I mean CS:GO was 2012, and it only “died” a few months ago. Hell, Mario 64 was 1996, and it still has a huge following. Genuinely good games remain timeless
Edit: forgot about the part where you mentioned “since 2013,” so ignore my point
CS:GO is a valve title not EA. I was specifically referring to EA.That aside…
CS:GO was only a repackaging of CS expansion which itself was a repackaging of CS half-life mod from 1998.
Sure 14 years later the graphics engine was a little updated and there were new maps, but I played a lot of the original and after installing CS:GO I was supremely underwhelmed by the lack of change.
It Takes Two too often borrowed from that “well that just happened!” school of comedy that I just couldn’t stand. Not all the time mind you, but enough to bother me.
Maybe it’s a way to make sure they don’t forget. Like “oh hey bro i saw u had some lewds in ur history make sure u go incognito next time” “Damn u right man good lookin out” fist bump
Think about how you’d feel if your own country was in a shit situation economically, and wasnt safe anymore, and then someone told you to go the fuck home… that street goes both ways, and could be a reality.
Of course. There’s no way any of them could bother fighting to make their country better. Better to let them take what made their country bad to a new one.
Easy to say knowing your home is a safe place to be. Also really racist and presumptuous to assume that someone wanting better opportunity and safety is by default dangerous and/or always going to be poor.
And extremely ironic to say that from a country that was founded on the idea of coming here for better opportunities.
Dude, there were already people here when we showed up. We killed them and gave them diseases and stole their land. How’s that for coming here legally? So arrogant.
Yes, and they’re trying their best. That’s why they need to go back. Honestly the worst immigrants are the ones who refuse to assimilate and form their own insular enclaves. That’s how you get no go zones and terrorists.
Seriously. What race is American? I’m calling for immigrants to assimilate into American culture. Not to become some different race because I think whatever race is the better one. I think American culture is the better one than theirs because they’re running away from theirs.
You think its a mindset. So some japanese teen who, what? Thinks real hard about cowboys and burgers is american? Fucking coke head, what are you talking about?
And which american culture? Our states each have 10 different versions of macro cultures. Our cities dont even have unified cultures, they never have. Do you even live here? We subsivide between east coast, northwest coast, southwest coast, midwest, bible belt, great plains, and on and on and on and so on.
We brag so hard about how multifaceted our patchwork culture is its almost a cliche. Do you go outside? Have you even spoken to americans?
For fucks sake, dude, dont talk about a nation youve clearly never lived in.
And yet an American is an American. We’re not all that different, but then you go into some enclave of immigrants who came here only to earn more money or possibly escape crimes they’ve committed. They want nothing to do with contributing to the US. They take for sure, but they are at their core, in their heart, not American. They’re Guatemalan, or Venezuelan, or Mexican. That is the core issue. I was just remembering about how Kamala Harris. The Vice President told people not to come. This is NOT a minority opinion. This isn’t just me.
By this logic, you would absolutely respect an immigrant came into your house, beat the fuck out of you, and claimed it was theirs. That’s okay to you, right?
The same logic applies, only different scale. Plus, in case you’ve forgotten, nations are made of people. It’s people that lose their homes, their loved ones, their lives.
So, back to the question, how would you feel about someone coming into your home, killing you and claiming r to be theirs now?
I suppose you can ask that unironically to the Israelis doimg that to the Palestinians. But really, this is ancient history in America. It was done mostly on behalf of the government, which is different from individual actions. Unless of course you are saying that the “economic migrants” (illegal aliens) are working on behalf of an invading government.
I hope you don’t live in America. You know, the country literally built by immigrants, who stole the land from the natives, and then also raped and killed a lot of them. That’d be pretty hypocritical and ignorant of you if you were an American.
As stated in another comment, we conquered. All in all it’s hard to find a single country out there not built that way. And lots of immigrants is not lots of illegal aliens. If you want to come in you should have to follow the same rules. Otherwise don’t complain if you get deported.
Having “law enforcement” rife with literal gangs, selectively enforcing the laws, and writing laws that benefit a few wealthy individuals at the expense of everyone else is how you create people who don’t respect your imaginary made up bullshit laws.
Overall, cops tend to selectively enforce laws mainly against poor people, and do fuck-all about corruption and psychopathy in their own ranks. They’re trained to be trigger-happy schizophrenics with a fetish for authority, and taught that it is ok and desirable to defend that insecure god image at all costs, including others’ dignity, rights, and even lives. Basic social norms of respect don’t even make it to the conversation.
Saying cops don’t make the law is as facetious as saying the supreme court doesn’t. They technically don’t, but they do get to decide when and how to enforce them, if at all. Very ripe for the corruption we’ve actually been seeing.
And who decides the good law and the bad law? The only ones allowed to do that are the courts, not the court of public opinion. Not to mention yours is not a popular opinion.
And frankly if you’re so unknowledgeable that you think anarchy means a complete lack of rules or order, there’s no point continuing this conversation because you obviously lack even basic understanding of politics.
That’s what happens when people stop following the rules. It doesn’t matter what rules you think shouldn’t be followed. If you stop following some you stop following all.
So you think when people stop following the states laws, that they will instead get together as a community and work out a set of rules for living together as we have done for hundreds of thousands of years?
Because that’s what anarchism is, empowering communities at the people level to make these decisions for themselves.
It works every day. People don’t go out and not murder and steal from everyone else just because it’s not legal. Society can function without a top down system.
You say that as if conquest isn’t vastly worse than demographic migration.
You’re literally trying to justify why Americans should get to stay by pointing out that they are even less deserving for having arrived by force instead of by mere migration.
Just because you have different ideas than I do doesn’t mean I’m wrong. We can both have opposing views which have basises in reality. Just depends on how you look at the world.
They would add more years if they could, obviously. Kinda reminiscent of mediaeval people digging up dirtbags to put them on trial again. When you hate someone ...
“I’ll explain: Before you can launch Modern Warfare 3, you have to launch Modern Warfare 2 first. Seriously. “Call of Duty HQ” is just the Modern Warfare 2/Warzone client under a new name.
Switching between Modern Warfares 2 and 3 from the HQ is not like switching modes. Once you’re on the main menu, you could jump immediately into Warzone or a multiplayer match of MW2. Clicking the Modern Warfare 3 button, however, closes the HQ app and launches an entirely different executable called Modern Warfare 3. There is no option to just launch Modern Warfare 3, because “Modern Warfare 3” is not its own game. It’s buried, literally, inside CoD HQ as a piece of add-on content.
The result? It takes 70-90 seconds to launch Modern Warfare 3—at least, those are the times I’m getting. That’s an eternity for CoD, but what’s baffling is that these extra steps serve no discernable purpose for players. Perhaps Activision pitched the CoD HQ with consoles in mind, where games aren’t so easily organized by series and an app that switches between the handful of still-active CoDs is useful.”
Other way around, according to the article: the launcher considers it a mod for MWF 2 and as such it can only be launched by first entering the lobby of MWF2. It has no independently launchable executable file.
This is very wrong. They’ve been doing this with Warzone (which is free-to-play) for a while. If you try to launch MW2 from the launcher when you don’t own it it just takes you to a page to buy it. There’s no way they would lock you out of a game you own just because you don’t own another game in the launcher. Not defending the practice though still completely ridiculous you have to launch the MW2 launcher first.
You can actually download it without buying . I wanted to play warzone on ps5 . Took forever to find the download for it but it basically makes you download all of modern warfare 2 just to play the free to play parts .
Economic migrants should go through proper channels to migrate to another country. Note: economic migrants, not refugees. When I wanted to work in NZ, I had to get a job offer, do a medical checkup, take IELTS, apply for the visa and send supporting documents. Don’t shit up another country. Also, illegal immigrants almost always pay smuggling syndicates who then use them as indentured slaves to repay the fees. The employers will also pay them much less due to no workers protection. The end result is they barely have any extra income.
It’s amazing to me how people really believe illegal economic immigrants to the United States are just like “nah man, fuck the paperwork, trudging my way across a life-threatening desert is so much easier”
I wonder what could possibly create a positive incentive to do something so insane? It couldn’t be that getting legal immigration is almost impossible, could it? Surely it’s the poor people who are wrong.
Oh wait…
“Because of the numerical caps and per-country caps on certain green-card categories…as of November 2018, there were 3.7 million people waiting in line abroad for a family-sponsored green card, and 121,000 awaiting an employment-sponsored green card.”
WE’RE the problem. We simply DO NOT PROVIDE a reasonable legal framework for people who want to come to the United States to do so. They’re still here, mind you. So clearly those county-based immigration caps are very effective.
If we want to end illegal immigration, then we need to reform the immigration system so more people can do it legally.
“Illegal immigrants” to the U.S. is a consequence of all the shit the U.S. did to Central America in the 1980s. They didn’t have to do any of that. They helped toppling stable, democratic governments to put authoritarian clowns that would do whatever they wanted. And when they finished serving their purpose? “Lol get fucked, y’all, bye Felicia!”
Also, “People are coming here without our consent!” Hmmm… that sounds kind of familiar.
“Illegal immigration” has always been a part of this country (migrants coming up to work farms during growing season) except they used to go home during the off-season until border crossings became more strict and they had to stay for fear of not making it back in later. These people obviously serve a purpose here in the US or they wouldn’t be coming but our laws just ignore reality in favor of unworkable solutions that leave these people vulnerable to being exploited.
