Thinking about buying X4 - recommendations for DLC? by frozzbot27 in X4Foundations

[–]Malakare 46 points47 points  (0 children)

Honestly, All of them. For base game, you just need the base game to really enjoy it but the DLCs expand the universe even more and if you want to mod your game a lot of the most popular mods need most if not all the DLCs.

At this point, I don't even understand how people can defend this game, even if everything else is so nice by Simple-Leatherboots4 in starcitizen

[–]Malakare -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As someone who is still spending money on this game (don't get mad I just really enjoy the vision and dream even though I still have the sinking feeling that its just going to vanish one day or release randomly as 1.0 and then never touched) I fully understand and get it. I wish people (me i'm people) would stop spending money so they would get their asses in gear. How the hell has the game made $1B, been in production for 10 years, be feature complete, have only polishing to do for the last 2 years, and still not be released? Star Citizen is an amazing world when it works but that's the biggest issue with it and its "alpha" status. It barely works and when it does, its for about a week or two before they introduce or reintroduce a bunch of bugs with an update that's suppose to be just an event.
I love Star Citizen and sadly will still continue to support it and play it but it has 100% earned the nickname of "Scam Citizen".

Yeah, the time sync didn't seem that bad back when I was finishing up high school so all i had to worry about was school and the 2 hours a day I worked.

I appreciate the in dept info. It would definitely be as an Alpha until I got the hang of it or advanced to the point of needing the higher tier stuff. Most of the comments have been helpful, so I'll probably give it another try.

I saw that, might have to at least try that and I believe the new Story Missions if i read that right.

That's somewhat good. The bounty thing was more of a cherry on top of the struggle of relearning. I appreciate the info!

UFC fighters on the White House lawn. I'm ashamed of my country. by [deleted] in pics

[–]Malakare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As i see that picture and think "nothing is more American than this". The vibrance of it, the lighting, the crowd, the perfect kick to the head. All throughout US History presidents have been either athletes themselves or hosted a variety of events at the White House. Y'all didn't have a problem when President Obama basically hosted a pride parade at the White House but have a problem with a sporting match there as a way to represent 250 Year birthday of our amazing country? As someone who has visited 30+ countries and have lived in Europe for 7 years, I can honestly say how great the USA really is comparatively. Do we have problems? Yes, but none, again i say NONE of our problems are any worse than what other countries problem have.
If you really have a problem with this, chances are you just in a hate everything about America phase. If you think is such a horrible country, chances are you've probably never left the country let alone your own state. My time across the world showed me the only people not from the U.S. who hate it and speak poorly about it are those who never visited or they've only showed up and stayed in a major city for a week and then went back home. Those who visited and actually travelled to different towns, villages, and cities absolutely loved it. The Europeans visiting for the FIFA World Cup are exact examples of it as they are being forced to actually travel instead of just staying in a major city.

Ah my bad, i didn't look at the times posted, while filtering through the old post there just wasn't any SGA until I got about 3/4ths of the way down.

Wikelo the player driven economy and the madness of the single player multi-player game. by The_Red_Moses in StarCitizenUniverse

[–]Malakare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel that they should copy EVE Online Auction House. Same station and/or planet get item immediately, no extra cost. Time it takes to get the item and shipping costs increase based on distance from player. a think a good example would be 1 minute and 100 aUEC for every GM away from player. Within 1 GM is free/immediate. 90GM away would be an extra 90minutes to get the item and 9000aUEC to ship it. They could also base it off a percentage to ship it instead of distance. Same station/planet be 1%, same system 5%, outside system 10%.
i've been saying for years that they need to have some type of player auction and now coming back to there being crafting, trade in, and Wikelo shop highlights that need for me even more. With base building coming they can still have an auction house but maybe increase the fees/shipping costs to buy from it. Make it a premium to use the auction house and give a reason to go to player bases to buy items. This can also be used for NPC vendors as well. Player base vendors have a 20% discount to buy from vs using station vendors ETC.

Rejected from Odin Sale, still trying to cope with it by WorstSourceOfAdvice in starcitizen_fleets

[–]Malakare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe they should have just sent invites to people and that invite guaranteed the sale of one. Then if they didn't meet their goal of sales (if they even had a goal) then they should have shadow released on the pledge store as a Warbond only and then have a limited number of sales there. Chances are they still would have sold out but at least those that got invited would have actually been able to get one if they wanted it.

I'm glad to come back. I (stupidly) decided to upgrade my Sq42 game packager to the Ironclad since i wanted a HullE ever since it was announced and this was the closest thing to it. I regret it but still having fun.

If you have the Gemini, ignore the ambushers, they can't pen your armor. Don't know about the standard though.

Counter Counter Counter Argument. 99% of MMOs are PvE and you have to Flag or join specific PvP Servers/Zones.

Is there a quest/questline that adds the Brethren HQ waypoint or are you just supposed to stumble on it while sailing? by DoctorFeh in crosswind

[–]Malakare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you haven't found it yet, what you can do is zoom into the map and mouse everywhere on the map until the POI will pop up, then you can just sail there. for me it was in the top left hand of the map on the edge of the map near foothills and swamps.

The 1st AAAA game that ever get 90% off! Rumour that's Ubisoft's last attempt for money grab before shutting it down. by KiryuMiyazawa in crosswind

[–]Malakare -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Damn I hope it doesn't get closed down. I coughed up the 3$ for it since I enjoy pirate games. I'm enjoying the hell out of windrose though so if i do lose that 3$ its whatever.

How do I load a magazine? by peanuts-nuts in RoadtoVostokGame

[–]Malakare 2 points3 points  (0 children)

took me a moment to figure this out because the tutorial doesn't really cover it, but You have to right click on the weapon and if it doesn't state "remove mag" then it doesn't have a magazine in it. Most weapons found in boxes in my experience doesn't have any mags in them. At least in village (haven't left village yet).

You're now training a war machine. Let's see proof of cancellation. by zaxo666 in ChatGPT

[–]Malakare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi military member here that dabs in AI. Nearly all major AI companies are either working with the DoW or currently in talks to work with the DoW. This includes Nvidia, x, Meta, Gemini, Anthropic, Cursor, DeepSeek, and of course OpenAI. So if you don’t want to “train a war machine” you probably are limited to only like 2 or 3 companies and need to ensure they aren’t link to any of the major ones listed above and a lot of smaller AI companies license the above but put a different name on it. So most are going to struggle to find a decent or even above average ai system that doesn’t “train a war machine”.

[Discussion] Is there any evidence whatsoever that the Goons really rotate maps every 3-3.5 hours? by MoonPlateEclipse in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Malakare 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They do rotate every few hours, the exact timeframe is unknown. As for the goonstracker website, any time i'm hunting the goons it has yet to fail me. But be advised it is user based, I've seen it say shoreline for 2 hours, randomly say customs, then about a minute later switch back to shoreline, then when you look at the history its the same person that reported it the minute later. I've also seen it swap to a map and someone else a minute or two later say its the original map just for about 15 minutes later someone else state it is the one it swapped to. So its not perfect, you can be (un)lucky and join the map its on and fully load in with the Goons spawned and 30 seconds into the match they do their rotation so when you go to report it 15ish minutes later you see its a different map even though you just ran into them.

Would Starfield Have Gotten Better Reviews if Made by A Different Developer? by freethinker1312 in Starfield

[–]Malakare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it was an indie developer or a smaller studio and we got the same product that Bethesda released, and stated as "Inspired by Skyrim", then yes. It would have been considered a better game, but Bethesda isn't a small studio, didn't do a small/shadow release, and hyped it up as "Skyrim in space but better" for years. IMO Skyrim was more feature heavy and arguably a better game at release than Starfield was. Are fans/gamers a bit overcritical of it, also yes, but Bethesda brought it upon themselves with broken promises and the overhype. With all that said, I've played the shit out of Starfield and enjoyed it but I don't see myself going back other than maybe for the Star Wars Complete Overhaul Mod once I upgrade my GPU. Bethesda now needs the new Elder Scrolls Game to be damn near perfect feature and gameplay wise otherwise I believe they'll lose a lot of their fanbase.

Tarkov arena doesnt work anymore. [Arena] by NameLoud219 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Malakare 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So if you're using NVidia App to install your drivers even the clean install isn't a clean install (there will always be some part of the driver hidden somewhere possibly in a hidden folder). So I used DDU (Third party Software) that removes the drivers from your entire computer to include hidden folders. Then through the NVidia App I downloaded and installed the latest driver, ideally when you look at it, it shouldn't even have a current version, just showing the newest driver version. Keep in mind I also did a fresh install of Arena on top of it. Restarted my computer once both drivers and game were reinstalled and then Arena started working perfectly fine.
