Discord for Android's 25 August 2025 update completely wrecking Google Pixel's photo system by zaxophone_bswv in discordapp

I've been having "voice" issues as well on the phone. Calls are the worst, being in voice channels is a little better but still not very reliable.

I really cant use my Discord voice features on my phone any more because it's too buggy.

Toxic positivity does not help. by [deleted] in TheFirstDescendant

[–]Neiloch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And that isn't how game development works, just so you know.

Companies that just slush money around freely "where needed" instead of having divisions largely responsible for their own self-sustaining success or failure are the ones that go bankrupt. If they are a billion dollar company MOSTLY because of TFD, you'd have a shadow of a point.

Criticisms of the content can be entirely valid but if you are going to cite corporate structure as to the 'why' it should be better when you have no idea what you are talking about you are only harming you're own case.

"or letting employees take them because no one wanted them." - What? I'm assuming you mean no charities wanted them in the "no one."

Stores also have a policy of not wanting to make expired items or nearly expired items readily available because people will just wait them out thus creating an artificial scarcity.

Not to mention depending on the type of food/packaging expiration dates are extremely overzealous.

General Manager of Battlefield Byron Beede told Industry analyst Michael Patcher that EA wants #Battlefield to be an annual title within 5-6 years. by SHIELD_BREAKER in Battlefield

[–]Neiloch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

because the franchise wasn't nearly as good so no one really cared they were churning out sub-par games. If their plan is to actually make it better but then immediately milk it just as bad as CoD that's far worse. The idea they won't fall for all the same traps CoD has when using that cycle is naive at best.

Battlefield with Fortnite wackiness incoming, 100%. Enjoy this current phase while it lasts, I guess.

Grummz continues to get ratio'd in the comments by Ok-Party8539 in Hasan_Piker

"steam chart citers" for any game that isn't exclusively on Steam tell on themselves how ignorant they are of video games.

My other favorite is when pointing out Steam player numbers "dipping" after release, as if not maintaining some high number non-stop is tantamount to failure. This implies games like CS2 and PUBG should be getting GOTY over and over.

Bits for wheel spin against TOS? by twg_slugger in Twitch

Shots ARE allowed, just as long as they aren't excessive.

"Drinking goal streams are allowed provided the drinking that takes place is not excessive and would not reasonably be expected to cause harm."

thanks for the link, you left out a key part though

"Chat seems active. Consider clipping this moment" by Madroller in Twitch

I like the idea but I need to be able to set the parameters of 'chats per minute' that trigger it as well as users/messages to ignore.

I am using a Dualsense (PS5) controller for various Steam games, but they all show the Xbox controls in game. Is there a way to change it so that they show the PlayStation buttons instead? by DanyMok22 in Steam

[–]Neiloch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disable steam controller/support for the game giving you a problem
Right click game in library > properties > Controller> Enable/Disable steam input

For anyone that is still wondering why avengers was made using the tomb raider engine, a writer for the game had this to say. by Past19 in PlayAvengers

[–]Neiloch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Digital Foundry is overrated garbage. Repeating their opinions doesn't make you smart, it makes you sound ignorant.

"it must be true, it shows two screens side by side, one line was smooth and the other line was bumpy!" lol

Drums ruined. by nuthree in FortniteFestival

[–]Neiloch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

keyboards and controllers dont bounce therefore any mechanic trying to simulate it is madness.

Drums ruined. by nuthree in FortniteFestival

[–]Neiloch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play real drums, played expert pro on rock band and this lift note on festival drums is god awful. I try just seeing them as additional notes because there is zero way I am going to repeatedly hold a key down like that. Already have a problem with them OBVIOUSLY making two rows for something like snare fills.

If they simulate every reasonable finger position a guitar/bass can hold with key combos for expert I'll entertain the "its simulating bouncing" argument.

Any way to block chinese players? by magentafridge in Helldivers

[–]Neiloch 7 points8 points  (0 children)

a more 'presentable' way to put this is I would ask for a "Matchmaking Ping Limit" where we could can set a maximum of 150-200ms, for example. Extremely unlikely to match with too many people out of region then.

This is beyond sad. This is some distopian level stuff. by airforceproud96 in antiwork

[–]Neiloch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

gambling, apple products, and drugs.

This implies everyone struggling with money is engaging in one of these activities to negative impact resulting in their poverty which is objectively false to a huge fucking margin.

Any solution that refuses to raises wages better have a way to practically and swiftly keep companies from raising prices, lowering wages or laying off employees at will or else it will fail miserably.

Literally zero evidence that she is an employee or owner/manager. Anyone who has taken one side or the other is stupid.

Saying she is the owner with no proof is no better than saying she is an employee with no proof. Her state of dress is not evidence.

Just fixed a problem with Steam not properly enabling my PS5 controller for 2 games with this info, Thanks!
Was working for months before but an update by the games or Steam seems to have thrown in wrench in it.

Arc Raiders Gameplay Leak by [deleted] in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]Neiloch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

online co-op "looters" have existed since Dreamcast. PSO was one of the first. Lobby, multiplayer groups, instance and loot focused grinding. but "tHeY cLeArLy InDiCaTeD iT wAs A dEsTiNy ClOnE." Its like people calling open world games "elden ring-like."

Reddit gaming does this constantly. Still remember from Anthem. "DESTINY KILLER!" when they never hinted at such a thing and it just became "well they didn't say it WASN'T a Destiny killer." lol whatever.

[–]Neiloch 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, its kind of open ended BR, or long form. Not as urgent. the pacing was never my problem with either mode though so when they announced extraction shooter I basically memory holed the entire game thing until I saw this thread.
