No arguments there

EDIT: I mean “can’t argue with that”. Just incase what I wrote originally didn’t make sense

Because they benefit from it?

This just reminded me, what ever happened to Earth 2? I couldn’t believe people were getting sucked into this one in particular

EDIT: Did a quick search and seems like not much has changed. Still nothing that resembles an actual game, and still people can’t get their money back out.

Oh cool!!

I’m more than happy to be completely proven wrong by CIG! So it’s good to hear there’s positive feedback! Thanks

For background I’ve been a backer of Star Citizen since 2018, and am currently Concierge level.

Since CIG did the gameplay Livestream (the one where Ollie made his debut with the company), I’m not holding my breath with SQ42. I know, 2 different games, but if that was the best case scenario showcasing Star Citizen, then how does SQ42 look?

Here’s hoping it turns out to be an amazing game and a true spiritual successor to the Wing Commander series though!

I’ve had this exact response from “normie” people I’ve known over the years multiple times.

My guess is that it stems from the old saying “you get what you pay for”, and as such a free service without a megacorp behind it MUST be dodgy and untrustworthy.

What annoys me the most is that when you bring up the topic of privacy it’s always the exact same response, “yeah well I have nothing to hide so it’s fine”

+1 for Summit!

It has been the best clean user experience for me so far

Fuuuuuuuuuuuck that!

Have you tried Sacred 2 Remastered?

Seems like the devs have been updating quite heavily to fix a lot of the issues and missing features.

I also came across this! They are working on a pixel art title - Sacred: Last Pixel of Ancaria

Thanks for posting this recommendation! I’ve never heard of this title (or series) before, and I’ve been trying to find something new to play lately.

And thankfully it is sitting at gold rating on ProtonDB!

Drink Cuke! It’s heaven in a can

This was my pathway through as well, FB, Twitter, Insta, and Snap. Stopped using those accounts and shifted over to Reddit for my ‘social’ fix. Just recently went through and manually deleted all my posts and comments and finally my account from Reddit, now just on Lemmy and kind of on Mastodon.

This is what I can find on their website. Last updated April 22, 2026.

Seems like Russia is mostly blocked and China is fully blocked.

This guide lists different settings and methods to connect to Mullvad VPN from networks and countries where connecting to a VPN is difficult. This includes countries such as China, Egypt, Iran, Pakistan, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, Turkmenistan, United Arab Emirates and Uzbekistan.

But Russia, China, and Iran are listed here. So maybe works? I’m confused

Interesting about the snipers comment. Does the game limit the amount of snipers per team? Or is it more like BF1 for example where everyone can be a sniper if they want?

Standoffs is what I know them as

EDIT: No idea where you are located, but here’s an Aus store with some standoff screws. Hope that helps

I think so personally, because it’s still engagement and I’m assuming it probably contributes to the MAU number which could in turn attract more users

In between ARMA and Battlefield has been HLL niche for a long time, such a shame Vietnam kind of sucks. But also hence why I’m interested in Wardogs.

If you haven’t played the original HLL, personally I think that is definitely worth a shot for an “older” combat experience

How’s the actual game itself?

I just picked up Hell Let Loose: Vietnam and I can’t remember the last time I was so disappointed in an FPS release

Oh cool, learnt something new! Thanks

Does Summit have the behaviour OP is looking for?

I can’t seem to swipe between posts on Summit, unless I’m missing something?

A gigantic turbo, 5000hp, a set of drag tyres, and send it down the drag strip at mach fuck into an indestructible wall
