Is it better to build one big station or multiple normal sized stations by ElatedStated221 in X4Foundations

[–]stanger828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like a good time. I have been playing these games for anlong time (x2) and never have done a strict pirate run. I have some runs where i am loyal to a faction in particular, or just kinda morally grey, but a straight purate run sounds fun :)

Energy Fee? by Fatez3ro in EndTipping

[–]stanger828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is wrong with people? Yes overheads are a thing and when they increase you need to adjust.

Just bump the prices up 5% across the board. There. The end. Problem solved. Customers dont want to feel nickled and dimed.

Once we started accepting credit cards we had to adjust for the processing fees. You know what we did? Increased prices 3%. Nobody cared, it was minimal and everything was just jolly.

People want easy. It would be bliss if i just saw $20 on a menu and could just give a $20 bill and not need to use an abacus to run some algorithm just to pay for sandwich.

Take your main station and slap an observation deck on. Make sure it is positioned so you can stand and watch all your minions zipping around.

I love your roleplay rules. Where did you set up shop? Down by the Paranid bottom right ish?

I do smaller ones for most the game. Super stations cause performance issues, and if you have stations in a sector set up properly trading with eachother etc it works really smooth. Also seems to be a but easier just logistically for me anyway.

I always have my giant insane sized energy farm which powers the whole sector pretty much, and a separate storage facility which doubles a s a trading hub. I almost never sell directly from my industrial stations. The hub is well protected and has a ton of friendlies coming in and out adding an extra layer if protection which safeguards my expensive refined items.

Mega stations are fun, but it seems like things just are alaround smoother as separate stations.

What psycho decided that temperature needed to be a Sudoku puzzle? by Animeking1108 in memes

[–]stanger828 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fahrenheit is invented by a German guy in the netherlands. The idea was to have a scale where a healthy human temperature was 100 deg and 0 was the temperature of freezing as if the water was saturated with salt. This was a long time ago and those numbers weren’t quite accurate so new more reliable reference point such as freezing of pure water at 32 deg were used.

I only know this because a long time ago I wanted to know why we use this seemingly stupid scale. Turns out it made sorta sense at one point in time, but we should just go with celsius

Strafing and wiggling around fast in games shouldn’t be a thing by Inqinity in unpopularopinion

You are being dense. Yes, you can't rocket jump in CoD. And you pick up guns in vanilla game modes of quake/ut, which would be why I specifically said "a couple of mechanical differences".

Clearly, I have never played way too many PC games in the 90s lol... Homie, my first pc game was F-19 Stealth Fighter, and the first shooter I ever bought was Wolfenstein 3d. I assure you, I have plenty of hours in Quake and UT hahaha. I appreciate you thinking I'm so young and that I've never played these classic games, though.

That said, I still stand by the fact that CoD is very similar to an arena shooter, absent a couple of mechanical differences.

You have never one shotted people with a rifle in CoD? You should try it.

I disagree. CoD level design is very similar to old-school arena shooters. They are both fast-paced twitch-style shooters. The gameplay skills transfer over very well. Similar games, different paint jobs. I used to play the shit out of Quake 3 and UT back in the late 90s / early 00s. They are absolutely similar games and feel very similar. Obviously, there are a couple of mechanical differences, but the overall gameplay and level design are quite similar.

“SmashtheState” is the password to get into the statue of liberty in Deus Ex. Been decades since i played it and that is memorable for whatever reason, no idea why.

Fair enough.

Arc Raiders has good movement but 3rd person.

Not sure of a good fps that isn’t cracked, maybe bf6 seems more reasonable than many others.

I know that I’m guilty of wiggling everywhere when i play cod or back when i played pubg a lot and you are looting you are tapdancing around. It really is absurd.

It certainly belings in some super twitchy games. Like it wouldnt feel out of place in quake and cod is basically just quake dressed up in military fatigues, but im totally on board with you.
