“endure” 🫡

Remember remember Payday 3 in September

Earth, wind and fire?

Haha, no but that tickles me

Guy Fawkes (the guy the V for Vendetta mask represents) tried to blow up UK parliament in the 1600s. The Brits have a nursery rhyme for it:

“Remember, remember the 5th of November, gunpowder, treason and plot; for there is a reason why gunpowder and treason should ne’er be forgot.”

I was just being silly by implying that living thru Payday 3 server issues are on the same level and get their own version of the rhyme

You had me doubting my memory for a moment there. I used to know the movie version by heart, but it’s been a hot minute. 😄

Maybe it’s time for a rewatch

I started getting into games this morning. It’s fun. I don’t like the online-only part of the game, but they support Linux straight from release, and I will always support that.

blindbunny, 10 miesięcy temu

This is an important take. I didn’t even know it was Linux native. I believe all of the payday games are. Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong.

Mambert, 10 miesięcy temu

IIRC payday 2 lost it’s native Linux build, however, I never played it, just used proton.

AndrasKrigare, 10 miesięcy temu

Surprisingly, I have some games where proton actually runs better than native. Proton’s gotten really good at this point.

Mambert, 10 miesięcy temu

Same! I have some games launch natively end up being super zoomed into one corner, can’t navigate around or anything. I have no idea what the fix is, but switching to proton works.

arefx, 10 miesięcy temu

I played a bit of payday 2 on my deck and it ran great, I’m not sure if it was using proton or what but I had no issues. I just wish the anti cheat companies would develop their stuff to work on Linux

Callie, 10 miesięcy temu

that’s pretty great that a big release like this supports Linux

Why the fuck not?

Cause it’s fucking cool

AMERICA!!! FUCK YEAH!!

Sorry, I had to

I mean this is pretty much par for the course for any online game launch. Hey, at least some people will stop buying early access so eagerly.

nottheengineer, 10 miesięcy temu do games w Payday 3 players endure second consecutive day of server issues, preventing them from playing

They had three days of load testing and the infrastructure still failed on launch.

Sounds like the devs knew it wouldn’t work but management insisted on launching anyways.

vsh, 10 miesięcy temu

Meanwhile Larian (BG3 devs) held the newest patch for one additional day to test it out and make sure it works properly. You really see the difference.

Pxtl, 10 miesięcy temu do games w Payday 3 players endure second consecutive day of server issues, preventing them from playing

P2P and player-owned dedicated servers need to come back. This “everything runs on the cloud” stuff is so bad on so many levels.

orca, 10 miesięcy temu

It also means players get rugpulled whenever the suits decide the game is no longer worth maintaining.

Pxtl, 10 miesięcy temu

Exactly. I wonder if it’s possible to make a commercial game that’s fully decentralized. Sell the licenses as NFTs, use activitypub for the masterserver so you just toot out your games, release the game and dedicated server as free binaries. I hate NFTs but they’d be more consumer-rights friendly than the current approach of steam owns everything.

mindbleach, 10 miesięcy temu

Seriously, it’s a four-player game. Not some MMO clusterfuck. Not an arena shooter bragging about 128 codblops on a single map, like it’s Stand On Nuketown. You need matchmaking - you want anticheat - you’ll do some DRM bullshit. Other than that you should want to offload bandwidth and latency to your players. They’re all on the same team!

GreenMario, 10 miesięcy temu do games w Payday 3 players endure second consecutive day of server issues, preventing them from playing

Yeah Day 1 was completely unplayable for our 4 man group. Like we don’t need matchmaking we’re in a party just roll a server up and go.

Seems fine now since last night, had no issues getting games going.

SnakeRattleNRoll, 10 miesięcy temu

I envy you - was able to play a few matches shortly after release with friends, and havent been able to find a match since.

Solo, with friends, public - doesnt matter, just sits and searches for upwards of 30 minutes before i opt for something else.

GreenMario, 10 miesięcy temu

I went to work but apparently some of my friends are still struggling to get into games so it’s not fixed yet, we just have caught a downtime period I guess.

ollie, 10 miesięcy temu do gaming w Payday 3 players endure second consecutive day of server issues, preventing them from playing

if only there was a way where… the game could be offline play-able… with a bonus of being free…

Callie, 10 miesięcy temu do gaming w Payday 3 players endure second consecutive day of server issues, preventing them from playing

maybe, idk, don’t require servers for every aspect of your game

Pseu, 10 miesięcy temu

Does Payday have a singleplayer mode? I thought it was a multiplayer game.

peter, 10 miesięcy temu

I know payday 2 at least you could play it with yourself and 3 bots

Callie, 10 miesięcy temu

yeah, it had solo. you’d case the area by yourself while 3 bots stayed behind, until alarms triggered. you could also configure who the bots were and what their loadout was

TabbyCat, 10 miesięcy temu

It does, but as far as I know PD3 still requires an online connection for single player. I've read issues of people lagging in single player, that's crazy.

DoucheBagMcSwag, 10 miesięcy temu

But how could they have it as another over monetized live service then?

Callie, 10 miesięcy temu

same way they monetized Payday 2 since it was already pretty live-service-esque in it’s monetization, at least on PC. if they wanted to, they could have just added a battlepass with limited cosmetics alongside the steam marketplace cosmetics of Payday 2

Isn’t CoD supposed to be the “realistic shooter”? Things have changed a bit since I was fighting in WW2 a decade ago…

geosoco, 10 miesięcy temu

They've run out of scenarios, but the brand must go on.

InEnduringGrowStrong, 10 miesięcy temu do games w Diablo's Lilith and supervillain Skeletor will be playable in Call of Duty

They forgot to milk Crash Bandicoot and Tony Hawk here.
What a boring soulless corporate grab.

mindbleach, 10 miesięcy temu do games w Diablo's Lilith and supervillain Skeletor will be playable in Call of Duty

They so desperately want to be Fortnite.

Alucard from the manga series Hellsing

… oh, there is a scenario less appropriate than Superman in a fighting game.

Not a fan of turn based combat in the Yakuza series. I guess I would just watch gameplay for the story. Wish an option to change combat style be implemented.
