If its built on UE5 that is likely to be dogshit. The issues seem to be exactly that the physics are jank in UE5 as well as other issues with consistent performance. If this is just them fixing those issues and renaming, sure that works. But if they could do that why did they not fix it when UE5 was getting dragged though the mud?
I am thinking it will work on RL just fine (likely with a lot of backend work) but 6 like 5 will not be stable outside the showpieces.

There is alot more that goes into those projector and LED headlights then you think then. They have not been a bulb and reflector only in 30 years or so. If they where still just a bulb and reflector we would not all be talking about having to face the fucking sun itself everytime we drive at night.
- Comment on Why have we as a society just accepted the increasingly blinding bright lights of cars? 2 weeks ago:
I do, they are not really much different from what is put in cars today. HUD? We put screens on everything, IR? its just a bulb type. IR cameras? Its a camera.
- Comment on Why have we as a society just accepted the increasingly blinding bright lights of cars? 2 weeks ago:
It did appear, but never went main stream. The cost was high, but like projector bulbs if mainstream produced the cost would come down.

Oh no, just agreeing on the tense. Hope that it stays that way.

*had
And it was eminence. But maybe with their fall we can get cool IR cars again.

No but they will not also pursue one that is not allowed in the us market as hard. But then again time are a changin.
- Comment on Why have we as a society just accepted the increasingly blinding bright lights of cars? 2 weeks ago:
Not sure, but the tech is old and tested (almost all cold war era things used IR lights). The issue is I think they can sell the super terrible bright lights as “safety” features. And a lot of consumer trends are american based and just forced on the world.
- Comment on Why have we as a society just accepted the increasingly blinding bright lights of cars? 2 weeks ago:
Running lights are a thing, and I see enough people driving with only them at night now.

It is proven tech! It was used in WW2 for shits sake!

Adjust your lights to not blind other drivers?
- Comment on Why have we as a society just accepted the increasingly blinding bright lights of cars? 2 weeks ago:
No IR not UV. Not the same wavelength UV and IR are on the opposite sides of the visual spectrum.
- Comment on Why have we as a society just accepted the increasingly blinding bright lights of cars? 2 weeks ago:
The brightness is an issue, but the placement and angle are the bigger problem. Its the slippery slope of following american trends. Years ago Mercedes Benz (I think) put out a car that used IR light and a heads up screen (no visible headlights, just running lights) showing the driver the night landscape without needing to blind everyone. It was banned in the states, no real reason why but the idea went dead.
- Comment on Why have we as a society just accepted the increasingly blinding bright lights of cars? 2 weeks ago:
Its gotten to a point that seems impossible, just full clown world. Its gotten to the point that my favorite car to drive at night is my Fiero, because I am so low I am below most of the blinding lights.
- Comment on Why have we as a society just accepted the increasingly blinding bright lights of cars? 2 weeks ago:
Its (like many things) mostly the us’s fault. A slide away from rules into vibe based everything.
I remember a long time ago when I was first getting my license you had to pass a headlight test where you parked in a spot and there where painted lines on a wall for both high and low beams. It was how you adjusted your lights and was common in Canada. Now no one even knows what I am talking about. The rules are still there but no one enforces them and most forgot they can even adjust their lights (not sure new cars and trucks can be anymore).
Manufacturers in North America are now putting their lights so high up on vehicles and use such bright piercing lights on everything that night driving has become a nightmare. The answer to getting blinded is now to out blind others, its madness.

It does not even look good. It looks like a toy and if you managed to swallow it whole it would likely come out of you looking the same.
Really how is that thing someones version of greatness?

Yeah, I am still waiting for unreal 5 to not be a hot physics mess. Guess they are giving up and delivering another half baked engine instead.

Gotta love the song for that series, and so many dead beavers.
- Comment on I would like to play a calm game 4 weeks ago:
KSP with mods is one of the all time best. Timberborn is oddly good, kinda chill city builder with beavers but if you don’t balance your growth your beavers will die. Would recommend.

The first Kerbal Space program?
Timberborn?
Disco Elysium?
If you don’t mind turnbased then a whole bunch of stuff.
- Comment on PS5 Exclusive Saros Has Reportedly Only Sold 300K Copies 5 weeks ago:
They sold a similar amount, your agument only works if saros sold a proportional amount more (10x in this case). As it stands the marketing clearly did not work.
- Comment on PS5 Exclusive Saros Has Reportedly Only Sold 300K Copies 5 weeks ago:
Game review and news outlets cover the games most likely to be of value to their audiences, partially because they foster that with their own interest, and partly because the data tells them what their audience is reading or watching.
Have to vehemently disagree with this, it is clear that their coverage is not dictated by the value their audiences receive but from other more corporate values. And as time goes on the media coverage on games has less and less valued. It has nothing to do with my option on the media but my observations on the industry. The reason I brought up zenonaughts 2 was that it has 1/10 the reviews but similar sales, and that is indicative of the clear decline of the main stream gaming review system not having the pull it once did.
- Comment on PS5 Exclusive Saros Has Reportedly Only Sold 300K Copies 5 weeks ago:
What other gaming areas are you thinking of? Are they user driven for content and discourse like this?
And there are 130 outlets reviewing the game because they are in the business of reviewing games and this one was a rare exclusive for the ps5. It would be odd if they did not review it (and give it questionably high marks). If you look at a game like xenonauts 2 that also came out recently that sold about the same number of copies (very odd since one is very niche) they only have 14 critic reviews vs 130. The issue is the critic reviews clearly don’t hold the same value to consumers as they once did.

Edit response time: That people interested in games did not know about it would be very indicative of a major failing and current lack of relavance of mainstream gaming media. That would seem to be very much on point, as there is no need to help us for not knowing, but it would seem Sony might need help.
The fact that I never seen or heard of this is no surprise though, the only time gaming news coverage shows up for most is when there is some sort of scandal. Its why I know more about “Mix Tape”, “High Guard” and “Marathon” then this game.
I like my small indie / oddball games but I find I get more info from people steaming a game and talking about it then a “review” that had clearly been bought and paid for. And it seems I am not the only one, as clearly no one is reading the “major” gaming news sites anymore. Well at least in this case no one from their target audience is.
