  • Multiplayer relies on other people so they are more likely to have people buy it early on to play with their friends and a high player count.

    The downside is you’re paying full price for a game that still has issues to sort out. And eventually the game dies off when everyone else moves on to the next thing

    Single player games are cool because in many ways the value goes up over time. You pay a lot less to get a full more polished game, some with an awesome mod community making even more stuff.

    But to get back on track with this post yeah you can totally balance it. Play the best multiplayer games while new single player games release, get fixed and get less expensive

















  • Okay so you want to use the online maps instead?

    If that is the question I use Microsoft Earth as an underlay with the offline map. The slider can change the transparency as needed. It looks like this

    This setup relies on the offline map data which is a downside for you. But I think you can do something similar with an online map tile overlay and sat underlay and not show offline data

    Edit: I played around and you can make that work with online maps too. I used Microsoft Earth as an underlay and Cycle OSM as the primary map. This is what it looks like and the settings

    I agree that trying to bring manufacturing capability is a huge deal. Economics aside people talk about private jets polluting like crazy, well every container ship belches smoke like the fucking fire navy. And there’s a lot of them

    Speaking of the navy there’s a concerning amount of missile components that are subcontracted to chinese companies

    But all that said if I was a company and I could hold out for 4 years I wouldn’t build facilities in the US. When the new admin comes in I bet they would remove tarrifs and those facilities become way less profitable
