Fun fact : this was the (slightly hidden) premise for Splatoon.
Those happy, colourful descendants of squids and other marine animals are playing paintball over the ruins of our civilization, long after human extinction.
They worship an old fax machine they found, too, for some reason.
The most baffling part of it is how it looks like zero attempt was made to attribute credibility to sources.
Using Reddit as a source was bad enough (of course, they paid for it, so now they must feel like they need to use this crap). But one of the examples in the article is just parroting stuff from The Onion.
If you don’t want people revealing the stuff they find, maybe don’t include assets you’re not using yet in your compiled game. At least not what you want to keep a secret.
Are they serious, they’re going to blame people for discovering sound clips that were left there unused for 2 years? Do they just enjoy wasting people’s disk space or something?
Oh shit, Talarico and friends are still pretending Amico will be a thing, but now they won’t even own the brand they were supposed to resurrect anymore.
Amazing they can keep that show going on. I guess they can still pretend people who left a decade ago are still working for them.
Go to Platform B and tell them : see, I bought Game already, let me play it here too.
Platform B : “who are you and why should I care?”
Proving your digital ownership never was the problem. The problem is those platforms are different companies and have no reason to honor a purchase from somewhere else.
I remember when there was a set of creature parts in Spore that you could only get from a Dr Pepper promotion, and only in North America, of course.
Got it from good people who were redistributing them, but still, yet another way the assholes at EA tried to make that game worse than it should have been.
À l’époque, j’avais payé ça 70€, mais aujourd’hui ça a l’air de tourner autour de 50 pour un truc du même genre je pense. J’en ai pas racheté depuis un moment, donc je ne peux pas vraiment en conseiller une.
Ils appellent ça généralement des “caméras de chasse”, mais bon, clairement chez nous c’est pas pour ça qu’on l’a mise.
Yeah, I saw their repair part section, they offer very little.
To make it more annoying, I already repaired that very controller. I had to change the battery because the old one was becoming useless. It was not too easy, since all I could find as a generic part (following a YouTube tutorial) was a slightly bigger battery that was a pain to fit in the case.
Pas trop mal, bien sûr c’est généralement en mode infrarouge (parce que la plupart de ces bestioles sont nocturnes). En général la caméra est plutôt en mode vidéo, ce qui fait qu’on doit avoir un peu moins de résolution je crois, mais ça reste très correct. Ça fait des prises de 4-5 secondes.
Il faut un petit temps pour que le capteur de mouvement déclenche la prise, de temps en temps le timing est un peu à côté et on voit juste un bout d’animal qui est déjà à moitié parti, mais dans l’ensemble on a quand même quelques clips sympa.
Bon après dans le cas du blaireau au moins, il est pas trop pressé.
J’ai offert une caméra à déclenchement auto à mes parents, pour leur terrain. Y a un blaireau qui vient souvent se faire tirer le portrait, entre autres (chevreuils, sangliers, renards…)
C’est plutôt marrant, le rituel du relevé de carte SD pour voir qui est passé par là pendant la nuit.
They also make them for the new 8bitdo controllers (at least the SN/SF30 pro, those shaped like SNES controllers. One of my favourite controller designs ever).
Unfortunately it seems they don’t sell those sticks as parts, only in new controllers.
My SN30 pro’s left stick started to drift, and it means it’s basically dead. I’m a bit pissed about that.
