Mr. Nice! posted:one of our friends liked to use remote mines and switch to the detonator while they were still mid air to catch people as they ran by you didn’t have to switch to the detonator. pressing a+b simultaneously also acted as a trigger

uncompressed art assets for the sake of latency pops up quite a bit in games. given how often i've seen it be faster to load compressed data and decrypt it than to read the uncompressed data, i have trouble believing that it's actually a good idea even if you don't give the slightest gently caress about your install size.

audio doesn’t have to load quickly, it can stream in faster than it can be played, even with DVDs

Gaming "Journalism" posted:For me, I'm loving Titanfall, but geeze does that 48 GB size make my 240 GB SSD cry. Since it apparently wouldn't effect the performance on my high-level PC anyway, I don't see why the uncompressed audio couldn't have been an optional download... why do these fuckers all write at a level that would make an eighth grader with a LiveJournal cry

AI based voice synthesis is really fascinating when you feed it indecipherable input and it tries desperately to still sound human https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CtR-8qCdwrA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afrAWrMt0U0 I am sure putting neural networks in charge of important stuff won't lead to bad things happening ever
