My Fallout 76 B.E.T.A. adventure

Evilmatt on Wed, 2018-10-31 20:28

So I decided to preorder fallout 76, I'm trying not to preorder at all these days it's of limited benefit in this fully digital distribution world and it really only benefits the publisher. The only times I do now are when you get something worth having for preordering with fallout 76 you got access to the beta. Now the beta doesn't actually run very long it's currently 4 sessions the first one xbox one exclusive and then one that was yesterday and then two this weekend. Then the game goes live on the 15th of november.

Some more gamedev shenanigans

Evilmatt on Sat, 2018-10-20 03:30

So I've not done much work on the game engine I was playing with partly due to getting stuck on some annoying bugs which were more platform or tools level of code rather than progressing any sort of game. So I decide to put that aside for a bit and try something in a premade game engine where someone else gets all that underlying code right ahead of time and I can just focus on the game parts of it.

Good Luck Pete

Pete is getting married to the wonderful Gill tomorrow.

Since we met back in 97, Pete has been the benchmark for dependable self-sufficiency. Relying on no-one and competing with everyone (most of all himself), he has consistently used guile and wit to forge his own path. He remains an inspiration, driving rationally and stoically through the worst luck without giving up or surrendering. Adopt, adapt and improve incarnate.

GTAO More cash bonuses for just logging in

Evilmatt on Tue, 2018-10-09 18:21

300k for logging in and then if you've already done the RDR2 special missions the stone hatched and the golden revolver you get the 250k bonuses again (if you've not done them if you complete them by the 15th you also get the extra bonuses when they pay out next week).

On top of that people who preorder Red Dead Redemption 2 on ps4 or xbox by the 15th get a mil

So something like 800K for just logging in this week and then 1.8m if you also preorder RDR2

Nightclub income is doubled and it's double money on some of the adversary modes sumo hunting pack etc

Errr...didn't we used to live there?

I don't remember flats, but it was a while ago...

Divorce! (Or life, don't talk to me about life)

Nibbles on Sat, 2018-09-29 22:54

In advance of the wedding of the year (again gratz Pete, definitely looking forward to it), it's probably a good idea to lay out where I'm at, save having to explain it on the day.

So as it goes Jayne and I have separated. Not gonna lie, wasn't my choice and I'm a pretty good distance from happy about the whole deal. Never the less, I'm not distraught either. I get why it's gone the way it has and tbh there's not a damn thing I'd change, so there it is.

The only christmas album for our times: Shatner Claus

Coming this christmas truly a unique experience

Listen to the master of spoken word pop "sing" Jingle Bells featuring Henry Rollins of Black Flag

Oculus annouce their new headset the Oculus quest

Evilmatt on Wed, 2018-09-26 23:35

Interesting unit higher res than the normal oculus with inside out tracking and 6dof. Two tracked controllers based on the touch controllers. All the processing is on board doesn't require a pc. Has eye IPD adjustment. It's like a souped up oculus go basically

out next year price point $399

it seems like increasingly oculus is focusing on stand alone mobile vr rather than pc based versions. I guess they see it at a trojan horse for facebook.

GTAO: Rockstar newswire

Evilmatt on Tue, 2018-09-18 20:57

Double money on running back remix some sort of car based game mode with double money and rp on it and an exclusive livery for the menacer and the oppressor mk2
2x the popularity gained from dancing at nightclubs
25% speed boost to nightclub warehouse and biker businesses

Discounts 40% of the Akula, the insurgent, the avenger,the MOC cab, and the kanjali all of those are pretty fun things to own

Surprisingly 30% off the Scramjet which is a bit odd considering how new it is. Very fun vehicle worth picking up just for lols not very practical for anything much.
