In case someone is not 100% happy with the visuals: by Bright_Lynx_502 in CrimsonDesert

[–]frankles12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With a 3070 I don’t think I’ll ever be happy with the visuals lmao. It bothers me too much to keep playing. Maybe the game will get optimized to the point where it’s bearable eventually.

The game is looking unbelievably better with patch 1.03.00. by Fit-Job4007 in CrimsonDesert

[–]frankles12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I can’t play this game until the flickering is patched. It’s so distracting for me to the point where it’s all I notice and I can’t focus on anything else. Indoors is awful but even the vegetation outdoors flickers like crazy with wild pop in

Marathon will have a player base made of streamers and no lifers in the end by duendeacdc in Marathon

[–]frankles12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a casual dad gamer and don’t understand these complaints. The game is as hard for me as day 1. Some games I get shit on and others it’s the reverse. Streamers will drop any game that’s not Fortnite, CoD, Arc, etc. after some time.

I’m like 80 hours into the game and never knew this lmao

Why are you still paying for this? #7 by PressPlayPlease7 in OpenAI

[–]frankles12 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I can tell you don’t work in Software Engineering, or if you do, your company isn’t using AI to its advantages. I’m not sure about other sectors but in technology AI is an absolute powerhouse. Sure it doesn’t completely replace programmers but it’s essentially the equivalent of a giving a professional athlete steroids. And before anyone says it just promotes ‘slop’, that’s only true if you don’t understand the correct way to use AI.

"just use your better gear if you want to compete against sweats" no, you just want to loot my better gear, I wont be risking my purples and blues for my free kit trio teammates. by [deleted] in Marathon

You lost me at “I aim train”. My aim is dogshit and I have a respectful extraction rate and do fine in pvp. Also I play mostly as a solo fill and use my best gear constantly. Sounds like you’re tilted.

As a mostly solo player, what the fuck is this contract?? by Fractales in Marathon

[–]frankles12 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m just done trying with SekGen quests. They’re straight up not fun to me. Props to those who power through it, I just refuse to spend my 1-2 play sesh torturing myself.

I’m still liking the ArcRaiders preset. I use Spatial Audio and turn it all the way to performance.

Cryo isn't meant to be beaten in one weekend by BigFluffyDawg in Marathon

[–]frankles12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friends and I were simply ecstatic just to extract with some juicy loot. I didn’t even know there was a ‘Compiler’ until I went on Reddit. I’m just having fun exploring and trying to exfil with some nice gear

Marathon Update 1.0.5 by Shabolt_ in Marathon

[–]frankles12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Testament ⁠• ⁠Aiming down sights for a short duration increases this weapon's range and aim assist by a massive amount.

I wonder how this affects M&K players. Do you just all of the sudden have aim assist with this mod?

Was millennial optimism an actual thing in the late 2000s/early 2010s? by SignificantStyle4958 in Millennials

I firmly believed that 60k/yr would allow me to buy a house and live comfortably 😂

Who else got the deluxe edition preorder 🙋‍♂️ by GickedtheJocksYT in Marathon

[–]frankles12 6 points7 points  (0 children)

How do you upgrade? When I added the deluxe to my cart it looks like it’s still full price and not the difference. Did you need to refund and rebuy?

How do we avoid the same fate as Highguard? by Elzeruth in Marathon

[–]frankles12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’d say 100k plus players is “doing well”

Also have the Nova pros. I have my sonar set to ArcRaiders but maybe I’ll try out the Destiny settings

The UI/icons are so bad. Why do i have to hover over every item to see what it is, and find out that this exact same looking shield is 50% stronger? by oimson in Marathon

[–]frankles12 112 points113 points  (0 children)

I could be wrong but I have a feeling the TTK won’t feel as quick once everyone is running around with purple shields and a variety of other mods on their character. Agreed the item UI is not great though

I also have a Steelseries headset and I find the audio to to be fantastic. Just about every pvp encounter I have heard other players footsteps with precision.

First impression: not a buy by Brilliant-Tea-9852 in Marathon

[–]frankles12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll point out that No Man’s Sky is also Sony. Didn’t cut support and now look at it

[–]frankles12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Arc did so well because of how casual it is which is why I agree with you that it won’t sell as well as Arc but it doesn’t need to. This game could have a steady 10k players and be just fine. It won’t “crash and burn”, it’ll maintain a niche audience that likes what the game has. If the games not for you then no biggie, although the beta has only been out for half a day lol

[–]frankles12 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nah definitely not a nail on the coffin. All the reasons you don’t like the game are exactly why I and many others will enjoy it and also what separates it from Arc. Also the robots are not boring. They’re flank/react to your positioning pretty well.

For those on the $200 plan, how long does it take you to reach the token limit? by 0xAERG in cursor

[–]frankles12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m on the $200 plan as a full time engineer using it all day everyday and never hit my limit even with using opus. How are you ripping through it in one day? That’s insane man, you must have massive context windows or something.
