They'd just go to DOTA2 or possibly Deadlock or even Smite. There are buffers. Like different containment sites because keeping all the SCPs in one place would be really, really stupid.

[–] Evil_Shrubbery@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago

Smort, containment protocols probably grew over the years with each deadly containment breach they had.

The Concord episode of Secret Levels: Gone. Reduced to atoms.

I tried giving c2077 a fair chance, thrice despite who made it.
First time, I stopped shortly after the montage cause I found that speed running so much plot was silly.
Second time: cause the cars handlikg goes from wading through pudding to sometimes bouncing off of a wall to barely being able to drive a straight lone. Third time: Jonny. Just Jonny. Didn't like him.

Honestly cyberpunk has one of the worst handling mechanics I've seen in a game made by a big studio. Still though it is one of my favorite games after the improvements they did on the game.

That's just how cars handled in the(19)70's. The handling made me laugh because it's accurate!

I've found it's been fine on a controller but borderline unplayable on a keyboard

[–] lud@lemm.ee 3 points 1 day ago

I played at launch (and after of course) I can't recall that the driving was that bad on the keyboard. Maybe I'm just very used to driving with a keyboard but I didn't really have any complaints even if it wasn't exactly perfect.

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

I ended up driving around 5 mph with a keyboard because it was otherwise uncontrollable.

Doing just fine on mine. Takes getting used to and learning to let go at the right time so you don't over correct.

I tried it again a few days ago, the first time was last year.
The cars are nearly unusuable, today

tried that one actually, and it made it worse, it made the terrible handling consistent
and it shouldnt need a mod (no matter how old or new a game is) to fix a core mechanic
heck, its a cyberpunk game, driving should have been one of the first things to get right

[–] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yes, when I think "cyberpunk" the first thing that comes to mind is vehicle handling.

[–] Mandy@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 day ago

cars are an important part of the cyberpunk genre, vehicles in general, so yes, vehicle handling is very important in your open world cyberpunk game

[–] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

Your first point is kind of lame. Would you rather read a book? Spend 20 hours playing corporate file sorting? You want to start from a street rat with no identity at all?

Car handling takes finesse and getting used to it. You can't hammer the keys and hold them down.

Johnny is supposed to be an asshole in the beginning. He grows on you during the game, unless you like being a sellout.

League of Legends is a great game, and I’m tired of pretending it’s not. (Wild Rift is better though.)

[–] surewhynotlem@lemmy.world 16 points 1 day ago (2 children)

LoL is fine. The people are the problem

[–] SleepyPie@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago

I’m tired of this take too. Mute features help taper this - it cuts out the noise and allows you to focus on your own growth. But people’s erratic behaviour is what makes multiplayer games an interesting puzzle.

Conflict within a group is naturally painful due to the evolutionary pressures for humans, but as our brains have evolved so much to engage with this problem I think League is uniquely challenging for us. No other game can elicit the triumph of a close League comeback, even if teammates try to sabotage you due to their own egos from time to time. Winning games like this is even sweeter.

It’s sad that so many people actively warn others away from it. It’s genuinely great and I think the next generation of pvp enjoyers are missing out by avoiding League due to reputation. Just don’t go into it expecting perfectly fair competition or lobbies - focus on what you can improve and you’ll have fun.

The game creates the problem, which is the behavior of the people.

It also took them like, ten years to add a "turn off chat completely" option.
