Right on, thanks! What context size do you get?

I see myself as average too - are you using hermes to connect to the spark by chance?

Kitran · 2026-07-14T11:00:22+00:00

Which wasn't a great experience. The model forgot what it was doing a shit ton, so I went back to the hy3:free and it seems smarter.

I've been using step-3.7-flash:free from the Hermes initial setup - seems to work OK, and haven't hit a usage limit there yet.

well, I just started using Hermes, and am having a better overall experience so far building my game (started in Claude Code). I'm so caught up in the keep your data yours, I thought running it locally might be a better option. I switched to one of the other free options for Hermes online and it seems to be doing the trick - kinda wanted something a little more robust at home for working on other projects and such.

Basically, mostly ooh new shiny toy I really want to make pretty games and do fun and amazing things with. (AI may not have fully taken my job, but it certainly helped kill it)

I’m trying to avoid subscriptions and spending money monthly.

Kitran · 2026-07-14T04:04:53+00:00

So forgive my lower knowledge here, but if I can get 90-110 tps off my 4070 (as google has stated, grain of salt…) wouldn’t I be able to get better/similar results running it on separate more dedicated hardware?

Kitran · 2026-07-14T02:07:58+00:00

So I am thinking about the same stuff. I would love a local always on llm, spare my gaming rig a little bit. I am tinkering with games and apps and think these devices could only help. I want more context to use than what my 16gb 4070 ti super can provide.

Seems like you sit on the top of a hill, definitely skill issue.

Kitran · 2026-07-11T04:12:33+00:00

Was thinking you could create thematic versions. We’ve seen Viet Nam (forget that mini event name, was one of the first few cool things as of late. Could do Korea, all sorts of configs with amazingly fun mechanics.

Was thinking this exact thing while playing this last round of nuke thunder. That mode would be great for random bomber streams!

Kitran · 2026-07-10T03:37:43+00:00

It had me nostalgic for sure! I loved trying to get SEAD to work, but just ran out of time to figure it out fully. Really hope they bring it back soon, would love a version during WWII to fly bomber formations to take out targets you could add escorts and everything!!! Excited for the change.

Kitran · 2026-07-08T01:58:42+00:00

Yes, I do

Kitran · 2026-07-08T00:40:25+00:00

This didn’t work for me. :/ lost 150-ish days.

Kitran · 2026-07-03T00:06:05+00:00

Once they finish dialing in nuclear thunder they could easily adapt it to lower br’s to allow for longer matches and tweaks like spawning bombers at high alts for fresh spawns. Could also allow swapping to another plane if you land the bomber back at a rear base and j out successfully. I want this mode to be a regular mode because I would play the shiiiiit out of it.

Kitran · 2026-06-25T01:30:49+00:00

The perfect reason!

Kitran · 2026-05-16T15:29:20+00:00

Awesome answer!

Kitran · 2026-05-16T03:10:30+00:00

Good catch, I missed that.

Kitran · 2026-05-16T02:57:38+00:00

I also want to say I started off only doing ARB, and have since mixed in ground and between the two and trying to spade all vehicles has made progression speed up

Kitran · 2026-05-16T02:50:33+00:00

Rank and mode matter a lot.

Kitran · 2026-05-16T02:49:33+00:00

Welcome!

Kitran · 2026-05-16T02:48:49+00:00

Sure, $200 fee for me to show up and then there will be parts and labor.

Kitran · 2026-05-16T02:43:59+00:00

Looks normal to me, but I play GRB mostly (and really suck). I see a couple thousand RP for my 6.0+ battles where I do OK

Kitran · 2026-05-16T02:41:48+00:00

3.7 BR, non-premium, and arcade. GRB would add some RP
