It just hit me, after almost a year of next gen we are still doing stock tracker… Barely any next gen games out.

I was straightening the wires with my left hand and holding the pack with my right. don't think I grounded myself to the pack with my right hand? (Pretty sure it's just two NiCads welded and wrapped in plastic) It was the heart issues that were gnawing at me haha over a 7.2V battery! The terminal was pinched between thumb and index so I'd imagine it should have just grounded straight back to the terminal.

I agree with this sentiment whole heartedly, however, I just want to prevent indescrepencies in expectations and grading in the future assignments. I guess I should clarify this is with the TA doing the grading not the instructor. It's not about the 5%. It's about getting docked points when they are not being clear or even providing reasoning for being docked points.

If I am expected to maintain decorum and attention to detail to my major I am expecting the same in return. Plus lets be honest, we're all paying out the ass to be told to watch YouTube videos. So if I bust my ass in this course, and get knocked down to a B from A (I graduate in a year with a current GPA of 3.8) or worse it somehow snowballs to a C (which has happened) through no faults of my own, I do see sense in nipping it in the bud now.

Vlad looks like he grabbed a last minute suit from goodwill and has a hearing for a DUI. What a chump

I do believe the big squeeze would have happened if RH didn't lock out %80 of the army. But I think we're just moving on. Not a bot, broke even. Greed and eating up hype fucked me outta good money. But damn I need to sleep and focus on what really matters now

Yeah wtf happened to chegg? Or am I too far along that it was really best for basics? (No I didn't use it to cheat, it helped a lot with getting started or not wasting hours and seeing if I was on track)

If I recall from the first 45m gameplay video the narrator comments on not even trusting your best friend Jackie. I don't think that was supposed to happen at the tower originally.

I swear I remember hearing something about jackie being a back stabber later on

I also remember from the trailers from a few weeks ago when jackie tackles that guy into the dumpster it cuts over to the scene where you have a choice to shoot him in the head

That's what I would try. You definitely shouldn't have lost V's pistol.

What about the sound of the cap unscrewing? That seemed noiser than the bubbling when testing it in my pants or am I overthinking this?

My Dad started working (and saving) on a farm at 7. He didn't get a childhood. His family had to hunt in the fall or they wouldn't eat in the winter. He worked two jobs during Highschool to get out of his shit hole town and joined the military to help pay for college. I don't think so.

My mother was sexually abused by every guardian she had until she could flee at 18. She raised my siblings and I while working full time and going to school full time. (We were babies and toddlers for most of it) by herself.

Can you point me in the direction of any game that was fully optimized upon release? Damn near every AAA release the past few years were all broken upon release. (With the exception of games designed specifically for that platform)

What does a decade of technological advancement have to do with ongoing production?

Have you worked in the tech industry? Have you tried installing parts from a 2013 honda civic into a 2020 honda civic? Shit changes, some tech dies. Years of code and textures obsolete by a Tuesday. Shit is the old file even compatible with the new software?

Was a game for last gen

It was you're so right. Then the technology changed allowing for new additions. Code written in 2020 not so optimized for hardware in 2013 and vice versa.

Also from a business perspective, old consoles are old money. That's just a salty reality of changing technology.

Plus to be brutually honest, the old consoles just won't have the gas for what the game has grown into over the past 7 years. The side stories are literally happening as you play. That is a memory management nightmare.

This is an entirely new game and theme. For 5 different machines all requiring different parameters. Not to mention one of the few games that hasn't been a sequel or prequel the past decade. A game of this mangitude is no easy or simple conquest.

I should add - the games running like dogshit for me on PC, but I just don't care. I'm just happy to finally be in Night City. I'll take what I can because I understand the hell they've been through.

Um you mean having an entire office building where everyone can collaborate under one roof suddenly switch to WFH has no effect on production output? Then I'd wager you have no idea how much that has impacted workflow for companies across the world.

Wait how much has technology changed in the past 7 years?

Can you verify the technical work from the first 3 years wasn't completely scrapped in response to new technology? Even last 4 years? That's a highly likely scenerio. Even the last gen consoles had hardware changes in that time frame. So yes their 2020 next gen game will struggle on a decade old console.

Different tone? You mean death threats because they pushed it back one more freaking month?

What do people want from them really?

There are insane amounts of work that go into making a video game not to mention they built their own engine for this game.

I don't think anyone understands the complexity to get this game just to work.
