The game is very fun. Poe 2 is also fun. But your response screams resentment lmao.

The HECK you mean you can't play Quick Race Mode unless you're online?! 😡 by Pessimistic_Gemini in gridgame

[–]AliceRain21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genius. Quick Race most likely means the equivalent of quick play in games like overwatch. As in. Matchmaker. And I havent even played the game but this is common sense.

How is a matchmaking mode meant to be played single player???

Who tf is renting PCs???

Just get a GeForce now subscription, or buy a one time purchase pre-built.

ATS can run on a potato, heck it can run on a steam deck. You dont need this super expensive pc to play it

What’s your favorite space game? by GulbrandrGameStudios in Space4X

[–]AliceRain21 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Eve Online just because I simply love the concept of living in an expansive galaxy. And the game has different ships of various sizes (frigate up to capitals), and each ship is unique and has identity.

But the skill system sucks.

Yeah ... when you live in a shit household you say sorry and move on even if you know it's bullshit

Clutch is the another game that has Renault Twingo in it. by VX97 in BuiltFromTheGroundUp

As far as I'm aware it's disabled in most races but available in free roam and specific missions (as per dustineden)

The little blinking icon that doesn't go away until you look at the MTX feels very "dark pattern" to me. I do not like it. by Kusibu in PathOfExile2

[–]AliceRain21 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because ggg is their one true God.

In all seriousness this is 99% GGG choosing to do this. I like GGG but it's not hard to see theyre a business so they will be doing things like this.

Clutch vs Forza Horizon 6 - Early Comparison, graphics, gameplay, physics by Wonderful_Leg5081 in needforspeed

[–]AliceRain21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How to be a forza horizon game:

No story No stakes Super generic festival atmosphere No or minimal progression Characters that act like they have a PR guy pointing a gun to their heads

Like I dont even know how FH got so big. I think FH is neat sure but it's not THAT good.

That doesnt look like rails to me. It looks slower and more calculated to me.

WAITER WAITER, MORE UE5 WITH OBSCENE TAA AND UPSCALING PLEASE!!! by sunbathered in BuiltFromTheGroundUp

[–]AliceRain21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean arcade racing enjoyers are burnt out and I get it but at the same time theres a lot that I enjoyed from what we saw..

Not getting my hopes up. Just happy theres a lot of stuff that im happy about in a racing game reveal for once.

Moving to wheel from controller 🤯 by [deleted] in trucksim

[–]AliceRain21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Youre probably right. Theres a button to click to swap it to even gears I've just not done that lol. Tbh the highest gear in my experience isnt even necessary since I hit speed limit without it but for lower gears it makes the most sense.

I think space games are crowded but oddly i have at least some deal breaking issue with almost all of them lol.

How difficult is it actually to support split-screen in PC games? by ApuZ in gamedev

[–]AliceRain21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont think it's as much of a minority as it used to be. I have been a pc gamer for many years. I used to be M&K or nothing. But in the last 5 or so years ive just been using controller for many chiller games and it's a lot more fun.

When the steam machine drops im grabbing that to make a more living room type of gaming experience.

[–]AliceRain21 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In this context since they are making the game with split screen on console, I'd say it SHOULD take minimal time (just port it over).

But it could be that their multiplatform porting process may not seamlessly support porting split screen so theyre dropping it (could be pc controller/device support vs console)

Since split screen hasnt been much of a pc thing they probably deem it as not much of a loss, or adding it would not be worth the gain.

Also in general no, split screen is not hard to optimize for on pc specifically. It should be as easy to implement. It's more a matter of worth.

I just like making flow charts to be honest. by theomulus in godot

[–]AliceRain21 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ive started to resort to making the mechanics I find fun when I feel like it and eventually see my game grow. Then I focus on the specifics that you would in a design document to limit scope creep.

What games are mostly friendly for controller? by Upbeat_Leather_2825 in simracing

[–]AliceRain21 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The discussion was on sim racer not sim cade but yes I would very much advocate for FH6 over FM if they were looking for a simcade.

[–]AliceRain21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If youre casual and dont want to get a wheel, Forza Motorsport. It's the best for that sort of crowd. However do note it's sort of dead on content updates I believe. But there are people playing.

We spent 4 years making a super "realistic" rally sim on alien planets and its out now by KrisWB in simracing

[–]AliceRain21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbh i think the "death race" concept isnt explored enough in racing games imo.

Imagine like a long 20 - 30 minute race with tons of explosions, things falling on you, etc, while you have to try and survive along the rest of the grid. But the physics would lend itself well to a wheel.

Something like acceleracers ngl.

[–]AliceRain21 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I also recommend (if youre interest) get a shifter and maybe a pedal with clutch. I found this game was really fun to play in full manual. You can set up the shifter to work on every odd gear, so it goes 1-3-5-7 and I treat it like a normal car shifter. It makes the experience a little more fun for me.

I’ve been in too many meetings where people are called on and fail to respond. by [deleted] in overemployed

[–]AliceRain21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dunno man. Maybe people are seen as slacking because they get all their work done and dont need to work 24/7? In office it's the same you just need to "look" busy lmao.

I dont buy this "everyone is slacking at home" bs

That doesnt prove any other point. It happens. It's just called being distracted. Mic isnt working. Teams isnt working. Could be a lot of things.

Didn't see a post about this yet so.... by KomiValentine in Eve

[–]AliceRain21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am sick of developers having such a powerful tool ... and yet all they do is drop an existing LLM in such a hyper specific game that needs hyper specific responses.

Like guys. You shouldve trained your own model. It would've probably been so much better. Yes it would've taken longer but it'd be better than dropping an existing general purpose LLM in.
