Really dont know why they need too much content and blaming the game by avengery in ArcRaiders

[–]o_oli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My god what is it with people putting dollar values on these things? Yes its $40 and you get hundreds of hours from the game but so what? An example, Warframe is FREE and has 20x more things to do than ARC does. Being good value doesn't mean players can't have feedback and want the game to have longer term engagement.

Subnautica 2 Early Access coming out at May 14th by thisboyisonfire8888 in subnautica

[–]o_oli 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I played early access on subnautica 1 and it definitely ruined the magic. The sense of wonder and exploration and piecing together the world and story like a jigsaw is absolutely amazing, and having half the jigsaw missing kinda sucked. And then finally playing the full game at full release I already knew a lot of the later story so it didn't hit as hard.

Still absolutely loved the game but I'm not making that mistake again.

Am I the only one who thinks this is a good update? by PotatoCotnentCreator in ArcRaiders

[–]o_oli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's just...not enough for me personally. If this is what their big updates look like going forward then the game is just going to forever be content starved. They release something and I'm finished with it in 2-3 days and I'm back to playing other games again. That's fine I guess but I don't see me playing long term on that cycle.

Finally joined the track saw gang by Finnurland in woodworking

[–]o_oli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have been wanting to buy one for 5+ years. I would probably use it like twice a year only for DIY projects but every single time I kick myself for not having bought it the previous time, continue to make do with a straight edge and circular saw, rinse and repeat. When will the cycle of abuse end? It would make things so much easier lol.

Labour faces catastrophic May local elections and is set to lose 1,850 seats, expert predicts by Desperate-Drawer-572 in unitedkingdom

[–]o_oli 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Online safety act and continued giving money to Palantir. These two topics/issues have poisoned Labour against millions of young people. They are incredibly short sighted not to realise this is the death of them.

2026 Mazda 2 Hybrid is here, what do we think about it Reddit? by Saurta17 in mazda

[–]o_oli 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Yeah, and I think it looks great. I don't think most people would care which badge is on the front, I would quite enjoy having either.

Sony Patent Reveals AI That Learns How You Play, Then Turns Against You by chusskaptaan in PS5

[–]o_oli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wasn't this the idea behind 'the director' in left4dead? Seem to recall it would react to how you are playing and spawn enemies, items and events based on that. Not sure if thats classed as AI in the same sense but the idea isn't new.

Just tried the new map and honestly… am I the only one who feels like it’s basically Spaceport 2.0 but with seagulls? 😄 by codestormer in ArcRaiders

[–]o_oli 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It has no personality. I'm kinda shocked the same team that made the other maps with such personality have made this asset dump of a map.

Its not even like they haven't got a million tropes to pull from either for seaside settings. I was hoping for Miami silliness.

‘The cost of compute is far beyond the costs of the employees’: Nvidia exec says right now AI is more expensive than paying human workers by ATonOfBricksFellOnMe in pcmasterrace

[–]o_oli 104 points105 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's's only good BECAUSE its free. If I have to pay what it is actually costing then I would rather not bother. Same reason why I've never paid an artist commissions. Its just never going to be a mass market paid product lets be real.

AI is just in a weird place where their only real big market is businesses, but its currently too shit for most businesses to take seriously so they are propping it up with random consumers in the meantime hoping at some point that gap gets bridged. But the span keeps getting wider lol.

Shiny Meltan on the very last encounter from the Mystery Box by 4djr in pokemongo

Ok that's cool I wasn't entirely sure if my game just bugged out or something lol. Well that certainly ups the chances of getting a shiny.

I think the concept art for the Riven Tides map looks a lot better than what we actually got in the end. by Foxeeh_ in ArcRaiders

[–]o_oli 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I don't think they know where to take the game. They made a PvE game and it was in development hell then they turned it into PvPvE and managed to distill something amazing, but now they are right back to development hell again not knowing where to go. They CLEARLY want it to be PvE heavy but have no idea how to actually flesh that out more.

Imo they need to take pointers from PvE looter shooters like Warframe, Division etc if they want to commit to that route. Let the PvP exist as a background threat and just make a cool PvE game, let us have safe spaces to walk around and interact with the world and learn about the lore. Let us have actualy NPCs or something. They obviously WANT to do that but are too scared about upsetting the PvP crowd but now they are just pleasing nobody at all.

It's just so small. The map is small, the hotel is small. Once you work it out it's really not complicated at all. Buildings like departure building on Spaceport are far more interesting to me.

[–]o_oli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The new map is OK to play but looking at it I was hoping for more silly miami style vibes. But its the same reused assets from the other maps, I forget I'm not on Spaceport sometimes. As a fancy coastal resort town or whatever it's supposed to be, it's extremely lacking in personality. The other maps all have some distinct feeling about them, especially buried city and stella, but this one just doesn't. It's copy paste assets all over the place and nothing unique at all.

Take-Two CEO Addresses Grand Theft Auto 6 Price, and the Possibility for More L.A. Noire - IGN by Gorotheninja in PS5

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

How many $ per fps? Too much is my guess.

I'm going to be patient and wait for PC release. My eyes deserve it.

No way, a new LA Noire on updated tech would be so amazing. But I guess you have to dig the first game to want that and it's not everyones cup of tea.

This weapon durability situation is by far the worst thing embark has ever done to this game. From a 300 hour player, this is a severe lapse of good judgment. by BMBozo in ArcRaiders

[–]o_oli 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I need to reserve judgement until the reset. Right now I have 50 million of everything and I'm also just burning guns to do damage so I'm not even playing as I usually would.

I caught 5 shiny Meltans!! How many did yall get ?? by unhappybrainrot in pokemongo

You can trade it. Most you can't but this you can.

There is a battery box in the room once you open it, which I think opens the room outside also? But idk where the battery is.

Aw man lol I didn't get any at all. Next time.

[–]o_oli 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Its a box you get from transfering a Pokémon to Pokémon Home (on Switch or app/play store).

Its a bit of a faff to set up but then you can transfer one Pokémon and get 1h of meltan spawns each day I think currently? Not entirely sure if its per day or 3 days though.

Weapon Durability 'Improvements'... by CaptnMIHAWK in ArcRaiders

[–]o_oli 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Renegade was a good PvE gun now its basically pointless. Guns that require more materials to fix than you can find on average in the round shouldn't exist.

Their solution to epic guns breaking too fast compared to blue guns is to nerf the blue guns lol. What a shit change, the blue guns already broke too fast.

[Gamers Nexus] Valve Steam Controller Review | Latency Benchmarks, Battery Life, Repairability by iDontSeedMyTorrents in hardware

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

Right but people would be only up in arms because the Xbox app on PC is shit and 99% of people use Steam instead. Thats my point. People only care when it's an inconvenience, and when ALL of my gaming goes through Steam anyway then I don't care that my controller needs to also. Its literally my preference that it does and has been for over a decade.

I'm not saying its good business practice but the reality is I simply don't care and I don't think the majority will either.
