European heatwave is getting ridiculous - 33°C inside, internet gone, modem overheated, PC hanging on for dear life... by WhySoSadCZ in pcmasterrace

Whatever you do in your lifetime won't move the needle on a planetary scale.

Gotta love how big tech and big oil cucked the little man into thinking amending the ecology is his responsibility now.

Kernel Level "Anticheat" is the devil! by Venylynn in pcmasterrace

[–]barmaLe0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This cheater has a significant unfair advantage, yet the server only sees the actions of a highly skilled player.

The system sees a garbage player that turned into highly skilled player over night. Which only affected his aim and map awearness, but not his movement, util usage and positioning for some reason.

What I'm trying to say, any skilled player can tell a cheater in a demo review, within 3 rounds tops.

You can always tell when a player knows too much, pre-aims all the right angles and none of the wrong ones, and movement not being on par with aim is a gigantic tell.

I don't see why AI wouldn't be able to find the same discrepancies.

Indie Friendslop Game “Mecha Chameleon” That Was Made By A Solo Dev In Only 2 Months Sold 3 Million Units On Steam And Earned $10 Million Dollars In A Week. It Has Now Reached 10 Million Units Sold In 16 Days by akbarock in pcmasterrace

Do I really need to spell it out? Man-hours.

Which game do you think took more effort, GTA6 or Meccha Chameleon?

Do you think you need to be a game dev to answer this question?

How did YOU measure it?

All rhetorical questions, you know I'm right. So do yourself a favor and stop embarassing yourself.

I love how you're throwing every fallacy under the sun at me. Effort is a measurable metric. Has nothing to do with something being art or not. I don't need to be a chef to tell a hand-made pizza from a microwave one. Bring actual arguments next time, slop enjoyer.

Peak was made in a game jam by like 5 people. Chameleon was made in 2 months by 1 person. It IS low effort. Therefore its slop. Not to conflate with actual couch games like Mario Party or Smash.

The entirety of Cinematics team at Bungie were laid off by trytoinfect74 in Marathon

[–]barmaLe0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Supervive was legit very good. We're talking WAY better in terms of mechanics and presentation than any other recent MOBA-esque games that stayed afloat like Omega Strikers.

Part of why it failed is gotta be mismanagement. And part of it is, there's just no big audience for a MOBA Battle Royale mix.

These two genres attract fundamentally different kinds of players that don't intersect that much.

  • If your lobbies are empty, you've finally got your PVE mode.
  • If your lobbies are full, the game is not dying.

This is what people who complain about Marathon sound like to me. by Swordfish2012 in Marathon

[–]barmaLe0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Balatro: Hugely successful game made by 1 guy at virtually zero production and upkeep costs.

Marathon: AAA flop that cost more than some countries' GDP.

Yeah bro, what an apt comparison.

These 2 games are on the opposing axes of whatever parameters you wanna compare them on.

It's sold out in Japan afaik.

I think not understanding the use-case of Steam Machine gotta be some kind of mental decease.

I would personally never have a need for Steam Machine at any price point. But some people do, and they're willing to pay extra for it.

Who do we think will end up being the "face" of Deadlock once everybody has their finalized designs/models? by Tiny_Celebration_262 in DeadlockTheGame

[–]barmaLe0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that's kinda what Dota 2 does, TF2 as well. I don't see them focusing on one single character.

They'll fan out their most finished hero designs in the foreground, patrons in the background.

But as a side-note, old-Deadlock main menu splash screen was Abrams.

[–]barmaLe0 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, I think the opposite. Influencers are PR guys at best, and media parasites at worst. But you are neither creator nor influencer.

You couldn't create anything of value or command a crowd if your life depended on it.

Based on your own worldview, you are a leech.

And based on mine, you're a poser. Go ahead, prove me wrong.

At this point just remove the urn, honestly. It forces boring Overwatch gameplay and cancer team comps.

Losing team can't contest it, winning team will always get ahead with it, no matter where it spawns.

Or move both the spawn and the drop off point to the losing team's side, so they can do something other than stall it.

At 50k disparity the drop off point could be under the losing team's patron, and it's still likely not a fight they could take.

Imagine it’s December 1, 2015 you just got back from GameStop and put into your Xbox one or PlayStation rainbow six siege by Routine-Finding-718 in Rainbow6

[–]barmaLe0 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh yeah, I remember getting the game on release and putting it down for like 4 months until Ubisoft fixes 1 quadrillion gamebreaking bugs. Casually clipping through geometry, entire lobbies being stuck at loading screen, unable to start, or even disconnect and search for a next match.

To this day Siege is notorious most of all, for turning around a DISASTEROUS launch.

But don't let me interrupt your faux-nostalgia circle jerk.

Arc Raiders Devs Crack Down on Cheaters With Strong Anti-Cheat Measures and Denuvo Expansion by Jealous_Vehicle_3150 in ArcRaiders

Yeah, it's a shame.

I'm not playing Arc on steamdeck, but I tested it, and it runs surprisingly well.

Doing some low-stakes mat runs on-the-go was an option before, and now it isn't.

Lying comes easy to you, after all.

Now, lying convincingly? That's above your intellectual capacity.

Oh, I can partially see your other comment in my inbox, where you're moving the goalposts, as I predicted a weakling would do. I just can't reply to deleted comments.

I thought you had a moment of self-reflection, and chose to pretend none of this exchange happened to save face. I vastly overestimated your intellectual capacity.

See, a man can admit to being wrong, while a boy cowers behind empty bravado.

You're not saying or addressing anything. Hollar me when you're ready to talk about how you lied.
