I mean, from what I can see, even at the highest levels it fucks around with uber tracking. The solemn vow is a "must-run" tier weapon, in the same vein as the crossbow and escape plan. The thing about uber tracking is that it assumes your opponent is building properly. With the solemn vow, you no longer have to worry about that variable. You now should always know if you have ad, even, or disad. Sure, the meds need to have line of sight on each other, but that happens organically often enough that it will be a factor. I see us having some fucking weirdo situations where we have teams trying to make room for their med to peek, trying to make sure they still have ad before pushing.

I also think it's unfortunate that teams will also no longer make the mistake of pushing when they think they have ad, but don't, since the other team built more efficiently. In my brain, changing the game so that teams no longer make mistakes like that is going to contribute to more stalemates.

Why the fuck not? Isn't it just bug fixes? Stuff like rockets through teammates, fine, but fixing ramp bugs and sticky det delay should be a huge priority

fall damage too, unless we'd like to reintroduce crits and random spread for "testing purposes"

Valve hears ya
Valve dont care

Alyx is not HL3. Smh.

My understanding is that the code was leaked out of valve years ago, but the people it was leaked to had been able to keep it to themselves until now.

he tried turning it off for about 10 seconds at one point and it didnt work out tbf

im legit confused, how on earth could chatlogs from 3-4 years ago possibly incriminate anyone for something that JUST happened? like even if it verifies that tyler had access to the code, how tf you just gonna assume that literally no one else has gotten access in the intervening years

just because theres a hole in the dam doesnt mean youre blameless when you break it all the way open

There are plenty of people who find ways to bury their heads in the sand despite (and sometimes by using) the internet

But yes, the state of the world, and my country in particular also makes me angry

if we'd legalized pot decades ago after it was made clear it wasnt harmful, we wouldnt have such an overcrowded prison system that is unable to handle outbreaks like this.

but no, instead, fuck black people, how dare they enjoy themselves! our government perpetrated a bunch of bullshit about a harmless drug so that we can throw millions of people in cells so that privately run prisons can make ludicrous amounts of money off of taxpayers. gotta make sure we fuck over as many people as possible!

for real, this is by design, and if any politician who is still okay with privately owned prisons is upset about this, its because theyre worried that with so many prisoners dying it'll be harder to justify funneling as much money towards those prisons. psychopathic liars who deserve prison themselves.

god bless america everyone!

you guys are all idiots. why put all the effort into a promod when we can just make healing scouts a bannable offense

I heard its been happening for months in europe, i think its a more recent thing of the last few weeks for na. On the bright side community servers are booming

well thats good but most of the game is still bs that doesnt at all reflect a decade+ of development

and if thats the case why tf was it even implemented that i can ask a villager where the landowner is

battle ai is still dumb as rocks
troop command system is exactly the same
trading ui is pointlessly cluttered (actually most of the ui is really poor imo)
the tutorial missions were insanely easy, but then the 2 i got post tutorial involved pitting the 6 peasant recruits i was able to recruit against 20+ enemies, so theres a stupid amount of just chasing around little baby parties. and frequently, even the villages with units available to recruit wont let you do so because they dont like you, despite not knowing you.

and worst of all, the stupid thing has to load before doing ANYTHING. arena? gotta load in. battles? you best believe thats a big loading screen. wanna trade? load. wanna just talk to a fuckin guy? thats a loadin. wanna talk to another guy in the same village without needing to go on a scavenger hunt? fuck you idiot, load back into the campaign map, and then load into the village again. or, if you get lucky one of the villagers might know where the guy is, and you can very slowly walk behind the villager, assuming he doesnt get lost along the way.

i have 2 hours of playtime, and encountered more than my fair share of bugs, too. holy FUCK. stock warband is better, and modded, it's lightyears beyond this bullshit. only refund request ive ever made, and it was a no brainer.

i just spent 5 mins googling joe biden and all i could find is a 20 second clip of him saying he doesnt want to debate any more. sander's youtube channel has clips of him speaking and debating and doing his fucking job. bidens just has a bunch of ads.

i cant fucking believe this is the guy we're going with. im so disappointed in our electorate.

if everyone on the team had terminal cancer thatd be pretty heavy tho namsayin
