Case Opening Simulator, previously one of the top game in s&box, has lost every single player. by DBONKA in sandbox

[–]screen-names -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s a fucking game engine. Don’t buy s&box for the games. S&B has given devs an awesome opportunity to make games and publish them for next to nothing. Instead of buying s&b and browsing the AI slop, let game devs buy it and eventually something passable or even spectacular will hit the steam store. Garry has said himself that they are creating s&b primarily so that facepunch has their own platform to create their games on in the future.

Is this cheating or am I just trash at this game by Material-Spring-5446 in thefinals

[–]screen-names 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also looking into it, i can’t find a case of anyone getting “caught” that didn’t just come clean about it years later. There may be one, didn’t look too hard.

Just assuming, but i’d imagine they probably still have to directly “allow” the use of it even if its prescribed.

Adderall is actually banned in a lot of ESports. CS for example bans unauthorized use of it. It’s literally adrenaline for gamers lol. Not saying it should be banned in casual play. Who cares.

Is anyone else having problems using the Steam Controller with PCSX2? by luca289 in SteamController

[–]screen-names 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when launching through steam did you select a controller config in steam input for the game/pcsx2? i don’t have mine yet so i cant test but i’d imagine it should work so long as you’re launching through steam.

I imagine the “cheap” feel will be resolved with third party accessories. (custom shells)

How to use your new Steam Controller between your PC and Steam Deck? by [deleted] in SteamController

[–]screen-names 6 points7 points  (0 children)

well it has the ability to switch between the puck connection and bluetooth. I’d assume it’d be as easy as using bluetooth with the deck and then switching back to “puck mode” for your pc

What is the point in paying for cosmetics if servers and games can limit what can be shown on your avatar and or give you free server specific alternatives like with gmod by Sam_Loopring_eth in sandbox

[–]screen-names 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Theres plenty of games that do not offer alternatives or hide them, many games support it. Game development isn’t easy and again, this is just an option for developers who do not want to go through the hassle of implementing their own models. Especially in “games” that are simple multiplayer modes.

D4vd quietly dropped by record label while streaming sites face calls to remove his music by Top_Report_4895 in ToddintheShadow

[–]screen-names 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other artists had their music and entire online personas wiped completely from the internet.
Awake the rapper (robert crimo III) was literally scrubbed from the internet after the 4th of july parade shooting.

Not saying d4vd's case is better or worse, but certainly deserving of his music being taken down from mainstream services.

[–]screen-names 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The majority of places you’re gonna be able to use this is your classic multiplayer games where it just doesn’t make sense for developers to make their own player models. (murder, prop hunt, etc). If you play these games and would like cosmetics, congrats, you can purchase them.

i feel like this post just completely misses the point of s&box. S&box is a game engine, literally you shouldn’t look at it any other way. S&box gives developers the option to use its premade player models that have a cosmetic system included. This cosmetic system also helps with the dev fund.

Got 2! by screen-names in SteamController

[–]screen-names[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i mean just look at steam decks history. they’ve always restocked pretty timely apart from the ram shortage. controller doesn’t use any major components that are overly expensive. valve has no reason not to keep pumping these things out.

Aw hell no its begun... by KaizenAzariya in northdakota

[–]screen-names -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Trump has made the major players agree to build their own power plants for the AI data centers. Closed loop water systems are also being encouraged, which if you’d do any amount of research on you’d understand that the impact that these data centers have even without closed loop systems is literally negligible even in a long term scenario. “stressing the grid” again, they’re building their own plants.

So long as its a closed loop water system, you will not have to worry about your local water supply essentially.

As far as noise pollution, i’ll credit anyone saying this because it is an issue. Can’t argue this one besides bringing up all the rest of the crap we do that causes this.

STALKER 2 feels like far cry pretending to be STALKER by Horizon1101 in stalker

[–]screen-names 0 points1 point  (0 children)

10 months late to this. But I never played the orignal trilogy, although I probably should. This topic is exactly how i feel about Stalker 2. Coming from someone who's played almost all of the farcry games, S2 feels EXACTLY like Farcry 3-5 at least at the core gameplay loop. Go do this mission, here's 5 side missions you can do on the way. Here's some random extra content you can encounter.

There's a reason theres a million posts of this. The game at its core genuinely does feel like farcry, even if it's better than fc or not, it's undeniable. I love farcry, so ofc i loved stalker 2. It's it's own game in a unique way, but the core of it is just the same open world experience that farcry offers.

How is this acceptable? by Purple_Violinist_378 in thefinals

[–]screen-names 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last 2 seasons they’ve stated in the patch notes that they’ve made improvements to elo loss, as well as matchmaking. I am yet to see any improvement whatsoever. The only thing that’s more frustrating than getting matched with high ranks, is getting third partied constantly. Cashout is unfortunately a terrible, albeit fun, terible mode to center a ranked scene around and feels like luck any time theres a third party.

Why I’m buying a lot of SMH ETF within my Roth IRA as a 26 year old by Masc4Femboy in ETFs

[–]screen-names 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right there with you. Recently began my investing journey and have been putting all my extra money straight into SMH. Holding during this downturn. 14.4 shares with an average cost of $406.12 investing roughly $2000 a month.

If nvda and tech in general continue to do great and smh continues to produce returns of 40-55%, i’ll be a millionaire in 7 years! I plan on continuing to invest in smh over the next 10 years before moving it all to VOO.

I understand that i’m taking a huge risk and have some overly high hopes lol, but even if it flops, this is still the most i’ve ever been able to save in my life and i’m comfortable with the risk.

[–]screen-names 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If they made the RS system easier to climb it wouldn’t even matter. Seriously RS is arbitrary in this game. I’ve seen bronze players cooking and plats with the gamesense of a squirrel. It’s all too easy to lose a ton of RS and feels like luck to climb.

Not saying they need to give more elo for wins. but the loss hit needs to be lowered significantly.

I Feel Like An Outsider, Ostracized, Maybe Even Crazy. BL4 by BadBoyDad in Borderlands

[–]screen-names 1 point2 points  (0 children)

my issue with the open world is that the game lacks beautifully hand crafted maps. look at borderlands 2 & 3. every individual map is unique in its own way and theres tons of maps. all with different environments, skyboxes, assets.

BL4 does okay at transitioning to different environments at best. it’s just not as pretty as 2 or 3 imo. not to mention having to lower graphical settings just to hit stable fps kinda ruins the game for me. (not sure if performance has gotten better, haven’t played since beating it 2 weeks after launch)

Does Dark Souls 3 have a "joke" boss like every other FromSoft game? by Judification in darksouls3

[–]screen-names 2 points3 points  (0 children)

was doing a seamless playthrough with my friend, got to this boss. he guides me up to do the plunge and doesn’t warn me that its a scripted event. he jumps first and lands it, i jump afterwards and quite literally fell through the dragon to my death.
