doublejay1999, (edited ) w Valve Says Counter-Strike 2 for macOS Not Happening Because There Aren't Enough Players on Mac to Justify It
@doublejay1999@lemmy.world avatar

Not enough people are playing my 20 year old game ?

thedirtyknapkin,

hey man, this is clearly a brand new game. have you seen the bugs?

doublejay1999,
@doublejay1999@lemmy.world avatar

I made an edit .

Point being, is it really fair to say not enough mac users are playing CSGO when it’s 10 years old and based on a game 10 years older than that ?

lowleveldata,

Ya? What does the age of the game have to do with the current measurements?

Vilian,

wasn’t cs:go like always on top10 most playable games of all steam?

1984, (edited ) w Counter-Strike 2 has a lower rating than any other Valve game, ever
@1984@lemmy.today avatar

I get so annoyed with the game. Constant stuttering and lagging.

And it’s completely wrong of them to merge the CS2 reviews into the cs go reviews and remove cs go. Not sure who thought that was a good idea.

whereBeWaldo,

Wait did they really merge the cs1 (meaning the game released in 2000) reviews or do you mean the csgo by cs1?

1984,
@1984@lemmy.today avatar

Ah sorry. They merged cs go reviews into cs 2.

And they removed cs go so it’s not possible to play it anymore. We are all forced to play cs 2 or nothing now. In my case, I can’t play since it’s so laggy so I just lost a game I paid for and had 1000 hours in.

whereBeWaldo,

Oh I see, I personally haven’t had any performance issues and think the game looks gorgeous right now but to be honest I only played CS2 for like an hour and haven’t been playing csgo since they removed Iris from the competitive matchmaking. So I am not really the best judge for the game’s quality.

Merging reviews is really dubious though, I can kinda understand it as they replaced csgo’s store page with CS2’s but adding CS2 as a seperate game and adding it to the libraries of csgo owners would’ve been the better solution imo. I guess they didn’t want to bother with making csgo inventory tab compatible with the cs2 game.

Rin,

are you on Linux? performance is absurdly bad on Linux…

Astroturfed, w Classic Fallout fans might enjoy Space Wreck, which launches out of early access today

I replay fallout 2 still occasionally. This could be fun.

darcmage, w Rocket League Removing Player-to-Player Trading in December

This seems like it will kill the sales of rocket league credits in the grey market.

JohnWorks, w New look for PS5 console this holiday season

Honestly I like the look of the consoles however the pricing is incredibly stupid imo. 450 for diskless is pointless when the disked model is 500. 50$ doesn’t seem like much of an incentive to save by going diskless. The better option would’ve been to charge 400 for diskless and then 100 for the drive rather than 80.

Kolanaki, w Star Trek: Infinite | Your First Day
!deleted6508 avatar

I already mod the hell out of Stellaris to have all the cool Star Trek races (at least, the portraits and styles and ships to create them with the already robust civ creation system) and treat it like a Star Trek 4X, so I don’t know if I want to really get this or not.

bionicjoey,

As far as I’m concerned, it’s just going to be a Stellaris mod with more targeted flavour and a preset starting position, like CK or various other PDX games. I see this as an absolute win. It’s not like it will invalidate Stellaris, it’s building upon it.

atlasraven31,

Do you think space fans that already own Stellaris will also buy ST:I ?

bionicjoey,

I mean… I’m gonna. And I just started watching ST this year.

ivanafterall, w New look for PS5 console this holiday season

They really mixed it up.

kaitco,

The new PS5 has been reduced in volume by more than 30%, and weight by 18% and 24% compared to the previous models. There are four separate cover panels, with the top portion in a glossy look, while the bottom remains in matte.

Hm…I mean, I’m not sure I’d call it a “new look”, but I suppose there are some changes.

Potatos_are_not_friends, w Activision Blizzard Shares Xbox Game Pass Plans, Leaves Door Open for Diablo IV on Game Pass in 2024

As a person who bought Diablo 4 for full price, I highly recommend everyone wait until the gamepass version.

Season 2 updates look great.

But I like to remind everyone that Diablo 3 only got “fixed” after the necro expansion and a few years of updates.

Appoxo, w Season 5: Reckoning Trailer | Halo Infinite
@Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com avatar

Looked neat. I will take another look on reveal.

Poutinetown, w Torn Away — Official Launch Trailer

The survival-based mechanism somewhat reminds me of This war of mine, though it seems to differ a lot in terms of storyline/graphics.

I think such games are very valuable ways to better understand the consequences of wars, which is especially relevant in the past few years.

remotelove, w Activision Blizzard do not have plans to put Modern Warfare III or Diablo IV into Game Pass this year but once the deal closes they expect to start working with Xbox and add the games to Games Pass
@remotelove@lemmy.ca avatar

For someone who doesn’t play consoles, what does that mean? A yearly subscription or something?

cm0002,

Game pass is monthly or yearly, there’s a PC only tier as well as the Ultimate tier which includes both PC and consoles as well as xCloud

remotelove,
@remotelove@lemmy.ca avatar

Thanks. That’s gross.

TrustedChimp,

Aside from the whole not owning games things, it’s actually great you get well over 100 games for xbox and well over 100 more games for pc (with ultimate) including xbox game studios games from the day they release for like 20 bucks a month and if you decide you want to own a game that’s on gamepass digitally you get a discount on the purchase price

remotelove,
@remotelove@lemmy.ca avatar

Ok, that sounds better. I really don’t play that many games so as long as I still have the option to straight-up buy the ones I do play, that is cool.

Rynelan,

Yes then it’s not for you. Game pass is more for the active players that play a lot of games. If you at least play and finish a game each month, even each 2 months then it’s simply cheaper to have Game Pass instead of buying the games (if you’re going to play new AAA on release day)

cm0002,

It’s a pretty good value if you play at least 1 AAA title every 3 months or 1 indie game a month. I’ve tried games I never would have bought (Some I didn’t like and I liked game pass even more for it, because now I’m not out 20-60+$ or having to research every game or make sure I play within refund limits) and it’s cratered my desire to sail the Gaming seas.

It’s kinda like the good days of Netflix, but for games, I’d get in and enjoy it while it lasts because we all know where it’ll end up eventually…

theskyisfalling,

It would be good if gamepass didn’t disrespect your HDD by creating directories that cannot be got rid of except by reformatting the entire fucking drive. There is no reason for it to do that -_-

Potatos_are_not_friends,

Not sure why you’re being downvoted.

Gamepass really abuses a bunch of “window features” to drm their games. On steam: folders and games, modding is easy, moving saves to GOG/Epic/etc is easy. In gamepass, it’s a nightmare.

If you’re lucky, there are 10-20 step tutorials of how to move save games from steam to gamepass and vice versa.

cm0002,

I’ve gotten permissions wrestled away from Windows for that folder, I just haven’t figured out how to get the entire Windows Store/Default Apps put back together again lmfaooo

wildginger,

If you cant afford games, its great.

You pay ~$60 for the year, if memory serves. Then you get to play any game on the service for free.

Any game you really liked, you can buy to add to your library whenever. But you dont feel bad about trying a game you arent sure you would enjoy, and you can also just burn an hour playing a game you know you would hate, just for shits and giggles.

Honestly its the smartest thing xbox has done in a while.

Potatos_are_not_friends,

It’s a subscription service like Netflix or Hulu.

Unfortunately also games rotate because of licensing deals. Which is why Microsoft is buying studios, to reduce licensing deals since they “own” the property.

For anyone who prefers DRM-free, it’s also on GOG: www.gog.com/game/the_thaumaturge

karpintero, w [GameMill Entertainment] Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl 2 - Official Angry Beavers Spotlight

Silent wind of doom is a nice callback. A Muscular Beaver attack would’ve been funny too

glimse, w Payday 2 has three times the Payday 3 players right now

More power to you if you like it but man I cannot imagine wanting to play a game like this with strangers

dbtonez, w Weekly what have you been playing discussion - week of October, 9, 2023

fell back into The Division 2 and started Vermintide 2. always playing Diablo 2. playing Baldur’s Gate with a friend once a week. trying to get myself to go back to ARMORED CORE, but i just keep getting my buns handed back to me XD

bappity,
@bappity@lemmy.world avatar

have been meaning to get into baldurs gate! I’ve got 4 other friends that I played DnD with a while back and it was hilarious. from what I’ve seen of it BG3 would be amazing to play as a group

dbtonez,

i’d highly recommend it. it’s still a lot of fun solo, but playing it with my friend has been a treat. sometimes we make a decision for the laughs, other times we get into semi-serious debates about what to do, where to go… and it’s fun seeing how different our co-op playthrough is from our solo playthroughs.
