The game seemed like it would be epic, great graphics, open world..etc. But I have never seen any discussions of this game and it seems now as if this game was a fail or something so I never got around to buying it. I got Doom instead which received tons of positive postings at most every forum and I, frankly thought it sucked. It was like Quake 3 Arena SP but with more detailed maps. Anyway, Homefront  looks amazing though so wanted to know if this game was any good or not and if it was good then why did any hype for it virtually drop off the face of the internet?

If you thought Doom (one of the best games of the year) sucked, then something as lousy as Homefront: The Revolution may just be for you.

That doesn't really tell me anything. They are completely different games. Perhaps you could clarify what made Homefront lousy so I can decide? Since there seems to be very little if any discussion on this game, I have little in the way of actual gamer's perspectives to go by.

Bad AI, broken missions, various other bugs, performance problems, awful and laughable story and a major disconnect from what is going on in the game "world" to what you're actually doing making it near impossible to have any investment in the game.

That's more like it. So the bugs, have these been patched? Have you played it recently? I know with AC: Unity, people griped like crazy over the bugs even to this day but I played it after the final patch and never had any issues whatsoever and thought it was great. The story isn't something I play games for, I'm more interested in the gameplay and if any bugs have been fixed.

Unlikely. Just go read some reviews on steam.

      Sounds like the debloated build you are running is missing some components that the Photos app and Snipping Tool rely on.

    • Apple and Tesla trade secrets reportedly exposed following a Tata Electronics cyberattack

      Apple and Tesla trade secrets reportedly exposed following a Tata Electronics cyberattack by Hamid Ganji Image via Depositphotos.com Tata Electronics has confirmed that it detected a cybersecurity incident in some of its systems. The Indian company is a manufacturing partner of both Apple and Tesla, and the incident may have exposed some trade secrets belonging to the two American companies. The World Leaks ransomware group is said to be behind the attack, and it has reportedly posted up to 200,000 files on the dark web, including component designs and specification documents related to Apple and Tesla products. Tata Electronics told Reuters that its response protocols were deployed immediately and that the “incident has had no impact on our operations across businesses, which remain unaffected.” The ransomware group reportedly sent a ransom demand to Tata Electronics, while Apple has launched an investigation into the incident. World Leaks claims it stole more than 200,000 files totaling over 630GB from Tata Electronics. Some database files on the ransomware group’s website are titled "com.apple.factorydata," which could refer to Apple’s iPhone production operations in India. Moreover, some documents reportedly contain material specifications and quality inspection standards for iPhone circuit board components. However, Apple is not the only affected company. A folder found in the World Leaks database is titled "NV36 Chargeport Controller - North America," which may refer to Tesla Model Y components. Additionally, other files in the database reportedly contain drawings related to Tesla’s Project Highland, the internal codename for the EV maker’s updated Model 3 sedan. To support the authenticity of the stolen files, World Leaks has published documents containing footers that read: "This document contains proprietary and confidential information of Apple Inc." and "information contained herein is deemed confidential, proprietary, and a trade secret of Tesla Inc." Cybersecurity researcher Rajshekhar Rajaharia told Reuters that the database also contains emails, event logs spanning several years, and passport copies of employees, including foreign nationals. Both Tesla and Apple have declined to comment on the scale of the incident.
