Those people definitely exist, but for some reason they’re more well behaved than other communities. I think the lobby system helps a lot because the good players can self-select to avoid noob stomping.

If you do return, I highly recommend a mod called Mental Omega. It adds sub factions for yuri, a whole new faction, and has four new campaigns. At this point Mental Omega has more content than all of the 2.5d games combined.

A lot of medium skill people still play, surprisingly. I’m not good at all and still have roughly a 70% win rate.

The patch most heavily nerfs France, Iraq, and most importantly, Yuri.

It also fixes a metric fuck ton of bugs. Someone even managed to patch the engine to fix the input delay on lower game speeds.

Yes. But they need to be very careful to keep that bleak and hopeless aesthetic.

I thought Generals and C&C 3 looked good, but I hated Red Alert 3. They tried too hard to make it Star Craft 2.

I’ve seen people play it on the Steam deck but it’s not easy to control.

If you get back into multiplayer then use cncnet. They have a balance patch.

Absolutely. Keep it 2.5d

In terms of PR, this is literally worse than doing nothing

The modern tech industry needs the old Linus to pay it a visit. Too many grifts

The markets can't open if crowdstrike takes them all down. Big brain move

I hate when things get closed as duplicate because a lot of the time the other question is missing some specific nuance

Steam loves to minimize moderation so you’re probably correct

80% reduction is crazy! Good job!

Ah yes, let's move everything to a place where it's impossible to follow conversations or retrieve past information

Such a bizarre chain of events

... why? They're complete products that just sit there and make money for almost no effort

Somehow it got nominated for the "most innovative gameplay" in the Steam awards. Absolute joke

YouTube music being built by Cognizant makes sense tbh.

2013 Netflix competed just fine. Piracy was mostly dead back then

Everything I've read about the author does not paint him in a positive light. He seems crochety

For anyone else that isn't an engineer and also doesn't know, toughness is a defined term in material science.

Toughness is the ability of a material to absorb energy and plastically deform without fracturing. One definition of material toughness is the amount of energy per unit volume that a material can absorb before rupturing. It is also defined as a material's resistance to fracture when stressed.

Sounds like it'd work better than kevlar for armor.

I thought the article was being lazy by saying "tougher" but TIL that's the scientific term.

Oils are reusable so don’t try to ration them. I didn’t use them for the first quarter of the game because I didn’t know that. There are a lot of fights that would have been much easier.

Fuck off, Nintendo.

Best genre of meme.

My favorite one is

Your brain: big, wrinkly (icky)

My brain: small, smooth, cute

This company will be dead in three years. No one will pin their livelihood to this engine after this

This is honestly ridiculous. The security concerns are unwarranted. Any surveillance that these drones could accomplish if hacked can just be bought off of any GIS website.

"But military bases" go fly a drone by one and see what happens. This already isn't a surveillance concern.

This is going to set the hobbyist and professional drone market back a decade.

Python with extra steps

I wish developers would learn that just because they're well paid doesn't mean they're getting the full value of their work. Your CEO didn't become a billionaire by paying you the full value of your labor.

There's always room for more and unions can get that.

Nothing more frustrating than finally finding a question that matches your problem, it was closed as duplicate five years ago, and the purple link is one I looked at five hours ago that didn't help me.

NASA could do what SpaceX does if we gave NASA the money we gave SpaceX. I won't even give him credit for that.

I wish we could talk to spiders. I'd write an agreement with one that says, as long as it doesn't crawl on me, it can live in the house. I'll even build it a little shelf to protect from fan wind.

Why is Reddit watermarking images they don't own?
