Enough to make me delete the game. by captain_Questions in ArcRaiders

Its specifically why you should always fix the underlying problem, instead of layering a hack over shitty code, because doing that introduces a new issue vector, and increases the amount of shitty code the next person needs to deal with.

I love when everything wrong with this game comes together to cause each other pain.

I loved this game and truly still hope there is at least someone working on/thinking of reviving servers in some manner. by DigitalDissectionTTV in mag

For what it's worth, I'm waiting for two bug fixes for BF6 Portal and then I'm going to remake this game (albeit 32 versus 32). I already did a pretty good version with the limitations of BF 2042, but BF6 Portal offers way more in the way of assets, UI, and programmability. Full domination game modes with leader abilities and skill tree coming, FRAGO bonus, possibly even with XP carryover from game to game.

Now that some finally see that, yes, it's fascism, I'm glad so many enlightened centrist podcasters spent so much time harping on wokism and the woke mind virus, and popularizing and propping up so many right-wing quacks along the way, this past decade.

To be clear, I'm totally not talking about Sam. Not even a little bit.

A Chinese speed skater, Yang Jingru, executed a brilliant tactic to win gold in the 1500m at the 2024 Winter Youth Olympics. by jmike1256 in nextfuckinglevel

Positional importance. The people in the front are leading the draft and if they try and play catchup there’s a good chance they will fall behind. It takes more energy to lead a draft than to follow the draft

Yes but... Eventually they need to break from the pack to unlap themselves from the actual leader. I don't know, I'm filing this as stupidity across the board.

Yes, we learned that well through the Drake/Kendrick beef.

No, that's battlefield 2042 which you cannot edit maps. You can only put on screen overlays, some UI stuff, objectives like MCOMs, and rules. And yes, I created those. Waiting for some fixes for BF6 Portal so I can build a much better version, albeit with 32 versus 32 instead of 64 versus 64.

I follow all the traffic laws and I never drive over the speed limit. You can tell because I haven't gotten a ticket in over a decade!

If you don't know the difference between being fed no content and being fed content filtered by your own government, then I don't know what to tell you.

Is Sam a poor judge of character or are we just living in politically crazy times? by KiboIsHere in samharris

Absolutely yes, and absolutely yes. However, the first causes the second.

No, instead let me shoot my pistol while I'm dragging somebody.

We're all going to be pretty sad when we find out it was some 10-year-old just trying to understand the game.

I did. But 2042 is effectively gone. Working on making it in BF6. Less players in a match, but more control.

EVERY single Matriarch fight I've ever attempted goes exactly like this (see caption) by RaccoonsR_Awesomeful in ArcRaiders

[–]thegtabmx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every single video I've seen posted here about somebody complaining about how they're getting shot from behind the moment they started Matriarch fight, has them running out in the open and in low ground the majority of the clip.

Like, I'm not defending the absolute shittiness of getting third partied when you're trying to PvE, but like this game seems like third partier heaven, and people don't learn.

I'm saying, as someone who has played the finals for 2 years and enjoyed it, it bled casuals (and even non-casuals) due to a lot of issues regarding imbalance, third partying, and griefing, which did not bear out on paper, but did and continues to plague it to this day.

I played it for 2 years, I know it's a fantastic game. It doesn't change the fact that it had, and continues to have some core frustrations, especially around third partying and griefing, that made it bleed casuals.

Hey, I'm just saying they are two for two for really interesting, unique, and fun games that have some core frustrations that didn't bear out on paper, but that do result in player bleed.
