Smogon deez nuts

I had to use it for Gears of War 4 and Gears of War UE. My experiences:

• It’s taking half an hour to start the download. What the fuck is it doing?
• Oh good, it’s almost installed. Oh it paused for some reason? No problem I’ll just resume- oh, it’s just restarted the whole 120GB download.
• I’ll restart my PC because Steam can pick up where it pauses between restarts and surely Microsoft the creator of the fucking OS can get something basic like that correct- oh I guess not.
• Oh sweet an update for Gears, oh wait no it’s redownloading the entire game to apply the update.
• Why isn’t the update downloading? Oh support is telling me I need to uninstall and reinstall the game. Oh that didn’t work this time and instead I need to enter an obscure wsreset command instead?
• What do you mean I can’t access the game folder to look at the files?
• Why isn’t the game launching any more? It’s just stuck on the splash screen. Oh the store says it’s corrupt? It needs a full redownload again.

Not to mention the issues with Microsoft sign in/Teredo once in-game.

The Xbox app has the same issues because it’s just a differently coloured UI over the same APIs. They’ve had multiple decades and still can’t get the basics right, I think Steam will be fine.

From can buy their shares back. The bigger story is the effective monopoly Sony would have on anime after this.

I completed a build a couple of months ago:

• ASRock X670E Steel Legend
• Ryzen 7 7800X3D
• 128 GB of G.Skill Trident Z5 Neo
• Nvidia RTX 4090 Founders Edition
• Bunch of NVMe storage
• Fractal Design Meshify 2

I mostly emulate stuff or play 2D games, otherwise I’m working through my boomer shooter backlog.

It’s available everywhere actually: https://fitgirl-repacks.site/horizon-zero-dawn/

It’s now bundled with the remake so you can get both, or if you have the original you get a cheap upgrade. This is what I see, I own the original:

Implementing a CHIP-8 is a good way to get into emulation:

• https://github.com/mattmikolay/chip-8/wiki/CHIP‐8-Technical-Reference
• http://devernay.free.fr/hacks/chip8/C8TECH10.HTM

Lends further credibility to the idea that Switch 2 is just a souped up Switch. They don’t want 100% of the launch library playable on day one with some minor changes to the emulator. I guess we can expect an announcement soon.

His name’s Vamp because he’s bi, not because he drinks human blood.

Steam has supported this for a very long time, it’s just down to the developer to use it e.g. https://steamdb.info/app/28050/depots/

Friend me up, friend: <removed as I’ve received the code, thanks>

Are you just not good enough to play around it?

It doesn’t bother me personally as I’m used to carrying. I’m max level in Gears 5 and carry brand new players on the max level Horde matchmaking all the time. It bothers me at a systemic level that they’re allowed to queue for it because they’re clearly having a miserable time, a minimum level requirement is all I ask for but I guess that would be too much to ask and instead those newbies should just keep suffering while unintentionally ruining the experience for everybody else. It would be bullying to ask them to queue for a lower difficulty after all.

I’ve had people send me hate mail and death threats for just suggesting they play a lower difficulty or even just the tutorial but that’s OK because it’s actually the developer who’s in the wrong. Silly me.

Don’t blame people who don’t know what they’re doing for your lack of skill

If they could just go away and take the time to learn in the queue clearly marked “beginner” that would be better for everybody involved. My skill can only carry the game so far when they’re running into no-man’s land and unintentionally sabotaging the game for everybody else.

But asking them to learn the game would be criticising them and might feed my god complex so that’s out of the question apparently.

they bought the goddamn game, shit players are part of the gameplay.

How does this work for free to play games like Halo Infinite where I get brand new accounts queueing for Legendary firefight who stare at weapon pickups trying to figure out which button to press?

Level 1 accounts are entitled to queue for endgame content actually. The players have no agency in making that decision and its all the developer’s fault. What, are you some kind of bully? I’m calling the cyberpolice and posting a wall of text to hexbear dot net.
