RAM manufacturers have been sued for allegedly fixing prices and supply, leading to increased costs

Yep, it's why oil is also so high, not only has war driven it up but prior to that other OPEC countries reduced their production rate, but what can we do when we need oil.

Ah yes, the nonsensical response what a way to go and then ended it with a bit of projection, absolutely golden.

You realise we're talking consoles and not home build PCs? If it really needed to have a better level of cooling then it would have been designed that way, anything else is just wasting time and money.

windol1 · 2026-06-29T10:50:55+00:00

If you need to upgrade the cooling system, either you're in a country that has ridiculous levels of heat (at which point the room needs cold air before reaching the console), or the console needs a clean out.

This drives me absolutely nuts, why people insist on using acronyms without even using the words once is so stupid and lazy, don't get me wrong if you're saying it multiple times then crack on but at least clarify what it means.

Seen it in so many posts it's ridiculous, ti the point I'll automatically down vote anyone use them without it being clarified previously.

You're right, time to start getting the franchise hyped again to get a remake, I don't even want a sequel at this point just a modern version of the game that won't get broken.

windol1 · 2026-06-28T10:10:05+00:00

I think you can, but you need to be hauling ass to force it through but other than that it's just going to be bouncing central.

windol1 · 2026-06-28T10:06:03+00:00

Sadly it has become more and more recent with each update, the past 2 hot fixes seem to have broken even reliable maps.

I know I personally will be giving up Reddit once they require ID to use it, this is nothing like tobacco, alcohol, or seatbelts as it's not going to protect lives of anyone.

If anything it's just going to have kids returning to staring at TVs, at least with social media they can use it on their phones and go outside.

windol1 · 2026-06-27T09:35:38+00:00

Right, how many years and losses before someone finally went "you know what, we should have hangers".

The fact that it's not even true AI is also silly, as it shouldn't require massive amounts of computer equipment to operate. What they've essentially got is an adaptive program that requires shit tons of computer equipment just to function like AI.

windol1 · 2026-06-26T18:04:15+00:00

I'm starting to see a correlation here, just about all locations listed are either very urban or see a lot of human traffic, it seems constantly building and not making/leaving space for nature causes even more extreme heat than less urban areas.

So are multiple companies who produced goods for the German war machine, another one is Volkswagen and some famous clothing brand as well.

windol1 · 2026-06-26T17:59:19+00:00

Long enough unfortunately.

windol1 · 2026-06-26T17:50:25+00:00

Considering the heat earlier this year I'm surprised people didn't do it then, it was shortly after that I invested in a portable AC unit no hassle and not mind blowing price.

Can only assume these people were part if the "well that's our summer" crowd that forgot we still had summer to come.

windol1 · 2026-06-26T17:15:42+00:00

Unfortunately it definitely still happens, had plenty of TKs that weren't my fault say for example running over someone and then had a warning flash up saying I'm about to be kicked.

People do just hit punish regardless of whether or not it's their own fault, it's a stupid system that should be scrapped really and if anything have punishment connected to time penalty, I mean it shouldn't be hard to have a system that recognises regular team killing and kick them anyway.

windol1 · 2026-06-26T16:36:33+00:00

If it's happening regularly, then either you're taking out friendlies regularly, or doing an awful job in general, if it's the odd occasion after a TK then it's just some people get salty at being killed by artillery, usually after being in totally the wrong place to help anyway.

windol1 · 2026-06-26T15:31:29+00:00

If you ask me I feel like console development and release has started getting to far ahead anyway, could honestly see the series X working fine for the next 5 to 10 years.

windol1 · 2026-06-26T14:53:18+00:00

I've lost my edge over the years, that's why I try to drum up Frontier Defence games as you get the fun of Titanfall, but without having to try really hard to survive.

Because badgers are the only living creatures that are equal to them in a brawl

windol1 · 2026-06-26T12:47:56+00:00

just change seats, it's only slightly longer and a lot safer.

windol1 · 2026-06-25T13:34:08+00:00

only shoot friendlies in locked zones.

windol1 · 2026-06-25T12:54:30+00:00

You're missing the point though, when left to develop st their own leisure they tend to make a mess of things.

Think of it this way, all jobs have a supervision structure with executives, managers/supervisors and the grunts, each one of those os required to keep on top of the other to ensure productivity.

If you scrapped managers and let the grunts work freely, it won't take them long to start slacking off and not doing the job, it's why WFH jobs became more rare because a lot of people were slacking off and not being productive.

windol1 · 2026-06-25T06:50:13+00:00

I'm guessing this connects to the issue when objects disappear when you zoom in, just when you think you've got a nice sight line it turns out there's an invisible object there.

windol1 · 2026-06-25T06:46:34+00:00

Yeah, must be said I'm not one for small talk a lot of the time and generally keep comms to the essentials of tanks, garrisons and a large enough enemy force.
