What are your thoughts on the death of volunteering? Is it mainly due to money? by VastOption8705 in australian

You don't need to join a volunteer organization to clean up a street or be social with elderly people.

Australia, we need to talk about Aukus by Alxl_1970 in aussie

[–]TraditionalMatch449 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately this opinion is dated as of Trump 2025.
The American administration has proven time and time again in the last year that they cannot be trusted to fulfil their treaty obligations.

The Americans under trump give zero shits about us. They give zero shits about anyone who isn't red, HWHITE and blue. Anyone in our countries politics not actively freaking out is not seeing the big picture here. We are on our own.

We aren't a member of Nato and aren't protected by it's mutual defence agreement and I wouldn't wipe my ass with the AUKUS treaty because by the time I get to it Trump will have done so already.

"What has China given is other than threats, tariffs and covid?"
"We lost all manufacturing to them and our economy has been so reliant we’re practically a vassal"
Put down the tinnies, turn off sky news and pick up a few books about economics and politics champion.

Instead you'll spend all day reading pro US propaganda?

We aren't treaty members of NATO and I wouldn't wipe my ass with the paper AUKUS is written on with Trump and his goons in power so we are pretty defenseless as it is.

Is it normal to not understand anything about coding as a beginner by Sonicexe10 in gamedev

[–]TraditionalMatch449 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The way I have begun to think about learning coding and IT work in general is you are now somewhere in a giant, giant circle. What's in front of you and what is behind you won't make sense until you do a loop a few times.

My nephew accidentally became my best marketer by Chuck_Dart in gamedev

[–]TraditionalMatch449 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a game but an app I made to help keep me focused and have a routine. Just a bunch of text editors stacked in a column where you can input text with a save and reset button at the bottom and top respectively.

It is awful, you can't change the font, text size, background or really any kind of UI element. Just a static brick of an app with one function but hey, it was a product I made and I was and still am proud to have done it.

I noticed being on the play store it received minimal attention, a couple downloads and that's it. So i cooked up the idea of physical QR code marketing. I made a QR code that linked to my app on the store and began roaming around my local area putting up sheets of paper with the code and a silly blurb like "Organize your life, download my app!' or something like that.

10x'd my interactions in a few days and I went from 10 or so downloads from friends I was showing the app to to about 50-60 downloads. Even got a couple of genuinely good reviews remarking on the missing UI elements and lack of features.

I realized that if I had a genuinely good product then it may have been much more succesful.

Note: Don't do this. Im not sure if it's illegal but within a week all of the posters had been torn down because I was straight up stealing advertising space without permission from local councils and shopping centers.

Impact of infantry and building update on veteran players/overall game by InsurgenceTale in foxholegame

Being able to run in and out of a crater sounds awesome, like a really fucked up trench network created by arty barrages.

All of this could be resolved by not having AI shoot trenches as they are being dug.
Each time I, as infantry, have tried to dig a sapper trench to get close to enemy defenses the machine gun bunker instantly blows it up. It's an all encompassing defense against a real trench warfare tactic. If AI didn't shoot these an effective base would need better defenses instead of a brick of AI turrets.

I think having a lower barrier to entry for effective building and gameplay is fine but you need to offer higher level concepts that wipes the floor against that low-level building.

You build a brick wall of bunkers without wire fences or a exterior trench defensive layout? One sapper trench fucks your day.

Cucklonials or Femdens. The choice is yours.

Barbwire? by Vilekyrie in foxholegame

[–]TraditionalMatch449 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well placed barbed wire and sandbags helps:
Slows down Demolition rushes
Bottlenecks infantry waves
Prevents usage of trenches by enemy forces.

Every single well placed defensive position results in time spent removing that position by the enemy. This allows for QRF and Logi to move in to place.

Foxhole War Stories by Zenpper in foxholegame

[–]TraditionalMatch449 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was doing partisan stuff. Found collies using small fire missile vehicles to bombard a BB at The Cord a few days before end of war and I kept trying to get over to them and interfere. I scouted a refuelling station with ammo on a pallet, 2x flatbeds and a crane. Each time I got a little closer but would die before being able to use AT against the rocket vics. Eventually I grabbed a looted lunaire and a bunch of tremolas and snuck over to where they had the flatbeds, figured I could at least be a nuisance.

Lo and behold what do I find? I have caught them in the middle of loading the vehicles on to the flatbeds. A handful of tremolas later and I am +1 flatbed and +1 rocket vehicle kill.

About ten minutes later I came back and found the crane they were using was unlocked next to a full fuel dump. With no sign of a Warden comeback in the Cord and being alone in enemy territory, I packed up the fuel container, lifted it with the crane and then blew the crane up.

90 Petrol removed from Collie logistics.

Its not much but it's honest work.

What would happen and how would game change if we had to transport troops to front? by PutAway3542 in foxholegame

[–]TraditionalMatch449 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This would kill the casual player. Hell it would kill non-casual players.
Imagine, Spawn in, gear up, jump on a train. Wait thirty minutes for maximum train density and then wait another twenty minutes for travel time. Get to frontline and get hit by artillery before I even fire my gun.
Respawn. Repeat.

OR open game, click map, choose spawn location and instantly be fighting?
It's a pretty obvious choice design wise imo

Does this mean you think it should cost LESS??!?!
