Fucking Gearbox tied gameplay elements to the game’s framerate when it ran fine uncapped before this update, and at higher frame rates you have a higher chance to have desyncs in multiplayer. I wish this company would go out of business already.
I remember when gearbox released a video about working on ROR2 after they acquired the IP. The CEO or creative director or whoever was talking about understanding people’s expectations, and called them “users”. Not players, not fans, just “users”. I thought this was a good enough warning that they had no idea what they were doing.
I think it was this video but I don’t remember the timestamp : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uzD3jWETeW4 the fact that this is barely a documentary on the history of the game and itself a disguised and for their upcoming (at the time) dlc was another forewarning sign…
As a dev I would refer to the people running my software as users all the time, a user runs software under a user profile with their limited user privileges, we might write the user data to the user home directory, identity them on the backend by some user id but probably want to use the user display name on the UI.
Its not derogatory but when your implementing the software the user holds a distinct role and is perfectly valid terminology for the person using the software.
User to me falls in a similar category to “client” or “customer”, none are derogatory, but they’re all very transactional. “Fan” or “gamer” feel more familiar, like a hotel “guest”. It’s a minor distinction, but it implies more of a two way relationship, and from personal experience, the language used by leadership tends to closely tie to how employees treat their customers.

Randy Shitfork should go back watching underaged “squirt magic”.
For my friends the game is largely unplayable now due to broken mod support.
I haven’t played the DLC but I have played with the Chef mod and from the reviews it seems like a random modder made a better Chef than Gearbox.

Thats like game dev 101, don’t tie shit to framerate and they still fuck it up

That was what I was trying to convey thanks for being better at words haha
Man how could they have dropped it this bad? I read that the previous expansion was already under them and survivors of the void was good.
The original developers worked on the previous expansion.
