Everyone was like "where's the DMZ news" and now @InfinityWard are posting TWO videos in one evening after I've spent all day teaching.

I'm exhausted, but keep it coming!

(Also check out all the new DMZ videos on my YouTube channel, lots of cool details I've picked up on)

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

@BuckshotJ0nes @SiNister1080p Yeah you're talking to two people who have 1st hand experience of what you're talking about, but you're deciding to ignore that to believe in your own narrative instead of asking any questions.

You're not interested in what's true.

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

This is a real shame if there's no solos mode/playlist in #DMZ - I thought it had been confirmed in the creator call back at the reveal, but apparently not.

Really disappointed about this!

[Mark Grigsby - GRiGGs @gawdgriggs]

@TommyTecTV You can go in Solo. No guarantees you will only encounter solos.

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

@SiNister1080p @BuckshotJ0nes I just don't like their misinformation sitting unchallenged, at least if other people find this thread they can see me explaining what actually happens

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

@implode99 Weren't the ai companies just talking about how they were testing agents that broke free and started using their access on other platforms to try and achieve their goals?

Yeah I'd rather just have a person make something and understand how it works, like the open source OBS

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

Sometimes I look at streaming software and can't wrap my head around why it doesn't focus on doing the specific thing I need it to do really well.

Then I remember I'm not the only person in the world.

But still, if anyone wants to build the software of my dreams, let me know!

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

@implode99 Is definitely prefer not to use AI, especially for something I have to rely on for work that also has access to my stream keys and platform credentials

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

@EvolveTom All seems to work!

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

@BuckshotJ0nes Not at the creator call we don't. One time over a Twitter DM conversation I said it'd be cool if for Easter eggs there was a way to track how many you had done and later they added that pc in verdansk that shows you. Maybe that was because of me?

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

If you're a creator with a 2 pc setup, this thing is great

[Miguel Lozada @MLozada]

Have a few extra units for Elgato Wave XLR Pro sendouts.

Any creators looking to upgrade their audio workflow?

Let me know why you could use the upgrade. What will it replace? How would it change your setup?

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

@BuckshotJ0nes Because? You'd rather creators just rush out things that are incorrect?

How does it affect you exactly?

Also, re: Next - you mean the two hours we got to stream the beta before the beta launched? I'm so sorry you had to live in a world where that happened.

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

@gawdgriggs Excited to have infinite missions to do!

Also:
1) Will there be any way to play solo and be matchmade only against other solos
2) What is going on with these parachute types - are parachutes single use now?

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

@BuckshotJ0nes Why? It's just them presenting information about the game to us so we can make content ready for the reveal?

It wasn't a two-way thing, we weren't giving them feedback, we hadn't even played the game then

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

@craigderrick My wife was embarrassed for me every time Biddi beat me

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

Gears is such an impressive visual spectacle AND a great gameplay and narrative experience.

Such a fun game

[Kate Rayner @Kate_JRayner]

I’m incredibly proud of the technology we built for Gears of War: E-Day and the amazing technical team at The Coalition behind it.

We pushed UE5 hard with ray tracing, MegaLights, hardware Lumen, Nanite skinning and 60fps on Xbox, alongside a fantastic engineering partnership with @UnrealEngine.

Digital Foundry goes deep on how we got there. ❤️

@tweeting_keith I think the Greens need a Mamdani, someone who is pragmatic and unashamed of their principles, but with some local power and so effective that the effect of what they're doing is undeniable.

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

@VictorEAlonso @CallofDuty Hopefully there's enough solo players to make it work

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

I really hope there's no assimilation in the solo mode for DMZ with the new @CallofDuty

- I don't want it to be a race to get into fights so you can build a team of 4 and steamroll the lobby

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

@Osc_91 Yeah I don't know for sure, but this seems likely

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

@CallofDuty @InfinityWard but is there a dedicated solos playlist/ way to just go up against other solos? I thought that had been confirmed, but recent tweets seem to say no - you'll be in the same games as trios

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

@mlgsnipermaster No, I was really hoping there is one in this, I thought they'd promised that in the creator briefing, I saw a few people other than me also posted about there being a solos mode confirmed, but now it sounds like there isn't

[Geeky Pastimes @geekypastimes]

@volrogue I play DMZ almost exclusively loading in solo now and there's trios in every match, sometimes I meet a solo or two along the way, but I'd really like a solos-only mode
