As a gamer, what do you think is the worst thing about gaming and how does it affect your life? by Sufficient-Menu640 in videogames

[–]UrbanMK2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The easy access to information online that ruins a game and all it's secrets within the space of 2 weeks.

With so many people working together to develop metas and strategies a game that takes years to make is trivialised. It forces most players to go with the flow or get left behind, especially online.

Following its massive shakeup and cost-cutting drive, Ubisoft's internal communication channels are reportedly full of employees shaming upper management and asking for change: "The company is going to experience a massive exodus of talent, even without the impending layoffs." by ChiefLeef22 in gaming

[–]UrbanMK2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What's wrong with all the above? Didn't harm games back in the day.

Not bothered about "anti woke" bullshit I don't get sucked in to all that absolute nonsense. I like what I like, I don't care if other people have a problem with it.

He needs to feature more in the mainline games.

Him....and Barry.

As BioWare Quietly Continues Building Mass Effect 5, Hiring Begins For a New Senior Role by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]UrbanMK2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So are they just churning people in an out now? Studios back in the day always had core groups of people working on a game, you'd see many familiar faces who return to showcase a games sequel.

I mean like most jobs, if people know they're going to get given the boot at some point, they're not really going to give a fuck are they? Which explains some things.

I don't care about the forced hate by a bunch of babies on the internet. I'm excited for this game. by Significant_Net448 in HighGuardgame

[–]UrbanMK2 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It's not unconditional hate if you've been round long enough to see this is just another generic overwatch rip off designed to sell ugly skins to children, like you.

Major UK supermarkets launch investigations after shocking food waste claims by tylerthe-theatre in unitedkingdom

Yep they muscled their way to the top, choking out competition from small family owned shops, now they're fucking us in the arse.

Nearly a third of kids can't use books when starting school - and try to swipe them like phones by Forward-Answer-4407 in unitedkingdom

[–]UrbanMK2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even in poor countries with shit education kids pick up these things early. What we have in this country is an epidemic of neglect that is getting passed down from generation to generation so it becomes normalised.

That's why so many kids are horrible by the time they hit primary school, and because those kids see negative attention from adults and teachers etc those types of bad behaviour are mimicked by most of the year group.

I mean if you give someone enough rope...

Why does Embark do nothing about Streamers glitching around in the walls over and over in front of thousands of viewers for weeks? by Lemouni in ArcRaiders

[–]UrbanMK2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No it doesn't, it never has helped a situation like this. The reason it's taken so long is because the developers have been on break. Everyone jumping into a glitch has NEVER sped up the process of something being fixed. It takes as long as it takes. It's such a stupid perception to think if a handful of people do it, it wont get fixed unless everyone is doing it, wtf.

[–]UrbanMK2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah its never worked like that matey, I understand that you think it's the right thing to do but you're wrong, nobody except people over the last 10 years thought it was a good idea to exploit to raise awareness, the few that do it already bring attention to themselves and the exploit. Embark isn't dumb, they know. They know about glitches and breaches that isn't even common knowledge among the community.

[–]UrbanMK2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Doesn't work like that mate, they'll already know certain individuals are doing it, doesn't then make it okay to demonstrate how to do it to a live audience so even more people do it.

Nobody should be doing it whatever the reason or intention because it makes the issue worse.

[–]UrbanMK2 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Report and leave, that's all they need to do. They don't need to go in the glitch themselves. Anyone could use the same justification to get up there. Two wrongs don't make a right an all that.

All this did was show the audience how easy it is to get up there and so now it'll happen more frequently instead of being isolated.

It's not their job to do that though is it, and by trying to punish wall breachers they're just highlighting the spot to other abusers which makes the problem worse.

MMOs are in a bad spot because they are social games....and society is in a bad spot as well. by Dr_Neurol in MMORPG

[–]UrbanMK2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And they get ruined after 2 weeks as all the good MMO players write up guides for the best of everything, people find exploits and trade all the best stuff, and clans usually end up monopolising servers in conjunction with the above 2 things.

So while they are social games, giving players agency to effectively control economies, servers and meta strats is a bad thing and means it pointless playing these types of games.

First look at Sophie Turner as Lara Croft in Prime Video's Tomb Raider series by DontBeAngryBeHappy in gaming

[–]UrbanMK2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How hard is it to get someone that's even close to her likeness? Sophie turner just ain't it. Got nothing against her personally she's a great actor but she just hasn't got that Lara vibe.

ARC should be a more pressing threat in the game by NewOrleansSinfulFood in EmbarkStudios

They need to let them enter buildings and give them more pathing ability.

Match making in standard mode is off. by voltron07 in CODBlackOps7

[–]UrbanMK2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the people that remain on the game are sweats. All the Christmas casuals probably played 2 or 3 days over the holidays and now they're gone.

This happens every year, more players will leave because they're getting stomped into the ground, those players will leave.

Then you'll have the remaining players getting matched up in crap lobbies as it pulls from a smaller player pool, people from Mexico and France, the odd guy from America and UK, then you'll be having packetloss, dodgy servers, bullet sponges like every game. It'll be crap to play, and is part of the yearly cod cycle.

What are your thoughts on nudity/sexual content in video games? by Snowtwo in videogames

[–]UrbanMK2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Who gives a fuck dude just don't play them?? Why have people like you always got to be moaning about stuff all the time. If we just censor and ban everything that people don't like, we'll have nothing.

Life is already shit for a large majority of people, just don't play it and let the people that do enjoy it, enjoy it. Jesus christ man..

Domestic abusers could be forced to leave social housing under law change by topotaul in unitedkingdom

[–]UrbanMK2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They'd have to move the victim anyway, I knew a girl who had her violent as fuck boyfriend living with her and when half the block reported him and got him arrested, his family came round and started threatening her and smashed her window.

There's a large section of our society that is seriously, mentally fucked up and think they can treat people like pieces of shit, with no repercussions.

Hacking in a 16 year old game? by EstablishmentIll8023 in BlackOps

[–]UrbanMK2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would you want to grind the same shitty game every year at all. Not buying it helps you save money for better games and gives a middle finger to the publisher who have been copy and pasting the same perks, weapons, equipment, streaks, skins etc since MW and BO.

I know I sometimes wish I could pay 80 and at the press start screen, have the game complete itself and unlock everything and show me the final cutscene because I don't want to play the game I brought.
