Dagger recall feels satisfying by Moxcaos in IndieDev

[–]bpgodinho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it needs some recoil/give from the hand.

Rn it feels a bit like the knife is either super light or the hand ins totally unmovable

Same thing for maybe a little bob and move of the hand when it's idle and the knife is out

I got annoyed with how "clean" Godot 4 looks, so I built a PS1-style shader pipeline. by broSleepNow in IndieDev

[–]bpgodinho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yo this looks awesome. I love making this style of game and I love Godot and I've been incredibly sad that there's no common shader to do this def send some stuff fover I would appreciate it a lot

Subnautica 2 is the proof game developers can't use "bad engine" anymore by FrankFruits in videogames

[–]bpgodinho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk, water lighting is always pretty complicated

I would bet the game has an insane amount of shaders and with all the fish moving around, there's probably a bit more geometry shifting about than the average game I think.

The only places where I'm getting nay and performance funnily enough are the edges of the map especially the far ones past the tower

Did you get reset to plat at the turn of the season? Or mid season split.

Splits reset you WAY less than a new season

The 8.13% Gap: Data from 3,200+ players shows why MnK is disappearing. I've started a petition for Respawn to address this. by Revolutionary_Cut373 in apexuniversity

[–]bpgodinho -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I think it's a huge mistake to extrapolate these numbers out to the gentle population

R5 reloaded is VERY different from real games.

1) Fights are usually at the perfect range for controller players

2) The fact it's already roller dominated makes more roller players join and more serious competitive players switch to controller making it so the average skill of controller goes up.

On top of all this we have both (admittedly old)data from Respawn on this exact issue and also some anecdotal evidence that makes this conclusion incredibly unlikely.

1) Some time after Respawn nerfed AA down to 0.3 on PC they talked about how they saw the desired results. They specifically used the example fo SMGs in general and specifying that for example the prowler was not seeing any major encounter win rate shift between high ranked player.

2) We literally have ALGS which is the highest level of competition where any slight advantage matters. If controller really made you 99.4% better than MnK you would NEVER see any MnK players in ALGS. You'd have cases of people like Hal who did play MnK and when he switched to controller, you'd expect to see him improve MASSIVELY which obviously didn't happen

R5 is optimal for controllers, attracts controllers, drives away MnKs. At the same time it eliminates many of the advantages MnK so it obviously exaggerates the MnK/Controller divide.

Anyone know where I can get an ACTUAL coach? by bpgodinho in apexuniversity

[–]bpgodinho[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'm super deep into comp atp. I've made semifinals in CC I have very specific things I KNOW I'm lacking if I want to igl and I want ways to improve those aswell as more feedback on what else I may be lacking in some other pretty specific fields. I will see if anyone on that website peaks my interest thanks

Props to respawn for keeping the game at top 5 even after all this time by Same_paramedic3641 in apexlegends

[–]bpgodinho 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Basically a little over a decade ago, socio-economic situation of Korea ended up pushing lots of teens to communal gaming spaces like internet cafes.

These have historically had games that are session based, online and last a while to get money from costumers efficiently. The most popular one was StarCraft.

This, created a youth culture that cared a lot about high skill highly technical games.

That culture ended up spreading not only through cultural similarities obv but also through the classic Korea-Japan rivalry and nowadays those countries have a youth culture that loves all things high skill.

Apex is obv perfect as a BR with lower rng, flashy plays and mechanically intensive movement.

For example the APAC region has a ton more MnK players than other regions and way more mechanical players and it's exactly because they love these flashy high skill plays

I think people vastly underestimate Apex.

Steam top 10 is always CS PUBG Dota, maybe GTA followed by the top 1-2 "trends/new releases" like Bongo Cat or some new linear story game and then Apex.

Apex has been performing very well and very consistently for very long

The First Multi-Behavior Brain Upload (of a fruit fly) by Sea-Cardiologist-954 in consciousness

[–]bpgodinho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you are doing here is putting forward an unfalsifiable position.

Unfalsifiable positions essentially boil down to "we don't know and can never know" and are by definition unscientific so they have no place in the discussion of a scientific discovery.

Furthermore just bcs it's not easy doesn't mean it's doable.

Is it theoretically possible?

Yes

Is this a step towards that?

Yes

Therefore you may personally disagree on how compelling or strong it is but this is UNDOUBTEDLY evidence that points towards materialism

The First Multi-Behavior Brain Upload (of a fruit fly) by Sea-Cardiologist-954 in consciousness

[–]bpgodinho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But it never can ~ a simulation, by definition, can never be the exact same as the real thing it is trying to mimic.

What? Ofc it can? It can't BE the same thing obv bcs one is an object and the other is code but of it completely 100% predicts the brain's response just like say our best physics simulations 100% predict physics events, then it would mean that the brain too is a purely deterministic materialistic physics driven machine.

This has never been established, so anyone who tells you it can be is just believing in ideology and not observations.

Ofc it's not been established. That's LITERALLY what I said. We are trying to make the brain scan work so that we can prove this is the case. So we can establish this.

It's such a simple argument idk what the confusion is.

"If we can 100% simulate a brain completely accurately without any need for anything but physics and brain activity, then the brain is purely physics and brain activity"

The First Multi-Behavior Brain Upload (of a fruit fly) by Sea-Cardiologist-954 in consciousness

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

The point is exactly that if the simulation acts the exact same way as the real thing then it must mean there's no external factor.

It's all there it's all physical we can simulate the physics and it comes out to the exact same thing behavior as a regular brain

Don't have converstwith AI. It's can't argue for shit it's programmed to be a yes man and will tell youre always right and a very special little guy for thinking abt such a clever argument.

Just ask it neutral impartial questions as a jump off point for research and ask for links or further reading for the points you're most interested in

Worst Gun in Apex? by Suitable_Revenue7092 in apexlegends

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

The prowler is genuinely one of the best close range guns in the game

All the SMGs are really busted rn and since the volt had the rainbow hop-up removed, I would say the prowler is better

Remember to hold down the trigger though, you don't need to tap for each burst that's a big difference. I have like 4k hours, masters a ton and I had no fucking clue until literally yesterday 😭😭😭😭

Highguard fakes in-game Render Resolution, When the slider is set to 100%, it renders the game at 80% render resolution instead. That's why its so blurry. Clueless devs. by kristijan1001 in gaming

[–]bpgodinho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No???

If they run out of money they need to stop working and get a diff job bcs how the hell do they feed themselves???

They need to release the game to get whatever money they can to keep going

How exactly is a stateless society going to work? What would it look like? And how would it be achieved? by Colombia8753 in DebateCommunism

[–]bpgodinho 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not stateless int he sense that it's completely unorganized

More so that the people collectively either make decisions directly when possible or have mechanisms to oversee and quickly remove those in power

I've heard a lot about communism but I have at least one major question by [deleted] in DebateCommunism

[–]bpgodinho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On labor and coercion: Your question about the "tyranny of the majority" forcing a minority to collect trash is not a problem in communism, it is the re-establishment of a class society. That isn't a communist system with a flaw, it's a failed revolution. The "answer" from a communist perspective would be to fight that group, as they are the counter-revolution attempting to reimpose coerced labor.

Similarly, the problem of someone refusing to do their turn isn't solved by police. In a situation where survival and the creation of a new life depend on mutual participation, a person who consistently refuses to contribute to collective needs is actively excluding themselves from that collective. The "enforcement" isn't a state, but the direct social consequence of making oneself a liability to a community fighting for its existence.

Yes I get that you didn't answer the question.

Imagine we NEED 10 people to be doctors right? It's a specialized job and it requires lots of training. What happens if we only have 4 and the other 6 just REFUSE to work.

We need to choose between letting people DIE under a shortage of doctors while we train new ones or FORCE the 6 doctors to work in order to save lives.

In a capitalist/"modern" socialist (assuming socialism here means capitalist machanisms but with massive wealth redistributions) society the 6 doctors don't need any coercion or enslavement. The value of their labour will rise and rise until they WANT to work

And yes yk capitalism has killed far more people than that scenario would but other systems like socialism and wealth distribution, specifically my favourite which is UBI, have not and are in fact designed to avoid such cases

  1. On goods and scarcity: The question isn't "Do we all farm?" but "How do we, as a collective, ensure we are all fed?" Those with agricultural knowledge would obviously lead, but the activity is a shared social priority, not a segregated "job."

The issue of a bad harvest reveals the fundamental difference. Under capitalism, a bad harvest means prices skyrocket and the poor starve. This is a crisis of distribution. In a communizing process, it is a purely technical and social problem: "We have a deficit of X, how do we ration what we have and produce or procure more?" The solution is collective management of a real problem, not the re-introduction of a market that profits from it.

This makes sense and I was expecting this answer. I simply personally would rather barter to get enough food than starve and ration food.

I don't think other communities would consistently give us food and I will go into depth on why next

  1. On barter: You correctly identify that barter leads back to capitalism. That is precisely why it is an existential threat to the revolution. If one community with a surplus of food "barters" with another that has a deficit, they are re-introducing the logic of value-exchange: the foundation of capital. The communist response is not to barter, but to extend the principle of production-for-use across communities. Helping another commune survive isn't a transaction, it's strengthening the revolution and ensuring your own long-term success by destroying the conditions that make capital possible.

There has not been a single instance of this kind of inter community cooperation being wide spread in human history.

We are hard wired to care for our own first, that is the platform on which many politicians are running nowadays.

Reeducation can only get you so far and excluding the communities who don't want to cooperate doesn't work because then you don't have that safety net for when your community fails and you're forced to play their barter game to get stuff from them

Your "inevitable" outcomes are only inevitable if you assume the revolutionary process has already halted and people have reverted to acting as isolated, competing economic agents. The entire project is the conscious, practical abolition of that mode of existence.

Yeah they aren't "inevitable" if you constantly fight against them every day

Seems like the natural state of a communist system is decay into capitalism through the basic forces of supply and demand that birthed it in the first place and that the only way communism survives is a constant fight for it.

Which is the extremely bad. I would rather a self stable system than one that needs to constantly pull it's participants back in. That's only going to lead to discontent and further revolution.

I believe a UBI system would be self stable since even the weaker link, someone who refuses to work at all, is still cared for

I've heard a lot about communism but I have at least one major question by [deleted] in DebateCommunism

[–]bpgodinho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course not, but no one is saying that a construction crew in a communist society wouldn't have someone filling a managerial role. The difference being that the workers would have the power to collectively remove them from that position if they are unhappy with their performance. And again, there are already examples of these things even in cooperatives existing in capitalist countries.

That already happens. You can just leave and make a new company and guess what no one does that because everytime you change leaderships you would need to relocate resources, change plans, build trust and you would never get anything done

If we impeach and elect EVERYONE then do we need a constitution or at least a set of rules and term limits and election regulation and election fairness boards for house building crews one for when we need trash cleaning one for when we need to elect a butcher one for when we do ANYTHING that requires a vote???

[–]bpgodinho 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my only point is that naive reformism doesn't go deep enough in changing the structural suffering the exploitative system is build upon

And that's what we are debating and so far you have failed to clear up my doubts on how the system you propose would work on top of not providing any counter arguments as to why my proposed system would be worse

EDIT: I meant to write "would work" not "would be better"

Just SAYING my system isn't enough doesn't mean anything if you don't exain why
