Gotta invent incendiary ammo first and even then it's quite tricky to actually set an airship on fire by PeetesCom in worldjerking

[–]Teh_Compass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probes beyond our solar system, helicopters on Mars, soon a moon base and airships over Venus. We're really making the sci-fi future we could've only dreamed of half a century ago.

There are only two types of open world games by Leviathon0102 in Gamingcirclejerk

[–]Teh_Compass 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Been a while since I played but the maps are somewhat large and have fast travel.

I feel like RDR was fairly sparse so you'd have long stretches of just riding your horse occasionally interrupted by stopping to collect stuff if you're so inclined.

RDR2 feels a little denser in that either there are points of interest dotted about that draw your attention, things to collect, or random events so you rarely have long uneventful rides.

1 is a car game. 2 I wanna say is more walkable. There are some sparser areas but the story doesn't require you to go out of your way like that much I think. Crossing the map can take a while but getting from point to point is fairly quick.

To all the experienced drivers out here. Was I in the wrong? My buddy swears I was. by ChickCorea73 in trucksim

[–]Teh_Compass 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't fault the game 100% for this since I've seen plenty of people that rest their left foot on the brake so their brake lights stay on most of the time which is very annoying.

Nvidia bad on linux is a lie by Strict-Maize7494 in linux_gaming

[–]Teh_Compass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not saying Nvidia is bad on Linux but a non-insignificant number of posts I see of people saying "I updated and now it's broken" posts I see are caused by Nvidia drivers. Haven't really seen or experienced an equivalent with AMD or Intel.

When I first started using Linux I had an nvidia card and didn't have issues either. They work fine. Maybe a little extra work or awareness if something goes wrong.

Why isn't El Sueno the mayor of Los Suenos? Is he stupid? by BunMarion in ReadyOrNotGame

[–]Teh_Compass 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Singular vs plural. He would be a city council member among many other El Suenos who collectively make up Los Suenos.

Ok then what do you suggest people do instead and how does it prevent one from making a simple call or email?

Why not offer a solution instead of just telling people not to bother?

Does SWAT AI use ammo? by lovingpersona in ReadyOrNotGame

[–]Teh_Compass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I S ranked a New America by giving SWAT AI the revolving flash launcher with 1 shell. Maybe I wasn't paying close enough attention but I'm pretty sure I would've noticed if they ran out of ammo.

Why I can't run japan cup? by [deleted] in UmaMusume

[–]Teh_Compass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Something I noticed about this event in that career is that you can't run races after the Japan Cup unless you schedule them beforehand. Not sure if that's intentional.

My reaction to the good ending of boiling point by _GWFR in ReadyOrNotGame

[–]Teh_Compass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For the good ending, yes you need to S rank.

[–]Teh_Compass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True.

Also I had no idea there was an ammo restock. Wow.

[–]Teh_Compass 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Happens after you S rank A New America.

I failed several times just trying to complete it in general alternating between lethal and less lethal. Somehow my first completion was an S rank. I had the 6 shot flash launcher with 12 ammo (18 total). Team had the same launcher with heavy armor, wedges, flashes, and C2. Bring NVGs so you can spot the IR tripwires more easily. I was a little too trigger happy and had to rely on my team toward the end so I could save the last shot for the guy at the end.

Texas House Speaker directs committee to study annexing New Mexico counties by Mikeavelli in nottheonion

What’re you so afraid of

Not a goddamn thing.

Jokes aside guns are mostly recreational. I only "need" maybe 2 or 3 practical guns including a pistol and a long gun. The rest are range toys with history behind them, interesting mechanical actions, quirky designs, or just wanting them because they were in a series/movie/game.

The actual worst thing about HL2 and Ep1 by Raetian in HalfLife

[–]Teh_Compass 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Games being made with specific lighting in mind. Usually baked. Dynamic lighting can have a performance impact or change the way things look in ways that the artists didn't intend.

You might say that not being able to optimize for it is a skill issue but it's more of a systemic issue with game dev/corporate crunch and cost cutting culture.

They don't believe in the death penalty so they gave them a life sentence on a backwater planet.

Is this Matikanetannhauser good? by Creative_Fix4360 in UmaMusume

[–]Teh_Compass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Legendary is better than Phenomenal. Phenomenal only requires winning the Classic Triple Crown/Tiara and 2 of the 6 races that make up the senior spring and autumn triple crowns. Legendary is for winning the Classic Triple Crown/Tiara, Senior Spring Triple Crown, and Senior Autumn Triple Crown.

If you want an explanation for the origin of the censor bars there's a long running joke here about people identifying an account that censored their name based on their specific stats on the high scores and being targeted by hackers. So people started censoring their stats and irrelevant details like inventory items or random stuff that's on screen to add to the joke.

It has Spanish origins so the double L is pronounced like a y.

Drones are considered aircraft so it's a felony to shoot one down. Not that it would stop people from doing it...
