FFS I’m so annoyed at some of our federal counselors. Between all the Viola F-35 shit when France deal was amazing (basically, becoming besties with your neighbor).
The grey-blond milf defending Vance after his NATO speech and a few weeks ago we had some UDC/SVP fuckers saying Trump have some good ideas we should take inspiration from.
WTF? At least it’s good they don’t have that much power and we can vote them to oblivion, unless the population votes like shit… 🤦🏻
Hey Switzerland have a look at that instead of saying “F-35 is the best plane in the world and the US administration said trust me bro I won’t fuck you”
Really? Ah shit, I have it legit on steam so it should use ubi launcher but I haven’t started it in a while.
Yep, I don’t know what happened with the reviews lately. I know they did something with the servers, maybe with the PVP server so that might have made all those players angry.
I don’t have any DLC ships, except maybe for some gifted ones and I only play solo pirate/merchant on the PVE server and don’t engage too much with the community.
It is a very slow game, combats takes ages as well as trade runs. But that is what I like in those games, I just relax sailing and trying to demast some merchants. Maybe if I was participating with the community (port raiding for your nation etc) I would be angry too.
It is, but you have to progress a little in the AC story (or download a save somewhere) and then only play the naval gameplay.
Although it is nice to be able to walk on a small patch of sand looking for a treasure or going to a city. It is an AC after all so foot and parkour gameplay is good. It offers a nice change of pace from being on your ship. Unlike the – Ahem – quadruple A Skull & Bones…
From the creators of Cold Waters you have Sea Power, I like it a lot but it is more about strategy fighting with missiles and stuff from the Cold War rather than really enjoying sea.
Ultimate admiral dreadnoughts and War on the sea are also cool options for naval warfare.
Ships at Sea for normal modern sea stuff (fishing, cargo etc).
Naval action for slow wooden ships in the Bahamas.
But the best pirate game still is Assassin’s Creed Black Flag. You can mod it a little and find good shaders to have it look a bit better on today’s hardware.
(I often play Assassin’s Creed Rogue on the Steam deck as it is the small successor of black flag and looks very nice on this screen size)
Yes, citizens are happy like that, we are in Schengen + various commercial agreements and that seems to be enough.
They fear the EU obligations and want to stay independent.
Plus the population language division that is always the same, western French speaking Switzerland tends to vote green and yes to EU or whatever. Eastern German speaking votes the opposite. The Italian part usually votes like the French part but it’s almost as they are inexistant and they remain hidden in their sunny corner to avoid being annoyed.
A very usual vote result looks like that:
(French part = Oui, Italian part = Si, German cities = Ja, German country side = Nein. If you zoom in you can find green spots in the ocean of red, those are often the cities like Zurich, Bern etc. The red spots in the green part are often rich peoples areas, like on the right side of Geneva where you have those multi million lakeside houses that votes very right to stay rich)
On the political side there’s not really a anti-EU atmosphere, more like a remain neutral one. As always the right wants no changes and the left is pushing for them. Politics doesn’t have a huge power in Switzerland anyway, they work for us and not the other way around.
Except that we won’t, not in several decades.
Besides population refusal (every thing country side votes no), there’s not even a start of a political will to do it. Being well integrated and friendly in the middle but not member seems to be enough for everyone.
And on the political side we still have old Swiss-German fucks pushing for non EU stuff. The best example is the F-35. France with the excellent Rafale 4.5 gave us access to their military airspace, their supersonic range that crosses the country towards the Atlantic, airbases, full integration into the FAF training, overall they would been best mate and neighbour. Hell, they would have even authorized some carrier action around the CDG after a while if Swiss pilots proved themselves capable.
But they chose the F-35 and just a few days ago they again said that F-35 is the better aircraft, that prices won’t be crazy and that we won’t get fucked by the US. Like seriously 🤦🏻
The good thing is that we can always organize a vote to force their hand (which will probably happen) but it takes some time and effort. But even if we manage to make them switch side there’s a huge chance that France won’t be as friendly this time, with a good reason.
A vote for EU will end up the same tho, a majority of “oui” losing in front of a bigger majority of “nein”.
He is the bearded wizard we need.
Yeah ok… Clean them like any normal logical human being, aka by using common sense and stuff you already have at home. Or buy those non necessary cleaning kits!
Thanks wired.
KissKissBankBank is another French crowdfunding, quite known and used by artists or creators around here.
I don’t know if this works for OP project but that’s an option.
