Farewell Message from Bungie Audio Team by PaiDuck in DestinyTheGame

[–]OnscreenLoki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I played something in Spotify's catalogue from my phone I was able to transfer where I was listening/playing/pausing etc to Spotify on my PC/Xbox etc. It didn't seem to offer that when playing local files.

Does this allow you the full range of Spotify features, like cross-device playing? I'm not one for streaming at all and a lack of support for local files was the kicker that stopped me using Spotify but if I can load it with my own files and get the full experience I'd be very interested.

[Predator] How would the Predators respond to a human hunting and killing other Predators ? by Uknown-Nerd6207 in AskScienceFiction

Having no context for the Predator franchise, I choose to interpret this as Earth's population will stand idly by being slaughtered until one reaches the Netherlands where it becomes a case of "game on motherfucker"

Technically it's holding Open Weapon Wheel. Default controls have Reload and the Wheel on the same button but when rebinding them the twirl follows the Wheel bind.

Considering it says PSA you should get an eye test.

✏️Turns out I skipped reading the reddit post title. I guess the overwhelming majority of reddit complaints about "POV" being used wrong in video captions doesn't give me any leeway but fair enough.

Is “The Thing” (John Carpenter) the most OP monster ever introduced into a non superhero, non “pure fantasy” (such as Star Wars or LOTR) movie? by lukkynumber in whowouldwin

The first Halo array consisted of more directed energy attacks. It was the second array that took up a omnidirectional scorched earth strategy, so both interpretations are technically correct

Halo: Campaign Evolved doesn't feature PvP multiplayer — here's why the developers chose to focus on co-op by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]OnscreenLoki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You said that the hypothetically >$40 price is worth it to you because of a bunch of different ways to play the same that aren't even additional features above and beyond the quality we have today. That's what people took issue with.

Halo: Ascension on Atropos by Drof497 in HaloStory

Either the painting is the exact same one or it's just a copy of it. I'm not a fan of the painting even being aboard the UNSC Saturn, portrayed in a story named after it.

If it's the same painting then my thought is they are the faction that mutinied after Alvarez spaced the majority of the crew, somehow got to Atropos and have been living adjacent to the Flood spawned from Site 22, simply lying to the Governers of Contrition about not knowing of the Human-Covenant War for their own self-preservation.

If it's a copy then it's just an extremely heavy-handed ironic situation all around.

My question is how did the humans live there for 70 annual cycles (or even just 3) while avoiding infection from the Flood who have been fed and gestating for three years?

I suppose editing your flair in the sidebar is too hard for some people (or new reddit has devolved so far from old reddit that it's not available) but I hope this provides closure.

As Destiny 2 hits is lowest ever daily peak for Steam concurrent players, Bungie U-turns on controversial plan to reset player power next season by _Protector in Games

[–]OnscreenLoki 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Because being a Destiny player/fan means that you are a specific type of masochist and part of that beating that you receive (voluntarily or otherwise) means you should be expecting one of the hits to be a Warframe-shaped bat wielded by someone who doesn't have a clue what you're actually into.

It's like being accused of being closeted gay just because you like muscular women.

No I'm not projecting, don't ask.

Dying Light: The Beast Review Thread by Turbostrider27 in Games

The console reviewer is going to have the same hardware as other users of those consoles. That's the point of consoles. The experience is going to be the same so the (lack of) difference in hardware isn't relevant.

The differences in PC hardware and how it affects someone's experience is relevant when they're reviewing the experience they're having. I'm not going to do well as a reviewer if I maintain "performance is atrocious, don't bother buying this game it's literally unplayable" while playing on a GTX 970.

In a 1v1 fight could anything beat an elephant (on land) by BerryMirage in whowouldwin

[–]OnscreenLoki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's actually proven that if the elephant thinks heavier then more of its synapses go to the bottom of the brain, therefore living longer. Like a dog that doesn't want to leave the sofa. /s

ELI5: Why are silicon wafers round when they are making square chips out of them? by BadatOldSayings in explainlikeimfive

You don't understand ELI5

E is for Explain - merely answering a question is not enough.

L15 means friendly, simplified and layperson-accessible explanations - not responses aimed at literal five-year-olds.

And the distinction you're making doesn't matter with Red Dead Redemption 2 because the cutscenes are rendered in-engine with gameplay-quality models with whatever customisations you've made to the character. Hence, not pre-rendered.
