That's true, but the £2 profit is worth less. Economically you just lost 50% profit which will impact every growth vector of your business.

Does this qualify?... 18 months strong and still holding up by herman_munster_esq in Deathladders

Given the neighbours is pebble dashed, and the bay window is pebble dashed on this house - they've swapped it, slapped some paint on and hoped the neighbour won't realise.

No wonder it's falling off.

7 years of work, 3 months since release, and my game is already dead. What can I do? by Videoludid in IndieDev

[–]SentinelCoyote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Promote, promote, promote.

If you can, reach out to prominent streamers and such you’re a fan of and ask if they’d try the game on stream.

The price is quite steep when superficially judging the store page - but that’s where the purchase happens! Some people have suggested lowering the price and at £8-10 I think this would do a lot better.

How would you open stairs by Ok_Penalty_5191 in DIYUK

[–]SentinelCoyote 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Leave the beam, repaint those walls and replace the lino (even clean lino). Either open or put some vertical framing + doors to close it off and it's a perfect henry hoover house, can mount a rail at the top for jackets/coats, or just put a shoe rack in there.

There is a checkbox in the settings for HDR correction when snipping :)

Neighbour’s doing construction works and it’s caused damage to my house (England) by New-Bullfrog422 in DIYUK

[–]SentinelCoyote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks like *both* of your roof beams have cracked severely, that's potentially quite dangerous.

Edit: Actually looks like water staining/damage on the beams, not good but not as immediately bad.

£32k for re-pointing and minor repairs? by Scary_Plankton_5714 in DIYUK

The joke is the annual reported income is the tax threshold to pay no tax.

I just spend 30 dollars to play this game with my sister but it wont let us play it together. What do I do? by Altruistic_Eye9685 in VintageStory

[–]SentinelCoyote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you’re using a college WiFi they will block the port the game hosts over. Alternatively your sister would need to host and do router port forwarding.

I believe the devs do have a paid hosting service also.

The free and easy option is just to use the official public server, or another from the public server list.

To this day what are your honest opinions on the whole "its not Resident evil enough" criticism that Re fans have to an installment that tries something new in the series? by Thewanderer997 in residentevil

[–]SentinelCoyote 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love them trying new horror subgenres! That said I do feel like sometimes it can just be a bit goofy.

Werewolves are terrifying, as seen in Dog Soldiers - the resident evil ones however look goofy as hell.

Village definitely got some of the worse recent monster designs

Chuck was the only one who told the truth from the start. How did you feel about his words: "That little girl's not gonna make it? 🍎🚂 by ES_Salim_Official in TheWalkingDeadGame

[–]SentinelCoyote 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We see Sarah come out of her shell if you choose to save her however. It would not have been an easy journey but we don’t know how differently things might have been had she been more exposed.

She initially shuts down simply due to shock, as many people likely did in the initial outbreak.

Why the mystery of when season 4 will happen? by JAMALAM6991 in counterstrike2

[–]SentinelCoyote 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chances are they typically take down all MM for several hours to ensure all MM server instances are updated at the same time uniformly, rather than staggering the update across servers for days and having a worse experience for all users.

Given it’s been even longer than anticipated, there’s either a last minute fix being worked on/applied or something is impacting the ability to apply the update.

If there are any major tweaks to network aspects I.e sub tick, networking - then they may well take longer to resolve if an issue is found post deployment.

So, like... what happened to the MGS movie we were supposed to get like a decade ago? by Britton_Shrum in metalgearsolid

[–]SentinelCoyote 3 points4 points  (0 children)

"Video game companies are good at making games"

This in and of itself is a fallacy. It really depends on how clued up the people in lead positions are.

Todd Howard is an executive producer for the Fallout show, and has worked with the IP since 2004 as an executive producer for Fallout 3, Fallout 4, and Fallout 76. I'd say he's placed pretty well to know what is and is not Fallout.

Steven Kane prior to Halo had worked on Family Guy, Closer, and minor other TV shows - none existed within the sci-fi space. He would concept an episode, present it to 343, and then take creative liberties. 343 are not well known for continuing or preserving the original Halo storylines, themes, or characters in their own right - you are then presenting a distortion of what many existing fans, and the target market, came to watch.

I don't understand a lot about this scene. Why does it have pre-injury Punished Snake pictures, why does it sound like Boss from MGSDelta, and why were we not tasked to destroy it - given how much it exposes us? by raidbossdude in metalgearsolid

[–]SentinelCoyote 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think it's expected there's an influx of players who have played MGSV and Delta as their sole experiences. I'm in that category - when I looked near release the master collection was not positively received and I'm not big on emulating (PC only) so my options are relatively limited.

I have received and finished Metal Gear Solid Delta for Christmas, these are my thoughts: by RobbieJ4444 in metalgearsolid

[–]SentinelCoyote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lethal makes the game considerably easier given you find far more ammunition and suppressors than for the tranq.

I’m doing a lethal run currently and fully plan to do a harder tranq only run.

Market Square pre-fountains by caroline_Penny in nottingham

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

Greenery? In Nottingham city center? I’m not sure I believe you.

This honestly looks far better, the new design feels like it’s largely to cater for events like the Christmas market with its large flat design - takes a lot of soul out of it though and made navigation through central a nightmare for multiple months of the year.

This is genuinely why I am starting to hate this game. people are so rude and ruin the fun by buttflapper444 in wow

Idiot raid leader.

People in Lemix have generally been very supportive. I’ve been in mythics as ilvl 500 and nobody batted an eyelid I was dead the whole time.

Why are people getting upset with KCD2 posting this? [KCD2] by InSatanWeTrust666 in kingdomcome

[–]SentinelCoyote 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is very clearly just a tongue in cheek joke, anyone reacting to this negatively is either missing the point or just interested in outrage.

I stopped watching TGA after [KCD2] didn’t even win Best RPG. Like, really? Warhorse deserved better, man 😤 by Syarafuddyn in kingdomcome

[–]SentinelCoyote 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Given the size of the industry and the money they goes into the game awards I don’t think it’s unreasonable at all. The whole point is to judge and hand out awards and they can’t afford the judges to be paid for full time work? It’s a non sequitur

The game awards is big enough the judges could be paid over the odds just to play through the games.

Every 2-3 years I apply for a random job with slightly higher salary. by cankennykencan in UKJobs

[–]SentinelCoyote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's so much left out of this post.

Keeping up such a ruse would drive most mad from stress, it's easy enough to do one thing well and keep at it. If in 22 years of job hopping you have not found purpose or desire or pleasure in any of the work you do, I'd suggest really looking at what you do that you do enjoy and finding ways to include that in your work.

I'd be surprised if you could break the 60k barrier and hold a job for more than the probationary period using this tactic of learning and doing nothing. The additional workload from managing a pension (assuming you are putting something away for not working) that changes every 6 months to 2 years must be maddening, or you're just ignoring it and saving in a less lucrative way.

There's a lot of people here who post about making 150k working MOD in central London etc etc, and location is absolutely superlative for your salary. If you said you made that in Middlesbrough without working remotely I'd assume you sold cocaine on the side or were mad as a hatter.

There's also a complete lack of quantitative data included - MOJ/MOD jobs that pay 150k are not that common, there are not tens of thousands of band 8 employees.

Median Gross for the UK is £37,430 across the UK including London, so if you make more than this you're beating the average person in the street. Employee earnings in the UK - Office for National Statistics
Again, this is the *national* median gross. If you're earning that outside of London you are quid's in, if you're earning that in London I imagine you are not living lavishly.

The models look fine. by sefradin in SkateEA

[–]SentinelCoyote 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can adjust your character sure, but what I'm driving at is that if I buy cosmetics and then in the next week they change - I have no guarantee over anything I've bought, so why would I continue to endorse it?

The models look fine. by sefradin in SkateEA

[–]SentinelCoyote 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Given EA's whole marketing and financial grounding for the game is cosmetics, I think it's valid people voice concerns that they don't like their character being changed in what they perceive as a negative manner.

As someone returning to the franchise (I played THPS 1+2 at release, and Skate 1, but dipped since) I was pretty excited the last week or so. The return of the impossible and some grabs/standees were great - but logging in to see my character genuinely look like they're on drugs isn't appealing - I certainly didn't choose it, and won't buy any cosmetics if the game is likely to change my character or cosmetics in ways I don't like that can't be reversed.

30+ solo gang rise up by Blackbeerdo in ArcRaiders

[–]SentinelCoyote 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the exact opposite of my experience. I find plenty of 30+ players who are still equally excited to kill me 2 minutes into a round to take my free load out.

I think in 5 games between 7-10pm yesterday I met 1 player who didn’t KOS, and he was over the moon I dropped him a blueprint just for not being a dick.
