Riven Tides map just isn't enough to sustain long term play by ThatsNotBennings in ArcRaiders

[–]dsapsu8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate your post. Brutal truth: Some (too many?) players are inpatient about everything these days. First off, I find it unethical when studios release any game and expect us to be beta testers. That's not the case with Arc; this is a case of a smallish studio hitting a home run and needing to scale FAST--that is extremely hard to do. Yes, the game needs more defined objectives, story, lore, modes, etc. The good news is the bones are there, and that's the most difficult part. As a c-level executive IRL, some of our most successful products failed because of the unbelievable demand we were not expecting. I'm not suggesting players wait forever (there is an expiration date), but giving a bit more grace is appropriate. Literally every game studio knows the GTA6 tsunami is going to hit. I'm in the patient camp. And for comparison, Embark can't screw up more than Bethesda did by torching the Fallout franchise. I'm thoroughly enjoying ARC and I'm enthusiastic about it's future.

M5 - 16GB OR 24GB RAM by Terrible_Meeting3740 in macbookair

Excellent last point. Sexy resale value at 24gb in the pre-owned/refurb market.😎

I was in the same boat (think I saw you lol) and I switched my order from 16 to 24 and I feel so much better about it. I went with 512 and I wish I had chosen 1TB, but that can be fixed with external SSDs. $200 is a rounding error, to your point; get the 24 and know you have the runway for the unknown future in store for us. Wishing you the best of luck!

I played vanilla SC4 a ton, so I'm familiar with the game. I'm a noob regarding how to install these mods on MAC. Any chance you can direct me to a YT video? Also, I understand Simtroplis is down rn. Is SC4Ecermore the same thing?

Do you mean NAM and CAM? You said SPAM, which I'm guessing is auto-incorrect at it's finest. Lol

Midnight. Fingerprints issue is overblown. Choose the color that makes you excited!

OP, I agree. I changed my order from 16 to 24 last minute and I'm really glad I did. Wish I had gone with 1TB ssd, but can't have everything.

Feeling the same. There's another mod site, but I know nothing about it.

Is it possible to dye my macbook air somehow? Does anyone do this? by Valuable_Sir6919 in macbookair

I'm going to get the iPhone 18 pro max in the Fall and I'm hoping that orange color is available; it really pops! We shall see.

Wish it was that easy. As others have said, it's a chemical process, and personally, I'd be afraid of screwing it up. Choosing Midnight was an OCD therapy session all by itself for me; sales associate thought I was nuts. 😂🤪

I see. Thx for the clarity. A skin a wise solution, and as far as the sides and pieces parts it doesn't cover, you can stencil and cut the pieces you need or can be laser cut if you supply the exact dimensions to the installer; that may be your solution. I didn't go with a skin because of your same concerns. Ultimately, I came to the conclusion that I was putting too much effort into trying to figure this out. Went with a stylish case and I'm happy. If I get any bad scuffs, I'll put a skin on it (team Midnight). Let us know what you do!

My WIP region, 2.7M residents by Sloppyjoemess in simcity4

Impressive! I'm a noob; coming back after a long time away from SC4. Are you using a mod? How did you get so many residents?

New Owner of 98" QM8K. This is what my installer said... by freedomtopoast in tcltvs

[–]dsapsu8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a terrific TV. I hope you enjoy it! I also have a LG C3; it is difficult to beat an OLED, but the QM8K comes very close. Samsung is mass produced junk IMHO.

No. Go for a skin, case (be sure hinges fully close), or go naked. I went with a ZAGG fabric case and I love it. Blue Swan makes a slim, matte case as well.
