I accidentally bought Minecraft for windows for someone when I wanted java… so that was fun.
The launcher just says “here are the options” it doesn’t say why you might want to choose one over another. Ive played since day 0 so I’ve always gone with java.
Just felt like if bedrock was meant to replace java they should have just done it and dealt with it instead of having so many choices.
Thanks for the info + @[email protected] & @[email protected]
Genuine question: why does bedrock exist? What does it bring? Why is there the choice between java, bedrock and “Minecraft for windows”?
How do you fuck up this badly?
I tried using the launcher to move a java install from C: to another drive and it just points there and doesn’t do anything? Steam had this stuff figured years ago
It’s definitely flawed in a bunch of ways, I usually play with a hardcore self imposed rule set, getting good ammo to beat armour is one way, another way is just avoiding those fights or taking medium quality ammo from the corpses of other players after the shooting stops.
There are some changes soon where armour is more localised, meaning a spray of cheap ammo to the torso still stands a chance of getting through for massive damage. It may also reduce the number of people wearing armour. I’ve not played in a while, the AI is what really turns me off, dying to a bot a mile away without warning. But that’s also part of the charm. shrug
The one time I got a prebuilt desktop for myself it was an HP Omen. Terrible decision.
Single unit radiator that struggled to cope with the CPU under any load, custom case so a larger rad AIO won’t fit, buy a new case.
Usb controllers overwhelmed while streaming and gaming so bought a controller card. Nope, there is only one slot on the mobo and that’s for graphics. (Yes, I should have checked first)
Useless bloatware always crashing and popping up over screen. Changes made to windows registry mean sounds fade in if no sound was played for a while (including alerts or memes on stream so you only hear the last part)
Many regrets.
Jagged Alliance 3 on hard. It’s been pretty fun streaming it, a few choices but really I just enjoy making the map turn blue.
A few nice callbacks to JA2, decent voice acting. Running cheapest mercs I can get away with because the diamond mines keep running dry and I’m barely breaking even most of the time.
It’s a fitting successor to JA2 and I hope there are expansions in future.
In a similar vein, if you want to try something new check out starsector. You have to get it from their website currently but it’s a great game, lots of potential, lots of mods.
You can try to revive the sector, build your own mega corp, become a pirate, be a slaver, be an anti-slaver, gun running.
No FPS parts though
