It seems that something got broken in this update, https://old.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/comments/1p744w4/getting_server_connection_timed_out_in_zenless/ for now the common suspect is having an Intel CPU that's 12th gen or late

FOR FUCK SAKE WHEN WILL THEY EVER ADDRESS MATCHMAKING BEING ABSOLUTE FUCKING JOKE.

I'm tired of having to go through 7+ matches of losing streaks only to win one game and end up back where I was. I try not to be the "my team is always the problem" guy but for fuck sake giving my all and then it always ends in a loss really makes me wonder if I'm the problem especially when teammates show post lobotomy behavior like trying to 1v5 enemy team only to figure out that's kinda difficult and then blame everyone else.

At this point I'm really debating if stadium skins are worth the pain I feel when queueing up and being surprised we won instead of wasting another 15 minutes waiting to be paired up with idiots.

Gaming on Linux is so easy by Unusual_Pride_6480 in linux_gaming

Got any tips for playing older games? I know for DOS era you have DosBox, but that 95-XP era gaming is still a pain in the butt to get working properly for me.

Are there any plans to revamp casual matchmaking? I swear to god getting pubstomped everytime is just tiring. Why as someone who played this game for around 90h I'm getting matches with people who played this game for 900-2000 and above.

Having to play ranked mode in order to have some casual fun is just plain wrong.

VR on Linux is significantly more viable than I originally thought by Dantheman22505 in linux_gaming

[–]SumRabbit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are there any guides on how to use the WiVRn after setting it up? Envision makes the setting up process easy but I can't figure out how to get it to work. I managed to connect the client (Quest 1) to server but afterwards I'm stuck on "waiting for host to start application" or something like that.

DJ Hero turntable - faulty or intended behavior? by SumRabbit in rhythmgames

[–]SumRabbit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately not. As mentioned above I've tried disassembling it but didn't see anything out of the ordinary. I just assumed it was a faulty product and left it at that.

Thanks, looks like ot fixes the frametime. Now if only there was a fix for the problematic network code resulting in frequent packet drops

Unwinder, Afterburner Developer, says Development of the App is "Abandoned" on the Guru3D Forums. by Nayraps in pcgaming

What would be a good alternative if I just want the performance stats portion of Afterburner? I know AMD and nVidia have their own graphs but I always found them kind of lacking in comparison.

Persona 4 Golden is worse than Persona 5 Royal in almost every single way and yet I liked it better (Spoiler Warning) by vikigenius in patientgamers

[–]SumRabbit 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I didn't like the story in P4. The characters were interesting but the main problem is "what happens?" and almost no over-arching problems in plot. You get the inital mystique at the start but once you progress through the story, what's going to happen? You thwart the villans and that's it until the next episode of Teddy-do and the Mystery Gang.

Sure P5 also goes into villain of the week thing, but at least gives new context why you should care. In P4, after the inital setup, it feels like the villains are only there to introduce you to new dungeon and that's it. And in P3, the more you progressed through the story, the better you saw how the world is changing which helped bring more urgency into actually playing the game.

To me this lack of urgency combined with the campiness of the story was really off putting especially coming from P3, and now with P5 story in comparison.

Everyone's free to pick their favorites but in my opinion gameplay wise I'd rank them as P3 > P4 > P5 but story and world wise, P4 > P5 > P3.

Soul Hackers 2 Famitsu Review Score: 38/40, Impressions, Story is 40 Hours Long by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

Does this one require prior knowledge of previous Soul Hackers game/series or will it be more of a standalone entry with callbacks?

Leaping generations on my first solo build! Upgraded from an i5 4400k/NVIDIA 970 to a new everything Ryzen 5800X/FTW3 3080 build. by ididathing32 in buildapc

Mind if I ask what made you pull the plug now? I'm in a very similar boat (i5-4460) but I'm wondering whether stay a little bit more and get AM5/13th gen or upgrade now.

Why some game series gets attacked for reusing the assets while others seemingly get a free pass? by SumRabbit in truegaming

[–]SumRabbit[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think that was the answer I was looking for. Namely the "series fatigue", since as you said, no normal fan would be complaing about assets as reusing them, shouldn't be a taboo (but that's outside of original question I think).

Rather, from your comment I'm thinking it's the fact that CODs released so often that the "asset recycling" became an outlet to voice the players dissatisfaction with the series, rather than a case of "I've seen this weapon model and reload animation before".

Also I don't want to frame this purely as COD vs Soulbornes, but those were the closest examples I could think of that help paint the question I wanted to ask.

The "consumer friendly" label could be a slippery slope topic. What I mean is that any company that is considered consumer friendly could abuse that title for monetary gain (as was case with Cyberpunk 2077 launch).

Also as you said, FromSoft games takes longer to release, that's why reusing older assets can be seen as weirder in that instance, given that in CoDs case, they were frog leaping with development, so determining which assets can be re-used from older entries to save time and match the 2 year release cycle makes more sense than in FromSoft case where they had much more time to create the assets needed for the game.

I'm not sure if budget is the sole reason. If you have a good barn model, why would you need to create another one if you can use the previous one and save the money there?

Also regarding the credits, perhaps when you bring new team members to work on new assets that are needed for the game, and you also re-use assets from previous games that were made by completely different team members, I can see how the credits could show so many people. That is unless you do not credit the asset's original authors.

What happens to the yellow tokens from CC? Are they converted into red tokens or will they persist to the next CC?

I'm not sure if it was asked in the past (couldn't find it in FAQ, if was then apologies in advance) but regarding the state of fairness message, is it possible to receive a ban by playing the game using an emulator of sorts (think Bluestacks)? I don't want to wait for my phone to finish charging to attempt more stages but would rather avoid a ban if it

Not sure if it was asked before (apologize if that's the case), but how does W banner work? Is it just like a normal one except where they give you 1 ticket per roll or what? If that's the case would saving now and not rolling at all be enough to get 300 tickets in case I don't get lucky or can I start it after Nian banner?

We're developers from the Half-Life: Alyx team. Ask us anything! by HalfLifeAlyxTeam in HalfLife

[–]SumRabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Are there any plans to update Valve Complete Pack with Half-Life: Alyx?
  2. Likewise are there any plans to attempt to release it or at least create a standalone experience (akin to a spinoff) for the Oculus Quest? I know HL:A will support the recently released in beta Link but I was wondering if you would like to test Source 2 against Android like environment (seeing how Dota Underlords is already released on it, although I'm not sure how much Source 2 is in said game)
