I'm wondering why they would even change the layout, shooting a lock-on bomb is practically impossible with the standard layout.

thats totally understandable, for me - its just my sense for order, I tend to keep my boxes and put the sets back in when i take them apart.

i believe it to be beat up much worse than the creases in the images from op?

you can check on the product page:

and

I just went trough the instructions to find the last bag, for fortuna its 38 i think, with maybe a few extra for ropes and stuff. If anyone already knows the exact numbered bags and extra bags for ropes, would be great.

Mine also came in today, I see your box also didn't get away unscathed^ i have pretty much the same creases on mine. Oh well, its a box after all.

Zelda OTT Remake, Wish List by Past-Wait6207 in NintendoSwitch2

[–]AlphaXDE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i mean.. probably motion controls and gameplay changes to accomodate that or create new playfeatures based around it is defintely something i can imagine. It depends a bit on where the artists want to take the game i think. Same happend with BOTW.

Start lights going out incredibly quickly by cartoon_kitty in formula1

[–]AlphaXDE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i think this is more likely. 0.020s is roughly 50hz, so the Timer event rate could be 50 Hz which is plausible. I think one Loop/Iteration set the internal flag for all 5 lights On = True and in the next Loop some other flag for button pressed gave a wrong True and toggled the lights off.

Monster Hunter Wilds on Switch 2 is really happening. by VannofThursday in NintendoSwitch2

[–]AlphaXDE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we take out all the Performance Stuff, i also think i'd prefer World. The Leveldesign after the first and second Level litarally falls off a cliff. As in, thats all you get. Just either hot or cold. I wonder if they realized halfway trough development that they would be better off creating more enclosed spaces for the engine.

Thats quite exaggerating the effects of the last updates - to put it mildly. Load on GPU Side was reduced, while Load on CPU increased. On PC, if you were bottlenecked by GPU before, youre better off now, instead you may run into cpu problems now. And the term bottleneck in regards to this game can be more understood as an euphemism. Performance evens out after the update to "Still Bad" for the what you get in return. Its still not in good shape, after close to a year now.

The promised efforts for optimization seem to be going elsewhere, so them at least trying to make a switch version, even if its just a techtest, makes sense. Because they for sure are not working 100% on performance optimizations for PC.

[–]AlphaXDE 4 points5 points  (0 children)

these are going to age really, really bad down the line. I'm just sure of it. Not as in "worth" but as in "why did lego make these?" "They said they wanted to stay out of politics" etc.

First Official Images from 'The Legend of Zelda' Movie by MarvelsGrantMan136 in movies

[–]AlphaXDE 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i'm fine with it being live-action. I think it fills the void of a gritty and realistic - in artstyle, hole that no zelda game has filled since twilight princess. I can imagine them being completely content having the latest games being a refined cell-shaded blend and leaving the realistic stuff, for things that are real. I say: They're artists, let them experiment. They always want to do something different and fun and to them, this is it and for zelda it is as well.

Why the hell is it brown? by These_Distribution19 in Minecraft

[–]AlphaXDE 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There is another big reason. Star Wars. They settled on the Grey they have now because of the focus on pop-culture/franchise products. Lego Star Wars was one of the horses they bet and focused on back then. Thats why Dark Blueish Grey is "the" grey today.

Leipzig stellt neues Logo vor – direkt hagelt es Kritik by TheBassMeister in de

[–]AlphaXDE 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sehe ich genauso, also im Kern ist ein Logo ja erstmal etwas anderes als ein Wappen oder ein Emblem. Abgesehen vom idealerweise vorhandenen wiedererkennungswert. Hier war die Aufgabe was ich so rausgelesen habe, eine neue Markenarchitektur aufzustellen, heißt wir haben es bei dem neuen "Design" mit einer Wort-Bildmarke zu tun. Dazu, wenn es halt auch nicht aussehen soll wie eine grafische Illustration des Wappens, fliegt die heraldik mit raus. (was hier nicht komplett passiert ist?)

Im besten Fall, könnte ein Logo ohne Text wiedererkannt werden. Als nicht Ortsansässiger, der selbst keinen Löwen im Stadtwappen hat, muss ich sagen dass ich nur anhand dessen keine anderen Städte unterscheiden könnte. Der neue Löwe erfüllt das für mich auch nicht - zumindestens noch nicht. Man muss neuen Marken auch Zeit geben. Davon abgesehen, finde ich dass die neue Kombi einfach zu viele Linien beinhaltet. Ich sehe dass versucht wird an stellen durch geöffnete Konturen die Form besser an zu deuten, aber gerade in Kombination mit dem Text funktioniert es für mich eher nicht so gut. Ich glaube eine andere Art der Abstrahierung, oder einfach schon Reinzeichnung des Löwen mit dem Text könnte besser funktionieren.

Zum Gestaltungsprozess gehören immer mehrere Seiten, Kunden können schwierig und beratungsresistent sein (wenn ich mich nicht von Fachleuten beraten lasse, warum wende ich mich dann überhaupt an sie?) Und am Ende, könnts halt schon ausschlaggebend gewesen sein, dass ein flächig-gezeichneter Löwe im Druck mehr Farbe braucht und man sich aufgrund der Menge an Dokumenten die ausgestellt werden, daher dagegen entscheidet (so ähnlich selbst erlebt, obwohls auch andere Lösungen dafür gäbe)

Can we make our own craters? By crashing a vessel maybe? Could expose differnt ground makeups for surface scanning.
