    At first I thought Amazon buying MGM would be cool, because maybe they would revive Stargate. But Brad Wright indicated they passed on his recent show pitch (the one where the Stargate program gets revealed to Earth)

    Yes, that too. If you go to an extract closest to the radiation storm, those can sometimes be quieter, but I've come across some pretty hot ones. A couple days ago, there was literally 3 squads using it within the last 2 minutes

    Btw, if you're getting perma camped at exfils or just want lower risk exfils because of a PITA mission that requires you exfil something that is hard to get, I have a few tricks I've learned 1) When the radiation expands, it will deactivate exfil points once it crosses them. However, if you...

    I will say that if you game with a regular group, you may want to use discord over ingame coms. The area voice has saved my ass so many times when a squad is in an area and I would have otherwise had no idea

    Call of Duty Modern Warfare II 2022

    One of the missions is extract with 4 dogtags, so you're seeing a lot more campers at exfil points

    Weather

    With freezing rain or the like, you can at least just try to avoid driving if possible for a while and it will get resolved Getting feet of snow sucks because unless you live somewhere that handles the cleanup, your ass is going to be stuck outside for hours clearing that crap

    Given the language kids are using in the lobby, I’m 90% sure most of them will be using those flags ironically

    Audio has always been questionable in CoD, so probably blame the game

    Finally did the fucking helicopter mission. It spawned in the soccer field and for whatever reason no one had picked it up, even though there was 2 UAV towers active to the north. So finally I say fuck it, drive all the way over there, take out the guards, and fly to the helipad. So far so...

    I have yet to see a modern Korean MMO of note that isn't p2w, so I suspect we will see more of the same: Beautiful graphics, really solid gameplay....and some p2w bullshit that "encourages" you to swipe.

    They used SBMM in WZ1, so they probably use it here. The biggest thing I notice when you presumably move to a higher SBMM is the pre-game lobby gets spammed by people on mic using "gamer words" and other dipshit stuff. Those games on average seem to be a bit sweatier than normal. The quiet...

    Ya, the bots start to get deadly. I was in just a regular area and some armored bot beamed me and downed me in less than a second and they start to throw flashbangs and shit

    Call of Duty Modern Warfare II 2022

    The first few matches you get more bots than humans. After you play enough DMZ, you get more human squads and you definitely feel it Also, if you try to do the higher risk stuff like weapon case or strongholds, you get a pretty good challenge

    It's 100% something to do with money and/or access to their proprietary data/coding/etc. ActiBliz wouldn't give a shit otherwise

    Call of Duty Modern Warfare II 2022

    I've been queuing solo and it has been manageable. Self-revive is a must and watching the map for vanishing missions or activated stuff is key to avoid getting squad owned. From my experience thus far, it seems like most people are trying to speed run weapons cache and most of the lobby...

    Andor

    We know Andor lives, so I suspect they will create tension by dangling the fate of people like Bix in the finale. She looked pretty rough this episode after what we can assume are multiple torture sessions

    Project LLL

    Looks cool, but curious to see how it actually plays. When your demo that only shows a single person is already chugging frames wise, makes you concerned lol

    Andor

    They honestly need to show the first 3, not 2. Pacing on the first 2 is fairly slow and you only get the payoff in the 3rd. If you just show the first 2, you’re probably not going to build your audience very much

    Black Panther: Wakanda Forever (2022)

    With many myths/legends, there is frequently a small kernel of truth to them that is embellished and expanded. Take for instance the story of Noah's flood. Unto itself, pretty bullshit. But lots of cultures had "mega flood" myths. At a casual level, it could be an exaggeration of normal...

    In Brimstone anyways, I am also pretty sure AGS loosened up the "if there are too many people, the bosses won't drop anything" rule. I've been on multiple chest runs there and the bosses have been dropping loot pretty regularly.

    Sandboxes don't really work in the MMO space anymore unless you give the playerbase a robust enough set of tools to actually make something of it AND you have a passionate enough playerbase that actually uses those tools to their full potential.

    The Witcher

    Spartacus: Gods of the Arena was great. S3 and onward was good, but not fantastic. That just shows that other good supporting actors and good story can buoy the loss of a main actor/character if needed But Spartacus was still a historical drama (even if it played fast and loose with...

    It's a fantasy show, so they could use magic or some shit to change him I guess.

    Unless they plan to pull 'A Realm Reborn" revamp and have the resources for it, I suspect it may end up like Anthem.

    Real question is how do they handle the actor change?

    The best compliment I can give this show is you could strip away all the Star Wars stuff and it would still be a good show. It uses the IP to enhance, not as a crutch

    Westworld

    I think the bigger problem is they focus less on an overall narrative arc beyond a single season. Now I can understand the pitfalls of that: If your story arc is too broad, and you don't get renewed, then there is no satisfying payoff for the fans. But unless you have some really strong...

    Pretty much everyone forgot about this show, but they just confirmed season 2 will start 2/17/23. Looks like 10 episodes with them dropping 2 per week. Also confirmed to be the final season

    On the topic of bots, they have been somewhat absent from the Brimstone zone, which is interesting. And nice. I've actually been able to harvest high end materials. Of even greater interest, I have noticed the gold farmers returning to the old ways: Actual humans playing shared accounts...

    New World

    Depends on what you mean by new? Brimstone Sands is well done - they have a much more cohesive story/quest experience there, a lot of interesting POI that you can either run solo or in groups, time specific spawns (ie, they only spawn at night or daytime), chest runs that take a bit more...
