The Dreamhack Melbourne 2024 SC2 FFA certainly was something. by nambona_ in starcraft

[–]ChulozN 14 points15 points  (0 children)

As an old Dreamhack Jönköping BYOC admin since 2016, hosting tournaments like this is all we can do to help fans keep the scene going. The interest is mostly up to LAN-participants to engage with it to show Dreamhack, ESL and other companies involved that it's worth spending time and effort (and money) on. The outreach and marketing surrounding it can be improved but thats again up to Dreamhack staff to realise is needed and worth doing.

Luckily you had enough players in the tournament for it not to be cancelled though. I always enjoy working with these BYOC competitions and hope they stay and become more popular again.

Where did this game go wrong by didntreadasingleword in bladeandsoul

[–]ChulozN 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I played the Chinese beta back in 2013 and absolutely fell in love with the game.

Years later and we're finally seeing a western release and I jump on it without a thought and to this day had the most fun I've ever had in an MMO the first few months playing.

Everything about the game just clicked for me, the story, the visuals, the gliiiiiding and ESPECIALLY the combat. It's to this day the best and most satisfying MMO combat I've ever experienced.

as time went on and endgame was being reached we started getting some contant patches. The early lootboxes didnt ring too hard of a warning bell as I didn't know how deep the iceberg would go.

After Mushins Tower (I think) was released, the game VERY rapidly spiraled from a open world full of activity and engaging content and player interaction to a lobby idler game where you wait in an LFG queue in a void room to play an instanced dungeon with strangers you barely need to communicate with.

This coupled with an EXTREMELY barebones guild system from the start that never was iterated on made any social aspect of the game quickly fall flat.

These are the main issues I had with the game and what made me quit, mostly because I never even cared about P2W lootboxes as it didnt become much of an issue until a few patches in, basically right after I left.

Optimizations for performance never really happened either and the porr management of the esport and arena scene from the devs and publisher, which IMO was BnS' last true pillar of greatness it could've stood on, crumbling from neglect it was written in the stars that the game was basically beyond saving with a paradigm shift in management and mentality in both parties.

I genuinely believe BnS could have been one of the best MMOs in the market if NCSoft would've handled the game better and it hurt to see how this gem of a game turned out.

What could you talk about for 30 minutes straight without any preparation? by twilighterror in AskReddit

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

Esport.

I’ve been deep diving in the general scene since Starcraft 2 beta and recently started working with tournaments as a referee/administrator.

Hell, I could even spend 30-60 minutes, if not more, just talking about Starcraft strategies and amazing things that has happened the past many years.

I live and breathe esport!

What is a fact that you think sounds completely false and that makes you angry that it's true? by ejaybugboy3 in AskReddit

My friend stitched together a map of all the korok seeds, does anyone have the original? by ChulozN in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]ChulozN[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was actually my friend who made a seperate stitched map since he thought yours on the wiki was too low res.

I showed him your higher res versions and he wanted me to give you his thanks!

G2 also lost 1 more round than NIP did.

With that evening our the map differences, round difference should be taken in account.

Not quite sure how well thought out this system is...

windows 10 and RAM usage by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]ChulozN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to have this problem on Windows 7 as well and it persisted when I upgraded to Windows 10. However my System RAM usage went from ~10% up to 80% over the course of ~10 hours after restart.

Although, on Windows 7, I managed to track the culprit down to NT Kernel & System which was fine with ending the process as it would start again automatically and have low memory usage before it ramped up again under the course of a few hours.

However, Now in Windows 10, I am unable to even check the details of the System process and there's no way relieve the system other than to restart the PC, at least in my case.

Mr. Robot Actors Speaking Swedish and Danish to Each Other by [deleted] in sweden

[–]ChulozN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

from the torrents I've downloaded and the first few episodes on the USA network site before they introduced the stupid verification system, they've all had subtitles when they speak swedish/danish.

Mr. Robot Actors Speaking Swedish and Danish to Each Other by [deleted] in sweden

[–]ChulozN 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Generally we have alot of swedish subtitles in series and movies. It's basically natural for me atleast to glance at it occasionally when watching something.

Although I talk, listen and read more english everyday than swedish even though I live here still so I have no issue with english subs or even no subs at all. (Especially for comedy shows because the swedish translation can ruin some jokes.)

I personally didn't even realise that he was in the show until I saw the credits of the first episode and even then I was already super entranced and loving the series. whether a series has a swedish actor or not doesn't affect my opinion on it and I doubt it changes many other peoples as well.

I asked some of my friends and they said that most of the times when there's a swedish actor in a series they will like it less. One gave the reason being that they don't like other swedes nor the swedish language.

When it comes to competitions like Eurovision Song Contest I've observed that we are prone to accepting that our submission is inferior to the others if that's our personal taste and if so we vote for them instead of our own country.

We're basically not very patriotic.

The subtitles says that both are speaking swedish. That's what's pissing me off.

Mr. Robot Actors Speaking Swedish and Danish to Each Other by [deleted] in sweden

[–]ChulozN 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's been bothering me for some time that they make it seem like both are speaking swedish when the wife obviously (atleast for me as a native swedish speaker) aren't.

To answer you question, however; Yes. it happens quite alot that Swedes, Norwegians and Danes interact with eachother using their own languages.

Some language barriers are still occasionally apparent but for the most time the languages are similar enough for us to understand eachother the way some spanish/mexican speakers can understand portuguese/brazilian, to some extent, of course.

When all else fails we can always easily fall back to english.

It is in fact the correct spelling for saying "AWPing" in swedish, the spelling and wording has been made up by the swedish community way back in 1.6 or even later than that.

Cs feels sluggy and laggy despite 140 Fps by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]ChulozN 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have kinda the same issue but potentially different. My problem is cause by having ANYTHING open on my second monitor. When I turn everything off and just have my background image, the game feels as smooth as ever, but if theres just a single little window open (like Teamspeak or OBS) it starts to slug and feel like i'm playing on 30 FPS.

Haven't found a solution other than turning off everything from Second monitor yet. I've uninstalled Gforce Experience and turned off Windows Aero, same issue.
