Kinda funny we're talking not about *if* the documents has been leaked, but *whe...
Happens all the time and not only in War Thunder 
Lol the doc is literally unclassified per U.S army publishing directorate
People really have lost the plot on what classified is
fringe salmon
The documents aren’t classified but are considered export-controlled data and are only available to the Department of Defense and its contractors.
really splitting hairs when the fact is its not something anyone should be able to access
feral ferry
really splitting hairs when the fact is its not something anyone should be able ...
Not how that works either
It's a restriction on distribution
For that specific document, it's bizarre, essentially, it's forbidden for distribution outside of U.S
But it's completely fine if it's hosted online, for anyone to view
Those restricted docs never made any sense cause people just share them online anyways

I know it's barebones and early access, but surely the underlying gameplay must be stellar

I suppose it also has the issue of being better with friends
normally not an issue, but I don't actually have friends
especially not the kind who would play such games with me
(plays arma 3 almost exclusively single player)

would definitely say it's a good first gun for a kid to learn to shoot
except...well
ergonomics are so lacking that I'd rather give a kid a real gun
like
ew
rancid hearth
yea... not great
barren pewter
for a survival situation, sure
but I ain't using that if I have a choice
rancid hearth
better to get a .22 air rifle
novel umbra
just add more requirements
needs to be a survival rifle, suitable for children, capable of home defense
anything else
barren pewter
a weapon suitable for a kid won't be great for home defence though
novel umbra
mini 14 is too small caliber
barren pewter
those are completely separate objectives...
novel umbra
a weapon suitable for a kid won't be great for home defence though
or as a survival rifle

bruh
barren pewter
tell me I'm wrong
rancid hearth
needs to be a survival rifle, suitable for children, capable of home defense
ar15 is good for all of those
novel umbra
💀
barren pewter
I wouldn't say an AR15 is great for young kids
barren pewter
for teenagers who have learned the basics of marksmanship on a .22lr
know proper form
definitely, although I'd actually opt for a heavier rifle first
novel umbra
imo children just shouldn't need a gun lol
barren pewter
...they don't need em at all
but learning to shoot well is a valuable skill
one you're best off learning slowly, over years
novel umbra
which they can learn when they are old enough to understand more about life lol
barren pewter
I don't see how taking a 6 year old out to shoot 2 litres with a .22lr gun is a problem tbh
just need to teach them the basic rules, then you can work on form with them
reactive targets give a visual indicator of "woah, you hit it"
as the kid grows into an adult, starts to learn more about the world, they'll graduate to more reasonable rifles
novel umbra
too bad that even .22lr is already lethal
barren pewter
tbh, I started to learn the basics of marksmanship with a .177 air rifle
if you're so worried about that, kiddo can start with something that'll just give NASTY welts

first had a red ryder bb gun at about 7 or 8 years old
then went to the range for the first time at about 9 or 10

we stock a specific species of fish frozen because the season is over
same product goes to sushi places

eh as long as it's frozen properly to kill any parasites then I see no issue

considering what's in the fish guts

y’all better vote for deep rock galactic to win the labor of love award

it's probably not a sales disaster, considering the hype that was built up before. but it could very well be the "Be Here Now" of bethesda game studios, meaning the blowback will come next time around they release a game

What now

y’all better vote for deep rock galactic to win the labor of love award
The Rock has his own game now?

he plays John Space Marine

I was gonna say, there are games that deserve labor of love far more than some rock game but
fringe salmon
why are you always like this
feral ferry
This is just video game troll awards
RDR2 the game that... got no updates and its multiplayer got ditched
Where's Terraria, Stardew Valley?
Rimworld? Factorio even?
No Man's Sky can always get nominated for a labour of love
fringe salmon
did Terraria even get any updates this year
feral ferry
So it's between Rust and the Rock game, and I would much rather see the rock game win
Considering I never actually played deep rock galactic
feral ferry
did Terraria even get any updates this year
Yeah, of course
Oh wait 1.4.5 isn't out yet lol
tModloader is the one that got good updates this year
Seems Terraria had virtually no updates in '23, bizarre

speaking of RDR2, it's 20bux on sale now... worth it? I find the original really fucking boring, will I get anything out of this

Have you ever watched a walkthrough of it?
If you know the story, the game is incredibly boring lol

I played through most of it when it came out, and tried to play it once again a couple of years ago but couldn't anymore, didn't grab me at all
feral ferry
It really has only the story to stand on, once you experience it, not much is there
One of the most overrated games that exists, imo
This is funny, I love how there's one game that just doesn't belong in that nominee list
drifting rose
One of the most overrated games that exists, imo
it's very cookie cutter by today's standards
but I dunno, maybe RDR2 is better? that's what I'm asking
feral ferry
I disliked RDR2, ditched it within 2 hours
It's just reskinned GTA
Actually good nominees?
Visual Style Award also has great nominees
"Best Game You Suck At" lacks Lies of P and Remnant II
How do you suck at Overwatch or FIFA24
Pizza tower getting any kind of nomination is great, would love for it to win best soundtrack
Steam awards do be very.. memey

Nothing can excuse paying the price of a luxury car for virtual ships
No way in hell can they pretend they put in 48,000$ worth of effort into designing those ships

the prices are ludicrous indeed
but I'll admit the ships have a jawdropping level of detail put into them

that price is for every ship in the game too which probably totals close to 150-200 ships by now counting all variants

Problems mostly arise using them multi-device / being offline at a time.
Steam has handled that better for me in the past.

Steam at least has a prompt asking you to pick and tells you the date they were made on
Very helpful
fringe salmon
yeah I dont multi devise so that doesnt happen for me
I guess if you have internet issue and start something before it can sync it might also have issues
tough jay
I will however say that I kind of stopped mixing between playing a game on deck and continuing on pc. As a lot of games don't know how to handle configs well.
For me my deck is offline most of the time I play on it as that is on the go.
grizzled bramble
Actually Steam cloud had my Cyberpunk save game which was nice they've got a site for the saves(built a new computer and wanted to continue from the save)

I am still playing the base game, played a bit today again. Actually pretty good now, but still definitely buggy / flawed.

The skill tree changed with the DLC though

Exploiting enemies is kind of easy and random car launches are common, as well as elevator buttons that don't work.
The later is an easy fix (just shift + tab disable steam input)

I drive with controller / continue until combat, then switch to keyboard / mouse until driving. It goes wrong somewhere mixing inputs.

Autosaves saved me actually when i played the first time because some bugged dialogue 😅
Ok 🤔
tough jay
As for the dlc, knowing me I'll play the base game then never really touch it again. Expansions just are not my thing for singleplayer games.
Still need to finish the Witcher 3 sometime (base game) but probably not gonna play / buy blood and wine
grizzled bramble
DLC was ok
The Witcher 3 DLC though that was good, especially Blood & Wine even Hearts of stone was good
tough jay
The problem is not if it's good enough, it's that I kind of don't want to return to an existing save after years, and I am generally done with a game for some time after playing the main game.
I also don't really like to restart the game for it.
The Witcher 3 was a bit too long for my tastes already.
grizzled bramble
Ah ok 👍
tough jay
I will try the game again probably somewhere next year.
fringe salmon
I would consider blood and wine like it's own game not as witcher tbh
I definitely rate it much higher than the base

I have been a bit more focussed in recent years, so maybe I'll play it / buy it when the time comes
