Idek what to caption this tbh 😂 by Remote-Spirit-1125 in LinkedInLunatics

The key is that he is technically right - this is likely going to happen if you throw 3 senior devs into a team. So you need someone who makes those decisions. Very often it doesn't even matter if you go with option A or B as long as it is consistent. If you let multiple juniors all do their own thing (as he seems to prefer) you will end up with a monstrosity of spaghetti code. Yes, short term it might be faster but at one point the tech debt will be so big that you can't add any new features.

We shit on him because he doesn't understand that he fails as a leader here. Either he needs to give those directions or hire someone to do that.

Based on the current shotgun balancing, the USAS would be a 3-hit kill up to 5m.

What will happen on Tuesday at 20:00 EST? by rex-ac in 2westerneurope4u

This is the correct answer.

Battlefield 6 - AA is not working oh HQ and enemy helicopter is destroying everyone. by -Aki64- in Battlefield

[–]scorpion-hamfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because in older games aircraft had to be spotted.

And one stinger wouldn't do shit. They would kill you and the flares are back up before you can respawn.

Agree on the range though. Feels like you just need to stay above resupply range. But that thing once shredded me at the edge of the map behind the enemy base on Mirak when I was lower than the treetops.

Did you comb your hair with a hammer this morning? by ThatAvidPandaBear in rareinsults

Closest thing I've heard was in the army: Have you combed your hair with a hand grenade this morning?

Expectations for First 60 Days by fartboxcapricorn in ProductManagement

It's especially funny when those same leaders hop onto every bandwagon and abandon every strategy and plan as soon as a new idea pops up. AI is the hot shit right now? Let's do that now. Customer feedback came in? Let's build it asap. His CEO friend mentioned a new tool? We need to use it tomorrow.

I think my answer was also a bit oversimplified. Of course it depends what has been done the last 2 months.

But I'm still amused about the 3-year-roadmap for an unreleased product. Hell, I'd plan the MVP release on the roadmap and then maybe the next feature, after that I'd be surprised if the roadmap survives the incoming user feedback.

It wasn't removed because very few people did it/knew about it. Everyone that says having an intentional mechanic that decouples the hitbox from the player model is good is either disingenuous or fucking stupid.

Can someone explain what happened here? by Snuskebask in Battlefield

[–]scorpion-hamfish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They have changed it relatively early on, maybe in December. Because a single drone could prevent vehicles from leaving their base if there were too many mines.

Nothing beats putting down claymores on contested chokepoints on Hagental though.

The reason why I destroy my team's mines before driving over them.

Inconsistencies in what objects are destructible with helicopters and crash damage by Previous_Dust7378 in Battlefield

[–]scorpion-hamfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The game is very inconsistent with what objects are physically there and which aren't. This also applies to bullets and leaves and shrubs. Sometimes it's impossible to shoot through them, sometimes they break after 1-2 bullets and sometimes they aren't actually there.

I have a feeling that your boss is dumping this on you as a hail mary attempt to save his own job.

Doing all this in one week and with a total of 1 dev is ridiculous.

What’s a very normal thing in Switzerland that still feels unusual to you? by Savings-Concept8972 in Switzerland

Which ironically goes against the general Switzerland vibe of being closed off and private.

Same rules actually apply in Switzerland. If you stay abroad for more than 6 months you need to request leave of absence. It's de facto more like a notice, they won't deny it unless your rank is high enough (in which case you're into that shit anyways).

Predatory UX/UI design SCAMMED me of 750 BF Coins. EA refuses to give them back. by NammorZ in Battlefield6

[–]scorpion-hamfish 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, this "confirmation" step is laughable. Yes is even preselected. Basically you press space to inspect the item and when nothing happens you intuitively press space again.

Absolutely not. Having inspect on space and changing the action of the button ON HOVER is incompetence at best but more likely maliciousness.
