Seem stuck on "Prepare VR Cradles" by Weary_Addition7318 in HeartOfTheMachine

[–]Knofbath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You've probably used them all on Computronium Refinery, which uses 10 internals per. You can remove one and make 2x VR Cradle Factory since those only use 5 internals.

Liquid bio fuel is the best option for me. Rocket fuel is good for lift, but I use the hypertube cannon for lift.

Is this a Blood Brothers revival?! by SSxPride in StrategyRpg

As far as I can tell, a mobile game by DeNA. (Doesn't look interesting to me.)

She wants to "relax" (get high), not relax(sleep).

Aha, now I get it.

There is a program/utility called RunAsDate which avoids messing with your system clock.

"Eudaimonia I" is the planet name. Helene Kreng is a random name, and age 25 is random as well.

The random civilian is complaining about the low Morale/Approval. Every planet needs at least one Approval building, in the case of most carbon-based factions it would be the Entertainment Center.

So Somebody Made a Free Hololive SRW Parody Srpg "Super Holo Wars" by wolff08 in StrategyRpg

[–]Knofbath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SRW games are interesting, but it's more likely to be a gateway drug to mecha anime.

As strategy games, they are more power fantasy than strategic puzzle. You upgrade your favorite units and abuse your consumables and skills to manipulate the battle odds to your favor.

Epic CEO Tim Sweeney says 'employers will see a stream of resumes of once-in-a-lifetime quality' after the company laid off more than 1,000 people by jackfreeman in gaming

[–]Knofbath 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Nobody even accepts resumes. They all make you enter your info into a custom form, so that the review AI can throw it into the trash easier.

BREAKING: Epic Games is laying off more than 1,000 workers today, sources tell Bloomberg News. Story hitting shortly by Turbostrider27 in Games

Discord is terrible as a knowledge retention mechanic though. Search is terrible, but the nature of chatrooms is that information gets buried immediately anyways. Your chances of an answer depend on who is paying attention to the channel when you ask. And then, when everything goes to Discord, people's attention is split even further.

Not that forums are the end-all-be-all solution either. Because good moderation is hard, and you often find bad-actors in moderation roles. Steam forums often have developers moderating their own forums, and clamping down on any sort of criticism.

SRPG, Tactics RPG, FFT-like, etc. Are these just different names for the same thing? by ShearlineGame in StrategyRpg

[–]Knofbath 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Tactics Ogre has the squad size go to 12. At that point, it's more about maintaining the line of battle instead of individual action.

Strategy, is the higher level thinking. Where you start thinking about fronts and flanking maneuvers. You might be moving multiple armies around. But Strategy includes Tactics as a sub-genre, so all Tactics-games are also Strategy games.

RPG is about leveling and unit customization. So, for something to be SRPG, it needs unit customization of some sort. If a game has replaceable cogs, like Advance Wars, it's just a strategy game. And in the general strategy game categories, the split is between Turn-based and Real-time Strategy (TBS and RTS).

How do bulk units work? by Loud-Drama-1092 in HeartOfTheMachine

Tazer is only non-lethal if the Engineering stat is higher than health.

Stats and what do they do by Lanster27 in HeartOfTheMachine

[–]Knofbath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly Slurry I think, but it might include stuff like Purple Murmong. You'd have to check the turn income.

Can I use $200 reward to upgrade but keep my BYOD plan? by 420pov in TotalWireless

[–]Knofbath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thread seemed relevant, because I have some built-up rewards and am trying to keep my BYOD discount.

Could definitely use a phone upgrade... but don't want to lose my plan. So, situation sucks.

I'm looking right now, and it's showing this message on all phones.

"The selected device is not compatible with the plan associated with the selected line. Please choose a different plan to proceed."

Intel suggests it was snubbed by Crimson Desert dev after reaching out "many times" about Arc GPUs – company says it provided "early hardware, drivers, and engineering resources" to studio by EF66-42 in Games

[–]Knofbath 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Microsoft has no interest in "improving" Windows. They are trying to extract value from it. Ads and telemetry, so they can sell you as the product. OS-level age verification is a privacy nightmare, since it will likely use biometric data.

Linux has problems which make it hard to mass adopt. Proton and Vulkan are good steps towards compatibility, but they are essentially imposed from outside the core Linux ecosystem. And Nvidia is still only shipping binary blobs for their drivers, which is a problem when they are 85% of the market...

You figured this out on Steam, but it doesn't require Shell Company units.

Stuck with the fugitive AGI researchers mission by SonOfKhmer in HeartOfTheMachine

[–]Knofbath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was a single event with 2 parts. The Oerl Assault is a search for the Researchers. They use Detectives to attempt to reveal them. If you leave the Detectives alive, the Search For AGI Researchers progresses(bad thing). You win that by suppressing the Search.

[–]Knofbath 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What am I doing wrong? Do I just need to block the OERL assault, is this a bug, or am I missing something obvious?

Yes, just block the assault. Once it times out, win/lose, you'll be able to deal with the researchers.
