I’m not saying it wouldn’t be hard, I’m just saying it could be possible

And is something I’d love to see

Even if it’s many years down the life time of the game

[austere lance]

The amount of money, effort, and time it would take to add a new faction to this game would be a waste when they could start fresh with a new game and not have to worry about said faction meshing with the current game's systems

[pure zinc]

Maybe

Idk

I’m no game dev yet

Idk how it all works

I strive to be one soon tho

And make my own game

[tranquil glen]

HOLY SHIT AC ValExpensive, is on sale for $14.99

even the complete eidtion is $34.99 down from 139.99

[winter yew]

Its good just too long I wouldn't worry about 100%

Rare case I support the use of microtransactions too

They milked people willing to buy it and gave us a free epilogue, river raids, a mirage tie in which included a outfit & more

[tranquil glen]

didnt they also include a origins tie in?

[winter yew]

I don't recall that but beats origins partnering with final Fantasy

[austere lance]

Holy shit

[dry copper]

I finally saw the movie "Nope"....I now understand what they were saying about how the movie had a different ending before

The ending of Nope was....about as complex as a fart in an elevator

It was there and then it was not

It was offensive but you understood the nature of the beast and why you suffered it.

I would like to say I was disappointed, but after the movie ended, all I could think about was how much build up they did for this...and the ending clearly reflects writers crunching to make it make sense and offer some measure of closure

...because presumably it didn't have closure in at least one of the proposed endings

I'd almost wished it ended without closure so it could set up for a possible sequel

I got the distinct impression though they didn't want a sequel of it, even in its early conception stages.

it was a spinoff

And this is a sequel?

yes

At least I think so

Hopefully 2 is better than subzero

Because subzero was a downgrade

@inland oasis @coarse swift Blitzer is dumb good now, seems to plug bug breaches

[obtuse reef]

Blitzer was always good

I don’t think it got changed with any of the buffs

[inland oasis]

That’s the electric infinite ammo shotgun/rifle right? Dont have that one yet.

Still love my scorcher.

I use the arc thrower though like it’s my primary

But a weapon that can take out bug holes with infinite ammo? That makes me want the blitzes hella bad

Oh wait, breaches. Not holes

https://medal.tv/games/helldivers-2/clips/iPTEpLbvxhR-Kyix4

The scream gets me Everytime

[obtuse reef]

The blitzer is still really good. It’s a pump action lightning shotgun (don’t ask me how it works) that bypasses medium armor and you can just hold down the mouse button

The only downside is that you can’t really aim it and it has a hard range limit of about 50m

[inland oasis]

Yea I’ve picked em up a few times and loved using it. Anything with infinite ammo is my fave. My second go to is the LAS, or quasar if I feel like blowing shit up

No reloading? Infinite democracy!

[obtuse reef]

I like using either blitzer or that primary flamethrower for bugs, with either a normal flamethrower or a quasar to help with heavies

[inland oasis]

Flamethrower is awesome too. I have the gas version one too but it kinda seems ass imo

In comparison

[obtuse reef]

I’ve been insane enough to try flamethrowers only with bots

[inland oasis]

Lmao

[obtuse reef]

It works surprisingly well

[inland oasis]

Stim pistol bots

[obtuse reef]

Turns out, electronics do not like fire very much

But if you are also crazy enough to try it, bring an anti tank weapon. Sure, you can kill a hulk with a flamethrower if you’re good enough, but that hulk will kill you a lot faster and it doesn’t even need to worry about being good

[inland oasis]

I wish we had more tracking stratagems. Like I always take the orbital laser. Such a good fire n forget stratagem, even if it’s not an instakill

[obtuse reef]

The main issue is that you have to get dangerously close to the giant murder robots

[inland oasis]

Also kills bug holes

[obtuse reef]

I always run railcannon. It’s a quick, easy method to turn any problematic heavy unit into a pile of goop. It also autotargets the biggest unit within range and has a cooldown of about 2 minutes

[inland oasis]

Thats exactly how I use the laser. Only yea, just not instant

Usually continues even after killing the big baddie too

[obtuse reef]

Also, the railcannon is infinite use, unlike the laser

I do on occasion use the laser on extermination missions, but I like the lack of consequences for poor aim with the railcannon

[inland oasis]

Don’t gotta aim the laser either lol

I swear might just be me but it targets usually first priority within vicinity but I swear goes after the larger targets first then after

[obtuse reef]

Oh yeah, but if you mess up a throw (like accidentally chucking it at an empty field) you aren’t getting that use back

[inland oasis]

I throw the thing usually into the swarm anyways

[obtuse reef]

I believe it targets the tallest unit

[inland oasis]

However it works, i like it lmao

Probably my #1 stratagem as far as offensive airstrike. Then nuke

Well, 500kg

Usually a shield gen pack or jump pack. And then exo suit

The dual cannon one is wild

[obtuse reef]

I love fire in HD so much. Whenever I use it, I’m always the one with an accuracy percentage in the single digits, but I really like playing Power Wash Simulator: Hyperviolence Edition

[inland oasis]

I like watching it spread lol

Good fire animations in games is rare

[obtuse reef]

If I’m running fire, I also always run supply pack so I can burn without needing to constantly call in resupplies

If I’m running blitzer, I usually just go with shield pack

[inland oasis]

Supply pack always feels like a waste to me since resupply exists. Allbeit the drawback being if someone else uses it

[obtuse reef]

You can use your own supply packs and it regains a use with a resupply, and it gives as much as a normal resupply

[inland oasis]

I’d have to use the missles or recoiless or something to make it feel worth

It’s just me but 99% of times I usually have the ressuply strat available

[obtuse reef]

Listen, with the flamethrowers, your ammo consumption is so high that you will be constantly calling down resupplies

[inland oasis]

Ehhh not with how much ammo you can get every 5 minutes lol

[obtuse reef]

I usually use the ammo pickups I can, but the extra stims and grenades are nice as well

I also run heavy fire-resistant armor, just so I can light myself on fire and not immediately die

And that extra damage reduction makes up for the lack of shields and the slight delay before using a flamethrower (if it hasn’t been used recently)

[inland oasis]

Catching on fire always gets me cuz I instictively wanna stim, not dive

[obtuse reef]

I’ve lit myself on fire so many times it’s just about second nature

My friends also usually run orbital napalm, so it helps if they call one on the extraction shuttle

[inland oasis]

The napalm orbital is HUGE lmao

So many times I thought I’m plenty far enough

[obtuse reef]

Oh yeah, same radius of the 380mm iirc

But more effective imo

[inland oasis]

I’d say more deadly as it leaves lingering damage rather than one burst

Not only that you can get trapped inside

[obtuse reef]

It’s always fun sprinting through fires without dying in three seconds

[inland oasis]

Me when juking hordes with light armor

[obtuse reef]

I like my terminids how I like my potato chips: crispy

I prefer heavy armor because it’s good enough to tank an extra few hits, although I usually lag behind everyone else

[inland oasis]

I’m leading every charge, typically the map leader/POI coordinator. Scouting the big bugs, and luring them away

[obtuse reef]

I run around and complete side objectives as well as killing every bug or bot who’s unlucky enough to come across me (at least, before they kill me)

The emperor protects, brother

[austere lance]

The new Lethal difficulty is insane, you can get jumped by like three Lictors at once and everything is ridiculously strong 😭

Ammo crates are limited too 💀

If you can somehow win tho you get a chainsword skin. I think there's a helmet too

I wonder if they have plans to add Terminators to the game... one can dream

[inland oasis]

damn thats a sour taste.....was bout finished with a run and it crashes

[austere lance]

Yeah, it's been happening since the update. They'll patch it

I got lucky and did two runs no problem, but I've seen lots of complaints of crashes

[inland oasis]

game was mad how badly we were destroying it xD

[austere lance]

🤣

[inland oasis]

tzeentch said "nah bruh"

[austere lance]

I got shit on by the titan in my first run, I didn't think to hide under the platform where it's safe 😆

[inland oasis]

i did it on easy xD i feel like i got carried cuz it was just a bunch button pressing. but i did get to target the thing once

titan aint got shit on me, im a helldiver. ive taken down titans as a GAURDSMAN

[austere lance]

Never thought of Helldivers as guardsmen before, lol. You kinda right, but also guardsmen would never get handed all the cool expensive shit Helldivers get to use 🤣

[inland oasis]

yea theyd probably get some respect from an astartes for all there cool dohickeys

[inland oasis]

where is the auto scorcher??

[austere lance]

Tech priests would lose their shit seeing "guardsmen" with electric shotguns and full access to nukes 🤣

[inland oasis]

id love to know where a helldiver would end up in the 40k verse xD

rogue traders i think

[austere lance]

Speaking of bullshit ground pounders, I need that damn Starship Troopers game

[mental rose]

A youtuber I watched on this subject made an argument that when given access to 40k tech. They'd make for great Tyranid hunters.

[inland oasis]

sounds about right xD

hell theyd even fight necrons i bet

[mental rose]

Imagine a Helldiver screaming "For Holy Terra!" though. 😄

Brother I just want an Apothecary class

[orchid fox]

ie healer?

[mental rose]

No. I mean THESE guys. 😁

[inland oasis]

Terminators! 😍

[austere lance]

Terminators are too OP, it would have to be a one-time summon or something you can call in once per level 😆

[mental rose]

Heck, the Crux you got if you pre-ordered, is only to be used by a Terminator, not a normie space marine, even if they're a vet

[inland oasis]

NO let me be CALGAR goddamnit!

I thought we were the main character till his badass swooped in

And if it ain’t him it’s the dreadnought. That’s my homie

[austere lance]

Please Emperor, I need my Apothecary 😭

[inland oasis]

Give him MAGNUS

[mental rose]

At least it wasn't Guilliman. Would make Titus feel like a tertiary character. 😄

[inland oasis]

Guiliemans THE brown noser

😂😂😂

[austere lance]

Big Blue is too busy with his space elf gf

[inland oasis]

I keep seeing Fuggin memes about that!

What did I miss

[mental rose]

Can Apothecaries be psykers? In Daemonhunters they can use something called Biomancy abilities to support their brothers. 🤔

Maybe it's just the Grey Knights

[inland oasis]

And the fact that slanesh is jealous the emperor keeps rejecting them yet guillieman gets away with it 💀😂

[austere lance]

Blue had a space elf lady watching over him for a while when he was sleepin and now he's besties with her, iirc 😆

[inland oasis]

“The codex does not support this action”
Guillieman: bish I wrote the codex 😂

[earnest hatch]

damn he is big big

Does he scale to the Imperator?

Imperators are literal cities of machinery. Kilometers tall

Probably just a base titan size

Titan classes I’m not super smart on.

The first missions just the easiest one to run thru tryin to avoid enemies lmao

How are Lictors of all things killing this many people, the Neurothrope is way worse 😭

Neurothropes always spawn, without fail, when everyone on my team is out of ammo. Then it's usually just me as my Bulwark crying in the corner while my teammates frantically scramble for ammo 🤣

[inland oasis]

Neurothropes imo are so easy. One attack to dodge and that’s it.
Lichters just come outta freaking no where sometimes and you gotta get that double/triple parry just to gunstrike

[austere lance]

I mostly only play on Substantial and Ruthless and Neuros are by far the main thing that's wiped or almost wiped my teams, they have terrible spawn areas and we never have enough ammo for em 😭

Whenever Lictors spawn they always get jumped by the whole team and rolled for their lunch money, LMFAOOOOOOO

It's more like they think they're in the middle of a public street and allowed to shout any horrible thing that comes to mind at random people

I've never seen so much transphobic political bullshit. Give it a couple weeks for the culprits to either leave or be removed if you're on the fence about playing the game with global chat turned on.

[orchid fox]

anyone here recommend subnautica and below zero? the bundle of both have tempted me for a while

[obtuse reef]

Subnautica is very very good, but be sure to wear brown pants while playing. I've heard kinda mixed things about below zero, mostly complaints regarding the story and lack of content in some areas

[orchid fox]

last i checked few years ago story wasnt finished

[obtuse reef]

I think people were also mad about the seamoth and the cyclops being removed in below zero

[orchid fox]

as someone that hasnt played is that major

[obtuse reef]

yes, because those were two of the only vehicles in the first game

the seamoth is a small but very fast little submarine, and the cyclops is much larger and can store the seamoth and function as a mobile base

there's also a mech suit that stayed in both games

[orchid fox]

tempted for sonic x shadow, ragnarok and tsushima tbh (but still need to finish og gow >_>')

[obtuse reef]

I need to play through subnautica before the second game comes out, I never actually did it

[mental rose]

I've played through first Subnautica few times now, and I can definitely recommend it.
Very easy start, though on your first blind playthrough, you're gonna spend a lot of time exploring around, looking for upgrades that let you progress along the story

[obtuse reef]

You're also going to be terrified of every thing that has pointy teeth

[mental rose]

There is no in game map. Finding your way is done via a compass and topographic map on specific vehicles

And you have to unlock the compass

[obtuse reef]

there are also waypoints

you can deploy them and they'll stay on your hud

[mental rose]

Yea, you can deploy beacons to points of interest

And then there's the base-building

[obtuse reef]

you can make your own cozy little base in the watery hell that is that damn planet

[mental rose]

And depending how deep you build, the more reinforcement you need, since the game simulates water pressure

[upper glade]

I love it when game makers put out these sorts of stats. Conan Exiles does this too -- they know exactly how many build pieces have been placed over the years.

[austere lance]

Below Zero is good fun, it has a sea truck that you can attach modules to and basically turn into a sea train mobile base 😆
There's also a psychopath lady with a mech who hunts ice worms for fun and puts their parts on her mech, lol

Below Zero's ending is also insane and the game has a terrifying new leviathan type

Well, it has multiple new leviathan types. But one of them is brown note worthy 🤣

[austere lance]

It's been finished for a couple years

[dry copper]

Brown note....That's an episode of Death Note I never heard of.

I made the mistake of recalling a song I listened to two weeks ago, but only enough to drive me insane trying to figure out what it was...so I could hear it again

So the last half hour has been me, browsing my extensive youtube watch history

I think youtube is adding AI to their search algorithm but only on the backend so users can't necessarily tell it's there

I think Xbox is trying to be catty

They posted the launch date of Black Ops 6

Gives me such medieval priest vibes lol

Winged helm by far the best. I like how some options aren’t always “last one best looking” tho a lot are

Like vanguard I like the green eye lense one most

Just an update for any TLD players, new update in a few months with Shelter Customization. Final episode of Wintermute early next year. Video Unrelated, Just a throwback: https://youtu.be/q4_h8GyIWkM?si=uQ3cFNyYy9ac7_2s

[silver sparrow]

Likely story

Also what kind of customization

[vestal hemlock]

"Safehouse Customization. Move furniture and decorative props around your favourite locations in the game. Repair broken items and clean up the mess. Craft items from an entirely new series of hand-made furniture and decorative props. Collect and move every framed pancake photo in the game to one place. Make pretty much any valid interior in the game your personal Safehouse with this powerful system. Note that “valid interiors” in this case include any interior space that has a separate scene load (ex. Trapper’s Cabin, Quincy’s Quonset, etc.), and most of the structures connected to the region scenes (like the Lookouts and the Mountaineer’s Hut). The possibilities are (almost) endless. There are also some new Safehouse-centric gameplay tools included with the release."

Much more than just that for the update

lmaooo

this is Mystery Lake, and this is my crib

[mental rose]

The sheer scale of that mission blew me away the first time I did it blind.
Like hoo-wee! 😄

Especially when you're boosting away as it explodes

[viral dagger]

Fr, when I beat the thing I panicked when I dropped on the wrong side and immediately boosted like crazy as the dusts from the explosion is trying to catch up with me lmao

[viral dagger]

climbing up that crazy transporter felt like I'm playing Shadow of the Colossus, which is something cuz I've only seen gameplays of that game lol

[obtuse reef]

I put a de-evolution gun on this bad boy and the game thought that this was a fitting name

I've discovered the love that is Ori and the Blind Forest.

[austere lance]

Hell yeah, those games are

Will of the Wisps is my favorite

[winter yew]

I'm enjoying the hell out of it so far, and I don't usually like modern metroidvanias

[austere lance]

Ori is peak

[winter yew]

Seriously, I'm learning that

I'm only about45 minutes in so I have a ways to go

[austere lance]

Both games made me cry, but 2 hits the hardest 😭

[winter yew]

I also picked up No Rest for the Wicked. Ori was on sale for $15, No Rest for $27

Saving Will of the Wisps for after Blind Forest completion

I can't imagine 2 being more emotionally invested. 1 starts off very strong

[austere lance]

👀

[winter yew]

I believe you, just saying if 2 is stronger... man

Things aren't looking good for star citizen ngl

Hardly surprising though

[edgy viper]

Sc Fans themselfs wanted to devs never finish it and endesly expand it. If themselfs wanted it. Who am i to judge. I hope they have fun at least.

[deep kindle]

I'd be rich if they gave me a coin for every time a journalist tried to have a hot take on sc lol

[balmy plaza]

I'd honestly say this is a pretty cold take

Unfortunately

[deep kindle]

whatever u wanna call it

content is still the same

after this much money and many yrs star citizen is facing many issues in its production

meanwhile it's organizing bigger and bigger events and continuing dev

[shadow tartan]

Can't wait for the "we finally polished a feature" event

/s

[mental rose]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkiV5D5bPRU

[dry copper]

I look forward to the economic collapse of scam citizen

The funny thing is, they aren't going to collapse because of a lack of funding.

They're going to collapse because of mismanagement

[deep kindle]

haters be hating

[dry copper]

They are already clearly demonstrating a lack of proper management

Have been from day one

[deep kindle]

https://tenor.com/view/always-has-been-among-us-astronaut-space-betrayal-gif-23836476

that doesn't mean the project must fail

especially for the sake of hating

[dry copper]

All you have to do is look at their quarterly reports.

[deep kindle]

i always do, even tho there is no quarterly report lol

[dry copper]

https://cloudimperiumgames.com/blog/corporate/cloud-imperium-financials-for-2021

Both you do and there is no report

Talking out of both sides of your face

[deep kindle]

monthly reports exist

[deep kindle]

and no1 looks at this

[dry copper]

Yes, they do

[deep kindle]

no?

there is another and better tool

[dry copper]

Anything produced by RSI for Star Citizen is glam. It's not "better" than the report they have to provide to investors by law.

[shadow tartan]

He just needs to release StarCoin or CryptoCitizen

[deep kindle]

shut up don't give him more ideas

[shadow tartan]

How do you know it's not in the pipeline

👀

[deep kindle]

everything in pipeline is on a thing called progress tracker

[dry copper]

Lets see what's in the pipeline....

[shadow tartan]

It's clogged, with grease and poo poo

[dry copper]

Again, that's a glam page.

[deep kindle]

and also leakers didn't find anything bout this

[shadow tartan]

LOL

Sorry

[dry copper]

Adding glitter to shit doesn't make it better

[shadow tartan]

But progress trackers don't mean much if they're perpetually working on features with no clear end goal

Everyone uses trackers of some sort, depends on whether they're updated regularly or at all

Might as well look at a bunch of test cases and see what issues and blockers are holding things back too

[dry copper]

They call the money people paid to cloud imperium "hard earned money" but the first time someone wanted a refund, they flat out claimed in court that it was an investment donation and had the case dismissed on a TOS that wasn't even in effect on the day the person spent the money

They added the arbitration clause 4 years after the dude spent the money

[shadow tartan]

I lost money on Firefall because of the same thing

[dry copper]

I don't even remember how much I spent on Firefall

That game was fun

[shadow tartan]

I knew I was investing in development as a "founder"

No regrets

[shadow tartan]

Really fun

[dry copper]

I regret that the game failed. I loved racing in it

[shadow tartan]

But then they made some changes and it made the game pants

Changes to the mining things

Can't remember the name

The things you use to summon the enemies in areas

[dry copper]

Those thumpers

[shadow tartan]

Yeah the bikes were super fun

Had the Locust

[shadow tartan]

That's the one

It's called 3M83R now or something

[dry copper]

Based on the direction cloud imperium's financials are going, in another two years they'll have enough partnerships to operate without investments and I wouldn't be surprised to see them sell the game to china

[shadow tartan]

That's a lot of Star Citizens

The game is a huge undertaking though

[dry copper]

If the game ever launches, they won't be able to rely on their largest income growth option. They have every year been increasing their reliance on partnerships.

Their largest growth has been from pledges and backers

Whales.

[shadow tartan]

Yeah I've seen that happen elsewhere when people stop investing

Partnerships

Usually someone like ByteDance or someone

[dry copper]

The growth in their incentives, sponsors and partnerships is almost double what their backers and pledges are.

I bet they didn't put that on their glam page

Growth is the % change year over year

They are deliberately obfuscating their reliance on backers while hiding the growth % in the data.

Shit is deceitful

[shadow tartan]

I didn't expect transparency after the things I heard

[dry copper]

I want to know what happened in 2019-2020

[shadow tartan]

People I know left where they worked to go work on SC or Foundry 42 and went right back after a little while

[dry copper]

They lost a lot of growth in partnerships

A third of the growth

[shadow tartan]

Pre-COVID days eh

What a time

[dry copper]

Maybe

[deep kindle]

well apparently SC 1.0 which was presented today for almost 2hrs is clearly defined in terms of goal and stuff

[dry copper]

Might have been covid

[dry copper]

That the demo that crashed live infront of thousands of "fans"?

[deep kindle]

no

that was yesterday

am talkin bout today

[dry copper]

A new demo?

They didn't just re-launch the same demo?

[deep kindle]

they also introduced base building and space station building

[dry copper]

Not wise.

[shadow tartan]

I'm half joking, people that worked there often commented about lots of features not being managed correctly and that showed in the product for many years

[dry copper]

Feature Creep is a very bad .....feature

[shadow tartan]

I don't even hate SC, I joke about it but I've been looking forward to it

Only reason for me to build a new PC tbh

[dry copper]

I used to look forward to it. Now I look forward to it like I look forward to The Long Dark, but without having spent money on it so I'm not pissed off for them ripping me off. I'm just disappointed in them as a whole.

[deep kindle]

i mean yesterday they have clearly shown their intention for SC to actually become a MMO

it was a simple UI panel but very explicative

and tbh idc bout the crash of sq42 demo, shit happens

they have managed it whatever

[dry copper]

Remember when the game was proposed and they raised 400 million on a MP with SP campaign...It wasn't proposed as a MMO originally.

[deep kindle]

i mean no1 knew what the game was gonna look like until today afternoon

[dry copper]

Early backers complained. RSI said "get fucked"

[deep kindle]

hopefully ig

[shadow tartan]

Aliens: Colonial Marines

[dry copper]

RSI specifically added terminology to the TOS to prevent backers from suing

[deep kindle]

every1 does that

[shadow tartan]

Maybe he's trying to get real rockets into space like Elon

He needs the money

For humanity

[dry copper]

Also...New World Aeternum is a clusterfuck of racist transphobic bigots ruining the global chat and I'm going to be so glad in a couple weeks when the moderators have time to burn off those shits.

I've been reporting people every single day

[inland oasis]

New world was so ungodly toxic back when I first played it when the max lvl used to be 30

[shadow tartan]

Bruv wtf

[dry copper]

If they don't burn off these shits, I'm going to be sending my logs to a news media outlet showing how bad it is.

Then they can deal with the backlash for having not handled it

[shadow tartan]

Wait

How long has this been going on

[inland oasis]

Since release 😂

[dry copper]

It was less of a problem when I first started in the first New World, but I stopped playing. I recently rejoined for the relaunch and it's absolute horrible

[inland oasis]

If you were in clan wars it was bad bad

[dry copper]

The chat is full of people just screaming racist transphobic political shit

[shadow tartan]

Sounds like the New World, Mumbles

[inland oasis]

Or a guild I should say

[dry copper]

It looks like a bunch of btards larping 4chan

[shadow tartan]

@dry copper is there at least a bot or something deleting the messages or timing them out?

Amazon should have a better handle on that considering they hold tools and AWS

[dry copper]

Not sure. I do see the names I report after a while stop posting.

The messages aren't deleted tho

[shadow tartan]

Dayum

Well, it's something that was said I guess

[dry copper]

But get this...The next day I hear complaints about people being banned for bad words...

I laugh when I hear that.

If they are the ones I see disappearing...it's not bad words they are being banned for.

[inland oasis]

can you make a new account and start all over? (yea it sucks) but if you can i can see that being why its not stopping any of them

[dry copper]

The shit people say in that game would make a prostitute blush

[inland oasis]

or is it a game ban

[dry copper]

Can you? The game goes through a launcher that is tied to a DRM.

You can't just create a new account. Your account is tied to steam

[inland oasis]

idk, i remember i had 2-3 characters i coulda swore

[dry copper]

To Amazon

[inland oasis]

cuz i started new with my friends, all at the same time when i was like lvl 13 before

[dry copper]

You'd need to have a new copy of the game

You can have 4 characters max

[shadow tartan]

Didn't they give the game away for free recently?

[dry copper]

I don't know if the bans are account or character only

[inland oasis]

so if one gets banned all 4 go down the drain ?

ahhh
