Valve Piston by Sofia Lamb - Sat, 25 May 2013 21:02:01 EST ID:ng/LkjJg No.479304 Ignore Report Reply Quick Reply

So since the wiiU flopped and the XBoX One is confirmed to be loaded with bullshit, if the PS4 turns out to be too similar to the XBox One, how interested are you in Valve's Piston?

There will be the issue of the operating system need to run. I suspect it will be Linux as Valves has already opened steam up to Linux systems, but that will restrict what games it can run. The Linux game library on steam is still tiny. This might be why valve isn't rushing development of the piston. Gabe might be counting on more developers and newer to include linux support and by the time valve has the piston ready there will be plenty of linux games on steam.

How awesome would it be for Valve to release the Piston and as include Half-Life 3 as its flagship game?

Also its confirmed to be Linux, (should have done more research) and Gabe is convinced that Apple will be it's primary competitor.

This is not always true. During peak hours, when pops are balanced, there are some very long and even fights where both (or all 3) sides have large forces.

I've picked it up again since they introduced that new Lattice system to Indar, which I very much like, in my opinion even though its not by much it at least slightly mitigates the zerging, which is good. Example, playing it the night of its introduction a big vanu force pushed us back a few bases, but the third one we came to in the chain of very separated ones was very defensible, and enabled us to counterattack since they failed to split themselves down the opposite chain of bases that it connected to, and couldn't surround us. Plus the new MAX abilities are pretty cool.

Take that back you defescent scum. It was one of the best during its peak popularity.

Find your role, stick with a group, get together with other players, get organized. If you're in an organized group, or at least communicating with your squadmates, you will instantly become one of the "good" players in a match.

A large part of Microsoft's marketing department is viral marketing. I'd bet Rakuen is one of them.

To paraphrase Malstrom: Microsoft has never been a technology company. Microsoft has always been a marketing company. Rather than make products which function better than their competitors, they merely make the idea that they do or that they're necessary.
For years they successfully constructed the idea that Internet Explorer was the only browser. Now they're trying to construct the idea that it's the only safe one. See "lolMozillaCrashfox" and "lolChromeBotnet".
They've successfully constructed the idea that everyone needs Microsoft Office as it's the only functioning office program and everyone needs a full office suite, even if you only use one or two of the programs.
They've constructed the idea that OSX is barely functional and Linux is too complicated for humans. More importantly they constructed that idea in software devs as well, giving them an OS monopoly.
They've constructed the idea that the Xbox was hugely more powerful than the Gamecube, even though that was debatable and would be a close result in any case. They've also constructed the idea that it was a huge success when it only outsold the Gamecube by ~5 mil.
They constructed the idea for many years through viral marketing that the PS3 had no games and the Wii was only for kids.
And now, again through viral marketing, they're trying to construct the idea that not only is "always on internet" not a problem, it's actually a feature (although Valve has to take some credit for that).

Why bother making good products when you can just make everyone think that you do?

Hey /vg/ do you guys know any good Youtube channels or websites for video walkthroughs or gameplay? I mean stuff without commentary, memes, or douchebags in the corner of the screen. If any of you are familiar with Louischou, that's what I'm looking for. I subscribed to him and some other similar guys back in 06-07 but since then most of them have disappeared and he's not doing anything new. I haven't really followed the gaming community in the past few years but it seems like all the old walkthroughers (that's not a word) have fallen off the face of the planet and I don't understand the appeal of these new guys.

Thanks /vg/ in advance

Thanks. Seems like a really professional guy.
I was really hoping for some FPS walkthroughs. Years ago I used to watch some guys on Google video who made complete Half-Life/Quake mod walkthroughs. Great stuff but I have no idea what happened to any of that content.
Horror games are another big one. Typing any horror title into the Youtube search bar is just a nightmare. I'd love to just see what a game is about without that Pew Pew guy screaming in my ear.

I hate LP videos. I've only tried watching a couple and one stream and it was just terrible. The stream being the worst. The guy was playing dark souls and had a written strategy guide open and on screen and just kept going on and on about how easy the game was. After 10 minutes I had to stop watching between his rants about how easy the game was and his shitty song he was trying to sing about taco bell.

I don't want to be entertained by you game player I just want to see how a particular part of a game is done.

Anybody else excited for this game? Coming out for Steam, PSN, and XBLA April 19th.
I think it looks like a blast. The setting and arena-based format are fresh for a run and gun, plus I just generally enjoy most third person shooters, especially with co-op. The emphasis on customization is just icing on the cake.
By the look of the community page, Steam players (and possibly console) can expect some solid updates in the future and possibly the implementation of Steam Workshop.
I know you guys tend to be wary of preorders, and I'm not necessarily encouraging you to buy it now (I did). But do check it out!
Here's the only extended gameplay video I've been able to find:

>this game is pretty cool, pve is hard but beatable even with my starter ship
>only one pve mission? that's pretty lame...
>play it 3 times with the starter ships to see my favorite (the tank one)
>only halfway to level 2
>guess i'll try pvp once just to see how it is
>enemies in pvp that have 10x my stats and are literally impossible for me to kill, even when I shoot them for 10 seconds straight but they can kill me in 2
