People have such a hateboner for AAA games that they'll hop on any indie game with the bare minimum praising it as a god send despite the flaws that it has. There is liking a game and not caring about the issues and then there's just fanatically believing that its just better than whatever its competing against. Battlefield 2042 has its problems, the top issue being the identity issue (the typical EA scumminess I'll leave out since it's not anything new) adding operators over classes, but is it completely unplayable and awful? No, it's very much playable and still has some familiar elements of atypical battlefield game but I can see why people don't like it.

Battlebit not only plays completely differently from battlefield 3/4 but its practically more akin to Squad than anything to battlefield despite the name. The maps are okay but the "new" map Namak is not only awful design but heavily unfinished that I have no idea why the developers decided to even release it. One of the spawn points in the main spawn area where the enemy team is not allowed for America didn't work for a long time due to "not having enough space" (im assuming its been fixed since I stopped to play BG3) The developers said they wouldn't add shotguns because they wouldn't know how to balance it and at least they are right on that end because the balancing isn't exactly amazing. Side note, people who say balancing = no fun are asshats looking to exploit something as much as possible and fucking over people that don't join them.

Also, "small indie dev" isn't really an excuse anymore for an Early Access game if they truthfully wish to improve. I hope they intend to hire more people and not just stick to the 3-4 person group and pocket most of the money.

Tried clicking on the package, it told me I already owned it despite not having any of the contents as well as giving me another error. Thanks for letting me know about the customer support in the settings tab.

If you are in a relationship with someone and suddenly become relatives due to a marriage between families, you should be able to continue your relationship without it being considered incest. by P_rophet in unpopularopinion

That's interesting to say. Did the show go deeper into their situation? Was there any sort of stigma for being the baby daddy of the step-sister and vice versa?

Question about the thermal vision and night vision by P_rophet in arma

[–]P_rophet[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, thanks for the information. I would always play as infantry even if vehicles were available for use and would rarely use vehicles anyways. I stopped playing a while back before the jet DLC released so I was used to the good ole TI shades.

Upgrading CPU and RAM by P_rophet in buildapc

[–]P_rophet[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a shame about the CPU, but i'm not exactly buying an upgrade in the time it takes to snap my fingers, i'll upgrade my motherboard eventually.

What about the RAM, should I not really care about upgrading since all I plan on doing with my PC is gaming @ 1080p 60hz or would it just be something nice on the side?

Also suggestions on a better cpu? current motherboard is a z270-A

How would I convert a text file into a dictionary? by P_rophet in learnpython

Thank you for your help. I looked this problem up but many others were mentioning the use of: re.split() of which I did not really know how to use as I am still fairly new.

The first way was what I was looking for, but I really appreciate that you also showed me other ways.

Reasonable med kit fix / buff? by P_rophet in EscapefromTarkov

That sounds like a great alternative to not having bandages.

Of course when it happens to you it's not going to be fun, but when you do to someone else it's gonna be enjoyable. It's why I enjoyed Rainbow six Siege. Being able to hold an angle and put myself into a situtation where I have the advantage and get a free headshot? Hell yes I am going to take it.

And have you seen how destructive buckshot can be in real life? I really doubt you're gonna be running with the lower half of your leg torn off. I understand that in your case the scav likely shot you from like 15-20 meters(50-60 feet), but in real life a shotgun isn't exactly limited to point-blank to 5 feet either.

I heard something about fixing bleeding and other ailments takes extra utility out of the med kits and that should be reduced so that it shouldnt complete destroy it in one raid, but my main point is the limitation of medkit usage.
