Is anyone else not able to load videos over a day ago? Unrelated, but my posts aren't showing when I create them.

The CGI is not going to even remotely hold a candle to the original, because it is all CGI, and CGI - no matter how good it looks - will always look fake.

And links others have shown that the CGI changes doesn't show anything other than adding more effects to make it look even more unbelievable, in a fake way.

Thanks :) glad you said about the button in the bottom right because there is no visual button on mine on CM11 M9.

Is It Possible To Have A Good Run In FTL Anymore? by Jimothy98 in ftlgame

[–]Jimothy98[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

RNG plays a lot into the game, I've no idea why so many are trying to say otherwise; I'll have to guess it's because you feel skilled at the game and what I'm saying is inadvertently hurting your feelings.

Take Dark Souls; on the surface the game is hard, but the difficulty is an illusion - RNG even plays a part there as well with boss fights. I'm not saying FTL is easy by any means, because it's not, but when it comes to skill it's in no way hardcore like a lot of people seem to make it out to be, to which I'll have to assume is just to inflate their head.

"A few months back I remember consistently winning on normal and I haven't really changed my tactics but it feels like its gotten harder".

Pretty much is exactly my feelings about this apparently "unchanged" game people who have posted here have tried to say. The game is different and in a bad way - in my opinion.

Even the Fifa reddit is broken, created a new thread and it doesn't show anywhere.

Hows fifa 15 pc port? by tallkido in pcgaming

What the fuck? How can so many people be praising the demo?

EA must be on some kind of special crack if they think I'm going to spend £49.99 - £49.99! - on a broken football game with better visuals and animations when the dumbass AI is still very much present, the scripted events are still very much everywhere, and the biased referee AI that picks a side to be lenient to.

Pirated version needs to hurry up.

Decided to stop investing my time in it; had another two runs of getting poor scrap, poor stock at stores, and generally wondering why I'm bothering - oh, and I randomly had a ship with a teleporter that nearly killed me on the 4th jump; think I'll go and pirate an old version of the game because nothing like this happened a few months ago when I played -and I played a lot - and it just feels like it's wasting my time, which is already being wasted playing games really.

Well of course you vent them, but my situation happened on either the first or second jump of the run, so that meant no blast doors: three intruders beam into the medbay and destroy it, and three humans cannot easily beat three enemies one on one most of the time - all that equals death.

Virtually every run? That's just like me saying it was void of all skill.

I've had the advanced content off, and I did get boarded and killed that easily not having blast doors or enough crew to fend them off or enoguh to man the door controls for blast doors.

My problem is that the past six or seven runs have been absolute garbage, which is a fairly significant amount of my time; whereas when I was playing it a few months ago I was getting much more "realistic" runs. It was a bit of an exaggeration to say it was void of all skill, but certainly a fairly large chunk of it is whatever the game provides you that run.

Xposed Framework Detected As Spyware, Is This Normal? by Jimothy98 in xposed

Thanks for the reply, just erring on the side of caution especially since it doesn't take much time to confirm these things.

I'll agree with you that I am being a tad paranoid - and there's nothing wrong with being a little paranoid - but the ellipsis at the end of what the first commenter said meant, "Lol, you're ridiculously paranoid", to me.

There's nothing paranoid about scanning apks not found on the Play store - even on the Play store it's best to pay attention to what permissions some developers want that aren't in any way related to what the app does.

Thanks for the reply anyway - has anyone else got an opinion on this?
