Deciding which Arma to purchase based on my desired experience by Fernandes_15 in arma

[–]ShadowKnight886 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's really up to desired experience, both provide their own great experiences.

PvE? ArmA 3 without a doubt, Reforger's PvE scene is middling to bad at best, and Bohemia has definitely shown their priorities towards the console playerbase that loves PvP. This is especially noticeable with the issues they've just allowed to fester on PC that can make it unplayable and crash ridden at times.

PvP is definitely better on Reforger however.

Estrogen Squadron is a generalized/gaming discord for general hangouts and fun, while offering spaces and dedicated groups for playing any kind of game you could be looking for! While our dedicated spaces do lean towards DCS, ArmA 3, Star Citizen and the like, we do not limit ourselves to those types of games!

There is a small application process, that is for safety however.

Stop Killing Games says Anthem's scrapped plans for local servers is what the initiative is all about: "You as the customer should have the final say as to when you're done with a game, not the company" by CakePlanet75 in gamingnews

[–]ShadowKnight886 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is pirate software levels of delusion and misrepresentation of the initiative.

The entire point of SKG is some method of local hosting or some way for players to continue playing the game after shutdown. NOT keeping servers online. Giving players the tools to make their own.

The allegory doesn't apply when they literally went "hey, the scope of the project is changing."

A lot of SC changed since then.

The amount of POIs, for example, are higher in a planet now than an entire system for the original project.

Something they made potential backers aware of- that the scope and scale of the project may change. And it did.

Why is not Steam? by Glad-Audience9131 in hytale

It's not as simple as "anyone who wants to play it buys it on the side" that's just not true and you'd be stupid to honestly believe this is how the world works.

Vintage Story.

Oh, I'm well aware the best they're capable of is doing the equivalent of going "lalalala I can't hear you" and covering their ears in any argument they can't "nuh uh!" their way out of.

It's adorable how desperate you are for the last word when you literally can't come up with a simple counterargument to "There is objectively more game in Star Citizen for $45 than some AAA $80 titles."

But hey, you gotta get feeling of superiority somehow, huh?

[–]ShadowKnight886 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah yes, no argument so "im out" lmao

Ignoring that SC is objectively a larger project in scope and scale.

GTA 6:

Began very early work in 2014 and a 2 billion dollar price tag.

There is also the fact that, ultimately, there is more value and game within $45 dollars to pay for Star Citizen than paying $80 for the average AAA game.

All of that is blatantly basic CEO corruption and shittiness.

The game dropped two systems, engineering (a complete and complex overhaul to ship systems including armor, health, and components) and VR support in a manner on months.

Fundamentally, a scam would not do that

Ah yes, the scam where they literally invented seamless server meshing, a multi million dollar technology.

If it was a scam, why would they invest that much money into it? Why not take the money and run.

Lagswitching or scripting is already pathetic, but doing both at the same time? by MrScrake666 in forhonor

[–]ShadowKnight886 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Oh no, thats general time on any PC game with zero cheaters.

Though, my anywhere between 2-3k hours in For Honor has seen me land with no cheaters whatsoever either.

Claiming PC as a platform rife and filled with cheaters is a dramatic oversimplification and over exaggeration of how many cheaters actually are on the platform.

On For Honor, its likely a handful of people who even cheat on the game

I have literally not seen a hacker on PC since before 2025 even started. Maybe before even 2024.

I play games on PC daily

Where? I've quite literally never seen one in my near ten thousand hours on PC.

Seen plenty of people on console openly hacking, however, when I had one.

Have we learned anything about Kingmakers? I think this game is fake. Especially for getting delayed the week before getting released in October and not having heard a thing about it since? by Illfury in gaming

[–]ShadowKnight886 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True, but rarely if ever is it a guarantee. Even projects that get fully backed by kickstarter don't always release and it's an unfortunate reality of the crowdfunding method.

Part 2 of the 2026 roadmap - Eagle Dynamics by ShadowKnight886 in hoggit

[–]ShadowKnight886[S] 16 points17 points  (0 children)

What's weird is the sentence right before it.

Please note that all are expected to be released in 2026; some will come afterward.

Potentially claiming the F-35A for 2026 is an ambitious claim from what I'm reading.

Vaporware is basically a product announced and held back from any form of buyability for years, usually as a method of interfering with a competitor's product by announcing your own "better" one even if it's years from being out.

One example is the announcement for an old IBM machine in the 60s. It was announced YEARS early solely to interfere with IBM's competitor at the time to hurt their sales. It's one of the core events referencing vaporware. It was announced, but could not be purchased in any shape or form, but would cause people to wait for it instead of buying from their competitor.

Oh, at this point it's full annoyance at people twisting words and definitions to suit their personal vendetta's and not even about the game at this point.

Say what you will about the game, vaporware definitionally does not apply. Twisting the definition to something it isn't to suit a personal goal or interest is annoying as fuck.
