I am gonna be honest and say that I enjoy from games more because not everyone can finish them. There is lots of poo poo I can't do in real life. To think that I would worry about a game I can't do is loving laughable.

pretty sure COD is still rooted in id tech but it has come a very long way so I don't know if you could really say its running on a quake engine any more. this latest cod was a pretty reasonable step up in fidelity for once. and well optimised for PC.

I'll repeat myself, BUT there's that -3- at the top. There's plenty of space to suggest that nothing should be above or below that one blue tile at the bottom. This helps solve the 4 close to it.
either cell, above or below the one blue at the bottom could also be blue, so you would have to guess which. It can't be both above and below, but it could also be none. So thats guessing again, right ?

The -5- is the key imo to at least some progress. Even if you assume both of the ones next to the 2 in the bottom right are filled (note at least one must be filled), that leaves either 2-3 above on that line. That solves 3 and 4 on line below, which may lead to more reveals on the board.

Edit: also that means your 2 cell on the left is also solved.
so the furthest I can get is that if you think of the row as being 2 pairs of 2, then the blue cell then another pair above the 2 on the right each pair has a blue in one of the cells and one of the 3 has both blue. each combination can solve for any of the 4, 3 and 2 below it so they dont exclude any possiblity that I can see.

edit: the only thing I can say for sure in that bottom -5- row is that both end cells cannot be black because that would make it 5 in a row between them... so one of the end cells has to be blue. But then either both end pairs could be blue too.

Sorry, I mixed up -5- and {5}.

Just try the 133 line? You can open up the 3 hexes above the 1. The 3 has 2 filled in its bottom row, unknown which 1 on the top.


nil. posted:

For the "1" with the two "3s" below it in the middle:
The blue cell for the "1" are not at its top left, top, or top right, as otherwise there would not be enough spaces for the "3" below it. The "1" must have its blue cell either to its bottow left or bottom right.
You both sound like you are explaining the same solve but I can't work out what you mean.

Problem is older base consoles is their biggest market and you gotta wonder how they missed that target if they've been in development for 9+ years
Is it quite that certain ? I don't think PC sells more copies total in history than all the console platforms they sold cyberpunk on but its not like orders of magnitude more... PC is a more significant platform than people assume I feel.

So what do you guys think about Surge 2, especially when compared with other Soulslikes?
This person had actually made quite a convincing argument for the game:

https://www.reddit.com/r/patientgamers/comments/klpe6u/the_surge_2_is_the_first_soulslike_ive_played/

And the dismemberments from a random review I've seen seems pretty awesome.
So far, I've only been able to get into Sekiro & Star Wars: Fallen Order.
However, I just can't get into the rest, including the original Dark Souls 1/2/3.

So I'm very interested in what you guys think about Surge 2 vs the rest.
Especially because the current discount is pretty good.
its good. It is moving towards being its own thing. The first was closer to a souls game the second moves further away. It is much more actiony - faster paced, you have a lot of healing and can heal through a lot of damage and then regenerate that healing pool mid fight by hitting poo poo. By the end of the game I was pretty OP and could smash stuff and heal through a lot of punishment so its not nearly as hard. Its a bit tough at the start still. Adds some little side things like hiding holograms of yourself around the world and hunting other peoples holograms for credits. IMO its the best of the non from things... whatever that is worth.

I would love to know what the dev teams plans are for the ascents future. I want to play more of that game but there is no reason to go back after you finish it. If they could meld a replayable dungeon looter ARPG with that world it would be... real nice. (or a CRPG but that would be disastrously ambitious for a 12 person team)

Qmass

mortal shell is kick rear end so far (unlocked a bunch of stuff and killed the first boss) Pretty brutal at first but once you get the hang of harden it opens up a lot of options. The DLC weapon is broken OP (specifically the axe's ability - especially if you combine it with cheap resolve upgrade on hadren's shell)
