God, Snow Leopard was peak Apple.

meh, this one can die.

One guy was like that, but I really hated how samey the maps and weapons all were. Very little important difference between the vehicles within their class. Most engagements came down to who say the other person first. If it was more realistic and I could disable a tank’s movement by targeting the treads first or if driving a buggy from too high a drop would blow out the suspension, I would probably liked it more, but you really couldn’t play it very creatively.

But why? What’s the motive behind not just queuing low ranking players with each other?

I was always more a ut2k4 guy. I need to spend a weekend tracking down and installing the linux binary for that game. But even then the most active servers just play the same few maps. I could play some FaceClassic, but not for hours on end.

I’m also working on fixing an old gamepad I use to use for these games. Unlike ones that use cherry based switches, this one just uses those small, tactile switches with crazy small travel distance.

ah

I was seeing people leave arena shooters for the military shooters long before BR games were a thing. My lan group was more interested in RPing as army dudes then any thing that required fast reflexes. I played way too many hours of Battlefield 2 just because I was trying to be social with that group. Terrible game. The fan made maps were pretty good, but because fan made maps were never ranked, no one would play them outside of lan parties.

What? No zombies or lgbtq relationships?

I’ll just stick to my single player, retro revival titles.

I certainly never went to lan parties for the company anyway.

I wasn’t going to play a hero shooter anyway, but fuck this. I just want to go back to arena shooters, server browsers and no stat tracking.

On that same idea, camrips sold out of the back of a car. I knew someone who bragged about being able to get them and I always thought they looked like ass. They just liked acting like they had hood connections.

that’s not the most amazing building security ever.

For anyone wanting a read.

“Broke in” is a bit of an exaggeration. Their cards simply weren’t turned off and they managed to fake it until the project was finished.

Small teams being allowed to do what they want can still give good results, but you aren’t going to see that at major companies. I almost solely play indie games by micro or solo dev teams.

The two people you are replying to probably aren’t Americans. One posts in a Philippines com and the other from a .uk domain.

I’m not going to call Korea is a cesspool, but things do seem more desperate there. They’re deep in late stage capitalism(I’m not endorsing NK btw), but still haven’t been disillusioned by the promise and are looking to blame anything else. Somethings not right when Samsung Group accounts for around 22 percent of the GDP.

God, that happened with a friend of mine who we drifted apart during covid. He was never really a feminist in the first place, but started consuming gamer gate shit. Doesn’t have time to play games, but likes to listen to outrage.

Dumb fucks

For those who need the context.

Ever notice how Mel Gibson kept getting cast as insane people or creepers or both at the same time?
