But they did mention that community servers would be able to pick which Anti Cheat they wanted to use?

As I understand, there are three tiers to this:

  • Official servers will use FaceIt exclusively.
  • Servers rented from official partners will have the choice of FaceIt or EAC.
  • Community-run servers will only be able to use EAC, and won't be hooked into the global progression system.

One of the many problems with FaceIt is that the server-side component is not allowed to be freely distributed, which is why community-run servers won't have the option to use it.

Personally, there is no way I am buying this unless if they reverse their plans to use FaceIt.

For me it was Brotato.

I am 90% certain it was never meant to refer to the generation that played it, but to the over the top action.

I'm surprised that Chipzel (of Super Hexagon soundtrack fame) has yet to be mentioned: https://chipzelmusic.bandcamp.com/

On the other hand, each game progressively drops more RPG features and adds more action features.

Having globally routable IPv6 addresses for each device doesn't prevent you from running firewalls.

It isn't just for menus, having good mouse input allows you to play significantly more games than with just joysticks.

The touchpads also can act as extra buttons or touch menus, giving you way more input options for games where you don't need one to be a mouse.

On the tech side of things, the environmental impact of running traditional, centralized services is inherently lower than running any cryptocurrency off of a blockchain. To overcome the technical limitations would be to create another centralized service.

But yeah, there are almost certainly ways that traditional currency can reduce their environmental impact, too.

I wrote a Matrix bot that can be used for my community to schedule gaming events. I just pick a time to play a particular game, and play with whoever shows up.

Yeah, if you just want to use it personally, you should click Sign In in the menu, then Open Element Web, which brings you to https://app.element.io/.

Alternately Get Started then Download the app.

Either gets you to a client where you can easily create a Matrix account (on matrix.org).

I feel like there are too many to list, but an obvious one that I don't see mentioned is Halo. The Master Chief Collection is pretty great, and has a ton of content that can all be consumed in short sessions (except for certain levels on legendary difficulty).

It is also still on sale on Steam for a little longer, if you don't have it already.

My only problem is being a misanthrope, and scared of the general multiplaying public, I’m always intimidated by public games, but I’d love to convince enough buddies to play a campaign through.

I have 183 hours in Barotrauma, split between multiplayer and the sub editor (and a little bit of testing my sub alone). I have never played a public game or single player, it has basically all been the campaign with friends.

Most recently, I've been hosting occasional Barotrauma events with my inclusive gaming community, each one continuing the campaign we started early this year. The last event was just over the weekend. I don't know when the next Barotrauma event will be, yet, but anyone who can follow our Code of Conduct is welcome to join!

Not necessarily true. Celebrities and Nitro subscribers also got early picks, and it isn't like they wait for each person one-by-one: you are in a bucket with others who might get to your preferred username before you.

I've been really enjoying racing in Automobilista 2 with several friends recently. A bunch of us went from using a controller to having a wheel and often a wheel stand in a short period of time, because we all got so into it.

I think there is a lot going for AMS2 (as it is commonly abbreviated): lots of variety in the cars and tracks, it is easy to set up casual races with friends, it is very dynamic (like in varying track and weather conditions), works well with a controller or a wheel, looks good and performs well, etc.

The title seems to be missing important context: this is specifically for NVK.

Anyway, pretty cool to see the progress on this!
