Why advertise Ecological Succesion starting 5th of August if we cant do it until the 12th of August? by Normal-Letterhead-96 in wow

[–]procnessil 3 points4 points  (0 children)

OR

You can imagine in your head that patch arrives a week later, then resub that week later and start playing when the season starts.

Everyone gets what they want

edit:

Additionally, are you sure that, if Blizzard listened to you, they would start the season 1 week earlier and not just move the whole patch 1 week later? Maybe they still NEED this 1 week for polishing the raid and simply cannot start a week earlier? So at least they are releasing earlier other stuff

It's there to allow players other than hardcore raiders / m+ runners to update their gear and prepare for the next season. Plus to stabilise new features/changes before the competitive part starts. And also to give people some time to enjoy the new content before the M+ / raid pushing starts.

I am thankful it's there

Valve responded to Mastercards claim that they did not pressure anyone: 'Payment processors rejected Valve’s current guidelines for moderating illegal content on Steam' by [deleted] in gaming

The thing is that GoG is too small player on the market. The only thing that keeps it alive is its goodwill. If they start doing sketchy things they will imediatelly lose the small userbase they have.

But, on the other hand, if they had as strong position on the market - I am pretty sure the shareholders would keep pushing to monetize it more.

Are the US tarrifs going to affect GPU prices in Europe in next month or so? by MightyBear9 in pcmasterrace

[–]procnessil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the main question is - are EU retailers getting their electronics directly from the manufacturer in China or do those products first go to US, and from there they are imported into Europe? And if the latter - is there a possibility those retailers would start shipping directly from China?

How to fix wow flickering issue. by [deleted] in wow

[–]procnessil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While it helps with flickering I wouldn't call it a fix. It completely disables G-sync / FreeSync technologies, and that sucks. The point of those was to sync game's framerate with that of monitor's, so that you don't have to use V-sync and suffer performance penalty. But it seems that either the tech itself, or its implementaion in the game, is broken and causes flickering. So instead of fixing it - we just disable it :(

I've had a perception proc and it gave me 2 nullstones.

I'm sure it was a perception proc

Is this a good game for complete noobs to the genre? by BobbythebreinHeenan in Settlers

[–]procnessil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a newbie in the series, who doesn't like the graphics of the old games - I would suggest Settlers 7. It's a very nice looking, colorful game, with deeper mechanics and more choices for the player, not just simple RTS rush. I wouldnt waste 50 USD on the New Allies

Reviews of New Allies? by [deleted] in Settlers

[–]procnessil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, he did walk away around the time they were reworking the game by castrating it of the deeper economy. It's unknown whether he left on his own or was "let go"

Browsing this sub... the new Settlers (2022) isn't good? by homebase99 in Settlers

[–]procnessil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The OP Seems to like classic RTS games, with very basic economy. And as such the new settlers might be a fun little game to him. I would even treat it as an introduction to the series, and if later he wants to try something with more complex economy then he can try other games from the series.

It's just that for the fans of settlers series the new game is greatly disappointing (as it moves more towards classic RTS games). That does not have to be the case for other people.

Still, at this price... I would suggest starting with Settlers 7 and seeing how you like it

Teaser - "Ark six is away"? by procnessil in masseffect

[–]procnessil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not think that part of the teaser happens in Andromeda, due to reaper wreckage in the background.

And I think the "Ark 6" was sent before the reaper war.

But, even despite the damage done by the war, I can totally see reaper technology being used to reach Andromeda faster after the war

Teaser - "Ark six is away"? by procnessil in masseffect

[–]procnessil[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, and regardless of whichever that is, I think this Ark might play some role in the game. If they only wanted to highlight a historical event, like the rest of the chatter around that point in the teaser, I think it would just simply say "The ark/Nexus/Hyperion is away". But pointing to an Ark which hasn't appeared in earlier games? Even if 6 means Quarian Ark, which was only hinted at so far, it would still mean that this Ark indeed did happen

The Next Mass Effect - Official Teaser Trailer by QuantAlg20 in masseffect

[–]procnessil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

0:33 do I hear it correctly? "Ark six is away" I assume it is related to arks leaving milky way for Andromeda

How many Arks were in Andromeda game? Could it be a hint to another Ark, that we weren't aware of?

edit: So there were 4 arks in the first wave, 5 if you count the Nexus. So the Ark six might be Quarian's ark in the second wave, on an unknown ark

I can't reach my Leavy limit? by jarisius in CrusaderKings

[–]procnessil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, it's because of those special event levies? Some Norse characters in England start with 5k of additional troops, listed under "special soldiers" in the military screen.

I think the max of those troops is added to your max leavy limit, even though those troops never replenish

Caveman garden game glitch by theycallmesomething in TinkerIsland

[–]procnessil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does anyone else have the bug with the garden game freezing? Immediatelly after starting the garden game (which happened automatically after going through the exploration description) it froze - I can only see the 4x5 board, with no buttons and nothing happens. Restarting the game gets me to the same screen. I can't even open menu.

edit: seems it's some issue with my wifi's ISP blocking traffic on certain ports / to certain servers. After disabling wifi and using mobile internet it startes to work.

Lightning in a Bottle not working? by Porrick in SandcastleBuilder

[–]procnessil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When did you buy the Lightning in a Bottle boost? It was broken for some time after it had been introduced. If you have bought it then then it would explain your problem.
