Booo

>>725069815 (OP)
he is right, you know... honestly this game doesnt sound so bad, why does /v/ hate it again?

>>725069815 (OP)
So that's why Helldivers 2 is so good.

>>725069939
You seem to be illiterate? Surely you can read better?

>>725070268
It is nice to know that bugs can bleedout too.

>hurrrrrrrr enemy hp bars and player hp bars different
Damn son you're so stupid you defend illogical concepts just because I was being mean about your whittle fotm dead shooter. Gonna cry now bud?

>>725069815 (OP)
Depends on the game but yeah shit like healthbars and damage popup numbers are often stapled onto games where they don't belong

>>725069815 (OP)
yeah well people are gonna optimize the shit outta the game and a meta will be formed whether they want it to or not. casuals will slowly get edged out and future balancing updates decides if the game dies or not

>>725071130
Game is already dying, streamers are bored, steam drones are bored and everyone has figured out there is no difference between running around naked or with gear with no long term reason to play either.

Tarkov has a giant gun system, Arc has literally nothing.

>>725069815 (OP)
Those numbers are still there and people can still figure them out through playtesting. All this does is give the player less info to work with.

>>725071536
Good. Then just ban anyone who ever posts a meta.

>>725071397
Wow. So a game came out, people played it, have had their fun and are leaving. Good. I'm sick of this mtx fomo forevergame bullshit.

>>725071628
>banning people on a f2p game
Good luck with that

>>725071805
>Arc
>F2P
Lol

>>725071645
No one got their moneys worth from this scam, it has a whopping 5 hours of content before you see everything. Its like paying $50 for a 15m movie.

>>725069815 (OP)
tbqh enemy health bars usually look tacky and out of place. I press the button and numbers go down. Hardly a fight.

any webm changes

>>725069815 (OP)
Excel sheets are awesome though.

>>725071836
Oh wait it actually has a pricetag? Even so you can just buy more accounts with influencer dollars from making guides or disassociate. You can't stop discussion of the game without killing your community.

>>725069815 (OP)
Games inherantly are spreadsheets. Underneath the graphics and gameplay its all calculations and stored numbers.

First mod after a nier skin and nude mods will be adding health bars

>>725072102
Yes but we have those graphics and gameplay there for a reason, because just an excel spreadsheet is something that appeals to very few

>>725072102
Portal.

Get rekt loser.

>>725072218
In what way does that not apply to portal?

>>725072194
But it's still there, and people want to optomise it because that feels good.

>>725069815 (OP)
If you have to do enemy health bars attach them to the HUD. Don't just slap them over the character's head as if they're a physical entity in the world

>>725072619
Players dont use numbers dumbo

>>725072682
No.

>>725069815 (OP)
Not planning on playing that shit but I kinda agree with the point, many games would benefit from that

>>725069815 (OP)
This would be cool if it meant “arms and legs and torso and head have their own hitboxes and effects when hit” instead of “we don’t show the health bar”

>>725073349
That just means arms and legs have their own healthbars which are shared by the larger pool, which is what tarkov does.

>>725073154
Yes they do, they don't know what they are, but every action is a number to the machine under the hood.

>>725072194
The gaphics are an illusion, anon. All you are doing is moving boxes of data.

>>725073567
No like, if you hit the arm it’s disabled or blown off but doesn’t affect the overall organism at all, which requires getting the head

I won't be happy until I see shit performance from steam graphs.

>>725069815 (OP)
Based.

>>725069815 (OP)
meanwhile some blessed autist will use every weapon/rarity and count the shots, posting it to the wiki
"with weapon A, it takes X shots and this rarity, but increasing it to that rarity makes it only take Y shots" etc. people can infer and create baseline numbers to equate that and figure it out. or data mine. hiding it in obscurity is just fucking stupid.

>>725069815 (OP)
he's right. math fags btfo

>>725069815 (OP)
When are they adding level skips, don't have the time nor want to bother grinding up to 75
