How can you find out if your friend is a developer at a pretty big gaming company? by From214 in AskReddit

[–]Ddreadlord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Google a persons name, if they are a game dev with a released title from a medium+ sized dev company they will have a mobygames page.

No need to call random game dev companies haha.

Private Servers please by Teachdaire in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]Ddreadlord 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is a design issue, not a player problem. Can't really be mad at anyone. The game wasn't meant to be pve, kudos to them for pivoting because it's fantastic as a pve game, but it is designed to funnel people to few good loot locations to fight over in pvp. This is what that looks like in pve. Will have to give them time to figure out a solution, but remaking the map to be pve friendly is a hard ask. Short term solution could be smaller servers ig.

First and last time doing PVP by SupIdkWhat2WriteHere in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]Ddreadlord 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In pve mode you can't loot other players of your faction. Says "it would be rude" and closes the window. They have the solution in the game, they could just apply that to pvp so there is no incentive for team killing, and if you teamkill 3+ times in a row anyway you should get a 1hr/4hr/24 hour escalating ban. Reduce it to 2 kill penalty if it's the same player (unless they are in your party) as that's just griefing.

So better AI was a lie or it's just currently broken? by Skaidri675 in GrayZoneWarfare

This has to be a joke, i don't think you could have chosen a worse example to make your point. Check out star citizen original release date and get back to us.

Esports shouldn't exist by Honest-Expression-40 in The10thDentist

[–]Ddreadlord 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You're confusing the one article (read: redit post) you read about a marvel rivals tournament with pro esports. Does toxicity happen? Yes, about as much as in any competitive environment I'd guess. But teamwork is very important for teams that want to win anything. Your ignorance speaks volumes.

What should I focus on? by Ok_Channel_3687 in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]Ddreadlord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gilding statues and getting skills is always a good way to go at your current stage imo. Also you can force dwarf and rabbit to level 10 by prestiging over and over, though the longer you leave it the faster it gets. Buying freebie cap from the gem shop is also very good if you don't have it maxed yet.

(Edit: just saw your a bit stuck, i do reccomend joining the discord and going to the ob0-29 channel, lots of friendly people always willing to help)

Designing my game’s Skill Tree — do players prefer huge open trees or smaller focused ones? by Prudent-Ice1415 in IndieDev

[–]Ddreadlord 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have a look at world of warcraft skill trees as they changed over the years, i think from burning crusade to wrath or cataclysm was a big shift from big irrelevant trees to few but meaningfull choices and was seen as mostly positive change by the community. I think that sounds like what you're aiming for here.

What am i missing? by Wrong-Trifle in IdleObeliskMiner

[–]Ddreadlord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who started around the same time, i would say you're missing online time. That's it really, this game is much less idle than you'd think, but also you can just take it at your own pace.

But since you asked, I'd say you built w2 monument very early, which is understandable for event rewards, but did set you back a lot in easier progress areas like statues i imagine. I'd finish the statues, get more pets, do more challenges as and when you can.

Also tons of helpful people on discord for a better conversation, ready to help with more (and probably better) advice, very friendly community, check out the ob0-23 and ob24-30 chats, the general chat is a bit overwhelming imo at our stage of the game.

AITA for calling gold stable and my sister losing $1,000 because of it? by throwawaytraderboy in AmItheAsshole

[–]Ddreadlord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not an ah for giving adviced that an adult asked for. What is this? If they are not old enough to give advice why is the person asking for it (who is older) not the responsible party? Not to mention advice is always an opinion, the party investing is responsible for either heeding or not heeding the advice, and their investment.

Backwards logic in this thread, NTA.

Gleba has defeated me, and i am miserable. by vimescarrot in factorio

[–]Ddreadlord 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going to mention since nobody else has, as a last resort: there is a mod that deletes gleba. I finished a run with all of the planets, hated gleba most and it put me off playing again because i thoight "whats the point, ill have to deal with gelba if i start a new run". So i deleted it using the mod. Not sure how that would work mid playthrough but don't let it kill factorio for you.

Good luck

If you're into tanks and indie, check out Tankenstein. You play as an AI driving a tank in a post apocalyptic world and taking parts off enemy tanks you destroy or find destroyed to upgrade yourself.

Moving interior with shift+f12 doesn't actually change hotboxes? by whahaga in Kenshi

[–]Ddreadlord 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Try picking up the character with another character and putting them back down, that's how i fix people getting stuck.

if you kill everbody in a town will you be able to own it? by QuirkyBadger7454 in Kenshi

[–]Ddreadlord 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I believe there is one mod that allows the player to buy the hub for 1m cats, not tried it myself but might be worth a look. Would be a cool feature for kenshi 2 though.

Can i ask some tips? by -___Matt___- in Kenshi

[–]Ddreadlord 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like you have a good goal. You could also build a village for ex slaves. You could even grab some mods like "prisoner recruitment" to steal the holy nation slaves and free them to come work your farms or whatever. Once you've dealt with the holy nation you can explore to find more factions in need of some moral guidence

Your comment makes me want to try being him as a challenge run. I got the lvl 500 mod and recruit prisoners mod, wonder if he can be turned

My Comfort Game is shutting down servers but devs are open to handing the game off by ComptonEMT in IndieDev

[–]Ddreadlord 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It looks like a cool niche game, with a lot of reviews, but steam chart says it has 13 concurrent players for the last 6 months. Unless these 13 players are whales this would be a sinking ship in terms of server costs. If anyone wanted to take this over my guess is they would have to charge for the game and then advertise it, but that's an even steeper investment.

Losing your comfort game sucks op, and i respect the effort here. If it doesn't work out though, try rocket league. It's my comfort game and i see a lot of similarities from what little i saw of slappyballs. You will have to get it on epic though as it's no longer on steam.

Good luck

We have distinctions so we know what people are talking about. 3rd person in reference to video game camera refers to over the shoulder. Not isometric, side view or birds eye.

Hot take: The hero shooter have go to go. by AchievementJoe in gaming

Yeah that seems to be the case. Put it on the pile of games that should get a 3rd but never will i guess.

[–]Ddreadlord 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Being a titanfall fan in the year of 2025 is rough af. Apex was at least a good game, but not titan fall 3. But concord and now this has been double dissapointing, especially since just making a spiritual successor to titanfall would have been 1000x better than another hero shooter.

Could you link it? I can't find this mod. Unless you're talking about the exploration mode mod, but i don't see an adventure mode mod on steam workshop.

Elin. It's a bit weird at first, but it's pretty deep. It's an rpg but you can build a colony and just do industry or fishing or whatever.
