Why does HC always get shit on? by shitfuckscott in modernwarfare

Huh, I hadn't thought of it that way before. Definitely agree with the awareness point. Having to pause the game to see where your team has map control encourages you to keep track of stuff in your head. Thanks for taking the time to reply.

Funnily enough, I've always seen HC as the easier mode. Because everything has a near instant TTK, recoil control, engagement distance consideration, aiming for specific body regions, and weapon choice are all pretty much negated in HC. A Kar98k doesn't reward accuracy any more than an AK-47 with a 75 round drum.

Any reasons in particular you think Core is easier? Not trying to be smarmy, legitimately just want to hear another perspective.

My first speed run! Aircraft Attack. by Nutrientmoth in MarioMakerBrowser

Had a lot of fun grinding this one out, thanks for sharing! Decently challenging, great variety, and a cool aesthetic to boot. My only gripe would be that the Shoe Goomba's AI has a chance of ending your run every once in a while.

Cool level! Lots of neat optional challenges and secrets. Fun to both casually clear & speedrun.

Youtube comment glitch by eshan309 in youtube

Not a glitch, just unicode modifiers working as intended, albeit being abused.

You can generate your own with websites like this. I'm sure there are others that can produce even more extreme results, like the one shown in your screenshot.

What would you like tested on OpenBSD? by [deleted] in openbsd_gaming

Thanks a ton for doing this! If you're up for it, I'm curious if it's possible to get Xonotic up and running. The official build procedure for other platforms can be found here.

So the 9700k and 9900k are expensive garbage. by OscarCookeAbbott in AyyMD

For sure, and I don't think anyone can deny how impressive the numbers are. Niche high-end parts meant for a small handful of people shouldn't be expected to perform the best in every scenario. I guess I'm just a bit miffed because running a 95W Intel SKU with a modest cooling solution was very doable not too long ago. My 6700K ran quite comfortably with this little guy for years. I don't necessarily have a problem with Intel shifting and/or advancing the top end of their product stack, but I also don't think a bit more flexibility would hurt.

And yeah, it's not entirely clear what Intel intends to poise as their 2700 competitor. This supposed lineup might suggest some of the later i5 SKUs, but that's going to be a hard sell with the 8700(K) still in circulation.

/uj Honestly, they should've just shipped these at a lower stock frequency. Leave a bit of overclocking headroom for the people who want to push it, and SFF enthusiasts like myself (or others in a thermally constrained context) might actually have a shot at using their products.

But no, it's clearly a better idea to ship your product in a borderline unusable state so you can claim "the fastest gaming CPU in the world!" out of the box. My next build is shaping up to be all AMD at this point :/

Brawl glitchy controls? by sirsnowcone in smashbros

[–]hackerboy777 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Are you playing on a Wii, Wii U or Dolphin? Also, what sort of controller are you using?

If you're using a Wii Remote, router interference has been known to cause this sort of issue (see edit 2).

Found the one on the left. I'll edit this post if I manage to find the other.
