MODERATORS
Some games have button layouts that make certain actions a pain. Two examples.
Horizon Zero Dawn - Healing is by default done by hitting dpad up. You generally want to press this button whenever you take damage to essentially trigger health regen, but doing so requires taking your thumb off the left stick, which means you can't simultaneously avoid even more damage. Bind to back button, problem solved.
BallisticNG - Weapons are bound to X, discard weapons is bound to B, and accelerate is on A. So when you pick up a weapon, to discard/use it you either have to drop thrust (bad, never do that) or awkwardly shimmy your thumb to either hit X or B without letting go of A. Bind X and B to back buttons, problems solved.
Hey fellow WipEout junkie 👋
Thanks for connecting these two dots. BallisticNG never crossed my radar.
I set up !ballisticng@sopuli.xyz as I've seen the game mentioned all over lemmy now.
Hoping to eventually organize some online tournaments, but we're gonna need players :D
Best "Classic WipEout" homage I ever played.
Put it in 2280 mode and it's the best "Modern WipEout" homage there is, too.
It's literally the "get yourself a girl that does both" of WipEout games.
god I wish omega was on PC
Vita3k + WipEout 2048 + HD DLC + Fury DLC = almost Omega Collection on PC 🤣
Runs great on Steam Deck too.
Oh I have to try that.
