dan1101,

Yep if US automakers won’t offer affordable EVs then others will.

dan1101,

The world would look a lot better today if this wasn’t so prevalent.

dan1101,

Starfield has a lot of good aspects, but also some bone-headed gameplay and content decisions. I had a lot of fun with it for a few weeks and will come back to it if/when it gets to a better state.

dan1101,

Honestly no idea why they didn’t just do that to begin with.

dan1101,

Yeah and it sucks. Biden to me is ok, but this single issue could really hurt him.

dan1101,

In many games with too much gear I just use the same gear and sell all pickups until I start dying, then I upgrade. Repeat as necessary.

dan1101,

If anyone creates accounts for this BS at least use fake information. Write the fake info down in case you need it in the future. But they have no way to know it’s fake.

dan1101,

I’ve played X4 a lot but it’s been a while. Travel mode should be Shift-F1, wait for it to spin up and after 5-10 seconds you should be going thousands of meters per second.

How fast a ship accelerates should depend on the ship, you can view the specs for whatever ship you’re flying. Same with top speed and travel speed. At wharfs and repair depots you can swap out different engines and such for different stats.

Salvagable items should be shown by little squares with a / through them on the map. IIRC you go near them and hold O to pull them in. You can also command AI ships to do the same. Keep in mind you may pull in contraband so be careful.

Each person (player and AI) has a personal inventory that holds small items and then each ship has a cargo hold as well. The difference can be confusing sometimes. If you have asked an AI ship to collect drops you will need to interact with the pilot and tell them to give you their inventory. Those items can be sold at the shops on various stations.

Boost and shield both share the same energy pool. This is a big gotcha, if you boost then you lose shields.

There is a lot to learn in X4 but there is no other game like it. At first you will have to do missions and buy/sell/mine to make money. In the long run what you should be aiming for is building a moneymaking empire of AI-piloted miners, traders, and/or stations.

Watch Captain Collins on YouTube, he has put out lots of good videos on how things are done.

The official forums and Reddit X4Foundations subreddit are good too.

dan1101,

Only if they are a certain height.

dan1101,

A Star Wars game that is a mix of Minecraft, Elite Dangerous, and X4. Elite Dangerous flight model and galaxy. X4 fleet management and modability. Minecraft type planets but with buildable vehicles. And a dynamic event, economy, and faction system. A big galaxy size sandbox with 4X elements.

dan1101,

Maybe GOG, being DRM free, has better terms from publishers.

dan1101,

I hear it’s not so much of a revolution as continuing the current administration.

dan1101,

Steam Deck is over 2 years old now and still works great. If Valve wanted to release a new version I’m sure it would compare favorably to this new chip.

dan1101,

He’s gonna get Mexico back on that wall for real this time.

dan1101,

I subscribed to Game Pass for a year or so. It was a good value but it got to the point where there were just too many games and not enough time to play them. I kept subscribing for the $1 per month trick, but once that ended I canceled.

When Manor Lords came out in early access I found a good deal for a month of Game Pass, that just expired.

dan1101,

I’m not so sure Walmart sells guns any more. They don’t in my area and I live in a very gun friendly area. They just seem to sell air rifles and hunting accessories.

dan1101,

Fuck yeah bro

dan1101,

Hate to say it but almost everyone has a number. Hopefully Valve’s number is more than anyone would offer.

dan1101,

It’s a love affair. Mainly Jesus and my poop.

dan1101,

I like the idea of these games but the execution was way way more complicated than it needed to be.

dan1101,

Not a smart comment to make Biden.

dan1101,

Same with the cool little adventure game Veloren.

dan1101,

It’s $9 for the standard Game Pass, and was $1 a month until they stopped that last year sometime.

Big Video Game Publishers Like Microsoft Are Paving Their Own Path To Irrelevance - Aftermath (aftermath.site)

In recent times, triple-A publishers have repeatedly had their lunch eaten — at least, in terms of mindshare — by more creatively nimble indies. Lethal Companywas last holiday season’s breakout hit, andPalworld followed not long after. https://aftermath.site/the-nerve-of-balatro-for-being-this-goodand...

dan1101,

It’s like they don’t consider Game Pass plays as the game being successful/profitable. They need to reconsider all that.

dan1101,

Striker never bent my Wookie, and for that I am grateful.

dan1101,

Yeah did someone just run or interpret reports incorrectly? If a person subscribes to Game Pass and plays Hi Fi Rush for X months, I’d consider that a sale.

dan1101,

Just the fact that they played some minimum amount should tell them the game contributed to the subscriber’s enjoyment of Game Pass. Otherwise if they are both selling a game and giving it to Game Pass subscribers for free I’m not sure what they are expecting. Can’t have your cake and eat it too, but I’m sure they would like that.

Maybe they are hoping that Game Pass is like extended demos and will lead to more game sales. But there are too many new games all the time for most to hold my interest.

dan1101,

Absolutely agree, just recently instead of buying Manor Lords I just found a good deal on a month of Game Pass. I played it as much as I wanted (for now) for less than $10.

dan1101,

It also doesn’t help that they changed math and you now need an entire sheet of paper for each problem.

dan1101,

What does a PSN account involve? Just an email and password, maybe a handle/nickname?

I assume it needs no credit card or payment.

If all that is true a PSN account is annoying but doesn’t seem so bad.

dan1101,

If all that is required is an email address and password I could live with giving Sony a special email address and unique password, I don’t see where I have a privacy or security risk there. Annoying, but it’s a lot better than another launcher or something. ETA: It asks for birthdate, definitely don’t give them your real birthdate but give them something close. I have a standard fake that I use.

dan1101,

I would definitely be annoyed but have had to create an account for other games too. Give them an email that isn’t your primary email and a unique password, I don’t see where there is any risk after that.

dan1101,

They might verify the email. But if you’re that worried about Sony having your email you can just make a unique one for them. You don’t have to give them your primary email.

dan1101,

Yes I’ve been interested in a few EGS exclusives but by the time they are available on Steam I don’t care about them any more.

dan1101,

Insurance companies would love to have it.

dan1101,

Good, hopefully that will spread to other countries as well.

dan1101,

Check out Easy Red 2, it’s like old-school Battlefield 1942, has good bots, and there can be up to 100 in a match I believe. On sale on Steam right now.

dan1101,

It’s optional unless enough people don’t use it. Then it will probably become mandatory.

dan1101,

Hold on to 16 as long as you can

dan1101,

Let’s not be dramatic, it’s per average day. Some days it isn’t 2 million.

dan1101,

Well that’s good but is he going to run his own massive video distribution network for free?

dan1101,

Better make sure the generic hot woman doesn’t resemble anyone real though.

dan1101,

They didn’t lose my trust but also I can see their bias regularly. Their bias is usually on the side of human decency but sometimes they are rather preachy about it n

dan1101,

Is he now going to sue the judge for defamation?

dan1101,

With all the hardware released over the years I’m surprised this sort of thing doesn’t happen more often.

dan1101,

Used to, now if I have a CD I just rip to MP3.

dan1101,

How about coming up with new ideas? You have the money, staff, and technology to make amazing games with new gameplay ideas instead of just redoing old ones.

dan1101,

First rule, everybody stay home except essential workers.
