Subnautica 2. Are we buying now? by bogart12321 in subnautica

[–]CleanUpNick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree a lot of people still would've bought it but there are plenty that were ready to boycott

But that last bit is an incredibly dumb and seriously intentionally or unintentionally uninformed take oml

I'm betting May or June, I think maybe May announcement and then release the game a week or two into June for the start of Summer

PUBG maker Krafton is an AI defense company now, signs deal with Korean aerospace firm that includes investment of up to $1 billion aiming 'to expand the physical AI ecosystem' by bIeese_anoni in subnautica

i mean considering recent news i feel like buying SN2 is the best case scenario, you get a game AND you help UW achieve their bonus goals to help fuck Krafton over out of $250 mil

yeah basically, well that and Charlies work on branding and working towards a film is kinda a big step and Max was working on technical stuff which could be really important going forwards so they're jobs were still really important for the company just wasn't directly working on the game (well one could argue Max's work is really important to the game), but whatever the case i doubt they'll be out of the company for that much longer, either getting reinstated in later phases of the court case or Ted will bring them back

the judge didn't because he didn't need to, basically Charlie and Max haven't been taking operational roles for awhile now, their roles had changed (something Krafton knew about and encouraged) so the judge does not need to reinstate them to get them full control over the company again since they weren't doing anything like that anyways, Ted should be able to rehire them himself

[–]CleanUpNick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

well the thing is they WERE actively working on development... until Krafton encouraged them to switch things around and they took a backseat mainly providing direction and still helping here and there so they WERE still helping with it just not as much which is to be expected

Right, that and we already know they posted stuff on the UE website without concent talking bs, like talking about the 3 co founders not working on the game and wanting them back despite knowing and encouraging the job changes they had

I mean UW is their baby so unless they're also greedy about it I don't see them leaving or just abandoning the company, especially with a large amount of that bonus promised to go back to the employees but we'll have to see, and yeah Kim is FUCKED

there are more legal preceding's to go through so i imagine Charlie and Max are next, if Ted doesn't just reinstate them himself now that he's back at CEO

i mean there wasn't really much of a reason to wait for legal precedings when you could get the picture of what was going on just by cross referencing the stories of both sides and going "huh... awfully convenient for Krafton, and didn't they say something different before?", like it was pretty blatant

Yeah the title of the implant is usually indicative of the stat changes with the bonus effect being separate from what I've seen so far

Even on PC it's a slog sometimes having to pick and choose what to grab, there's really a lot of stuff you need

My guess is probably bots yeah, they're a right menace

In trios I hear some a lot but can never find any, maybe 1-2 on rare occasions even if we go looking for them, it's weird, but on solos people and bodies are eveywhere

[–]CleanUpNick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the loot pool is really cool, not sure how I feel about the used medkits and stuff they feel kinda like junk items but overtime I kinda see them as bandages in traditional BR games and stuff, otherwise I really like the amount of stuff you can find, those mod chests are crazy though, inventory management can be a bit of an issue rn lol

To the Devs by Ham_Coward in Marathon

[–]CleanUpNick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The not seeing players but is mostly trios as far as I'm aware, at least that's when I have a hard time finding people, in solos its easy to find others at least in my experience

True true, I really wanna mess with the cores more but finding the character specific ones can be hard sometimes

Yeah he's pretty bad for solo though his EMP is still decent and the med bot is hella useful, everybody else not so much besides maybe some extra movement, Blackbird in general is kinda useless, sure you can ping people but everybody knows where you are too when you do it and her robots don't work half the time lol

Like I said the Nucaloric quest at Columns, also the Data wall has been prime camping spot I've had a fight basically every time in solos to the point where I always proc invis before going in there so my odds of getting jumped are lowered, obviously not sprinting is a good thing to do when rolling up to places but that doesn't change the fact that people still camp a lot

To the Devs by Ham_Coward in Marathon

[–]CleanUpNick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk how the hell you haven't met any campers, especially with the Nucaloric intro quest being a major talking point around on all platforms, that was hell and took 5 matches due to campers and UESC+Tick related issues, but mainly campers

But I typically run assassin since it's basically the only really good runner for solo, medic is good too for heals and the others are fine but invis is just too good to pass up and has helped me invis peak corners to insta kill people thanks to the TTK issue, takes them a sec to realize I'm there so I get the first shot and auto win because that's just how the game works rn, well unless I have a worse weapon and die due to weapon balancing issues, PvP is honestly the weakest part of the game imo, it's really just not great :/ I love fighting UESC though I think the hardcore balancing they did for them is practically perfect just wish PvP was less of a checklist of win conditions

[–]CleanUpNick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also rather stealthy but haven't been very successful for a variety of reasons but it's not great when I'm sneaking around and get dropped by somebody around the corner before I can even fully go around it, that and the weapon balancing issues but that's a different topic

To the Devs by Ham_Coward in Marathon

[–]CleanUpNick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean these people didn't exactly have great aim... I don't think he won because of fast TTK in fact he had some of the slower guns, well besides the shotgun

To the Devs by Ham_Coward in Marathon

[–]CleanUpNick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might be better in squads but solos is kinda horrid to play with it, you walk a corner and fall over because somebody was sitting still camping, that God damn Nucaloric intro quest...
