darn, the witcher 3 saves the graphics settings in the cloud saves..
so switching between desktop and steamdeck is a bit of a hassle.

#

After all these years I've only just realized that the main guy from cod waw was Kiefer Sutherland

fallow bronze
#

what does that even mean

#

you didnt know what cod waw stood for?

solid bough
#

Ive never heard it called waw myself. Then again i dont hear people talk about it as much as other CoD

#

Its always Black Ops

orchid prism
#

We used to just call it World at War here.

bleak pike
#

@fallow bronze omg lol

#

I didn't send the full message

#

I meant to say the main guy was Kiefer Sutherland

nice ea servers

small comet

this is like the 5th test or so

#

Bruh

#

Wtf is wrong with your upload

#

And your ping

fringe salmon
#

upload is normal

orchid prism
#

All of those are normal.

smoky void
#

I get 600mbps+ over wifi with my gigabit internet and 5ms latency

#

On wifi...

fringe salmon
#

latency cant be compared since we dont really know how far his vs your test server is away from you etc.

orchid prism
#

Wifi doesn't have anything to say about your subscription speed limits though.

fringe salmon
#

and unless you get expensive symmetrical here thats about normal for upload on a gigabit download

smoky void
#

That doesn't make any sense

orchid prism
#

One most certainly does.

fringe salmon
#

that is the normal option here

orchid prism
#

Welcome to your average consumer connection.

smoky void
#

I've never seen a gigabit option that isn't 1:1

#

Never from no provider

#

Not in the consumer space or business

fringe salmon
#

most places dont even have more upload for any consumer contract here

orchid prism
#

Then you don't look very hard.

smoky void
orchid prism
#

👌

smoky void
#

The big ones so to say

fringe salmon
#

maybe we arent in your country

smoky void
#

But still doesn't make sense?

orchid prism
#

Welcome to the world. Where not everything is like you're used to.

orchid prism
#

This is probably THE most common connection offer here in Denmark right now. No I am not sure why it thought I'm Mandarin.

fringe salmon
#

also matters a lot if its fiber or coax, and what fiber version etc.

orchid prism
#

This is supposed to be 250 down btw. Over coax

smoky void
#

I used to have coax 250 down 50 up****

#

But later in the year got upped to 300 down

orchid prism
#

While you can definitely get 1:1 on Fiber, you're paying a premium for every mbit up compared to down.

smoky void
#

Well €50 a month for fiber 1:1 gigabit isn't much of a "premium" price

orchid prism
#

Depends entirely who you're asking.

smoky void
#

Mind you that's the bill for internet, we don't have tv anymore since we all stream anyway

orchid prism
#

Also - availability.

fringe salmon
#

also is it limited, how much does that go down if neighours also use the lane etc.

smoky void
#

It only goes down if someone in the house is using it

small comet
#

and guess what

#

i dont give 2 shits about the upload atm

#

theres nothing i need to upload that fast or big

smoky void
#

I work a lot with various cloud services, gigabit down is god tier

#

I'm so tired lmao

small comet
#

i work a lot with cloud services aswell

#

but

#

doesnt matter for those

#

cause my server can just use the 10gig intranet

smoky void
#

Definitely matters for my usecase

#

Why have a server if you have the cloud

fringe salmon
#

that doesnt really change what is the norm here xD

small comet
#

a server is the cloud my guy

#

idk if u know how the cloud works

smoky void
#

I'm assuming your server is on LAN

small comet
small comet
smoky void
#

Exactly

small comet
#

where my server stands the lan is just thousands of other servers

#

and almost purely fibre

smoky void
#

So it's not lan on YOUR network

small comet
#

its a lan

#

and my server at home has 2gigs

smoky void
#

2.5?

small comet
#

which is plenty fast for the local data i store

#

no 2

#

2x 1gig bundled

smoky void
#

Your server doesn't have 2.5gig eth ports?

small comet
#

uh no cause its useless tech

smoky void
#

"useless"

#

Right

small comet
#

yes very

#

way cheaper to get an sfp+ card or optionboard

#

and just go 10gigs

smoky void
#

If I'ma have a server in my own house, big transfers better be damn near instant lmao

small comet
#

then 2.5gig will be the dumbest thing u could do

smoky void
small comet
#

servers never really had 2.5gig iirc

#

only 1gig eth and 10gig sfp+

#

well these days they go for 100GBaseT

fringe salmon
#

a lot of 2.5 controller are also really plagued by issues, think the intel 2.5 controllers were the ones people really didnt like

smoky void
#

Hmm, I don't do home servers but if I were to have one it wouldn't be worth it to me if it wasn't at least 2.5gig or something

small comet
#

uh no u dont want 2.5gigs trust me

#

even 2gig as 2 bundled 1gig ports works better

smoky void
#

Well I definitely don't want 1gig

small comet
#

ngl its a wonder they do 2.5gigs on consumer mobos

smoky void
#

Cuz fiber internet is getting better

small comet
#

so?

#

the 10GBaseT standard has been around for like 20yrs

smoky void
#

2.5gig fiber internet isn't too far away

small comet
#

and we have a ton

#

of good 10gig nics

#

would be way better to just do that

smoky void
#

Well can't wait for 10gig fiber but I don't think that's near where 2.5 is

small comet
#

doesnt mean ur pc have to use ancient trash technology?

smoky void
#

To get 10gig fiber these days some real work is necessary

fringe salmon
#

10gig ports doesnt mean you can use 2.5 fiber when thats out

#

just means you can use the port for more and its not like it would cost them more

smoky void
small comet
#

uh no

fringe salmon
#

honestly might even be cheaper since I'd assume there are a lot more of them than 2.5 ports due to servers

small comet
#

1gig is plenty future proof for most people

smoky void
#

1gig fiber is pretty mainstream

small comet
#

ya no

smoky void
#

At least here in the Netherlands it definitely is

small comet
#

pretty sure u got a really skewed view of that

smoky void
#

A ton of colleague's and friends of mine have gigabit already

small comet
#

thats not all of the netherlands

#

id guesstimate the average to be 150 or so mbps

smoky void
#

No but it's pretty mainstream

small comet
#

like most countries

fringe salmon
#

you see here our government got scammed so instead of fiber we just have DSL on vector steroids to only get half of it

small comet
#

and now they build shitty as fibre

#

thats slower than my coax

#

gg

smoky void
small comet
#

ok and?

orchid prism
#

Average or median?

fringe salmon
small comet
#

averages btw

#

median*

#

meanwhile germany

smoky void
#

Yikes

#

Germany is pretty good tho

small comet
#

uh no

smoky void
#

Isn't like a good chunk of Americans still on dialup

small comet
#

no?

fringe salmon
#

I mean, saying you are above one of the worst countries in terms of internet (america) isn't saying much

small comet
#

US median

#

fixed beats the nl easy

smoky void
#

"How many Americans rely on dial-up or satellite internet? Over a quarter million Americans still use dial-up internet, and just over 8 million rely on satellite internet"

#

Damn

fringe salmon
#

hm apparently it was 86mbps for america in 2020 so doublign that seems accurate with covid years

smoky void
fringe salmon
#

but yeah, germany got scammed by telekom

small comet
#

what rank stat

fringe salmon
#

money supposed to go to fiber was used to put out more vectoring DSL which tops out at 500 iirc

small comet
#

soon is super vectoring

smoky void
#

500 would be fine if it's 1:1

small comet
#

its not

#

50up

smoky void
#

Well that's cringe

small comet
#

i still dont get how its cringe

fringe salmon
#

would still not be fine since for the same money you could get actual fiber setup that can do 10gig at some point

smoky void
#

Because it's so stupid to not also just give 500 up

small comet
#

for what

#

what would the average consumer use 500up for

#

correct nothing

#

absolutely nothing

smoky void
#

Wfh, streaming 4k, soon 8k, cloud gaming, downloads are getting bigger and having overhead is really good for a household of multiple people

small comet
#

u dont need upload for those

fringe salmon
#

how does bigger downloads matter for upload

smoky void
#

Well let me put it this way

orchid prism
#

Only thing wfh needs upload for is skype meetings. And you don't need a lot for that.

smoky void
#

File size is getting bigger

#

And cloud storage is getting more mainstream

small comet
#

and most services sync silently in the background

#

and with 50mb up

#

its still plenty fast

orchid prism
#

Most wfh is done using remote clients anyway

smoky void
smoky void
fringe salmon
#

50mb up is not enough for the future that I agree with, but it's not as important as download and its not like they lay out the network do have it run bidirectional and just cap it for no reason

#

sure some of it is marketing and bs

orchid prism
small comet
#

rdp is like

#

so reasource efficient

#

ngl

smoky void
#

No it's not

small comet
#

yes it is

smoky void
#

RDP can be an ass if one of the endpoints has a poor connection

small comet
#

idk man ive seen offices use fluid rdp with 10mbps

#

seems good to me

smoky void
#

It's better than vnc but RDP still needs a reliable decent connection

small comet
#

welp time to cry that i cant stream 4k or 8k content due to my low upload

There's currently a spicy drama in the TrackMania community where Wirtual (the popular streamer who exposed his cheating friend) is using Wooting's analog curve to achieve double steering

#

and people call him out for cheating

#

The poor players can't tell a difference between an input device and a macro/3rd party software

#

And want to ban analog curve adjustment in the game now

#

gl with that

rancid hearth
#

even though controller play is allowed

meager crown
#

Exactly

#

You could always use tools to adjust your Xbox controller with some driver to output steering in steps

solid bough
#

and trackmania has a literal software to detect macro inputs easily.

small comet
#

one of the most technically knowledgeable communities when it comes to ingame moves and how to detect cheating is fighting over a very normal input device

#

sounds like the best use of their time

meager crown
#

Yeah it's a shitshow

solid bough
#

well, better than the massive explosions that happened regarding the golden eye speedrunning rules. this is normal when trying to go over serious rules and competition.

meager crown
#

Doesn't help that the devs I think experimented with having keyboard buttons to mimic analog input in steps as well

solid bough
#

cause not everyone can afford 200 dollar keyboards and such

#

or fancy hardware, etcetera

#

this is why even some emulators are allowed in some speedrunning

tacit scroll
fading spade
solid bough
#

aye but the issue is to avoid straining your niche community so thin as to make it dead by making it inaccessible

tacit scroll
#

I think it’s the same as 240hz monitors. They are expensives in FPS game you can have a slight edge with it but most people can still compete to very high level with 144hz.
I don’t think it makes the community thiner at all, it just mean that if the 1% people willing to go over board to increase a little bit their skill ceiling, they can, otherwise they are fine

#

That’s my opinion tho, it’s subjective

solid bough
#

I don't believe a 240hz monitor is going to provide that big of an advantage

#

i'm going to need to see study and stats.

#

maybe in hyper competitive matches? like you would still need high enough reflexes.

fringe salmon
solid bough
#

feel free to show me it provides anything honestly.

#

if it has an edge, it's an advantage.

solid bough
#

I figured you'd bring this up but you failed to meet the point of practicality in terms of it bringing an advantage.

fringe salmon
#

having a more accurate/less blury picture is not an advantage?

solid bough
#

also this article is referencing VR visuals

#

in comparison to current conventional displays : I doubt it's going to be that big a difference as to affect someone's performance.

ashen lark
#

Ngl can’t say I have any interest in seeing more than 240hz anytime soon

fringe salmon
#

you keep flip flopping between points, do you want to talk about a massive advantage or "any" advantage

solid bough
#

you're talking as if 120 or 240 is 'blurry'

#

we're not talking about some crappy 240p tv from the 50s

fringe salmon
#

it can be also it's relative

solid bough
#

then show me the difference, cause, 'relatively', it's not going to be as blurry as you think it'll be.

#

even if you produce the clearest sharpest fastest monitor : you have to show that having such a display actually provides an advantage over conventional accessible displays

fringe salmon
#

idk I can clearly see the difference and thats just one object

solid bough
#

which is what the topic is about : accessibility

fringe salmon
#

there are military tests about what the pilots can still see, dont remember where it was linked though

#

@ebon osprey might remember that

solid bough
#

aye but what game is going to take advantage of something like that?

fringe salmon
#

csgo

solid bough
#

a competitive one*

#

you mean where all the maps are basically close quarters?

#

I can see this being, say, a big advantage for like a sniping game

#

far away movement

ashen lark
solid bough
#

I think battleground games probably would benefit

ashen lark
#

Anyways the image is rather dumb since it all depends on how fast the image is moving

fringe salmon
#

not sure how that is relevant when it's simply about being able to see things sooner or better

solid bough
#

you aren't going to see it sooner.

fringe salmon
#

yeah I am

solid bough
#

you'll see it more clarity

ashen lark
#

Not by a lot but possibly you will see it sooner

#

But you may not

fringe salmon
#

if someone comes around the corner, next frame I see it, when the frame is sooner I can see it sooner

solid bough
#

except you aren't going to react within a frame

ashen lark
#

Unless they come around at the time the slower refresh rate frame would be drawn as well

fringe salmon
#

nobody said I am

solid bough
#

not meaning literal. I mean in general.

fringe salmon
#

if you see it sooner you can react sooner, obviously not a second sooner if its 1ms frame difference

solid bough
#

like, unless it's dead set games like speedrunning single player games that don't have RNG : you aren't going to be doing frame perfect inputting and reactions.

#

this is true but this is assuming the "sooner' is within human limitations.

ashen lark
#

You basically may get a 1 ms advantage

#

So I suppose if your opponents reaction time is within 1ms of yours

#

Then it may make a difference

fringe salmon
#

yes its not every time yes your overall input delay is magnitudes bigger etc.

#

but its a quite simple fact that if I can see it sooner it can happen that I thus process it that much faster

solid bough
#

there's that too, input delay

#

both human and device

#

Until I start seeing stats and tests, I don't believe having the perfect display is going to change that huge compared to current monitors.

#

if any change at all.

ashen lark
#

There will be a very very small change

fringe salmon
#

nobody said something about a huge change apart from you

solid bough
#

if its so small it's not worth it 😂

fringe salmon
#

completely different from if its a thing or not

solid bough
#

true but practicality is what matters

#

as well as accessibility.

#

So, like, if it doesn't do all that much then wouldn't be worth much to invest into nor worth banning.

ashen lark
#

Well yes we are not saying it’s worth the investment or anything

solid bough
#

but if it did do a ton, then it'll cause a lot of issues.

ashen lark
#

Just that there would be a very very slight difference

#

There is no way for it to have a big effect

#

Or well unless everyone had 2hz screen

solid bough
#

lol

ashen lark
#

And one person 1000hz

solid bough
#

yeah

ebon osprey
solid bough
#

sounds like a thing for VR/AR than some competitive game.

ebon osprey
#

And this test shows that for at least sample and hold displays, you need 20khz refresh to be visually indistinguishable

ebon osprey
solid bough
#

okay and?

tough jay
#

Just for reference, when you show something like that, it tends to be better if you show the source as well.

ebon osprey
#

It's blur busters and was posted earlier

ebon osprey
solid bough
#

benefit in a way that is very noticeable improvements?

ebon osprey
#

The more critical the movement is to the game and the more skill reliant the game is sure the more it matters

#

But the difference between noticeably fake and visually indistinguishable will remain

tacit scroll
#

Getting more frames first reduce blur, second reduce input lag, third makes you react faster because you get the information sooner on a decal (the first frame shows the shoulder earlier)

ashen lark
#

Well yes but 240hz compared to 60hz is a few ms difference on average

tacit scroll
#

On a simple snipe test on mid double door on dust2 shows that more shots hits during a cross ct side

ashen lark
#

While 1000 to 10000 will always be less than one ms

fringe salmon
#

where tf did you get to 10000

ashen lark
#

Just random number since it was mentioned before lol

fringe salmon
#

the discussion was about 240hz making a change or not

tacit scroll
#

Ms input lag adds ups in every step on the inout chain. So for every steps you try to reduce it

fringe salmon
#

so comparing 1k to 10k isnt really making sense for that context

ashen lark
tacit scroll
#

More over when you do Big Swipe to flick shot getting a less blurry image is a big plus to click at the right timing

#

It involves skills but in any cases when you talk about high competitive advantages, we talk about this kind of little edges.

#

And with people having enough skill to take benefit from it

ashen lark
#

So far yes but the benefit will get smaller and smaller

tacit scroll
#

That’s normal

#

It’s not linear

ashen lark
#

Each time you double the fps the ms change between to frames is gonna be half of what it was with previous doubleing basically

ebon osprey
#

Sure but humans don't see in ms

ashen lark
#

And yeah also how much that helps to human isn’t going to be linear

#

It’s more important than hz too

#

For this

tacit scroll
#

This is not the topic of the debate at all

ebon osprey
#

The Ms precision of human perception has not been tested
The ability to perceive hz however has been

fringe salmon
#

I swear this server has a infectious disease going around where people dont read half of something and/or talk about a different point without reason lol

ebon osprey
#

And the jump from high number that human can tell is fake to higher number that is beyond perception will be larger than from the limit of humans caring (about 1khz) to the high number

tacit scroll
#

The topic of the debate is: wooting keyboards give an advantage in competitive trackmania. Someone mentioned that it makes competitive games less accessible and that it’s not normal. Then I gave the example that the more you get competitive the more gear enter in the equation and I used the 240hz monitor to illustrate it

#

But it is the same in cycling sports with bikes, same in F1 with cars

#

Etc

#

Competition at high level is by definition less accessible

ebon osprey
#

And imo the slow perception penalty is alot less drastic than the speed limits from biking
If your bike has 2% more friction than your competitors, you will be 2% slower assuming both are peak human

#

With games, since the physics timescale is usually alot slower than the render speed (interpolated to look smooth) as soon as you are rendering at least at physics timescale speed, you will be able to perform

tacit scroll
#

It doesn’t matter any edge must be and will be used in this kind of circumstances. It doesn’t matter if it is by a lot or not

ebon osprey
#

It might be more difficult to adjust for the smoothness, however that isn't a physical limitation

#

There was an OSU player playing on a 60hz laptop with a mouse and was putting up scores that people thought were impossible

tacit scroll
#

OSU is predictive you learn patterns it is way different from reacting to something that is not expected

ebon osprey
#

Or you can memorize the pattern

tacit scroll
#

That’s my point

ebon osprey
#

Trackmania seems memorisable to me

#

I mean not to me I have the memory of a goldfish

tacit scroll
#

For sure. That’s not the case in fps games

ebon osprey
#

Yea

#

In the reaction based fps games, if you are high level and your latency is higher you will lose

#

However in the tactics based ones, not so much

tacit scroll
#

I agree with you

#

My point with the monitors was about saying that the more competitive you go in games, the more people will invest in gear anyway and it’s normal

#

Because people complained about making the community thiner by 200€ gate on keyboard advantage

ebon osprey
#

Not everyone needs to be the best at the game 🤷

tacit scroll
#

Exactly

ebon osprey
#

And I'm highly confident that the skill advantage that you can get from a peice of hardware is less than the reaction time advantage you get from being younger...

tacit scroll
#

reaction time doesn’t change much until very late when you age. Competitive gamers just was a familly when they get older

ebon osprey
#

Negatory

#

Most competitive games don't actually care about reaction time
But your reaction time can't be under 100ms if you are over 22? I forget what age it is exactly
But if you are 20 you can have a reaction time of 100ms and if you are 30 it will be about 120ms peak

#

Now sure the average at 20 is 160ish and only reaches 200ms average at 50
But minimum reaction time does matter and does change with age

bleak pike

ye

fading spade
#

oo

#

nice

unique bane
#

frequency's reciprocal is period, so the perception limit should be the same for both, even if time is harder to test for.

rancid hearth
ebon osprey
#

event 1 is aloooooooooot harder to detect than event 2 even though they are the exact same event ms wise

ebon osprey
#

theres no stroboscopic effects

unique bane
#

So you are comparing multiple periods and one single period?

#

Obviously, but then we need to think whether the contrast helps separate the one single event from the lack of noise easier than the multiple periods from constant noise

ebon osprey
#

an event measured in ms is referring to a single event

#

an event measured in hz is referring to a series of events

#

contrast is irrelevant its 100% duty cycle either way

unique bane
#

contrast used as an adjective, not monitor contrast

ebon osprey
#

the word contrast means "difference" referring to different things
this is a binary sequence
its either on or off

unique bane
#

No, you're comparing apples to oranges. You're comparing a single x frame period to constant supply of images shown at y frequency

ebon osprey
#

exactly

period and frequency can be both

ebon osprey
#

ms in perception generally refers to an event

#

frequency in perception generally refers to a series of events

unique bane
#

No, and I don't know why would you think so.

ebon osprey
#

vs

#

humans cant perceive events that are too short timewise

#

and we appear to be able to detect stroboscopic effects that are significantly shorter in duration than that

unique bane
# ebon osprey humans cant perceive events that are too short timewise

As testing methods become more accurate, ms perception approaches frequency perception, because they are reciprocals. Can you see a single photon that stays on your vision for 1 ms or less if you were blinded but allowed to see that only? Would you hear a sound played for 1 ms or less?

ebon osprey
#

[citation needed]

unique bane
#

Will I feel a cut that only lasts 1 ms?

#

Do I not perceive variable signal latency of a monitor (1-5 ms) because I cannot perceive such a low period, or is it because the testing method (reliant on short term memory) is inadequate?

ebon osprey
#

https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/9450008
and this paper says humans can detect audio events that are half a ms apart about

#

and im sure you are aware that humans can detect sounds with a frequency well over 10khz

unique bane
#

So what is the summary?

ebon osprey
#

humans cant detect audio events as separate if they are closer than .5ms
but humans can detect audio with higher frequency than the reciprocal of .5ms

unique bane
# ebon osprey humans cant detect audio events as separate if they are closer than .5ms but hum...

You are, in my opinion, comparing apples to oranges. You can't say humans can't detect 0.5 ms events as separate, because they blend into one (your example of frequency). The correct way to test such would be whether a human can notice a single loud sound that is played for 0.5 ms a single time. And continue the test to see whether a human detects the 0.5 ms events spaced by the same amount as a single stream or not - which indicates that the brain does (or does not) something to those separated events to prevent sensory overload by blending single events into stream of sound that is more comprehensible to us.

I have made no statements of opinion, and i have cited my sources
you have not refuted any of my points with any sources and have moved the goalposts every time I bring more sources

You have not cited anything either, just given links to random research papers which you can't expect me to read. But if you feel we cannot discuss the matter without citations, it's better to stop as neither of us are experts on the topic.

@nimble current VRChat is a social avatar game

yeah that's about as much as I knew about it, like going to a virtual bar/club or something

what confuses me is why that sort of thing would need anti-cheat software

fallow bronze

maybe to prevent flying dicks

(as in secondlife happened frequently)

no it does need something just not EAC

I wanna know the outcome and know if I need to lose more faith in humanity or not

not mentioning anything about sexual assault but teabagging is now reportable

at least that's what I heard

I mean, I don't have the chance to teabag anybody in apex legends anyways 😄

I am on the receiving side usually so...

and mostly I don't see it as I rage quit 😄

fading spade

Meanwhile in Splitgate, one of the loading screen tips actively promotes the use of teabagging!

Unless they removed that, the game had an update

rancid hearth

too bad more games don't allow attacking your opponents mental state along with their digital character

wild wyvern

it's rude but don't know if it's ban worthy...

rancid hearth

I've seen worse in rocket league chats, If you can be banned for something like a teabag that's a issue

wild wyvern
#

if they could get rid of all the cheats, then they can consider those tbh

#

cheats are much more annoying and it wastes all the time you spent on the game

fringe salmon
#

idk with cheats I know I wont win so I dont need to try, if my teammates get salty and type a storm of slurs instead of trying to win I get more mad because now that is losing us the game

wild wyvern
#

depends on the game
for battle royale, you play till the end, and last team is just messing with you with the cheats, makes you wanna uninstall the game

well I see it as an issue of is the reason their team or my team, I just get more frustrated if my team throws/gets salty etc.

People: Killing people in a video game is different than killing people IRL cause you are just shooting at a 3d model on a screen

I guess if there were not so many smurfs or the matchmaking was much better, it would have been great for casual gaming too

multiplayer fps I mean

so the genre is not very welcoming to casual gamers

of course there are really good casual gamers too, but I don't think it's the majority

young crow

completely stopped playing fps games because the objective of the game can easily be automated completely by cheats

Stealing an avatar though isn't the same as right clicking an NFT though.

rancid hearth
#

Some people pay for their avatars to be made so I'd say it's fair to prevent that

solid bough
#

aye, there's actual copyright behind it.

#

at least within the USA : just changing the colors around isn't exactly enough to qualify for 'transformative' works.

#

and on that same note : basic shapes also can't be copy/trademarked.

#

but that doesn't stop some assholes trying to copyright hexegons and sueing everyone that uses it

young crow
#

vrchat probably owns everything you upload anyways

fringe salmon
#

nope

#

at least last I looked into it they didn't because that way they didn't have to deal with being the copyright holder when someone uses a disney avatar for example

young crow
#

interesting, though dealing with c&ds isn’t exactly a lot of work

fringe salmon
#

well before this recent deal I also would've said because they dont want to lose their users

young crow
#

“EAC is the industry-leading anti-cheat service. It’s lightweight, effective, and privacy-focused. In short, for any game or platform looking to prevent malicious users from breaking the rules, it’s a powerful solution.”

#

privacy-focused lmao

fringe salmon
#

yeah by nature of an anti cheat that cant really be true if it wants to be effective lol

young crow
#

the intrusive ones have nothing to do with privacy by definition

#

battleye literally calls GetExtendedUdpTable, also claims to love privacy

gleaming olive
#

lula fucking vr game having an anti cheat, what a world

#

That, and "anti cheats" being privacy-focused. At the end of the day, this is (what I deem) laziness to solve the actual issues allowing clients to cheat. How the fuck are people even cheating in VrChat... Hell, why would you? Isn't it mostly a "fuck around" type of social thing?

#

Not to mention, EAC literally reduces frames lul

barren pewter
#

we got singleplayer games with anti-cheat
didn't know why till they added a pay-to-win option

#

Paying for cheats is nothing new

gleaming olive
#

People need to stop buying games as soon as they release. Ideally they should wait about a year to see if they pull some bullshit.

#

Hell, pirating nowadays is a better option than buying some games thonk

#

With all the shit like DRM that requires internet access, anti cheats on single player games, and some other privacy concerns, why even bother paying for it?

#

That's not to say that pirating is good though. If you like a game and can support it, go for it, as long as said game isn't doing something funky.

#

Not to mention if they get revenue, they can develop a game later on in the future or develop free DLC (seems to be getting slightly more common).

barren pewter
#

or just pay a small fee and get it all automagically

#

which is stupid considering completing all challenges will give you enough to buy all of it with just under 10k points iirc

gleaming olive

You're misunderstanding why they're offering it though: most people don't want to invest the time or grind for them.

if you say so. I just don't think the sale numbers are going to reflect the numbers of actual players due to scalper shenanigans muddling up statistics.

so you think 10 million ps5s are just in limbo that scalpers have an are not selling

bleak pike

cause if you look at GPUs : it didn't matter what the fuck it was, low range mid range or high range... everyone was scourging for scraps of ANYTHING driving up all sales, and sharply affecting statistics.

again I don't know the stats of it or how many, i wont say its 10 million though.

fringe salmon

so then you say more than 10 million are in the hands of users, so there you have the people who could want the psvr2

scalpers are not hoarding stuff and then hope its prices go up like bitcoint while its being made still???

solid bough

aye, eventually they gotta sell or go bust.

so then it sounds reasonable that if its selling more than the ps4, that A LOT of them are not stuck in limbo

there's probably still a chunk in limbo, all we gotta do is look at ebay and such. though yeah it's probably no where the same amount as it used to be. But yeah, what I said earlier was an over exaggeration.

people play the campaign for GTA V. but for continued play it eventually goes towards online

If you can get yourself to play GTAO for more than a few hours - in total, you're a stubborn one 😄

nimble current
#

if you even last that long before some hacker gets you banned

I played on Xbox

#

there were no hackers :P

#

just dogshit K/D warriors

#

GTAO isn't actually bad

#

If you use the network exploit

#

Where you force disconnect from lobby and go effectively singleplayer lul

#

The way to earn anything is slower than molasses - Which is also why I stopped playing RDO.

#

It literally took two to three weeks of logging in every day (welcome back bonuse streak that breaks if you miss even a single day!), doing a couple of hours worth of game. Just to unlock a new "profession"

feral ferry
#

Didn't they launch a new patch where they increased job rewards

#

I think I remember getting like 2M for free

#

So I bought a bunker to do those missions

#

It got boring 30 mins later

orchid prism
#

The irony is that you were genuinely encouraged to not play the game and just attack other players and harvest what they spent hours doing.

#

In RDO you get to set up a moonshine racket. At the end of each production cycle, you have to CAREFULLY wagon the bottles to town from way out in the countryside - drive bad and shit breaks, you get paid less.

But... anyone could grab the wagon and hand it in for the entire payout. The game literally turned into having players just camp the towns waiting for new players to come hand in anything (most professions has this style of mechanic) and grab shit from everyone after they headshotted them from a roof.

@barren pewter

#

Terraria's development finished, technically, but they aren't stopping with the QoL stuff

trim rock
#

Yeah, right, sure

#

Hogwarts legacy looks like it will be a Pog game

#

Just won’t have a GPU

feral ferry
#

But that's not bad, cause they are promising MTX-free experience

ashen lark
feral ferry
#

And there is a void of good magic games, so I am happy

ashen lark
#

But since no micro transactions it should be way better
I was really worried it will be like the mobile game

feral ferry
#

I am scared for lack of content

#

That you'll be forced to do a questline instead of being a student

#

But we'll see

#

Also it needs a sizeable world to boot, experience the game

Bungie doesn't allow 2 inputs at once

XIM tiem!

#

btw if new AMD drivers amp up performance of OpenGL .... I wonder how much that will reflect in performance of Dwarf Fortress 🤔

orchid prism
#

DF is 100 about that single core CPU.

solid bough
#

for the most part. But it IS still OpenGL and does do rendering.

orchid prism
#

It's not suffering under that though.

solid bough
#

yeah I know, any frame drops gonna be from CPU end

#

but maybe some crazy mad lad could figure out something idunno

feral ferry
#

Most peeps experienced roughly anywhere from 30% to 100% perf boost

NINTENDO CONFIRMED THE TRACKS FOR MKARIOKART WAVE 2

feral ferry

Why did ask, the answer's obvious lul

orchid prism
solid bough
#

@orchid prism okay nvm, it doens't have OpenCL >.<

feral ferry
solid bough
#

I don't think it's poorly optimized. I just think it has to do so much shit

orchid prism
#

Well no. Cause it's entirely CPU limited xD

feral ferry
#

That's not DF's problem but AMD's bad drivers thonk

solid bough
#

no no, Mansen was correct.

#

I was having flights of fancy

fringe salmon
#

ìt could be a 10x increase in opengl, if the cpu is the bottleneck it will be 0 fps more

solid bough
#

hoping it would have at least some cross stuff like OpenCL but it doesn't

feral ferry
#

Fair enough

fringe salmon
#

also opengl is not opencl

solid bough
#

didn't say it was.

feral ferry
#

With the new patch, maybe they'll optimize the game a bit

solid bough
#

not mutually exclusive.

feral ferry
#

It seems to be releasing fairly soon

solid bough
#

I was meaning some way of, like, splitting the tasks between CPU/GPU and such.

orchid prism
#

To quote Sseth on the matter. havo

solid bough
#

who?

trim rock
#

Yeah, actually the one thing that's multithreaded in DF is the graphics stuff ecks dee

feral ferry
#

I've never played DF but it seems really good

solid bough
#

enables rendermax

feral ferry
#

Especially the new patch screenshots

solid bough
#

Dwarf Fortress is super good

feral ferry
#

Is it worth playing

#

Mod support?

solid bough
#

100%

#

its free and can play ti right now

feral ferry
#

I know but I'm waiting

trim rock
#

I will buy the premium ver. just for giggles and then switch it to text mode because it looks awesome

feral ferry
#

When it's on steam I'll give it a go

trim rock
#

oh it's beautiful

feral ferry
#

What's the premium version about?

solid bough
#

i haven't bene spoiling myself on the newer stuff. btu this looks so pretty i can cry

#

premium as in Steam Version*

orchid prism
#

More "user friendly" UI and skins.

solid bough
#

cause thats 20 dollars needed for donation more or less adn to keep the project going

feral ferry
#

Did they announce that Steam version's gon be paid? thonk

solid bough
#

and yeah to pay for massive overhaul

#

yeah

#

from the start

trim rock
#

Well no, the only difference between premium and classic is that the premium version is gonna come with fancy graphics and music and stuff, the classic version is gonna look like that screenshot and will always be free

feral ferry
#

I'm withholding my hype for now if it's good or not

#

I hope it's better than rimworld at the very least

trim rock
#

And people can keep making their own graphics mods too

solid bough
#

though this screenshot annoys me. WHAT HOT KEY PRESS AAAAA ITS NOT LISTED ME SCREAM

#

its good already, Vexx
