How many hours a week do you play?

Recently I’ve started to slow down due to other obligations this last week, it used to be around 35-42 hours a week though because i didn’t have much going on

sir_pronoun, do games w Day 40 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots (Jedi Fallen Order)

But there’s no strife to succeed in academic or romantic life despite physical limitations depicted in this game :(

You know which game could fill that narrative hole? It’s free to download, even :)

sir_pronoun,

I’ve been commenting under his posts to play this insane game for a while

PunchingWood, do games w Day 40 of posting a Daily Screenshot from the games I’ve been playing until I forget to post Screenshots (Jedi Fallen Order)

I remember 100% completing Zeffo, what an absolute hellhole to navigate lol

Should definitely go for Survivor once you finished FO, it’s such a great sequel, without the insane mazes.

How is the PC performance now? I heard it was pretty unplayable for a while so never got round to picking it up

PunchingWood,

I played it on PS5 back when it came out, which was rough but eventually playable enough to deal with it.

There have been a bunch of performance updates since then but I don’t know how much it improved on PC. I think it’s still quite a demanding game.

caut_R,

With a 3080 it ran fine at 4k, I capped FPS to 75 which it held most of the time. „Survivor“ (the latest entry in the series) is plagued by performance issues. Fallen Order does have traversel and shader stutter though IIRC.

@Toribor@corndog.social avatar

Performance was ‘okay’ on my RTX2080 but I had to return it because the EA launcher was breaking steam controller input which made it unplayable.

caut_R,

The planet with the zombies and especially anything related to the weird underground city on it was worse IMO

If you didn‘t already know what path to take to end up in the specific spot in said city that you needed to go to, you were in for a ride lol

Also backtracking through the swamp area

I do remember having trouble finding specific exploration percentages in Zeffo as well though

I‘m starting to look forward to your post everyday! Very fun! Thank you :)

GeneralEmergency, do gaming w When will they learn? When will they learn, that their actions have consequences?

Is this Deadlock?

MeDuViNoX,
@MeDuViNoX@sh.itjust.works avatar

It’s Concord, but I wonder if it could apply to Deadlock after the honeymoon phase wears off?

I never really play this genre anyway. 🤷🏻

Spiralvortexisalie, do gaming w When will they learn? When will they learn, that their actions have consequences?

For those out the loop (probably everyone since no one plays this game it seems) this is Concord by Sony, which after years of dev hell launched two days ago as an online game, but has yet to break 700 players online at a time SteamDB Source. In contrast the four year old, often called abandoned, Red Dead Online has more players during off-peak SteamDB Source

rtxn,

In contrast, the super secret Deadlock has 36k players at this time, with a 64k all-time peak, in the same week that Wukong was released. Something tells me this super secret totally restricted early access might have been a 4D chess marketing move.

Got an invite to the playtest from a friend recently.

I should not have accepted it. This game is going to consume my soul

I’ve been busy travelling but somehow already reached 30+ hours playtime… and still only tried a few heroes. redacted is my fave thus far, I like how redacted is redacted.

RandomWalker,

They lifted the info embargo! You can talk about it now! I’m having an amazing time with Abrams except when I play teams that know how to parry. Laning can be tricky at first, but his regen is so good you can somewhat ignore the other hero and focus on last hitting.

Randomocity,

Any chance I could get an invite. I’ve been wanting to give it a try.

I like how they say “It’s redactin time” and then redacts all over them.

poke,

I just want to provide a contrasting opinion to the other response here. I and a few of my friends have tried it and we just aren’t ready to dedicate way too much time to learning a game that seems to want to be almost as complex as DOTA2. So many characters, map mechanics, and item builds to adapt to the situation (this one in particular) - its just too much. Like, pick two and maybe I’d find it worth my time to start learning, but the complexity of all 3 make the game too daunting.

glimse,

That’s where I’m at with it. I can’t get into a game knowing I don’t have the energy to get good at playing…

Spiralvortexisalie,
Karyoplasma,

They did the same with Dota 2. If you wanted a key, you could just ask Valve directly and get one (if none of your friends had a spare), it was not an exclusive club house for the cool kids.

I don’t think it’s 4D-marketing chess, it’s more like people who’ve already shown enough interest to ask for an invite are more likely to leave feedback when they find something off with it.

@simple@lemmy.world avatar

For the record the devs said this game took eight years to make, and might’ve been pitched even earlier than that. I can’t imagine working on a project for a decade and releasing to… This.

LouNeko,

Red Dead 2 took 8 years to make. I bet my soul on that Concord was quickly thrown together in the last couple years by temp diversity hires and 3rd party contractors, or at least the version of Concord that we got now. I love that one of the devs said that “a lot of talented people worked on it”. If it really took them 8 years to make that is the oppsotite of talent. In 8 years I could probably get get a double masters in programming and game development and make a better game myself.

xep,

I strongly encourage you to try making a game to see what it's like, especially if it sounds like you might enjoy doing it.

rebelsimile,

I love how women and minorities get blamed for failures in industries they barely get to participate in. Get fucked super genius.

Therefore, Red Dead 2 was made with the opposite of talent

Please do ping me with the link to the game on Steam once it’s done 👍

beepnoise,

Genuinely thank you for the context.

So many times I read gaming news on forums such as this and reddit where the discussions just assume you know what people are talking about, and as a guy in his mid thirties who has completely disconnected from online gaming but is on the lookout for a good game or two, I would like at least some context!

@Cadeillac@lemmy.world avatar

As with a lot of people, the television series gave me the itch to play. I decided to give 76 a shot now that they had done a lot of updates. I really fucking enjoyed that game, even playing solo. It isn’t as good as the others, but it is now a decent Fallout game

It’s definitely way more fun when playing with friends, but i have fun playing solo even

How are you liking Fallout 76?

@MyNameIsAtticus@lemmy.world avatar

i picked it up on launch and was one of the few people the enjoyed it. after all the updates though i will say it is far better. I’m doing a Rifleman build and trying to do my first Scorch beast (after trying at my first attempt a few years ago solo and failing at the silo)

yokonzo, do trains w How do I learn a freight trains schedule?

Hey coding nerds, I know you’re nearby, do you think I’d be able to use tensorflow or something to identify an incoming train with this view?

Technoguyfication,

You could, but if this is taken from another window in the same building you’ll likely only get ~10 seconds of warning.

If you could put a couple cameras a mile or so down each direction on the track you could get an earlier warning system

yokonzo, (edited )

This is taken from my window, and I’m not sure how I feel about leaving expensive equipment out in a suburban area for anyone to pick up and run off with

Man. When will someone make a good singleplayer/coop Arma competitor?

truenekomancer,

To some degree that’s what STALKER is. Hopefully STALKER 2 will be good.

AlexWIWA,

I wish Squad had a campaign

trslim,

Squad has such fun gameplay and feels so good to play, it sucks that its only multiplayer. Squad on like an Altus sized map with map editor and a zues would be so freakin awesome.

AlexWIWA,

Squad mechanics in ARMA game modes is literally my dream game. I love Squad so much

DrBob, do trains w How do I learn a freight trains schedule?
@DrBob@lemmy.ca avatar

I don’t know what it’s like where you live, but as rule, who knows? There are scheduled trains which are notoriously unreliable, but also unscheduled trains. Basically whenever there is enough cargo to justify a train it gets put out on the tracks and they move it when they can. Caveat: this is for Canada and is largely based on info from some former neighbors who were conductors and brakemen.

My sympathy to your cats.

yokonzo, (edited )

So real shit they don’t track freight trains? That seems kind of inefficient if I’m honest.

Then again I’m not a train professional so what do I know

Album,
@Album@lemmy.ca avatar

Freight is definitely tracked but not necessarily scheduled in regular intervals. This is true for both trains and ships. Like it costs so much and the world isn’t always that consistent.

But yeah like cp/cn/CSX/ns/BNSF etc all know what’s on their lines and where.

However these lines are fully private unlike aviation so there is no requirement to publically provide any data.

For planes position data doesn’t even come from the airline but a govt mandated transponder that communicates on public frequency on the aircraft and private websites use a network of recieving radios donated or not spread across the world to provide the public with a service they also try to profit off of. This doesn’t exist for trains as far as I know. And I don’t think for ships either.

davel,
@davel@lemmy.ml avatar

Well that puts a wrinkle in my train heist.

DrBob,
@DrBob@lemmy.ca avatar

They track them, but they’re not all scheduled. If there is enough cargo there they put on a “special” and they will move it between the scheduled trains. Train scheduling and tracking is an art unto itself.

mondoman712, do trains w How do I learn a freight trains schedule?

There’s a facebook group for that line, perhaps they could help you: www.facebook.com/groups/upbelvideresub/

usrtrv, do trains w How do I learn a freight trains schedule?

There are groups out there that monitor train routes. And some publish to the Web.

In theory you could hook up an software defined radio and listen to train transponders yourself and give yourself a warning if one is nearby.
