Exactly! Creatures that peek around corners and slide back away when you look toward them, monsters that follow your eyesight to dodge attacks, etc.

It could be great!!

Any ideas? I’ve wondered the same, don’t really vibe with the 4X pattern but I like the slow snowball

I want a VR shooter that actually uses the tech interestingly. Give me sections of Zero G with full 6dof. Give me quirky weapons with panels you slide open when they overheat and barrels that twist to change firing mode. Give me abilities that I could only use with a virtual pair of hands, like slingshotting grenades without dropping my primary or reaching into things to grab loot. Also make the gunplay feel like Pavlov because it’s the best.

Easy enough, right? 😅

Edit: also use eye tracking to make the horror better

Vizor explained that Ricochet uses a list of hardcoded strings of text to detect cheaters and that they then exploited this to ban innocent players by simply sending one of these strings via an in-game whisper. To test the exploit the day they found it, they sent an in-game message containing one of these strings to themselves and promptly got banned.

Vizor elaborates, "I realized that Ricochet anti-cheat was likely scanning players’ devices for strings to determine who was a cheater or not. This is fairly normal to do but scanning this much memory space with just an ASCII string and banning off of that is extremely prone to false positives."

This is insane, they had an automatic script to connect to games and ban random people on loop so they could do it while away

They could’ve been telling you to go off because the not all men argument is unnecessary and pedantic. Obviously it’s not all men, but it’s enough of them that nobody should have to specify only the misogynists, racists, rapists, etc.

It has always been bizarre to me that good people lump themselves in with them. You don’t have to be defensive! You can understand nuance!

It’s like the devs said “what if we took one specific type of animal crossing player and made a game for them”

I look forward to webwatering and webbugcatching (where you play as a frog)

At least they’d be doing something productive with their damn guns

Even as someone who doesn’t usually play the genre it’s a fantastic game

Because young men will have a much easier time getting laid when abortion is restricted nationwide and contraceptives are harder to get 🙄 talk about shooting yourself in the dick

What's funnier is that the title comes in quotemarks. So you're not straight, you're "straight".

lmao
