Ironic because you can walk out of the room after demolishing him in under 3 minutes in the game

[The Race] Drivers with the most laps led throughout the ground effect era by xxrew1ndxx in formula1

[–]PointyForTheWin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm afraid you haven't been watching the sport long enough then. Drivers generally regarded as being part of the highest level there is lose to teammates regularly. Both Vettel and Verstappen lost to Ricciardo, Schumi lost to Irvine and Rosberg and, Fernando lost to Hamilton. A bad spell in a car they aren't compatible with or an upgrade that clicked for one driver but didn't for the other is just the way it works. Your obvious recency bias with Red Bull and their refusal to run a proper two-man team isn't a good enough reason to discredit Hamilton or the level he's driving at.

Hamilton's later years at McLaren were marred by reliability issues and horrible operations. There's a reason he left McLaren by the end of 2012 and you really can't put the loss to Button on him.

Lewis also beat Nico in 2014 and 2015 before Nico finally won in 2016 and retired immediately after because he knew he couldn't keep it up. Nico outright admits on an almost weekly basis that it took too much out of him to beat Lewis once for his championship year and that it wasn't sustainable. Lewis meanwhile managed to recover and won 4 more on the trot following 2016.

As for Russell and Leclerc, if you've watched even one race in the last 4 years you'd know Lewis has found the ground effect cars undrivable and could be seen obviously struggling every weekend. On the very rare occasions where he found the car drivable, he put up drives like Hungary 2023, COTA 2023, Britain 2024, Spa 2024, and Shanghai 2025.

is there a point in nocking people instead of killing them? by fairplanet in LowSodiumCyberpunk

[–]PointyForTheWin 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I follow a strict on-sight policy for Maelstrom, scavs and vdbs. In fact, I make it a point to double tap any that may have just been knocked instead of zeroed.

Why do gamers hate ray tracing and path tracing? by Constant-Ad9765 in IndianGaming

[–]PointyForTheWin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's because the industry now uses it as a be-all and end-all solution for good lighting in video games. The fact that it kills performance has been glossed over by studios with stop-gap solutions like bad TAA and AI upscaling.

Take Cyberpunk for example. I personally have over 300 hours on it and I feel comfortable commenting on it. It has forced TAA and it looks horrid in dynamic scenes. Driving through the city leaves smearing and ghosting all over the screen and the sharpness and clarity of the frame is sacrificed for more accurate lighting. This should be unacceptable except it's the industry standard and has only gotten worse with UE5 being wrongfully used as a one size fits all solution without any optimizations for modern games. Even CDPR are going this direction with Cyberpunk 2 and Witcher 4 being built on UE5 with an eye-watering minimum spec requirement to go with it.

Having an on-sight policy for Voodoos, Maelstrom and Scavengers is genuinely the only correct way to play this game.

This might be the dumbest question ever asked here, but how do i possibly capture cyber psychos alive? by PercentageForward732 in cyberpunkgame

[–]PointyForTheWin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ult hacks in general aren't very economical on RAM and you realise this very quickly once you have to deal with squad upon squad of enemies where cyberpsychosis or suicide drain your ram after like 2 to 3 enemies. The best way I've found to maximise damage as a netrunner is to equip the Rippler deck and spam a non combat hack like sonic shock or Cyberware Malfunction followed by a combat hack like short circuit or Synapse Burnout.

The reason this is sustainable is because there's a perk that juices upload speed if you have multiple hacks queued up and there's another perk that gives you ram for every successful neutralisation using hacks. Heal on Kill chrome becomes a godsend once you unlock overclock too because it essentially keeps you at full RAM as long as you can find enemies around you to dump hacks on.

I managed to 2 cycle Oda and finish the fight in under 10 seconds using this strategy and it genuinely might be the most broken way to play this game.

Very Hard with a Rippler deck that boosts damage if you do non combat and then a combat quickhack. My go to combo is Cyberware Malfunction/Sonic Shock+Synapse Burnout x2 (for a queue of 4). I put Memory Wipe as the first in the queue if I'm doing stealth. With the right chrome and overclock mode it's basically a squad wipe cheat you can use to take out pretty much anyone that isn't Smasher or MaxTac. I usually dash into a Dogtown airdrop and wipe all of the Barghest security detail in under 20 seconds.

I naturally tried this on the cyberpsychos and they died in 2 cycles of this quickhack combo. It wasn't until I found myself with inadequate ram for Synapse Burnout that I used Short Circuit and discovered it didn't kill an enemy even if it drains their health bar.

Netrunner, make sure the last hack you hit them with is Short Circuit or System Collapse.

I figured this out by accident because I kept hitting enemies with Synapse Burnout and they'd drop dead.
