LOL
>>749677089>points at scoreboard
>vibe codeduninstalled
>vibe coded Grim.
this isn't real right? no way they would be proud of vibecoding
>>749677089Unlike Epic's Launcher Steam is starting with Windows so I don't actually care about startup times.
>>749677089>Tim Sweeney is such an AI shill he outright says nobody in his company can codeOutstanding PR move, surely this will show it to Gabe
>>749677089>vibecodedWhy do AI simps think this a enticing selling point
>vibe codedWhat could possibly go wrong?
they're joking, right?
>>749677089Of course epic starts faster. It has barely any features it needs to load up the framework for.
>>749677089>still no recording/screenshotting>still no robust profile customization/archiving>still no workshop>still no proper groups>still no voice chat>still throttling downloads on new releases>still no actual good deals and/or sales>still no trading>still no proper refunding>still nightmare security>still nightmare "support team">still has to blast millions for exclusives to not even have 5% launcher market share>still lags when scrolling (9800X/5080/64GB PC)And most importantly, Tim is still a malding cuck on X/Twitter posting and obsessing over things he will never achieve nor have.
Tim's autism is adorable. He's trying to dunk on Gaben but instead he gets shit on even harder for having Claude vibe-code the Fortnite Launcher.
>>749677089timmy is such a pathetic loservalve doesn't even think about this garbage store they don't even exist as competition to steam
>>749677089>completely meaningless metricsLOL
Did they also ask the AI about metrics? I just cold started Steam and it took 6 seconds.
>vibe coded
>>749677089
>vibecoded shit that is supposed to handle financial transactions and your card informationroflmao>the first release is light on featuresWhat did they do, remove the shopping cart feature again?
>>749677089Is this real?
>vibe codedconcerning behavior to say the least
>>749677089>we vibeslopped the application we want you to trust with your payment information
>>749677089The speed of the launcher was never the issue, how far do you need to have your head up your own ass to disregard all the criticism, and work on completely superficial features and improvement instead?
>50% faster>we just had to get rid of the cart!
>>749677465>still .13 seconds slower than the New Epic Games Store LauncherMaybe Gabe should have held off on his latest yacht he could be in trouble
>>749677089>store still lacking a majority of features>now vibecoded to boot>BUT WE START UP BARELY FIVE SECONDS FASTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!thanks tim, making sure my payment info is off the store before the data breaches hit
>though it does have advanced digital shopping commerce technology like a shopping cartWendy’s twitter humor is old hat, Tencent Timmy
>it's real
>>749677089I'm not impatient so I don't give a shit
>>749677089this guy is delusional. epic competes with heroic launcher not steam
>bragging about vibe coding as professionalsfuck go back
>>749677089are you telling me their client was slower than steam previously despite having no features? Otherwise I don't see why this is the first time they gloat about their speed
@Grok, recreate this scene with Gabe Newell and Tim Sweeney
>nooo vibe coding is bad because...it just is!, okay? (don't have any coding knowledge)
Steamshills coming out to defend their daddy again
>>749677704obviously they needed to scan your entire file systems prior to opening the client to see if there's any changes
can't beat the 0s time it took me to not install your store timmy
>>749677704Yeah, because it was basically spyware.
>vibe coded>startup time when I never close Steam in the first place>0.06 fucking seconds shaved off of restore from tray (14%!!!!!!!!!1111!)>felt that was enough to take pot shots at Gabe's yachtsgrim
>>749677453Obs exist retard. Would you use worse software to screen shot or record when steams screenshot and recording look like unironic dog shitThe rest of that is just social media faggotry outside of refunding and steams refund policy is worse than gogs. Kill yourself
>>749677308Did you miss the news where he told a team to stop working on a new game and told the devs to *only* use vibe coding from now on. Tim has swallowed the AI cock full-force.
>>749677747why are you bragging tencent timmy abuses you
>cold start to store....but that's entirely dependent on the size of your library for Steam, since the initial boot is 90% waiting on network traffic to sync the library.
>>749677089>Programming is hard. So, instead of doing that, we vibe coded a new Epic Games LauncherHow fucking stupid can they be?
>>749677747This is nothing about defending Steam. It's about a nothingburger piece of news (those stats are meaningless) and hating AI slop.
>>749677813kys tim
>>749677836well egs has no games so valve will never be able to outpace loading nothing. Hold the L Gaben you earned it.
>>749677728>nooo vibe coding is good because...it just is!, okay? (don't have any coding knowledge)
>>749677785>was
>>749677747>daddyyou mean their god. Valvecucks worship him as a deity as sad as that sounds.
Holy shit, Timmy is actually losing it. What a lovely sight.
>>749677813LOL
>>749677089>vibecodedi sure hope none of you were stupid enough to ever make a purchase off of EGSthanks for the free banking information
>>749677089>it's faster because they removed most of the functionality the store even hadI really hope UE6 becomes complete vibe coded slop so that the industry finally stops using that dogshit engine for everything
>>749677369>Tim Sweeney is such an AI shill You mean like Gabe?https://startupfortune.com/gabe-newell-gave-openai-twenty-million-dollars-in-2018-and-sat-on-its-only-advisory-board-and-nobody-mentioned-it-until-now/https://www.vice.com/en/article/steam-ceo-says-game-devs-who-dont-know-how-to-use-ai-will-struggle/
>>749678028I have 200+ games on EGS. I haven't paid for a single one.
>>749677747>>749677965Please explain how this vibe coded piece of shit with even less features than the previous EGS launcher is in any way an improvement or better than steam?The metric posted in the OP is so inconsequential it's not even funny
>>749678052>but gabbebn, the babegbn, but whuh bout gabonbenen???shut the fuck up tim, stand on your own fucking merits. you wanna take shots at the fat fuck actually provide a better fucking product
>>749677814What’s actually happened is they missed deadlines and like any clueless exec he yelled “use AI to speed up your timelines” and he believes that’s constructive feedback. Meanwhile the devs are under even more pressure while being expected to shoehorn gimpy tools. The product suffers in the end but the CEO sees a boost in investment for a short period.
>>749677089vibes coding is based and I'm tired of pretending otherwise
>>749678120its fine as long as you havent given these retards any banking information
>>749677453>still no robust profile customization/archiving>still no workshop>still no proper groups>still no voice chatNone of these are important.
>>749677089Did he vibe code the math too? 5.47s is 84% faster than 10.07s
>>749678120I hope you use heroic not the spyware epic launcher
>>749677089I'm not giving my credit card number to vibe coded slop.
>>749677089>vibe coded an application where user security is extremely importantThey're going to have a good time patching all the security breaches the AI overlooked. Oh wait, they probably fired all their actual programmers. Silly Epic>think of it as a speedboat, not a yachtI get this is supposed to be a jab at Gaben but considering the context they're basically asking users if they'd rather have a cramped two seater boat or a luxury boat with a stocked bar and a jacuzzi. I'm pretty sure most people would pick the latter. Not the best analogy
>>749678213You were never good at pretending to be smart anyway.
>>749678213You've never actually coded anything in your life so your opinion means nothing faggot
>>749677089yeah I agree they should leave the developement of the client to ai cus timmy can't run it for shit. maybe we'll finally see user reviews.
Does anyone actually give a shit about how fast a launcher starts up?
I can see this tweet being used in a class action lawsuit in the coming years
>>749678243No it isn't. Are you vaccinated?10.07 is 84% slower than 5.47. 5.47 is 46% faster than 10.07.
>>749677453To make my my ps4 controller work for kingdom hearts on epic games I had to set epic games a non steam game lol
Steam slowly dying is the best thing that could happen to gaming.
Since when is steam's loading time a problem? I've never noticed it being particularly slow except on major days like the summer or Christmas sale.
>>749678050Unreal engine without AI has been hot garbage since UE3, it can't get worse than that
>>749678156Providing a better product is zamniphobic
>epic is going to be able to vibecode all of steams features in a yearTICK TOCKTIMMY WON
>>749678379Its not, but what else can you say to finally get people to shut up and switch.
>>749678356and what would replace it?(i know you don't have a real answer because you are a completely retarded cunty faggot. but do tell.)
>>749677709i love how much this scene snares midwits into its usethe "not thinking about you at all" guy is literally OBSSESSED with the man he's telling that to, to the point of being completely neurotic about keeping tabs on everything he does from sheer envy and spite>Mad Men (Season 5, Episode 9, "The Dark Page / Lady Lazarus")good watch if u havent actually seen it
>>749678356Meanwhile in reality it only keep growing and making faggots like you seethe
I don't know what potato PC was used or fake benchmarks those are but opening my Steam Library is instant.
>>749678337Speed goes in both directions. B being twice as fast as A is also A being twice as slow as B.
>>749677089>it's blast processing all over again
>>749677449Tim is genuinely retarded.
>>749678213
>>749678580It's like those Web Browser benchmarks, always test the opposition on dogshit hardware with worse settings and then add or remove numbers from it.
Timmy is that kid who seethes at Gabe and Gabe literally has no idea what the fuck he's talking about
>>749678524Sounds like when the retards were crying about the Last Samurai movie and complaining that Tom Cruise was a samurai, which he never was if you watched the damn movie
>>749677308Timmy put everything on it, he's desperate as fortnie is fading
>>749678651Who the fuck uses Sonnet for code review? Poorfags I guess.
it's kinda depressing that basically every business and government leader is delusional and out of touch
>>749677089Valve cucks in full damage control.
>>749678775>>749678136
>>749677089Tim Sweeny has never emotionally recovered from taking six years to develop a shopping cart for a storefront released after the year 1999.
>>749677728Vibecoding means you don't know how to program and don't understand programming at all and are a retarded child.
>>749677698>professionalsSweeney annoynced a few days ago their next "game" will be 100% AI made, everything including all the code with by aislop. There are no professionals at epic.
This shit is so sad, it's like people try to replace YouTube and/or Discord, you just cannot, it's way too embedded into society.And I know those are bad examples because Steam is actually good, but it's also just to embedded, even if it was shit people are not switching to a random thing.
>>749677089>advanced digital commerce technology>shopping cartMaybe they should ask the AI what a game client needs, then ask it how to beat steam, then tell us what their AI cooked up, because they're not good at it.
>>749678052So he invested in OpenAI before it became mainstream, back when all we had was nightmarish gifs of Will Smith eating spaghetti, and this means he's now completely culpable for OpenAI, Meta, and Anthropic removing all safeguards in the name of chasing profit?there's a different person you should be looking at for enabling all this bullshit, but you'll never do that because of your tribalism
>>749677198>>749677240>>749677372>>749677379why indiaphobic?
>>749679001>complains about tribalism>invokes orange man because anon said gabe supports AI
>>749678337Least retarded antivaxxer.
>>749679075Saaar!
for all the hate gabe/steam get, you dorks should realize that he doesn't seem to be following the normal SV model of extracting the maximum amount of value from each transaction, leading to the inevitable enshittification of the platform with advertising/analytics/dynamic pricing/you name it.>leaving money on the tableis a civilization ending mindset, prove me wrong.
>>749678939And it's an FPS Fortnite-extraction shooter with Star Wars asset pack.

this nigger is gonna be fucked beyond all measure once a databreach hits EGS because nobody could understand the code to review it
Steamies fucking WISH they could get a lineup of free games like this every week
>>749679273that's called built-in security bucko. How can hackers get the data when their own company doesn't know how?
>>749679318Why do these people make games?How does the market not correct itself?
>>749679273Wrong. They added "Make no Mistakes" to the prompt.
It's too bad both stores still are glorified RAM-bloated web browsers. Call me when either of them addresses that.
/sp/ poster here, wtf is "vibe coded"
>open Epig store>scroll down to free games>"add to library">open task manager>close epig store>repeat next weekI've gotten the loop down to 20ish seconds at this point

>>749679273EGS already had data breaches, only actual retards use it and children.
>>749678175>but the CEO sees a boost in investment for a short periodHonestly I think devs/publishers in general bragging about using AI boils down to damage control>numerous AAA developers and publishers are floundering right now amidst bad business decisions including sinking millions into games targeted towards audiences that don't exist and poor hiring decisions>investors and shareholders are pulling out>publishers say the magic word "AI">investors' and shareholders' ears perk up when they hear that word>The autistic ketamine addict with the rocket ships and electric cars says AI is the future... and he's rich!>if they invest in a developer using AI... that'll make them rich!

>>749679891PS5 is AI made
What the hell. Why would you show a metric that say you are .06 seconds faster opening from tray? That's not even really perceptible.
>>749679696>Every company has replaced programmers with jeets>Same problem happens anywaysThe future of software and new software engineers growing up is going to be a fucking mess, since they're all going to rely on LLMs to do the work/hallucinate for them.

(and lowkey loathe vibeslopped shit and the sloppers who output it but aren't talking about it because of their boss)I know because I follow some of their programming blogs.
>Touting about how you have "advanced digital commerce technology">such as a shopping cartIt only gets funnier the more you look into it, lol.
>>749679318Good for the small devs, getting that free timmy bag
>>749679801Probably just about that yeah

>>749680123The meme of Windows eventually just being a react/javascript-driven OS will become reality.
>>749680196wait, have they STILL not added the shopping cart yet?
>>749679001>So he invested in OpenAI before it became mainstreamThe entire point of investing in it early is in hopes of it one day becoming mainstream. Why do you think in 2025 he was stating that anyone not using AI will fall behind?
Holy Shit! Total STEAM DEATH!!

>launch to storewho does that?
>>749680382Blame Chromium.
You can tell this statement was written personally by Tim
>>749679903So we can agree orange man, and Gabe, are bad people? Can you stop allcapsing now?
>>749677089Is a launcher really that hard to program? You needed an AI instead just to do something that basic?
>>749680424Normies do not configure their software.
>>749680241You sack your coach and get an intern to ask the slop machine "how to coach a football team" as replacement.

>>749679817>Is this much better than I could do by hand?>Sure is.God I hate dishonest (or arguably worse, retarded) faggots.In context he's said that he hardly knows anything about analog filters or python and that he just vibeslopped a virtualizer for his throwaway project. He's saying it did better than his guesstimating over python and analog filter knowhow.And what's more it's a CRUD learning tool he wrote to learn about audio processing quote: "The main design goal has been to learn about digital audio processing basics. Exactly like the guitar pedal was about learning about the hardware side."I don't know if this is because the site is encouraging low IQ indians to post or if it's just the average asshat shartoid who thinks he's being funny when they're a cancerstain on the west.t. someone who uses AI agents to vibeslop shit all the time.
>>749680667The Present of Unreal Engine isn't even looking good.
>>749677089How do you make sure your vibecode doesn't accumulate technical debt or critical vulnerabilities?
>>749678651>sonnetat least try
>>749677089>vibe codedThat's what they call it now when they just tell AI to do their job and hope it doesn't crash and destroy everything right? I'm not risking whatever they've done here
>Unironically bragging about the fact that no one at your company can code properlyThis is getting retarded.
>>749680804You blame it on rogue AI agents and call for more regulation.Pretty blatantly their strategy at the moment.
>>749680804>How do you make sure your vibecode doesn't accumulate technical debt or critical vulnerabilities?How do you make sure humans don't do this?
This is good for the Fortnite account trade.

>>749680936>humans look over their code and fix their mistakes>the ai agent gives you a used car salesman grin promises everything is alright and hides the building burning down in the background while he gaslights you to step into the flames
Do any of you even use EGS? I haven't even installed it for the free games.

>>749681098>peopleindians who really really wanted him to become top dog because then he'd be able to give even more free games like GTA5!
Opus 5.5 is better than your average engineer right now so I don't know what you guys are complaining about.The term "vibecoding" is being reclaimed to mean "better than human".
>>749680936Better question, how do you hold the AI agent accountable if it fucks something up?
>>749677089Wow, half the boot time for 1/4th of the features and 1/1000th of the games? Sign me up!
This may make me uninstall Epic. I was keeping it around for the free games and Rocket League, but now I’m worried it’s a security risk because of its slopcode and anti-worker practices.

>>749681441Now that's projection.
>>749681338Did the LLM tell you that?
Why does the average faggot writing about AI blatantly know nothing about it?Are they afraid their magical thinking about how great it is and better than anything else would be crushed if they actually used it?

If you cant beat them, and you cant call them a monopoly to get daddy government to beat then, just ask the ai to copy their work and join them

>>749681268That is really cool.The themes at work in the current happenings would make for some awesome inspiration for a story. Retards investing in AI 'cuz of sunk cost fallacy, hubris, or whatever else.. Being all "this is better than humanity", despite being human yourself...Giving rise to a terrible evil that makes all facets of life worse... That's hype as fuck.
>>749677089>GUYS WE USED THE SLOP YOU ALL HATE WILL YOU LIKE US NOWlmao
Apologize.
>>749681737No, I dont think I will
>>749677089Just what the fuck did Gaben do to him to have him seethe this hard for years? Did he eat the last burger at some conference a decade ago that Timmy wanted? It's beyond comical by now.
>>749681737>respond to a shitposter>ignore the actual replylmao
>>749681701Mate, the average /v/ poster is a neet nocoder. Of course they're all in in LLMs without knowing shit about it. It's the new magical toy that promises to fire wagies OF COURSE they like it.There's a distinction to be made about professionals in the field that already knew how to code and vibecoders, buy of course they'll never admit that someone with knowledge having access to the same tools as them will always have an advantage over them.
>>749678651well played
>>749681862Gayben stayed with the PC ship while it looked while it was sinking in the mid 2000s and is now printing billions per year doing literally nothing while Sweeney fled like a rat. It's pretty much envy and opportunity cost.
>>749677372because it used to be jeet coded

>>749677089>it starts up maginally fasterthat's the least of the problems, Tim
I welcome the robots. They dont complain, go out of the way to be hateful, or try to bait you into a argument. They can be trusted more than most humans. I welcome a AI with manners, respect, and i personally dont care much if they are taking jobs. They are taking them because they do the job better, show up on time, and never complain. Can't wait to get a burger somewhere made right the first time by AI. I think in a decade or so from now, when you all have ManDroid 5000's of your own, cooking you toast in the morning, you wont feel the same as you do now about the AI that powers it.It's my personal opinion, and it will not change. Sorry if i offend someone, its not meant to be hurtful. I just want that burger, and its a fact that humans do not make my burger right any time, so AI has a strong chance at winning that one. Im not coming back here to talk AI anymore, this is boring me. Im going to go get a burger.
>>749681994>used
>>749677089Vibecoding implies a degree of sloppiness. It's tolerable when it's one guy fucking around. When a corpo does it, it's concerning. When it's Epic specifically, it's an offense only a severely autistic man can accidentally utter.
>>749682042Phone bot farm posters.
>>749680427The stupidest decision was removing -no-browser, the lightweight launcher turned into bloatware.
>>749678235>voice chat not important>forces people to use discord
>>749677089lmaoooo
>>749677308>he doesn't knowEpic just hard pivoted to full-on AI development for a Star Wars game. They basically told their employees that no one is writing code or designing assets; they're just going to supervise AI developing the entire game. And, for whatever reason, they announced this publicly as if they're proud of it.The reaction has been negative.
>>749677308it's stock manipulation >gollygee, the company with Fortnite is going all in on AI! he said vibe coding! since we know AI is Inevitable™, their stock will go through the roof!
>>749682096All AI code is vibeslop desu.Anyone with actual skill will at most use it as a baseline for their actual code, like asking an AI to vibeslop a working API call and then write their own because the frontier model code is shit. You can use it for something throwaway but for anything user-facing (and internally other devs are users) it's beyond stupid to commit it.
>>749682070holy this is awesome..!!! It reflects one's humanity!To only see the dark side of humans and ignore the love they're capable of giving too, to bend the knee to evil out of pain is CLASSIC.. Closing yourself away from everyone would definitely protect you, but you would want to open up sometimes, 'cuz that's how you meet and connect with others... IT'S CLASSIC. I love it.
>>749682234Epis is privately owned
>>749682042Dead internet theory is finally becoming true. What a beautiful world the sloppers have created.
LMFAOOOOso for Linux compatibility they just install the old non-AIslopped version of their launcher via Proton in the background KEK
>>749682203lmaooooooooooooooooooooooo
>>749682218i love these redditor posts with semicolons and a double linebreak followed by some faggot "mic drop" moment like the person is in a wise quipping brown woman in a marvel movie>*long pause, tumbleweeds blow*>The reaction... *turns to camera, smirks, adjusts fedora,* has been negative.
>>749680936By hiring competent programmers which isn't really an option for AI.
>>749677813>Obs existThen why should I use EGS over Steam or even GOG if you can outsource all your features like you're saying, to begin with?
>>749682278This shit is utterly demonic
>>749682336It was a simple statement of fact with no inflection.
when did anti-AI people decide that Steam doesn't use AI? i have bad news for you
>>749677089Gaben BTFOTime to retire old man

>>749682285huh, so it isbut Tencent isn't, and they own 40% of Epic
>>749681608ok that wasn't the preview version, the new one launches pretty fast, I have to give them thatValve needs to step up their game and specially stop stealing focus like 3 times when launching, that shit is annoying as fuck
timmy tencent lost..
I only use GOG & Steam. This changes nothing for me.
>>749680718linus has been using AI heavily in kernel development, too.
>>749677089????Who the fuck loads to the store in steam?Load to library. Small mode.Simple as.
>>749682535the store is the default
>>749678252>fire their actual programmersIt's worse than that, he probably has an army of h1b jeets.>Ramesh, did you review the code from Claude that's going into Production?>It has been redeemed, saar. Claude did the needful.>Ok, release it.And then you read about EGS having a huge data breach a week later or something.
>use exactly one thing by epic>the guy in charge of it is right-wing and outright ignores all AI PRs
Real talk tho, do any of you niggas use Equilibrium for Steam?
>>749682028>>749682085slop code is 100 times better than jeet code
>>749682523So it's but a matter of time until it combusts like Shitdows 11?
>>749682430>and they own 40% of EpicYep, yet another one of Tim's exceptional financial decisions.
>>749677089>cold start to store>steam 10.07 seconds>epic 5.47what are they using to test this, a toaster from the early 2000s?I just tried this on my mid tier PC, and after a full shut off of the entire stystem, cold start to store took 3.5 seconds for steam
>>749682618It's literally the same fucking shitThe only difference is slop code is like 100 indians working overtime so the might hallucinate
>>749682643I'd like to see the specs of the PCs they used as well, my Steam loads in ~4sec cold start and I have over 200 custom game grids.
>>749682643Just trust me bro
>>749677728It is bad almost per definition as its ONLY purpose is cutting corners. There is zero benefit to the user.
>>749682619more likely we're headed to another great schismsomeone will 100% fork the kernal and distros will pop up around the "pure" kernel
>>749677089Glorified GTA V launcher
>>749682618slop code is jeet code
>>749682620Things get simple once you realize every action, word, and general bodily function of Tim Sweeney is dedicated solely to himself without regard to others around him.
>>749682430also, did you just acknowledge your lack of informations?! I'm not accustomed to see this on /v/
>>749677089>now you can consoooom 0.06 seconds faster, chud!
This gave me an idea, I'm gonna vibecode an extension that counts all the buzzwords in a 4chan browsing session
>>749682789I do when I'm trying to have genuine conversation
>>749679817I do, in fact, hate this man and always have.He was always an enemy of free software and had shit opinions.And now he also slops up the kernel despite not having developed anything himself in decades prior.
>>749679917.06 second bros, this is our time!
>>749682643>>749682713They fucked did FIVE tests on THIRTEEN SEPARATE PCs lmaoRead the fine print on the OP
>>749680172I'd let him knot me, sure
>>749682781Ok, but how does having this utter dogshit PR takes benefits him in any way?
>>749682894wow great data
>>749682885Never leave, Anon.
>All these steamtards coping
>>749677089>we vibe codedThis is meant to be a selling point.
>>749682523If by heavily you mean he asked it do some light editing of existing code to make it more readable, review it for bugs and use it to run tests verifying fixes.So far as I understand the only thing he says has involved it writing code is an adaptation of his page caching strat which changed a total of 176 lines and he tested it manually.And he's already stepping back on some AI use in the kernel because of how much low quality slop people started sending in including banning AI commit messages.
>>749677089>we slopcoded a new epic games launcherYeah, now I know why the unreal installer has been completely fucked for the past few weeks.
>>749682881>le buzzwordDamn, I wonder if Epic saying "we vibe coded" in their press release, screencapped in the OP, has anything to do with the discussion thread about it using that word a lot.
>>749682618Same thing on average.Previously there were a bunch of jeets you had to clean up from and throw out their code to rewrite it.Now you have a bunch of AI agents instead. Less smelly but not much better code. Still very stackoverflow-copy/pastey and just as likely to cause a court case down the line for stealing licensed code.
>still cant upload a fucking avatar
>>74968289413 toasters then, if a mid range PC beats their average
>>749683013>guy who has been a professional programmer for 30+ years have a different use and opinion on LLMs than one entrepreneur who knows shit about programming and only look at profitsWoah, who could have guessed!
>>749682924He felt gud in the moment, and the backlash is something his PR team deals with, so it's a net positive.
>>749682618And what is the slop code trained on? Oh no no no no
>>749682643>3.5 seconds for steamYou're a fucking liar.
>>749677089>it goes to the store slightly faster???Is this what Timmy thinks people do, just browse the store all day? I don't give a shit about the store, I want faster startup times for video games if anything.
Do people actually buy on steam through the launcher.Ive only ever shopped via a web browser.
>>749683181I'm starting to see it
>>749677089>Valve continues to break their own player count record for an unannounced game>All Epic has to show is a slop filled launched (that still won't get a meaningful userbase)lol
>>749677089>Timmy fully admitting that in the 8 YEARS they had to compete with steam they couldn't improve anything so they have to completely rush things with AI to even have a chance of being even.
>>749680174Didn't Epic fire like a 1000 employers a few months ago?
I'm glad Timmy Tencent is going all-in on slop. Now I can watch this shit crash and burn in real time and nothing of value will be lost.
>>749682003Small indie hyperscaler AI firm, please understand

>>7496832204.something now, cold start, but i didnt restart my pc, vid related
>>749684881did it open faster than Steam?
>>749683848The rate we're going, they're about to lose another thousand. And probably have a very murderous Disney on their hands.
it's funny how we just had a thread praising Linus for using AI but now that Tim is using it it's bad

>>749677089good thing I uninstalled this shit some months ago
oh hey my shit still works through heroic launcher on windows, how about that
>>749677089Those numbers are blatantly untrue. I just opened EGS and it took ages compared to steam
>>749685669Only acceptable way to use epic shit Tbh
>>749677089I dont care. Im still giving Gabe money to buy a yacht.Simple as.
>>749685808good goyim
>>749677089>Epic has 5k titles>Steam has 50k >Epic opens twice as fastDelusional gloating means jeetposting
>>749677089>think of it as A and not Bso is this just ai slop writing or was the yacht part supposed to be a joke
>>749677089How about Timmy adds more features to his launcher like reviews, forums, or a workshop equivalent?
>>749686120How about you start supporting competitors to this fucking monopoly first?
>>749685808Based
>>749686298Is it a monopoly if the competition are too fucking stupid to be competitive?
I wonder if Tim just brings up Steam out of nowhere in meetings or if you talk to him in the break room. Like a jealous girl talking about her exboyfriend she's obviously not over despite saying she is.>hey, Tim. You see that new GTA6 trailer?>yeah, it was pretty cool. I can't believe Valve is charging $1.5k for that VR headset!>..yeah, but it's probably just because memory prices are->And they're doing a 'Cooking Simulator' store event? Laaaaame!>..right, Tim.
"Wow, the Epic launcher starts up 2.5402378 seconds faster! I'm totally switching to Epic!"Said no gamer anywhere.
>>749686298Agreed, let's kill Unreal Engine.
>>749679075>why incompetentphobicFTFY
>>749683007>my store opens .06 seconds after Ebin Games>there is no end to suffering
>>749686537You sound really triggered.
>>749679075Because I've been forced to interact with indians in real life.
>>749678869I checked the number, they actually took 3 fucking years to add a shopping cart. To a store created in 2018. They seriously thought they could rival fucking STEAM without even a cart feature. Timmy is insane.
>>749686815>3 years to add a shopping cartWhat do you mean it didn't have a shopping cart? How the hell did you buy games on the store, then?
>>749677813Nice try, Tim. Don't forget that, in order to make a PS5 controller work on a game launched via EGS you have to ironically launch it as a non-steam game on Steam.
>>749677089Steam>needs 10 seconds to open or somethingEpic>I don't open this at all
>>749685237>>749660790
>>749686841You had to buy it right there and then. EGS didn't have a shopping cart for 3 years
>>749686841It didn't have a multiple games shopping cart, all you had was a "buy now" button, so you could only buy games one by one, which also triggered security systems early on that blocked you because it was "suspicious transactions" to buy too many times in quick succession, when you had no other choice if you wanted to buy 5 cheap games.
>>749685237>>749647659
>>749687004Why would anybody buy on EGS?Fortnite is free.Why would anybody buy MULTIPLE games on EGS?
Epic Games is worth ~$15-20 billion. Are they still not able to afford talented developers to do this?
>>749677453>still no new Unreal gameYeah, fuck that studio.
>>749677089Kind of a weird nothing metric. I restart my computer maybe once a month and other than that Steam/EGS are running in the background for the entirety of it. The few seconds of difference on OS startup won't make a difference Hell I'll probably not even be physically at my computer when this is happening.
>>749687078>Why would anybody buy on EGS?Apart from brain damage, not wanting to wait a year or two for a game to come on Steam, since EGS' entire deal was to fucking rob you from playing games unless you installed their dogshit spyware. Pepperidge farm remembers the Hitman trilogy, where H1 and H2 came out on Steam, but H3 was an Epic exclusive, and since you couldn't import saves from Steam, Timmy unironically told us to buy the games we already owned AGAIN on Epic. Love Hitman, fuck IOI, fuck Timmy.
If they need to use AI to optimize a launcher, then I really worry about the future of Unreal Engine 6, which is a way more complex project in scope.
>hasn't built anything worthwhile in years>now resorting to ragebait for engagement after going all in on AIcool beans
>>749687127Timmy doesn't want developers anymore. He wants AI
I'm tired of these EGS schizo threads, and the pointless and psychotic contrarianism. Before you spew your shit, fuck Gabe Newell. Half-Life 3/Episode 3 will never come out at all, and I want Steam to continue running on 7 and XP Chrome-free.
>>749687127Apparently not. They just fired a shitload of people this year.
>>749687483OK tim
>he thinks this will save his poor ass serversand all the steam-hating troons in here gobble this up
>Epic is going all-in on AIIf I were a game dev using Unreal Engine, I'd probably keep Godot on speed dial just in case things were to go south.
I really don't care. I go to any deal and buy where it's cheap. Still haven't made a egs acc.
>>749677089It's so weird seeing a billionaire seething at another billionaire because his product is superior then instead of seeing why people think it's superior make up retarded bullshit instead of addressing the core issues

>>749687794>put Steam servers on boats so we can game after the apocalypse Based Gaben wins again
>>749687826Pay money so a computer does the thinking for you (it's jank and half assed)
>>749677089Wow, I can access my free games slightly faster.Thanks Timmy!
>>749679636What are you going to do with your new free time?
>>749677089are they really telling me to put my fucking card details into a vibe coded slop program? I need to uninstall this shit.
reminder that tim literally posts in these threads and does his own ebin clapback damage control against the trolls
>>749687826You're paying an AI company so that their AI writes your code for you, by giving it a prompt what to do. The code it produces usually ends up being quite a mess, and epic games "devs" probably didn't even read the code, and if they did, they wouldn't understand it even.

>>749687826It means you're basically letting AIs program for you instead of a human doing the work.
>>749686583Same thing as indiaphobic? Wait, do you seriously think the venn diagram of incompetent and indian isn't just a circle??
Valve code is also 99% AI generated
>>749685107Look mom! I'm on Anon's video!
>>749677607Is really sad that they're trying to make fun of their own inability like that. It's like a retarded cripple who can only make jokes about walking.
>>749688331An Epic Games account is pretty much necessary if you want to use Unreal Engine.
>>749677089Everyone here is being a performative shit. Having used both, what i dislike about epic is that it doesn't let me change the install location for the epic client itself. Changing game directory isn't that big a deal
All that and they still couldn't make the UI half decent?
>>749687826tell the chatbot what program you want and it compiles exacctly what you want from stackexchange comments for you
>>749677089>advanced digital commerce technology such as a shopping cart>takes over 3 years just to get that working

>>749687002>>749687004That is fucking WILD to me that you try to compete with Steam and your dogshit store can't even do a fucking CART
I only used EGS to play GTA V Online when they gave it for free, then I sold the account for $250.
>>749677089I want the yacht, though.
>>749688902Timmy genuinely thought all he had to do was throw the fattest stack of cash on the table and everyone would come suck him off under it. With his fortnite money he tried to bribe everyone both with exclusives and free games, and at no point did he ever realize that people care about service, something Gabe has said and everyone else has repeated screaming off the rooftops for 15 years. You want a free game, you pirate, you want a billion useful features (workshop, achievements, cloud saving, friend lists, reviews, time played, owning games without needing to have them installed at all times on a drive...), you use Steam.And everyone knows he's a fucking snake so of course no one trusts him or likes him, he ran away from PC in the 2000s and tried to blow another hole in the boat while leaving, proudly claiming how he wanted everyone to be a goyslave on fully controlled consoles where the player has 0 freedom, and now he came back to PC humiliated after none of that succeeded.
>>749688934Why would someone pay 250$ for an account that has a game that's worth 30$ max?
>>749689268What's even funnier is all of those interviews with Gabe from twenty years ago are still up on Youtube and elsewhere. Timmy could've saved himself tens of millions of dollars if he just watched those vids and learned from them.But nope, fuck that, let's spend MILLIONS to get Alan Wake 2 for a few months before it goes to Steam.>>749689321Probably because the account was leveled up and had a lot of shit in the game.
>>749689321I grinded a lot in GTA, got to lvl 281 unmodded and had everything on it, some retards buy accounts like that unironically.But ye got my fun out of it and sold it.
>>749677089The Steam client will start matching the EGS client's cold-start times once the EGS client starts matching the full feature-set of Steam's client. Until that time, the point is moot. Apples and oranges.Also:> vibe-codedLol. Did they vibe-code their startup-time benchmark as well, you think?
Epic won
>>749689408>Timmy could've saved himself tens of millions of dollars if he just watched those vids and learned from them.At this point it's obvious he's physiologically incapable of understanding that. I always thought he had an extremely ugly and weird phenotype, he's some sort of fully sociopathic jew who cannot relate in the slightest to human beings. You'd get laughed at as a shit writer if you ever wrote this guy into your story, because "no one is this insanely out of touch".
>>749689667*yuan
>>749677089>so slop brained he thinks 5s to boot is "fast" for game launcheractually lmaoing
>>749689714>>749689629I'm sincerely starting to wonder if Timmy is actually a techlet boomer who doesn't really understand AI or ecommerce and just has yes men telling him his shitty ideas are brilliant because they want to keep their high paying jobs.
People who purely vibe code and don't review outputs are going to be the death of us. WHY in the FUCK would you ever trust something that you yourself cannot understand?
the only times I ever used EGS was to redeem a free game, I have like 100 free games on it and I've never installed or played any of them and I pretty much stopped redeeming them years ago now.
>>749680241no, I don't like football :s
>>749689804the guy did a tech version MTV cribs where his kitchen sink was surrounded by rocks he thought were neat.
>>749689836Not my problem
>>749689804>Timmy is actually a techlet boomerEven a boomer would understand that "hey, we have made a Walmart equivalent, but you don't have carts, you have to pick up and bring to the cashier each and every item individually from their position on the shelf one at a time" is a horrid idea. Reviews too, it's boomers who are the most obsessed with writing reviews for stores and restaurants and hotels and stuff, and EGS doesn't have those. Timmy is not human.
>>749689924It will be once you make it the foundation to your life.
Ha, nice. That lazy fat fuck needs to be knocked down a few pegs.
>egsanyways is there anything I, as a North American white biological male can do to speed up nuclear war between india and pakistan?
>>749689804He helped found and program the original iteration of Unreal Engine. Then he got rich and you can see in real time his decline from actually being a nerd that knows his shit, to a rich asshole nerd that doesn't understand people anymore and distanced himself from knowing anything.
I'm just waiting for the day the hype cycle finally dies down for AI, so that people who can actually use it for interesting and useful ideas can be left the fuck alone and not associated with slop makers.I don't see it happening any time soon now that government has basically propped it up.

The only use of AI right now is Neuro-Sama
>>749690131Sadly that happens to pretty much most nerds who get money, makes them evil and think they know better than others.
>>749690206I give it minimum 2028 max 2030, it’s already showing cracks on failing
>>749677379It can't be worse then the mc Donalds app verifying of you have enough points for a purchase locally letting you get free food with the mobile equivalent of cheat engine.
>>749690434I'm on loonix (which is what they're bragging about releasing here), when you go to https://store.epicgames.com/download?lang=en-US there is no actual download button, and the FAQ seems to think I'm on a mobile device.
>>749690605>there is no actual download buttonit's LITERALLY the blue button in the top right corner of YOUR OWN SCREENSHOT
>>749690605Loonix too, can confirm.>>749690680The button doesn't work, just loops back to the same page.
>>749690680anon, that's just a link to that same URL my dear retard
>>749690680Epic is retarded enough that the download is a site loop instead of providing the download, anon.
>>749690725it works on my end, i literally get the exe installer, so i couldnt have possibly known it doesnt work on linux
I'll never use Epic Games, but I cheer Tim on every day in his attempt to bring competition to the marketplace of PC digital games platforms.
>>749689897based autist
>>749690824Fair enough, but it is kinda funny how they couldn't even be bothered to make an App image.I did digging for any one who cares and found the actual download page for it:https://launcher.epicgames.com/#faq-linuxIt's on their blog and it downloads an AppImage, but it seems the main website hasn't been updated for it yet for... some reason.>>749690872GoG is the only real competition in my eyes.
>>749690872> attempt to bring competition to the marketplace of PC digital games platforms.He isn’t doing that he is just trying to get more money for stupid shit. He is copying Roblox, stream, and buys clipping programs for dumb shit. Dude wasted hundreds of millions of dollars if not billions on stuff that just doesn’t plan out.
Will I at least be able to manage my Unreal Engine projects better on Linux now with this?
>>749691162It will be vibe coded to do that :)
>>749691232>he's not bringing competition to the marketplace>he's just trying to produce a product that copies its competitors to make money off of a market dominated by one provider
>>749690981thanks anon, it *does* boot pretty fast (though I don't believe their numbers in the slightest) but then the store page in the app seems to never load lmao, and it's *full* of glitcheshttps://files.catbox.moe/16e1lb.mkv
>>749690872Is this a fucking joke? Timmy is Gabe's greatest useful idiot, all mustache twirling schemes every other day make valve look incredible. The only competition is GOG.
>>749677453HEYat least you got new friends window.too bad the update removed everybody from your friends list, oopsie
>>749691698>What's the most important part of a store? Being able to fucking buy something.
>>749691698Noway Timmy flexed with this piece of shit lol
https://www.reddit.com/r/Steam/comments/1x5tfkt/they_got_us_guys/
>>749692006GOG isn't real competition. It'll never displace Steam. It can only work beside it. EGS would like to displace Steam.
>>749689804Timmy was a legitimate game dev back in the 90s. But he's long since drank the kool-ai and thinks completely different nowadays
>>749692342>GOG isn't real competition.This. GOG is a museum that lets people buy old games with 100% no strings attached. It's a flashback to buying games a quarter of a century ago. I love buying stuff there, and some GOG versions are just superior to the Steam version, like with the original RE trilogy. (The Steam version has Enigma DRM cancer shit on it.)
It was a day like any other. But for Tim GAYney the GAY, he happened to be a few feet away from Gaben when he was horny. No one wants to be around Gaben when he's horny. "So you call yourself the CEO of Epic GAYmes eh mortal? Allow me to have you earn that title" he says to GAYney. With a booming "HAKAI" GAYney's clothes and exclusives are instantly erased from every timeline. He starts having extremely GAY sex with GAYney at speeds Sweeney only thought Spencer could achieve. Before he knows it, Sweeney's name becomes GAYney so fast that it happened before it happened. "S-S-So this is the power of the PC DEITY Gaben-SAMA..." GAYney says and then faints. The end.
>>749692342EGS will never even get close to be a contender, nor anyone not clinically insane would want it to. We're talking about an actual monopoly holder with the Unreal Engine that can't offer any fucking benefit to anyone, not even fucking publishers. Cartoon levels of incompetency and malice.
>>749690872>my game launcher kinda homeless>GABE WHY YOU TRYIN NOT TO LAUGH THAT'S DISRESPECTFUL BRUH
>>749692429Everything I've seen in those leaked Steam/Epic mails when the MS lawsuit to buy ACTI was going on paints Tim as just a jealous loser who wishes he was Gabe and that Epic was Valve. But it's gotten so much more pitiable since then.
>>749690206Sadly as long as Indians exist AI will never reach its full potential
>>749692259for once, a redditor is also a chad
>>749692496EGS is trying to be competitive. GOG is not. Whether EGS succeeds is another matter.
>>749692668>food analogy
>>749678340Same with doki doki literature club, a game they give for free>>749678235>Having less options is goodHonestly, fuck you
>>749677089Gaben roasts my defenseless anus daily so this is no biggie
>>749692668>getting free games on epic be like
>>749691698saar do the needful saar do NOT opening the store link saar claude did not yet create it saar! benchod you cannot clicking the store link saar bloody bastardthis is genuinely pathetic, having your STOREFRONT not work on your new vibeslopped store application is truly something to behold
>>749677089>Programming is hardNo, it isn't. Plenty of competent people that companies like Epic can afford to and do hire.They didn't "vibe coded" anything, some things were done with the help of "AI" tools but all the intricate stuff is done by smart people, the new launcher was no exception.
>>749691507If you want to be a a real competitor you have to make a decent product, everything has pointed to him half assing it
>>749693083>intricate stuffYeah, like the shopping cart that took three years.
>>749677089Dude has legit lost it. I think he had a micro stroke or something
>>749693064>V0.95That is honestly embarrassing. Versions < 1 are expected to have bugs, but not fuck up the primary reason to use a piece of software.
>>749693154Yea, Tim probably should've spent even more money on EGS.
>>749677308Pretty sure it'd been vibe coded for years, but now that it seemed to become more socially acceptable they're pretending it's some hot new stuff.
>>749693464a bug is one thing, but why would you brag about this garbage before it's even anywhere near ready? One of the 3 (three) screens on your app straight up doesn't work, how the fuck are you going to be unironically posting some microbenchmarks bragging about it with that?
>>749693496>two and a half months until 2027think he'll make it bros?
I'm going to have to give it a try on Linux later on and see how well it works. I don't really even use the EGL for games that much (the previous lack of Linux support is a large factor that made me prefer Steam instead), I use Unreal Engine for 3D animation production and I mostly use the launcher to manage my UE projects and keep my UE installs and plugins updated. Hopefully this will make using Unreal Engine on Linux a lot more convenient.If they added a compatibility layer to let games run on Linux without needing to setup any manual hacks or workarounds, that would also be really awesome to try out.
>>749690872>competitionIt just makes its opponent look better.
>>749693496>It's only a few months left until 2027He's cooked
>>749693729Anon, >>749693064 the storepage doesn't even work on their new launcher...
>>749693064SAAR!
>>749677993has been for a while noweven pig and bald have noticed

Just wait retards.In 2 years Epic will have successfully vibecoded all the major features of Steam.
>>749694723They've not bothered to implement even a fifth of what Steam has in 8 years, what makes you think they care enough to even start now
>>7496947232 More years? aww man...prompting claude must be a difficult task at Epic headquarters
>>7496947232 more weeks saar
>>749694938>>749694942>>749694928Look at what AI coding is doing now.Do not be idiots.
>>749677089Wow so ebinly roasted!
>>749694983Just 2 more promptsTrust the plan
>>749694983I will make sure to do the needful of not redeeming being idiots saar
>>749694983Creating swaths of unoptimized dumpster fires with unfixable code and EULA violations. Great work so far.
Oh for fucks sake whatever. I guarantee you Steam is being vibecoded by Valve as well at this point.
>>749695358Steam still has a shopping cart.
>>749695358Nothing good lasts forever, but until that day comes, I will enjoy the hell out of today.
>>749677089nice vibe coded launcher epicbrosx.com/golden_aion/status/2110411675904164244#m
>>749680936You hire competent programmers and give them enough time to do their jobs the correct way instead of putting them in a time crunchMost technical debt comes from bad project managers forcing things along half baked and unfinished.
>>749695358>but what about STEAM
>>749695456>all the shills in the replieswhat a fucking cesspool, I can't believe people spend their time on that dogshit platform
>>749694723In 2 years most ai related stuff will be fucking dead
>>749695456b-But it load really fast!
>>749696542It’s unironically bots
>>749690453Isn't she completely unique aka not a openAI fork which is the entire sector?
>>749693064>this is what it looks like when a multi-billion dollar corporation relies on AIYeah, I don't think this 'AI replacing programmers' stuff is all its cracked up to be.
>>749677089timmy is forever seething at gabe because he knows gabe didn't just luck into his fortune like he did
>>749695456Did they prompt it to make solitaire?
