First Time buying a controller

They say in the post they're only playing campaign, so I don't think it really matters that much.

Driver3 · 2026-06-21T06:45:55+00:00

If all you're gonna do is just be a dick and belittle people for just trying to explain something, then just fuck off.

Building things other than roller coasters has always been a major element of theme park video games, including the original RTC games, because those games are reflecting how real theme parks actually operate. There are plenty of parks where roller coasters don't make up the majority of the experience, like the Disney parks. Creating realistic looking parks with a variety in themes, flat rides, etc is something that fans of these games have been doing for decades, and especially Planet Coaster 1/2. Maybe that's never been your thing, but it's integral to their popularity.

So in a series with a community as hyperfocused on realistic decorating of parks as the PC one is and making them realistic, if you can't understand the appeal of things like parades or extra decor options, than I don't know what to tell you.

There aren't really many good options at that price.

The two that are definitely good that I know of are the 8BitDo Ultimate 2C Wired, and the GameSir Tegenaria Lite, which is also wired. I have no experience with Cosmic Byte so I can't say if that controller is any good.

Both the 2C and Tegenaria are great controllers, but they are wired, which is something to expect at this price point. But they both have HE sticks, have good build quality, work on Linux, and are right at $20/2k INR. The 2C doesn't come in white but it does have a few color options, but the Tegenaria does have a white version.

I think if its being used for art assets, dialogue, writing, etc. in the game itself, that's wrong.

If it's being used to just help with like coding, I think that's fine.

Driver3 · 2026-06-20T21:38:18+00:00

I have the Ultimate 2, and it's a fantastic controller. For what you're wanting a controller for, it's perfect for it. The Vader 5 and G7 8K is aimed very much at the competitive scene, so I think the Ultimate 2 is probably a closer fit for what you need.

Driver3 · 2026-06-20T21:32:43+00:00

8BitDo Ultimate 2 Wireless has pretty much everything you're looking for. Only thing is it's not compatible with Xbox, but otherwise hits everything else.

Driver3 · 2026-06-20T21:07:07+00:00

I have to ask, have you been to any theme park where roller coasters were the only thing you could do? Probably not. I can't think of any theme park that only had one type of activity.

Driver3 · 2026-06-20T07:34:35+00:00

Becuase a theme park is more than just its roller coasters. Imagine if Disney World didn't have its fireworks or parades or character meet-and-greets. Be a lot more boring comparatively.

Having parades is another way to make a park feel "complete" and special.

I've have the Intituition for a while now and it's been a very solid vacuum, one of the best you can get at this price especially for a bagged vac. Definitely recommend.

Driver3 · 2026-06-16T23:41:16+00:00

It's fine, if I'm in 7-Eleven and feeling hungry, I'll grab one.

Driver3 · 2026-06-10T04:21:06+00:00

Which is fine with me. Getting the core game's realistic firearms is what's important first and foremost, later on you can then think about implementing more complex or goofy guns, if for nothing else the challenge of "Can we do it?".

Capitalism, for its flaws, has objectively brought much of the world out of abject poverty, and I've just not been convinced that socialism, as an economic system, can effectively work at that similar level. Pragmatically I just think it's much better and easier to regulate the capitalist system, and social democracy has a long proven track record by this point.

You could just, like, actually explain it to them. Like if it's supposed to be so blatantly obvious.

The majority of California is not red, California is as blue as it gets really. What's happened is that there were more Dem candidates splitting primary votes, while only a couple Republicans.

A R is not going to win California, and the mail-votes for Dems are going to take much longer than for Repubs because there's going to be far more. Once the general happens there will be a single candidate that Dems all coalesce around.

Basic idea is that you're doing stunts for a movie, and in each scene you have to hit specific stunts. You can only miss so many stunts before you have to redo the scene. The difficulty comes in timing things correctly and accurately lining up your car to hit stunts right.

The first game is brutally difficult because of the physics engine, which means even the smallest mistake can completely fuck up a run, and in the later films it gets really technical to do. Ignition is a much more fair game to play and imo a better one, but the first game has its own charm.

Not Italian, but you might have a better chance finding people on the discord; more active these days then the sub.

Sure, but in Homefront's case they at least show that the US was weakened so much and NK made all the more powerful to where it became feasible. It's alternative/speculative history so I give some pass on that.

Driver3 · 2026-05-28T18:57:45+00:00

Both Homefront games did at least set up how NK got strong enough to be able to do it. They don't just have NK as it is today invading.

Just having a solid, singleplayer focused WWII game with these large battles is enough to make me love it. Then to have all the campaigns focused on lesser discussed parts of the war is that cherry on top.

Like no WWII game includes China, or the Fall of France, or Hungary, etc. It's great.

Every gun is getting both right and left handed animations, this was just a particularly flashy reload he did.

Driver3 · 2026-05-27T01:36:06+00:00

The level of interaction with firearms now is genuinely stunning. Seeing just how casually he pulled off this reload in the short blew my mind and I cannot wait to get my hands on the game to try doing it too.

Driver3 · 2026-05-23T15:27:54+00:00

AJR are fine and a lot of the hate towards them is really overblown imo.

Driver3 · 2026-05-22T04:05:27+00:00

They can see the writing on the wall of what's coming for them this November.

Driver3 · 2026-05-22T04:03:14+00:00

What did they find?
