Enjoy the sight
that's weird looking grass
Its mycelium
I watched a youtube video on a lies of p review before playing it, big mistake
Guy didnt like some of the games me mechanics because it made his gf "upset" if she lost or couldn't do something. And said they were bad mechanics
From the reviews it seemed it was a waste of 10 years and millions of dollars
They changed it alot
Looks boring as fuck and nothing like black flags combat. Like they originally said theyd do
i got some co-op today
group event try to take done some elite boss pirate captain
the skull and bones not have hand combat what black flag have, it have that ship combat and its similar for black flag
there is co-op thing on blag flag so people seems misunderstand things these days
I saw a review of Skull n Bones and it looked like one of the worst games ever. I laughed out loud at the way you get resources by sailing next to an island and never getting off your ship. I mean, they put decent effort into the graphics, and no effort into gameplay. Which is what Ubisoft do best. 10/10
you get more resources plundering it
you know what I think happened. After they scrapped the last iteration, they were told to just put out anything so they could get the initial sales then write the game off.
Ubisoft forgot how to make games
You can’t board ships for real either, it’s a cutscene lol
and call it an AAAA game
well that doesn't mean it's good though. The psychological element of crafting to get better things is addictive when done right, but it doesn't mean the gameplay is worth the grind. Like, you have to look at what the game is supposed to be. A pirate ship game where you battle other ships and have the pirate experience. They got perhaps 10% of that with the sailing and shooting cannons part, but the rest is filler. It's not good design, it's a rush job to get a product out by using standard practice grind A to get B.
I rmbr reading about how they couldn’t cancel it because they had made a deal with the government of Singapore that they need to make and finish a successful product
marc say 999% of the games thesedays
technically if AAA is a budget investment, then it is a AAAA game as they wanted millions on previous scrapped iterations, so people are paying for the mistakes with the £70 price tag. I find it horrid, especially for what is there.
AAAA
Most AAAs are like this today sadly. Unfinished expensive crap
yeah I agree. Thats why I don't play many games right now. Path of Exile, a bit of Overwatch, some League of Legends perhaps. But mostly the current generation of games leaves me wondering if they actually know what they are doing, or are they just accountants.
Lies of p is a AAAAA game then by ubisoft's standards
Horizon, God of War, Death Stranding, only few large IPs that are worth their advertised price imo
I must say when there is an exception, it's usually exceptional. Like Elden Ring for example. I have to say that is a perfect game for it's genre. Not to everyone's taste, but it got everything right.
skull and bones is good casual play
You might as well play sea of thieves at this point
You’ll prly get better gameplay
yeah Sea of Thieves impressed me
For its genre?
yeah well its not a perfect RTS is it
Fromsoft is the only studio making games in elden rings genre
shie of thieves was camp fest and solo-player hell
no thats not true. Team Ninja do also
Those shitty little souls like games with shit animations, hitboxes and bad environment/level design dont even count
Lords of fallen is a bad souls like too
Cant really say that about team ninja tho. Nioh 1 & 2 were good and amazing. WoLong was very good for the casual and felt really good as a wushu style souls-like. The new Shogun game they are bringing out should be decent too
Sekiro had decent gameplay
Any soulsborne game has decent gameplay
Except dark souls 2
They drunk too much alcohol cooking that up
Sekiro was beautiful to look at (although sepia got annoying after a while). However it suffered one fatal flaw for me. It made you grind mobs to get back to a failed boss fight. And if you got hit, it made you want to reset. That was frustrating and felt like it was wasting the time of the player for content.
Fucking parry
That's the whole point in sekiro
Parry, break their guard, attack
Run past them.. like every soulsborne player does?
well again that would prove my point that it was not a good thing to do when they could have done what Elden Ring did. Have a waypoint outside the boss room. Saves time and frustration.
It's to humble you
So you learn from your mistakes so you dont have to make the run again.
Be glad elden ring didnt have boss runbacks
And the runbacks in sekiro are nothing like the ones in demon souls
well I consider it pointless. I got to the boss to attempt to kill him. So I die 20 times to a boss, but I also have to kill 10x20 mobs on the way back.... or run and avoid them. Seems like in a game where punishing the player with overpowered mechanics, you might want to at least show some empathy and give them the opportunity to just do the boss.
Your will is weak
maybe people like that tho. it's just my opinion
Youd never be a green lantern
I wonder when there will be a souls-like that combines roguelike so the game is shifty hard, but you only get one shot like Hades, but you lose all your stuff.
So hades
Beef is naturally processed grass
Pork is just natrually processed table scraps
Nothing is better than haggis!

Phew, I didn't have much time this week. I only had about 6 hours.
I remembered that I saved a sample of ye olde not-so-smartphone glitching out the speakers and just went with it.
I'm not too dissatisfied with the result, but it could do with better mixing/stereo-fielding/mastering.
I hope you are all having a good time and are in good health!...
EGS' systray notification is misleading. It says get this week's free game and keep it forever
Remember to add this to your game's startup code
UGameplayStatics::GetGameInstance()->GetEngine()->bAllowBugs = false;
I feel like every time you send me something you are getting better and better 😆
Also that glitchy sound gave me nostalgia lol
linkedin requires verification of identity via Persona. When It redirects me to persona it only accepts a passport, which I don't have.
@broken sigil can you move to japan and get a job at Fromsoftware
And make bloodborne 2
👉👈
that involves leaving the house
Think about the bigger picture
Big house.
Bloodborne sequel is the most wanted game in known gaming history. Sony is sitting on gold mine
You just gotta convince them
Hey, I thought it is fifa 2025
That game has been the same since its first release on n64
Sales beg to differ (golden shower noises)
Also the next CoD.
Laxasia, Simon manus, and nameless puppet better be good fights
I do know I'm in for a gank fight soon. Not looking forward for that tbh
Call of Doomy: Infinite Master Chief
Wonder how this lawsuit will go for Activision, they might need to borrow alot from MS to make CoD 😛
They will sell some ingame assets in 10 colors and will make the money.
I won't hesitate to pay for any game that has both the Master Chief and the Doom Slayer lmao
just the game tho, if it's actually a paid game
if it's F2P, I might consider paying for cosmetics
I mean I have no problem paying for a game that I'm clearly enjoying
(of course, it's a different story when it's expensive and I don't have enough to pay)

I don’t think I’ve heard a song from those guys in a decade or so
LI’s never done anything good for me tbh
Why are some physical stores so expensive. I wanted a random orbital sander, it was 205 in one local store, 190 in another, on local online shop it was 131, but then I found a polish site that was only 86 euros lol. And it's not even a scam cause it's arriving today. So the difference between the lowest and highest price here is just more than the price of the item, which is wild.
how am I supposed to buy local like this
the store I work at is typically more expensive than other stores in the area, so I shop there instead 🙂
I noticed this for all power tools though, even ignoring poland, everything online is like 40-50% cheaper
they need that extra money to pay you the big bucks
our local hardware shops are the online shops
everyone involved in the chain wants a little margin
so it may get produced to poland
shipped to some distributor
shipped to the store
sold to you
well, not sold to me in this case
also everyone in the chain has to pay rents/employees, etc.
this one local store that was the most expensive for this sometimes has some crazy deals though
got my drill really cheap
maybe they really had to get rid of it
they're also selling a set of 3 kinds of vaccuums for 99 bucks
yea, but they suck
idk, they have crazy actions on stuff all the time
I sure hope so
Haha xD I meant to ctrl+F a warning I got in here
To spy on living rooms, the TV has an array of four Knowles SiSonic KSM2 MEMS microphones, a big camera module (with a motorized shutter that covers the camera, at least) run by its own SoC with a deep learning accelerator block, and a fucking TI IWR6843 60GHz 3D object detection radar
edit: their privacy policy says the camera and its imagery ...
i mean, what did they expect to find in that thing?
I mean, it's a free tv
it's an ad display which is able of showing TV content
how dumb does one need to be to get that tv
to get a TV at all
i haven't watched TV in like 20years except for some stuff on netflix
and getting normal ads on twitch now reminds me of why i didn't miss it a single minute
I mean I watch a lot of movies and series, so a TV doesn't seem strange to have?
i really fear the day when you cannot buy tv's without AI
TV is great to watch stuff with Group like family or friends
yea, i don't have friends
I dont like Friends, Joey annoys me
Unless you are lonely then a VR headset would be the better investment
and when i see family i prefer other things over sitting in front of TV
i was really considering a Quest3 apprently it's pretty good for it's price?
but on the other hand, i should rather work than wasting time on this
dont you need friends for a quest
do you? welp...
Do you?
Just a Facebook account from what I hear
wait, you need a FB account for that thing?
Yeah
Since we launched Meta accounts on Meta Quest in August 2022: You won't be required to use Facebook to log into Meta VR products. If you're new to VR, you'll create a Meta account as part of the setup process.
but yea, that's probably just a FB account in disguise 😄
They had to by the EU I think
well since they linked FB, IG and Whatsit pretty much
Isn't this outdated? I'm pretty sure last year alone a lot of people were complaining about the necessity of a Facebook account to use quest
No
They wanted to remove the oculus account and only have fb
But that was illegal
So they made the meta thing
Afaik
but honestly idc
I had an oculus account RIP
i'm more curious if it's technical good, like can you watch a movie for 2h without getting nausea from blurry image or whatever
i haven't ever used VR stuff, so i'm a newb
A friend of mine was easily getting nauseous just by having the quest on. But after playing through HL alyx it was gone
Everything seems to need to have an account atp
well, you could just block internet access once it's set up?
Idk. Maybe you need internet access when you first turn it on
Tbh idc personally. My Facebook account is only used for school stuff so the can collect that data all they want
did nvidia do that?
lol which hardware manufacturer doesnt at this point
Login to claim your warranty
Thats not even legal in Australia so I dunno why they bother lol
exactly lol, it's annoying asf
Welcome to your new VR headset, just read these short legal documents before we continue
that's probably 100% what happens when you turn it on the first time
tbh games with long legal stuff at the beginning bug me
its a tiny bit of friction but its a first impression, if you hit me up with legal documents before the foot rub... yeah
cue CoD
literally 4 pop ups that show you all the agreements you need to accept
dammit I want to play Helldivers 2 but 1. that fucking rootkit anti-cheat and 2. I'm too poor 😭
I guess they dont want people cheating the progression system then selling off accounts
gah this planet I swear
I've never understood banning account selling.
If people want to put the effort into grinding something, and someone wants to spend that money on buying a complete account, why stop them.
It's not harming the economy.
That's definitely a perspective I never considered. Don't know why I forgot people are unable to be honest individuals
Theoretically how would you distinguish a hacked account and a sold account though, assuming you don't support it, how do you protect the victim there?
And put a tax on it. Like blizzard and wow gold farm!
:question: should mons calamari build the monscalamary spacefleet with generative calamari?
:8ball: Most likely.
Because you want to help your players with legitimately lost accounts, but you also don't want to support scams, but you don't also want to allow account sharing
It's messy
Generative calamari is a horrifying concept i didn't even prepare to encounter today
Yeah I guess if you wanted to not do that, you'd have to not provide support for a hacked account either
This is why I'm never touching games like that until I can hire someone that figures out that bit for me :P
So realistically, I'm never touching a game like that
Of course
adds progression system to make money, ends up spending more on security... adds mtx to ensure profit
@pearl elk is Generative Calamari the horrifying concept as raindust said it to be
I like how there is this small time insurance company called Amazon in belgium with a wordpress website, so Bezos had to use amazon.com.be as url for the belgian storefront
hi
lots of shit, Halo Infinite's anticheat is the most unintrusive anti-cheat ever
I never even noticed it operating anywhere and the game has 0 cheaters
then there's EA anticheat: https://www.ea.com/en-au/security/news/eaac-deep-dive
it's kernel based but only operates when a game that uses it
I guess it's better than nothing
vanguard is the most intrusive and dangerous AC I ever interacted with lol
it started asking me for all sorts of random access permissions
and then asked me to reboot my PC so it can do some shit
I was like "fuck that, this valorant is 100% not worth it, I'm sure"
no
it's only there in games that has MP
I played their Dead Space remake and it didn't run when I launched it
¯_(ツ)_/¯
I love how they use FIFA 23 for justification of this AC lol
so my car is ready, but now the guy needs to ask our company if I can just pick it up like that or I need to go together with colleagues lol, cause apparently they have like 2 or 3 cars ready for us
so sad
@sand oxide New Avatar! 😄
Tie the two cars to your car and drive around town screaming, "GOTTA DRAG 'EM ALL!"
They didn't want to surprise you.
way of the water didn't release that long ago, what is the new avatar?
🤣 I meant HER new avatar - profile pic.
now you're just making excuses
But, I assume the new Avatar will be Way of Sand.
I hope for way of Fire
Easiest way to beat the Navi, really. Dump a shit ton of sand and turn the whole planet into a desert.
oh it's gonna be fire
cameron said in an interview it was gonna be about the Na'vi ash people apparently
which are believed to exist in the volcanic regions of Pandora
How could you?!
Having proper comprehension and understanding on the internet; the heresy!
Warhammer 40k: Darktide
- Your NVidia GTX 970M is insufficient to run this game -
Also Warhammer 40k: Darktide - 45 FPS with FSR 2. Plays great.
😄
what game is this
Warhammer 40k: Darktide
40k is starting to sound like a sequence number of their games
wouldn't suprise me if there were 40000 warhammer games already
Probably around 40 by now, at least. 😄
some of my ex colleagues worked on a warhammer 40k game even
I did a little too
but a 2d one
Warhammer 40,000: Shootas, Blood & Teef
it's pretty good though if you're into 2d platforming shooters
I like that! I played the demo. 😄
If you have real money, like a proper person, you'd buy that computer.
seems a bit outdated
It has Windows 666, the latest imperial operating system. Very reliable.
Corrupts your data with a 99% success rate.
We're off to a good start here.
Cordial negotations.
I didn't just kill them; I smashed their faces in with that shovel.
Finally, I picked up an autogun from another corpse and killed MANY of those escaped prisoners. Fun stuff.
caaaaarllll... that kills people caaarrrlll
dammit, how 3 cars can hit each other on a straight road... wasted 1h30m in traffic jam
@chrome gull ^^ regarding #lounge message
ahh noice, noted!
lmao
sooo put your players in an traffic jam for 1:30h
most engaging gameplay ever
So, it was u I was stuck in traffic :/
met this little thing on my wanderings today
it's a frog
and for that, you must be punished
good question
I think it's a frog, toads have warts
If there is moss on the north side of a frog it's a toad
That is a frog though. Mating season is here.
@empty dune Darktide is insane! 😄
Hi
No.
plenty of people find out fake princes then
what's that game?
Sims5
Roblox
WH40k: Darktide
thought about writing The Sims, too
according to my research the thing above might be indeed a frog
this is the reference image i'm basing my opinion on
this sounds so like satire
Frogs are generally skinnier than toads and have an almost slimy look to their skin.
long weekend, have had today off, and I've gotten almost nothing productive done
woohoo perfect weekend!
i got something done at least
even tho i'm not sure if i'm satisfied with my solution, but it works for now
nooo... I wanted to get atleast something done on my project
is it the end of the day? then sleep it off and start tomorrow
still got a few hours before bedtime. But tomorrow I work, so I wont have time/energy till next weekend
ahhh bummer
well, if you're feeling like working
start now
block all your distractions and stuff
I've been trying to make a mesh/tileset for my map generator, but I've got no idea what I'm doing. no ideas either
proc gen using prefabs?
yeah basically. each mesh is a tile
ohh 2D?
2d grid, but 3d world
I'm confused lmao
last screen I took:
isn't it just an x/y problem? pun
grid? (sorry it's 11pm and I get stupider as time progresses)
so it's kind of a dungeon/maze generator?
I'm also getting stupider by the minute 😄
welcome to the club!
yeah, a dungeon gen. Currently have a room/hallway thing, and a cave like gen
where are you having problems? I've worked with these systems before and I think I can help?
just use some RGB squirrel noise to figure out what to place where
not the systems I'm having issues with atm, was taking a break from that bit, and working on the actual meshes, but dont know what I'm doing with designing this sci-fi type layout. I'm a terrible artist
modelling or level design?
modelling
level design is handled by the generator. Just need appropriate meshes for it
won't you need to make prefabs by hand?
making the meshes in blender. No prefabs like pre-made rooms or anything. Just each wall tile has its own mesh, different floor tiles, etc
it works pretty good actually. Just limited by my artistic/modelling ability right now.
I've had cave/mines and castle dungeons in previous versions of the system, so its quite versatile
only real issue I've yet to solve is lighting... right now I'm completely dependant on lumen
and I do want to add in prefabs at some point
the systems I worked with let you create prefabs so that you still had control over what gets added
it's basically just a layout generator
so here, lighting issues are solved because you can place them by hand
yeah that would make it easier on that front. I do have a thing where I can spawn blueprints in, which could be a lighting system. like those walls lights seen in my screenshot above, I could have it spawning in actual point lights. But its all RNG, so entire areas could be super dark, while others really well lit
maybe establish a rule that there should be a light blueprint spawned every X units away
Most stable workbench
.
I'm not really sure how to enforce that, atleast with wall lights... as it uses a contraint solver. About to test a thing that will add ceiling lights on a grid tho
once the code compiles, and if it doesnt have errors
right makes sense
Lmao ikr?
Its amazing. And the sound track is 👌
Also, I am happy with the AI bot teammates, too.
Bippity. Boppity. Zappity
They just... work.
The only problem is, this game is going to create a few psychopath Jason-Xs in society for sure.
The melee combat is just... immersive and educational. 😄
Get real teammates though, ai cannot do anything above the level 2 difficulty
Lmao i love it
Oh yeah, I just ran a mission with a full squad. 😄
It's amazing how random people support each other when everyone is going to die every second. 😄
Yep
The playerbase is awesome
The final extractions are so cool
Coverfire while retreating
Yeah. They kind of have to be though, the playerbase that is. If they be selfish for even one minute, the entire squad is screwed.
And by god, the flame effects are SO very good.
Ive had people sacrifice themselves just so i could be the only person to evac to complete the mission
Blowing gas tanks up actually makes sense in this game. 😄
Did you try zealot? That flamer is 👌👌👌
That's my char, yes. 😄
I started with a veteran
I just started playing today and purchased a shotgun right now. Trust level 4.
Zealot was my second
My devotion to the Emperor shall rise even further to great heights.
I shall create an UNREAL shrine to his divine glory and sell it for $50 on Steam.
I hope we can scavenge a space marine armour suit somewhere down the line.
I doubt it.
But, still....
Nah, best you can do is cobble together something that looks like a sister of battle with the premium cosmetics
That's what i did
Yeah, I figured. 😦
Moar heretics shall die to compensate for (lack of) space marine e-peenness. 😄
I actually spent like 40$ more in the cash shop
On top of buying the game full price lol
I just installed it via Game Pass and haven't explored the cash shop.... yet.
I plan on stealing Dieter's bread money.
He can go without eating bread for a few days, FOR THE EMPEROR!
Its not required, just cosmetics. But my god they look gooooood
Of course it is required.
Proper attire evokes proper devotion.
Proper devotion evokes proper prayers.
Proper prayers evoke proper grace.
Proper grace evokes proper murderous battle rage.
Life must be 'proper'.
What about proper ogryns?
Lemme see if i have the game installed
I can show you my characters
@lofty lark oi, i found a new darktide fan
darktide is on GP??
it is
Huh. Another situation that could have easily been defused by apologizing and moving on
or it could have easily been diffused by saying "Oh you are mistaken, but it's ok it happens"
That too
it's the people that are the problem lol, they could've just said that those aren't their pronouns
don't need to be an ass about it
People take offense too easily on both sides of this issue. I say this a transgender erson myself
plus "bro" is universal, I call everyone bro
I call everyone dude.
"hey man, calm down"
Most people want to be polite and kind, but they sometimes get genuinely confused and don't realize what they are saying could be considered problematic. Gentle correction and assuming good intentions helps a lot in these situation
there's a reason why I only lurk on twitter
there's no way I'm interacting with that
fair enough
I'm convinced it's the same with the alternative crowd. Crystal healing, chemtrails, wifi sensitivity. That kind of thing.
plus there's the people inventing pronouns out of their ass
Language evolves so that's no bother
I am not going to call someone fae/fum or whatever
you don't have to. But it's all about how polite you want to be
you can be male, you can be female, you can be neither or either
Yeah, my response was to immediately test them without them knowing about it. They failed.
Science!
that's all there is
From now on, everyone may only communicate with me through C++. I only respond to functions in my API. hands over API
That's how it sounds to me.
imagine that I'm telling someone about this person
my wifi light is on, but there is no activity
do you know how much I need to think about before uttering a sentence?
god forbid we have to think :p
don't tell me you don't understand
yeah I understand. I used to be transphobic but I educated myself and resolved my ignorance
thinking is hard and it gives me a headache
okay, fine, I guess you can call yourself whatever you want
i was talking about pronouns
turns out this is not just it
lmao
in the situation in the screenshot, the person is not responsible for any pronoun use until they are requested to use specifics. You can't just guess these things. But once you are requested it costs nothing to be polite. But that doesn't mean the other person has a right to be rude about it either.
According to a recent survey by some local Republican Party group, there are three gender:
Male
Female (Housewife and Mother)
Female (Working woman)
I don't mind people subscribing to N amount of genders. I'm fine with that.
What bothers me is when they try to force it on others. Making regular conversation into a potential minefield, and disrupting established standards for inter person communication.
a housewife/mother is a working woman and I would say works harder than a career woman because it's 24/7
I don't disagree.
I have to say every single trans person I've talked to or met has been exceptionally polite about their pronouns
exactly
Girls aren't straight? I'm OK with this.
there's some with actual identity crisis issues and there's some who just want something extra or special
i will hit you if you dont use my proper pronouns: fucking/idiot
well then I'll gladly call you that lmfaooo
cat/acid
Extraterrestrial being?
too verbose?

bruh I keep bringing glasses of water and when I reach for the glass it's fucking empty
happened 6 times by now
wtf is happening
bring a large bottle next time
I drank some water the other day and I swear it tasted of twice as much oxygen as hydrogen. I was most confused.
maybe the water was off
@empty dune Shotgun is the convict's bolter.
enlightening shit, never knew about this extremely rare action that only a few people are knowledgeable about
correct. on multiple dimensions
Did you use the alternate firing mode? It just clears the screen in one shot.
would adding more oxygen make it more acidic?
including one that dissolves cats
or more based?
You might have dihydrogenmonoxide poisoning. 😦
@chrome gull It's was added to Game Pass last week or so, I think.
ohhhh
no way lmfaoo
I drank some H2O3 the other day and my water had a hole in it.
try the las rifle
do you guys know about prion diseases and/or fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva
Does it have AoE clearance?
If not, shotgun might be nerfed in the future.
is that the only game that has laser rifles?
melta gun should have a small aoe
Right now, it's the GO TO weapon at least in the early game.
It's SO EASY to use. 4th mouse button to load special ammo, fire, rinse, repeat.
Entire mobs die in one shot.
zealot gets melta?
The crosshairs are also conveniently made, unlike some of the autoguns.
you should play Bulletstorm man
I did. I liked it. 🙂
not sure tbh. It's been a good 15 years since I last played 40k seriously
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O7hgjuFfn3A
Since we're on the topic of 40k. I feel like I should mention this. Not seeing it is a crime. 😛

Automatically.
ohh
Said mouse key is right next to my thumb. 😄 SO CONVENIENT.
there's like this massive document filled to the brim with game ideas that I've been cooking for years
@slim atlas so that's why your book and game aren't done yet....
problem:
do you use a G502 by any chance?
what?
co_await
I am using an HP Gaming mouse at the moment. It was the cheapest at a reliable quality on Amazon.
LMFAO same here
I have a more expensive Circle gaming mouse, but the mouse wheel broke. The rest of the mouse is fine though.
where does this link even take me...
Well, I have TWO of them. Both their wheels broke.
According to a recent survey by some local Republican Party group, there are three gender:
Male
Female (Housewife and Mother)
Female (Working woman)
Shush you. There are 5,922 genders and you know it.
otherwise it's the best gaming mouse to have ever existed
astartes 2 when
Oh, I definitely had two G502s.
And yes, they broke because of too much clicking. 🙂
there's apparently a G502X rn which has higher quality switches
MX518 or nothing
I am not going to spend 5k INR to check lol
Well, Games Workshop kinda ate the guy. So it's more of an if, depending on how they digest him.
but I want a G502
M500 every 2 years because they use trash switches or nothing
If Space Marine 2 is made just like Darktide, then I won't be working at all for some time. 😄
it's fucking amazing
same with G502
ahh so it's a logitech issue
Gotta make you buy those mice somehow.
they make functionally awesome shit that breaks in 2 years max
that pariah nexus he made was pretty good
Computer mice don’t need a million extra little thumb buttons
About 10 will do.
Million are certainly not required.
2 thumb buttons is good, one for forward (redo) and one for backward (undo)
Yep not a single button more
I binded (bound?) my G502's buttons in such a way that I could basically operate my PC with 1 hand
Four on top, four to each side, plus the wheel.
That'd be sufficient.
Right now, I have a four on top, two to the left combo.
aww, the sith code update got rolled back
file explorer? press a button. task manager? press a button. steam? press a button.
each side??
Yep. Potions on the left side and Skills on the right side, in PoE. 😄
idk how often a day you start steam to dedicate a own mouse button for it...
I'm pretty sure my mouse has stealth capabilities...
PoE - Path of Exile.
no, power over ethernet
G502s come with a dedicated snipe button that drops sensitivity lol
my mouse is a tank character. ive dropped it so many times now and still it works great
Elon hates you. Only satellites from now on! JOIN HIM!
Like WTF is this monstrosity??!?
yeah that's overkill
Are you going to dial someone with your mouse?!?
i had one like that, still miss it
a one hand keyboard with optical sensor on the bottom
Actually, that's very useful in PoE.
thats a futuristic main battle tank, easy
The numbering was unnecessary though.
I don't play games like PoE so I wouldn't know lol
It starts mattering mid-late game, when you are fighting 850 monsters on one map.
You have to cast around 8 skills, maintain your auras, and spam potions.
very usefull for gamedev as well. add all the keyboard shortcuts to it
All this while attacking.
idk why but games like LoL, Diablo, Dota 2 don't interest me in the least bit
Because they are 'proper' games.
😛
I look at them and nothing makes me want to be like "oh, this looks good and I should try it"
hahaha fuck you lol
Sorry guys hang on, somebody is calling me on my mouse phone right now….
go talk about proper games with daddy blizzard selling skins that cost enough to buy TWO other games
As long as you have your mouse's bluetooth earbud extension plugged in.
or riot who also does the same thing
They stopped being proper a while ago.
Only God Todd is the proper game maker left alive.
I wouldn't know
correct
starcraft 2 was the last proper blizzard game
Just you watch! Once Starfield's horse patch gets implemented, it'll be the most played game for the next fifty years.
bro will drop TESVI and FO5 before dying and the industry landscape will change so much
that every other studio will be scrambling to pivot their games
i honestly cant tell if youre being serious
I mean Skyrim and FO4 still have 20K+ players literally after a decade since launch
my condolences
And I mean seven days of PLAYING TIME.
okay let's keep it ambiguous then
i have 60 hours in Starfield
The only reason I stopped is that my save file became unstable, because I never finished a single campaign mission and am still on Run 1 at level 48. 😄

Once the unstable patch becomes stable and releases for Game Pass, I'll get back to it.
ohh lmao yeah they launched a fix (TWO fixes) for it
already done
Not on Game Pass.
yes on game pass
tf
Cool.
Big lawdy energy
Someone made a mech mod for Starfield.
No need for a land vehicle, just pilot a robot with missile launchers attached.
I tell people that I'm a Cancer with Sagittarius rising, which means I don't believe in astrology.
I have a feeling that BGS will use mechs as a selling point for one of the DLCs
As long as I get to play with Call Your Ship mod, I am good. 🙂
That changed my gameplay SO MUCH.
Literally calling people cancer seems kinda mean...
Of course, my ship landed right through a wheat silo and impaled itself straight through its center, but still.
Astrology signs are old, what's your battlestar galactica colony?
Im a caprican 👌
damn
I just opened my scanner and zapped into the ship
I like watching my ship fly and land near me.
Of course, I have to run away as it lands, because it targets the player's location for landing. 😄
fuck I WOULD'VE bought this if I DIDN'T OWN every game in the whole franchise ALREADY
I want that mini-nuke model :((
3D print it.
Oh come on. It's Bethesda. You are supposed to buy every re-release. I mean, I've bought Skyrim 3 times at least. 😄
The last two fallout fans, after Todd Howard reignited the industry (and Earth with it), circa 2040, colorized
what makes you think that I want to buy a whole f***ing 3D printer to print the model
Narnia💯
I never bought a game twice 😎
no
only once
not more than that
you better run
can i race instead?
I wish someone comes up with a better monetization model other than lootboxes and battle passes
I hate them
Oh well if we get to pick our own mythos, then I was born under the sign of Remmirrath with Earendil rising
depends
what happened to that?
are you a racist?
Because then you'd truly be nuts and properly so. 😛
ah goddamnit I meant to add an FPP mode to the last remaining vehicle in my game and go to sleep over TWO HOURS ago
fuck this and fuck me ugh
This cat had too much protein.
400 grams of protein
Lotr?
A winner is you!
I never had the patience to read silmarillion
Or however it's spelt
Big fan of the original trilogy though
Return of the king was 🔥🔥
Two towers was incredibly painful though
It's just another story about some dudes and a dudette or two, questing for riches and power, screwing something up, and then fixing it.
It's about a genteel country squire and his servant who come into possession of a powerful artifact of evil and they can only save the world by going for a bloody long walk
do you know about the 7 types of narratives classification?
No. I don't fill my head with knowledge.
It's unnecessary.
well I shall force you to fill your head with this knowledge
Say goodbye to your family
I shall promptly purge the sacred memoriums.
Duo's coming for them
noooo 😱
I fill my head with too much knowledge 😭
it's almost cursed
I swear that damned owl is stalking me
Yes like knowledge about the holy trinity: attack, support and heavy
the owl doesn't send me notifications when i usually do them
it sends them in the early morning
and afternoon
and 12 am
I do my lessons between 8-11pm
hahaha fuck off
No
@chrome gull The accursed link of Chaos has been consigned to the abyss. There shall only be 'story'.
yeah that changed my entire goddamn perspective when it comes to stories
I still don't depend on constructing mine by directly referring to the list because I'm worried shit might be too cliché
Ignored.
do you know about tvtropes.org
I was asking Andar lol
Too bad.
bleh

just turned 30, and yea, I sorta do. 30's where great.
whats even better is being early 20s
no responsibility, find around and f around times
thats unfortunate
cant say mine is going great either but I have no complaints
mostly because I waste my time with UE instead of socializing
same, partially XD
turned 30 last year, mixed feelings so far
what makes 30s valuable is economy and opportunity
alongside with freedom
20s = high energy, no money
30s = moderate energy, high money
40s = low energy, ??? money
being around your 20s in Turkey sucks even more though
cats though, I will always love them no matter how old I am
cats exist because of that
cats are life
you aren't supposed to punch them

only if you deserved it
cats CAN punch you
you CANT punch cats
wtf is wrong with you
i haven't punched a single cat
stern stare
glares
I don't understand. Are you saying you reacted slowly?
OK. Well you set higher standards for yourself than I could ever meet then.
Surely Cthulu could just kill them with Eldritch god powers though?
Hello Cthulhu's only power is turning you into an uwu girl
"I'll hide my mid animations by using neat flowy physics cloaks"
And then I made my main character a dog

fancy way of "we cant let russia place nukes to space first" 
yet they still did it at 2024
eren still fancy that russia was sloppy and made bigger is better and the n1 rocket got not got long
this rocket https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N1_(rocket)
The N1/L3 (from Ракета-носитель Raketa-nositel', "Carrier Rocket"; Cyrillic: Н1) was a super heavy-lift launch vehicle intended to deliver payloads beyond low Earth orbit. The N1 was the Soviet counterpart to the US Saturn V and was intended to enable crewed travel to the Moon and beyond, with studies beginning as early as 1959. Its first stage,...
i knew this one but never saw its photo before
Hey guys, anyone know a good place to find 3d generalists looking to build there portfolio?
Pls @ me
Not only in this discord but in general
My god whoever wrote this software for these headphones decided to give me anxiety
They have 70 hour battery life.... but the percentage drops from 100-80% within half an hour
And then from 80-30% takes 3 days lol
stupid lerp function
it sure damn sounds like it lol
I have a slight theory.... I know some products do this so the users don't actually charger their stuff to "real" 100% often
Since it's not usually recommended to charge to 100%, it degrades battery life over time, I feel like this shows "fake" 100% and maybe around that 80% it actually is in line with the real battery percentage
I finally decided to invest in a good pair of headphones and now I'm regretting that I didn't do it sooner
I kinda underestimated how much good audio plays a role in immersion, be it music or games lol
lol i would do otherwise
so battery will die earlier
and they will rebuy
That sounds like a lie
Also noticed another interesting thing
If I plug them into my pc to charge before turning off the PC it will stop charging once the PC is off
If I plug them in after the PC is turned off they charge just fine 
lol the first part made sense to me, power to the USB ports gets killed when I turn off my PC afaik
the 2nd part makes no sense tho lol
your PSU is a fire hazard 😛
usb ports are always powered, or at least were and are on all PC I ever owned 
idk, my mouse stops charging if I turn off my PC iirc
try unplugging it and plugging it back in after your PC is off, I'm curious if it will start charging
If I rmbr when I go to sleep I will
oh it's an option on my MB/asrock MBs
Makes sense, BIOS setting?
yeah
Makes sense why all my PCs always did this, I always had asrock mbs
that's actually very handy
Were waiting 3 weeks for an official document that are 2 PDF pages, came now and it list it's February 2023 and my name is wrong
hi
no
paper is correct, you've been spelling your name wrong
and the year it seems
Blame the post office.
Should use paper airplanes to transmit documentation; scientifically proven to be faster... in dreams.
it's an email so lol
Should use a dot matrix printer and send it by paper plane.
Guaranteed to reach you by the next lifetime.
Now, back on real world tasks:
Why people still repeating the sentence from Forrest Gump that says:
"life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you are gonna get"
windus did you know there is RC controlled paper airplane
All the boxes of chocolates today come with a paper that list everything included
yeah but forrest cant read
so that just confirms that the people who repeat that as a life lesson is just incompetent ?
yeah
No, I didn't. Does it perform well?
Has it airlifted food and medicines to Africa?
An update from Elon Musk and Neuralink.
It seems the chip-man isn't just playing table tennis with his mind, he's already enacting mouse clicks with it.
SO, as long as his brain doesn't reject the bloody chip in six months-two years, I think I wouldn't mind being able to play video games and develop games with a brain-chip. 😄
it work nice it use rc motor what you can use your smartphone
@median wraith so what did they call you, Davod?
Id forgotten how much I like Angelscript for UE
what were you printing though, badly formatted documents from Word Perfect?
that is 3d printed
My family was one of the first in Saudi Arabia (in 1990) to have a dot matrix printer. I remember spending three entire catridges printing banners. God, that banner maker software was terrific. 😄
I was five at the time. 😄
I honestly feel the same about Web1.0 though, I miss the web before all the heavy commercialism... before we could stream video ads in the background
the reprap 3d printers
I wonder if I can Neuralink my mental image onto paper via someone else's printer.
What if it just printed a picture of neurons firing
It'd be great for vfx textures, if that's still a thing.
How do you deal with intrusive thoughts while writing
void gamestuff(catcatcatcatcatcatcatcatcatcatcat
with the chip you mean, or in general?
With the chips
i know how not to write things down
I am assuming each brain-chip will behave like a prosthetic in many ways, requiring a certain 'focus' and concentration to activate and use. So, if you are writing, the chip should ignore everything you are doing, unless you are typing in MS Word with your mind. This is just conjecture on my part, mind you. Neuralink is very hush hush with the chippy chip details.
Locutus more like LikeAndFollowUs
I am mainly worried about rejection - the brain rejecting the chip and the patient requiring an operation to remove it. I also assume there's a limit to how long one chip can be left inside the brain. 🤷 Questions, questions.
This reminds me of the delivery driver from GitS
Or wait, it was a garbage man in the original wasnt it
Fuera, corre

Ih
bot broke
epon
You guys are just
scared.
thats all
its a little bot
with a scam link
what could happen
they steal your accounts?!
PAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
WEAK
Krita is nice, but Gimp has some nice/quick stuff I use it for.
Ye, apparently free gnu has no money.
Also, the latest Krita broke on my pen tablet.
gnu money
For example the Gimp's channels flow is very easy, e.g. textures packing.
lol
Hevedy Engine has the best lighting and colour grading
I mean the tools are about color grading so
@pearl elk did you had those ?
nah they are kinda light 💡
Darn. My satellite connection will take a few years to download and transmit it to me. You know, heavy air and all that.
What's in those tools? Lockpicks?
Found your site. Stalking you now.
Looking to move to other stores, itch don't accept some kind of payments
Serious question. Are you updating these tools to UE5?
those tools don't depend of any engine
should still be working on UE5 the same way
--- Hevedy - Toolbox provide suite of tools for (Unreal Engine 4 Only) that can convert world Static Meshes to Blueprint Instance Meshes or Instance Meshes to Static Meshes. ---
Someone should tell Lawdy theres images of Hevedy for DL
The Toolbox isn't the Image tool
the Toolbox yeah will be remade for UE5
and moved to the epic store
defuk
Ill take one for the team
so about the image tools, everything should be correct, about the unreal tools toolbox, will update those to a new version
@slim atlas pics of hevedy for 25$👀👀
We need the new Hevedy Toolbox
I think the Toolbox isn't enabled to be purchased, if its, don't
it's funny most of my tools, have a clone on the market
or more or less
that's for the OFs
Only Toolboxes
I like both the Image and the Toolbox.
there is a limitation with instances, and Epic didn't fixed the issue, so....
Well done, Hevedy. 🙂
the collisions cannot be changed post created the element
Marketing 404 failed those
despite of that web devs liked my non ue tool
Barring your tools being defaced and destroyed by Chaos GPT, I think I'll be purchasing them in the future. They seem nifty. I'll check the YouTube videos for more details after work.
The only alike thing I have in common with this guy is the sea in the back
and the fact the mustache don't merge with the rest of the beard
You are selling yourself under worth.
Its your true beauty!!!
