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. And 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
did a little more than just “asking why the mods are good with it” bud
It would be, I love the genre so I’d definitely play!
A single extension and 1-2 clicks isn’t that much to me 🤷 I’ve been doing it painfree for a few years now
If I need to keep my Python environment separate I’d rather spin up a docker container. They make virtual environments pointless
The lua sdk is great btw!
Hello, thank you 👋 The niche toys are my favorite! Someone made an orrery app, which is like a solar system simulator. I have this year’s eclipse bookmarked because it’s neat
Mars After Midnight was fun!
Unfortunately it’s still ~$100 just to make the thing, so halving the price doesn’t sound likely. It’s definitely a device you have to use intentionally because of the screen, but I still play mine at least few times a week (and daily when I’m pomodoroing!)
Plus you get 3 months of included games! A bit harder to become ewaste so fast when you’re playing something new every week
Heck yeah, I think that’s a good reason! 💛 Hopefully they ship out by mid-December, would be nice over Christmas!
Cheers, happy Halloween!
Save up for season 2, it’ll be like a game book club! Maybe we can finally make a playdate lemmy community 😭
As a dev who recently released a game for the system (on sale now - only $1!), I’m pretty excited to see what gets included! It sounds like it’ll be all new games
erm ackshually
Why are you arguing about something that matters so little?
Undead Nightmare becoming suddenly easy to stream around Halloween will probably boost sales a bit too
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!!
