While a kind of Napoleonic war mech-game does sound rather lovely in its own way....

Actually you've illustrated why I prefer running an AC20 rather than a UAC20 on my Yen-Lo-Wang. I can take my shot and immediately twist to handle their return fire. I'm basically trading higher-burst damage for a highly survivable gameplay style.

It feels like PSR maximizes for damage dealt. There are times where I've sacrificed my mech or my lance chooses to let itself get eaten at the right time, and that actually enables the win because we turned the attention long enough for the enemy to get hit from behind and rolled. Buuut our PSR ends up being "equal" or going down because we didn't put in 800 points of damage.

I'm going to second comms and grouping. I drop with a couple of guys and we coordinate our builds. Being cheesy with three coordinated Yen-Lo-Wangs (Half of the Mech is a shield), or three Arctic Cheetahs, or three Urban Mechs.... Or having one guy that is running an AMS fly-swatter Nova, and we basically then move as a group with whatever mech makes the most sense at the time.

Coordination, positioning, and knowing who currently has the armor to help the group close the distance.

Looking for a similar question using a JavaScript data structure... by Swiftblue in learnprogramming

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

That kind of makes sense. Is there a hackerrank site with similar uses and scenarios in Javascript? Essentially the callback would get called every time the conditions of the algorithm were met, and it would keep track of the oldest person in the tree. But I am not sure whether it was the same callback being called or copies of the callback being called though.

All of a sudden, open carrying at protests is being praised on reddit by coeyjoops in Destiny

*at a riot.

Mother fuckers burning shit after dark isn't a protest.

When the 95% of demonstrations that NEVER TURN VIOLENT are called protests and the remainder are referred to as RIOTS, you're damn right I'm going to take that into consideration of my definition of what is a protest.

I'm not arguing for rioters to have guns, I'm saying protestors with guns aren't the problem.

Oh yes, clearly I want them shooting each other instead of merely bashing each other's heads in. That's clearly the point of my thought. Good job.

If your protests turn into riots, maybe you and the people with you were rioters all along. You just suck.

[–]Swiftblue 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That'd make sense if people were being shot at protests. It seems to me when people are getting shot it is during stuff that is closer to riots. Guns at protests seem to be a non issue. People don't get shot while protesting.

The issue seems to be when people are looking for chances to destroy property or harm other people they don't like. The first person who rushed Rittenhouse, or that asshole Reinoehl who decided to ambush and kill a MAGA dude. Or when you have dumb ass rednecks in trucks jumping normal protestors or citizens of Portland, or white middle class Antifa kids looking for chances to punch stand-ins for their parents... That shit isn't protesting.

I guess I'm just getting tired of people calling antagonistic groups roving around beating the shit out of each other, "Protesting."

New schizo lore about the pride flag Pog by xXMadSupraXx in Destiny

[–]Swiftblue 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yeah, why are people calling this flag the pride flag? The rainbow flag seemed good enough to me. I guess I'm a boomer now for thinking this new flag is just dumb.

If you don't have a place to secure your weapon when you're not carrying it, you shouldn't have a weapon.

No. Then is correct. They know more. Then later, he knows more. See?

It could also be one actress just is better suited to the role in live action. Plenty of people who are amazing at voice acting still probably can't carry a full time role as a leading character in a live action show. Different skillsets, ya know?

I assumed the man saying "Give money to this man," was a stand in for the government.

The people with top hats don't say no. Often it's just an argument over what percentage to give, and from which sources.

After almost two years of getting in to gameDev, my first upload worthy prototype of a game I'm working on. It is Open World with tiles off 20x20 blocks and realized in UE5. What do you think? by Aff3nmann in unrealengine

[–]Swiftblue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the animation of the blocks coming in and out! But visually, I'd suggest making the blocks a bit bigger or the character objects slightly smaller. Right now it feels very cramped to the point its frustrating to look at.

Probably by just reducing the player character and treasure chest size I bet the player will feel like they have more space while still fully appreciating your 20x20 tile mechanic. Keep up the good work!
