You must be pretending to be polish

[proper basin]

Im a full-blooded gamer

(Loser)

[feral ferry]

Ok gamer andy

[fading spade]

As the best gamer, I never lose my virginity
None Like Joshua

[feral ferry]

Anthony Joshua???

[fading spade]

[proper basin]

Well he never loses, so thats always a win for joshua

[fading spade]

its from this xd

[proper basin]

[feral ferry]

I need eye bleach

[fading spade]

:')

[proper basin]

Could still be worse

[feral ferry]

It usually does get much worse when lanaposting is involved

[proper basin]

True

[feral ferry]

We love you Avanna!

Or.. Lana

Or.. Hiyori

Seriously wtf is with your identity crisis

[fading spade]

:')

there is no identity crisis

[feral ferry]

Either identity crisis or 3 identically weird siblings using 1 discord account

[fading spade]

well, none of them are my name

sooooo lol

[still spire]

Names are like an onion

[vital wyvern]

thought your name was lana though

[fading spade]

no

not yet

[vital wyvern]

that's irrelevant

your name is what you choose it to be whether it says so on paperwork or not

[fading spade]

true :D

[feral ferry]

Ehhh...

Not really how that works?

[vital wyvern]

of course it is

[feral ferry]

Let's not mix up usernames and names

[vital wyvern]

let's not mix up government paperwork and identity

[feral ferry]

Lana was talking about the former

[vital wyvern]

nope

I mean, she was but then I pointed out it doesn't make lana any less her name

[shrewd lotus]

Last Epoch. Yes or no?

Only 30min in but asking before I get really into it lol.

[willow quiver]

no

[vital wyvern]

korean grind game? no from me dawg

or is it some other game I'm thinking about

[fringe salmon]

and its capped to not overwhelm servers lol

they only let like 450k people in or so

[bleak pike]

I wanna play it but I don't wanna deal with the servers.

Also not exactly cheap

Isn't it like super repetitive

[winged moon]

Anyone know how to get wootomation to work in Helldivers 2? There's a couple of really long Statagem codes that I cannot remember.

[orchid prism]

And... how many of those games are online only multiplayer games?

[bleak pike]

Idk, it reminds me of that Warhammer game but procedural?

The survival one

[orchid prism]

The what now

[bleak pike]

vermintide 2

I'll be honest though I haven't really dived into reviews etc for helldivers

Just basing on what I've seen

[orchid prism]

Life is too short to care about a game that goes against your principles - and has 3rd party camera 😄

[bleak pike]

Eh?

Me? No

[orchid prism]

Invasive DRM to protect microtransactions and nothing else.

A complete lack of immersion.

[bleak pike]

Are you saying Im not buying because it goes against my principles?

[orchid prism]

-i- am not 😛

[bleak pike]

Sorry I'm just a bit confused haha

[orchid prism]

You do you.

[bleak pike]

Are you saying you don't wanna play it because of that?

[orchid prism]

Because of which? The DRM on what is a singleplayer/coop game with no genuine centralized element or need?
Or the 3rd person? 😄

[bleak pike]

Oh ok I get you now.

The drm does indeed suck

Third person I personally don't care about.

[orchid prism]

I genuinely loathe CDPR for making so many of the cars impossible to use in first person mode.
(In 2077* )

[bleak pike]

But my biggest issue is I don't wanna spend $40 not knowing what Im getting into while also having server issues meaning the 2 hour refund window is redundant.

[orchid prism]

It's not even an OPTION though. That's my beef.

[bleak pike]

But also I hate forced online

[orchid prism]

It should be -my- choice, not theirs. The game already has first person AIMING, but only there.

[bleak pike]

Ye i get that but I mean there's no p2p etc

Look at payday 3

[orchid prism]

Which happens to be centralized because microtransactions.

[lament ledge]

I didn't find them impossible, simply better in 3rd.

[orchid prism]

Left4Dead is a multiplayer only game... which you can host however the hell you want (and mod it)

[orchid prism]

You literally can't look out the windows on several car models. You're driving blind.

[bleak pike]

I don't believe Mtx belongs in it either but people will bring up the price as an excuse.

[lament ledge]

Maybe it does bother me because I don't give a shit about not hitting anything 😂

[orchid prism]

I think you don't understand what BLIND means.

[lament ledge]

Ooooooooh

[bleak pike]

You would be on a motorbike

[lament ledge]

I forgot about the ones without windshields

[lament ledge]

Ha!

[orchid prism]

Some of them will show the outside world through the metal plated front. But you still can't go in reverse because of this..

[lament ledge]

This. I used that transportation method far more than driving

Unless a mission forces you to drive

[orchid prism]

The first screenshot is how it used to be all the time. They finally patched in the latter sometime later. But it's still not playable in first person. Gotta go drone camera.

[lament ledge]

The verticality is fantastic and has very few limits

[wheat kraken]

I haven't played in forever but I hated the way the driving felt without a controller but I preferred everything else k&b

[lament ledge]

Which car is this? The armored limo?

I forget the name

[tough jay]

Don't like the first person driving in the game at all, not having actual mirrors and the limited fov just makes it annoying

[orchid prism]

Nomad car. The Hoon? with machinegunes

[lament ledge]

Ooooooooh

I was way off

[orchid prism]

Freebi from early game

I have 2.5mil so I could buy any car... just don't see the need.

[wheat kraken]

Fair enough

[lament ledge]

I don't think I ever bought any

I just stole whatever I wanted

[orchid prism]

They made theft more... challenging.

[tough jay]

I did buy some later on, when I had money, but I mostly drove motorcycles

[orchid prism]

If police is nearby, you're asking for a several minute chase just to get a car. Not worth it in a rush.

Speaking of cars... I could rant for a long time about how the Car race sidestory with Claire specifically tells you about vehicle combat, yet most of the cars past the first race are invulnerable.

[lament ledge]

I haven't played it since the patch so I heard it's pretty different overall

[maiden tulip]

hello

[lament ledge]

I used either Jackie's bike or the one from the Nomads more often than not to get around

Hola¡

[maiden tulip]

Bonjour

Hej

[orchid prism]

I only got my Nomad car back, because I specifically loathe the VA for that side quest.

Purely out of spite. Money was literally not an issue 😄

[lament ledge]

I really want to start a new play through

But I know I'm going to pour in 100+ hours

[orchid prism]

Hardly. I'm doing basically everything, and I'm at 27hours with not a lot of main-story content left 😄

[lament ledge]

I have too many other games in my library that I need to finish first

[orchid prism]

I'm about to hit the level cap, and I have a ton of those "lalala" gigs with no real story left. So... yeah.

[maiden tulip]

Phantom liberty was better than thr base game

By far

[lament ledge]

Still haven't started it

But I loved the base game

[maiden tulip]

The first game was fun but felt like a chore at times

Phantom liberty has great pacing

Better story

Imo

[orchid prism]

I'm not convinced.

[lament ledge]

So are you, fuzzy britches

[orchid prism]

Terrible pacing.

It does its best to completely drain you from all adrenaline in the introduction. And then just falls flat after that.

[lament ledge]

The story in the base was great. Somewhat boiler plate cyberpunk troupes but still

[orchid prism]

It's almost as if the creator of Cyberpunk was involved or something 😄

[orchid prism]

The man, the myth, the fossil.

[lament ledge]

Mr. Pondsmith is a treasure

[orchid prism]

He belongs in a museum

[lament ledge]

https://tenor.com/view/how-dare-you-greta-thunberg-gif-15130785

[maiden tulip]

@lament ledge you're just offended cuz ur a boomer

😛

[lament ledge]

I will turn you into a handwarmer

[maiden tulip]

You won't be able to chronic back pains will stop you

Cant catch up to me

[lament ledge]

I'll trap you. I'll dangle a baguette smeared with briere and you'll be unable to control yourself

[nimble current]

who could control themselves in the presence of baguettes smeared in cheese

[maiden tulip]

cheese good

@lament ledge is this where you found your tricks

[lament ledge]

It didn't take cheese to land mine.

[meager lion]

wut is the best wooting settings fortnite?

[bleak pike]

Amazing

I mean now I'm worried

If Mansen thinks phantom Liberty is worse than the base game I'm doomed.

Because the base game was god tier garbage

[maiden tulip]

Lol

[maiden tulip]

You just started it?

[bleak pike]

I bought but never started

[maiden tulip]

I thought it was way better personally

[orchid prism]

0/10 Won't let me pet k a t

[maiden tulip]

Didnt feel like a chore to play PL @bleak pike

Where as playing base game felt like one

[orchid prism]

Hold the phone... Gear has stats?

[maiden tulip]

Just trust me rather than mansen

His opinion is bad

😛

[orchid prism]

The pacing is all over the place.
I pulls some really predictable shit - which we already had an overdose off from the basegame.
The conclusions (endings of the DLC) are shit - the special ending you can unlock that replace the basegame ones is shit.
It's a mini zone within a zone. They literally took the already underrepresented Dominica and placed an expansion on top of it - with a completely different theme and feel, like it's a bad Bethesda DLC.

And Edris Elba is a mid VA. There I said it.

[vital wyvern]

damn I kinda scared to play it now

[orchid prism]

It was the Edris Elba diss, wasn't it? I apologize.

[vital wyvern]

I don't know who that is 😛

[orchid prism]

[vital wyvern]

I don't know why I should care about voice actors

[orchid prism]

Like a certain Matrix actor, he lends his likeness and voice to the game.

[vital wyvern]

I don't know why I should care about actors 🤔

oh

no clue

just another person to me

[drifting rose]

the wire is fantastic
also hollywood actors are usually not great at being VAs

[maiden tulip]

Check out our 40$ screensaver guys

[lament ledge]

You

[lament ledge]

Massive

Dork

[maiden tulip]

No u

[lament ledge]

I'm sayin

Although I completely expected matching pink headphones with ears

[drifting rose]

is that a tamagotchi?

[maiden tulip]

Room will be repainted soon

Dw about it

[lament ledge]

They role play pawing at the walla

[drifting rose]

looks like humidity

[lament ledge]

It adds authenticity

[maiden tulip]

That's already done

It's just the inside that needs to be repainted and plastered

It just needs to be done i know 🙂

[drifting rose]

aside from all that, nice screensaver

[maiden tulip]

No i have a boring black headset

Waiting for the landlord to get his shit together

Its metal

[lament ledge]

Lead is also a metal

Solitude

[maiden tulip]

We're savjng up for a home

[lament ledge]

And fur suits 😞

[maiden tulip]

Sorry i didn't have the money ready when i moved out of my parents place lol

[drifting rose]

drink from a lead + microplastics cup and do lines of asbestos on the side, and your gaming energy reaches max

[maiden tulip]

Money doesn't just appear @flat frost

If i coulda just stayed at my parents place i woulda just stacked money up and bought right away

The bigger down payment the better

[lament ledge]

I think they burrow

[maiden tulip]

Buy most likely

Not build

Also figuring out nico's immigration wasn't cheap

[lament ledge]

Filthy foreigners

[maiden tulip]

10k on immigration lawyer fees

[drifting rose]

what third world country is he from

[lament ledge]

Denmark

[maiden tulip]

Now our objective is to save up for a home 🙂

[lament ledge]

Fuckin cat on the keys

[maiden tulip]

Also i'll say despite that one water issue that happenned which can happen to anyone

This apartment is nice 4 and a half rooms, it's an extension built on an existing building, can't hear the neighbours at all got my own driveway

700$cad a month (519usd)

It's fine until we get a home

[lament ledge]

Jesus that's cheap

I paid that 15 years ago

[maiden tulip]

But yeah now that the whole permanent residency shit is basically settled we can use our money towards saving up for a home

damn foreigners making me fall in love with em am i right?

[barren pewter]

She lives in the middle of nowhere

[maiden tulip]

That's insane to me

[lament ledge]

Most wildlife do

[barren pewter]

fair enough

[lament ledge]

I paid over $2k a month for a one bedroom

[drifting rose]

what the samhain

[lament ledge]

For like 8 years

[maiden tulip]

Wtf

[lament ledge]

Boston, baby

One of the most expensive places

[drifting rose]

that's expensive
regards, expensive frogs

[maiden tulip]

My first apartment when i moved out was 3 1/2 rooms for 400cad a month

[unique bane]

I pay 700$ mortgage for a 105 m^2 (1100 sqft) house with a yard built in 2011

[lament ledge]

Eat shit

[maiden tulip]

296usd

[barren pewter]

You must live in a dense part of Finland

[drifting rose]

I'm paying 600bux for a whole house rn. granted I've been working a bit at it

[unique bane]

its a 200k ppl city like 8 km to center

[barren pewter]

not bad

[unique bane]

gf pays another 700$ u think I pay fully? hahawhawha

[barren pewter]

I was going to make a joke about needing to travel a day to see another human being

[unique bane]

cheap!

owning a house is best

[drifting rose]

I don't own it, but I'm paying next to nothing, and that suits me quite well. it's also on the countryside, and I don't have to speak to anyone but the neighbors. platonic ideal of what I wanted

[unique bane]

Ngl i wanna live in the countryside as well

[drifting rose]

it's nice here!

[unique bane]

10+ acres plz

[vital wyvern]

yep countryside gaming too strong to pass up

how is man talking in american units

stop it

[unique bane]

learned them bc other way around is harder

[drifting rose]

[vital wyvern]

is that supposed to be a joke 😒

1/640th of a square mile 🤪

[unique bane]

acre is 3/4 of a football field

[vital wyvern]

or the other easy way to look at it which is 4840 square yards

[unique bane]

xD

[drifting rose]

ermahgerd I need to travel like 6445 feet to get to work

[vital wyvern]

sanest system

[unique bane]

but basically this. wud be nice to own some goats etc

[vital wyvern]

oh yeah

[unique bane]

and plant some stuff

nerddream

[hardy merlin]

[unique bane]

Sounds like a paradize

love cats

[pure bear]

americans be like write that down write that down

they are going to create a new measure of area, like the area that one school shooter can cover with bodies or some shit

[unique bane]

so area*time

[pure bear]

how many killdozers does your car have

[unique bane]

fk we need a countrysidegaming club

[pure bear]

the ps5 is a really wild console

[tough jay]

I found the ps5 to be a rather tame update from previous gen, nothing wild about it, apart from the design.

Controller updates are nice but not groundbreaking, other then that it's mostly just a spec bump.

[pure bear]

i thought it was pretty strong on paper

but all it got was remasters and remakes

[tough jay]

For me it's just looking at a distance, being mostly pc only nowadays.

[maiden tulip]

Returnal is on pc tho

And most of those games you listed are on ps4 too

Like ghost of tsushi

And gt7

And ragnarok

I play these on ps4 pro

Bought it used (1 week old, dude was stupid and said he wanted an xbox instead???) for 300cad with 2 controllers and 2 games when spiderman ps4 released

But i can play on my tv with my wheel

Thats good enough

I dont need an expensive vr headset and an expensive console

I'd rather upgrade from my 9700k with spare money tbh

[pure bear]

https://tenor.com/view/monka-steer-monkas-steer-steer-beep-beep-beep-gif-24603947

[maiden tulip]

Or just save it lol i have a home to buy 😛

I'll pick up a ps5 used some day when they're cheap lol

Not here sadly

If i go on like a day trip to quebec city or something like that i may look for one

But here in my area

Forget it

Only one listed on kijiji locally is like 400usd

kijiji is like canadian craigslist

Facebook marketplace there's 5 listed locally

1 for 500cad

1 for 550cad

And 3 for like 650-700$ lol

Yeah 650cad is base price lol

For a new slim

I can just go to ebgames and buy one for that price xd

People are just dumb

They think an extra controller + a game means they can sell it for a brand new price

@flat frost stupid people basically

Not a priority for me rn anyways

It'd be a waste

[severe compass]

I wonder what the PS6 is going to look like, the PS5's popped collar look is soooo last season

[fringe salmon]

I'd guess it will still be a simple board with a beefy apu

[severe compass]

I believe Sony has already signed a deal with AMD for the PS6

Microsoft on the other hand is rumoured to be shopping around Intel
However that might just be a strategy in hopes that AMD lowers their offered price

[fringe salmon]

no it's just a false rumor

[severe compass]

Quin's got the inside scoop

[fringe salmon]

it's not inside scope it's just what their leaked documents showed for the timeline

and it's too late to consider intel now

[severe compass]

I think the big mistake was splitting the Xbox between the Series S and Series X, this introduced a big headache for developers apparently as whenever you made a game for the Xbox they would often make a game for the Xbox One, (Sometimes) Xbox One X, Xbox Series S, and Xbox Series X. Even if they skipped last gen they still had to port for two different sets of hardware

I forgor they did that, like what the fuck was the plan

Reminds me of how they tried to remove the used games market with the Xbox One

Supposedly Microsoft's next Xbox might focus on game streaming, but I really don't think that would work for a game console shipping world wide.

Is Xbox streaming like Stadia?

ew

I live in Oz, do it's really not an option to stream game. Even if the introduced a server there are many regional areas where latency will make the Xbox Stadia a failure

I suppose in those cases MS will have the Xbox next gen

You can still download, but latency just becomes an issue

Suppose that's true, and not gonna lie as a past Xbox fanboy
I hope it kills them

Wait MS recently announced they were going to allow more games on the Playstation didn't they? If they are giving up on real consoles might that be the reason why

[fringe salmon]

4 small games out of 5 or so they they kept away xD

[severe compass]

Just watch them switch around and suddenly The Elders Scrolls 6 is a streaming exclusive, basically denying 80% of the market access

Oh well, ES6 was probably going to suck anyway. Bethesda as far as I know still plans on using the Creation Engine, despite Star Citizen being so constrained and limited by the engine that it felt like a game that would've come out 15 years ago

[dreamy rain]

Intriguing

[proper basin]

Oh hey i have that collectors edition box, i love ori too much

Got both that one and the will of the wisps one that gamestop had

[severe compass]

I've only played Skyrim, but I could see the entire gaming market moving far beyond what Skyrim was. Just taking everything it did and doing it world's better

[proper basin]

And the limited edition hoodie they had going on before wotw launch, its the only xbox IP ive ever had a super strong attachment to

[severe compass]

Yet Bethesda's game design hasn't changed since. F4 was just F3 with engine upgrades and worse writing, writing that didn't hold a candle to New Vegas. Star Citizen is just F4 in space with DragonBorn powers instead of VATS and somehow even worse writing

[still spire]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5j4TsO8vngA

[dreamy rain]

Game looks fun

waiting for the xbox release

[maiden tulip]

lol

[vestal frost]

can you guys recommend apex fov - currently running 104, not sure if i should go higher

[worn crescent]

Higher fov = more awareness and you will eventually adapt BUT also higher cpu usage so it hits framerate

If you have a modern computer and are playing on competitive settings just crank it as high as you can stand

[still spire]

https://www.reddit.com/r/Helldivers/comments/1au08bp/state_of_the_playerbase/ Comments are rational, amazingly

This is one of the worst game launches in years lmao. Palworld had 2M+ players and actualyl used dedicated servers and managed to do far better, with a team 1/4th the size and 1/10th the budget.

[maiden tulip]

Its an enjoyable disaster

Also nico and i just kept our games open all day

Dick move but too bad arrowhead forgot to kick afk players and we want to play the game we paid for

[rapid bramble]

Technically we also played all day

Except for a trip to the store

[maiden tulip]

True

how dare we need groceries

[still spire]

[still spire]

Meanwhile, 450,000 spots available - PC was taking them all up earlier.

[maiden tulip]

I mean it also counts people in queue

I bet a lot of pc users are on this screen just waiting

It retries every 30 secs

[still spire]

Yeah it's a pretty awful experience, I loved Arrowhead with HD1. Definitely losing a lot of respect for this cock up.

[maiden tulip]

Magika was good too

[still spire]

Yeah

Very campy and fun

Magicka Vietnam

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cCFtiO5j97M

Classic

[nimble current]

I own HD2 but kinda holding off playing it more until the hype and server pressure dies down a bit

[still spire]

Smart idea

Matchmaking still doesn't work so it's mostly a solo game rihgt now

Can be very draining

[novel umbra]

is helldivers 2 good at least

been considering it

don't got anyone I would play it with tho atm

[maiden tulip]

You can join me and @rapid bramble

Also @nimble current ur welcome to join too

[maiden tulip]

For me its a duo game mainly xd

[maiden tulip]

Best coop game i've played with my husband in forever

He never plays anything else but esports and he's hooked on it

So im happy cuz i hate esports

[novel umbra]

huh

nice

idk what it really compares to

have not looked at gameplay tho

[fallow bronze]

you dont want to play the same game 1000 hours?

[novel umbra]

closest thing I thought of was orion dino horde of all things

[nimble current]

I enjoyed it

there's a fair few bugs and some performance issues for me but nothing gamebreaking so far

[novel umbra]

I mean what is it gameplay like

[nimble current]

combat is really frantic and visceral, its cool

the bug levels basically feel like the starship troopers film

it can be pretty hard at times especially further up

[rapid bramble]

Risk of rain 2

[novel umbra]

huh

yea I wasn't sure about progression

but that seems cool

[maiden tulip]

Yama if you want i can give you a 19% off code

For the game

[rapid bramble]

progression in helldivers is fairly easy

[novel umbra]

[maiden tulip]

If you want to buy it

[nimble current]

lots of friendly fire potential with the orbital/airstrikes so be careful with that

[novel umbra]

sounds like a plan

[maiden tulip]

I have it sitting around

Ill dm u

[nimble current]

its mostly third person gameplay but you can go first person for aiming

[novel umbra]

I mean as someone that played a ton of warframe and borderlands I don't feel too strong for either one as long as it is done well and works

[rapid bramble]

⬆️ ▶️ 🔽 🔽 🔽 go brr

[nimble current]

the combat is veery solid imo

with a full team its a total warzone

stalwart @ 1150rpm get some

got on my first evening

[novel umbra]

one of the weirder achievments I got in the last few days

actually got a weirder one but that one is kinda nswf

77p egg: eggwife absolutely is a game

[still spire]

Yeah I find people overuse Airstrikes

It's annoying

You don't need to be using them EVERY fight

[novel umbra]

avg edf experience

https://tenor.com/view/earth-defense-force-gif-15712563

[still spire]

Team killing is part of the HD experience, always has been. Having people only use air strikes and constantly TK however is obnoxious.

[novel umbra]

yea obv

I'd assume the maps are a bit more cramped than in EDF

with EDF you can just turn the entire map into a parking lot

[still spire]

They're a lot bigger than the first but people still insist on dropping a high AoE attack right in front of them instead of ahead of them

[novel umbra]

and it's like a few kilometer sized square or something

[nimble current]

yeah there's quite a bit of running

[novel umbra]

also edf is dead af in the west

[still spire]

Games performance is also strangely getting worse. Not like a memory leak, but I swear this patches, I actually had an almost lock up earlier, was quite strange.

[novel umbra]

and playing it solo is a lot less fun that multiplayer

• it is giga scuffed since it is japanese

[still spire]

Like the game froze then sped up like an emulator

[novel umbra]

lol

[nimble current]

wish there could be a bit more going on in between points of interest, but that might be more of a thing on higher difficulties

[novel umbra]

might be that they try to get back in sync with the host or something

[still spire]

Points of itnerests are such an annoying addition, the flavor text is so forgettable and what you find is useless 99% of times

[novel umbra]

(that actually is an issue in wf atm)

tickrate of the game is tied to host framerate

[still spire]

Yeah, I dunno, I also don't know why a 4090 on Medium settings needs to be 95% in use on a barren planet with no enemies on screen

But hey, here we are.

Only playing at 3440x1440 as well

[novel umbra]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DAaApsFNWXg

yes it is as scuffed as it sounds

[still spire]

DLSS and FrameGen would sure help out a lot. Game isn't even using FrameGen

I mean Raytracing*

lol

[novel umbra]

and you straight up do a lot more damage if the host has more fps

[novel umbra]

with some abilities at least

[still spire]

Yeah I haven't reallyp layed Wrframe in a long time but it was better than the experience we got in HD2.

Hey that's the same in HD2

lol

It uses the Autodesk Engine that Darktide / Vermintide 2 does

The host advantage is real

[novel umbra]

lol

[still spire]

The stronger your CPU, the more enemies spawn

[novel umbra]

I mean it is not host advantage in wf

[still spire]

The weaker, less

[novel umbra]

but yea

[still spire]

In this it can be heaven or hell

[novel umbra]

higher tickrate

[still spire]

Weaker CPU = easier game

[novel umbra]

meaning more enemies spawn

[still spire]

Stronger CPU = Harder

[novel umbra]

meaning you get resources quicker

[still spire]

All because no dedicated servers

[novel umbra]

higher tickrate also means you do more damage etc

[still spire]

Yeah

[novel umbra]

idk dedicated servers would fix it

but also making it fixed tickrate would

and then maybe avoid making a switch a host

(or a phone even)

I wish I was joking

but the ios version releases like tomorrow

[still spire]

Yeah

Did you see Quiet Shy is back?

As a Vtuber, of all things.

[novel umbra]

yea

[novel umbra]

considering it is mid 2000s

[orchid prism]

She's always been a Vtuber of sorts.

[still spire]

I guess, but

[orchid prism]

Just used a static image instead.

[novel umbra]

no?

[still spire]

Fair

She just used a voice

[novel umbra]

yae

she filmed herself tho

[still spire]

CAuse she can't actually speak Mansen.

😛

[orchid prism]

She had that cherub for ages before stopping, Yama.

[orchid prism]

I am... quite aware?

[novel umbra]

did she?

[orchid prism]

Yes.

[novel umbra]

I thought her later videos used the videos of herself

[still spire]

I am a little disappointed in her whole coomer bait, but hey it's the hustle. Makes money.

[orchid prism]

There it is. This was after she started that Warhammer side-channel. Started using it in her main videos as well before the purge.

[still spire]

I don't remember it at all

[novel umbra]

huh

never seen it

didn't watch her warhammer content either tho

[orchid prism]

smh not real fans

[novel umbra]

never claimed I was

[still spire]

I'm still shocked at DE Rebecca as taking over as head of the company. It's just such a weird transition from community manager.

[novel umbra]

what

[still spire]

Ya didn't know?

[novel umbra]

I thought she just was director of warframe

not head of the company

[still spire]

Same thing, Steve lets her run the show

[novel umbra]

very different thing

[still spire]

Warframe is their only real IP going

[novel umbra]

yes

[still spire]

I know Soulframe exists but cmon

[novel umbra]

steve is working on a different ip

that is like saying that a production manager in a factory is the head of the company

[still spire]

Well it's a big jump man, Community managers typically don't become DIRECTORS of the companies largest IP

It just seemed so random

[novel umbra]

well yea obv

[feral ferry]

Put some respect on Dark Sector

[still spire]

Dark Sector is cool and all but it doesn't really exist 😛

[feral ferry]

For Reb it kinda isn't? If you follow the company at all she's always coordinated with teams

Reb was an upcoming team lead for a long time in the making, she had all the necessary experience

With Steve going to lead Soulframe and now becoming CEO, Reb was the natural choice

And honestly from what I've seen, good choice cause the game seems to be actually better

[novel umbra]

deffo not the normal way tho

[feral ferry]

I don't see what's not normal

[novel umbra]

reb just had a pretty unique position for a community manager

[novel umbra]

got even more anime

[feral ferry]

Actually she wasn't entirely a CM

She was.. I think they gave her responsibility for liveops

Pretty sure she was responsible for coordinating with all the teams

Which is just the makings of a team lead

[novel umbra]

she was a CM primarily

and became liveops because she communicated what each team did with the community

which is uncommon

[orchid prism]

CM and figurehead alongside... whats her name

[feral ferry]

Indeed, which is makings of a team lead

[novel umbra]

?

[feral ferry]

I also doubt Rebs daily life changed much

[novel umbra]

well

[feral ferry]

She just makes more decisions but overall she prolly does the same thing she always did

[novel umbra]

prob has a lot more things to decide/influence now

[orchid prism]

Megan?

[feral ferry]

Megan is the new CM

[novel umbra]

ah

ye

megan is new cm

reb is old cm

[feral ferry]

Well Megan was always a CM

[still spire]

On a side note, MEgan and Rebb's cosplay together is A+.

[feral ferry]

Megan is just a new lead CM, taking Reb's position

[novel umbra]

seen the kars one?

also I am 100% certain rebb being director will make the game be more anime

[feral ferry]

I don't have any qualms with that

[still spire]

lol

Their Persona 5 cosplay. Peak. 😛

[feral ferry]

I just had a lot of problems with how grindy WF became

[still spire]

But yeah their JoJo stuff was good

[feral ferry]

Like yeah it's a F2P but it just became so damn stale

[still spire]

It's been out 10 years so yeah

[novel umbra]

actually more recent content got better than the plains/fortuna one

[still spire]

Most games tend to be

[novel umbra]

but yea, still somewhat stale to me

[feral ferry]

I hate all the separate game systems that they are forcibly throwing onto you

[novel umbra]

but I can return like once or twice a year and put in another hundred hours or so

[feral ferry]

Like I don't care if I miss out on some rare guns that I have to grind all the factions for

[novel umbra]

just be done with almost all content

[feral ferry]

But when they lock QUEST UNLOCKERS behind a DAMN FACTION SYSTEM

That pisses me off

[novel umbra]

[still spire]

Lmao dude that's like 2016 shit

[novel umbra]

which faction

[feral ferry]

That mech thing lol

[novel umbra]

most of them are pretty quick now

deimos standing is pretty quick

at least the required part

fuck getting seriglass shards

[feral ferry]

I just want to do the damn New War quest, I don't care for no mechs

Who thought mechs are needed

[novel umbra]

idk

but one of them does a lot of damage

[feral ferry]

It's just another weird gameplay system that looks out of place and nobody asked for

[novel umbra]

I see you have not seen the real grind issues

to max out kuva and tenet weapons you need 155 forma

[feral ferry]

Well I started the game just after they removed the old raids

And it felt honestly pretty damn chill to play

[novel umbra]

rip

[feral ferry]

But it just became more tedious over time, more gameplay systems I don't care for

[novel umbra]

you never got to experience the good systems

[feral ferry]

More harder time consuming grinds

[novel umbra]

like the stamina bar

[feral ferry]

What about wall running

[novel umbra]

new movement still has wall running

less jank tho

you don't get attached with a magnet anymore

no more coptering tho

[feral ferry]

Like, I like a lot of the systems they introduced lately

Love the little nemesis mechanic, the liches and whatever corpus ones are called

[novel umbra]

ngl

liches and tenets are kinda annoying

[feral ferry]

I shouldn't be supposed to know about Zariman considering I still haven't unlocked the New War quest but I do

[novel umbra]

in principle they are a decent mechanic

[feral ferry]

From what I heard it's cool

[novel umbra]

yea it is decent

circuit also is

but it has massive issues atm 💀

[feral ferry]

Oh yeah and I really like the little spaceship orbiter thingy

[novel umbra]

and I doubt they will be fixed

cause they only screw over vets

[feral ferry]

An amazing rework of the old archwing

[novel umbra]

railjack?

[feral ferry]

That whole spaceship system

Yeah yeah railjack

But tbf if feels they already forgot about railjack cause I don't remember hearing about any expansions to the system

Just another one of those medium sized grindwalls that you 100% and forget about

[novel umbra]

ambassador BP is a grindwall for sure

[feral ferry]

WF just feels so bloated

[novel umbra]

that is what 10 years of content does to a game

[feral ferry]

Yeah but I don't think games like World of Warcraft have that problem

They just add new quests and land, rather than WF which introduces completely new mechanics

WF's biggest mistake was imo their whole shtick of "this is cool" and then adding new mechanics that, frankly, nobody asked for and nobody really wanted

Just.. add in the Tau system and new planets to run missions in, as an extension to the old star chart

Don't diverge from core loop, they did, but I wish they didn't

[still spire]

WoW has it even worse lmao

[novel umbra]

yea you just skip all old content

[novel umbra]

that would be a lot of effort for a very slight change tbh

having like 4+ new tilesets

just for starchart missions

[feral ferry]

Well you place story quests there

Just like in the original star chart

[novel umbra]

"just double the content of the game that you built over years"

[feral ferry]

Well if we take the breakoff point of around what was it, 2017 for plains of eidolon?

Considering what content has been added since then, I'd rather exchange 60% of their efforts in those 7 years for a new star system

[novel umbra]

even then

new starchart missions would be very boring at the start

until they populate it with actual content

[feral ferry]

I like some of the things they did, railjack and archwing, liches. And others are just.. content that nobody asked for and nobody wanted lol

Hopped into WT's wiki

Like, this is just too much to keep track of

Oh in 20 mins I have to do some new eidolon hunt

[novel umbra]

why would you need to keep track

[feral ferry]

In 40 I have to go somewhere else and fight a cambion wyrm or whatever it's called

[novel umbra]

what

[feral ferry]

Like, I don't give a shit lol

[novel umbra]

cambion drift states are purely visual

[feral ferry]

Aren't you able to fight the massive ass wyrm thing as a world boss

[novel umbra]

plains, orb vallis and deimos times only matter if you need to farm specific stuff

[novel umbra]

you are able to do that any time

literally only visual changes

rewards are the same

[feral ferry]

Eh, I guess so then

[novel umbra]

ig some mission variance, not like it matters

earth forests only matter for like one or two things iirc

[feral ferry]

The forest thing is like beyond the point, that one's fine

[novel umbra]

and zariman invaders are straight up irrelevant unles you do endurance runs

[feral ferry]

I just have problems with PoE, Orb Vallis and Cambion Drift

[novel umbra]

at which point wtf are you doing with your life

[novel umbra]

aggreed

the day/night cycle is not the issue tho

[feral ferry]

Look I just want a new star chart

[novel umbra]

a new star chart would not solve anything tho

[feral ferry]

I played the pre-2017 WF a fuck ton, and since then it only alienated me with new systems I had no interest in

Like, ffs, this is not cool, this is just corny and cringe

https://tenor.com/view/warframe-gif-19691388

If I wanted mechs I'd go play some gundam

[novel umbra]

idk how a new starchard would fix anything still

we get new tilesets all the time

[feral ferry]

We could diverge from just the base 4 factions

New system, new cool factions

[novel umbra]

wdym

we already did

used to be 2/3

[feral ferry]

Well you have 3, then they expanded Sentient a bit

[novel umbra]

if you add more factions for the sake of new factions then we already got more

if you add more factions for more variance in damage types etc it will just make damage even more complicated

[novel umbra]

they expanded all factions a ton

[feral ferry]

Nah I just want a thematic/stylistic change

Not that you are fighting a variant of Grineer or Corpus all the time

But something new

[novel umbra]

cause gas city and corpus planet surface is the same

"copus outpost" whatever it is called

I'd want reworks old tilesets instead

grineer asteroid is so old

and has giga fucked waypoints in some rooms

the old infested tilesets are all a mess

[still spire]

Ok but we can all agree "We Lift Together" slaps right?

[novel umbra]

yea but post narmer fortuna sucks

[still spire]

[feral ferry]

Wdym with that

[novel umbra]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-EtOAaK19bA

[feral ferry]

Ah this is well after I lost interest in WF

Prolly heard it once and erased it from my mind

[novel umbra]

when will we receive a new frame that is neither useless or absolutely busted

(and maybe a rework of mag to make her less jank)

[feral ferry]

Aren't they out of ideas by now?

[novel umbra]

wdym

[feral ferry]

50+ WF's, you are at that point struggling to find unique ideas for what 4 abilities a frame can do

Emphasis on unique

[novel umbra]

not even talking about unique

but new frames are either bad, lackluster or stupidly strong

few are just decent

qorvex is busted, dagath is lackluster, kullervo is the one decent one recently

citrine is pretty strong until you do endurance runs, then she is useless

all of them have been unique btw

[feral ferry]

Those names do kinda suck

[novel umbra]

because "volt" was a good name

[feral ferry]

how did you know I main volt

[novel umbra]

you got a lot of Vs in your name

[feral ferry]

Tbf I used to run like 3 frames, Rhino Loki n Volt

Some Titania occasionally

[novel umbra]

don't even get me started on sevagoth or lavos

[novel umbra]

you used to run 2 extremely boring frames 🤝

congrats

[feral ferry]

Those are the frames I like playing

[novel umbra]

doesn't make them less boring

inaros with roar subsumed is a better rhino in most cases

with just 2 abilities

[feral ferry]

Ah yeah I forgot about Inaros

[novel umbra]

loki is boring because you usually just do invis

or cc

in a game with better cc

where cc is already regarded as kinda useless

why should anyone cc if you can just nuke

mag with this for example

74k damage exergis

with two shots

crits don't matter because magnetize works in stupid ways

still is strong tho

[feral ferry]

Inaros with my fav melee Hirudo was always a star chart wiper, but doesn't scale at all to high level areas

[novel umbra]

also got no range

[feral ferry]

Even if I had like 6k HP it'd always just die at like 100+ with 2 shots or so

[novel umbra]

build issue

[feral ferry]

And no I don't run arcanes really cause I don't have any

[novel umbra]

my inaros can tank steel path with 0 issues

[feral ferry]

My sole arcane was a twitch drop or someshit like that lol

[novel umbra]

good for you

arcanes are easier to get than ever

don't need to do any eidolons anymore

[feral ferry]

Rank 0 arcane energize isn't that useful

[novel umbra]

• prices on the more expensive ones went down

[novel umbra]

already is an improvement

[feral ferry]

Ah yeah it wasn't a twitch drop, it was from scarlet spear

[still spire]

Arcane helmets are boss though. 😛

[novel umbra]

but still useless on inaros tho

[novel umbra]

too bad all but 1 are kinda useless

and that 1 is for a frame that is extremely out of meta

[feral ferry]

Again my Inaros was already not a meta build in 2017

People ran some corrupt mods and arcanes, which I didn't and still don't have lol

[novel umbra]

a maxed arcane grace costs 500p

[feral ferry]

But Inaros is fun for star chart which is what I used to play in usually

[novel umbra]

but even a 4/5 makes inaros basically unkillable

which costs half that

for star chart inaros is pretty meh anyways

since he only gets unkillable

and doesn't really have anythign useful otherwise in his kit

if I just want unkillable for starchart I can run basically any frame nowadays

[feral ferry]

Meta sure has changed

[novel umbra]

not really

starchart was already stupid easy back when raids were a thing

but most frames got some kind of damage reduction/avoidance nowadays

and the ones that don't typically have abilites that just nuke the enemies there

[feral ferry]

Tbf my builds were just good enough for doing sorties which is all I was really interested in

Basically just rivens

Now that they introduced liches my builds are just getting annihilated, way too strong for what is it, level 120?

[novel umbra]

liches are funny anyways

[novel umbra]

problem with liches is how they take damage

there is a new system for things like liches

which makes them incredibly tanky

and they can just grab you if you get to close

if you wanna do them very meta you give them a slow of like 80%

strip their armor

and apply bansee critpoints

to oneshot them

[still spire]

I hit MR25 I think, and last time I really played was like 2019 or 2020, dunno

[novel umbra]

I am MR32

[feral ferry]

Ah yeah after all my main frames just get wiped I did pull out my old banshee prime

Which tbf with sonar and ignis did take it down eventually after like a 20 minute fight

Sold that lich for like 500p later though cause it had a good gun and ephemera on it

I think my MR is still like 17 or so

Ah, MR16

[novel umbra]

I had a 59% damage roll on my tonkor

directly from a lich

[feral ferry]

Same with mine

But I think the particular damage type wasn't good

Maybe magnetic or radiation

Dunno which gun it was, one of the lich ones

[still spire]

It goes above 30 these days?

Shit

lol

[feral ferry]

It goes way above 30 nowadays

[still spire]

30 was supposed to be top

Weird

[feral ferry]

There's like 40 now right?

[novel umbra]

you can't reach them

founders can get 34

everyone else can get 33

[feral ferry]

Is Exca Prime even useful nowadays

[novel umbra]

post 30 you barely get anything tho

[novel umbra]

no

I mean excal in general is like just good for clearing starchart

[feral ferry]

Not as fun as Volt

Volt Prime is just my fun frame, shields and SPEEED

[novel umbra]

exalted blade is SOOOO much better for starchart

basically does not need mods

a good volt needs a lot of modding

[feral ferry]

I think my Volt was a duration build

[novel umbra]

yea it is volt

[feral ferry]

30+ second speed or so

[novel umbra]

but you need like 200+ %

[feral ferry]

Tbf Volt always seemed for me like a superefficient frame

Shields and speed didn't take much energy to cast

Duration is also pretty long

[novel umbra]

yea but in the end all you really do is either just nuke with the 4

or do shock trooper + shields for damage buff

[feral ferry]

Shock Trooper?

[novel umbra]

free shock damage

as an augment

[feral ferry]

Is that some new augment

[novel umbra]

cutting edge new

[feral ferry]

Prolly wasn't meta when I played

[novel umbra]

got a buff in 2019 but was already kinda meta before

btw

you don't know about archon shards yet

they are kinda funny

[feral ferry]

I've heard, I think

Endgame currency for good items innit?

[novel umbra]

no

it's like

kinda like arcanes

but there are only 3/6 variants

both in a stronger and weaker version

which can give you 6 effects you can choose from

and you can equip 5 per frame

[feral ferry]

... sure

I love powercreep

[novel umbra]

eh

mostly just buffs frames that were stuffling to be meta

only one that was already meta with a massive buff was saryn

because she can do full armor strip again

(but also her sobek build is viable again)

just the base 3 ones were already kinda stupid

and the combined ones are just kinda wild

[feral ferry]

Sure, that seems perfectly fine

[novel umbra]

I mean it is endgame improvements

[feral ferry]

You know I thought about touching WF but just thinking of the grindwall puts me off

I seriously don't like grindwalls

[novel umbra]

wouldn't be rewarding without grind

[feral ferry]

Not fun either

[novel umbra]

it is to me

Not scaling could be nothing makes it faster

If they have a single bottle neck it could take weeks to recode to make that scale

Dual core CPUs are like 30 years old and we still have tons of shit that are limited by single thread performance because of how difficult it can be to thread things

[still spire]

Yeah but I mean, here's my thing

8 years they've soley worked on this game, and none others, with 100+ man team and Sony helping in the wings.

They maintain no other games, and are not developing any other games.

These issues are incredibly amateurish.

Not a studio that has been releasing games for almost two decades

I wonder how noticeable the difference of a ps4 version of a game on a ps5 is to a sp5 version of a game

[fringe salmon]

depends on how much they change for the ps5 version

[novel umbra]

but should that not be similar if you play the ps4 version on a ps5

or is the texture loading etc that dramatically faster

[fringe salmon]

yeah and that needs to be used in code its not an automatic loading thing so a ps4 version wouldnt be able to use that

[fallow bronze]

And you know.. An ssd. That alone is already a huge upgrade

[fringe salmon]

yeah if it was just a ssd the loading would be mostly the same for ps4 version on it vs native versions

Stupid drama youtubers are annoying: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWwRpLsNh2s
So basically nexus mods removed a mod that looked like the screenshot I posted.

Jumping to assumptions that it's about not being allowed to make mods that remove content warnings, in reality it's really just about a flame baitting mod.

what Nexus Mods had to say on the matter in a different mod that does the same thing:

"Edit from a Nexus Mods admin: if you're wondering why this one is ok and the last one was not, the last one was deliberate rage bait in how it was written and presented, this one is not. We do not have a problem with this mod, only in the deliberate goading of others which turns the comments sections into a cesspit. We have no wish to spend our time playing "whack the neo-nazis and people calling for the death of entire groups of people for X dumb reasons" because people can't play nice."

I wish people were a little less politicized about these things, understanding the nuance of a mod just removing a disclaimer in a really offensive way, vs not being allowed to remove disclaimers.

2B is gonna be the most crossovered character in media soon

Yeah I was doing some level 6 missions solo earlier and they spawned 2 Bile titans and 2 chargers at the same time.

I was like "Come the fuck on"

I know the game doesn't scale but jesus

Meanwhile, tens of thousands of people unable to play are getting shit on for leaving negative reviews, for not being "understanding".

Look at how the community supports MTX 😛

Also this guy talks about 10+ hours (Or so) likely ignoring that you got like 300 in the free battle pass, 500 in the premium.

And some of those you need to claim from the battlepass to advance to weapons

Regardless, you're talking about 10-12 hours, optimum farming maybe, for a 10$ battlepass. It's a pretty poor exchange rate for your time, and it's closer to 20-25 like the guy in the video says for most people.

And that's if RNG favors you, because you could do 10 missions in a row and not find any SC, and the most you can find per mission is like 10...of the 1000 you need.

Missions take 15-40 minutes.

and people are vehemently defending that on reddit

Yes

I mean they already sell cosmetic MTX, couldn't you know, weapons just be free with updates?
