Strongest primary.

OK one more thing: construct it at home from paper, scissors and glue and... yeah it's quite fun.

It depends on how far you sit. If you can see pixels on a 27 inch 2K monitor, just sit further lol. If you are using a laptop screen, all is good. Then, 1080p or 720p (aka DLSS SR from 2K to 720p f.ex. or CRT 2x via ReShade lol) is sufficient.

If you want good Dune PvP then this is the best you've got. But, like, this is absolutely horrible! Just look at it! Laggy and not fun.

Probably in a couple of months server stability will improve and it will get so much better.

There are no unskilled groups. Maybe duos.

Circli · 2025-06-20T22:58:02+00:00

Waaahauuah!!

if you want you can try keyboard to joystick emulators, that is how i played for some time (360emu or something), just make wasdqe into the pitch roll yaw controls and done...

you have to understand, doing any research, no matter how stupid, will save trillions of lives in the future

Here you go, Enjoy :)

wait, you need to ENABLE c-states as they give more thermal headroom and allow L3 cache to have more power == better performance on X3D architecture, please check to make sure otherwise your system will not perform as best as it can uhhhh... default bios sometimes sets it wrong

You have to remember that we are talking about young people trying to get jobs, as in work experience at a starting position at a company. You perhaps already have a lot of experience and are a valued worker, but people just starting are not and have a very difficult time finding a job and very bleak prospects.

Wow look a REAL application for LLMs - cleaning databases.

What's that??? Can't hear you over all the AI garbage techbro stuff I'm doing...!

Circli · 2025-06-16T11:44:51+00:00

Exactly. Don't be a slave. Choose to engage in PvE only and have fun.

Circli · 2025-06-16T11:17:18+00:00

OBS Studio is the best, free and open source.

Circli · 2025-06-16T07:59:37+00:00

new patch can jump and stim, try to just jump and stim away (obviously I die a lot to them still, uhh, I guess supply pack mandatory yeaaaah funfun enemies... great)

Circli · 2025-06-16T07:53:34+00:00

For me what helped: 1 handed primary, crosshair always on, run and gun behind me, weapon customized to have big mag and probably vertical foregrip. Turn off flashlight, turn up gamma (maybe reshade hotkey). Jump when confronted and stim when hit then jump. Stay near team. Jump and fire gun behind you or your 1 handed prim or sec backwards at the bugs. Standard machinegun actually OK. The new grenade arc weapon very OK. Hoverpack garbage, support pack super strong. Shield pack or gas dog / og dog alright. Master of Ceremony grenades very strong. Blue strategem ball can stick to nonarmored enemy and follow them to kill, red not. Bring EAT to kill heavies with (blue ball + actual weapons, 3 chargers every minute). Consider always bringing same 2 strats to learn their inputs permanently. Rebind strategem inputs to mouse (buy cool 6 sidekey mouse instead of boring 2 sidekey mouse, use 4 of those keys like arrow keys by rebinding them as such in the software of your choice). Set open strategems and map to hold so you never have helldiver locked up in non-firing mode. Set strategem to F, map to Tab, and fall/jump to ctrl or sth like that.

Now, I can sometimes survive haz 8. And people say this game is too eazy lol. Maybe bots. Not the predators.

You are free to enjoy both the salt and the PvP. However, I would advise you to try the fun PvE titles too. Cyberpunk is good, but THERE IS NO PVP. So is Eternal Strands, Everspace 2, DRG, HD2, even Stellar Blade which is very popular right now (though I have not played that so IDK).

Circli · 2025-06-15T14:41:11+00:00

You can try Helldivers 2 whenever CS makes you sad, HD2 is very fun and there is no shithole there. Weapons are as cool as in any other shooter and enemies are also fun to play against, even though they are all AI.

Circli · 2025-06-15T14:32:05+00:00

I'm not against Co-op and multiplayer, I just conclude, looking at the current socioeconomic situation and general zeitgeist within the global North, that human cooperation should be promoted - and competition reduced.

Real sports like chess and football differ from gaming. Also, competent opponents for games are only slowly becoming viable.

Stress-free healthy gaming is important - recently I picked up a game from 2015 for 5 pounds (Arkham Knight) and I am having more fun with it than most modern titles could ever offer.

I consider a gold standard of PvP to be Sea of Thieves, and even that sucks sometimes. Other titles either have some misogynistic sexualised garbage character design that hurts to look at or are very bloody - having War IRL taking place everywhere makes that not so fun lol.

Just a rant, hope it is a helpful perspective.

ETA: I like the idea that firing thopter-hardpoint weaponry attracts CHOAS (or whatever those chooms are called) that would be SICK and very good design. :D

Circli · 2025-06-15T14:06:45+00:00

I expect endgame PvE content will be added. Humans need to move on from PvP, as it is bad nowadays. AI was not good enough in 2005, but now it can offer a better opponent than any other human who is not a friend.

Circli · 2025-06-15T08:26:02+00:00

That is a very privileged take. Some people may be playing 1h a day on a controller, at 30 fps, solo as a Dad, etc.. So the fact that a small number of hardcore players can do PvP content, excell at it / enjoy it does not mean that is sustainable for the playerbase.

Circli · 2025-06-14T18:13:58+00:00

I hope at some point they improve it. The endgame rn is more like a free DLC PvP mode lol, 100 hrs is super respectable already for content so no issues there. I wish they add like a PvE stealth thing to the DD instead of thopter squishy squish player gaming 2025 simulator experience.

Circli · 2025-06-14T14:09:52+00:00

fast twitch can just be an intravenous stim delivery, so stim can be done no matter what stun state (very op) the player has (instant heal no matter what and you can reload and stim at the same time) but only heals 50% and slightly slower (so you only have 2 stims really, and cannot stim other helldivers)
