I’ve had T-Mobile 5G internet for several years now, and no issues. I’d say I’ve had to reboot the router more than with Comcast. But our area has also gone through a lot of tower upgrades. I’m not a competitive FPS player, mainly playing MMOs and nothing unusual. Streaming content has been fine. I also work full time remote with an IT job, and that hasn’t been an issue either.
It’s going to depend on how good your local signal is. T-Mobile phones in my area work well, while they don’t work as well when I visit my parents in another state. So the 5G Internet will follow suit. If you don’t have T-Mobile phones then you’ll have to pay attention to friends or reviews in your local area.
I installed an external antenna for mine pointed directly at the nearest cell tower and it’s fine with multiple streams going. Before I did that it wasn’t very good. The annoying part is that there’s no access to settings in the router. I’m considering going to fiber for an extra $30/mo just because of the router issue.
I’m so happy we’re finally getting a handheld that’s genuinely portable! I watched a disassembly video and really appreciate that the battery isn’t glued down, too. And have you all seen gameplay videos? Ocarina of Time 3D at 7x native resolution looks about as close to those Unreal 5 Zelda tech demos as we’ll likely ever get.
I skipped the Nintendo Switch line, but I’d eventually pick the Thor up to replace my 3DS. (If I don’t hold out for an Ayn Freya 😅 .)
Does it have a HDMI port to connect to a TV? Since it’s Android, I suppose pairing a new controller would be easy, so stuff you emulate from home consoles can be played with 2-4 people
Maybe because there are still people who are not tired of Call of Duty, liked the predecessor and are still looking forward for a sequel and play it with their friends?
Oh wait, this isn’t even the newest CoD? Probably they just forgot to update the prices. Probably forgot it even exists because there is a new one.
They dont want people buying the old games, even their 15 year old ones are still full price on purpose. They want you in the latest game each year, exposed to all the predatory extra-transactions, then they want you to do that again the next year and the next and the next... the games are not priced like that because they "forgot", it's a business strategy.
So in theory.. you can not even play single-player campaign because of kernel level anti-cheat + internet connection. Even if Wine/Proton would allow you to start the game.
Not fully true. Yes a lot of games run on Windows.. But a lot of them also run on Linux, in some cases even Native, in other cases using Wine/Proton from Valve. See: https://www.protondb.com/
A lot of online pvp games do work under Linux as well. But then again.. AAA games are the most problematic.. because they just stuck, and get ignored by the devs/publishers. I'm looking at you EA!
To be fair that icon doesn’t mean much of anything cuz you can just force compatibility in Linux and use proton, you just gotta manually do that in properties.
This is probably windows only because of kernel level anticheat though so it probably still holds up.
Play Necesse or Abiotic Factor. Both just left early access recently and are great real games for good prices and aren’t stuffed with the modern AAA bloat
Edit: I posted this just before reading the last paragraph… Well, glad it’s taking off lol
It’s a bit more basebuildy than Terraria which I actually prefer as someone who enjoys rimworld. It’s pretty big on boss fights tho, but i usually leave that to my friends and focus on the base. It has a lot of polish and quality-of-life features. I’ve sunk about 140 hours into it so far but I’ll probably rack up a lot more than that. It isn’t very replayable and has a weak endgame loop, but it’s a very solid game.
This kind of thing is why I dont get excited for steam sales now. Oh, 50% off Recent AAA Game? Haha, yeah, half off the base price, but the entire game is DLC now and each of those is still full price, and there’s a dozen of them.
AAA is just cash grab, they haven't been good or innovative games for a long, long time now. They are very good at marketing to the masses though and they have the pricing tiers laid out perfectly to extract as much money from people as they can.
They start off with their massive price tag like $70-80, plus the deluxe editions for $100-120 for any suckers who want a fucking extra skin. Then after a couple months when sales slow down, they put it on sale for like 20% off, then a couple months more, its like 40% off and so on. DLC has kind of fallen off, as they get people stuck in the battle pass and cosmetic buying loop instead (people are crazy).
If a AAA game looks interesting to you at all, you are literally best just waiting a few months or more, it's a win-win, you either buy it it's actual value or you get the reviews that its a disgusting broken mess or was completely over-hyped (it's these last two 99% of the time).
Steam sales are for getting them older games a bit cheaper, good indie games are worth their price tag multiple times over honestly so unless you are tight on money, I'd support the developer regardless of sales.
I’ve always wondered what all the CoD or Battlefield games have that’s different between the versions? 😅 Because to me it’s just a bunch of people running around shooting each other in the exact same way. I can’t, at a glance, tell you which game or version it is, if I stumble upon someone playing it.
Same with the football, basketball, and American football games. Which version is it? Have the rules of the sport changed between years? 😂 Who knows!
On the other hand, I love survival crafting games, and with the indies you rarely tell them apart because they all look the same. 😂 So I shouldn’t speak.
I want a Call of Doody game where you're running around downtown of a major city looking for a public bathroom while prairie dogging a big old shit kind of like Far Cry 2's malaria mechanic.
