Sadly too true. Just tried a quick round, ended up getting stuck in the debrief screen where the ship is supposed to fly to the cruiser and had to Alt F4 out of the game. These kind of issues get quite tiresome.

Tried some more and sadly had a bunch of people crashed in my lobby a couple of times, and I crashed one game too. Later I started the game and I got logged out “due to inactivity” while on my ship for barely 30 seconds checking out a few items lmao

It’s so annoying how bigs repeatedly happen, including stuff that’s been fixed before, after every game update.

I think it was a weak spot, just even weaker now lol

People celebrating and encouraging this shit are disgusting human beings.

Possibly worth checking back in, but frankly I think I’ll still rather wait until they drop new content like the Illuminate.

Also wouldn’t be surprised if a bunch of new issues will pop up now, as is tradition with Helldivers game updates.

Lol, could’ve been some wild fan theory. I guess it’s just a weird scene at the end of TROS that feels like they could’ve left out.

Well yeah today you learned because today it was added lol

That’s the first time I’m hearing about it. I guess this was in some visual dictionary, behind the scenes or a novel then?

I thought the Lando movie would involve old Lando (Billy Dee) after TROS, since they heavily implied at the end of TROS that he and the black girl (can’t remember her name at all) were going to look for something.

But I’m good with Glover playing another major Lando role, he absolutely nailed it in Solo.

Not sure why companies try to push mobile games like that so fucking hard. Just because everyone has a phone doesn’t mean everyone wants to play games on them.

Also doesn’t help that practically all mobile games like that are created with the intention to focus on microtransactions and grindy paywalled and timegated content.

Can’t say anything of value was lost with sacking studios/devs for this kind of crap. It would only be better if it were the higher-ups coming up with this garbage for once.

They also deleted all my progress at some point because apparently I forgot to do some kind of transfer back when they merged with Blizzard or something. Maybe that’s partially my fault but I could never recall that I was informed to do so, and I hadn’t played in a long time.

I tried to get back into the game a while ago, but the story is such an incredible mess and hardly makes any sense being thrown from one place to another with very little information, as a new or returning player you’d have no clue where to go and what to do and what is actual new and relevant content and not. It’s incredibly difficult to get a grasp of the game if you haven’t been keeping up.

That’s just a raccoon in a spandex. You can’t fool me!

I got that reference!

(Literally the only Swift song I know)

I really hope they make a sequel game, or maybe a similar game based on a different character that would allow for a bit of a wider range of gameplay. But I wouldn’t mind if they kept going with Kay, she’s a likeable protagonist to me and I just love Nix.

Have to say I ran into very few bugs and I wrapped up the main story and loads of extras after about 45 hours. Funnily I ran into only one bug after finishing the main story, getting stuck in ingame cutscene-camera that prevented me from doing anything else, including being able to reload the game lol.

There’s definitely been some minor goofy and janky stuff throughout the game, but nothing that ended up gamebreaking. I think the most un-finished part of the game that I wish they’d fixed up before launch is the lipsync issues. It just looks so bad in some scenes and takes away from the otherwise great immersive experience.

I have zero interest in paying for lootboxes or other gambling crap paid with real money in games.

But games like Lost Ark were banned in The Netherlands and it took me a while to figure out why it didn’t show in my Steam store.

I wish there were other means instead of just outright banning games from stores (like Diablo Immortal for mobile also isn’t available in The Netherlands). It didn’t take me much to get around the ban and install Lost Ark anyway, so I figured if I can do that, then what’s stopping people with gambling problems from doing the same as well.

Also it seems wildly inconsistent when games are and aren’t allowed for us to download. Why should I be limited to the regulated games accessible because of other people’s gambling addictions? Feels like half the Steam library could be Thanos-snapped if it were just for lootboxes and transactions being present in games.

The headline screams ragebait from someone who doesn’t even play the game.

Outlaws doesn’t really feel like either.

It has elements like both, but it doesn’t do exploration towers that unlock areas. It feels more like a third option between the two, which makes most sense because it comes from the devs that did both The Division and Avatar.

I enjoyed Outlaws open world gameplay, even though it doesn’t bring anything new to the table. It was still an enjoyable experience that felt like discovering the worlds on your own, instead of being guided and follow a checklist of stuff to do, despite having a list to get upgrades and do story and missions. It felt a bit more like Rockstar style open-world, where you just go about your business and run into encounters, instead of going from A to B all the time.

It was a fun game for a few hours, but my god it was so fucking overrated. They had a lucky shot hitting the timing on the early access since Pokemon was just another terrible lazy cashgrab job, so practically anything that did even remotely better would get praised into oblivion.

And like 4 months later only 1% of the amount of peak players still remains. I don’t think they’ll ever get close to that peak again.

If a CEO of a company don’t even know what to do you know the product is doomed to fail. They should’ve had this kind of stuff figured out way at early access launch, or even before that already.

It isn’t the original creator? I saw some advertising elsewhere that heavily implied that it was the same guy.

If it’s just some company trying to leech of the success from over a decade ago, including microtransactions, that’s beyond pathetic.

I’ll give you the grenade pistol hasn’t left my side since I got it, just because it’s too good to close spawners.

But I had always been using the slugger as primary, it worked great on bots and bugs. Combined with the laser backpack against bugs I rarely ever needed something else except for heavies.
