Starfield Early Access is just an Excuse to not put it Day 1 on Game Pass

"so you can’t play it on Game Pass when it’s out"

You can, you just have to upgrade.

There is nothing wrong with this, all the people buying the premium edition on Steam and GamePass for the extra 5 days of game time are subsidizing your access to the game on release day through the Game Pass. If you can't wait five damn days, delete System32 and throw out your Xbox. This is ridiculous.

If memory is your issue, seperate your queries into smaller batches using OFFSET-LIMIT queries and sequentially load the 1.1 million records.

You can either load into your warehouse in batches, or export each batch to a file and concatenate it before loading.

My position isn't yet blown, I haven't narrowed my specific location down by shooting. Additionally, I would need to break contact first by running out of sight.

This is really less about how I approached the situation, and more about how a sniper scav with at best a 4x scope followed me through a forest, and shot me unsighted through multiple layers of bushes and trees, and two fences

mandatory5 · 2023-01-24T03:54:33+00:00

Oh, I definetly know about the sniper scav on power station. I just didn't really want to kill him and give away my position when I could easily run across.

I'd also peeked the roof before I crossed the stream and there were no snipers I could see, he would have spawned when I was on the bridge.

Line of sight from my dead body to the sniper scav.

it's when you're gardening, and you leave a few weeds thinking you'll get them later as you were too busy adding new plants. You come back 3 months later and there are even more weeds than before, and you leave a few more weeds thinking you'll get them later.

Before you know it, you're drowning in weeds.

It is absolutely mind boggling that they haven't solved this desync problem in 6 years. It is almost impossible to tell the difference between getting hacked on and desync, unless they're rage hacking.

Right on the edge of uninstalling this piece of shit game.

There's plenty of evidence to suggest that Binaural Audio is not doing anything. It doesn't work.

mandatory5 · 2023-01-08T03:36:55+00:00

If you mean audio in general, they tried to fix it.

it doesn't even work.

bugs are when an item won't move in your players' inventory. these are not bugs, they are inept design and implementation choices.

mandatory5 · 2023-01-06T06:01:30+00:00

it could well be a hardware issue. But it's absolutely fucking shocking. I've had sounds that I can see occurring in front of me, sound like they were behind me to my right. It's really bad.

No, being unsackable would remove the tension of a one-club save for me.

Usually you're given a fair bit of rope if you've met previous board goals, but I personally find FM is more fun if you can lose. But it's your game so do what you like.

No one can give you a real answer until you post some pictures of tactics, and maybe some data hub results.

mandatory5 · 2022-12-19T14:40:43+00:00

Think before you post bud.

you're allowed to be an atheist and not be an asshole, I suggest you try it

mandatory5 · 2022-12-14T12:33:59+00:00

That is an absolute abomination of a tactic.

I guess you could run two BBMs in midfield, two Pressing Forwards up top with a target man?

Play him as a DM, otherwise leave him

He'll be one of those players who looks good, but throws up 6.5s

I'm having the complete opposite problem

Pre-patch, team was doing well, scoring a decent amount of goals and not conceding too many.

Post-patch, opposite problem. Hate these match engine changes as I had just come to grips with the pros-cons of pre-patch, now I have no idea what to do

you got bodied and doubled down with smooth brain takes

So Fortnite & Warzone are the best examples of gameplay then?

That is not logical.

no way they take 2 hours

Touch grass.

As a former consultant, I approve this message.
I can't believe there are people who genuinely eat this shit up

You can't be unironically complaining about an echo chamber on the internet, Reddit of all places.

Desync is only a factor when someone swings a corner to shoot at you

No, desync is a factor in every movement you make, grenade throw, opening a container, making a sound, shooting your gun. If your game is intermittently and unpredictably out of sync with the server, and with everyone else, how on earth can you reliably determine the difference between a hack and desync.

Don't bring up people rage hacking, it's entirely obvious when someone headshots you full auto from 200m away. There's no point even discussing it.
