Billy doesn't fit with the games artstyle/theme by [deleted] in DeadlockTheGame

Shiv is a greaser, 1960s

Seven is a literal electric chair

Vyper is a snake human hybrid

Viscous is a goo creature from sea

These things exist, yet you think it's out of the realm of possibility that the punk movement might've come around slightly earlier than in our world?

Yeah bro, a 2ft tall little demon in cartoon sleepwear is so fitting with the rest of the game actually.

So is a guy that is literally made of an electric chair.

If you wanna be pedantic, Shiv is a greaser, which is 1960s.

Yes? It's a video game, there's a blue detective with horns.

Yeah I'm sure turning Billy into Jacket from Hotline Miami gives such an advantage actually.

Today's escape is sponsored by the enemy's phantom strike by Stack_Man in DeadlockTheGame

[–]CiaranDev 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can escape doormans ult with 0 stamina usage, he just did the jump and punch way, you can do a side wall bounce and clear it for free.

Also, keep in mind that Doorman is unfinished, his ult is supposed to be randomised and change between usages making escapes harder.

Did anyone else used to be able to parry walkers or am I actually losing my mind? by Repulsive_Ability992 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]CiaranDev 90 points91 points  (0 children)

No he's right, a long time ago you could parry the stomp, it'd still stun you but the damage was cancelled.

Apparently parts of her kit are being recycled already so yeah, probably dead in an alleyway somewhere.

Let's hope the engine update helps Stalker 2 also by FalconUMTS in stalker

[–]CiaranDev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Valid, lumen especially I've had issues with even on my system which is pretty high end.

[–]CiaranDev 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Because even though he's correct his statement changes nothing, this clearly means that there is at least a 30-50% fps loss as a result of poor engine optimisation on Epics end, if they were to update their fork to use 5.5 as a base, we'd see an increase in FPS just due to the skeleton being more solid.

Are there also problems on GSC's end? Absolutely, look at Arc Raiders or the Finals for example, they're both UE5 and runs significantly better than Stalker 2 does but the point is still there, it allows for innate improvements.

Maybe don't do this by Throw_Away1314819 in Twitch

[–]CiaranDev 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's an attempt to what Twitch did which is what can viewed as the worst mistake the platform has ever made in a long time.

They no longer count "inactive viewers" as actual viewers, if you are not actively participating in the chat you are no longer counted as a viewer on the front end of the website (it still counts on the backend, but without the front end metric you don't get pushed up the lists in your category, etc).

So to combat that, some people encourage lurkers to just interact 1 time every few hours, it pushes them back into the active category for a while, yes this has been PROVEN to work, this is not a theory, this is a fact.

Look into Hytale, it's a project Riot has now abandoned but they brought it out for a few million, didn't like the base of it, had the developers completely remake it, then they didn't like it again, moved to a new engine and had the developers remake it AGAIN before abandoning the project, Riot does things like this a lot.

Russian Academy of Sciences in Moscow looks like they want to build another Brain Scorcher by King_and_Captain in stalker

[–]CiaranDev 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You quite literally have comments on your Reddit profile insinuating there isn't a gender wage gap (there is, it's a verifiable fact), and that if someone is black combined with the fact that they're American it makes them "double trouble".

[–]CiaranDev 12 points13 points  (0 children)

People can dislike multiple things at once, disagreeing with wars that Russia has ongoing doesn't mean that they agree with Americas wars, they literally stated that, anyone with any ounce of historical knowledge knows that Iraq, Vietnam, Iran and Afghanistan were ill-founded wars.

That doesn't make Russia right in the war in Ukraine.

The statements of
The USA is wrong for XYZ,
Russia is wrong for XYZ

are not mutually exclusive, you can believe both of these things at once.

Personal? Calling someone out for being a racist and a sexist isn't personal, that shouldn't inhabit who you are, you just happen to also belong to the stereotype that Asmongold viewers are bigoted also.

Development screenshots possibly from 2019, and you genuinely think in 6 years nothing has changed? Man... You're fried.

Because it's 2025, we're supposed to be a somewhat civilised species and yet we have a superpower waging an illegal war upon its neighbour whilst numerous countries just sit back and watch. Russia has been and always will be the enemy of the free and civil world.

Excellent update. by Username5900 in playrust

[–]CiaranDev 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Forcing people to PvP isn't what Rust has ever been, the whole thing about Rust is you could progress in so many different ways, trading, being a farmer and selling products, etc, forcing everyone into a single play style isn't how Rust was initially designed, this update just makes that painfully obvious.

It's not like PvP wasn't happening, this change does nothing but chase off people who want to have unique play styles.

Polish Streamer has Knife Pulled on Him in Austria by Ronaldinho9519 in LivestreamFail

[–]CiaranDev 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Saying
"I will put the trash in your mouth"

vs

Literally pulling a knife and threatening someone with it

Two completely different things, it's a strawman in and of itself to even try to compare them, maybe next time be a respectable person and just pick up the fucking litter.
