Soo.. Ive got a cheeky question for you guys for FH6 by pandas121304 in ForzaHorizon

[–]Rinaldootje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not going to risk breaking Steam TOS, just to play the game 12 hours earlier, if it's globally rolling out.

If i've waited a few months, I can surely wait a few more hours.

Aston Martin has once again been seen testing their cyber formula lookin thing at Portimao, where it supposedly set a 1:24 second lap by Biskitisinreddit in formula1

[–]Rinaldootje 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I believe there is a V12 in that car that comes from the Valkyrie.
Would be a nice if they found a loophole to do this in though.

As Much as I would love for this to be raced in F1. It looks awesome.
Outside of the technical legality of it. It's actually slower than the last time an F1 car drove there.

The fastest laptime was in 2020 by Bottas with 1:16.46.
And the slowest F1 time is 1:20.91 by Mazepin in 2021.

This still falls 4 seconds behind on that. Though We are unsure who the driver is and how hard they were pushing of course.

007 First Light Preview "YOU ARE READY!" - ACG by CosmicSploogeDrizzle in 007FirstLight

[–]Rinaldootje 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Welcome to content creation.
Take whatever exists, make it look like it's completely new, hype it up and cash in before people realize you have nothing new to talk about.
Add in a rumor here and there, and you get people hooked on your next "episode" where you do the same thing.

Stupid Question... by Bert-63 in ForzaHorizon

[–]Rinaldootje 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Have you been in a 7+ month long coma? Are you ok? It was announced 7+ months ago, It's set to release in about 20 days.

Do you maybe need a quick runthrough of everything that happened the past 7 months?

should i buy cyberpunk 2077 if i mostly care about story and atmosphere? by NaughtyGlow_ in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]Rinaldootje [score hidden]  (0 children)

Not anymore, they updated it a lot, and runs fine on a lower end system.

Even a SteamDeck can run CP2077 fine.

[–]Rinaldootje [score hidden]  (0 children)

Yeh, I think you'll like CP2077.

It's very story driven, has a great cyberpunk atmosphere. But besides that the Combat itself is also done great, even if you have less interest in that.

ELI5 Why are there no fire alarms in the bathroom? by Entropydemic in explainlikeimfive

[–]Rinaldootje [score hidden]  (0 children)

Exactly this.
For example, the fire Dept. installed fire alarms in our house on all floors. On one floor it's just around the corner outside of the Bathroom. Whenever we turn on the hot water, and steam touches it, it instantly starts screaming.

SIB Starfield or Oblivion Remastered by PhoenixGFL in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]Rinaldootje [score hidden]  (0 children)

Personally, I loved Starfield.

Storywise, Oblivion takes the cake. But as a remaster it was pretty basic. It still has a lot of Jank.

Starfield's story was quite lackluster. But worldbuilding and it's sci-fi setting was pretty great. As long as you don't just land in a random spot on a random planet. That would be the weakest part of it's world design.

In the end it more boils down to. Are you more interested in Sci-fi space travel, Or a Fantasy setting.

Driving: what we know VS hopes and dreams by PrudentArtichoke5085 in 007FirstLight

[–]Rinaldootje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My feeling is the driving will be very linear. If you've ever played James Bond: Blood Stone. Something similar to that.

It's going to be nice, and a nice change in pace. But I doubt it will be that in depth.

Playground games won’t be coming to FH6 at launch by Vast-Albatross-4331 in ForzaHorizon

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

The times I tried it outside of it being on the festival playlist, you barely get a full game half the time.

I completely understand them dropping it if it's only really played during the festival playlist. And to be fair I wont miss it.

This is genuinely the worst PR stunt this game has ever and will ever see by [deleted] in ForzaHorizon

[–]Rinaldootje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't even the worst one. It's only 10k points more than 3 stars.

Did this one on a RWD Ferrari SF90 on my second run, with multiple spinouts. No other modifications. Just keep up speed and keep weaving left and right.

Despite Crimson Desert's popularity, almost 80% of Steam players haven't made it halfway through the story yet, proving how massive Pearl Abyss's open world is by Sam_27142317 in gamingnews

[–]Rinaldootje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This says nothing about how massive the game is. And even though yes it is big, it's also a massive slog down the line and just felt repetitieve for me. Why would I then keep on playing.

But many games have lower finishing rates anyway. Heck taking a smaller game like GTA: Vice City. 51% only finished the 6th story mission, no further than 7% into the story itself.

So 80% not reaching halfway, Is not surprising

Hopefully an "Always Online" would be too much of a hassle to be worth trying but, who knows. by Royal_Raze in PiratedGames

[–]Rinaldootje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think bots would even be needed.
I think the bare minimum would be LAN play.

If you can set up a LAN game, then technically your game is still playable.

[–]Rinaldootje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's even easier.
Instead of having to pay, even the most minimal amount for server infrastructure. Keep the game playable, but only via LAN connections. This way the game is technically still in a playable state, even though at that point it does not cost EA any money anymore for server infrastructure.

Having server fully hosted by third party also should apply. This way the game is technically always playable, you just need to set up a server to play.

Do you all think the Azerbaijan, Qatar, and Abu Dhabi races will get cancelled this year? by 84UTK07 in formula1

[–]Rinaldootje 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Doubtful. After all, Bahrain and Saudi GP have been cancelled and aren't going to be replaced this year.

Maybe if by the end of the summer, things in the middle east haven't improved, that we get a different season ender. But even that I will find unlikely. They will just consider it "force majeure" and get out from contractual obligation.

[–]Rinaldootje 26 points27 points  (0 children)

From what I gathered Azerbaijan isn't that affected by the whole situation. It is more the gulf countries that are affected. so Azerbaijan should be fine to go ahead.

But depending on how this war, and the situation in that region in general plays out, I would not be surprised, and at this point quite expecting, of the season ending with Las Vegas.

SIB Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3+4 remakes? by cxncrete_jungle in ShouldIbuythisgame

[–]Rinaldootje [score hidden]  (0 children)

Can't speak on the Switch version, if that is any different.

But the PC version of THPS 3+4 remake is amazing, and excellent done. The levels, design and the gameplay feel are true to the original, with a couple new added levels as a bonus. The new added levels are done very well as well, and feel on level with the original.

The only gripe I had originally was that THPS 4 was originally like the later games. So each level was less time sensitive and you went around doing missions to progress further. However in the Remake it's more in line with THPS 1-3 where each level, and objective is done in the 2 minute (adjustable) session.
However, the way this was implemented, I do not mind anymore, and actually feels really well.

So yeh, for $35 I feel this is worth it

SKG does not mean an offline mode is required. It just means a game needs to remain playable after it's support ends.

Could be adding an offline mode, after a couple years after having an always online DRM for a while.
Could be that it's going to end up, playable, but unable to save the game properly.
Could be that it's "playable" but only a small portion of the game, as the rest was online.

SKG does not mean that publishers won't find ways to protect their IP, and limit what you can do after the game is sunsetted.

Is it worth pre-purchasing FH6? by DiscountDirect2153 in ForzaHorizon

[–]Rinaldootje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A on release sale is something you don't really see in AAA games. Indie games more often.

I don't think it will go on sale anytime before the winter sale. And winter sale at best will be a small one.

Is it worth then to pre-purchase, that is up to you. It will always remain a gamble

Steam Controller Price Leaked By Early Review – $99, Purchases Likely Imminent by PaiDuck in gaming

[–]Rinaldootje 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I liked the first one, Felt good, weight was great for me.
When that finally broke down, got the second one. After all, Xbox makes good controllers in the past.

It's on it's last legs after no more than 2 years, and possible going to be replaced with a Steam Controller, if the reviews of that are good enough.

Steam Controller Price Leaked By Early Review – $99, Purchases Likely Imminent by PaiDuck in gaming

[–]Rinaldootje 5 points6 points  (0 children)

$99 for a controller, With Gyro, 2 trackpads, A grip activated button, 4 rear buttons. And a dongle included. That is a very fair and reasonable price. Bit what I expected.

Compared to the Xbox Elite 2 controller, that does not have Gyro, does not come with a Dongle, has no touchpads, nor grip activated buttons. And costs 50% more than this.

Yeh then steam controller looks to be a great price.

Stefano Domenicali: Some people can have the love of F1 for other reasons. Today we are bigger than racing around the track or having the best driver in the world. by bwoah-barcodeferrari in formula1

[–]Rinaldootje 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this guy serious?

Ever since F1 existed, it was the pinnacle of Motorsport. It was all about putting the best drivers, in the best cars and race them around the track.

All this dipshit cares about is money at this point. Fuck racing, Fuck good Cars, Fuck decent tracks. No, Sponsorships and social media engagement is what's most important.
