Gyro on the LEFT stick is interesting. I usually have mine always on, but I guess with the track pad and everything you don't need to reach for the d-pad?

Just like a movie theater, people are used to 24fps in a movie and anything else makes it seem weird and less dreamlike to transport them into the world. (But games aren't 24fps movies, I know. Not the point)

When you clean up all of the visual post processing, the game will look extremely clean. Which makes it feel like it's missing some kinda extra polish. People are so used to all of these elements added for a grounded and dirtier experience that without them it looks, and more importantly, feels too game-y for Ubisoft. (Counter-Strike is super clean, for example)

Look at Resident Evil 2 Remake and you see every single cinematic option in the book, down to lens distortion, being used and being able to be turned off in the settings. It's the look and feel the studio wants to go for.

SBMM has the fatal flaw of expecting players to want to constantly improve with every match. Sometimes we want to play to relax, but that's never on its mind.

Maybe they should focus on the carbon footprint of large companies and what they can do about it instead of constantly doing these studies that constantly demean us for trying to just live.

Edit: I've just realized this article celebrates working from home

Combat was the incredible highlight of this game.

Seeing most of the fixes go towards that instead of immersion kinda... You'd think they highlight those immersive aspects more. The mods are sure as hell all about immersion including working stock markets and such.

There's an important moment where you have to ask yourself...

"Is this story so bad I'm not invested in it anymore?"

"Is the gameplay bothering me so much that it feels bad or unfun to me?"

If the answer is yes to both of those, you may feel free to drop the game with full confidence you're not gonna play it again.

As someone who recently got hit by a silver Honda in the middle of heavy rain. Look left as many fucking times as you can because there might be an invisible car without headlights on in the rain.

Definitely a Pic to make me subscribe to this community!

Good to take note of not being able to post yet. I did spot a block button near the top when you enter a community. So maybe it's there for now before becoming an extra option.

One thing that's completely new to me is the ability to turn on holding on a post and it opens it IN THE BACKGROUND so you can multi-task! Sick!

Alternatively, Sync had so many updates that paying for Ultra once so many years ago felt like I stole it. It's like $17 a year? I could do that easily to support the dev.

Read the update. Looks like an ex was trying to get him cancelled. But I guess a lot of other shit came out.

There's 3 people working on this game and there's hundreds of cheaters popping up every other day. It's a massive load.

Especially when they also have to deal with DDOS attacks as they try to keep their servers alive for so many people too.

It's 100% warranted and I'm glad they still saved a path for Linux. Even if it's like, "You must be on the STEAM Kernal" or something, it might unlock a path for other anti-cheat to have some sort of access on Linux as well.
