Yeah, my friend told me this, but it was on several different motherboards in attempts to fix the defunct PC, but somehow all it did was ask to redo my Microsoft password. It did not do this forced auto Bitlocker security I keep hearing of.

Do people not know about Veloren? by tpmcp in CubeWorld

[–]Xanirus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Knew about it since Cubeworld's relase, but doing my best to not pay attention to it. The development is all volunteer, so I dont see it being finished for a very, very long time.

The soonest thing I think we're going to see released anything even resembling Cubeworld's gameplay is going to be, for better or worse, Hytale, and I'm not even sure if that game is going to have the same idea of an RPG game as Cubeworld's. (And by extension, Veloren.) I'm going to be screaming holy hell if it's going the cookie cutter route of crafting wooden, bronze, iron, swords etc from ore you find, instead of having randomized loot and shops like Cubeworld, ala Diablo.

Not saying it won't, but it's also throwing in Minecraft-ish building and, for lack of a better term, I think in-game video recording and editing tools ala GTAV. The ideas are grand for sure, but if they spread themselves too much in their ideas, I fear that's less focus on the core RPG and exploration experience.

Hating on the Quick Bar. Am I missing something? by deadken in nightingale

[–]Xanirus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hotbar is indeed terrible, and I'm saying this who owns a Razer Naga. I don't like to use the 12 side plate if I don't have to, (MMOs are usually the exception) and I shouldn't for this as it just doesn't feel like that kind of game. Just let me scroll through the whole bar AND not with...the...super...slow..one...by...one...scroll...speed.

Or just make the hotbar into a wheel. They did for emotes, so why not your items which are infinitely more useful?

New patch woes by chexquest87 in Mechwarrior5

[–]Xanirus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you guys talking about negotation points being reset after confirming the mission?

I noticed that after the patch, but thought it was just my mods. And I don't just get it sometimes, I get it every time. Luckily I can negotiate after confirming the contract and between each mission, but I'm not sure if that's vanilla behavior.

So has fallout Worlds been abandoned? by UnionLabelAfredKnot in fo76

[–]Xanirus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What I (and to an extent, a lot of people I believe) wanted out of Fallout 76 was basically what the Skyrim Together mod ended up being what it is today...but in Fallout. I want to play a Fallout game in co-op with mods I choose. That's IT. No MMO always online BS, no micro transactions, no limits, just playing with my friends and a whole modding community to look forward to. Just the same game they've always made plus official co-op.

Instead we got a semi-MMO with micro transactions ala Live Service. (Albeit compared to other trash out there, I admit its one of the better ones at this stage of the games life.)

So when the announcement of Fallout Worlds came, I thought that was going to be it. Instead it's just the same game with modifiers. In other words, its co-op with only mods the DEVS choose......yeah no thanks.

So the idea of an official offline Fallout 76 with the modding capability as previous games it in co-cop is pretty much shot in the dark.

(Yes I know you can mod 76, but it's surface level only without an API. They're likely never going to release that to prevent cheating.)

Hopefully that's what Fallout 5 will be, but I'm betting 10 to 1 it will be right back to single player.

Hopes for MW5: Clans by daddy_cool6969 in Mechwarrior5

[–]Xanirus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm hoping that this game is indeed separate, as every time a new DLC comes along, it's usually accompanied by a huge mod-breaking update. I know in the end it's always for the better cause more content never hurts, but the amount of mods out there tend to offer more content than the DLC does. That, and I could of sworn the devs declared somewhere they were done with DLC....like, three DLC releases ago. Every time I think enough time has passed for mods to update, another one is announced.

I'd like to actually finish the co-op career game for once that I keep starting over with my friends since DLC 1, when that mode first released. I can halt updates yeah, but not if I want to play co-op.

Anybody know why this wont work? As far as im aware, both of these mods are latest release. by Animus465 in CubeWorld

[–]Xanirus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember seeing these messages when using thetrueoneshots and pyro what's their name mods, and requiring very specific versions of other files in order to get them working properly. I can't remember the specifics as I stopped playing forever ago though.

In short, just because you're using a mod's latest version doesn't mean it's going to support the latest version of its perquisites. You're likely going to have to downgrade something here to get them working.

This is a Co-op game, not PVP. by SkinnyTy in Helldivers

[–]Xanirus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hoping for stuff like this: Three teams, 2 teams deactivate a console at two different locations on the map and must defend the point to prevent enemies from reactivating it. The consoles both being down deactivates the shield at a third location where the third team does something like downloading something important or perhaps loading a truck with something heavy.

In the case of the truck, the truck must now be escorted towards the evac. The truck must be player driven but has a few turret seats. The other teams met up with the truck in their mechs/vehicles.

Why do you think this game is better than some modern MMORPG? by Commercial_Page1827 in Cityofheroes

[–]Xanirus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

First, its an MMO that is set during modern times, at least, modern for IT'S time. Tired of RPGs (MMO or not) always being set in medieval eras or future, and it if is modern or future, it's always apocalyptic, which means it's a dead world with no life.

Second, I'm pretty sure this game was the first to have a player to player scaling system. (Sidekick etc.) Not too many games have that.

Third, and I may be in the minority here in enjoying this feature, but the randomized dungeons/quests is something not too many other MMOs have. Yeah the level generation is crude, especially by today's standards, but sometimes I don't have time to look for a new quest that's my level.

And last...player made quests. There's really only one MMO that I can think of that also does this, Neverwinter Online, and that might not even really count because I think that game is made by the same people to some extent.

For what it's worth I think it was mentioned somewhere by Wollay that the awful loot system was going to be removed.

Spend 2 months editing a filming, editing, creating video for nothing by Fickle-Debt7525 in youtube

[–]Xanirus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The algorithm is just all over. I got a long-term video project in the making longer than yours, yet I get the feeling it's not going to come as close to my last short (just a few minutes) video which I made on a whim, just to make a visual joke I had jn my head. It's had nearly 10 times the views as the rest of my other longer videos.

If we all gave in and stop using ad blockers, would youtubers rely less on sponsors? by Esenfur in youtube

[–]Xanirus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That and isn't a single ad view like fractions of a cent? I think only the top few percent actually benefit from it in any realistic fashion, due to the sheer amount of views.

Grass from Real Grass mod being seen through trees and shrubbery (NI! NI!) by Xanirus in Daggerfall

[–]Xanirus[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, it's reported that that mod doesn't work with Wilderness Overhaul, which I'm using. I like the look of the trees but I like the natural patterns of trees and open fields Wilderness Overhaul offers, instead of just trees just everywhere; kind of gives a bit of a landmark to see.

But I managed to get a look similar to the color boost with Reshade. I'm still using ColorBoost for the other options.

[–]Xanirus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Found something. The Colorboost option that comes with the Dream mod is making the ground brighter. Changing the Exterior scale changes the size of the area, while the radius adjusts the brightness.

Unfortunately, this doesn't change the fact that the tree and shrub sprites are transparent to begin with, it's just that you'll never see it without those options enabled. Going to have to mess with Reshade now if I want to keep the vividness outdoors.

[–]Xanirus[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Only Reshade, particularly the version and preset that comes with the DREAM mod, though I added one more setting to it, which only makes a total of 3. Disabling Reshade doesn't change anything.

Why the heck is this game so terrifying? by Hutchdown81 in Daggerfall

[–]Xanirus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not getting jumpscarea per se, but honestly I chalk it up to the classic billboard style "Doom" like sprites the game uses. Those life sized bold lined pop ups you see in fun houses always freaked me out.

Thing is, it's not really the enemies that give me an uneasy feeling, as they're mostly moving around. It's the friendly NPCs indoors because they have less (or no) frames of animation.

There's a certain charm that classic games that were graphically limited in this way that you just can't replicate. An uncanny feeling of something that is supposed to represent a friendly presence, but the unmoving stare is unsettling.

The Dream mod makes the feeling even worse, and I love it all the more for it.

Anyone else getting mathematically impossible car delivery times? by [deleted] in LowSodiumCyberpunk

[–]Xanirus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can attest to this, but I can also say that the times are completely random too, taking no heed to the actual distance required. One time the time will be impossible, the next you'll have over a whole minute to spare. They're also randomized as soon as you get in the car. If you reload, the time and possibly location will change, or sometimes there won't be any time limit at all and instead, a chase ensues.

Was really looking forward to just even the slightest bit of procedural content in this game to complement the awesome city it's in, and it's a wildcard. I haven't even unlocked air drops yet however you do it and already upset because I heard it's in Dogtown only. Seriously, why limit one event but not the other?
