I am saying it’s irrelevant how we feel about it, how we think they should adjust, etc. They adjust by sheer numbers only, look at PS Plus pricing and tiers. I cancelled my sub and haven’t care about it, many people that are vocal also did. But yet their number is good enough so they stick with that increase.

They have like team of people specialized in pricing a game, so whatever we feel is too high, too low, too fast or too slow is irrelevant. All we players can do is wait until the price feels right for you or when the update/support for pc features is justified. (say, I only buy with proper ultrawide support and unlocked fps. )

They have the numbers, if they don’t have good enough sales, Sony wouldn’t speed up those ports and their release schedule.

Pretty much the system ram : vram ratio should be about 2x to have some wiggle room(both for OS and other things running in background). most of previous gen GPU have 6~8G vram thus 16G is kinda standard. But now with GPU heading toward 12~16G as standard(for non-flagship), 32G would be better so game can hold more things in system ram before they stream upload to GPU.

there is a reason humble bundle’s pay what you want model worked, lol. I bet if humble bundle allows company to get data back for pricing analysis, it would greatly help the indies.

Found the comment who know what’s going on plus the gold points redeem below. We know the cart is unique thus I don’t buy used game on grey market for switch.(facebook/craigslist) Too risky.

it slow but people that likes to do archive should have their own mirror of things.

long time rocket league player and have about 20 hours from open beta + release combined. Have to say RL’s netcode and physics still remain unbeatable, while Rematch tries to hide their input lag during live match through animation length, it’s very obvious when you played long enough and have those wonky lag or desync/rubberbanding even on connection <60ms average.

The game have good fundamentals, but I doubt it will have good skill ceiling for longer term as the main ranked mode is 5v5 which relies on positional play. The dev didn’t mention quite a bit of things in terms of mechanics but players slowly converge to explain things off experience. Like, when you have the boost on, you have higher priority when trying to hit/pass the ball then player that does not activate it. At the moment, because of the lag/desync, person have good ball control/possession have advantage over people trying to defend if purely in a 1v1 situation. If you are goalie/sweeper since it has some modifier to make defending easier, but still most goals are scored 1v1 against goalie because of the options available to attacker and the boost committed shot/pass shot.

5v5 ranked also mean people who solo queue will have much tougher time to grind through ranks to get where people can pass reliably or position proper.

I wish them have more time focus on making the netcode good and reliable and then tweak the options for defender to force a more position/passing heavy game.

So encrypted, periodical interval to mask out any incoming/out going variance in traffic I wonder how they mitigate the backend part as there might be a ton of wasted traffic to hide the actual traffic. since they obviously need a lot of users to hide the whistle blower, but that also mean their backend needs to be pretty smart to handle lots of traffic and still consume energy to decrypt and then throw away the “noise” data.

that’s really cool. Does the message part work as regular p2p message app?

But like the ice tracker, wouldn’t download and use the app expose the potential user lists to surface if local authority can ask for such information?

yeah the director’s cut seems to make the progression much smoother. I am just like maybe 1/3 into it, maxed out connections so far each for new stations I get to. (5 stars on my leg so far.)

I do understand the need for those forced encounters, now I got gears to handle I need to remember to turn off the slow mo when encounter them. XD

thanks for taking the time explain the details. I guess when working against gov level tracking you need Tor/VPN/etc to stay safe.

depending on how they implement it. ie. the covid map and wild fire map apps from the BC gov doesn’t actually pull any information from your phone except location if you turn on the proximity alert. IF enough people download the app it would be very hard to locate the user even if you have location alert. It is a good idea to download EVEN if you are not in the targeted group cause projectiles won’t stop mid air because you don’t look like Latino. Simply be near the area of active raid carries risk.

It can be done proper and be great help for people either want to avoid be in the area or trying to help out fellow human beings.

I wish all MBs just get rid of the GPU latch thing.

Is there a list of more popular decentralized platform and their equivalent?

the virtual texture tech is not all mighty and you can still run into situation where if the allocation is fewer than you need you run into the page swap. It act similarly to traditional cache miss if you cross certain threshold because you can’t keep enough “tiles” in memory. Texture quality popping and then stuttering is the symptom progressing from lower than needed vram allocated to severely insufficient.

I’ve joined one of the Steam Dev Days conference in Seattle. It’s around time where people was still doing things like cross buy etc. (so buying the game on website unlocks both steam, dev’s own drm free version, maybe even console version.) I do not know if any of the actual developer term is updated after that time, but during the conference, one dev asked question exactly like this, can he sell his version without the 30% cut from valve if it does not going through Steam while giving away the steam key for free. The answer is no.

During the time it was explained that if you sell on different platform, that gives better sale %, steam can also impost that sale % on it’s platform. At the time EGS was still not a thing but people asked about can they have different price on different platform, I think the answer is also no or not recommended, as they can request you to match say the base price of itch.io but they don’t mind if that sale and software never use anything from steam. They specifically mention if any steam feature, like invite steam friend is used, then no, even if your game are not downloaded or use any steam distribution feature.

You are in the wrong here, Steam have a term where you can’t mark the sale cheaper on any other place, including your own website as you can generate your product keys.
