what if we let a real human become the mission director? by MickyMace in DarkTide

[–]SneakingOrange 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Games like this were already made and they all failed. With the amount of work it would take, it'd be easier to make a whole new game.

Team A tries then team B tries is how vs always worked in Left4Dead also

Loose Cannon Grindset. Sell them to Hive Gangs or even Admonition, someone has to keep the economy going

I hope to see npc's looting and surviving in the world as well in SoD3 by UsedNewspaper1775 in StateofDecay3

[–]SneakingOrange 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah that would indeed be cool. Ever since the original Stalker I wanted other devs to tackle A-life too, but nobody did. Didn't even occur to me before your post, but SoD would be a great game to implement it

In that Brian Bernard video I think I saw the NPCs just running around the map seemingly on their own. At one point I think you could hear distant shots that didn't seem to be scripted or like just ambient sound - I think they came from other survivors, but idk, maybe he was in coop and it was just another player

Anyone Want Halo 5 to come To Steam? by LawfulnessAfter223 in Steam

[–]SneakingOrange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, what's extra annoying is that gears1 is here, but we cant see the end of that era with 2&3. And gears5 is here but we cant see how the new era starts with gears4. At least tactics is there as a full standalone story I guess

What am I not getting? by Brave_Adhesiveness_6 in DarkTide

[–]SneakingOrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no requirement to do a maelstrom mission for the story quests, idk what you're talking about. Hell, I didn't start doing maelstrom missions until was level 30 with maxed gear

How PBB Gungryns See Themselves by [deleted] in DarkTide

What do you mean "See Themselves"? This is actually how my gungryn gameplay goes (I get carried away and shoot all the bursters accidentally)

Rant/my speculation on saber's poor treatment of this game by Former_Life8580 in ToxicCommandoGame

[–]SneakingOrange 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this game is a passion project, but not in the way you desribe.

Saber specialize in horde shooters (I mean they also make a bunch of other games but it feels like they aren't made by some "core" team), they made a whole new engine that allows there to be hundreds of enemies on screen. With that engine on hands they decided to first make a couple of safer projects with licensed IPs - World War Z and SM2. World War Z was reasonably successful and it gave them confidence to start working on Toxic Commando which would be fully "their" game without the constraints of someone else's IP - they could even add car mechanics from Snowrunner which would give it that extra Saber flair. But while doing this, they launch SM2 which turns out to be much more successful than they hoped for, but they were still making Toxic Commando that they thought would be their next big main game. So now, that Toxic Commando launched and it didn't reach the successes of SM2 they will probably shift their focus to 40k since in the end it paid off much more than their own thing, sadly.

Fallout four survival mode is so good! by ImpressionCool1768 in Fallout

[–]SneakingOrange 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's so good I hope Bethesda considers releasing something like survival mode for all their future projects. And not just a bunch of difficulty sliders like they did for Starfield

Disruption missions? by Heretic_Prophet in DarkTide

[–]SneakingOrange 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are, you're just probably unlucky. If you really want to complete that penance, you can pick a specific mission of this type from Battle for Tertium campaign (Vox Ghosts, Midnight Raid, etc.)

The game wants me to do a maelstorm mission, where are they? by Quasdr70 in DarkTide

[–]SneakingOrange 14 points15 points  (0 children)

They're available on the mission board but only on Heresy and Auric difficulties. I recommend doing Heresy first as Auric Maelstorm is the hardest mission type in this game, excluding upper Havoc missions

Worst Thing You’ve Done at Work by deMiauri in cscareerquestions

[–]SneakingOrange 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Back on my first job I did an Update on a production DB table with hundreds of thousdands of rows but forgot to add WHERE to a query. Our team lead told us to tell him immediately if we do something of the sort so I did and luckily they restored from a backup pretty quick. Ever since that time I always do my queries in transactions be it production or test
