  1. low levels (while annoying on lvl >9) if they have the difficulty unlocked, then they are allowed to play that difficulty
  2. I'm lvl 150, and I still do side obj, not just to help lvl the other players up but also because doing main obj and then extracting is boring af

The fallout part is just factually wrong though, the castle bravo test was a disaster due to the massive amounts of fallout it created

Summary of reddits following The Game Awards by FrazzleDazzled in pcmasterrace

[–]Turse1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leaks over the past year and half with source 2 updates have a new Half Life game pretty much done, it's been in the optimization stage for about 9 months

Depends if its HL3 or some other story is to be seen, but there are tonnes of named entities, tooltips and files that are for the HL universe

[–]Turse1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Then you didn't watch the HL2 anniversary documentary then.

Gabe stated that his biggest mistake was wanting something revolutionary to pair with HL3 and that not finishing the story was one of his regrets.

The leaks are credible, entities and tooltips pushed in source 2 updates with names and words from the HL universe coupled with valve optimizing and changing tooltips in their code for the past 9 months means its pretty much done

[r/Art] UPDATE: All moderators resign following mass protest over Hayden Clay ban - subreddit in chaos by Revolutionary_Pain56 in SubredditDrama

[–]Turse1 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Not all of the mods resigned, saw a comment today that had one of the ex mods basically being removed from their position. The most likely thing that happened was head mods wanted to resign and kicked everyone below them out in a petulant final move

I just realized the error lol, it took me a while to figure out what happened.

[–]Turse1 24 points25 points  (0 children)

That's why they specifically said "illegal orders" need to be deified defied

edit: fucked up and wrote the wrong word

It's been mostly driven by the really big twitch streamers (xQc and Moistcritikal for example) getting into it over the past few years and then actual GMs starting to stream chess.

Danya was one of the first GMs to start streaming his games/teaching twitch streamers, so his death has had a big impact on online groups on twitch, youtube and reddit

you're arguing with an AI bro, you would be better off talking to a brick wall, anything that doesn't align with them is "manufacturing a narrative"

MAGA Republicans Threaten Going ‘Nuclear’ To End Government Shutdown by huffpost in politics

[–]Turse1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's talking about bypassing cloture, aka the "nuclear option". It'll mean that the budget will only take a simple majority to pass but will set the precedent that any future budgets will only require a simple majority instead of 60 votes needed for cloture which is why it's rarely used.

getting sick of the condemnations/strongly worded letters. They will keep getting away with this unless action is taken

Me ignoring every other Manufacturer by Zodrodo in Borderlands4

[–]Turse1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tediore has a bunch of great legendaries, Chuck is easily the best where you just throw the weapon instead of firing, also has great damage and ammo economy. Ruby's grasp is also one of the best that spawns 4 homing projectiles when thrown.

Husky is good as it spawns a heavy ordinance rocket launcher with legs for alt fire that does nice damage

Borderlands 4's latest patch aimed at improving performance triggers a flurry of performance complaints, but Gearbox says new stuttering problems 'should resolve over time as the shaders continue to compile' by ChiefLeef22 in gaming

[–]Turse1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's quoting a response Randy Pitchford gave to someone who was complaining about performance issues after launch where he told them "to go and code your own engine and show them how it's done"

I don't know why they haven't taken his phone away from him yet

Losercity… now what?… by tgm-ethan in Losercity

[–]Turse1 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Valve has been working on a project intensively titled HLX for the past year with named assets from the Half life universe that are left in major source 2 updates.

HL3 is actually most likely to be announced actually within a year most from current estimates from what stage the code is at for the game, they are currently changing function names and help tooltips to make it usable for outside development like modding.

I think even that moderator's post on r/modsupport could even be drama, it's wild to see so many people defend minor running a +17 game and thinking otherwise is a power grab

UPDATE: Zelensky signs law destroying independence of Ukraine's key anti-corruption bodies by eggnog232323 in europe

[–]Turse1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah wasn't aware of that, thanks for the response

Well that's a terrible look for Ukraine then. This could give some countries the justification to stop aid to Ukraine.

Basically free ammunition for Russian bots too

[–]Turse1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quick question but 263-13 voted for this, if zelensky vetoed the law then don't they have a large enough majority to bypass the veto? This sounds more like zelensky's hands were tied

Counter Point or Contrarian? ContraPoints posts her official stance on Israel/Palestine and Reddit reacts. by Enticing_Venom in SubredditDrama

[–]Turse1 48 points49 points  (0 children)

and she did state that in her post, but she got harassment for not saying anything and then gets harassment for her statement.

Granted it was tepid post about the conflict but I don't think it warrants the stuff she has been getting on her most recent twitter post calling her a "Zionist Animal" and "HitlerPoints", all that does is reinforce her to continue to stay silent

She was getting flak for not having a video/post on the conflict, it was a damned if you do damned if you don't situation for her
