[runic aspen]

i did the new update in exactly this minute and will try now and look for it

[pearl mesa]

yes i think a lot of people are reporting this

[viral badger]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-wet-blow-dry-gif-1784120349342730252

[pearl mesa]

also some strange stuttering not previously there

[viral badger]

Damn:.. forgot I can’t cat post here

[hidden crater]

did anyone just get an update?

[marsh imp]

I got a 2GB update but no changelog? 🤔

[hidden crater]

Yeah, same

[elder scarab]

Ditto

[marsh imp]

Maybe an accidental push into the live branch 😂

But in all seriousness, i hope they dont start throwing out updates without changelogs.

[glacial spire]

I bought the dark water dlc but it doesnt show on my ingame list

[radiant bear]

where do the 2,6GB from last hour suddenly come from?

[celest folio]

same question

[pearl mesa]

you gotta finish the campaign before you can see DLC missions, in story mode that is

[marsh imp]

Well, im loading it now, gonna be curious :p

[hardy canopy]

It's probably a fix for the last patch

[glacial spire]

alright thank you very much

[jovial barn]

Is the loadout bug fixed now?

[hardy canopy]

As the past patch didn't fix all the problems it claimed it would

[marsh imp]

Whilst thats totally fine with me, changelogs is what we need.

[marsh imp]

Yeah, that was fixed in Darkwaters patch 1!
Made me really happy

[jovial barn]

Beautiful!!

Now the game is fully on!

[marsh imp]

It was such a pain when that bug occured xD

I spend nearly an hour setting everything up and the game was like

1 hour? make that 2, i got sooo salty as i was tired too xD

[green tusk]

Performance hotfix

[marsh imp]

Are we getting a changelog at least? I hate getting updates with absolutely no info :/

[green tusk]

IDK

[jovial barn]

Check announacments

[unborn anchor]

it's right there in steam

[marsh imp]

The last changelog i have is from December 17th, but we got an Update a few minutes ago as well.

[unborn anchor]

oh

[jovial barn]

With the bug you spend more time in the loadout than in the mission xD

[marsh imp]

Which is why im incredibly happy it was fixed rather quickly

[unborn anchor]

is that the mk18 bug?

[hidden crater]

Hope it doesn't mess with the mods

[marsh imp]

We're talking about the loadout bug that was going on before darkwaters patch 1

[unborn anchor]

so the mk18 bug?

[marsh imp]

God this game xD

[jovial barn]

The loadout bug which resets your loadout.

[hardy canopy]

Weird, i never experienced any performance issue

[unborn anchor]

yeah, so the mk18 bug 😄

[jovial barn]

ah not aware it was called that xD

[unborn anchor]

i dont know either

but it gives you mk18

[cunning storm]

bruh there's no sale on the dark waters dlc

god dammit

[jovial barn]

It keeps chaning to Default loadout and fucks around with the other custom ones.

[unborn anchor]

it just released

[thin path]

dlss still broken, its been months, this is a bad joke

[hardy canopy]

The mk18 is cool and all but what kills the gun is the inability to remove the front iron sight

[cunning storm]

yeah andI thought there would be a sale like a fool

[unborn anchor]

that's the thing making it cool and unique

[gaunt holly]

That fixed front sight is vibes

[unborn anchor]

we have a bunch of AR-15s in the game, it's alright if one has the FSB

[jovial barn]

SOOOO TRUE 😦

[hardy canopy]

You can just, do DLAA. It's easier on performance than traditional AA

[marsh imp]

Just full-auto and delete the direction the suspect was seen from 😂

[cunning storm]

Damn the sale is huge, 55%

[thin path]

cool but i want dlss, lets me stay above 100 frames for nice smooth feel

[hardy canopy]

It doesn't make it cool nor unique. That's just copium asf

[gaunt holly]

The fsp is iconic to the mk18

[unborn anchor]

well it's the only gun with the FSB, so it's by definition unique, and what's cool is subjective

[runic aspen]

update?

[jovial barn]

Would be better if we could choose to keep FSP or not, on most guns.

[hardy canopy]

ARWC is the only gun with a recoil bug which makes it unique too

[jovial barn]

Hotfix 1

[unborn anchor]

we have like 4 or 5 AR-15s in the game, one needs to have the FSB

[gaunt holly]

That'd require you to change the gas block. They don't have that feature in game

[craggy spade]

any patch note yet please ?

[unborn anchor]

how many AR-15s do we actually have?

[gaunt holly]

Several

[hardy canopy]

Depends on what counts

[unborn anchor]

DDM4, ARWC, MK18, SR-16

[unborn anchor]

well, AR-15 DI upper guns

[halcyon oar]

why doesnt the LSPD give their swat laser sights. are they stupid?

[hardy canopy]

416 is an AR-15 style rifle too

[jovial barn]

Check announcements.

[gaunt holly]

I'd still count the mcx and hk416

[unborn anchor]

not an ar-15 tho, it's a different system

[unborn anchor]

those are piston guns, so doesn't count

[pearl mesa]

last is from 2 days ago?

[hardy canopy]

The system isn't the only thing defining a rifle god damnit

[rare imp]

small performance patch

[craggy spade]

there's just updat 1 of the 17th not today

[gaunt holly]

You can still slap them onto any old ar15 lower and will still work

[rare imp]

probably just so minor its not worth patch noting

[unborn anchor]

doesn't make them AR-15s, but the argument is stupid

let's just say DI ar-15s so kids dont need to argue

[gaunt holly]

The answer: who cares

[jovial barn]

Oh shit thought it was today's

[unborn anchor]

are there others than the 4?

[rare imp]

tbh the method it works doesn't matter much for a game

if it looks and feels like an ar than it is an ar to most players

[unborn anchor]

yeah, I'm just thinking IRL and gun term wise

no one would call a 416 or MCX and AR-15 outside of videogames

[gaunt holly]

Ar15 style guns 🤓

[craggy spade]

416 is not HK416 ?

[hardy canopy]

It is

[unborn anchor]

I think it's obvious 416 is the hk416

[hardy canopy]

It's an AR-15 style rifle classified by the fucking ATF for example

[unborn anchor]

we don't need to say SIG MCX either

[unborn anchor]

the style being the key word there

[gaunt holly]

I just call them by their inches

[unborn anchor]

MCX is it's own rifle

[hardy canopy]

Not all DI systems are AR-15's

[unborn anchor]

ofc not, only the ones that are AR-15s that share the parts

you can't take 416 parts and put them in AR-15s

[gaunt holly]

20 incher or 18 incher or 14.5 inches and so forth

[unborn anchor]

AR-15s share the internal parts you can change between guns

like the BCG ect.

[stuck kernel]

2.6gb update?

[green tusk]

Performance patch

[hardy canopy]

You can't take parts from the BRN-180 upper and put it into an AR-18 either

[sharp kelp]

is the argument here that "all 5.56 guns are ar 15s" or am i not understanding the point

[unborn anchor]

yeah, it's so greatly modernized

[unborn anchor]

Indigo thinks all rifles with AR style controls are AR-15s

[hardy canopy]

Your argument makes no sense then

[gaunt holly]

Who cares lol. It's either DI or piston. Everything else are just semantics

[unborn anchor]

well it is cosmetics ingame, but not in reality

[hardy canopy]

Piston system on an AR-15 style rifle is just a modernized AR-15

[gaunt holly]

If we're talking about the game then there really is no argument

[unborn anchor]

it's really not tho, it's a whole different gun, you can ask anyone who knows anything about guns

[hardy canopy]

You literally make no sense to me

[unborn anchor]

real life isn't video games

[gaunt holly]

They are completely different operating systems

[unborn anchor]

I dunno why you are arguing about this, you can litterally just open google and see they are different

let's stop talking about this, it's stupid

[hardy canopy]

You have AR-15 style controls and it fits into any standard AR-15 lower. The operating system isn't the same but it's literally meant to be compatible with AR-15 externals

[unborn anchor]

but yeah, there's 4 AR-15s in the game rn

[trail surge]

can someone tell me whats new in ron because a 18gb update is diabolical

[unborn anchor]

everything you said here is true

[stuck kernel]

ive already updated my game when #announcements message or is it another one

[green tusk]

Another new one today

[unborn anchor]

many modern weapons are designed to be compatible with many AR-15 parts because the parts are already on the market

[jovial barn]

New DLC.

[little hawk]

Patch
Notes
PLZ

[trail surge]

but i dont have the dlc why do i need to download 18gb of it

[eternal tundra]

its part of the game, some stuff is free

like new guns for example

[unborn anchor]

because you can play the maps in multiplayer for free is someone else hosts

[jovial barn]

It's an update for the game that includes the DLC, whether you got it or not xD

[trail surge]

ah alright makes sense even tough i dont have friends with the dlc

fair enough thx

[unborn anchor]

also the AI behaviour changed

[jovial barn]

Try matchmaking if you want to play with others?

[unborn anchor]

it's much closer to swat 4 now

[jovial barn]

What has changed?

[unborn anchor]

they are more likely to give up now and they have new slow gun dropping animations for example

it's pretty cool

also they often give up mid firefight after being hit, which I "feel" happened very rarely before

but that's just my feel

[thin path]

its better for sure, still needs work, but better

[jovial barn]

Nice!

[thin path]

and yes they give up more often for sure

[unborn anchor]

they can also fake during the animation

[trail frost]

whats that new update? there aren't any patch notes atleast for me

[trail surge]

cant really know if they gave up or not if im dumping a mag into someone

[unborn anchor]

true true

[hardy canopy]

They will consistently cancel and shoot you if another suspect is firing at you or if you look away from them for too long during the animation

[jovial barn]

mr eman said it's a performance update.

[signal shuttle]

why does every update brick the game

[unborn anchor]

btw

https://www.guns.com/news/is-sig-sauer-mcx-ar-15?__cf_chl_rt_tk=JuXp13WqEVL5ngZ.Y4QqdKbKOruCcFBdpiD9qR9MdhY-1734641482-1.0.1.1-wEAwZGxerd3ZuH9h.YQBGa57j20jy_TY8ew7rvdwzEI

[hardy canopy]

Yeah i never argued for the MCX to be an AR-15

[unborn anchor]

how's the 416 different?

it takes a different handguard and internals just like the MCX

it's pretty equally a different gun as the 416

[runic aspen]

so the odd gpu utilization is still there,
before the patch/ patches performance was great but now it's kind of buggy at some stages

tried everything with settings and use no mods

[hardy canopy]

The standard ar-15 lower and buffer tube.. even tho it doesn't need one

[unborn anchor]

so is it the cosmetic buffer tube that suddently makes it an ar-15?

Or the lower that doesn't even do much of anything?

why does every single source on google say it's very clearly not an AR-15?

[grim wolf]

where are the report channel plz?

[unborn anchor]

#📩feedback-reports-channel

[grim wolf]

thx

cant send picture?

[hardy canopy]

The 416 also uses a standard AR-15 muzzle device

[floral edge]

why is the game updating

[unborn anchor]

the barrel threading doesn't make the gun anything? you can make a barrel for any 223/5.56 barrel to have the same threading

you can put any AR-15 muzzle device on the MCX too

as long as it's 5.56

you can put an ar-15 muzzle break on a .223 CZ bolt action

[minor mica]

updated ai and added dlc maps i believe

[grim wolf]

bruh i cant play

[floral edge]

oh cool

[hardy canopy]

Mcx has it's own tho. Look man. The 416 was literally designed with "they want an AR-15 but more reliable" mindset

[unborn anchor]

yes, AR-15 but

[floral edge]

humans will argue over the shape of a circle this is proof

[unborn anchor]

just because the gun takes some AR-15 parts doesn't make it one

you talk about AR-15s because the parts are interchangeable between guns. that's the reason we need names for different guns

[floral edge]

it takes the same fucking muzzle devices how fucking hard is that to grasp

[hardy canopy]

It has a different name, hk416

[unborn anchor]

yeah, it's pretty simple

[hardy canopy]

"AR-15 pattern rifle" is what the nerds always say

[viral badger]

AR-15 pattern :clueless:

[hardy canopy]

Mf has a becca pfp

[viral badger]

Mf has a becca pfp

[minor mica]

i love cyberpunk

[viral badger]

big fan

[minor mica]

i finished one phantom liberty ending today, tomorrow im probably gonna do my 4th playthrough 😭

[harsh edge]

UwU

[viral badger]

i have yet to finish phantom liberty

I reeally need to

[minor mica]

you really do

[hardy canopy]

Choose wisely

[runic aspen]

Hey, guess what y'all.

[minor mica]

its so good, plot twists are fuckin awesome

[hardy canopy]

Because if you don't, i'm coming for you

[mystic canopy]

was there an update just a few minutes ago or smthn

[runic aspen]

I was excused from jury duty today. Fuckin win.

[minor mica]

i did NOT expect to see this here heheh

[mystic canopy]

because mine just decided to make an update ig

[viral badger]

your name is familiar

[hardy canopy]

Yeah "performance fix" supposedly

[minor mica]

whats jury duty? isnt that where you have to go do judge stuff

[mystic canopy]

oh thank god lol

[unborn anchor]

yeah you become the RON judge for a week

[viral badger]

you have to go kick in doors of crackhouses

[mystic canopy]

flashlights are tanking my performance when usually i can run on max graphics easily

[harsh edge]

Plague doc uwu

[mystic canopy]

üwü

[minor mica]

i dont believe that

[runic aspen]

Yeah. Go to court house. Sit with like 11 other people, and determine if someone is guilty or not.

[viral badger]

lie and tell them youre a cop, too easy

[minor mica]

thought it was smth like that, thats kinda cool

[unborn anchor]

we really need the M4A1 back in the game

[hardy canopy]

Mmmyeah kinda. Jury is kinda there to make sure the punishment fits the crime, or if there is enough evidence for a sentence

[unborn anchor]

or m16

[mystic canopy]

is that your cat in the pfp?

[harsh edge]

Cats

[hardy canopy]

Can just mod that

There are plenty of 556 rifles so sacrifice

[harsh edge]

The black one passed a couple years ago at 17

[unborn anchor]

but then my friends dont see it 😦

[unborn anchor]

but the 80s vibes

[harsh edge]

The tiger stripe one is 9 or so picked up from the mill in town

[gaunt holly]

Not enough 556 rifles

[hardy canopy]

Tbh

[unborn anchor]

^

we are missing so many cool ones

[hardy canopy]

We need more than one 7.62x39 rifle

[minor mica]

ooh okay

[unborn anchor]

RD704

[gaunt holly]

Need more ar15 style rifles

[hardy canopy]

Even if it performs exactly like .300 in the game

[harsh edge]

This isn't what jury duty is for uwu

[mystic canopy]

"i swear we only need one more AR rifle it will fix everzthing"

[unborn anchor]

it's gonna be 9 MOA

[gaunt holly]

Pl0x no

[hardy canopy]

The fuck then

[viral badger]

we need 7.62x49R, you guys are thinking inside the box

[unborn anchor]

49?

[viral badger]

i too wish to blow a hole the size of a bowling ball inside someones chest

[mystic canopy]

we need 300 nitro express

[viral badger]

whatever its called I dont care enough to memorize russian calibers

[unborn anchor]

54

[mystic canopy]

just rip a hole throufgh the map

[runic aspen]

Yeah, you get paid a daily wage (slightly more than minimum.) But you sit in a box with 11 other people. Listen to everything, and then at the end you and the 11 of jurors go back and discuss everything and determine if the person was guilty or not.

[harsh edge]

A jury is there to act as a check and balance against the government to ensure the government authority is being carried out appropriately. A jury of your peers determines guilt or acquittal in a criminal jury trial

[gaunt holly]

Me want 18 incher. Me want 20 incher. 🐵

[floral edge]

41 minutes to patch it

[unborn anchor]

we need the RK62M3

[viral badger]

MORE 16 INCH RIFLES

[harsh edge]

You have a right to a fair, public and speedy trial, in most cases by a jury of your peers, in the jurisdiction which the crime you're accused of was committed

[gaunt holly]

More? There isn't even one lol

[unborn anchor]

🤓 firing squad

[hardy canopy]

Need more 10'5 inch barrels

[viral badger]

exactly

[boreal pelican]

Belgium.

[runic aspen]

Yeah, what Knight said.

[slow cedar]

guys till when is the sale on steam?

[boreal pelican]

it says

[unborn anchor]

do we have one map where you'd benefit from one? or do u just want it for cool factor

[gaunt holly]

16 has no cool factor tho

[harsh edge]

You're a cool factor @gaunt holly

[slow cedar]

where? if u know tell me

[gaunt holly]

[harsh edge]

OwO

[rare imp]

20 is where its at

[viral badger]

maps with long sightlines

[rare imp]

they should add an m16, but only the A2

[gaunt holly]

This tbh

[rare imp]

because my beloved a2

[hardy canopy]

Mmmyeah i'd rather have them make a functional LPVO

At least first

[viral badger]

That would be great

[unborn anchor]

do we have targets over 300-400m away?

isn't that kinda where a 16'' would start to make sense

[gaunt holly]

No, but that doesn't stop us from being cool

[boreal pelican]

literally on the price tag

[unborn anchor]

yeah, but that's not what I asked

I want m16 too

[gaunt holly]

16 has no real application other than complying with dumb laws

18 and 20 will see the biggest differences

[hardy canopy]

You can fit an extra flashbang into the butt stock

[viral badger]

no, but that doesnt really matter

[hardy canopy]

Wrong reply damnit

[gaunt holly]

Otherwise a 13.7 or 14.5 have negligible ballistic performance compared to a 16

[unborn anchor]

Ballistics aren't magic, 16'' barrels do give you extra velocity and extra terminal velocity at range

[gaunt holly]

It's science. And it's proven

[boreal pelican]

i would say it ends when the christmas sale/winter sale ends.

[unborn anchor]

look at the bullet velocity difference

[gaunt holly]

The difference you get from a 16 compared to a 13.7 or 14.5 are like 50fps

[unborn anchor]

a lot of special units run 16 in barrels for urban precision rifles

the difference isn't massive, but it's there

[minor mica]

its on sale now @slow cedar

[gaunt holly]

The 77gr bullets make the difference

[boreal pelican]

that wasnt what he was saying from what i am seeing

[minor mica]

oh sorry 😭

[hardy canopy]

I think they wanna know how long is it going to be on sale for

[obtuse totem]

why was there a update today

[hardy canopy]

@rigid bone when does the fucking ARWC get fixed

[viral badger]

the SR-16 is 16 inch no?

[gaunt holly]

I believe it's a 13.7ish

[boreal pelican]

i am guessing bug fixes, not sure.

[gaunt holly]

According to ron wiki

[viral badger]

i see

[unborn anchor]

I just realized

we don't have an AR-10 or LR308 in the game at all

big SR25

[hardy canopy]

But

Didn't you just say such guns are useless because we don't engage in such distances

[gaunt holly]

Been asking kaminsky for years

[unborn anchor]

yes, but it would be cool

Also 308 guns are great in ready or not RN, the 1 tap incaps are useful af

the short g3 thing is like my favourite gun in the game rn

[hardy canopy]

Yeah but... Please no more 308

We have 5 308 guns in the game damnit

The G3 and scar-h is like a very edge care of what i'd still consider like plausible

[uncut forum]

Wait this game has merchandise?! Oh hellll yea

[hardy canopy]

SR25 would shift more into DMR vibe than a battle rifle imo

[uncut forum]

I want more shotguns, if I can just interject peacefully lol

[hardy canopy]

Even tho it's like technically a battle rifle or whatever the fuck

[glad wing]

ayo what is this current update? there's not notice attached

[unborn anchor]

tbh the G3 is beyond possible

[hardy canopy]

Why you do this to me

Bully

[plucky dirge]

nerd

[unborn anchor]

I'd also love a carryhandle colt ar9

[tropic sentinel]

I have to know, why is it that every update seems to need to completely reinstall the game? Is it me? Did I do something wrong?

[hardy canopy]

Since we have so many HK's in the game

Wouldn't it make sense to just ass the fucking HK21

Also you better make an animation for the barrel switch

[unborn anchor]

welcome to unreal engine

you are gonna reinstall the game every update, load for a long time buuuut have cool lighting

[minor mica]

most modern games these days are minimum a 10gb update at any time, at least in my experiance

[tropic sentinel]

I mean, the loads aren't that bad, but I made sure there was space on my SSD for it XD

[crude lake]

New STALKER 2 update just dropped and is 110GB

[hardy canopy]

Meanwhile tf2 gets an update that's 26 fucking bytes

[wet beacon]

That’s actually fucking crazy. Bought RoN the other day. Now it’s $25

[minor mica]

💀

[floral edge]

damn

[red jay]

26 bytes, rewrites 30% of the codebase

[plucky dirge]

more than they fucking deserve

[hardy canopy]

Real

[wet beacon]

I figured it would be on sale soon. I just didn’t want to wait

[floral edge]

[red jay]

you can reach to to steam support and they'll usually refund the difference (or game) and you can rebuy

if it matters that much to you

[crude lake]

Always have this bookmarked:
https://prepareyourwallet.com/

[wet beacon]

Nah, already have too many hours

Got like 20 hours and I bought it 3-4 days ago

[red jay]

no they do it specifically for buying things before they go on sale

[wet beacon]

I see

[floral edge]

thats cool

[wet beacon]

$25. I’m not worried about it

[red jay]

(as long as you're not a frequent refunder etc)

[wet beacon]

I refunded squad for RoN lol

[hardy canopy]

You ever buy something into the fridge and then your siblings just go and fucking drink it

[unborn anchor]

squad is awesome

[red jay]

based

[wet beacon]

Squad wouldn’t fucken run on my laptop so

[plucky dirge]

i was gonna ask how didnyou embed that but i remembered ur a stinky ex mod

[crude lake]

Hey!

Ok yes, i smell a bit. Fair.

[floral edge]

[green tusk]

https://tenor.com/view/skill-issue-urge-resist-cat-gif-25536160

[floral edge]

[plucky dirge]

[halcyon oar]

idk if im trippin but i think that one mansion in the home invasion dlc is arefernece to a film

litrally called panic room too 🤔

[minor mica]

does void base maps off films/tv?

but i mean, isnt the college map also similar to a real life situation..?

[halcyon oar]

🤷‍♂️

maybe not based off but just referenced

[signal geyser]

what's this new update

[hardy canopy]

I believe Neon Tomb takes inspiration from the Orlando nightclub shooting

[signal geyser]

dropped a 2 gig update with 0 patch notes

[hardy canopy]

Whatever the club was called idk

[ocean oxide]

I Got told Sale will drop today

[torn lantern]

Pulse night club

[halcyon oar]

sale is live i think

[minor mica]

i would look that up, but since ive recently googled about gun laws out of curiosity im not gonna risk it

[ocean oxide]

Yall fooled me💔

[halcyon oar]

no bro

[hardy canopy]

[halcyon oar]

50% sale rn

[ocean oxide]

[ocean oxide]

No way

Im Missing 4 buxks but all Stores are closed rn

[rare imp]

[hardy canopy]

The setting, situation, motive. Also the pretty high casualty count. About 50 people lost their lives

Like yeah there is probably a thousand bodies in neon but...

[halcyon oar]

neon got more atmosphere than relapse i think 🤔

[minor mica]

im not gonna risk an actual real life ready or not encounter because i was curious about a map lol, england gun laws are very strict and i dont wanna have to think that im on a watchlist 💀

[hardy canopy]

I've googled quite a lot of funny things

[plucky dirge]

with the shit i search up im already on a few fucking watch lists and im fine

[minor mica]

ah

[hardy canopy]

The people you talk to should already put you on a list

[minor mica]

its more cus ive had police knock on my door before for stupid shit that i havent even done lmao, and that was scary enough

[plucky dirge]

did you put me on one

[halcyon oar]

just use incognito smh 😼

[hardy canopy]

Yeah

[minor mica]

😛

[hardy canopy]

The amount of times i've helped people S tier port, i should be given a medal

[minor mica]

how do you even s tier a map

[plucky dirge]

[minor mica]

ive got all the objectives before but it was only A or A+, never S

[plucky dirge]

[hardy canopy]

You need to arrest all suspects alive

[unborn anchor]

[hardy canopy]

Fisa shit or whatever

[minor mica]

accurate, its cus like a day ago i was curious about gun laws across europe so i just went on wikipedia for a while, so if i start looking up other events related to shooting it just might look weird

[hardy canopy]

Worse than china

[minor mica]

thought so

[plucky dirge]

nahh

but something like russia yes

[hardy canopy]

I was playing with randoms today and we did 23mbs on S tier by accident on a lethal run

[minor mica]

youd think, the police here are just incompetent tbh. once had 4 officers at my door to arrest someone who lived in the other apartment block

you know how they got the address to arrest this person? they asked them.

they asked the person they were going to arrest, for the address to come back and arrest them.

you cant even make this shit up 😭

[hardy canopy]

I keep saying that UK suffers from the same fundamental problem the US does and everyday it seems like that is true

That problem being a dumbass population

Sorry not sorry. Outliers exist tho

[minor mica]

to make it worse they threatened me simply for looking through the peep-hole (thing in the door to see whos outside) without reason

[plucky dirge]

having dumb people doesn't mean you should break human rights and turn into a tyranny lol

[minor mica]

they are pretty dumb

plan to leave as soon as possible i hate this place lmao

[halcyon oar]

jorjorwel

[hardy canopy]

Where to

[plucky dirge]

but no more politics! we do not want any of the stinky mods to show up do we!!!

[minor mica]

not decided, but probably central europe

[hardy canopy]

Luxemburg

[minor mica]

is that political? 😭

[hardy canopy]

Yes

[minor mica]

was more thinking poland, netherlands

[plucky dirge]

talking about surveillance and tyranny yes

but you saying that you want to leave a shit hole like britain is okay

[floral edge]

my steam install has finished but its stuck on 0% 😭

[minor mica]

[minor mica]

isnt krakow really rich?

[hardy canopy]

Buy a new pc

[floral edge]

i wish

[halcyon oar]

its a steam bug silly

[hardy canopy]

There is a reason most CS tournaments hosted in Poland were in Krakow

[plucky dirge]

not really, poland in an of itself is pretty mid especially for living

[floral edge]

i know 😭

[hardy canopy]

Virtus Pro fell off because of one mercedez benz

Imagine

[plucky dirge]

i'm biased but i would recommend czechia or slovakia... probably one of the more free countries and with a higher standard of living in europe

[hardy canopy]

Go to sweden if you wanna join a street gang, finland if you wanna get discriminated against and norway if you wanna feel super poor

[plucky dirge]

if you get a good degree like in college or some shit you're set

[minor mica]

im considering netherlands since how close it is to the uk, and other western countries. but having a car there is expensive

[halcyon oar]

evil swedish people: we will give our guests food

[barren obsidian]

my game is updating did they make a steath update bc i dont see anything about it

[minor mica]

[hardy canopy]

Don't really know that much about that place

[regal notch]

Question

[halcyon oar]

wonder if judge was fired after port hokan or something tho 🤔

[minor mica]

its just expensive

[regal notch]

I can't find any servers whatsoever

[halcyon oar]

fisa encounter and allat

[hardy canopy]

Other than the fact that they like money

[regal notch]

For multiplayer

[plucky dirge]

it's expensive but when a janitor has 5x the pay an electrician has here then i'd say its worth lmfao

[halcyon oar]

Have you clicked find public lobby 🤔

[regal notch]

Yes lol

[minor mica]

could move to ireland

[hardy canopy]

Kam told me not to tell anyone but in next dlc one of the VIP suspects of Judge going rogue

[minor mica]

im in the process of tryna get an irish passport, so it could be an option, but then again i would have the whole eu

[halcyon oar]

no way we're getting jury next dlc

[plucky dirge]

holy shit really

[regal notch]

It just says "couldn't ping appropriate server" or singing like that

[plucky dirge]

i thought i'd be the first one kam would tell

damn you

[hardy canopy]

Kam hates you

[halcyon oar]

idk ngl

[plucky dirge]

no he does not

[halcyon oar]

try restarting t game

[hardy canopy]

:(

[plucky dirge]

y tf are you sad you're trying to gaslight me rn

[regal notch]

Okay just thought Id ask, I can host, but I know no one that plays so

Thanks tho

[halcyon oar]

what missione

[hardy canopy]

I'm sad so that you'd feel empathy which makes you easier to gaslight

Stupid...

[plucky dirge]

i have no empathy

[hardy canopy]

I have no empathy

[halcyon oar]

why so serious

[plucky dirge]

fuck you

[hardy canopy]

[glass mulch]

[timid marten]

[glass mulch]

How goes it?

🙂

[hardy canopy]

High traffic rn, calm down

[halcyon oar]

why so serious

[plucky dirge]

bro said high traffic

[floral edge]

its stuck on "starting download"

[plucky dirge]

where's the fucking cars

[halcyon oar]

Have you tried starting through desktop 🤔

[glass mulch]

^ this, winter sale just started

[floral edge]

yeah and i forced shut down my pc

[floral edge]

real

[halcyon oar]

unplug plugb ack lan cable 🤔

[floral edge]

im on a usb internet chip

and i tried it

[halcyon oar]

plug in another port 🤔

[floral edge]

there is no spare ports 😭

everything else is plugged in

ill just wait

[halcyon oar]

plug in backplate 🤔

[floral edge]

trust me there are no spare slots in it

[halcyon oar]

dude what

the flip man

[hardy canopy]

A fucking yikes

[floral edge]

its a dell optiplex 3030

im using the internal usb for my gpu

(its cursed i know)

[halcyon oar]

!? the pc is built in the monitor!?

[plucky dirge]

tempted to buy il2 sturmovik dlcs

[floral edge]

yeah its a all in one

[halcyon oar]

why so cool

[glass mulch]

To a degree

[floral edge]

its not cool its so fucking underpowered

[halcyon oar]

open it up and upgrade

[floral edge]

the cpu is soldered in

[halcyon oar]

😼

[floral edge]

ive tried

16 gigs ram max

[hardy canopy]

Avg optiplex

[glass mulch]

Pcs like that cant really be upgraded. Think its more of a office pc

[floral edge]

its supposed to be

luckily i got my 1660 super in it

[hardy canopy]

The cpu is soldered in cause it's cheaper. Also if you were to drop in a power hungry chip the VRM would probably kill itself

[glass mulch]

The whole mobo would go

[halcyon oar]

what if u completely replaced the mobo

[placid nexus]

is there a post on this new 2.6gb update yet or no?

[halcyon oar]

corpses frown now

[floral edge]

idk its taking 4 hours tho

[glass mulch]

Its performance stuff

[placid nexus]

i mean that's good at least

was hoping it'd be the laser + light functionality update

[pliant briar]

ost being in the bundle is truly a ron moment

[halcyon oar]

who needs lasrs... sigmas use light

use intuition to land the bullet

[hardy canopy]

The one it uses has a proprietary pcb. You'd have to get a different case and a psu, at which point it's no longer an optiplex at all

[halcyon oar]

ship of theseus

[fluid hare]

[floral edge]

well i have a second monitor a external psu for the gpu

sooo it aint really a aio its a fucked up tower

[halcyon oar]

!?!??!? external psu what!!

u just got it sitting on your desk or something

[floral edge]

yep it poweres the gpu

[hardy canopy]

Yeah, pretty normal

[floral edge]

its on the desk behind my monitor

[halcyon oar]

Wow....

[versed abyss]

Ive got one behind behind my pc tbf

[floral edge]

i said it was cursed

[harsh edge]

Sweet liberty my LEG

[halcyon oar]

can u power a pc with car battery 🤔

[versed abyss]

yes

technically

[halcyon oar]

must experimne.t...

[pliant briar]

no, you can't

[floral edge]

why did they push a update today 😭

[hardy canopy]

No

[halcyon oar]

!?!?

[versed abyss]

this update is still going ong im gonna have to smoke now

[pliant briar]

psu requires AC, car battery is DC

[halcyon oar]

ac....dc....!?!?

No way

[pliant briar]

yeah, that rock band

[untold spear]

GUYS

[plucky dirge]

@hardy canopy answer my fucking dm asshole

[versed abyss]

oh mine is at 50% in 5 mins

[floral edge]

i love RoN im Happy that i Bought it back in 2022 and forced my friend to buy it in 2023 i wish you all the best in Life

[versed abyss]

362mbps

[floral edge]

normally ot wouldve

[hardy canopy]

You'd just need some proprietary shit to regulate the DC from the battery. Probably not enough for standard parts tho as i imagine the 12V rail wouldn't be enough

[versed abyss]

i got the best wifi i could get in my area so i couldnt have any issues

[floral edge]

can everyone in the world stop downloading please thank you and godbless

[halcyon oar]

[little hawk]

Stealing your mums OF hard drive is crazy....

[halcyon oar]

latest dlc ws set on an oil rig occupied by ecoterrorists

[hardy canopy]

HANDS UP THIS IS LSPD!!!!

[floral edge]

1 hour pleas god

[halcyon oar]

toc this entry team why my game not downlodin

[floral edge]

"put the fucking gun down"

[plucky dirge]

pants DOWN

[hardy canopy]

Okay officer

[halcyon oar]

dude downloadin the update from mindjot servers or something

[glacial wind]

why does my game keep redownloading the game when it updates

[floral edge]

[glacial wind]

going to snap

[floral edge]

real

[glacial wind]

twice in two days it has done this

I just want to play

[halcyon oar]

wdym redownloading th entire game

[glacial wind]

yes

[tender osprey]

Guys if my officer resigned from duty can i doo a hermit achievement?

[glacial wind]

2gb update somehow wants me to download a full 60

[halcyon oar]

thats just whatit shows

no lie

[glacial wind]

its been downloading for an hour

[green tusk]

The download portion is separate from the patching of files

[halcyon oar]

mindjot

[green tusk]

You are not redownloading 60GB

[glacial wind]

well I waited three hours yesterday and im on one hour today lol

maybe my files are fucked

[chilly fern]

It does that every update it's going through files and making them compatible

[pliant briar]

if you look (or read) closely you'll notice it's not actually downloading 60GB, it's only referring to the total size of file operations needed to complete

[vagrant veldt]

nah it doesnt

[lavish flint]

agreed

[chilly fern]

It does it sifts through your files and updates them it's literally what it's doing

[lavish flint]

no

[glacial wind]

Like I know it usually ISNT downloading anything, just patching the 60gb of files and that takes a few mins, but for how long they are taking I am beginning to think otherwise

[pliant briar]

task manager can literally prove you wrong right now

[floral edge]

i might just go join a SWAT team and retired before this has downloaded

[lavish flint]

exactly... you are maturing

realising the reality of the situation

[glacial wind]

die haha

[chilly fern]

When Steam appears to update an entire game on PC, it's usually not actually downloading the whole game again, but rather applying a patch that involves unpacking and repacking game files, which can make it look like a full download because the update process needs to access all the game data to make changes, even if only a small portion of the files are being modified; this is due to how game developers package their files, often using large compressed archives that need to be fully unpacked to apply patches effectively.

[glacial wind]

but yea no I just dont get why its taking so long

[chilly fern]

From google

[glacial wind]

yesterday was I think 6 gb and still took HOURS

[pliant briar]

literally hardware issue

[hardy canopy]

Slow ass internet

[tidal jungle]

i think it takes a while cus of how large the game is

[thin moth]

Will there be a sale for dark waters?

[tidal jungle]

patching these large games is quite demanding on your disk

[lavish flint]

first of all, this is wrong. When steam is 'appearing to update an entire game', it actually is. What does steam have to hide? Nothing,

[glacial wind]

Id agree but i just downloaded hunt showdown in a hour, I think my files maybe fucked up

ready or not does that for me sometimes lol

[hardy canopy]

Patching files can be limited by your drive or cpu as well

[pliant briar]

bro thinks steam mines bitcoin instead of patching the game

[halcyon oar]

its gonna be so over if all these criminals break out of whatvrer prison los suenos has

[glacial wind]

yea thatd do it

[tidal jungle]

yep, and other tasks you are doing in the background

[hardy canopy]

Bet you have an A400

[pliant briar]

nvme drives got so cheap and yet here we are

[tidal jungle]

lol yep

[hardy canopy]

People stuck on legacy platforms might not even have more than 1 slot

If any...

[glacial wind]

amd ryzan 5 3600 6 core

[pliant briar]

realistically not a lot people with that old platforms can even run ready or not

[glacial wind]

cant remember if thats good or not but i really need a new one

[halcyon oar]

is it ready or not...!?

[glacial wind]

IT IS NOT

[tidal jungle]

i mean if you are on desktop its a pretty decent processor

[pliant briar]

its pretty bad for ready or not unfortunately

[tidal jungle]

ive not been in the pc market for a while but i think the 5600x is a good upgrade for that faamily of cpus

[glacial wind]

much like star citzen, just built different and needs a pc to match lol

[vagrant veldt]

bro i got a r5 1600 and its playable

[tidal jungle]

damn, i hope mine can handle the game lol

[glacial wind]

yea no my games fine to play, just downloading its files always gets weird on my pc

[pliant briar]

it will, it's just not ideal with how heavy the game is cpu wise

[hardy canopy]

5600 would be alright but, 5700x3d tbh if you don't wanna hop on a new platform

[floral edge]

look at mine in my bio it plays pretty well

[tidal jungle]

oh yea i forgot the about the am4 x3d chips

[pliant briar]

can't be right with that decade old cpu

[tidal jungle]

they are so cheap now

[floral edge]

i get 80 fps on the gas station

[halcyon oar]

i get 960

[tidal jungle]

oh alright then i guess my laptop will survive (hopefully)

[frail vortex]

So...do we have patchnotes for the update?

[fleet light]

are there any french people??

[pliant briar]

who?

[floral edge]

the french arnet real

[vague kindle]

French people don't really exist.

[tidal jungle]

french people exist?

[slow ginkgo]

what’s in the 2 gb patch?

[vague kindle]

Files.

[pliant briar]

bytes

[tidal jungle]

byte

[thin moth]

Byte

[strong kite]

I'm wondering this too

[green tusk]

Performance patch

[tender osprey]

Guys if my officer resigned from duty can i doo a hermit achievement?

[strong kite]

Yippie!

[floral edge]

real

[strong kite]

dw I saw your message. You make an interesting point

lol

[waxen latch]

we all agreed to the rules, it is what it is. Want to talk about it or laugh about it go elsewhere

its not that deep

[green tusk]

You may want to message TOC if you have a moderation related concern

[waxen latch]

bait

[pliant briar]

ron mods are literally anything but "pro-ceo"

[thin moth]

Is it possible I can be the next TOC voice? Is there a process or something like this?

[waxen latch]

hes been here for a week

ofc he doesnt know anyone here

[blazing quiver]

Is it just me or twisted nerve bugging out? we have the thing to highlight dropped weapons ,etc

but we can't get S, and we double checked everything 5 times

It says we forgot 3 weapons each time

[pliant briar]

that might sound crazy but ron has guns and people talk about it

[waxen latch]

you could technically mod it in... in your own game files

[thin moth]

Yeah. But I always thought of doing something related to voice acting. Thanks for the idea!

[green tusk]

Stop discussing moderation matters

Message @long summit if you want to discuss it

[pliant briar]

i mean if mod tells you to stop you stop, i speak from experience

[viral badger]

RON cord member posts worst bait of all time, asked to guard Amos Voll

[floral edge]

real ive been banned from here before

[pearl parcel]

I don't understand what this guy is trying to achieve

[floral edge]

nice to see much aint changed

[viral badger]

👽

[light moss]

You're not just trying to find out the rules, if you were you'd message TOC instead of putting on a show

[pearl parcel]

what will that serve you it's a discord server for a game it is literally not that deep

[pearl parcel]

^

[viral badger]

joined back aftere six months and this place hasnt changed at ALL, i love you ready or not discord

[glass mulch]

. @wise scroll see previous instruction for moderational concerns

[pearl parcel]

thats a bs reason but you should be discussing that with TOC not arguing with the mods

[waxen latch]

what they said above

[green tusk]

Alright Chat, let us take a walk

[thin moth]

I like walks

[pliant briar]

why would i take a walk at 00:08

[floral edge]

i prefer to chase but okay

[glass mulch]

Can it be a nice forest hike?

[floral edge]

i mean chase skinwalkers

[pearl parcel]

live in the wrong timezone smh

[light moss]

You cant sprint in RoN so might as well walk

[pliant briar]

(for some reason it's day until winter and it's 8C right now, at night)

[past zinc]

The game got another update, do you guys know what was done?

[pearl parcel]

true

[floral edge]

ask god only he can help you 🙏

[livid depot]

me defending the compound (my house) from the skinwalkers (girl scouts) with my sacred tool to eradicate sin (m249) after they asked me if i want to be sold cookies (crack)

[glass mulch]

O.o those things are not to be trifled with

[waxen latch]

likely small performance stuff, not confirmed

[past zinc]

Really? lol

[floral edge]

so relatable

[livid depot]

they mid as fuck

[floral edge]

god can always help, idk i dont know what happened

[livid depot]

what are they gonna do take my skin for a walk?

[past zinc]

Agreed

[floral edge]

just be the aggressor nothing to be scared of then

[glass mulch]

I see what you did there

[jovial barn]

The loadout bug still not totally fixed. Sometimes it gets jumbled when you change Swat AI weapon attachments 😦

[livid depot]

the new mp5 has like 0 recoil full auto

its weak semi so full is the only viable option if u dont wanna die

[pliant briar]

the only option is not using smgs

[sudden sphinx]

I'm trying to download an update for RoN from Steam and it errored out saying "missing files"

[pliant briar]

verify game files

[sudden sphinx]

You can't verify the game files of an incoming update.

[upper nebula]

now that controller support is out, will there be any news of this game being released to console in the future?

[glass mulch]

Too early to tell atm

[upper nebula]

alr, that would be sick.

i can see it happening but who knows

[glass mulch]

We shall see what the future holds

[upper nebula]

[pliant briar]

verifying game files =/= verifying update files (patches)

[sudden sphinx]

Its restarted and finished

[pearl parcel]

did void announce when the next bundle of merch is dropping?

[harsh edge]

I didn't wanna shoot that man, but he heard that I was fast 😔

[glass mulch]

#announcements @pearl parcel

[jagged sand]

is it me or is there a update everyday

[pliant briar]

just you

[jagged sand]

like i updated it yesterday

now its making me update again

[uneven basin]

You haven't tried it with iron sights

[rigid bone]

Alright y'all

Let's see those replays

[glass mulch]

😮

[rigid bone]

https://s.team/y24/vgdgkc?l=english

[gaunt wraith]

its 3 gigabyte updates everyday wtf are the devs smoking dude

[waxen latch]

Nothing new

[jagged sand]

THATS WHAT IM SAYING

theres nothing added and its still updating

[gaunt wraith]

they not even adding anything 💀

[jagged sand]

for no reason

[uneven basin]

Voice lines?

[glass mulch]

Its performance fixes

[jagged sand]

i see

i mean i still get like 180fps max graphics

the dark water maps are so good

[distant spire]

you have performance issues

[gaunt wraith]

they not fixing shit

shit were probably getting a new crypto miner installed every 4 days through this game 😭

[glass mulch]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[uneven basin]

"The game is broken"
Updates the game
"Why are they patching it!?"

[pliant briar]

this game has like 3 updates per year smh

[gaunt wraith]

when one of them is 20gb thats still not great

[pliant briar]

welcome to unreal engine

[rigid bone]

[uneven basin]

Oh boo hoo

[rigid bone]

STALKERs was just 120gb

Just about the entire game

Big updates are usually very, very good things

[gaunt wraith]

id rather download 120gb once than 120 through useless patches everytime you wan to play

[uneven basin]

I'll take the patches if he's not eating em

[pliant briar]

believe it or not you can disable automatic updates

[rigid bone]

I mean, we could just not

also what Niv said

[gaunt wraith]

you cant play without them genius

[gleaming belfry]

Another update? What does this update fix/introduce?

[pliant briar]

of course you can

[gaunt wraith]

holy shit yall stop sucking off void 😭

[rigid bone]

Just some general performance stuff

[gaunt wraith]

oh nvm that guy is void

[rigid bone]

You're not gonna get punished for being critical about what we do

[pliant briar]

exactly, he's void and therefore doesn't exist

[rigid bone]

Just don't be a dick about it to others

[vague kindle]

Suggestion for next patch: The game deletes itself if you install a weeb mod.

[pliant briar]

if you own supporter edition*

[gleaming belfry]

Like what? I'd like to know since I'm interested in the games update history.

[gaunt wraith]

but dawg my wifi is ass and i waited 5h for an update yesterday. 20gb yesterday. And now i think i can play cuz the update is done but i get slapped in the face with another one 😭

[vague kindle]

This is the downside of unreal. Small patches don’t exist.

[pliant briar]

don't use wifi and don't update if you want to play the game right now. pretty simple

[vague kindle]

That being said, 48% compression is awesome and I love unreal.

[gleaming belfry]

All compression is awesome 😛

[gaunt wraith]

i use lan but its not better so just misspoke

[vague kindle]

Unreal compression is insanely good.

[uneven basin]

I think he meant play offline? Not sure

[gleaming belfry]

Do you know what implementation they're using?

[pliant briar]

are you referring to me?

[vague kindle]

No clue, but even when I’m editing my 6GB mod, it compresses it down to like 3gb.

[gleaming belfry]

ZPAQ compression is insane and what I use for general purpose.

[vague kindle]

Never took the time to see how or what it’s done. Creating the .pak file, it condenses down to like 48% or so. It’s wild.

[gleaming belfry]

I wouldn't be surprised if it's lzss.

[vague kindle]

But this is the downside too. You make one change, and you need a whole new pack file.

Hence the downloads for patches.

[uneven basin]

Yes sry

[gleaming belfry]

That's why I love ZPAQ. It's an append only archiver with deduplication 😄

[pliant briar]

no, i meant don't use WiFi literally. it's an inferior way to connect to the router

[gleaming belfry]

Also cool thing is ZSTD is now used in browser compression.

[vague kindle]

🤷‍♂️
This is just how unreal works. It directly reads PAK files. It’s their proprietary system.

But it gets wonky, because even an icon has the asset, another linking file, and a bit of code which appends the file, for a single image.

[gleaming belfry]

I feel you. I've parsed a file format and needed to use lzss on certain data.

[gaunt wraith]

i use lan

but my lan is worse than wifi for some reason

[rigid bone]

Could genuinely be a bad cable

Do you know what CAT it is?

[gaunt wraith]

a pet?

[vague kindle]

I’ve worked in the gaming industry for 20 years, and I do my absolute best to avoid coding.

[jovial barn]

[rigid bone]

I've only been in for 3, but same

[gaunt wraith]

what do you do

[rigid bone]

CAT rating determines the specifications of a cable. The most generically acceptable high-speed consumer cable is CAT 7

most 'old' Ethernet cable is Cat 3-4

[gaunt wraith]

idk

mine is really old i think

[vague kindle]

Fun story… I was going over my resume.. Some of the original marketing for Farm Simulator, Truck Simulator, and Bus Simulator I made. 😂

[rigid bone]

It says it right on the cable too

[gleaming belfry]

@rigid bone I know this question is asked a lot but how's the performance updates in development? I've been playing for a long time now and UE5 really sliced my fps in every map in half basically. Before I was doing 80+ no problem. Maybe just sucky CPU?

[gaunt wraith]

like 15 years old idk

i can check

[gaunt holly]

It's prob 3 or 4 if you didn't buy it in recent years

[rigid bone]

Specifically Community Management, Marketing, and Content Creator Relations

[tidal jungle]

really?

[gaunt holly]

Do you have an IG or YouTube?

[tidal jungle]

neat

[gleaming belfry]

Yup

[pliant briar]

CAT 7? pretty weird. 90% of the cables used right now would be cat 5e

[gaunt wraith]

its CAT.5E or CAT.SE idk something like that

[gaunt holly]

Fancy

[gleaming belfry]

Only CAT I know is CAT6. Anyone know where this is from?

[vague kindle]

Apparently some of my old promos are still sitting on steam. It’s cringe asf to see my old promo videos for shit like a subway simulation 😂

[pliant briar]

cat 5e is 1Gb/s worst case scenario

[gaunt wraith]

i get 120kb/s wdym lmao

[rigid bone]

I did say high-speed cable for that very reason

[pliant briar]

1Gb/s is high speed though

[rigid bone]

CAT 5 is what's out and about mostly because it was a standard for a very, very long time

[waxen latch]

[gaunt wraith]

damn that must suck

my bad

[rigid bone]

but most should be CAT 6 for the better shielding at minimum or CAT 7 to better utilize fiber if the home has it

[pliant briar]

anything over 1 Gb/s is only really needed for future proofing/extra shielding (byproduct of higher spec cables)/you actually have more than 1Gbps downlink

[rigid bone]

The only downside, which I don't mind because I live in the middle of nowhere, is that it's more or less a 24/7 job because timezones exist

[jovial barn]

Mine is CAT6E

[vague kindle]

Your job is 24/7 because idiots exist. 😉

And marketing.

Marketing doesn’t seem to understand timezones.
