When I played COD (whatever the last one was before this most recent release) I loved playing shipment for laughs. Hide in a corner and setup claymores while aiming my shotgun down sight. Stupid stuff like that. I’d be 10-30 by the end but I’d have so much fun. To me it’s almost like an arcade mode.
It’s like when people that cheat on others in their relationships start accusing their partners of cheating or have major trust issues because of their guilt (or whatever it is). And by that same logic I conclude that Nickmercs is a pedo (if he can do it with the LGBTQ community without evidence then he wouldn’t mind me making similarly wild claims about him, right?).
I haven’t read anything about the game yet but just based on this trailer I’m getting a Dark Tide meets Helldivers vibe and I’m all for it.
Haven’t played since close to launch (because it was very laggy). I really liked the idea and had a lot of fun when it was working. I haven’t played in a while so I can’t comment on the current state of the game but if you like Tarkov or DMZ there’s a good chance you’ll like this game. It feels like it’s somewhere between the arcade feel of DMZ and the milsim feel of Tarkov.
I also like that it’s one big living map. I haven’t tested it but I’m pretty sure you can be in one zone and run all the way over to a totally different zone (what would be considered a different map in Tarkov). The map feels super big. I’m excited to check it out again.
Then offer education or ignore the post. You know what’s easier than OP googling the question? You not responding to OP if you don’t have anything of value to add. You’re here with a passive aggressive “let me Google that for you” bullshit attitude yet YOU’RE upset at OP for not being better at searching for their answers?
I agree people should put more effort into trying to figure it out on their own and learning how to ask good questions but the tone of your comments is more detrimental to the quality of these communities than a “stupid question” ever will be.
Now we have millions of useless posts being archived like this one.
The archives! Why won’t anyone think of the archives!?
If we have room for comments like yours in the archives then we have room for legitimate questions by beginners in there too. Your post history shows a significant amount of deleted comments and downvotes. I bet they were all very productive and helpful comments for the archives, right?
Not OP comment but I had no idea Wayland supported all of that. Thanks for sharing! I really need to leave my Linux bubble more often.
Finally. My low sensitivity for gaming is about to pay off.
“Did you see that email?”
“My cursor is on its way to check”
Whoa didn’t even hear about this. Some of my favorite games ever are the Pharaoh and Caesar games by Impressions Games. Gonna have to check it out!
Agreed. I am not a fantasy fan for games really at all (with very few exceptions) but this looks so rad. The combination of tech and fantasy looks like a wild ride.
When I first saw the trailer I thought it was official. My heart broke when I learned the truth. Been playing Half Life since the original came out in 1998. That was an amazing Thanksgiving as a 14yr old.
I remember being at Costco with my mom and back then they had tables set up in the entrance with tons of software and game boxes and I looked at the back of the box and thought “cool! I want it!”. Asked my mom if I could get it as an early Christmas gift who never said yes to that kind of thing and she said yes. I couldn’t believe it.
I remember playing it and being so confused in the intro when you’re on the train/tram because I couldn’t figure out how to get off. I was so used to FPS games like Quake and Doom where you just clicked “new game” and were just dropped into the action or there were basic cinematics setting up the story. The build up to the action was so unique at the time it blew me away.
Sorry for the novel. Just so many fond memories of this game and I was really stoked when I saw this stupidly well done trailer haha.
To that point it’s probably going to be a lot slower than running it on an HDD too. That said, the USB performance is surprisingly good when you consider you’re literally running an OS over USB and the OS isn’t even in an optimized state.
Got my new Thinkpad T14S yesterday and immediately installed Linux Mint. I refuse to give in to the Windows 11 pressure.
And at least in the Unix context it’s a positive term.
