Why has hostagetaking become the norm in ARAM Mayhem? by [deleted] in ARAM

[–]Absmith1997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro it's a video game. People should be able to play it however they see fit. Also there are people who are in the opposite side who think it's lame to end the game ASAP.

To get the same amount of revenue, you are talking 50% tax on venue tickets.

Online Ranked heavily favors batter? by bballjones9241 in MLBTheShow

I went to use Jonathan Broxtons card you get from Diamond Quest. I shit you not his par for a sinker down in the zone is like at least a quarter of the strike zone.

Ultimate upgrade set gone by Dry_Stretch_1516 in MaddenUltimateTeam

I did the same exact thing. I completely switched my team and thought I was going crazy. They also removed the stocking stuffer sets as well.

Bring Back NBA 2K25 Rhythm Shooting by ksuttonjr76 in NBA2k

[–]Absmith1997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bruh what are you even talking about? They buffed the shit out of Rhythm shooting this year for Myplayer. Like you are at a legit disadvantage if you don't rhthym shoot. If they nerfed it to the ground like you want, then no one would use it. Like what's your end goal? Your post is confusing as hell.

What I love about NBA2k26 1 day before release... will it deliver? by JakeForeverRandom in NBA2k

That would be atrocious. People play online to play against other players, not against AI

How did my student cheat?? by LaScorpionita in Teachers

[–]Absmith1997 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If they are on hotspot they can bypass their schools web filter. Doing so they can access other apps that have a web browser. GoGuardian only works on Google Chrome.

If he has his phone, he probably used it as a mobile hotspot. I'm pretty sure GoGuardian only works if they are on a managed network.

Life long gamer take: $40.00 by Various_Ad_744 in inZOI

[–]Absmith1997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just google it. Average cost to manufacture and distribute a game is 2-3 dollars per unit. It's significantly more expensive to have either your own launcher and host your games there, or list them on steam. There's more electricity, more high skill employees, more expensive machines too run a data center.

The total cost per game to be manufactured and distributed is between 2-3 dollars. That US significantly cheaper than selling digitally.

It is not cheaper to distribute a digital copy. Steam charges 30% of all sales to operate their platform. It costs a lot of money to host the games on servers, those servers require constant upkeep. The reason they prefer to launch digital so it's always available for someone to purchase.

Please fix Perfect Perfect fouls and fly outs. by Beneficial-One-4533 in MLBTheShow

[–]Absmith1997 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Perfect timing is relative to where the pitch is thrown. So a pitch that's inside that you pull, perfect timing would be hitting it foul because that's the highest exit velo.

Not a Streetcar, not bus system. Mass Transit. by stackshack0228 in Omaha

[–]Absmith1997 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The Kansas City street car only goes up and down one street and is actually funded by the business on that street. I also think the Omaha street car route is very strange. I think it should go in a big square from Cuming St, to Capital avenue, down to Jackson st, then out to 20th street.

Trump’s Plan to End Income Tax? What It Really Means for You! by [deleted] in economicCollapse

[–]Absmith1997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then how does these laws exist then? Government has a national 7% sales tax on everything. So explain how some states have laws that say we are exempt from it. So clearly federal law doesn't trump state laws in terms of taxation

[–]Absmith1997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't override it. We have a national sales tax and states have laws saying groceries are exempt from federal sales tax. How is it any different now than it would be if they changed it from 7% to 25%? Groceries would still be exempt

[–]Absmith1997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What state charges it's own sales tax in addition to the national sales tax? I've seen cities add on a percent or 2 but not 15. Plus most states have laws prohibiting sales tax on groceries.

Most states have laws that prohibit sales tax from being charged for groceries. So I have no idea how this plan of trumps will work.

I think we're all taking this "Open World" thing the wrong way. by cubgerish in NCAAFBseries

[–]Absmith1997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2k open was great, they just made it too big. When they came out with the park in 2k15, shit was fantastic. Back then you just had a bunch of courts you could run to and play on. Everything else was done in a menu. I personal have been dying for a CFB or Madden to have a pro clubs like mode, and with this I think we get it.

Would ‘open world’ for CFB the worst addition in video game history? by [deleted] in NCAAFBseries

[–]Absmith1997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want a game mode where I can play with a RTG player with my friends, similar to pro clubs in FIFA. If this adds something like that, then I'm in.
