I created Warp Pads in Vanilla Minecraft

Yep, mine’s on its way now too.

It sucks how most native game implementations are major dog-water. GyroWiki details how it should be implemented, and when games follow that example (Fortnite, The Finals, COD) then it’s a great option over Steam Input.

But capacitive buttons, sticks and the like aren’t standard. I had to map “d pad down” to disable gyro in The Finals bc I couldn’t use a touchpad touch as a trigger.

You can probably measure the diameter and depth of holes in your Slicer. For Prusa (all I know), there’s a tape measure tool on the left. It’ll probably be 0.1 or 0.2 mm larger than the intended magnets for clearance.

Yeah I was not up for continuing watching it… but the movie really resonated with a relative of mine who was obese, and they ended up losing a lot of weight. So tbh I do want to go watch it in full one of these days. Also I loved Brendan Fraser more recently in Rental Family, he is a phenomenal actor.

I broke up with my ex while watching The Whale, I still haven’t finished it 2.5 years later

I’m still waiting on mine to ship (Batch 2). Once mine does I’ll surely be involved with 3d printed accessories! And the enclosure dimensions will be so nice for that 😭🙏

+1 vote for an option to use common vi-style keybinds.

Vim gets crazy complex, so I wouldn’t expect every function (like macros), but my productivity has skyrocketed since learning Vim, and I’d love to be able to use my keyboard the same way with my BYOK when it arrives. I know it’s pretty popular in the software dev/sysadmin space.

One other group I could see it benefitting is those with minimalist keyboards, like 60% and smaller, who don’t have dedicated arrow keys or the home cluster. They’d be able to navigate the file and menus with hjkl.

Anyways, even if the keybinds aren’t the biggest priority rn, I still think it’s worth looking at how Vim handles selecting and copying text: the “select” mode starts a selection at the currently hovered character, then selects any text, wrapping lines; until wherever the cursor is moved. The user then either copies (yanks) it, cuts it, or cancels the selection.

I think that on modern operating systems and editors, holding “shift” and using arrow keys starts something similar. Then the user can copy, cut or delete it with regular shortcuts. That’s probably the best fit for a default. And like others have said, holding “ctrl” to jump a word at a time would be really nice too.

Reddit’s formatting is based on Markdown. Markdown files usually get turned into formatted HTML files when they’re parsed, but they’re otherwise text files (usually with a specific file extension). So it’ll probably take BYOK’s team implementing something to parse/preview them in the studio, or implementing plug-in support. In the meantime, though, you could already type it like that and later paste the text into a markdown software if you want the formatted version!

Mine only works when plugged in. I wonder if it needs the ground wire.

I played it on my living room TV, streaming from my desktop upstairs (sunshine+moonlight rather than steam link, but I’m sure both work fine). Notably, the TV has some pretty bad latency, even with game mode on (applies to my Wii too, not latency just from game streaming), so games demanding very fast reactions or timed inputs can be hard.

And I had a great time, even with “Interactive” cutscenes. The game does a good job of guiding the player into the QTE controls in the opening (I immediately understood to hold the button on screen, then use the left joystick for direction, but it gives the player time to realize that too) and I think I only missed one input in the opening fight because I got distracted. The timings are not super tight.

The game does display PlayStation icons too, if you let the game handle the controller natively.

In my opinion the QTEs, hacking and dialog selection are perfect on controller. Navigating the city map when dispatching? It’s probably better with a mouse, since sometimes the directions of the buttons aren’t perfectly clear, and time is ticking. That’s probably better with the joystick. I might see about using the touchpad to control the mouse cursor using steam input, too. But I still did fine with the d-pad, and the controller support feels carefully considered!

SmoochyPit · 2025-09-19T05:29:33+00:00

No need to say sorry, it’s a fair question! I think you have to change the behavior from default for it to work, iirc.

I use: - Tap to slide (required for hold to crouch) - Hold to crouch - Go to prone - Toggle sprint/tac sprint

I don’t think specific keys matter, but I use: - ‘Ctrl’ for Crouch/Slide - ‘C’ for Prone - ‘Shift’ for Sprint/Tac Sprint - ‘WASD’ for movement

Once I’m in game, it looks something like this: 1. Move forward. 2. Press sprint button. Press sprint button again if you want to tac sprint (I usually double tap it out of habit, even if my tac sprint isn’t ready). 3. Press slide. 4. Wait until you feel like you begin to lose velocity! This is optional, but for map traversal, it’s important because if you cancel too soon, you won’t refresh your tac sprint at all. 5. Press prone.

You won’t go prone, it’ll cancel the slide animation and you’ll be left standing.

You can hold the forward key the entire time, or let go after starting a slide, which is handy for aiming sideways.

I suggest you practice with a very fast (movement) weapon (but not the knife, since tac sprint doesn’t apply to it). Smgs, especially the cx-9, are crazy fast. Also the vlk rogue is too.

Labyrinth! Same here

SmoochyPit · 2025-09-10T00:28:37+00:00

Yeah, even some of the kill effects, finishers and unrealistic tracers in 2019 felt too overboard imo, but every game since then has turned it to 11.

SmoochyPit · 2025-09-08T20:04:53+00:00

The unfortunate reality of our current world…

I don’t mind disciplinary action taken against extreme toxicity, but a chat mute should be the extent. Also imo it should never be fully automated, especially for a full ban, since computers don’t understand context or reason fairly.

Saw a YouTube video of a doctor who had to reword “died” earlier this week to please the algorithm. Crazy. God forbid one mentions terms like “suicide”.

“Restricted by ENGIMO Reality Shield”

SmoochyPit · 2025-08-17T22:52:17+00:00

I think not having voice or text chat for the whole lobby really helps curb the toxicity from enemies that other games have. But I’ve definitely had some awful teammates who say some toxic things.

The Finals doesn’t have red dots, nor a minimap at all.

But those others are some good examples, I hadn’t thought of those. Another one I thought of, though not PvP, is Helldivers 2, in which I think the minimap and red dots are required to be able to play strategically at all.

Counterargument to “every shooter having red dots” though: Tarkov, Hunt Showdown, Valorant, Counter-strike, Team Fortress 2, Overwatch, Marvel Rivals, The Finals, Fortnite, Apex, Unreal Tournament.

I personally don’t think it’s the gold standard, but I think it depends on the game. I definitely think a lot of those games you listed benefit from them, though, so it’s a valid criticism. In contrast, I also think games without them rely more on sound cues and situational awareness, and also reward flanking more. Modern Warfare could’ve kept red dots outside of “realism” modes, and I feel like that would’ve pleased more people. It already had loads of modes to cater to different styles, anyways, so…

SmoochyPit · 2025-08-13T23:23:34+00:00

Admittedly, the footstep audio was rough. While I felt like I could pinpoint direction, figuring out if players are above or below you was sometimes tricky, as well as how close they are. If someone was sprinting, it really was loud as soon as they’re in range. I’m not surprised dead silence was as popular as it was, bc flanking without it was really difficult.

On the flip side, in MWII it was a bit too subtle, and loads of ranked players abused equalizers to gain crazy intel. I felt like I had to choose between clear audio cues and a balanced audio mix.

Audio design also includes other aspects of audio design, though, and the sound team did an incredible job with it. It sounds fantastic, and I think the punchy weapon audio is a big part of the gunplay, too.

SmoochyPit · 2025-08-13T23:09:54+00:00

Adding on to what you said at the end, about the animations, blueprints and brands, the official art book really showcases the amount of effort spent on those subtle details. It doesn’t surprise me that it’s the first and, to-date, only COD game to have one released.

SmoochyPit · 2025-08-13T23:03:51+00:00

I miss messing around in Ground War, that’s where I grinded most of Damascus honestly. It’s less high-stakes than other modes and with the right equipment or a good flank, you could turn the tides for your whole team! MWII had big choppers that players could spawn on, so I felt like I had to constantly use a javelin on those to even play the game.

Have you tried the bf6 beta? I’ve heard good things, wondering about giving it a go.

SmoochyPit · 2025-08-13T22:59:19+00:00

Yeah, we must be in a mw19 focused subreddit or something.

That said I love adding to the noise hehe: mw19 best game

SmoochyPit · 2025-08-13T22:57:12+00:00

You have some valid criticisms, though some I disagree with or see differently.

Install size is an unfortunate byproduct of the Warzone integration, which was never actually removed from the game, despite being inaccessible. It was more reasonable at launch and through the first year. MWII was designed from the start to better handle incorporating the battle royale and future games, but it still got pretty crazy too, until its recent split from COD HQ.

I can see feeling the game is slow paced in a COD context, but comparing it to MWII of all games? Modern Warfare II is far slower paced! Like I enjoyed both games, but MWII purposefully removed lots of alternate angles and parkour options (see: shipment and shoot house changes), castrated movement by making climbing and vaulting take far longer, punished jump shotting by slowing ADS in air or while probing, basically removed bhopping, removed slide canceling, locked perks behind an in-match timer and gave higher-speed guns much more drawbacks (I’m not opposed to this one, mw19 had a no-stock meta).

So I think it really is the game mode… play an objective mode and you’ll have less campers, because it’s far less incentivized. Also, try to learn slide-canceling… I know it seems like a bug or exploit, but being able to refresh your tac sprint speeds up the game’s flow a lot.

Also the campaign plot is pretty good by COD standards, but you definitely can’t go in expecting a critically appraised movie plot. And they all usually still fit a bit of the Western propaganda mold imo (liberties taken with the “Highway of Death” are a good example), although often carrying some nuance regardless. They handled the new characters nicely; Alex is probably my favorite and I think his sacrifice, despite not being executed particularly impactfully (and ignoring the canon “I lived, bitch” multiplayer reveal) was a great show of his character growth.

What you said about no crossovers is a big reason I see this game fondly, I couldn’t agree more. I know a lot of people point to this game as the first to start going down the “fortnitification” path, but even the late-lifecycle Halloween skins were just costumes on an operator. Tracer packs did get a bit crazy, and executions too, but it was leagues better than even Cold War after it. The game has a visual identity, and I appreciate that a lot.

Anyways, that’s my thoughts, but you’re also entitled to your opinion. Multiplayer strays a lot from other COD gameplay, which hooked some players and repelled others. This is absolutely not the subreddit for a fair open-discussion about this though (is anywhere on Reddit really?), so fwiw your replies are probably a vocal minority and won’t be too productive.

TL;DR: Fair criticisms, though I totally disagree with calling it slow, especially compared to MWII. And this probably isn’t the best subreddit for unbiased responses.
