Ranked will not be F2P. If you already own Seige, you won’t have to pay again for ranked.

Yea, Shroud helped a lot during early development.

My hype is so strong I reinstalled Rising Storm 2. They even fixed the performance problems I had last time I played, roughly 3 years ago!

Gods I need to replay it and go around slapping the English, again.

It’s nice and works very well, but lacks a user base.

Actually, yes there is! Windows 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC. massgrave.dev

Thanks, I hate it.

!I’m saving it to be a menace in friends’ Discord!<

Man, years ago I grabbed an add-on for WoW that made a database of everything across all characters. It tracked gold, items, etc, and playtime… I was not prepared to see i had over a year of playtime… Which granted, includes AFK and time in queues, but still.

Yep, people have had to use alternative Discord clients on Linux for quite some time.

For anyone curious: Vesktop, ripcord, webcord, and armcord are the ones I tried at some point.

Hah, I just like spreading the good word of piracy. Especially Discord since their app is a piece of shit.

Oh no, not my free account.

Thanks for the heads up, though!

I don’t fully understand how Discord works, but apparently certain Nitro perks are just client side toggles. I only use it for streaming 1080@60fps, so I’m not sure about things like emojis, and after that I don’t even know what other Nitro perks exist.

Sorry autocorrect!

You can fake a Nitro subscription for free higher quality streaming. Look up Vendord, it hardens Discord for better security, adds themes, and plugins. One such plugin is fake Nitro.

Edit: Vencord. Got autocorrected.

Also adding I have only used fake Nitro for streaming quality. So I have no idea if it works for emojis or whatever other Nitro perks there are.

It’d take a fresh install, but W11 IoT Enterprise LTSC is how all current Windows should be. Only has Edge + Defender.

You can find it on massgrave.dev

Winget makes fresh Windows installs much less painful!

Just incase it helps anyone: For the 11 IoT LTSC, to use winget you first have to install 2 packages via power shell. First: VCLibs.x64.14.00.Desktop.appx Then: DesktopAppInstaller_********.msixbundle

Ok.

It feels snappy enough to me. I dunno about fans though, as I set mine in UEFI/BIOS.

Just adding that 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC is also super solid and great for gaming, no bullshit installed, just Edge + Defender. I disable Edge- instead of uninstalling- with a tool that just breaks it, since Edge always gets installed again eventually.

I got it from that same site, been problem free for months now. I only went with 11since my 5800X3D is still fairly new.

Edit: Fine, no bullshit other than Edge + Defender.

You can install all the M$ Store and Xbox apps. Afterwards the XBox app will tell you all the other apps missing and a 1 click button to install each. It’s just a nice clean blank slate to start with. It doesn’t even have .net or vcredist installed.

What missing feature sets?

Edit: I myself install 2 needed dependencies to get Winget running after a fresh install. One has to do with UWP.
