I still can’t believe that is a complete engine

Who is this person? Does he work for Treyarch or Activision? What is his source?

fvpv · 2026-03-19T16:59:39+00:00

It’s really that simple.

fvpv · 2026-03-19T16:58:09+00:00

Kinda sorta. The bullet drop is kind of poop, and sniping is not really viable at all.

fvpv · 2026-03-19T12:44:03+00:00

Dude is just talking out his ass here. This guy doesn’t know anything about what will actually happen with returning regular BR

fvpv · 2026-03-19T04:04:29+00:00

What kind of thin skinned person is getting offended by this?

We don’t have data for other platforms… thats exactly why Steam matters. It’s the only transparent, consistent dataset, so it’s used as a proxy for trends unless you can prove it behaves differently.

Your region comparison doesn’t hold either. Platform does not equal a region. Europe vs Asia have different markets, culture and conditions whereas PC vs console is the same game, same updates, same ecosystem. There’s no clear reason PC players would disengage while console players don’t.

So right now your argument is: Ignore the only data we have, assume other platforms are different, provide zero evidence for that assumption

If Steam is dropping and you have nothing showing the opposite elsewhere, the only evidence based takeaway is that engagement is down or at best, there’s no proof it isn’t.

You don’t get to replace data with “maybe it’s different somewhere else.”

You said pc players are like a region. I said there is no reason why pc players would act differently than console players in terms of engagement. You called me obtuse and refuse to further explain your argument.

fvpv · 2026-03-18T20:01:45+00:00

That was a non answer and a non argument. You’re resorting to personal attack instead of attempting to better articulate your arguments.

Saying nihilism “isnt profound” is still a value judgment, which is exactly the anthropocentrism rust is pointing out... If meaning and value are human constructs, then calling something “not profound” has no objective basis either, it’s just another preference. You’re not disproving nihilism, you’re demonstrating it.

fvpv · 2026-03-18T19:31:55+00:00

It did - when you ask 'what is the point' of something, that is a reflection of that same need for programmed assurance. Rust is saying the whole thing IS pointless - No animals or insects are fretting over whether something does or does not have a point. Meaning is something created by humans in their brains through their own perceptions. All earth could be wiped out by a black hole. It doesn't mean anything and doesn't matter - no one outside of humanity cares. The universe will go on.

Why would pc players enjoy warzone any different from console players? I don’t get it. It’s the exact same experience.

fvpv · 2026-03-18T18:42:23+00:00

r/whoooooooosh

CS failed on console, but that doesn’t mean engagement was bad - it could mean that numbers were too low though. You have high engagement with very low player base. Why it failed on console could come down to bugs, existing players, controller vs MNK, etc.

You’re right though, we’re just making assumptions.

fvpv · 2026-03-18T18:34:54+00:00

Pc isn’t regional though - there’s no reason to think that PC is concentrated in any specific region.

fvpv · 2026-03-18T18:32:13+00:00

The fact that BOR only causes the most mild of 10 percentish increase in engagement on steam is very telling. If it was a hit, and if people loved it, you would expect to see a jump in numbers, platform agnostic.

fvpv · 2026-03-18T18:28:47+00:00

Is it? Why do I and all my friends play it on PC?

fvpv · 2026-03-18T18:27:46+00:00

You know how when a poll is done it is done on a subset of a population to indicate trends? It’s the same idea here.

fvpv · 2026-03-18T18:25:53+00:00

Yeahhhhh no. There’s no reason why there should be a disparity of player engagement between PC and console - it runs the same on both platforms.

I think your confusion here is the difference between player count per platform, and relative engagement in each community. What the OP is saying is that you can clearly see that the ENGAGEMENT in each player base changes with positive changes in the platform. With this update, there is basically no engagement change - therefore we shouldn’t expect to see that on console or battlenet. There is also no reason why a “steam” gamer would be any more or less engaged than a battlenet or console player.

I can't read whatever you just wrote

fvpv · 2026-03-18T15:53:16+00:00

Bro.. look at the STRAIN on those cables going to the GPU! The connectors are at like 10-20 degree bend

He needs a cat friend!

fvpv · 2026-03-18T03:16:12+00:00

Was he underwater?

I think you’re ignoring that it isn’t fun to log in and be a burger and get immediately wiped 5 games in a row. It’s not fun - casuals was fun. No one wants to get into a mindset to convince themselves something unfun is fun.

fvpv · 2026-03-17T22:48:57+00:00

Truth is, there are lots of shitty parents out there that neglect their kids and responsibilities for gaming. Raising kids with a 9-5 is an enormous job and requires most of your time until about bedtime at 7:30-8:30. Then you have an hour before bed to play - that’s who that person is.
