People win fps tournaments with controller now. Its harder for the mouse and keyboard player because they have to actually aim. Snap aim + look speed being slowed as you have your scope on people is bullshit. Someone slides past and your aim follows them. Thats never happening on mouse and keyboard and the player has to track that and move.




Its already made a difference there is no debating that it does reduce cheaters. If you force people to buy specialised hardware to cheat less people will do it. Cheaters dont need to be 0 for it to be worth it. All you need is for players to not regularly run into cheaters and perceive there to be competitive integrity inthier online games.



I love l4d2 and when i saw b4b on sale for $5 I was so excited. Surely I can get $5 of value of out this game. Nope after playing the first level everything was off with the game and I refunded it.

I instantly disliked the shooting and quickly grew to hate all the colourful effects they added. None of the effects fit the style of the game.


You can’t be out of the game this long and think you’re going to make another left 4 dead. We saw that with back 4 blood and we will see it with this one.


If that guy wasnt being paid his salary to do whatever the fuck he does I’d bet my left nut he wouldnt give a single fuck about co pilot and would probably be driving a macbook


Its not hype its marketing. There is not a single soul on this earth genuinely hyped about co pilot.


Tf2 does have a cheating problem. The only reason people dont care is because there is no stakes to the game. People dont play the ranked mode so its just people cheating in nothing stakes public games.




Uh no I’m a linux user and i know the anti cheats that do support linux do basically nothing since any root process can hook in. If majority of gamers were on linux multiplayer games would be unplayable.

Anti cheat is always a Cat and mouse solution not just on the client side and that doesnt mean its bad and cat and mouse solutions do still reduce cheaters.

Good server side anti cheat is a perfect ideal solution, its never existed and I don’t think it will exist.


I’m aware but games and players still want a strong anti cheating solution. There is no protection currently on linux for cheating.



Yes but if linux gets popular those games will get linux cheaters and will be pressured to do something.


On one hand I’m happy its dead because paradox deserves this. But on the other hand I spent $80 on this and I really thought it had the base to be an amazing game.


The manoeuvrability is only on the accent as the missile is blinded by the plasma on reentry. Its still very interceptable. As soon as its launched NATO will be tracking it.

Time for russia to rattle their new temu saber and Trump is such a spineless cunt he’ll cave instantly.


Tarkov needs to stay alive to contain the worst of the community away from arc raiders.


How would it not? There is not currently a ps5 games launcher on PC for them to issue your games to.

I think a launcher is a minor problem to have games available on both platforms. This would move so many people I know over to PC gaming.


At school there were a bunch of Xbox cod players that were friends and I was in their class and they gave me so much shit every day. It was like 5v1 and 3 were way bigger than me and 1 my size and 1 smaller. We would always argue about which friend group was better but could not resolve it because my friends and i were on ps3. We ended up getting to rank 1 on this team ladder and they were so mad they pushed me around and pushed me over. So I when i saw their small friend alone in the hallway I attacked him. Didnt do any damage because was to young to cause proper damage. Just called him racial slurs and punched him in the face and pushed him over. It was the style at time.

The next day I thought i was dead as soon as I got to class. But actually it turns out they pretended it never happened and ignored me and we didnt really argue after that. The only conversions we had after were small talk asking thoughts on the new game or guns perks etc.

I got beat up for fucking up someone’s trickshot in search and destroy. We took mw2 a little to seriously that game was our life.

Another one. About 2005 my friend had a birthday we a went to his house and did stuff but then played runescape and he had no items so he logged into his older brothers account and drop traded us his rune set. I got a rune platebody that I could NOT wear. His brother pm ingame asking for it back the next day and I said I had no idea what he was talking about. Then on Monday he beat him up at school until I said I would give it back and then he hunted down all of my friends who got his given his items.


I was playing in a group of 4 and am just spitballing time. Its been a while so maybe it was 12hr+


Devs complain thats it hard and feels like a lottery but thats just because there are so many good games on steam its so hard to standout. Game making is very competitive, very work intensive and very unpredictable.


I’m the opposite, I find user assigned tags to be far more accurate. Otherwise every game would be put into the most generic categories. From my experience the tags are generally accurate.


He wasnt talking about search it was about algorithmic recommendation.

But you can filter by multiple tags. When you click search select the advanced search at the bottom of the dropdown. It does all the things you mention and far more


I forgot how good text on buttons is. Fuck trying to remember every stupid app or function icon


Its funny that windows users are asking for the most basic shit like searching their own computer and Microsoft is like nah im going to give you bing and ads


Is discovery a dumpster fire? I mean sure it could be better but I dont think its a dumpster fire. It seems there are constantly new small team indie games doing wild numbers on the platform. If discovery was truely bad we would be seeing the charts dominated by big studios.


Yes I agree it looks so amazing. I love seeing Satisfactory base tours and seeing all the different setups I just cant enjoy playing it myself sadly.


I had the same feeling, didnt really like the characters they were weird but after modding some custom ones in I enjoyed it a lot more. I did keep astrlas ans shadow heart then put my own two characters to fill the party.


My favourite part of returning to camp was lying to gale that I’d found no magical items while having 4 characters invs basically overflowing with items I didnt want.


After Jesse died my motivation to continue dropped off a cliff. All the other characters are so boring and uninteresting. I cringe everytime johnny silver hand shows up. Also the driving and gunplay feels really really bad. Its got skyrim-like clunkiness without the flexibility and interesting world to make it worth while.


Yeah I’m a huge factorio player and I so badly wanted to like satisfactory but i can only describe the gameplay as cock and ball torture. For the first 6 hours you are getting kicked in the balls repeatedly by pointless tasks that drag you out of the automation loop. The game is not playable until you unlock the hydro power.

With friends it helped mask the pain.



Crazy it took this long tbh. Looking at Old school should have been enough of an example. But Jagex in typical Jagex fashion cant do anything and requires the community to stop the game driving off a cliff.

(Yes I am Jagex biggest hater)



I like inzoi’s use of AI. I think its really cool and its much needed to fill the content gap that the decade old sims franchise has until the inzoi community can step in and create some content.


I think we should be careful touting linux as more preformant in games than windows because when people switch they wi find that isnt always the case. There are two situations where linux beats windows. CPU intensive games and on systems where the CPU is really bad and sometimes really bad dx12 games.

In every other case the preformance comes down to the gpu drivers which are undeniably better and more tuned on windows.

But this is not bad. I think its still very convincing to be able to say you can get away from windows and switch to linux barely losing any preformance and even in some cases gain it.


That looks so good. Imagine if people started making games for it. That would be a true ds spiritual successor


I saw this picture while looking at overclocking guides and I wondered if I may have my power setup incorrectly. My GPU is currently connected exactly like the don't do this diagram.

For the people playing City Skylines 2 how do you solve 'High rent"
I cant seem to get rid of the high rent tags on my residential and industrial sectors. For residential Ive tried adding low cost housing but i dont know what to try with industrial. ![](https://lemmy.nz/pictrs/image/ec8bb782-3cf9-4612-975b-a05503a3aa4e.png) ![](https://lemmy.nz/pictrs/image/adfe9656-f32b-4e41-b364-5a52ec23b8d5.png)
