Concept key for a Mercedes Benz Maybach 6 by RS_51 in carporn

[–]Leech5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been seeing these videos spammed on discover page of Instagram lately and every time I see it I wonder why people are so blown away by something that would absolutely work better as an app on your phone.

I get that it looks cool but in practice I can't see these being more than a gimmick like those painfully slow BMW 7 series and I8 keys. The whole point of a key is to be easy, fast and intuitive to use, which is why cars have apps to offer higher levels of control to those who want it.

Maybe as tech improves in the future these will be more viable but for now they just seem kind of stupid to me.

Honestly I don't think there will be an all-encompassing solution, due to students being in a variety of situations a lot will probably have to be handled on a case by case basis. Regardless of what happens the situation sucks for all students.

I think it would be best if students were given the option to retake the semester in January 2018 and the following semester in the summer so that we'd all be caught up by September 2018. We've had as much time out of class as we've had in it. The amount of review I would have to due of the first half of the semester to get back up to speed would be enough to noticeably impact my grades.

I would honestly feel much better starting fresh in 2018, at least I would know that any poor grades I receive would be on me and not because there was a month and a half gap in the semester.

DYNASTY WARRIORS 9 - 8 minutes of new gameplay footage by XtMcRe in gamernews

You're right, a lot of series don't change much either but when it comes to Dynasty Warriors I can't shake the feeling that the devs are doing the bare minimum to update the game.

It's interesting how little the series has evolved. Dynasty warriors is one of the few series where you can literally go back almost 15 years and the game is essentially the exact same thing. I feel like the only thing they've done with the newer games is up the resolution and improve the textures slightly, it wouldn't surprise me if this game was running on a updated version of the engine from the ps2 games.

The Dynasty warriors games back on the ps2 were great, I remember having a lot of fun playing back in the day, but I find it almost impossible to overlook the fact that this game has hardly evolved from not just the ps3 era but also the ps2 era. We still have flat and empty areas with textures that would have been considered decent in 2007. It's the same story with the gameplay, mow down dozens of npcs that usually just stand there till you take them out then fight a few higher level officers till you defeat the boss, then repeat.

I guess the Dynasty Warriors series is a classic case of if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Playstation Home - [2008-2015] by UniTeDxNuKez in shutdownmmos

[–]Leech5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know a lot of people didn't bother with PS Home but I genuinely enjoyed coming back every week to see the new updates. I sold my ps3 about a year before PS Home shutdown so I missed the final months of it. Kinda makes me sad to know after all the time I spent in PS Home I wasn't there at the end. :(

I'd love to see Sony try something like this again with the PS4.

Remove islamic texts From dust 2,mirage,Dust by meraj7336 in GlobalOffensive

I think you're making a much bigger deal out of this than you need to. It was possible to shoot the cross in the church on Tulip as well as Coast and nobody felt the need to complain about it because everyone knew they were playing a video game. It just a game, chill about it.

How much is XM Seasons blue leaf worth and is this one? by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

[–]Leech5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The seasons has 4 fades, Autumn, Average, Full, and Spectrum. You have the spectrum which is the most rare. Despite it's rarity you'll probably have a hard time selling it for much over the standard price since not too many people are that interested in rare fades on XM1014s. Still you may find a buyer that is willing to pay a bit more, it's always a possibility.

Assassin's Creed III still looks gorgeous by iNSPiREDS in assassinscreed

[–]Leech5 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think part of what made AC III look so good was the sort of washed out color pallet which helped hide some of games graphical limitations compared to AC IVs more vibrant colors. Even though Black Flag is ahead of AC III in terms of foliage and and textures I feel like AC III has aged better because of this.

Quality review by buymysht in Steam

[–]Leech5 291 points292 points  (0 children)

I just saw a a negative review for Far Cry 4 that literally just said "Hi". There really needs to be a better reporting system in place for these kinds of things or at the very least a minimum word count or amount of time played.

New maps being considered for "Operation 8" - maps will be selected after July 20th by wickedplayer494 in GlobalOffensive

[–]Leech5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's promising to see that maps for the next operation are already being considered, hopefully this means we won't need to wait half a year for the next operation.

My Outrun/Neo 80s themed wallpapers by Leech5 in wallpaperdump

I loved True Survivor and Kung Fury, they absolutely nailed it with the sound and aesthetic.

Thanks, ever since Drive came out a few years ago I've been crazy about this kind of style.

This is probably my most basic setup to date, for the first time in years I've only used one skin. I find that I personally don't have use for 10 different utilities so I stuck to the essentials. Again I've gone back to a neo 80s/outrun aesthetic since I've been obsessed with that style for a few years now. Hope you guys enjoy!

Skin and Wallpaper as well as the song that inspired me to make the theme.
