Talking like this? Fucking irritating in public. Speaker so loud everyone can hear, not even trying to lower their voice Like the area is loud so they gotta turn up and talk loud. You know what else solves this? Taking it off speaker and holding it to your ear like a phone.

Their phone flat out in front makes their profile larger, and I know that seems silly but that’s another foot and a half in an already cramped bus.

Each main cod is 150gb now

Downloaded dmz for some friends on pc it’s 68 so consoles probably see 75-80 if not more

This is BEFORE the fact that On console, each game demands its own space to unpack the entire thing when it tries to update. So on PS5 not only is the game 150gb, but you need 150 free space to update meaning the game is functionally a “ghost” 300gb (I uninstalled cold war over this shit, I don’t have time or room on a console for that fucking nonsense)

Because it’s the only game your console will have with the shitass packing they do

Developers follow industry leaders. If call of duty can sell a 240gb game (mw3 on ps5 without their launcher) other publishers look and will decide to get lazy optimizing. “We’re not call of duty, our game is ONLY 70gb!” You already see this.

It’s not a nerve, in the March of progress there’s always someone at the front of the line youre not wrong., But these aren’t just in front, they’re racing the March like they want to set a new quarter mile record. Mw3 is 240gb (if you dont already have the launcher hub)

For most people who buy a console and forget about it, that’s ONE game with half the hard drive space already eaten, with 8 years left in the ps5s life, not counting support during “next gen”. It’s a lack of respect for consumers time updating it, because cod has to unpack its entire friggin size to update. Cold War demanded 180gb of “free space” to update. The game was ~160 before, and then ~165 after. It took 180gb to download 5gb. Thats half my hard drive.

Consumers will happily buy a hard drive “when it’s about that time” but consumers are not flush with cash to buy 5 externals for games each year, at the rate game sizes have gone. People also do not want to juggle what games are installed because thats a PITA too. At this stage cod should just come on an external hard drive, cartridge style.

On console: Mw2 150gb warzone2 115gb Mw2s “cod hq” for launching games 50gb (the only mandatory one) Mw3 seems to be about 190 looking at articles. (For campaign, zombies and warzone)

They’re starting to obfuscate where each thing comes from now with the Cod HQ Launcher to play off the size of the games. As well as let you delete components like zombies and campaign to “save space” that they hoarded.

Part of it is how much of the sales pitch stressed the accuracy. Dont tell people you’re making something “as historically accurate as possible” and then flagrantly disregard it.

Like making concessions is one thing. In cod ww2 red dot sights are unlockable because frankly iron sights suck. Not historically accurate but gotta give players some kind of magnification to see at medium/long range.

But every gun getting a Silencer (not even suppressor lmao you can straight up make an LMG near silent) Disregard of reality. Cod ww2 didn’t like…sell itself on its historical accuracy, but these were just 2 examples to show it.

An archer can hit a man 450-1000 feet away. What’s a man clad in 200lbs armor gonna do? All he can do is take it. So the armor was sloped and thickened. Relying on horse speed to make them harder to hit.

As far as my understanding, it was. Long bowmen were far more valuable because the costs associated with losing a knight was high. Infantry were given various polearms, and cavalry (or knights on horses) were given lances and spears. The kinetic energy from horseback functioned as good or better than trying to wind up swings of a weapon. Also human mobility is less than that of a horse before even accounting for armor, so being demounted from your horse mean almost certain death.

Swords were a last resort. A “running away is better” type of option. Being good with your sword is like being good with martial arts today - better to have it even if you may not use it.

Things to know you’re 30

“I wish the odd white one just went with the grain” (white hairs will grow whichever way they please, and it starts with only a few)

“Ah, that’s gonna be my bad knee”

“I don’t know why I have a sore spot there it just comes and goes”

“Dental repairs cost how much?” and suddenly brushing and flossing will be a second hobby

Tinnitus, but not like severe. Just once in awhile and often enough to keep you guessing like once a month or so.

“There was a pop but I don’t know where.”

“Oh my god I’m turning into my parents”
