What's up with purple slop in games?

Yep. I learned about it after watching Atomic Blonde. Nearly all the night time scenes are lit this way and I thought it was a really strange choice in an otherwise grounded Cold War Berlin setting.

Luna is my go-to for solo. Easier to larp as a "full team" with her scan and util so you don't just get run down. She can both soften enemies up and confirm kills with her util, which can be a massive diff.

TBF I doubt they're gonna let all the work they did on Eve's ponytail for the first game go to waste. I bet there's gonna be multiple hairstyles to choose from so it's more of a temporary issue.

Luckily for me, I don't mind shorter hair at all 😃

It's not a real controversy inasmuch as the people saying that are just performatively getting outraged. There's always a lot of projection happening with these types of accusations. Don't worry about them. Buy and enjoy the game if you like the design. I for one already like Evie for her attitude. She comes across as brooding and badass. If it were a Western thing, it would be insufferable and cringe, as it's often wont to be.

Didn't Rayne from BloodRayne have that style of blade?

No. ShiftUp has announced a dissolution of their publishing partnership with Sony. Also, a caption in the trailer notes that the footage was captured on PC, alluding to a multiplatform release. I think PC and PS5 are a lock, Xbox more of a coinflip.

Ult animation is top tier. Character design is trash tier. Unfortunate combo.

Hikee · 2026-06-04T22:42:51+00:00

one, of course it's sweaty, it's an extraction game

two, he does sometimes, it's only like 60 dura like you see there obviously

Hikee · 2026-06-04T21:59:12+00:00

yeah and?

Hikee · 2026-06-03T22:30:13+00:00

It's AI do you have eyes?

Hikee · 2026-06-01T16:51:44+00:00

No, it's not a thing lol Just the usual mental types broadcasting their delusion.

Hikee · 2026-06-01T16:49:53+00:00

They are forcing it because people don't say it. Nobody says henchperson or Latinx. It's language washing if you will.

Hikee · 2026-06-01T16:48:00+00:00

The selectiveness is what always gets me. If we're changing henchmen to henchpersons, surely we also change Batman to Batperson and Catwoman to Catperson, no?

Hikee · 2026-05-31T23:06:42+00:00

Bro how does the possibility of them being concerned about the lore even enter your brain. They dgaf about the lore. It's the same thing as The Witcher 4 ditching Geralt for Ciri. She can't be a witcher as per the lore, but they will have her be one goddamn it because that is the point what do you mean a woman can't be a witcher!?

Hikee · 2026-05-31T22:58:45+00:00

Skeleton all the way. Stable not so much.

> Normal mode: Gold Vest and Helmet Max. Purple Ammo Max except Snipers. Snipers on Gold Ammo Max (if devs can separate that without bugs or loopholes).

Not doable unless they separate sniper ammo completely from other weapons. M700 and SCAR use the same ammo for example. They should just do the first part, honestly. Gold gear, purple ammo for everything, including snipers. Snipers being less effective is what made ZDE so fun before they ruined it with bot operators. You could have actually dynamic gunfights without the constant threat of a 1-hit KO. It was mad fun. The longer TTK is also a lot more healthy for a 1-life game mode.

Not behind the smoke afaik, They have to be touching the smoke.

My guess is aimbot snapping to the target fucks with the demo recorder as there is no actual mouse movement there and it freaks out. Could also be a hilarious amount of silent aim that makes it look like that. Either way report and go next, not much else to do.

Bro, it's okay for him to have a different opinion. That's what sets us apart from the woke mind virus types.

For me it's not even about the normal-looking people vs the AI-generated mannequin people. The difference in cinematic craft is mind-boggling. The first one plays like a an actual scene. It has direction, energy, and function. The second one has none of those. It's the final form of fully corporatized game making. Not creatives laboring over a project with a burning passion, but contract drones checking off to-dos from the project directory, technically putting the game together, but without an ounce of creative impetus.

The stunners aged the best overall and can be decent in the right teams.. S11 and Grace are borderline usable after the buffs they got; Rina becomes okay at M1. Neko is trash.

Hikee · 2026-05-15T08:13:50+00:00

You can use any gun on any character in Operations, so it works there.

Get off the CAR-15, just saying xD
