>>486723524New game demo released on Steam today, it's for a game called MetalMercs. Started as a fangame for Crescent Hawks but changed off the Battletech IP to not get sued.https://store.steampowered.com/app/3045070/MetalMercs/Here's some footagehttps://www.youtube.com/live/vI_wlkTFaIA?si=nvSX_cVoGJ_yxuM8&t=2197

>>486740271Thanks fren.
>>486729850>nothighlander>notatlas>notawesome>notgriffin>etclol. looks interesting regardless
Fanatical build your own FPS bundle has Rising Storm 2 Vietnam in it
>>486744485It's kind of endearing. Comstar is just called Starcom lol.I never played the original Crescent Hawk games so this is a novelty to me. There's Called Shots, it's real time with pause, there's RPG elements. Also the music is actually pretty great.
is there like, a list of what can cause fire in PZ? feel like leveling cooking with all the meme food I've got stockpiled as well as gaining some kilos but the chance of fire scares me. so far I've learned>generator under 20% condition bad>microwave metal bad>microwave & oven turned on for long time badis there anything else that I'm missing? tactically
>>486750507>>microwave & oven turned on for long time badwell you see your wrong there, you can leave an oven on all day and Im guaranteed a microwave as well. metal never started fires for me but Burnt food 100percent of the time started a fire.just dont use a microwave they tend to start them more in my experience, also microwave food taste like a chocolate covered starfish just use the oven.
what even is this Project Zomboid Drama Devhttps://www.reddit.com/r/projectzomboid/comments/1dj4jcm/comment/l98ut8x/I can't imagine being as weak willed as a Zomboid Dev, theyve had comments disabled on steam for years but yet they can't seem to turn away from redditors
>>486758412i cant get my head around the fact that project zomboid is software you are supposed to pay for

why even go outside? just farm and vibe
>>486802912good looping
>>486790948Diving deeper into the lore, it seems like the guy made a game much like this back in 1999 but never finished ithttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lEseSsZKpyoAlso for reference this is what Crescent Hawks's Revenge looked like
>>486801693>download CDDA>tutorialVery good to hear. Always good to have another soul play this game. Ask any questions here and post pics of progress, you will have a lot.You will die a lot, best start is with any weapon. Lumberjack and their wood axe is a strong start. "Safe place" or whatever its called is another really good start to add to it. Starting in a city or house is a deathwish, as a tough zombie could be only 5 tiles away. I've had character survive less than 15 seconds.
EFT pve is better than pvp
>>486809049Thanks. Is it OK to go straight to Experimental? Stable is 16 months ago, kek.
>>486809049Damn really? I'm still just playing on stable lmao. I should give this character a formal sendoff or something, i wish i could transfer the save.
>>486810368I decided to download experimental and give it a go on a new character.So far, driving feels weird. Turning circles are now a thing, but that means bikes don't make sense. Autodrive is so much smoother.I also found a new building, a go kart racetrack, so thats fun!But goddamn, who decided character size/equipment should matter for tight spaces like vehicles. Almost softocked myself in a van because it was too tight to move onto any seat, suck in the middle box. I dropped my weapon to solve it but damn its annoying.How can i turn it off?

>>486804810Intredasting.Props to the dev for sticking to his guns.
Do you guys think its good idea to buy (remake) XCOM 1 and 2 on GOG if I already have them on Steam? It would be for sole purpose of installing and playing (and modding to heart content) without worrying about launcher. Except if it doesn't really make sense as I could backup existing Steam installations anyway. This idea comes to my mind each time I see these huge (90%) discounts on GOG. And Im simply too afraid of downloading XCOm 2 mods that changes game .dll files, as most of more advanced ones require.Thanks for help.
>>486855027>without worrying about the launcherYou do know you can bypass the launcher and use another one rightMy answer is that you shouldn't buy the same game twice, that's stupid. Just pirate the GOG version if you already own it on Steam
>MechWarrior 5 still loads all your mods into memory even if they are not enabledWhat the FUCK lmaoWell there goes Von Biomes, yeeting that sucker out of my directory

>>486874946do you prefer Dynamic Trait mod over Evolving Trait World mod?
>>486885834You actually can use both together now.
>>486888106This is my first time hearing about it, from what I read it just makes the game harder with what you get? Love when a mod author disables comments real cool DTM says its not compatible with ETW in the compatibility section
>>486830854What if i make myself as small as possible, other than clothes will i have any disadvantage? Run speed, dodging, driving etc?
>>486889395Dynamic hasn't been updated in almost a year, but ETW says it works.

>>486894439Yes
>>486823778either revert to about 2 months ago or suffer. imo there needs to be a way to set car seats as (adjusted), so cars you've messed with have the seats adjusted for you wearing 2 hiking backpacks, but if you try to escape a zombie by crawling through a car with two hiking bags your fucked

anyone whose played cdda with the magicalysm stuff, can I still be a chad operator and show those magicfags the power of REAL FUCKIN NATO?
>>486801693 (me)I hit random char + scenario to get a feel for the game. Spawned in stadium with a knife and made mistake of hanging out there too long. Speed drops the more injured you are.Thought maybe I could salvage this run with the follower. Popped a zombie with a bullet but my gun wielding arm got fucked and dropped the gun. RIP.

>>486923060>>486924229it's one of those fancy european cars with the driver's seat in the trunk
>>486924229>eIt should be ^ to interact with a vehicleJust press x and see if it even has vehicle controls. The chances of it having a working engine, battery AND security system is borderline zero for an outside car.
Ran out and died. Noticed zombies hitting the car were distracted for a short time before going to me (I was grabbed by another zombie), so this made me wonder if I could've gone to second car then ninja crouch away from the other side door.>>486926364t-thanks...
>>486923060>>486924229Its on the left side (bottom tile)You likely dont have controls, dashboard, seat etc. Or if you have tried starting it, no battery, engine broken, or no fuel.Best you can do is leave through the south door and run, the zombies getting stuck on the car and breaking it.
>clown start at a golf course
Found a working car. Need a weapon though. No golf clubs around.And examining it shows only 8 minutes of gas remaining.
4/6 Ain't free. Going fast and proper brawlin gotta be litterd with the weight of 41 ton GM 380s. BNC-3S aka "the good one" is not my son. he is an overcompensating pansy and probably overheats :DD. PUNCHIN and shootin not SCOOTIN and shootin ok. IM CHARGIN.
>>486938138I just can't watch turn based combat like this and think it looks good.
>Finally get around to trying xcom 2>game keeps throwing me into stuff>Hey commander, go get those supplies>Also your research is done>Also have a forced mission>Also your monthly supplies are here>And the chosen is doing shit>oh are you mere hours from finishing a scan, have a major mission"Ok but it isn't an emergen-">NO COMMANDER YOU NEED TO DO THIS NOW>Also, your excavation finished lolMAKE IT STOOOOOOOOP
>>486943229Is it your first XCOM gameI fear it might cause a bad first impression
>>486943509I hate how they swapped out the ballistic system for whats now in the nuxcom games.
>>486922656For cases like that, the devs should add an option to tie the pistol to your hand with rags, bandages, tape, etc.It can work in an emergency and it's right up in CDDA's alley of autistically detailed interactions.
>>486947207That's one of the many reasons why I don't care about nuxcom at all.And I don't understand why openxcom or its mods never got rid of hit chance display.>661% chance to hit>missWhat would hit chance above 100% even mean? A single bullet hits multiple times? Just display the real shot dispersion instead of silly the fake hit chance geez.

>>486967357it looks like rpgmaker had sex with wasteland 1 doe
>>486970524>zoomer opinionOk, anyway.
>>486973780pz looks like ass by modern day gaymer standards too but it's visually appealing nevertheless cdda isn'tsorry!
>>486970524>muh graphix!!!cringe
>>486962515This is bait, but i'll bite.Zomboid devs take 6 months to deliver us fucking pizza. We dont have NPCs, car modding, basements, animals, hunting, meaningful endgame. i could go on, the list is endless with what pz doesnt have.CDDA however has all of these and more. NPCs, quests, missions, basements, caves, car modification, more unique vehicles than just a car and van, animals, special infected, endgame options like mutating and bionics. And its constantly being developed, to add little features like flavored chewing gum, to more complex features.>But muh graphicsAnon, have you considered the mechanical and gameplay depth, as well as replayability and longevity over 3d cars with unanimated doors the devs haven't put it for reason number #3402Its also free, go try it if you have a numpad.
>>486978628if project zombies looked like dwarf fortress it'd have all of these too by now bro, maybe even more because it's just a 30x30 pixel art and some text
>Come back here you lil varmints!!>*shakes fist*
>>486979494>graphics holding gameplay backMany such cases!
>>486981651"finders keepers brah"
I've been listening to this guy's thoughts on Battletech tactics while I play. They're fun, useful, and they largely apply to the videogames too>Light tacticshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rPcRCjcEUUE>Medium tacticshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CMzNZllwLEI>Heavy mech tacticshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H96BL9_sFmc>Assault mech tacticshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uz336IdzITs>Intro to infantryhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LEIOxwyUg5Y>Intro to tankshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RFzeXSslIsk>Intro to airhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h8BDxRJyDLY>Building a lancehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ho9HdZEFySU
>>486981927NTA, I'd argue it's not just graphics but the whole style of gameplay? Like CDDA sounds good but the whole turn based on a grid zangband style gameplay just does not appeal to me.If they made a 3D real-time version of CDDA I'd probably try it.
>>486999476 (Me)One specific idea he gave me that I applied to good effect was combining the Banshee with a Javelin as support brawlerThose point blank SRM-6's go a long way to helping the Banshee knock down whatever it's punching, plus getting criticals on the exposed juicy bits the Banshee bruised
>>486999610its not turn based
>>486999610cdda is not turn based it's a simultaneous turns game
Just FYI, "Simultaneous turns" still means it's turn based. Just a different mode of it. It's called WEGO and several other games use it (like Frozen Synapse, Combat Mission, Phantom Brigade, TASTEE Lethal Tactics, etc)
Okay nerd
I'll be what I am with the Sledger.It's actually not that hard because repositioning and a bit of anticipation get rid of most of them very easily.And this was the special fuck you spawn with the suicide tuktuks.And some asshole tripped an alarm at some point; probably got tagged by shrapnel or something. When I found him he was already screeching, but I wasted that pos.
Going all in and building a lance around this idea of knockdown wombocombos. Here I have a Wolverine, Javelin, Banshee, and Marauder. Gonna see how it goes
I dont know if I had a fever dream but I remember seeing Therapist from EFT in lingerie. Like her portrait picture but instead of wearing doctors robes she was wearing fish nets or something. And if I really saw that, I think I musta seen it here. Anyone knows what I mean??Bonus question: Whats that scope called that you can flip for magnification its two parts, one holo sight + one magnification flippable scope?Thank you fellas.Picture mostly unrelated.
>>487007981uh, LPVO?
>>487012896>>487007981>flippableOh, nevermind, G33?
>>487013153Absolutely love eotech sightslike g33s+eotechs even more
>>487007981A variety of scopes can mount red dots. Some LPVOs, Acogs, Elcan Spectre and the like. The Acoustic aren't variable zoom though.
>>487007153That was fun! Good synergy between these guys, SPECIALLY in an urban environment where it's easier to break line of sight with buildings.
>>487018340Might switch out the Marauder for a Catapult, an Archer, or a similar LRM boat - it was sometimes not doing anything because it didn't have LoS to the enemy
>>487020685Been a while since I played BT, but I remember the MAD being beyond broken due to its called shot bonus.
>>487023983This is true in vanilla's balance, yeah. 33% chance to headshot with a high tactics pilot and instantly take an enemy off the board with full salvage. I've been intentionally ignoring that and just going for other parts to not completely trivialize fights where this thing is in. This changes in mods though
>>487025480Also: I had a fight not too long ago where a Quickdraw ran up to one of my Atlases and punched in the face, killing it instantly. I consider it karma for the times I did use Marauder's broken bonus
>>486978628Aesthetic Is important, just like in real life your surroundings are important to your mental healthhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fkk1Fi07aBI
>>486978628I was watching an actual good streamer try out cdda for the first time after many hours of PZ and his chat was absolutely unbearable with graphics comments. If a game doesn't look good to the masses it won't even get made, let alone played. Something like cdda will unfortunately always be inferior in their eyes because "it looks like rpgmaker" or "where's all the frames" without realizing the core gameplay is turn based or the immense depth is something you should be after, not criticizing. He eventually ran into a scenario he liked with the delivery mission, and the people were flabbergasted with how the car was presented moving, it was hilarious, people thought the game broke every time he turned. Not to suck this guys dick or anything but he was smart enough to see the roleplay potential in the game and I hope he sticks with it because it can generate some really good stories. Like even in the absolute trash lives he played he was able to construct good stories and it made me realize the potential of a good storyteller in cdda, without fail you run into something interesting within like 10 steps.
Is there another mech game like MW:LL? I'm mainly interested in the combined arms part, bonus points if it's multiplayer too. There's just something about being a humble tank/APC/infantryman in a setting with mechs, or being their bane of existence in an aircraft.>inb4 modded Arma 3Not THAT janky.
>>487030063Don't think so. MWLL hasn't been topped yet. Its only downside is low player count and you have PGI to thank for that
>>487030063the merctech mod lets you play as tanks in mw5, but that's pve onlyhttps://youtu.be/BDnHJKamm2c?si=uyB-R7E0Xr9pEUPz&t=9
>>487030063Not really.I guess planetside 2 or battlefield 2142 would be sort of similar?
>>487035437planet side 2 is absolute dog shit that has performance and insane game design problems to this daybf2142 is old and dead
>>487037748Yeah, well, those are your options.
so, do people actualy prefer xcom 1 over 2?having finished first game im more mad than satisfied (first first playthrough of it without dlc yet next one ill enable the enemy within), does the dlc like fix any of the roughness of the game like how annoying the camera or terrain gets? (2 soliders standing next to each other on stairs yet somehow no line of sight to heal with medikit) or is the prefenency mainly over the fact lot of xcom players grown up with first game?
>>487042291no, the dlc has more features but it doesn't change camera settings or mess with line of sight on ramps. i honestly don't remember having issues with that, so that might have been fixed by long warmy preference towards nucom 1 over nucom 2 is that i consider it to be a good foundation to build upon and has a mod that makes it much betteri still prefer og x-com but they're very different to the firaxis reboot
>>487043138>i consider it to be a good foundation to build upon and has a mod that makes it much betterhmmm thats something ill have to give a gosince Long war mod has quite the good rep from last i remember
>>487043505yes you should. it's tough compared to vanilla, and there's many differences, so i would recommend you start Long Dong on normal difficulty. this is regardless of what diff you played nowone of the main differences is that you can't have an A-team that you always bring out over and over in long war. there's a fatigue mechanic, so you need to have a healthy roster full of dozens of soldiers to rotate in and out. you can still bring out fatigued soldiers in emergencies but it will incur a wound afterwards
>>487044281hmm i allready tried to prepare multiple soliders for 2-3 teams in case id need a lot of people or my main team would get wounded/wouldnt make italso cool to hear it has a fatigue mechanic thats allways neat way to make you rotate soliders (atleast it does so in xcom2)
>>487044640that's because xcom 2's DLC yoinked the idea straight from long war, because it's a good ideaanother difference is that you will be commanding more troops in a battle. you start commanding 6 from word-go, and it can go up to 12 in alien base assaults iirc
>>487029393>core gameplay is turn basedso are classic fallouts but they don't have cars that look like thisI'm SORRY but that shit isn't immersiveit might be a good game but with graphical design like this it'll always be a extreme niche for few autists
>>48704482312 at once? holy shit that sounds fun as fuck
>>487045203in the original x-com you start commanding 14 troops in missions, and you can field 26 at the end of the game
>>487045649And mods can take things in interestind directions... Anything from 1 to 50 units. And an unit could be anything from a mech carrying actual goddamn nuclear missiles to a catgirl in stealth suit.Couldn't imagine playing nuxcom.
is this anon about to start fighting the zombros cause hes falling for bait
yes
no
>>486909929I love the hide button. It's just "Not my problem anymore" boop
maybe
i dont know
just now learning what engine numbers mean in BT. sharing here in case it's useful to any other noobsmech tonnage * walk speed = engine ratingmovement is expressed like>walk/run>1/2 (super slow)>2/3 (very slow, think Urbie or Annihilator)>3/5 (assault speed)>4/6 (average speed)>5/8 (above average)>6/9 (quick)>7/11 (speedy, think Jenner)>8/12 (fast as fuck, think Spider)etc. so for example since the Highlander weighs 90 tons, and its speed is 3/5, its engine is rated 270also,engine rating / 25 = # of internal heat sinksso a highlander has 10 internal heat sinks because it's rounded down
>>487002272>>487002293What I meant is that it's not real time - you're still moving a 'step' at a time. Like >>487005185 said (though I'd argue Frozen Synapse is different as technically the moves ARE conducted in real time, they're just set up beforehand - each move is what, 5 seconds?)I don't really get on with stuff that's not real time. Not saying it's bad but it stops me from playing stuff like CDDA. If they made a version that played & looked like PZ though I'd go for it.
>>487029393>without realizing the core gameplay is turn based or the immense depth is something you should be after, not criticizingI mean, whether or not it being turn based is good is a pretty subjective thing surely (same to an extent with the depth thing)
can you repeat the question
>Lifestyles added SHITTINGFUCK OFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
>>487029393>Good streamer>Delivery missionSo you watched charborg?I was timed out in his chat because i was trying to give useful advice that would help him play cdda better, but he wasn't reading the game or the chat and I got mad.He's also playing without a numpad, and somehow navigated through a city of zombies without dying so that's actually impressive.And I admit, the game is not the best for streaming. Its enjoyable if you know the game, and can see what's happening. Its also more enjoyable when the streamer knows the game too and actually reads the game/chat for help.
>>487060180Check out the engine tonnage table if you didn't already, its a pretty good read and gives a explanation on why mechs like the banshee and charger are not that successful in to others.http://www.ci-n.com/~jcampbel/rpgs/battletech/rnd/optimalweight.php

so this entire time when ive been firing my deathmobiles turrets its been dropping the belt links outside and ive just left a few thousand links i needed at all the places i went to? i should of expected that. but. fuck.
>>487108654If you mount the turret above any kind of storage space, the links end up there. I always have two turrets above the driver and shotgun seats.
>>487109308does having a roof in that spot change anything?
Lol, oops. During a battlefield mission, I ran into a very rare corner case, and the game bugged out. I pushed my luck and it crashed. Shame, it was a fun mission with allied Drac and Capellan lances against a big FedSun force. Guess I'm redoing the contract tomorrow.>Melee the enemy Marauder>Support guns are fired after melee>Some machine gun fire happens to hit the knocked down Blackjack right in front>The bullets crit the ammo in the Blackjack's CT and it explodes>...Except it's still there, alive.

i'm considering picking up either counter strike or valorant, what are the good and bad sides of each game?
>>487137786>Counter StrikeThe good:It's counter strikeThe bad:It's counter strike>ValorantThe good:*huge shrug*The bad:Kernel level anti-cheat lmao
>>487137786Ah yes the tactical Valorant and CSGO (save yourself and dont play any)
>>487137957>>487138056let me change the question then, which one is a better option for a beginner at competitive FPS?also if i play one it won't be hard to change to the other one, correct?
>>487138191 CoD Modern Warfare 2
>>487138191the only real option you've presented here is counter strike and it is still a bad option
>>487138191Arma let you learn real tactics to be better at competitive FPS.
>>487138191Consider Hunt: Showdown for muh competitive FPS, the top ranks are pure un-fun suffering it'll be great
>>487138825bullshit taking things slow and steady just gets you killed im actually good in arma pvp but shit in any other game
which one should i pick if i want to play after work but still wanto to have a decently high rank? (no actual pro play)
>>487139642I hear Escape from Tarkov is great for after a hard day at work, it really helps you relax and not be angry
>>487139775is it? i hear the devs did something really nasty but don't know details
>>487137786valorant is as tactical as hitlers missing left nut
>>487107991I'd have to install some kind of mod for that which I don't wanna do. rather craft like 50 traps and get 200xp daily>>487113903you have to use an appropriate bait (I used cereal for bird traps) and set your traps like a 100 tiles away from the area you're at, then check them out every 24 hours.
>>487138191>competitive FPSis deadIt's full of cheaters.
>>487139642league of legends
>>487138191CS is more simple. In Valorant you have to learn all of the bullshit powers of all of the heros. In CS you just learn to shoot and if you want to be more useful, you can learn smokes and flash placements
Should an LRM-boat in Battletech be as close as possible to heat neutral? Assuming it has sufficient firepower and ammo, and you're running minimal armor (because it's behind like 2 hills raining down indirect fire)My instinct is it should be, because you want it to alpha strike every turn on the clock with no downtime
I guess this is a case of ideal scenarios vs what actually happens. If an enemy breaks through the frontline to go bonk the LRM-boat, it should have some form of backup weapons and not minimal armor. But you pay the price for that safety by having to manage heat after a few turns of firing all missiles
>>487144123I'm pretty sure you don't need to install a mod, you can adjust XP gain rates in the sandbox settings.
>>487159128that is correct but it sets xp multiplier for all skills and some of them are way too easy to level (tailoring, foraging, carpentry) compared to others, which is why you need a mod to adjust gains for cancer skills only
>>487165038I mean, if they're easy then they're easy. You'll level them up eventually anyway, I'd say that it's still worth bumping it up.
>Ready or Not active players: 5000>Six Days in Fallujah active players: 150>Zero Hour active players: 100Why is Ready or Not so much more popular?
I also make construction faster so I can fortify places without needing whole days working on it
>>487174969maybe because they have a marketing budget

>>487174969Marketing, nothing but that. Not Ready has been in the news since forever, normies like a friend of mine keeping tabs on it. He has no fucking clue what Zero Hour is if I told him, or even Six Days in Faullujah... besides the actual event, or maybe hearing about it in the news back in the 360 days when it was meant to be a story focused and FINISHED video game before the name was bought by retarded indie fags.

>>487185759I can't accurately measure the amount of sarcasm in that statement.There's a lot of map tilesets. Some more elaborate than that, some even simpler. But frankly none of them are good yet. Tilesets for the map view is a fairly new feature and it takes time for tileset authors to deabstract all different buildings from shared ascii characters to unique icons with a consistent style that hopefully matches at least one of the main tilesets.

I've been loving the chance to go back and do Flashpoints that have low tonnage requirements. Gives you an excuse to bust out lances like thisWarhammer as the heavy, Centurion and Enforcer as the mediums, and a Javelin as the light. Just really solid synergy

Is Warno worth torrenting for just the singleplayer or is it a more multiplayer focused game?
>>487269771It got plenty of content for solo but I feel the meat of the game is in multiplayer
>>487269771I'd expect it to be the same as wargame. Technically there, but the AI cheating is so bad that you can't enjoy it.
New achievements for RoN DLC... hidden and dangerous seems interesting. i sure hope they add some new behaviors with the patch so the older maps get more interesting. every suspect encounter devolves into a gunfight and civ encounters could not be more stale. there is so much potential but i dont think this patch is going to do much, based on the trailer which showed nothing new aside from the maps and guns
>>487270186The ai in Warno is better than the one in wargame. They cheat less and make better tactical decision, overall less frustrating to play against.
War? noWARNO
>>487274876That's what they said about red dragon too.
>>487275641Not like they worked on two games between red dragon and Warno, right? They improve the ai between each games. The ai is still easy to defeat if you are used to do PvP but they are overall okay and less frustrating than before.
>>487274312for a sec I thought ron stood for rise of nations and got hyped

Between MechWarrior 2, 3, and 4 - which one do you prefer?
>>487291824My favourite is MW4:Mercs, but i think the best is MW3, the feel of mechs is pretty gud.I tried getting into MW5 + Merctec mod, the tech implemented in there is amazing, but the AI is unbearably retarded.
>>487291824>>487295234I haven't played 3 yet so I can't comment. I've heard it's more "sim" than the others, but that it's hard to get running now
>>487291824MW3>MW5>MW4>older titles
>>487291824MechWarrior 2: Mercs is the best one
>>487291824MW3 is the best, but I prefer 4 for allowing more retarded shit.
With Ready or Not, I feel like the maps are way too open and have too much risk, I guessIs there any easy way to mitigate this (bots only)? Like in SWAT 4, you could do door wedges and whatnot but in RON, it feels like if you try to do a door wedge, there's a 50 chance someone from one of the other 2 exits will shoot part of your team.
>>487304261>maps are way too open and have too much riskAs I've been saying since day one, the maps are insanely bloated and "huge for the sake of being huge", but for any logical gameplay or ""story"" reasons. Sadly it seemed to work too, seeing how many people happily bought into this thing.
>>487304479Is there any way to deal with it?Or at least does SWAT 4 have custom maps?
>>487313901>does SWAT 4 have custom maps?Loads
>>487314291well fuck me, thank you anonI will now try that game some moreI'm guessing there's no mod to give another team of allies or to select only one ally to do an action instead of them being in a pair
What historical figure would you play &tacticals with?I was thinking Hitler but I imagine he'd be annoying sometimes:>Why did you kill the hostage, Hitler?>He looked like ein juden>Goddammit Hitler!
>>487314706If you're at the level of micromanagement that you need to separate teams, you should just play multiplayerIf you've already played vanilla there's little to no reason to not play with First Responders mod installed
Is there any in Arma 3 like the sort of shit in SWAT 4/Ready or Not? Not expecting pinnacle stealth or anything but just sort of 'command everything including vehicles while the AI follows orders' kinda deal

Is /eftg/ dead again? Just hoped back into Tarkov and been trying out the PVE mode they so "graciously" bestowed upon me. Got a couple of questions.A: didn't they say the game will still run on servers? from what it seems its still running locally even to the bot movements. I got disconnected from my router yesterday and I could continue the raid just fine.B: Do the fucking goons have a 100% spawn rate on customs?Every single time I approached the fort part of the map I got spotted by the goons and hunted relentlessly. At one point I went through the little forest area leading from dorms towards the river, Birdeye spotted me and the 3 faggots followed me all the way to the trailer park exit.
>>487327959see >>487282931
>>487327696the expression is "par for the course", anon. like from golf.
>>487327959The bots are local, your character progression is on the servers.Just play SPT. Be free of Battlestate.
>>487327959Fuck the ruskies join the SPT be a free man not a slave also have a doro
>>487328704>>487328870I paid for the Edgelord Edition so I'm gonna atleast play it for a bit before throwing it away.Also SPT has no flea market last time I checked and half the fun of Tarky is getting valueable loot and selling it for 5mil on the market.
>>487329178>the Edgelord Editionhow much does that costwhat's the price for edgelords
>>487329375I bought standard edition for 40 bucks and edgelord was a 70 bucks addition?that was four years ago when I was totally blown away by how awesome tarkov wasi got my moneys worth from the game desu so I dont regret it, I just regret BSG couldn't make it an even better game
jesus christ people blew 110 dollars on an unfinished game
>>487329730That's small-time. Star Citizen hit 700 million a while ago.
>>487330061fair point, but i consider that a cult instead of a videogame
>>487329178Well at least you got your moneys worth i bought basic edition few y back played for like an hour then never touched that shit again
>>487330147Well, it's not like the funding of any tech company makes any sense these days.For example Firefox is funded by its direct competitor, Chrome.
>>487329178>Also SPT has no flea marketIt does.

Rapidly approaching the point where I will probably give up.The E missions are not really fun and the F missions are just tedious.Placebo Syndrome with the Fence wasn't that hard though once I realized that I can just completely circumvent the northern part of the map and barely engage with anyone but the captains; very convenient that the last captain actually sat right before the exit.

I can't stop laughing at this Atlas render from the 3025 multiplayer game design docs. look at this dood https://mega.nz/file/jhsixaJY#BaZqk36R7XpkmgoQ-8rTJTl0tf6tJKgaDmb2iUyxGjU
>>487342378I don't know who was saying it's pay2win, it's probably one of the least pay2win WoTlikes in existence, possibly the least of any free to play game.All the mech chassis are free, specific variants require premium currency, but those are usually designed for specialist builds and the others are just free variants with a permanent regular currency booster. New mechs usually are only available to people that pre-order them for real currency, they become available for premium currency a few months later, then they finally can be bought with regular currency a few months after that.Currency gains are generous and there is no tech tree, the only thing stopping you from buying a free mech is not being able to afford it. getting the mech you want and building it the way you want is relatively easy.Light mechs take a few games to get the money for, assault mechs might take tens of games, and clan mechs are usually twice as expensive, though not necessarily better(in MWO), than an equivalent IS mech.The bad parts of MWO are not the monetization, it's the relatively small(but still large enough to find games in a few minutes at any time of day), "elite" player base and rumors of hacking, and the admittedly restrictive meta, though I do well enough despite those issues.Probably the least frustrating game of its kind that I've played.
cdda, I'm kinda lost with where to go/what to do. got a decent deathmobile, bunch of guns and ammo but don't know what do do with it. where do I find more exotic/rare guns or do I need to start collecting books and learn to manufacture my own ammo/mods? or find power armor and stuff? I know the labs have some of this but I'm not sure which ones to try out, or if i should just start attacking tcl's

>>487345607>New mechs usually are only available to people that pre-order them for real currency, they become available for premium currency a few months laterDoesn't this mean they have an incentive to make these OP and then knock them with the nerf autocannon when they are not exclusive to real money
>>486636436>>486636793With this setup it's too heat efficient.I'll swap out the M Lasers for Short Burt once once I have them.
>>487349394The incentive is there, they just don't do it.Stone rhino for example, it was great on release. 8 months later? Just as good.
>>487349961>It's too heat efficientWell of course it is, look at your setup.>Sub 100km/h JennerYour engine is underpowered, you have endo-steel, and you're missing a jump jet; you have a lot of free weight, so you added two extra heat sinks, one of them a double.

Quicsell brand Thermal Mass improves the amount of heat your system can take before you hit the redline.Quicsell, lmao that's a deep cutDo they even make those in canon?

>>487353442>Your engine is underpoweredIwanted to put a bigger engine in it but I have to wait till I find/buy one.>so you added two extra heat sinksWith YAML you have to have minimum of 10 heat sinks.

If I want to run with <1.0H/s I should be allowed to.I'll double chet the mod settings but I don't think you can change that setting. Maybe it's some limitation of the game itself.

>>487368480Yes. Quikscel are known for their dirt cheap prices, which they achieve by judiciously sub-contracting with every fucking idiot with a garage and by essentially not having a QA department. The only people buying from them are either broke and desperate, or one of the Great Houses.And the Great Houses have their own standard MO when dealing with Quikscell: Buy stuff from them in bulk, have your own techs go over everything in detail, note down everything wrong, fix it and then bill the company for it.

On Hunt, is it worth it to do stealth build solo, or are you gimping yourself for when a team shows up for the bounty?
>>487368480In Issue 9 of Shrapnel magazine there's an article where a guy claims they constantly get the name wrong in documentation on purpose>>487370983As usual it depends on many factors: what MMR you are, what your playstyle is, etc
>>487370983>stealth solo buildFor the time, yes, especially when you got necro. Once the big patch hits tho, not so much anymore.

I regret buying it.>>487174969Definitely marketing. The trailers are practically false advertising with all the cinematography, animations and voice acting that doesn't happen in the game. Done so well that you'd think the game is equally high quality. I fell for it. I think people are still weary about SDIF due to how long the game's been in development, and maybe they're finally learning to be more cautious after being buttfucked multiple times by previous Early Access games over the years. It's genuinely sad though because I enjoy SDIF more than RoN but only so long as I'm playing with friends, as I don't like playing with randoms and SDIF's singleplayer is pure dogshit. RoN's is at least playable, but the AI is still jank. The AI in SDIF doesn't do John Wick aimbot shit like RoN's, and the procedural generation is amazingly better than I expected. I think RoN should have some level randomization to make it more replayable, but I doubt that'll ever happen. SDIF has potential, but with the lack of players/sales, I can't imagine it has much steam left for development. As for Zero Hour, I haven't touched it in a year or two. It was OK for the price I paid. I don't remember what made me not care for it though, other than a general lack of polish and I guess just being and feeling like an off-brand version of SWAT 4/RoN? Need to look into it again at some point, saw that they added dogs or something a while back but I don't feel like reinstalling.
My character died in cdda, i'm not too fussed, only lived 3 days.With the next character, i want to see the ocean, maybe do some swimming, diving, and especially see an aircraft carrier.Whats the best way to find the ocean?
>>487396706go east apparently. ive heard people say going west is "inland" and east is to the oceanor just do the aircraft carrier start and learn2gitgud. really satisfying, actually, and you get shitloads of loot for the effort really early.
>>487396706Do yourself a favor and make your own boat, then put wheels on it so it becomes amphibious.You'll have a vehicle that you can sail on rivers or explore inland with, you can even park right outside a city because when zombies see you they usually get stuck in the water since they lose sight of you.Every boat or canoe you see can be cannibalized to make your boat bigger too. >>487397135I didn't know they added carriers and carrier starts, that's so cool. I should make the time to play CDDA again.
>>487337412Eh, I am doing Freelance inbetween, but I'm not up for selfmade challenges exactly because of the campaign stuff and beyond that I don't find it that exciting.In this case it's more a matter of those missions just being ass and/or tedious, especially with the smaller loadouts than getting burnt out.
>>487335819That which you believe is &tactical is &tactical. However, remember that others may not agree with you.
So apparently if you're still on the aupporter edition branch of RoN it's no longer supported and the DLC won't update unless you switch off. Also, the balaclavas are only available in MP.So 1 year for 3 maps that aren't integrated into the commander mode, 3 weapons, a handful of cosmetics and the update apparently runs like shit. What the hell does Void do with their time?

Really nice guide for the basic tactics of movement in Battletech (Megamek)https://www.goonhammer.com/battletech-basic-guide-to-movement/
Slightly miffed that vanilla won't let you mount anything on the Awesome's left hand, so if I want to put an extra PPC on there it's gotta be on the torso
I’ve been using some settings copied from a yutuber who seemed to know his stuff for megamek(or at least looked them up himself) but things seem to explode a lot more oftenHad a big 95 ton mech like alone 60% of the enemy lance BV get knocked out from its AC exploding from a malfunction the first time it fired in round 3.Not saying its not fun but when there are two explosions every match then it loses it’s novelty. Usually engines
>>487436225you're using some of the advanced rules? like tacops stuff? a lot of those increase lethality.ammo explosions, engine crits, gyro crits, headshots, TACs, everything in the basic rule set explodes enough as it is.
https://x.com/ArmaPlatform/status/1816134727977349312?t=03ZusFGwGyrOxq7nkCUSmg&s=19Forgotten weapon cameo in arma?
>>487440441NTA but I wonder if those increased lethality rules are more intended to be used for later eras, where 'Mechs are more durable. Sort of to balance it out.In Succession Wars era they're still relatively fragile
>>487441381all the extra rules are just meant to simulate things the game normally doesn't and make it more granular and deep.the base game is already complex enough that most veteran players don't want to deal with the extra rules and calculations and it would be completely unreasonable to expect new players to be able to handle the extra complexity.
>>487440441yeah, dont know them by heart and cant check nowalso there is woods giving dmg absorbtion, on the fence about that one because it completely negates SRMssuppose I should play with later techalso wanna get into campaigns but need to look up how those work. something simplified would be nice, say like a bunch of missions stringed together with little resources and the same lance and see how far I gethad a neat moment with a mech crashing down a building on another inside(?) by jumpjetting on it
So what's the verdict?Worth reinstalling?
>>487444290not until they fix their shit, come back in a few patches
>>487444554Apparently the latest patch completely overhauled the AI, but I'll give it a few more weeks

>>487444290Couldn't tell you since the game runs like ass again after the update. Time to wait another 6-12 months for them to fix it again since Void is slow and retarded. If all the AI issues still aren't resolved by the next update, I'm done with this polished turd of a game. It has never not been jank.
>>487444290>worthwhat a meaningless fucking buzzword
>>487444290Played the 1st and 3rd missions of the DLC. They're in a separate tab during mission select fyi.1st one is an interesting setup. LSPD are clearing out a known homeless encampment ahead of a massive hurricane. Per RoN rules, there has to be some twist to the scenario and as you clear your way through the building there's some sort of hobo-cult setup reminiscent of Children of Tarrone. Suspects are thankfully lightly armed for the most part because the level is typical Void clusterfuck with dozens of doors and rooms winding into each other with pass throughs for suspects to slip around. The lighting and flashlights are still fucked so enjoy green or blue tint to the screen the whole time.3rd one is an LSPD informant being made by the cartels and SWAT has to come rescue him. Starts off great, with a turned over empty house and blood everywhere. Environmental context says follow the blood and it leads you into the dense ghetto neighborhood as you peek in windows and skip through yards. Would have been a great opportunity for VA to really sell the developing emergency situation as SWAT has to break their own cordon to chase the suspects. Per typical Void, the level gets super sense and filled with trash but still offers some long sight lines.The new weapons are... pointless? The 509 and DD PDW are just another 9mm and 5.56, though the MP17 actually has you use the spare mag holder on your first emergency reload. No way to reload the spare I think.Customization menu is somewhat fixed, with better lighting, angles and the ability to rotate the officer. Still too much clicking to get anything done.I didn't get the crazy fps drops people are reporting, but it also doesn't run smoothly. Still get that once a level stutter bs.
>>487444290>>487455641Also, seems like all mods are broken. So mod authors have to update their shit for post DLC.
>>487444290how about your make your own fucking opinions for fucking once?? jesus christ you people are hopeless consumer that always need everything verified by other people>B-BUT I WAS TRYING TO MAKE CONVERSATION YOU SCHIZO FREAK!!oh I'm fucking sure you were nigger

Ah yes, Power, Economy, Defense and Other.Different times.
>>487465820kek
>>487406585it needs more work but its my favorite start so far. its very difficult, but clearing it gives you a literal aircraft carrier worth of loot so its like speedrunning to mid-game/almost end-game. if your sick of repeating early game but want a semi-decent explanation of starting with op stuff, this is it

>>487503085It actually only took 5 damage, it looks like it jammed probably due to some advanced rule like forcing rapid fire on a standard AC, maybe the kind of ammo it was using. You had autoeject on so he automatically bailed thinking it was a total magazine explosion, then it really DID set off the ammo when falling
>>487505810well it still exploded from jam which caused all of itI do have rapidfire ACs tac rule, but I don't know what the bot was doing, it's "may fire as"
I guess the road's closed
>>487498854>>487503085>>487505810It's the optional rule that allows standard autocannons to double-tap like an Ultra. The drawback is that it jams on a 3 or 4 on the to-hit roll, and will outright blow up on a 2.

The community will get to vote on a pair that will be made into DLC.BluFor get the 12. Panzerdivision, a stepping stone between the existing German armor and infantry divisions. Mid tier units with a smattering of US ones thrown in. No helicopters and middling AA and generous aircraft. Also sees the return of the G11 with the PZ. Grenadier-Lehr who IRL were a training and assessment formation that evaluated the G11.RedFor gets the Protivotankovyy Rezerv, a Soviet defensive formation heavy on engineers, artillery and anti tank guns. East German units round out the formation.

What is the lore explanation for some mech designers to slap ammo in the Center Torso of some variants?Like, what the fuck were they thinking>Yes I would like the pilot of this to go up like a fireball when the enemy gets a lucky hit on an ammo bin and it explodes
>>487574550where else are they going to put it?
>>487574784side torsos or legsit's still gonna be crippling if it blows obviously, but there's a big difference between still being in the fight and insta-dyingand if you have fancier tech and add CASE, it's not even that big of a deal if it blows up because it's contained to that part instead of bleeding damage to the other componentsand of course in an ideal scenario you can also spend the ammo or jettison it so that it can't blow up, but again i have to ask what the lore advantage even is to having it in the CT to begin with
I read of a guy that insisted head was statistically the safest place to store ammo (if it's just one bin) so that's what he didI can definitely see arms being a good place for it too, specially if the weapon they are feeding is also on the arm. That way if it goes it doesn't matter that much because that ammo wasn't being used for anything else and you have your side torso as padding for the damage to spread
>>487479169Extremely solid, cheap low-end trooper. Would field as a unit commander. Would hate to pilot, consdering the Cappies made the ejection seat eat pilots and in true Cappie fashion never bothered to fix that.
>>487575630do you really think it matters where they put literally tons of explosives? the russians are using 1/4th ton bombs that blow up entire city blocks right now. I doubt it really matters if your 4 tons of missiles blows up 10 feet under you or 20 feet under you.
>>487568747Warno already has DLCs, just anyone who bought during EA got in included.These Nemesis DLCs I guess are what they did with SD 1/2. Community votes which one, then they put it up for sale.
>>487575630I wonder how the feed mechanism for legs would even work
>>487574550The argument is that CT is the most heavily armored part of the 'Mech, and if it gets crit it's likely to hit something nasty anyway like the Gyro or Engine. Adding ammo into the mix is not that much deadlier - you're already kinda fucked if you're taking crits to CT. Ideally you'd use up all the ammo in that slot before it starts taking too much damage
Take the flashbulb zombie mech pillNo ammo, no problem. All energy weapons baby
>>487488137welp, I guess sucks to suck with a feature only 8 people use ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Cool paint jobhttps://www.nexusmods.com/battletech/mods/585
>>487579637As per how battletech works, placing ammunition in the legs or arms means that heavier mechs have a chance of not being totally obliterated if ammunition detonates, especially if the ammunition is mostly depleted during battle. But it depends on the ammunition type and almost all ammunition detonations of more than a couple tons almost guarantee total destruction without CASE.An ammunition explosion that destroys the center torso means that the mech effectively no longer exists, it's probably still salvageable if it only takes out a leg and side torso.

Nebulous dev(s?) are so much better at this.
>>487635887>added a whole 10 level skill for making stone knivesjesus christ these devs are retarded
>>487635282It really was. Often burn drive-ing into an enemy ship normally just results in a bounce and an engine flameout but that time everything just lined up so fucking nice.
At first I thought YAML having this on by default was kinda cheaty, but I realize vanilla setting is the cheaty one.You can't just put things into cold storage anymore and have them magically instantly stripped. Now if you want to take off those valuable parts to use, you have to assign a work order.At least when selling the mech it does seem you pay you for what's on it. I haven't done the math though to see if you get 100% of the value for it's weapons/equipment.
>>487507067>>487509824Howa re you taking these screenshots?Is there some sort of photo/freecam mode?
>>487602865Call me racist but if you can put a catapult next to a stalker and I can't tell the difference.
>>487642663Ctrl+Shift+I enables debug modeCtrl+Shift+U once hides the HUD but keeps outlinesDo it twice and it hides the outlines tooDo it thrice and you get your HUD backCtrl+Shift+I again to disable debug
>>487642357Okay Just did the math and it doesn't make sense.If I sell a spider with all it's default loadout, it sells for 1.9mil.If I strip the mech and remove everything, it sells for 1.1mill.Yet all the equipment and weapons are only worth roughly 450k. So selling it with it's default loadout somehow gets you an extra 350k than selling jus the mech and it's parts separately would.Now, that could be factoring in the maintenance costs of adding and removing the gear. It cost 60k to trip it and 180k to load it back up. So that would only be 240k if factoring in that.The only thing I could think effecting this is maybe it's because the mech has no damage to the structure. That might be adding some sort of hidden multiplier or something. I'm testing this out in a system that is neutral to me so I'm not getting bonus/malus from reputation.
>>487645631Alright well this time I tried only removing the engine.The 240 engine sells for 294k, but removing it dropped the selling price of the mech from 1.9mil to 1.2mil.So i guess the lesson is leave the engine in it unless you are gonna use it.
>>487635887Is the Nebulous team just the one guy? Pretty sure he was USN at some point or still is, so maybe he's got a bit of a different work ethic.The carrier update looks rad. Really excited to see the other frames and the weapons/equipment we can cram into them. Hope the missile designer will let us create some real bullshit designs for our wings.
>>487643196It's not that hard, anon.Stalker: Chunky legs and rectangular, mixed laser+missile boxes left and right of the torso.Catapult: Slender legs and muhc wider, quadratic missile boxes to the upper left and right of the torso.
Oh boy. i've been playing with the mod that makes salvage crates worth actually picking up. (seriously the vanilla 12k c-bills and a LRM10-teir weapon is a joke) but this is my first time finding a SLDF salvage. Hope it's something good.
>>486723524Micro Prose gets a new developer, Sebastian Bae, and a digital version of his "Littoral Commander" wargame series.
>>487659928Gay
>>487656172inb4 it was just some popular holovids of the time
>>487680180It was a champion, a PHX-2, a few FCSs, and the ability to kill warewolfs.I was happy when i saw the champion since my only heavy/assault Mechs are a dragon and an Atlas, both of which I must of gotten good RNG in the resource mission gacha.However the Champion s a strange mech. It looks like a plane from an 80s/90s anime with legs. I'm not a big fan of torso mounted weapons but who knows maybe it has recent torso rotation speed.
>>487680796>It looks like a plane from an 80s/90s anime with legsthe funny part is that it ISN'T one of the ones that is based on an actual "80s anime plane with legs" (as in, it isn't one of the ones that originally used a Macross design)
>>487681674That's funny because they first thing i thought when I saw it was it looked like it is something they'd fly around in in Dragon Ball.
Any other games in this style?Basically games where planning an approach is a major part of itI remember the old Rainbow Six having something similar, where you could route out the map and choose where the AI went
>>487690854can't think of anything but you should try steampeek, just to be sure

>>487635887nebulous also has it's own issues
>>487635887Nebulous devs are still retarded. They gave in to literal discord trannies and abandoned the conquest mode.
>>487690854No Plan B
>>487680796Finding that randomly sounds busted. But then again, you can just fly around and buy "end game" mechs like an hour into the game.I really fucking hate how mw is this low effort procedural slop.
>>487701336It doesn't have to be, several of its other entries are much more structured
>>487703518I know it's just laziness on their part.
>>487697460what the fuck?Feels weird for them to release a DLC for the game that's directly competing with their newer game
>>487697460>Wargame still getting contentFuck on! Although It'd be better if it had more players
>>487709869It's one of those games where you need to sit in an empty lobby and just play whoever joins first and sometimes the guy has 999999 hours and sometimes he has 0.01 or bite the bullet and play those shitty 10v10 destruction lobbies against stacked teams in discordor join a "community" that does "community lobbies" which are shitty 10v10 destruction lobbies but with gay rules like "no arty/smoke only"
>>487711494>and play those shitty 10v10 destruction lobbiesWhat do you mean? That sounds great, I love complete mayhe-->stacked teams in discordNever fucking mind...
>>48771181610v10s just means that you have your own little lane you're fighting over instead of having the whole map to maneuver around.Then if you start winning and dare to push you get 10 players worth of aircrafts bombing you.And if your aircrafts ever cross the middle of the map they're flying over 20 AAA pieces and will be chased by 20 interceptorsAnd since it's destruction all people do is hold defensive positions and spam artillery until one team wins.And most people on the not-stacked team will leave as soon as they lose a couple of units.It might good if you want to see things blow up for 40 minutes but it has none of the complexity that lower-player conquest lobbies have.I'm super rusty but if you people ever want to start an /&tg/ lobby I'm up for it
>>487712915>hyper defensive play>everyone ganging up on you if you dare go over the frontlinesounds like me and a buddy playing CoH against bots>will leave as soon as they lose a couple of units.This type of behavior is already pure aids in a shooter, must be 10 times worse in an RTS where some rando can't (or won't) replace them quickly enough.
>>487672775I'm sorry to be the one to tell you, but you're gay anon...Having watched a few videos on the tabletop version this seems pretty fun. Basically a multi-domain Flashpoint Campaigns with naval added in. Scratches that itch for her based military autism but in the very barren ultra-modern setting.There's a sequel board game set in the Baltic region as well.https://youtu.be/T7ufNuNMAJQ?si=I1U3Admq4T2T7H3o
>>487635887I would really be interested in Nebulous if it had a "one ship" mode. I don't want to have to think about multiple ships, give me One Ship to captain.
>>487444290it's trash, finished this garbage dlc within an hour and not touching it again until next content update
Just unlocked class modification. Would it be better to replace Eclipse Blades' taste of blood with combat focus (+dodge) or carnage (more damage)?
I love the Awesome.Last drop I did was hell, but this guy pulled me through. Tanked so much damage, lost both arms and it still kept going with its nipple PPCs.
>>487635887watching a few videos on it and seeing the community make their own tier list's and allot of the "new hit things" are actually the least wanted - https://tiermaker.com/create/projectzomboid-b42-features-tier-list-17321568To bad I dont really care about space games F Starbound, f is for FUCK
>>487745825It's pretty __good__
Is Reforger a decent followup for RS2? Are there any modernish/alive titles that are similar? Feels like RS2 hit the balance of playing the game/immersion for me but is kinda dead nowadays.I like the gameplay feel of squad but 90% of matches feel like fob building simulator/sweating instant caps between SLs. ARMA3 is a bit janky and there's no "normalish" multiplayer mode (also it seems to sit at about 40frames). Snadstrom just kinda feels meh and too twitch shooter-y, not like source atall.Other games I'm looking at are Squad44 and HLL, HLL seems closest to RS2 in terms of actually playing the game, though seems like they have some publisher trouble atm? might just be community sperging out tho>inb4 '83im still upset

this map in DK 1 reminds me of an episode from Chicago Fire

anyone else drop mods for &tacticals immediately upon seeing they use gen AI?it's all so tiresome. I would much rather see drawn stick figures and lorem ipsum over that shit
>>487751286Not really. My only concern is if the output is garbage, which it usually is
>>487751286I don’t even bother looking at the “/&tg/” repository. I don’t think a lot of people do, because when you click on the link it turns into a long winded blog. I only go there to see if they have the games I want to talk about.
>>487753770whatthat's not what I'm talking about at all
>>487753897I don't see what you might be talking about. Could you quote or link to the specific text you're referring to?
>>487746476honestly I don't see the point of most of what's in B42; game's fine enough as it is now
>>487700670muh discord trannies muh pvp sweats muh no singleplayer
>>487700670many such cases.devs should never interact with their players in real-time.

>>487835195What is it that makes UE look so uncanny? Is it the post processing?

>>487844116I don't know what engine it is but I've seen more than one unity game use those tree assets.I've recently noticed a few bots/schizos in different threads running some kind of smear campaign against UE.It's really weird.
