I wish they’d fix their deployment process. Releasing stuff then having to go back and fix it again can’t be helping their schedule, especially since they’re trying to release more stuff.
The new warbond, which took up dev team time, is not impressive/has a draw to bring people back.
I think the release pace could have been fine if they could release without new bugs every patch, address the existing bugs, and stop squeezing fun out with the balancing they’ve done. As is getting a nerfed liberator and being told the final versions of the guns is coming isnt a draw.
Personally reading the balance guys thoughts on the game, its a wonder the game was fun at any point. I’m not sure his vision but things like not even realizing how people would use the eruptor for its aoe damage is confusing.
Yea I’m confused, the article seems to waver between it was confusing to good, but also it misses the point of why the writer likes pop tarts so it’s not good?
“That’s a nice feeling. *Unfrosted *isn’t about that feeling. It’s about the product […] It takes whatever pleasure that can be derived from a Pop-Tart, and chokes on it”
What did the crossbow do to deserve nerfs? I don’t think I’ve ever seen someone use it, I was underwhelmed with it and it got beat down.
I read it’s because to vault you need to press space, but if you’re already sprinting it auto vaults. Seems accurate, if I “walk up” it doesn’t vault.
Still really annoying, but at least I know why.
Great review and info, I wonder how it’ll hold up once sharpened.
Like they wrote their own platform to automate front end automation? Thats… a choice
Couldn’t agree with this more. First few seasons they find their footing, but when they do they have some of the most incredible story lines and pay offs. It has become my favorite.
If you’re really struggling you can probably watch the episodes rated 7.0+ on IMDb in seasons 1 and 2 and still get a lot of what’s happening in season 3 and later, but you’ll definitely miss some backstory. Deep space nine being stationary generally did a good job with continuing characters and stories over time imo.
Our best hope for peace… it failed. shivers so good
Neat! With a workshop like that is it your job too or does it remain hobby/side pursuit.
I know a few people who have setup workspace for fishing and fishing related thing (lures, rods, etc) but still do it on the side.
Very much so, they have become a status symbol for some people.
They used to be incredibly well made, I believe they still are but the draw for many people is the name and known high price tag.
Yea, I think if they were offered severance as part of dismissal/layoff and it had a non compete they could lose that. Beyond that, it doesn’t hold much water in CA for the employees.
👏 bravo, this is fantastic!
My first run I made the sword and I regretted it. Armors are pretty good picks, I didn’t realize the shield was so good. I didn’t really use them this last run, but something to think about for my next one…
On one hand it’s a pretty common acronym in consulting-businees work. But on the other you’d think Wired, as a general tech publication, would want to take the two sentence to explain what it is and how it’s generally used.
It could be a pretty big value to remove humans in this step. A lot of times the rfp contents are known-ish anyway. You’re a tech dev firm, and someone wants a proposal for building an app in a framework you know, you already have language probably you’ve used. In theory this is a great application of AI to speed up the process of building this. The request is “hey we need these things and want this and this”. A consumer facing business might present this information as a FAQ or custom order process anyway, so automating an rfp could be good since it speeds things along.
In practice, who knows. If it isn’t accurate, if it takes longer to edit than just write from scratch, then that would suck. It’ll likely be another way to “reduce headcount” cause of “efficiencies” regardless of how good it is. I doubt this changes anything for most sales executives job status, for people who work in those departments that support those execs though, probably not good
In my game I regret taking shovel on Tav. Because I can’t have scratch and shovel out at the same time, and scratch is a good boy so… sorry shovel, you’re riding the bench this playthrough
Could be trying to fix/save shovel?
It would definitely be easier to explain why Wyll has shovel though.
Yea the only thing that didn’t satisfy me with the self replicating is the “they can just… keep replacing themselves? Man replicators really are broken” and how fast is this replication? Like if the dominion wanted to send 1,000 ships through and it could only take out 5-10 before exhausting why not just send the ships through.
But if the mines were phased and could detonate when the big ships are through, or even inside the big ships, they’d think twice. Again, just weird head canon I had to explain the minefields effectiveness in the show haha
I know it wasn’t, but in my head I always figured this was the cloak of the cloaked minefield in front of the wormhole. Then the dominion couldn’t just fire a torpedo and blow up the grid. That made the minefield make more sense to me.
At enterprise scale I can see a contract for being able to renew your support contract. Aka for us to implement this, we expect you to support it but we aren’t going to pay you up front in case it doesn’t pan out or we drop the project.
