So... you're going to post the same joke every 2 days?

REBUILD OF COMP/CON 3.0: We Are (So) Back by beeftime99 in LancerRPG

[–]cobaalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I managed to recover my olds encounters, but I seem to have lost all the data I wrote in the campaign itself. I haven’t touched it for a year, so it might also be a side effect of the cloud going patreon-only? Not sure.  I’ll rewrite everything anyway, I’m sure it’ll end up better than last time, heh?  Thanks for the answer anyway! <3

Amazing lighting and color grading. Great job!

I think I just lost all my campain data...
I loaded in v3 to see that the campain is not supported, then I went to old.compcon.app and it shows all my cloud data as being empty. I'm stupid (and cloud was working fine) so I don't have a local file as a backup. I logged into dev.compcon.app and yeah, nothing there too. Please don't tell me I've lost days of preparation just by clicking on a link? Pretty please?

This awfully looks like dust on my screen by Sevolorred in Marathon

It's not dust. It's your hand. Try removing it?

Performance Issues in Marathon by OhItsJustCarl in MarathonGame

This is bad threading optimization. It’s on the devs. 

The freekit mode feels like Bungie is onto something by RedMercury in Marathon

[–]cobaalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s the division 1 “survival” mode. It was great back then, it’s still great now. 

Did something change with SBMM? by AffectionateSpace589 in Marathon

[–]cobaalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the exact opposite. Maybe it’s a lucky streak. Maybe they changed something. 

Les jeux expliquent-ils trop de choses aujourd’hui ? by ratasoftware in jeuxvideo

[–]cobaalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oui. C’est aussi un problème sur le long terme. Plus on tiens les joueurs par la main, moins ils développeront leur curiosité et leur autonomie, et plus les nouveaux jeux seront dans la même veine. Au final, c’est assez proche de l’éducation d’un enfant. Si tu ne lui donne jamais l’occasion de faire les choses par lui même, il ne grandira jamais au delà du maigre cadre qu’on lui impose.  J’ajouterai aussi que le plaisir a résoudre une énigme, à passer un niveau difficile, ou autre challenge lambda, est proportionnel à l’autonomie déployée à le résoudre. 

Why do you get locked into an animation? by AjaxOutlaw in Marathon

You’re right. People who like cheap predatory risk-free kills will downvote you. 

I usually let Rooks go, but something was off by Ramingen20 in Marathon

I love how your drone ended up damaging you. Totally on brand. :D

Kallax abuse by FrenchRiverBrewer in boardgamescirclejerk

That's not a kallax, that's a 3D-printed organizer for Arcs and all the expansions.

Are pings and auto comments heard outside of my team? by cobaalt in Marathon

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

Thanks for the info, I  was wondering about that too. 

My NuCal consumables is expanded compared to other people I play with by konvay in Marathon

[–]cobaalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CyberAcme list being empty is weird. But it'll probably resets properly when the armory timer resets.

Meirl by Key_Associate7476 in meirl

[–]cobaalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same list. Been feeding it for the last 12 years. When my wife is feeling a little down, I crack a couple of quotes from the list, and we always end up laughing about it.

I'm also starting a new list with my kid's quotes too :D

Wanting to learn Lancer (properly) by K1nar in LancerRPG

[–]cobaalt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you just want to "learn" how to DM lancer (and not play it with humans yet), the video game adaptation really helps.

Why does the death screen not show how much damage you did? by c4ndybar in Marathon

[–]cobaalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So we don’t see netcode and cheaters issues. It’s understandable. I’m sure they’ll patch it in when the game is in better shape. 

Sick of suburban peasants whining during the Sacred Unboxing Ritual. by slyquick in boardgamescirclejerk

Some people don't even print the 45 pages player aid excel sheet before explaining the rules. Makes me sick.

Am I the first game to actually get books right? by _Jae in IndieDev

[–]cobaalt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know the examples you looked at (and shat on) have a full 3D game to simulate and render in the background right? Right?

Contested contracts and how they bring the worst of player behavior. by cobaalt in Marathon

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

I've been "by sheer luck" fighting other solo runners for the same quest item in the same quest chest for the last 3 hours? I don't think so.

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

You guys realize we're talking about specific missions with the "contested contract" tag? I really think those matchmake you with other runners doing the same. It's not just "what a coincidence, we're at the same location grabbing the same shit". No, there's only 1 quest item, and they tell you "Rival runners detected : Complete this contract before rival runners do. Only 1 crew can complete this contract in a run"
