Three years after its release, Star Trek: Resurgence is about to be delisted for good by Malix in c/pcgaming@lemmy.ca

[-] Malix@sopuli.xyz 5 points 3 days ago

huh. I do kinda like this kind of story/telltalesque games and I can't say I had ever even heard about this one. Though admittedly I'm only a "surface-level trekkie".

Either way, kinda bummer to see it go.

Child labour with 10 years of experience, 'AI-native' accepting 250k lines of Cursor code by Malix in c/programmerhumor@lemmy.ml

now ask them to maintain the 250k lines, probably fine for rew more commits, but after that? Oh look, they left the company for the next ai-nonsense-startup.

Big Rigs: Over the Road Racing -game releasing on steam? What? Why? (store.steampowered.com)

submitted 1 year ago by Malix@sopuli.xyz to c/pcgaming@lemmy.world

For the uninitiated: it's a 2003 racing game which became more or less a meme, because every possible feature of the game just doesn't work.

I kinda feel the game is going to be released just because of the meme-status, so that people would notice the publisher's other games.

Either way, I appreciate making the game available, if just for laughs.

I'm ok with timezones, but the guy who invented daylight savings time I'd slap to all the way to the sun

"If you decapitate Karlach before having spoken to her and then resurrect her, she'll no longer spend the rest of the game headless."

Man, some interactions in this game are wild.

After a naked Chun Li scandalised a fighting game tournament, Capcom sounds the alarm about PC game modding: 'There are a number of mods that are offensive to public order and morals' by Malix in c/pcgaming@lemmy.world

[-] Malix@sopuli.xyz 90 points 2 years ago

well, I do understand that in tournaments the games shouldn't be modded.

Otherwise: let players do what ever they please.

Capitan's timed automobile aquisitions are kinda, extremely tight? (sopuli.xyz)

submitted 2 years ago by Malix@sopuli.xyz to c/cyberpunk2077@lemmy.world

So, done several of this carjacking missions now, when they're timed, I usually get within like 200-300m away from the target until time runs out, even if I've literally leaned on the pedal and had straight road with next to no traffic on it.

I can only assume there are more optimal ways to get to the destination than what the "gps routing" is giving me, unless I just plain old need to "gid gud".

Give it to me straight, are these just brutally tight timewise or do I just plain suck?

I wouldn't usually care for optional things, but El capitan berating me each time is getting old.

So what's the deal with upgrading cyberware and stats going down? (sopuli.xyz)

submitted 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago) by Malix@sopuli.xyz to c/cyberpunk2077@lemmy.world

I have several pieces of cyberware, which when upgraded from tier 5 to 5+, basically all the ... tertiary? stats (the blue ones at the bottom of the item card) go down.

While it is true that the main feature of the cyberware piece does USUALLY get marginally better, it seems weird that the other stats go down?

But sometimes it seems to turn worse too, for example Deep-field Visual Interface, got a tier 5 version of it:

Crit Chance increases the further you are from the enemy (max. 95% at 90 meters)
Cool Attuned: +1% Crit. Damage per Attribute Point

But when upgraded to tier 5+, the first stat becomes (edit: found a screenshot for this: https://i.imgur.com/CzLAWlY.png)

Crit Chance increases the further you are from the enemy (max. 92% at 95 meters)

which to me feels just worse, unless I'm completely missing something here. Lower max cc at longer range? Wut?

What's the dealio? Does the upgrade view not take into account some perks I've selected or something? Or taking them into account wrongly/partially/derp?

It feels weird to not upgrade my gear because the higher tier item is just worse and I'm swimming in crafting materials.

but what about programmers with problems hearing? An alternative of webcam video with sign language, pantomime and subtitles is needed!

edit: OOH! Use AI to generate the sign language videos. Could be wild, considering how good AI is at drawing hands.
