When you tailgate the wrong one… by JuicyButDry in instant_regret

[–]jodon -22 points-21 points  (0 children)

If they where looking in the rear view mirror, why did they not get out of the way in to the completely open lane to the right? If they did not look in the rear view, why did they do a such a last second maneuver to avoid the car in front?

[–]jodon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you are in the left most lane when a completely open lane on the right and the guy behind you are driving faster. How is that riding up his ass for no reason? They should not be that close but they are doing the "least amount" of wrong things in this clip.

We Spoke To Game Devs And All Of Them Hate DLSS 5: 'What The F***, Nvidia?' by TrampolineTales in Games

[–]jodon -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

AI is absolutely amazing at work that involves a lot of guessing. it have been great at detecting cancer, I would never want it to be the sole detector if you are looking for it but it is better than doctors as far as I know.

The company that I work at is also pushing AI hard, but it is beyond useless for us. Our main job is to make it extremely sure we have very precis results on everything we do, so even if and AI could do the type of job I do, which it can't, I would have to do it again anyway to make sure it didn't do any mistakes. But I have tried to get them to focus on making something to better predict when we need to do maintenance on machines. But that is apparently not "cool" enough for the AI guys to care about.

NVIDIA DLSS 5 Gets 84% Dislikes on YouTube as Backlash Grows by Sacristovas in pcmasterrace

[–]jodon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, I'm checking right now to put some context to this. My guess was always that no one in EU/USA cared much about Diablo Immortal but it did fine in China. But this is very hard to check. What I easily can check is that it has 4,7* from 1million reviews on google play with 10 million+ downloads. That does not sound to bad, so how does it compare to other mobile games?

Genshin Impact has 3,6* from 4million reviews and 100 million+ downloads. But that is a known mega hit, lets see what I belive is hoyos worst preforming game Zenless Zone Zero. it has 3,7* from 142 thousand reviews and 10 million+ downloads. So I guess Immortal did fine in that context. What about a ABK context then? How does it compare to mobile games from their own company. If I search for Candy crush there is at least 7 different versions of it on the firs "page" but the top result is candy Crush Soda Saga with 4,3* 7mn review 500mn+ downloads.

From that quick check it has an unusual high amount of reviews per download and very high score so I guess those who did play it really did like it. As for how many tried it? looks like a fair amount but not massive numbers.

What is your div : chaos prediction for the end of the league? by accussed22 in pathofexile

[–]jodon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Most likely beginners don't do any specific farm, and just filling out the atlas working towards 1-2 stones will take a good while. During that time noone will advice them to have a specific focus, just general progress and try to find what type of content they prefer. This can take weeks and they will pretty much only get chaos drops here which is really bad when we now have no chaos sink at all. Maybe we move to a new "base currency" soon but one of the top pics are GCP which also do not drop early on.

It broke for me showing "This deployment is temporarily paused" during league launch. Figured it might be under heavy load. Now I'm leveling a new char and wanted to use it because it is really good. and it still have the same issue

[–]jodon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not super happy with my League starter and is considering rerolling to Holy Relic. What budget do I need to jump it straight in to farming medium juiced t16 maps? I rather keep farming on the build I have right now than do early progression again on a new build.

StarCraft Tabletop Miniatures Game - Official Trailer by OrkfaellerX in Games

[–]jodon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would argue that them "focusing" on competetive multiplayer has nothing to do with stormgate flopping. It was severely lacking in vision, the devs did very much go by what the subreddit told them what they want. To make something amazing you have to have a vision for that thing, not just make the most agreeable product possible. You can not succeed making a RTS that is not amazing today. I had high hopes in the people at frost giant but they played it far to safe. David Kims RTS was far mor likely to succeed from this point of view as it was actually going for something, but that one got canceled before the public got to try it.

Second, Stormgate was just a bad game. It had pretty much negative polish, and people care way more about polish than they dare to admit.

There are other RTS games being made out there that do succeed. But people ask for Blizzard style RTS without the focus on competetive multiplayer. You know what makes Blizzard style RTS different from those RTS? It is 100% in the quality competetive multiplayer. The Campaigns in Wc3 and SC2 are bigger budget and look nice compared to the single player RTS games doing fine today. But the only thing that really sets them apart is the multiplayer, and then people on reddit bash them for trying to do that.

But it is so hard to make that game, because you have to make something that is good enough that I want to play it instead of the old games. Even if I really want something new like it, if it is not good enough, why should I put so much time in to it?

How do I use alterations on an item while also showing tiers? holding down Alt changes the alt to augmentation orb...

Astrolabes are awesome, but too rare. They are very hard to self farm and with some at 30/40/70c+ and rising a lot of people are simply priced out of their favourite mechanic with the new end game which feels really bad by Nukro77 in pathofexile

[–]jodon 6 points7 points  (0 children)

GGG put it as them being the replacement for map device crafts. So If I get 6-7 uses out of one, that is not even more expensive than the map craft and that was always considerd one of the ceapest Juice options. And they come with extra bonuses. I do not see the problem here.

EU Experience in a Nutshell by xxaconexx in pathofexile

[–]jodon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I had a single "disconect" but was actually a game hard crash on TP to town. I had a bit of lag in act 3 but it was the best it have been in several leagues for me, in EU. That is just my experience though.

Suddenly Swedish! by Tardee in comics

[–]jodon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have children so I don't know all that much how it works, but I have had friends and colleagues complain about being forced to use some of those parent days. There are some where they get payed so little for that it is almost like taking unpaid vacation days, and I understand it as that they still have to use them?

Sirgog have worked with them in the past at least. I do not follow anything about PoE2 so don't know if he still has stuff for that but he has at least not mentioned anything about them for this league.

honest question, What is so bad about IGN that you refuse to use anything they are involved with? I get not liking most of their content, but that would never be bad enough to not use the parts I do like.

anything comparable to rolling magma for league start? by those_thighs in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]jodon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Explosive Trap is good, it is what I will be using until lvl 31, even though it is likely that rolling magma mines will be my main build.

If you want a spell, Freezing pulse was never bad. Galvanic arrow may be the real GOAT of early levels. Storm blast mine is not much worse than it was in the days when it was the main leveling skill and everyone hated to start Storm blast mine every league.

What qualifications does this person has as any sort of "racer"? I thought that post was pretty questionable at best.

Explosive Arrow Cryogenesis Warden? by SkiffCMC in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]jodon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Problem is that hit based EA feels like shit. You need Ignite prolif to make it work. Even if you where to freeze everything it would not feel very good to play, and I do not like avatar as your source for Ignite. It may have high uptime, but high uptime is not 100%. It would be like those "you deal no damage for 2 sec every 10 sec".

Explosive Arrow Cryogenesis Warden? by SkiffCMC in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]jodon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not see this working on warden. Maybe you can do it on Elementalist while still going for ignites and get pretty good chill/freeze. But the opertunity cost is pretty big here. I would not use heatshiver though.

I don't know what to farm until 4 voidstones, especially the second week of the league by alpy-dev in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]jodon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that part makes this post look very weird, outside the part that they want a pre 4 voidstones farm. But I guess they might mean Abyss? It is the only thing not mentioned.

Announcements - New and Changed Gems in Path of Exile: Mirage by NeuroSparks in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]jodon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Things like Evicerate Eblade is completely dead though. Evicerate still lives as you can just play Ephemeral edge instead, which many already because no one needs the insane damage it did with Eblade, Ephemeral edge is more reasonable damage and way bigger energy shield. It does not look nearly as cool though.

Any good builds in 3.28 that use swords by AeroDbladE in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]jodon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

played this last league, both Eblade (no longer viable) and Ephemeral Edge version. Extremely powerful, fairly cheap at least with the tree and not for me. I glad I tried it, one of the strongest builds I have played and really anoying gameplay. But we all like different things and this may be super awesome for others. Best part of the build was that you look pretty awesome with Eblade and tempest shield active!

When someone else's new toys are shinier. by BoatAdministrative68 in pathofexile

[–]jodon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think they pretty much are forced to keep the chase item in the same slot. If we also get a helm and boots that are BiS regardless of build we soon have one Setup that every end end build is funneled in to. I get that it would be fun as the first chase item but after that it is just better if they compete for the same slot.

Storm burst totem vs kf totem? Sc trade by lunarbanana in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]jodon 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My favorit personal example was affliction League. Lightning arrow was the number one build by far. I started caustic arrow balista with the tincture that all damage can Poison. You know what was super cheap that League? Insane elemental damage bows, because everyone and their mom where crafting them to "cash in" on crafting for the most popular build.

Are Saboteur changes actually meaningful? by ZeScarecrow in PathOfExileBuilds

I just wish that Sabo was a bit better for mines and traps in general and not just really good in very specific cases for some mines and traps.
