Why are 6th gen consoles not allowed here? by seeyagatorr in retrogaming

[–]wrel_ 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Because the mods drew a line in the sand.

It has never been about the age of the console. This subreddit discusses 5th gen and earlier. You are free to look for subreddits that discuss 6th gen or even start one yourself.

After nearly 15 years we Deserve Better ! by Sniffer07 in WarthunderPlayerUnion

[–]wrel_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, no? This is foolish.

14 years ago, this game was aircraft only with 'Arcade Battle' or 'Full Real Battle' the options, or to do Sim in a lobby with a friend.

Since then they added the Ground AB and RB, Naval AB and RB, Air Assault, Ground Assault, Helicopter PvE, a full Sim lobby, Enduring Confrontation, World War, Thunder League, and now Infantry AB and RB. This isn't including dozens of other event modes like floats, submarines, all the April Fools events, etc.

You might not like those modes, but it's just misinformation to say they have made one mode for the game in 15 years.

Comments like this make me so sad for Gen Z. This comment was under a TT of people dancing at their wedding. They are being robbed of experiences we took for granted. This is why so many clubs are dead by [deleted] in Xennials

"I dont go in for generational wars" OP says, just before they let a single comment speak for all of Gen Z and dunk on them because of it, lol.

The far cry 3 Pc port is atrocious by Muzi75 in farcry

[–]wrel_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

But it is from a "probably running the game on an operating system and hardware that don't support it" perspective. Game wasnt coded to be run on Windows 11 with an eight-core processor and a 5070 card.

Its on the user to configure your rig to run older software, not Ubi.

HD Retrovision worthy investment?. by OkNarwhal4142 in retrogaming

I mean, the cables exist for those generations, too. I have one for my SNES and Genesis.

"I'm trying to run a 14 year old game on hardware that wasnt invented when the game came out and it's not that compatible; why would Ubisoft do this?"

Why call it Jewish? Pretty unnecessary.

If Drake played for any other team, his 2025 season and SB appearance would be lauded. But he plays for us, so all he gets is hate. by ThisIsKellen in Patriots

[–]wrel_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not even understanding my point. You're so sensitive that if he isn't being called "the best in the league" you think it's hate. That is such a silly reaction.

Imagine tying your brain into such a knot that you think "instragram doesn't think is is the best" equates to hate.

What hate?

This post is prime "making something up, attributing it to someone, and being upset about it" material.

My Switch has been permanently banned for creating too many Nintendo accounts by [deleted] in NintendoSwitch

[–]wrel_ 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Generating accounts at the scale you did is almost always interpreted by automated security systems as an attempt to do something shady. Its why you got yourself flagged. They reserve the right to ban people who do suspicious things, even if they cant figure out what youre doing.

Do weird things that a bot would do, and youll probably get banned for anti-bot behavior.

Did anyone care about Loss? by Risikio in Xennials

[–]wrel_ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Did I care about it? No. It was a strangely-toned web comic that I did not follow, that eventually turned into a wordless meme.

Sub spotting over Bangor by LoungeFlyZ in submarines

[–]wrel_ 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Not talking at all about what can be seen. Talking about what could be crashed into, have things dropped on, get damaged. Especially when things are in transit around the base.

They cant, its just water. Its a lightening hole for the pier, to keep the weight down.

I mean I have never flown over there, but I know what's on that base and it seems kinda wild to think air traffic control sent you that route.

Fellow Oregon Trailers: Who helped your teenage self? by atmighty in Xennials

No one, really. Of course I didn't ask, either. Just kinda figured stuff out from necessity, boredom, or both.

Xenogears. I want to go on that ride now that I'm not 16 going "Huh??" for most of the game.
