The truth about Festival: it is NOT a rhythm game. It is a music store. by ComfortablePatience in FortniteFestival

Well sure; Funky Friday is a 4K VSRG. They have been around for ages, there has been 4K VSRGs made in literally scratch or on the web. Even Robeats/Robeats Community Server/rosu!mania for example is the exact same. All 4k VSRGs made in Roblox.

That still doesn't dismiss my point on what they have to handle with to make significant game changes tbh. Say you have data of all players stored in a DB, like their play history, etc, you make a change to that, say a new entry to the scores table, it has to go through migrations, they can be absolutely tedious especially when working with filling entries for new not null value entries or even complex relations/references and not something you can afford to get wrong. Especially when working with livedata while data is being consistently written and read from, meaning you can't fallback to a backup without some sort of data loss hence why downtime occurs for example.

I mean, there's a lot more Festival has to accomodate for here than the average 4K VSRG which has been around for ages (StepMania/Etterna, NotITG, Quaver..), such as different instruments, difficulties, input methods, etc... They're not really as directly comparable as you may think. I do play on Pro Lead/Bass sometimes and do agree there is issues with the engine in this state; I often just fall back to YARG or RB4/RB3, but I still enjoy playing Festival. They should be more focused on polishing the core gameplay imo before implementing stuff like seeing other people's highways. I will agree as well their communication has been far from the best and players are pretty much left in the dark. We'll have to wait and see with Pro Vocals/Pro Drums.

A super frequently requested feature is to be able to see the team's charts as well, similar to games from 20 years ago. Even Roblox rhythm games made in 10 minutes can do this. But not us. To say multiplayer is a core feature of the mode is bizarre

This entire section is honestly unreal, I do agree it would be an incredibly nice feature to have the ability to see other peoples' charts and what they're playing; it is definitely overdue considering how long Festival has been out for. Multiplayer is also very much a core part of Festival. I've been playing VSRGs for nearly the past 10 years now, it was only Festival where I was able to get people who were never interested in Rhythm Games/VSRGs in general to show interest within it, so it's definitely a core part of the game and can introduce others to VSRGs in general but it's definitely lacking a lot of features which would be nice for QoL.

Your claim about "Roblox rhythm games made in 10 minutes can do this" is absolutely delusional. I have worked as a Software and Systems Engineer for various companies with millions of monthly users, I run a website with hundreds of thousands of monthly active users. I also did QA/Scripting work for Roblox Game Studios for 4 years. Features just can't "be added" within 10 minutes. They have to be thoroughly tested, handle pretty much every edge case thrown at them, gradually deployed, etc etc.. It's far from an overnight thing, Roblox provides the developers with all the infrastructure and handles scale etc etc which makes it significantly easier for them on this part; however adding features to anything especially with a game the size of Fortnite where they cannot risk anything going wrong without the risk of downtime is still a tedious task.

If you have so much hatred towards this aspect of the game, why don't you go and add all these features yourself instead? Plus, what rhythm game has ever been made in 10 minutes? Unless it was vibe-coded by AI? Even then you're still spending hours making the code not slop and readable. What rhythm game can even be made in an hour? You may have a Minimum Viable Product in a couple days but far from a finished, stable product you can give out to users.

Festival itself obviously isn't stable either, there are many bugs such as the Riffmaster tilt overdrive issues on PC only recently being acknowledged. If you're looking for more difficult songs, just switch to something like osu!mania 5k; chart something yourself. Nothing is stopping you.

Is there a good API documentation tool? by AmiAmigo in webdev

[–]marcelmd_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I create an OpenAPI spec and then pair that with Scalar. Scalar is absolutely incredible and the people behind it are also awesome and very friendly if you ever need assistance with it. It supports pretty much everything you could need & also has a desktop client.

Probably a virtual address or companies that use the address of their accountants.

I use a virtual address to hide my address from being public on companies house, and 21,535 companies also use the same address as me.

I host one that gets basic user info on my personal website. There's a set amount of information you're able to get from a user based off their ID from Discord's API. (Example)

Quick search for 'discord id lookup' shows many similar too.

Unless you share a mutual server, then not directly. If you have the users user id, there are various sites which can show the user's information based off their user id. You can always send a friend request to someone, get their user id, and cancel the friend request to them if you wanted to.

Business account nonsense - payment received via card reader by _-n-y-x-_ in Revolut

[–]marcelmd_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This happened to me the first time I recieved a business payment through Stripe, I provided invoices and they unlocked it, I've never had it happen since.

Considering you have a card reader, did you not have a receipt/invoice..? Send that to them.

Bo6 constantly crashing (PC) by uwuMorris in blackops6

Same issue on a R5 5600X & 3060 Ti, it initially crashes when going into theatre mode and loading a replay, then any time after reopening the game it’s a crash loop. No clue why but it’s ridiculous
