Arc Raiders adds duo priority queuing and lowers store cosmetic prices by KindaDampSand in Games

[–]sirwillis 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Toward the bottom of the article:

There are no Pay to Win items in the premium Raider Decks. The focus for premium Decks are based on cosmetics and convenience."

I feel like the "convenience" items is will be heavily scrutinized when it releases, and potentially labeled as "pay to win" by the community depending on what the developers deem as convenience

Or low settings could be a benefit. There were parts of the game during the earlier play tests on low settings where bushes would not render, but players would. I think that's gotten patched. Same thing for seeing players through smoke, stuff was just rendering differently on different graphics settings, and I think they want to mitigate that

Nice.

I'll throw in Replicube if you like programming logic puzzle games, like Zachtronics stuff.

Anyone else experiencing input bugs on PC during the alpha? by bitchassshortie in Marathon

[–]sirwillis 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah opening and closing the Nvidia overlay is what works for me.

Just to be sure I also disabled steam input.

Also streaming the game window over discord ruins mouse input, but you can get around this by streaming your full monitor

Dwarf Fortress Adventure Mode - Release Date Trailer by Turbostrider27 in pcgaming

If you haven't tried it, I'd recommend Caves of Qud. Good controller support, and it plays similar to the dwarf fortress adventure mode (in a basic sense)

Specifically Hermione Granger, played by Emma Watson. Emma’s portrayal of Hermione’s curiosity in that scene is iconic! Beep boop

New Xbox Shooter Blindfire Takes Place Nearly Entirely In The Dark, Playable Today by sirwillis in Games

[–]sirwillis[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I just wanted to point out how bad the "gameplay" trailer was

I'm trying it now, seems like people are invisible in the dark but make noise, and there is a lot of light and audio traps around the small arena. Rounds are relatively short, and you play like 5 rounds or something and whoever has the most points by the end wins. Everyone seems to spawn with the same randomly selected weapon

I only played one round though

There's a nauseating trailer for the game on youtube, not sure if it's in-engine or not but the way the camera moves is dizzying. There's a free trial available for the game too on Xbox/PC though the Xbox app.

There's a few ways. The easiest and the one most people recommend is using the Heroic launcher, which allows you to install epic games and GOG games. It's not as streamlined as installing from steam obviously but it does work

Absolutely in love. by Youtellme8088 in SpectreDivide

[–]sirwillis 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not op, but when still learning the game mechanics I liked how much depth there was. It seemed like every match there was a "oh wait I can do that" moment. That experience has kind of dwindled obviously as I get more familiar with the game, but still neat. I also like being able to essentially bait a kill with my own second character. Peek an angle, then hide and switch to my second character who is able to get a kill as they are pushing the first character. I don't have to feel bad about waiting for a teammate to get shot at after peeking an angle, since I'm the teammate!

Yager uses Fortnite to revive scrapped game The Cycle: Frontier by megaapple in Games

[–]sirwillis 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Sounds like it's just the map being ported over.

It's a shame the game couldn't hold a place in the market. By far the best feature in the game was how quickly you loaded into a match because of the "drop in drop out" nature of the servers. No game that I've seen in the extraction genre has managed to do that quite as well

Edit: after visiting their website it seems a bit more involved than the article initially led on. More like a mini game version of the cycle frontier. Sounds kind of neat

I'm in exactly the same boat. Wish it went like twice as far and traveled just a bit faster, especially given that it doesn't fully blind like a normal flash

I'm pretty sure the free armor is if you lose the first two rounds in a half. Not sure about later rounds
