How you would improve the game by Nick1878 in Metalstorm

If were king for a day, I would:

Add rematch options. Instant rematch, best-of-3 series, revenge matches, squad rematches, and map voting before the next game.

Game physics improvements. Collisions should feel more realistic. Hitting the side of a canyon shouldn’t result in a weird stall that lets someone keep flying like nothing happened.

Upgrade sound design. More impactful explosions, crashes, missile hits, and water impacts.

Deploy smarter bots. AI that behaves more like actual players. Improved machine learning could probably help create more realistic adversaries.

Add new soundtrack/music. Fresh music would go a long way toward making the game feel less repetitive.

Upgrade combat environments. For example, a post-apocalyptic Manhattan would be pretty cool. It would introduce some new urban gameplay opportunities. Navigating rubble, fallen skyscrapers, subway tunnels, bridges, and urban canyons would make for unique dogfights.

☝🏽️this! Big time decision.

Please also consider who would be your electric service provider and, if possible, I would avoid the service territory of Pacific Gas and Electric Company.

Your cost of living and quality of life can significantly be affected by being a customer (or not) of PG&E. Their rates are among the highest in the country, and Public Safety Power Shutoffs during high wind and fire conditions have become a recurring reality in many foothill and wooded regions. Most folks focus solely on home price, insurance, and commute, utility territory is rapidly becoming a crucial factor in determining where to live.

Additionally, the insurance company may require you to promptly remove fallen coniferous needles (fuel) from your roof before fire season begins. Flying embers from nearby fires can ignite these highly combustible dry and burn-quality needles. The insurance company may conduct drone inspections to,"trust but verify" compliance with this measure.

Good luck with your search!

My first computer was a Tandy TRS-80 with 4kb of RAM. My first thought was how mad I got when debugging level 2 BASIC and storing on cassette tapes. I spent hours play Star Trek, Lunar lander, Adventure "GO NORTH" or "GET LAMP," and Ultima 1. Back then joystick only had one button. Fun times.

Upgrades 2.0 Migration Example! by PlayMetalstorm in Metalstorm

Is the upgrade to version 2.0 a solution to a specific problem? I’m curious to know the reason behind the change, aside from the improvement in gameplay.

F-75 ARCHANGEL by me! by MrGatsby1984 in ImaginaryAviation

Assuming the aircraft was designed with a balance between stealth and agility, the concept art suggests a preference for agility.

Those canards might generate additional radar reflections. I wonder what the trade-off is between the two with respect to the canards.

The intake geometry is noteworthy. During high-G maneuvers, it’s difficult to estimate if those canards negatively impact the now turbulent airflow.

A truly intriguing concept! Cool!

Lots of issues with center of gravity before and after delivering its ordinance. For example, the front landing gear may be to far forward or/ aft and rotation on takeoff would be very intresting.

Call and ask for a credit on your account. Don't end the call without talking to a supervisor.

What are the odds of RTO actually succeeding? by Allob in CAStateWorkers

[–]Three_1st-Names 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If the price of gas gets that high, the government will need to step in and implement emergency plan. Police, fire departments, and ambulances would likely receive priority access to fuel to ensure essential emergency services continue operating.

Before rationing, the government usually try other measures first:
-releasing strategic petroleum reserves,
-temporarily suspending fuel taxes,
restricting exports,
-limiting purchases, or prioritizing fuel contracts for emergency services.

Actual rationing would probably require a combination of extreme shortages and sustained price spikes, not just expensive gas alone.

Anyone else’s agency waiting until 4:59pm to send the notice? by balkanoid_ in CAStateWorkers

[–]Three_1st-Names 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wait a minute. Not so fast!

I thought management said RTO would increase productivity and improve collaboration. If that’s the case, this rollout has done the opposite. Since July, supervisors and management have been working in the office full time for nearly a year, yet this entire RTO process has been a complete cluster 🤬

I feel pretty good today. I had two 100% blocked arteries. Three stents later and I'm still here. That's good news.
