I just wanted to say this is the kind of comments that make Lemmy better than reddit! I had to dig to the very bottom of the reddit post for someone to point this out versus this being the top comment on Lemmy.
Note: I am all for helping homeless people, but excluding information in the title makes this seem like ‘if we give every homeless person $7,500 we can solve homelessness!’ I wish that was the case, but homelessness is a much more complicated issue
Interesting, I guess I’ll need to download when it goes from PTU to Live.
I appreciate the response!
So, with this update how is Arena commander now? Once in a blue moon I would download and play it, but it always seemed a little buggy. I specifically remember having issues with the flight models (fighting with the AI was a lot of ‘knife fighting’, where we would each fly at each other at high speeds, slightly damage each other, and then turn around, but maybe that was my fault).
I also remember the missile system either straight up not working or being OP and immediately killing ships (including mine).
Arena Commander being great is a big dream of mine. I just want to sit down and dogfight in space alot of the time. It would require significantly less work than Elite where I have to fly around and find a combat area/mission to dog fight (and in the end I only really break even b/c the cost of the ammo I was using sucks up any money I made on the contract…)
Fuck me id kill for some Spam musubi right now
TBH, it was literally Day 1 hours after they released it. I think they patched the issue within a couple days, but by then I had already refunded. I’m impressed that it runs on Steam Deck. That’s some good optimization especially for a triple A game that just came out.
Added the ability to sort by date added to library to shelves and game grids.
I can finally stare at my backlog while I fail to move through it!
Battlebit has been scratching this itch really well for me lately. I hope the battlefield series can make a return to form but I am not holding my breath. Shooters tend to change with the times (imagine if all games still played like the original DOOM?) and I imagine they’re going to keep changing things, but hopefully for the better.
It’s interesting to compare Battlefield vs. Call of Duty and how the games have done in the past decade. COD is still a top seller and is doing great, Battlefield not so much. I feel like they both have iterated in ways (the newer COD games are similar to the ones I played in the early ~2010’s, but there have been some changes), but the ways COD has iterated have been better accepted. They even had a Battle Royale attached to the game (It sounds like BF was trying to do this at one point) and it was positively received as well.
I REALLY REALLY wanted this game to pan out because I love the genre. Too bad it flopped hard :(.
I bought it day 1 with the intent of (at a minimum) giving it a try until my refund period ran out and it ran like ass. The opening cutscene was a slideshow and that’s with me running a Ryzen 7 5800x, GTX 3070, and 32gb of ram. I started googling to see if it was an issue with drivers or my system and that was when I started seeing reviews for it that weren’t too great. I went ahead and refunded it at that point.
Fantastic read, thanks for sharing!!!
I’m still rocking my TWCS! I’m excited but not in a rush. Star Citizen still isn’t in the state I was hoping it would be and I don’t play Elite Dangerous anymore. I’m an avid DCS’er but I’ve taken a bit of a break recently. At this point, I’m not sure I’d use it enough, so I may wait a another year or so before I grab one.
Must have been using a weird microwave to make a banana like that.
Quality write up, I appreciate having more context on this painting!
