Could be a dud, but I'd ask the person about details and perhaps it's a good use case
One example of a an absolute gem is this: https://youtu.be/vlD8CXr20OI?si=J2A5nrqjkFCqU_6R
Had I been still working with computer graphics, this would've been a true game changer. You can see how little views this video has. There is however a whole subreddit dedicated to sell this exact workflow (and even only the first node). There's a similar story with programming, but people are disincentived to share that. Github Copilot has potential, but seems abandoned already and I find it very odd, because it's the one product with actual substance
The issue is 1) actually exaggarated in the community, but not without actual substance 2) getting disregarded exactly because of exaggarations. It was a very real thing.
I also happen to have a multi gpu workstation that works flawlessly too
> False. A few months ago I played it for an entire day and the game was fine. Last week I played it a good portion of Saturday night. I'm in several large HellDivers focused Discord servers and I've not heard a lot of people complaining about it. Maybe 6 months ago or a year ago this was the case, but not now.
I specifically mean the exact time, right after the pelican starts to fly. I keep seeing "<player> left" or "disconnected". Some come back and I have a habit of asking: "Crash?", they respond with "yeah"
I was just about to replace my gpu (4090 at that!), I had them 3 times a session. I did sink a lot of hours to debug that (replaced cables, switched PSUs between desktops) and just gave up. After few weeks, lo and behold, a patch comes out and it all disappears.
A lot of people just repeat hearsay about the game
- To their PC not reboot and BSOD (was a case few months ago)
- Be able to actually finish a mission (game still crashes a lot just after extraction, it's still rare for the full team to survive 3 missions in a row)
- Be able to use weapon customisation (the game crashed, when you navigated to the page with custom paints)
- Continue to run, even when anybody else from the team was stimming (yes, any person in the team stimming caused others to slow down)
- Actually be able to hear one of the biggest enemies in the game
- To not issue stim/reload/weapon change multiple times, for them just to work (it's still normal to press stim 6 times in some cases, before it activates, without any real reason)
- Be able to use chat, when in the vehicle (this would result in using your primary weapon)
- Be able to finish drill type mission (this bugs out a lot still)
- Not be attacked by enemies that faze through buildings
- Not be attacked by bullets passing through terrain, despite the player bullets being stopped there
are just vocal player's complaints? A lot of those bugs went totally unaddressed for months. Some keep coming back in regressions. Some just are still ongoing. This is only a short list of things I came across, while casually playing. It's a rare sight to have a full OP without an issue (even mission hardlocks still).
About Sony - I specifically referred the Shams Jorjani's (CEO of ArrowHead) explanation to Hermen Hulst (the head of PlayStation Studios) why the review score collapsed to 19%, among other issues.
It took Sony's intervention to actually pull back the game into playable state once - resulting in the so called 60 day patch.
Somehow random modders were able to fix some of the most egregiously ignored issues (like an enemy type making no sound) quickly and effectively. ArrowHead ignored, then denied, then used the "gamers bad" tactic, banned people pointing it out. After long time, finally fixing it and trying to bury it in the patch notes too.
They also have been caught straight up lying about changes, most recent one was: "Apparently we didn't touch the Coyote", where they simply buffed enemies resistance to fire, effectively nerfing the gun.
Now I'm weighing more on the Apple side for not making it better.
Turns out a lot of them like a good party too.
