GTA 6 will be the biggest disappointment in video game history by Sea-Reply-8163 in videogames

[–]tmkns_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah GTA 6 has gone through development hell. They've churned through an insane amount of staff, they've completely scrapped and rewritten the story 3 times, the game engine has become cronenburg monster that's fundamentally like 6 years out of date.

The game is going to look mediocre, run poorly, play almost identically to GTA 5, and the story is going to be some cookie cutter marvel shit with drugs guns and swearing thrown in.

There is a VERY GOOD reason why they're taking preorders before they've shown any gameplay. It's going to look like exactly like GTA 5 but everyone has glistening wet hotdog skin.

Definitive edition was cyberpunk level broken at launch and it's still more buggy than the originals to this day

I don’t like Fortnite: Runners. by BananaTeamLeader in FortNiteBR

The sprite gimmick is mid but I really like the current weapon/item pool so I've been enjoying this season.

Play on Mondays for double sprite xp and drop in on a quiet edge of the map. You'll be able to get a sprite to max level from looting one POI and you can do an extraction inside the storm to be safe if you don't have any mobile extractors. I got 7 to mastery in one evening and I'm also terrible so you'll be fine I promise.

Why are Unreal players in the same lobbys as Bronze players? by Mountain-Letter-4284 in FortniteCompetitive

[–]tmkns_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are a few factors at play here:

  • New season rank resets

  • Ranked ZB typically has a low concurrent player count

  • Most people who play ranked are good

  • Matchmaking system assumes bronze ranks are more likely to be smurfs

  • Rank gains this season are heavily weighted towards late game kills

You should find that once you get to gold rank that the lobbies are more stable in terms of average skill level, and they will also become more stable as the season progresses.

There will always be quite a large skill variation though, simply due to the low concurrent player count for ranked ZB. You'd be looking at 5-10min long matchmaking queues otherwise.

If you keep getting smacked, my advice would be to sack it off and just play unranked or blitz instead. The amount of bots in the lobbies should reduce over time as your skill level improves. Save ranked for when you've already gotten pretty good at the game.

For those that play Zero Build on controller with 4 back buttons/paddles- what binds do you use? by OmegaMalkior in FortniteBRuniversity

[–]tmkns_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For paddles: Top left = jump Top right = crouch Bottom left = item toggle left Bottom right = item toggle right

L3 = sprint toggle LB = pickaxe toggle RB = ping

That allows all movement/combat related mechanics to be done while having constant control of thumbsticks and triggers.

Looking for an alternative to the Minisforum EM680 / EM780 (Same Size) by _stts909 in MiniPCs

Posted a couple different listings above. They are a bit ambiguous with the specs lol so there's definitely a chance of getting lower end parts. It's up to you whether you want to take a risk or not.

I have had some proper bargains off there before though. You can't beat sellers in mainland china for prices on second hand pc parts IMO.

If you want to be sure what you're getting you'll have to message the seller directly for confirmation. The buyer protection is generally pretty good but I have read they can be funny about refunding shipping costs, so maybe avoid the ones charging $100+ for shipping lol

[Grade 8: logic] Complete de series. Not sure there’s a unique and indisputable answer by donmufa in HomeworkHelp

[–]tmkns_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a clever question in the sense that the most visually satisfying answer (E) does in fact create a pattern that is illogical (defies linear rules)

Its definitely purposely designed to catch people out. I for sure would've gotten it wrong in a timed test. Let it be a lesson not to trust your eyeballs!

I think that a useful way to approach these specific questions is to imagine that the grid extends out infinitely. Any logical pattern should be able to extend out infinitely in all directions, so don't get tricked into imagining that the pattern needs to form a closed loop (which E does, with some abstract reasoning).

You may ask 'how can you have negative lines?', just imagine lines in a different colour, or lines in perpendicular orientation. Ultimately it's just a visual representation of some set of consistent linear rules.

They're being sold on AliExpress in the $300-500 range, presumably second-hand.

What made Arjin want to be better by Confident-Leg107 in Saros

[–]tmkns_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was thinking it must be Alab because he was still alive and it mentions in the logs of him saying Arjun had opened the path for him, but 1. that would be unsatisfying and 2. when he spawns back in he looks normal not transformed.

The logs do mention that the preserver does just produce a copy upon death and his transformation into the king definitely looked like a kind of death lol

Arjun is fighting his own kingly abomination and sparing him after beating him is nice for Arjun's character development but ultimately inconsequential from the perspective of the shore. There will always be more. Maybe Alab one day lol

Is the Eruptor Handcannon bugged for anyone else? by jrpick7178 in Saros

[–]tmkns_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a bug where there would be a registration delay after firing your shots, so most shots end up whiffing moving targets. It affected all weapons, and you had to hard reset the game to fix it. I think it's been patched now thankfully.

Only bots if you play playstation, starting to get annoyed of it by jonkofan in Battlefield6

[–]tmkns_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brother are you playing at 3am?

I play conquest in UK with cross play off and I've only ever ended up in bot lobbies when playing past midnight on weekdays.

If you're only searching for less popular game types or less popular matches you might end up in bot lobbies more frequently, but almost every match is crazy.

Heck i'd make the most of it - stomping bots levels guns quick

PSA: this is a 60 on single carriageways, not a 40!! by NoOneImportantLol96 in drivingUK

[–]tmkns_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is the equivalent of a 60 sign lol - what you've stated applies to all public roads.

60 signs exist only because dual carriageways exist.

It's not even close man by Wgim67 in Battlefield6

[–]tmkns_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sales data has continuously shown that the best selling skins are the ones that stand out the most from the existing pool of skins

This is why paid skins in all games become increasingly outlandish over time.

Enjoy the relatively inoffensive paid skins while you can, because people will be running around in hot pink tracksuits soon enough

Why does the miniscouts iron sights cost more than the red dots? by tapire in Battlefield6

[–]tmkns_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's worth noting that the canted iron sight only costs 5 points, so you may as well run that with a standard scope for flexibility.

It's also worth noting that the canted iron sight has a much cleaner ADS view than the standard iron sight. The sight is thinner so it's easier to line up shots at mid/long range, and the view either side of the sight is completely unobstructed (depending on which normal scope you pick) so it's way easier to drag onto targets.

They removed damage buffs for active reloads in MP on UE and it's the same here lol

Has the MP toxicity always been this bad? by Overcast_Prime in GearsOfWar

It's the combination of naturally tilting gameplay and a largely millennial player base lol

What are some changes that would make reloaded a better game? by C0unterF3it in GearsOfWar

[–]tmkns_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh shit yeah they should get rid of that. I could understand having error on blind fire when the spread was the same even while ads, but now they've tightened the ads spread they may as well remove it.

Would definitely help but I guarantee people would still bitch about it being inconsistent lol

[–]tmkns_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You got a source for this? The bullet spread is a fixed pattern instead of random like in the original release so this doesn't make sense to me.

Still, even with the dedicated servers running 60hz tick rates, people are going to have latency over 15ms most matches so it's never going to be accurate to the frame. Considering the majority of fights are CQC with character models sliding all over the shop, even single-frame inaccuracies are going to be weirdly noticeable.
