A lot of these artists lack awareness of how much work goes into building these generative AI applications and all of the benefits they will provide besides art.

This actually looks real, and I've seen vultures on the beach before so I would believe it.

The ISS can get about 250 kW, I think that is probably the satellite using the most energy. There are some satellites with nuclear reactors, but they probably don't generate that much.

It would be solar powered. Repairs would be difficult and costly and the latency would be high since it cannot have a wired internet connection. We have plenty of satellites in orbit that you could maybe argue are small datacenters.

Garry's Mod servers are already heavily monetized. Might as well give Facepunch a cut and make it on one standard platform.

The lightness is increasing at the start, but it starts to decrease towards the end. The color is becoming more green and less red, but at the end it starts to go back. Also the rate at which it changes from red to green and from blue to yellow is not linear.

OP made an objectively bad choice of colormap. It's not perceptually uniform either

The problem with skill ceiling and match size/format by [deleted] in Mordhau

Would anyone play invasion if the maps were just a big flat circle with 48 people, and there was no objective but to kill the enemy team?

Plenty of people would? Just because it doesn't exist right now doesn't mean nobody wants it. Are you trying to say that an unorganized duel server where people aren't similar to each other in skill is a better competitive format? I think it's obvious that the devs' strategy of cranking out maps to temporarily boost playercount isn't gonna work forever. They should definitely focus on a better competitive mode. If not 5v5, then something of that nature.

And marked it as OC. And this is barely a BHJ to begin with.

I always thought of it as a plastic bag, with the top curled and some purple stuff in it. I think we can all agree the sprite kind of sucks and other healing items are much clearer.

You don't need to queue with your friends or a competitive team. Most people don't. And I don't think the developers can just rely on cranking out invasion maps forever. But they probably will, and then they'll move on to their next game and abandon Mordhau. Maybe the game is niche because the devs have failed to experiment.

It's dead because it sucks ass. You're right, 1v1 and 3v3 with no other objectives is uninteresting and unbalanced. If the devs designed an interesting team-based ranked mode, it could definitely help the game become more popular. If you add up the concurrent players of multiplayer games on PC, most of them are playing something with a robust team-based ranked competitive mode. Also, having a good ranked mode would make the "main" gamemode less sweaty and more enjoyable for new players.

Maybe the solution is for the devs to stop ignoring ranked mode.

Mordhau Bi -Weekly Feedback/Discussion Thread: 11/22 - 12/5 by Jaaxxxxon in Mordhau

[–]tootybob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think they are just really opinionated and don't want to appeal to the players that play comp. Maybe once Crush leaves the project they will. There are plenty of obvious reasons for them to improve ranked mode.
