ouch
If PS5 will ever get in stock long enough to upgrade i plan on investing more time in it but damn its hard to snag one
I use a controller even on the PC so it wont be much to adjust thankfully
true with everyone buying em plus the scalppers
new generation problem
Dear god I’m disappointed with this
I’m just gonna get syscor then leave,no comms,no manhunt,no grind
Atleast until the new mode comes out
Maybeeee buy Survival and have some fun
Yea bit of a kick in the D from aasive not giving us anything for a few months
Not even activision does that with cod
Actually there is content coming, they specifically mention Apparel Events and Title Updates.
neat
Minor Title Updates
basically no actual content 😪
im going back to div1,anyone wanna join?
i would but i’m on xbox 😔
'ight i have some trouble
so, tried to redownload div1,but everytime i do so,it directs me to steam
and i cant find out how can i unlink my uplay from steam
any solutions?
buy it on uplay next time instead of steam
irony: gamers who pre-order claim they're doing so to support the devs, only to undercut that support when they order/buy the games from 3rd parties like steam.
Massive amount of preorders=devs get lazy cuz they got the cash=low quality products
accurate with most devs theses days
makes sense tho cuz at the end of the day it’s just business n business is about that dough
Yeah.. there is a reason we haven't heard anything about it since. Its just not that great.
paul ws anderson is the new uwe boll
new Tom Clancy movie look good ngl
yea drops in april
As someone who's sat through both versions of Bloodrayne 3, Anderson is not even in the same league as Uwe.
uwe no longer makes movies. PA has taken his place for vg movies is what I'm saying. Neither of them have made anything good. And PA never directed Bloodrayne
You read my comment wrong.
i wasn't trying to compare the two, just saying that b/c uwe doesn't make vg movies anyone more, PA has become the go to director for it whenever there's money to burn for that kind of movie.
Came from the same director who let his wife become the main actress,and ignored every other character in a video game movie before thissss
i knew that anderson is a fuckup but not one so bad that literally no word would reach me of the movie after it’s reveal until three months after it’s release
Any good movie on Netflix or Amazon prime?
not sure if its on any streaming, but check out The Man from Nowhere, its a korean film. After watching it, u'll never see another action film the same way
Sounds promising @wispy solstice will see if it's streaming
sounds cap considering it’s korean
what does that matter if its in korean? @dense parcel
maybe u should also go see it first b4 judging
nada i just find their movies meh
sure i’ll watch it later today
Why is assassin's creed acting and mocap so cringy?
Bad writers with bad action coordinators.
Im just glad it had the actors it did, or else I think it would have flopped a lot harder. Thats why when I seen the movie, i gave it 3/5 stars. It wasnt terrible, but it sure wasnt great either.
Also, The Man from Nowhere was a good flick @dense parcel, but im a sucker for those type of movies since I was a kid. If im not watching anime im usually watching Hi-Yah! (its a station on Roku) and it has all types of Wire-Fu and action flicks from across the ocean.
aight guess i’ll check it out
I meant the game mocap and acting are cringy, not the movie
Oh, my bad. Yeah game mocaps can get to be a mixed bag in that front. Depending on what genre its based in can also effect the quality, or at least what is to be expected. You look at more story focused games like The Last of Us or Uncharted for example, and they can be quite impressive but then compared to more open world games like Division and you quickly see it start to show how developers go for quantity animations over quality. Also rigging characters can be a major pain in the ass (i have some experience in the field) as it fucking sucks ass lol
well yeah, I agree that open world designs kind of forces devs into quantity over quality. But honestly, div 2 mocap is not bad at all, and I feel like mocap and acting for me is like a threshold-- it just has to be not too cheesy. I appreciate great acting as in The Last of Us, but I don't expect it as I suspect it's hard and budget intensive.
Assassins creed tho is unfortunately at another level, I sometimes honestly wonder if they don't make the writing, the acting, and the in-game movements janky on purpose just to make it cringy... as if they expect people to have fun because of how stupid the writing can get
we call that "drama", the actors have to be "dramatic"
idk about calling it drama. There are many games with lots of good acting like TLOS as suggested by @shy vine and also in games with a light and fun script, there is no need to make forced voices... and also to make the characters look "unnatural" for some reason, which would completely be fine if you're trying to convey a message, but that's not the case with Assasin's Creed's cheesy "oh please I got locked into my own room can you get me out of here" scenes
Hopefully it will go on sale soon afterwards. I enjoyed the last two games.
Ah I bought the gold edition a month or so ago for 50
23rd not bad cuz it's closer to the 1st of april
Yeah I missed that sale
Yea was on stadia
Makes sense buying a online only game on a platform that I need to be online to play so yeet
@shy vine i’m thinking about canceling my pre order for outriders n getting ac valhalla u think i should or nah
i’m still debating
Eh, im not the right person to ask that to be honest. I put about 20 hours into Valhalla and havent touched it in weeks. Way too bland for me.
Not to mention they keep breaking the damn thing with updates
you should never pre order anything
What led me to finally stop playing it was when they had an issue with some side quest (or a few i think it was) not showing the characters model actually talking when they should have, so they pushed an update to fix it and cause all convo's to do it. Right before that though the Yule event broke the performance and introduced a slew of bugs too
i rarely do
so main missions n minus the graphic glitches n whatnot what do u rate it
3/5
Story is pretty terrible imo, the combat feels worse than the previous two games, the armor and weapon are pretty boring, you upgrade them and they get more Gold and too flashy (like a Final Fantasy game would look like)
I ended up watching lets play videos to finish the story from where I left off and it didnt get interesting until the final chapter
the world though is beautiful
really nice looking hills, rivers, villages, etc
bet i’ll cop it for $60 since it’s not on sale atm
I would recommend getting it on sale
i’ll get outriders later down the road
I enjoyed the Outriders demo but im going to wait until after it releases due to how almost every game recently has been having bad launches
debating on sekiro / aot2 or immortal fenyx
Sekiro is amazing
worth 60?
Im terrible at Souls style games but I beat that twice and would happily do it again
how bout aot 2
With how long its been out i wouldnt pay full price, try and find it cheaper if you can
AOT2 I havent got around to buying it yet, but if its anything like AOT1 im sure i will love it
damn u not making this easy lol
Fenyx I heard is fun, its basicly smashing Odyssey and Breath of the Wild together.
The demo was enjoyable
would u buy that over valhalla?
Yup
bet
Try its demo out
ima get valhalla
i did before it came out
its pretty enjoyable and the Zeus/Prometheus banter is entertaining
No problem, but like i said with Valhalla, if you want it by all means get it, its just I have had too many issues on PC with it to recommend it at near/full price
Valhalla is good, but I’ve had issues on Xbox as well. Stopped playing for a week or so.
They ever fix the lip sync issue, Tim?
Kind of. Still notice a little bit. Not a bother like the arrow glitch was
That was so bad
Ah, and yeah that arrow glitch was frustrating
does valhalla have the og hidden blade
I play with the subtitles on though and listen to podcasts.
Eivor(sp?) uses it like a dagger, she/he isnt an assassin
oh ok cool
You can turn on an option to do one hit stealth kills with it, or unlock a talent that allows a QTE that allows a one hit kill.
i heard valhalla u can duel weild as well 🤔
I don’t know if they fixed the glitch though that causes that to not occur
Heavy weapons once you unlock to talent for it
Dual spears are cool
I used the options route for instant kills to avoid the glitch lol
i’ll get the season pass for it later
Plus the size of the blade, its just stupid in my eyes that it wouldnt kill someone after being jabbed in the neck by that thing, its blade is HUGE lol
i still gotta beat orgins n syndicate lol
but ty @shy vine gonna play some warzone then ima hop on valhalla
Yep, no problem. Have fun!
I liked Syndicate. It’s a favorite of mine
same
i like the jtr dlc
plus the grappling hook
I enjoyed the twins, but for me the best thing that game had going was the gangs (reminded me of AC2) and the Ripper DLC
I never got the dlc for it. I did hear good things though
The Ripper was so well done, i loved it
Needed a better name than rooks though
Yeah 😅
does valhalla have the merc system from odyssey
I still need to do the dlc from AC 3
Its not one for one, but it has a similar system as Odyssey
No mercs per se
Not a hired person to take you out, but there are people to hunt down
n werid outta all the ac games i only finished revelations, bloodlines n odyssey
Think more Phylakes from Origins than the Mercs in Odyssey
Yes
i hate orgins tho shit reminds me of dark souls
You do have an option at the start of the game so they wont actively hunt you, which I chose to not have them hunt me all the time.
bet
Its nice they give the player the choice though
Yep
Ah my favorite AC 😋
Lol
yea n only one with co op
Im in the minority but it to me was the best of the Old School AC titles
3 has a place in my heart because of the setting. Love the historical aspect, but Black Flag though.
AC4 was odd for me.. i loved it, but for being a pirate sim and not for it being an AC game lol
Ship combat was so damn fun
i heard next ac we going to japan
I thought of it as a sim within a sim
Heard the same
I have Ghost of Tsushima for that already lol
n i hope one day ac will go back to it’s roots
ac hasn’t been the same since orgins
For me it was AC3, when they killed Desmond, the series took a big hit
altari would be upset if he saw how his legacy is rn
Origins really helped but they should have stuck with Bayak, man that was a very well written character
Id happily play more games with him in it
I would love a Bayek sequel
nah rogue .. the game u play as a templar
Shay was good too
never played rogue ngl seems like a kick in the D
I just really enjoyed the actor that did Bayek, he was an amazing pick for that role.
I thought Rogue was just a filler game before Unity came out that fall
but ac really should stop with all these new chars... stick with one
Yeah, Rogue was a good game too, but overshadowed due to the odd way they pushed those two games out
it’s hard to get attached to em
I played it, but it went too quick, I thought of it as another Black Flag
True
y’all been playing cp lately tho 😼
I think that if they remade that game. With a bit more storyline it’d be great
Yeah Shay was a fun perspective to play from for sure
and I havent been playing CP lately, waiting for the next major patch
Remake AC1 with Unity's upgrades and i would be very much interested in playing through it again.
Im afraid they would try to RPG it and mess it up too much
ah i been trying to get around to playing the main missions but been watching bleach n on games like division 2 n now that i just got valhalla i’ll prob play cp later down the road
A couple years ago I did a new run through of the old games. Combat was tough to remember.
You can get pretty brutal in Valhalla
On a final kill animation yeah
One thing it did great was how you can really put the hurt on people with its kill animations
Depends on the weapon, but each varies
^
It’s a good game, just iron out the bugs
true same with cp
I still havent got around to starting it again, been catching up on other shows still. 😅
Yeah Ill definitely come back to Valhalla later. Just because I enjoy the series too much
i try to stick with 1 anime especially if it’s a long one at a time
I’m gonna finish it also, just need time
anyone miss the multiplayer days in ac
Recently started back playing Dying Light because somehow, as much as I enjoyed it, i never actually finished the game lol
good game ^
Im a sucker for parkour games 😅 Add zombies and its an instant like from me
I didn’t XB Live until a couple years ago so can’t comment on that
u know they making 2
Yup!
I use melee more than guns tbh 😅 One thing I do hope is they refine the combat just a touch.
good game tho best parkour in a game since mirrors edge
True, those two games are so fun to just run around in and ignore objectives and stuff. Just a fun world to play in
what u up too rn
About to hop back into Dying Light to rescue Jade.
Took a break to eat and watch some Neebs 😛
The one with M. Jordan? Probably will
It looks good.
yea
Neebs Gaming is hilarious man
ima see it as well despite it looking like ur typical cliche revenge movie
Ever heard of Battlefield Friends?
nope
are u getting 6?
Missing out on some really good laughs
And yeah I will aslong as it doesnt end up like 5
same
5 was such a huge dissapointment
I still play it with my clan, but its hard to enjoy like i did with BF1 and 4
I actually enjoyed Hardline too, dont find many people who liked it lol
i’d rather have hardline 2 or something then another ww2 shooters
yea i like hardline
Oof Hardline
it was different n had some fun modes
I liked the OG battlefield 1&2. So damn good
Yeah, and I agree Tim 1942 even today is the best in my eyes
never played that
Still cant believe BF5 butchered Wake.. its like.. how do you screw that up so bad?!
oldest bf i played was bad company 2
Bad company 1&2 were good also loved those
y’all into far cry series?
BC really needs a part 3
n bf3 prob my favorite
I still got to finish FC5, got the sister to finish off still
I heard from a friend they’re thinking of doing that
some tdm on canals with the score too 500 was fun or some metro on conquest
I really hope they do, fans have been begging for it for years now
I need a finish for that story
Time to save a chick and slay some zombies, fun talking peeps. Until next time!
Later
later n have fun
what u up too?
Not much. Scanning discord and mobile games
what mobile games u play
a bit of cod mobile, pascalswager genshin impact, , black desert mobile n a few others
Is the cod mobile good?
Ok. Was thinking of trying it
yea u can also grind for camos n stuff like diamond n gold etc similar to console cod
all for free as well
Ok, cool. I like free.
Oh yeah. Been there
depends on the game ig
try pascalswager as well it’s basically dark souls but on mobile
I’ll look into that also
Never got into roblox myself, or Minecraft. My nephew loves it though.
yea my niece likes it
i like minecraft just sucked at building
i hate how i can’t skip cute scenes in valhalla
gonna be a long game
n cool only the pc version of wdl is getting online delayed consoles still getting it tomorrow well hopefully
tho this other mode for online not coming till the 23
Damn vahalla fun ngl been roaming around collecting gear n abilities n trying to rank up
I'm loving the combat
Killed a legendary animal earlier
I need to get back into Valhalla at some point
so i tried Outriders last night. anyone have any thoughts or opinions that played the demo?
Controlling movement and such felt like a trip to be honest
i loved how the dodge and roadie run felt but the aiming and gunplay felt...loose? maybe accuracy and such are directly tied to gun stats but i didn't feel accurate at all
Yeah that's exactly how i can describe how i can describe outriders
The gunplay, movement, and cover to cover stuff just incredibly loose
yeah definitely i'm glad it's not just me haha
I still enjoyed it for what it was though
not gonna lie, the very first gun that dropped for me made enemies explode on death. it was awesome
I hope it succeeds totally not saying this because of my PTSD woth Warframe haha
One of my guns ricochets bullets to nearby enemies when i shoot at low health enemies
i'm just a freakin' sucker for gettin in on looter shooters early, getting those cool rare items that eventually aren't available etc
the FOMO is real lol
I'm just way into looter shooters in general
true that ^
Because it can be fun to goof around with friends
i grew up on that sweet sweet diablo 2 loot and i just love these types of games
The ones i am currently playing are Borderlands 3 with because i bought 2 of them copies with some christmas money and destiny 2 with another group of friends
Well im getting into D2 to be exact
U should it's fun game
I dreamt about The Division again last night
there was one collectible left that i didn’t have on the left side of the map and i couldn’t get it cus the content was too hard or i needed a team or whatever, I think that was because i’ve been thinking about the secret mission
Which one
the one in West Side Piers
is there more than one?
also collectibles i already had still showed up on the map a bit greyed out when you zoomed in
and there was this like sewer complex or underground drainage ditch or whatever with a bunch of phone calls on a linear path, left by Keener
and i think that’s cus there are Keener phone calls in WSP too
do i buy a drawing tablet or do i buy other dumb shit i dont need
the drawing tablet perhaps 🤔
you are gonna be the first to get my shit-tier drawings, sky.
coming on the 11th
yeet
I wish the ubi launcher had a gifting option
Back during christmas i said to a friend of mine if they made a really dumb shitpost i would buy them div2 with wony on christmas but there was no option to gift people so now i have to wait for him to get it on his own
idk how venmoing money for someone to get a game doesnt work but aight
put the cash in an envelope and send it to him
Shit you right
You got into drawing?
Been into drawing, took some drawing classes a while ago
@amber horizon Digital drawing or traditional? (Or both?)
The classes were traditional, but i've been watching a ton of drawing streamers
Watch Drawfee?
a ton, not just one
Context:North America censored the part where the bad guys drugged the main character in a Japanese comic due to drug laws,but it caused an unexpected......side effect
yo
what's the most efficient way to farm (activity, difficulty, # of directives, solo vs group, etc)?
farm what?
if you have access to friends, a group
Targeted loot OR Lincoln heroic 5 directives all day
also, not being on discord helps
Use the time you used asking questions and just do it
alot more enjoyment and you learn faster then trying to understand someone elses methods
except I can leave a question here while I work and come back when I have 1 free min?
what's special about lincoln?
Four bosses. Lots of loot drops.
wtf I'm in #off-topic I just noticed that XD
so summit/targeted district or mission/lincoln, any of those in heroic, 5 directives
@shy vine could you add me on discord or send me a link to your discord server? I can’t send a message to you.
Yeah I hear you, I just wanted to learn the big picture for when I don't have any specific in mind
Lit just got the hidden blade in vahalla
Fun going around 1 hit killing people
Currently power 19 n killing people that's 280
Let's keep IRL politics out of here. It's a nice place, let's not ruin it.
its not even politics,its just ironic
but yeah,sounds about right
what does nbn stand for?
National Broadband Network. It's kinda an in-joke to anyone who was around during the time it was brought in that I'd use the word.
basically it's the "new" internet infrastructure in Aus, fibre-optic related.
Mildly interesting: i just saw a rainbow and a chinook
@lethal plank so since u been taking a break from D2 what game u been playing
FF14 and remnant from the ashes mainly 😄
iTs StIlL wEaKeR tHaN tHe Ay FoUrTeEn,RaM dOeSnT mAtTeR
not bad games
yea that beast has 18 gigs of ram
a bit of a overkill for a phone
not a huge rgb type guy
Right!
hi
It just has the logo on the towel,not actual rgb
oh aight
damn bosses in valhalla hard asf
reminds me of dark souls
tho i am level 45 trynna kill a level 90 boss
Reminds me of when I try to do Tidal basin with 25 gear score short
yea tidal a kick in the D early game
anything with a timer is difficult early game
the new R6S animated short is just comical
guards that couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn and stop to gloat when they have the perp at gunpoint
🔫you must consoom memes
@shy vine how u doing
not too shabby
they hate everything
@shy vine u been playing anything good or watching anything good 🤔
Caught up on "So Im a Spider, So what?" earlier. Keeps getting better with every episode. As far as games, not really much new, just been playing Div 2 on the PS4 since the PC version is broke for me from the latest patch.
Got Valheim but havent tried it yet, a friend was wanting to try it together so im waiting until they msg me before I dive into it.
wym what happened to the pc version
seems like a fun game
The latest patch completely broke my game, crashes regardless of any fixes. After 12.1 I had issue with just overlays, so turning them off was the easy fix to play, but since Season 5 was pushed out it refuses to run regardless of the various troubleshooting Iv done. So im shelving it for now and playing my PS4 version until the next update to see if it stabilizes the game for me.
Benefit of owning it on multiple platforms 🙂
true hopefully the pc version gets fixed
I might end up just stop playing the PC version truthfully. Iv set aside some money to try and snag a PS5, so if I am able to do that I'll just stick with it over the PC version. Less of a headache for me.
Only reason I dont play the PS4 version anymore was due to the 30fps cap. Thats obviously not an issue with the PS5 version 🙂
i’d hate that
Some games i dont mind playing at 30fps, but driving and shooters I cant stand it. Especially when I play at 100+ fps on PC
Ah I meant starting over
I'd retire from division 2 before I would buy it on a different platform
I don't mind 30 or 60 fps as I'm used to it over the years
I'd just hate starting completely over
Hitman professional difficulty try hard here,can relate
-mom can we have flying drone?
-we already have flying drone at home
Flying drone at home:
just wanna bring up how excited the entire DL community is about the new teaser they showed us for DL 2
What was the teaser?
Cuz it's prob shit n cosmetics
DL?
Im assuming they mean Dying Light... about the only thing I can think of anyway.
Ah kk. I played that on ps4 a while back and got stacked. After that i found there was very little to do
Its really good "dumb fun" for solo play, but its best with coop imo. I just recently got around to finishing it on PC because the person I played coop with stopped playing months ago, so I finished it solo, which was much less enjoyable.
I mostly enjoyed the sheer panic from one of us messing up causing a situation to go really wrong. Made for really great laughs.
Hopefully they build upon the coop experience in the sequel.
ah i enjoyed DL solo especially at night
For a proof of concept build, it holds promise. Hopefully they stick with it and turn it into a fun game.
Another great game is Mass Effect...and now it's coming out in 4k
And just got outriders
Siege is having a free week
With my luck, i'll still get matched with streamers & people who play 25/7
siege also did a 17 gig update for the new season, which includes one new operator, one new gun, some changes to border and a bunch of cosmetics. 17 gigs.
also the new operator is straight up a fuckin criminal, shameful
i mean, alot of them are criminal adjacent, only kept safe from their affiliation with rainbow
even some of the most straight-laced ones, like Thatcher, have done things outside the law, like, IDK, EMP blasts?
if you mean the likes of Smoke, the original Six says “ignore all laws and regulations” or something along those lines so they have some kind of authority to cross the line, even if that is dodgy
but they’re all at least actual police or military members. Flores is an actual thief and public menace
like... arrest the fucker. literally your job
What better way to get into a criminal's "headspace" than to have a criminal work for you?
i sincerely doubt that Flores has the training required to handle a hostage situation or a bomb threat
and Rainbow doesn’t fight common criminals, they fight terrorists
he graduated with a military engineering degree from argentina's national military college
he has the training required to handle a bomb threat, atleast
well then why couldn’t we have Argentinian special operatives then?
'guess none of them were special enough to be scouted by harry
Harry’s the ruddy “special” one...
Also, Ash made a deal with Flores, giving him asylum in the states in exchange for evidence against crime lords
so he's an FBI asset who is being trained by rainbow
shouldn’t he be in protective custody then? and not risking his neck fighting
...No?
He was given a "get out of jail free" card by giving up incriminating evidence of the crime lords of argentina, went to the states, and was scouted by rainbow.
Dunno what you've got against the guy. Like you said, Rainbow "Ignores all laws and regulations", so now that he's quit heisting, he's got a clean slate of sorts.
what i’ve got against him is that Rainbow is a team of elite military and police operatives and he’s a fuckin crook. they might as well start recruiting actual terrorists at this point
Nighthaven, a PMC, has operators in Rainbow.
and that’s bad too
You seem to fail to realize that he was a crook. I'm sure some of the other operators have done some sketchy shit before they joined. Flores:
-went to a military college
-has a military engineering degree
-is training w/Rainbow
-has had his slate wiped for becoming an asset to the FBI
He isnt a crook anymore.
17Gb for a guy with remote seeker mines,and some skins?
Nighthaven joining rainbow, i'll admit, was a bit HMM but regardless, they do their jobs well.
That is like,CoD level of storage killing
have you seen the newest animation? they’ve actually shown a hint of self awareness to show why hiring PMCs for your elite spec ops unit is a bad thing
They get the job done atleast Kirby
between interations with other operators, voicelines, animation data, weapons & their animations, skins, a fully new map (has to be redownloaded, mind you), 17 gigs is a not-terrible size
were the old updates that big? they certainly had more content
considering that (outside of what’s shown in bios, i don’t read them anymore) their only operation with rainbow has been the Tournament of Champions shite and they managed to fuck that up, i would say that they do not actually get the job done
jesus and they didn’t even add one new weapon in that one
Remember, a lot of stuff is deleted & redownloaded in update, or updates will make a games overall size smaller.
I’ll give it a try
After all,it’s only 6 bucks and I lose nothing if I don’t like it
So why even spend money on them in the first place?
Yeah
cus Harry’s a fuckin idiot ig
Tbf sometimes sacrifices must be made to get the job done
Whatever her name was,the sniper,she did kinda save the round
Kali
and id say that using teammates as bait -without their prior knowledge so it’s not a plan that they’re knowledgable of- is completely unbefitting of an elite team of counterterrorists, it puts people at risk
Kali like the chemical right?
Kali is a god of death in Hinduism iirc
(correction, a god but not of “death”)
“destroys the evil to protect the innocent” would be fitting if she wasn’t a mercenary
If she took time to yell “hey be a bait for a sec”,FBI redhead would’ve been shot lol
thinking on their feet is important but that kind of thinking, making up dangerous plans on the spot that put your teammates at risk and not telling them, expecting your own skill to make everything work- that gets people killed. Ash had a right to be pissed
Take it this way:you do nothing and someone will die 100%,or do something and has a 1-5% of saving them
Either way,if she’s wrong,Ash would’ve been dead.
It’s just that there’s a slight chance she’ll clutch it
she also could’ve shot Ash square in the face if her aim was off
The other person on the enemy team would’ve shot her if she did nothing
But when did this became a counter terrorist contest?
Like,last time I remember,Rainbow was trying to find what’s in the canister
And alien zombies at a point
February 2020. Blame Harry, because he thinks that turning counterterrorist training into a spectator sport is a good idea and blame Ubisoft for being poor writers
covert spec ops
tournament
Pick one
exactly
He looks exactly like how I would imagine Tom Clancy to look like,except he isn’t Tom himself
At this point,I’m surprised why there isn’t a Division agent in the team now
Just give them a 2-3 second pulse and give them a cool call sign
Like Orange or some shite
They'll need to canonize the apocalypse in siege to add one
yea they could make most of the SHD tech skills work as a gadget
true it would be difficult to justify but say they’re there for counter-bioterrorist training or something as a consultant from the government
I’ll do the biggest asspull because that’s how R6 lore’s working out
Society returns,agents get recruited because they have experience in urban combat or some shit
Which is lame,and no div3 with that
But hey,they made Pulse a simp at some point so I don’t care
maybe we’ll get an SHD agent in Parasite/Quarantine/whatever and they’ll be inducted to Rainbow due to that game’s events
Dollar Flu mutates?
well clearly it’s an alternate continuity but an alien virus outbreak will probably allow the SHD to be activated, in some capacity at least
even if that doesn’t quite fit in with The Division lore, they can mildly asspull it
Noble Squad were in Division 1? with Doug Sutton?
am I thinking of the right group?
Yeah
The one where they die because they don’t have proper bulletproof vest or anything else other than a shield
And one of them has a flash sticky
i know there was a deployable cover, could’ve sworn there was a turret but it’s been ages since i’ve looked
also what did you mean “DC branch” then
Dc division
which Noble Squad weren’t involved with
Idk,they both suffer from bad equipment+underemployed
they had SHD tech skills and they were a standard four man squad of agents, so i’m gonna disagree
Explain how the Capitol fell faster than the first wave
severe incompetence idk
I mean,how many of them had bulletproof vest?
all of them i should hope, they’re standard issue for SHD agents
And loses to some tiktok teens
“aI Ai A aI Ai A”
What the fuck is that version of Renai Circulation
Imagine losing to a bunch of retards
That can get that song wrong
I don’t understand, I’m afraid
Can anyone confirm that Siege on Epic is cheaper than Uplay?
weil it’s on sale on uplay
i meant epic
i mean does Epic have a deeper sale?
standard is $8 , deluxe is $10 operator is $35 ultimate is $54
sale is till the 4/8/21
standard on Epic is 6 bucks
ah shows 8 for me
n uplay pretty much the same
so it just depends on which launcher u like ig
Epic has a shitty launcher
What was it?Outbreak?Quarantine?
yo chat got a stupid question!!!!! 😐 🤣
how is it possible that in telegram someone appear on your block list suddenly without your permission
idk
Because they want to
hey may I ask, I want to buy wildland, would you recommend buying the ultimate version or just base game?
they changed the name
i heard parasite
@young igloo u a tech guy ?@pseudo vale needs help
depends i suppose
yea me too but apparently they changed that too
youre better off going to reddit/pcmasterrace and posting there
the guys will hook you up 100% with a dope build
and they keep up with all the tech a lot more
damn ubishit can’t make up their mind
there are usually build setups in the subreddit already for different budgets
i’ll keep that in mind for whenever i get some bread n get a decent build
till then gfn , stadia n ps4 gets the job done 🙏
Outriders is so going to become another Anthem, they are spotlighting -graphics- instead of gameplay in this SE presents
hilarious
I had fun on outriders demo . Cool game
Tighten up the movement system and the cover mechanics a tad more and it would be really fun. About the only thing I could complain about with the game. Its still enjoyable though
I’m gonna go play MGSV cus I hate myself
Its fine unless you continue into the final chapter, then it turns into self abuse.
Maybe I was just an idiot. But I don’t remember the controls being all too intuitive
😳 so are you saying that i'm a masochist? i've played it atleast 4 times to completion
Took some adjusting to, but nothing too terrible
But I’m willing to give it another shot cus I know the franchise has produced worse
Pure mad lad you are Alph lol
cough cough MGS2 cough cough
MGS2... bad?
Sure Raiden was not received well but the game itself was awesome
But to each their own
Whose willing to help a hungry child that's 18 who got kicked out of his parents house get food for his dinner tonight? (not my donation)
asking for stuff isnt allowed
Plus im heartless, not getting anything from this guy 🙃
off topic discussion :Shrug:
Asking for things is still against the rules
i’ve played it and the controls are mental. like, if you want to aim, you have to hold a button and LT, aim with the left stick, then let go of LT? i can’t quite remember but it was something like that
Quick Q, neighbor still alive Aspect? 😅
Yeah all MGS titles do have odd controls compared to other Third person games. Give MGSV another chance though, never know might end up enjoying it
Glad to know you didnt use those power tools for... other reasons.. lol Glad to hear Aspect
youd have to be a mad man
I wish they would remake Metal Gear 1 and 2
Wasnt MGS1 getting a remake?
maybe "bad" isnt exactly correct, more like "doesnt hold up to the rest of the series"
Or was that a fan project?
No I mean Metal Gear not Metal Gear Solid, also I haven’t heard of that
oh
i’ve never played them and there’s probably a lot of fans of the series who haven’t either
considering they’re the games that started it all i’d say they deserve it
True, and arent they considered cannon too?
everything besides portable ops & raiden's solo go is counted as canon
laughs in Metal Gear Acid
😆 Oddly placed, but very functional
and piloted by an anachronistic Psycho Mantis
yea fun fact, Mantis’ presence in MGSV contrasts him not knowing about hard drives or HDMIs or something in 4
sup
Reminds me... have they said anything about the movie past the announcement of Isaac playing as Snake?
Ello
always a good sign when you can’t start a new game... genius kojumbo
Hideo thankfully is doing fine on his own. Just hope Konami releases the IP rights since they know they cant do anything worth a damn with it.
Would be really awesome if Hideo bought the rights and got the game back under his belt
seems Kojima can’t do anything worth a damn when left to his own devices either
Guessing you didnt like Death Stranding? 😅
i’ve not played it but it’s a walking simulator isn’t it so
Yes but no, its an odd game for sure, but i still found it enjoyable. Nothing like MGS of course, but its a wild ride of a story for sure
Slow burn type of thing
it's definitely a great game but it was overrated as hell
it was praised as gold when it was silver at best
Agreed, it was overhyped a lot.
Did u ever boot up vahalla again n start bleach again @shy vine
Negative on both. Been distracted per usual
Eventually ill get back to Val, just after the amount of issues I had I still want to leave it a bit more to work out the issues.
I havent missed a single AC game so i will have to finish it lol Love the series too much
Same minus rogue
The game when u a templar..
Yeah i enjoyed it, really liked the tie in with Unity
What u been doing
Recently Crusader Kings 3 stated its free for the next few days so I have been trying it out. First game in the series for me and I actually really enjoy it.. im terrible at it of course but its fun
What kind of game is it
I usually hate that style of game but something about it pushes me to play more of it
Hack n slash?
Nah its a 4x type of game
Yeah like i said usually I hate these games but this one, just something about it I find fun
Havent seen it yet, i dont.. think? I rarely watch movies anymore 😅
Outside of wire-fu films of course
Judging from the name i figured as much 😛
Lots of dog fights n whatnot n ships
familiar with the battle for midway so i might check it out sometime
Seen rogue last night with Megan fox
i’m watching gotham rn, ||season 5 kinda reminds me of The Division||
bruh they even just said “The Dark Zone”
They’re in the Dark Zone, there’s no power
there’s gangs and shit
bad guys in gas masks
they’re really into drugs
a drug that’s one word, starts with the letter S
Spice?
the dark zone “used to be the posh part of town”
can all of this really be a coincidence?
considering gotham is based on NYC anyway
makes sense
lucky for me i use none of those three
is watchdogs legion fun?
And people wondering why games r half finished and the industry is suffering
https://www.yahoo.com/news/activision-blizzard-ceo-receives-200m-165908759.html
Meanwhile,they fired a couple hundred employees and only gave them 200 bucks worth of gift cards
That they can spend on their services
Not to feed themselves or their family,but to use them on the services owned by their former employer
Atleast EA pumps out decent games
(Apart from the Sports part,that can suck my 4,9% white death with dta as 3rd attribute)
Yea it's fun
Can i have some help from ubisoft plz
@solid summit @lean wyvern @tight perch @mighty arch
Dont ping the blues, What do ya need help with?
you woke up and chose violence
some one hacked my account and when i ask for reset password i do not get it on my email
i tried the site and Facebook and twiter but no one answer me
I’m sorry I can’t be of help. I try to have my weekends be weekends to avoid burn out. It’s difficult when your passionate about what you work on.
Whenever you get that solved though make sure to do 2factor Authenticator. Only way to be near 100% safe
ok ty
In the future, do please try to go through the official Ubisoft Support pages, and not here on discord.
i m doing that from yesterday but no one answer me facebook twitter and the forum and supp chat not available + i can not even open a case cuz unknown resone with the site
a 1 day waiting period is extremely short for most online support, especially one that deals with thousands of tickets.
i did not submit a ticket cuz this what i get "An error occurred while trying to send your request. Please try again later." its about 24h now
oh yeah thats a thing that happens, just keep trying to submit and it eventually works.
is this an other Feature ?
Huh?
that error not an error its just a Feature in the site lol
be playing MGSV
clear out a base
running around checking things out without a care in the world
because that’s the point of a god damn sandbox game
random truck pulls up
spots me, sounds the alarm
all the guards i held up stand up and shoot me to death
Fuck this game.
There's an old tale.
A man who finds a caterpillar in a cocoon,it is struggling to get out.
He helps it leave as it emerges as a butterfly.
But due to him helping the butterfly out,it has now developed weak muscles and cannot fly properly.
The butterfly starved to death.
@random skiff weba
cheers
si
So the butterfly is destined to die?
More like: If you dont allow someone to experience struggles in life you can hinder a person's growth, potentially causing them to be worse off.
i hate how bleach goes from 1 arc to the next in the middle on a arc
life without struggles is a life worth not living
Yeah the filler Arcs can be a pain sometimes.
yea tho i like the one with the princess
btw, is there any news on when the last arc is coming as anime ? 😄
The last info was "coming 2021". Havent heard anything on a specific time frame though.
Given covid and all it may have been delayed a bit.
aww
doubt
@young igloo are you gonna give out riders a try?
It's on game pass day 1 so maybe I'll give it a try, but idk I have so many games in my backlog
Do you have any tip to play as much as you do fellow friend?
XD get your lab shutdown by covid and you get plenty of free time
but if you want to get good at the game try a lot of stuff and think critically about how to best use it
You guys play Friday night Funkin?'
Just started playing ac unity
I wonder how rich ar the Assassins,so rich I hat one of their skills is literally dropping a bag of coin to create a crowd
A bag of coin,in the 18th century,in France
Unity is my favorite of the series. But yeah I did like that you could slam a handful of coins to cause a distraction and it actually takes it from your funds.
Imagine if the launch of that entry wasn't so terrible.. really wish they returned to its combat and parkour.
And the coop is awesome too
Is it (Unity) very different from other installments? (I think the last ones I played where Origins, Syndicate and Black Flag)
U missed out on the good ones
Black Flag was good (at least by the standards of Assassin’s Creed)
I chose to see it as having saved the good ones for later, it's not like I've committed to not playing them 😄 But how would you rank the later ones?
Odyssey sucks
I really liked Black Flag and Syndicate (loved the eras)
It's the kind of franchise where I don't want a lot of change to gameplay, so my hope is they haven't deviated too much from the standard format in any later games. Valhalla looks nice, Vikings are cool.
after syndicate they very much deviated from the format of the older games
The RPG creeds are their own thing really. Origins being the best of them, Bayak is amazing.
Aha, I'll check some gameplay videos. I see there are games in the series I never even heard of, like Rogue (and all the mobile/portable variants), and the Chronicles
For the older ones it hard to really define the best, but they have some awesome ones for sure, black flag for pirating, unity for parkour combat, AC2 for the outstanding characters...
i wish we got more of the AC1 setting
besides a DLC where Altair has a fucking gun
I'd kill for a proper remake of AC1
Dont change anything but QoL
It's a gem
Still enjoy their take on the control making it represent the animus.
yea it’s unique in the franchise
and it just sort of morphed over time to the point where you don’t even play as an Assassin anymore (Odyssey and Valhalla)
Yeah I know a lot of people enjoy an rpg creed but I really wish it would go back to its roots.
How when it's basically a pirate simulator
yea exactly
gameplay was good and it tied into the plot of Edward changing his ways, becoming a noble warrior instead of a scoundrel
(kinda)
I find vahalla a good ac game even has some of the classic stuff in it
Definitely lacking in the stealth area tho
Reminds me of ac1
Valhalla... its meh at best, the only saving grace is the last chapter
If the whole game received the same love as that portion it would have been amazing.
Mhm
agh Valhalla... my wife plays it and I sit with her and watch... and it's so cringy... I sometimes honestly feel like the devs are cheap trolls that kind of making it cheap and cringy for the lulz
I'm okay if they want to do it rpg, I do feel like these new entries are completely different from the original ones but that's okay, in my view these are not assassins creed games anymore... they're more like spin offs or simply milking the AC franchise, whatever
but (1) the story, dialogues, and acting are cheesy AF; (2) the movements, in combat but anywhere too really, are junky junky junky
That's how I have to treat the RPGCreeds. It's not that they are terrible.. they actually have their own pros and cons. Hell Bayek is amazing in so many ways, but I see them as a side series. It's why I really want/wish Ubi goes back to the original formula akin to AC1 and 2. Yes I love Unity, but i think if the series is to survive it's going to have to change things i might not completely like. My fear is Ubi turning it into a cash grab.
Oof,made a lot of typo on that last question
Anyways,how does Valhalla have anything that is remotely....ya know,assassins?
It’s Viking
some random assassins from the middle east show up and give you a hidden blade i think
They are like,twice the size of any main character til this point
So if I make a hidden blade myself,do I just turn into the Commie Assasin?
The end I wont spoil but they are trying to win back old fans of the Desmond trilogy.
whats the ending?
Just spoil it,I’m not gonna pay 60 bucks for it anytime soon,and my ssd has like 30 gig left
YouTube it, if you really want to. It sets up a very odd and weird future for sequels. It could be great, but again I'm afraid it's more a cash grab for Ubi.
Really hope it turns out for the better
cant you just
It would be better if it’s just “Valhalla”,and not Ac
||like this||
The next AC sequel will be in Vietnam
Cuz why not,if Vikings can be one,than so does rice farmers
someone else watch it i cant be arsed
desmond comes back and his dad
whats the context
Watch it and figure it out stop being lazy Kirby lol
If you follow the story of the series it's not that complicated
In the present, the Assassins deduce from Eivor's memories that the strengthening magnetic field is a result of Desmond Miles's activation of the Isu towers to protect Earth from a coronal mass ejection in 2012, with the field growing gradually but persistently ever since. To return the field to its proper strength, Layla travels to the Norway temple, bringing the Staff of Hermes to protect herself from the lethal radiation now within. Layla enters the temple's simulation computer and encounters Basim, who has been trapped for over a thousand years. Basim reveals that he was the one who sent the message leading the Assassins to Eivor, and instructs Layla on how to stabilize the magnetic field. This in turn releases Basim. Now trapped in the simulation, Layla encounters a being called the Reader (implied to be Desmond Miles), and together they work to prevent another inevitable extinction event. Meanwhile, Basim steals the Staff of Hermes–containing the consciousness of his lover, Aletheia–and rejuvenates his body before escaping the temple. He later meets with Shaun and Rebecca and requests to meet William Miles. After they leave, Basim re-enters the Animus to track down his missing children.
See wasn't that hard now was it.
I....don’t understand,and will refuse to elaborate any further until I watched 1-2 hours worth of story breakdown
Lol
fuck that noise im listening to music
Desmond is back bitches!! That's all that matters!
Pumped-up Kicks but it’s Kirby?
Pumped-up Kirby?
(you do know its "kicks" right)
All the other kids... with their pumped up kicks..
Autocorrect,sorry
i wish that existed
Kirby is badass enough, being pumped up is like going super saiyan for him... it...
Kirby's gender is ambiguous in Japan and male internationally
fyi
or so I've been told
The thing is, it literally eats the enemy and is among the hardest to defeat in the gaming world
I always mistaken it with Ditto
bruh
And have been haunted by it since I saw that Smosh parody on that
Kirby is borderline a God in most ways
Unironically
How so?
Its squishy, can make any material possible if it consumes it, it's natural resistance to attacks is borderline unfair, and it again can eat literally anything and mimic it.
To include attacks.. it's near one punch man unfair
||its theorised, and indeed heavily suggested, that Kirby is literally the reincarnation of an ancient god of destruction||
if minigames are to be believed:
his fists can split a planet in two
he can hit a planet destroying meteor and send it 9999 light years away
Plus its nightmare fuel, imagine running into the little fucker in a warzone, eating and spitting out anything you throw at it while grinning as you panic and delve into despair. Then it eats your strongest warriors only to mimic them and decimate literal armies.
you laugh but thats not too far from something that actually happened
Plan B:flamethrowers?
I mean,it did kill the Blob
So I’ll put my bet on this plan to either burn it with a helo,or trap it in a room and nuke it
the Blob was a metaphor for communism and Kirby has a friend called Marx 🤔
not to mention that Kirby's enemies have included two different monarchies, a massive corporation and organised religion
Terrifying when you break down what it's actually capable of.
The Blob is a commie?how?
The blob was basicly demonized yogurt... why did you associate it with communism?
heard it somewhere once, probably not true lol
According to Jeff Sharlet in his book The Family, The Blob was "about the creeping horrors of communism" only defeated "by freezing it — the Cold War writ small and literal".[24] Rudy Nelson, one of the scriptwriters for the film, has denied many of Sharlet's assertions, saying "What on earth can Sharlet say about the movie that will fill 23 pages—especially when what he thinks he knows is all wrong"?
Ah
Says the guy whose nation loses to some rice farmers
Still,if it’s actually commie,wouldn’t it being red fits better?
The Blob itself was made from silicone, with increasing amounts of red vegetable dye added as it "absorbed" people.
Ok so,why can’t I kill Kirby the same way they killed Blob?
I’ll see the answer later,good night!
i dont think he's particularly flammable
he can survive being crushed by ... big crushy things, being elecrocuted, having a rock the same size as he is falling on his head, being blasted in the face with a jet of liquid poison
If a being can eat a star, I think it's safe to assume it's near indistructable...
Especially if it eats said star and vomits it back at its foes in consecutive attacks. Again Kirby is nightmare fuel if you really think about it.
Do any of you ever have the feeling of having a itch to find a specific type of game but it only gets worse and worse because of many games you're trying are personal duds?
Yea actually
Well thats me with mmos rn
nah as i’m usually playing different stuff through the day
there are no good modern shooters RN
Tried destiny 2 both on pc (to see how it plays) and xbox (expansions are on game pass) but couldn't get into it because ive been seeing mixed thoughts on it and wasn't sure at all
Tried ffxiv but a combination of worries that i cant really find answers to just have me hold off on it
Div 2 im waiting on one friend to get through early game but even then having only 1 friend who plays it is not much
Used to play warframe but haha... We dont talk about that
cod is good if ur actually good n don’t mind sbmm
So now im kinda stuck here
Cold War isn't modern
and MW2019 sucks ass
outriders dropping soon so try the demo n see if u like it
Oh yeah and day one gp
also SBMM was a mistake
I tried the demo on pc
depends on the player
did u like it
Me like but it not being a live service makes me worry a bit because what should i expect by endgame?
good question
i’m guessing dlc maybe
that’s cap 🧢
I mean im not losing much since im kinda getting the game for free but its still a bit of a worry for me
Im curious as to what mmos people would recommend for what i can only describe myself as a bumbling ape
it's true
mediocre campaign, awful multiplayer, spec ops is boring and forgettable
cus it's Call of Duty? half of those players are probably the noobs the devs literally admitted to catering to
U could try. Different genre
the devs compromised the map design to give noobs safe spaces to camp. they admitted this
Nah even sweats n people in the cod community still like me 2019
Well In cod people gonna camp regardless of the map bigger or smaller
If anything adding the leaning feature made people camp more
They designed the maps to encourage camping. If you don't see a problem with that, we view things differently at a basic level
We definitely do which is cool
Regardless it's cod n there's always gonna be a camping bih u either rush or ya camp
Mw definitely was more camper friendly then cw tho
Huh explain
Honestly i never really cared about people camping in any game like cod. I understand why people would be frustrated but for me whatever happens happens
In the case it does get to me kd rather mess with the camper or kill them with some dumb shit
I usually rush in most games unless it's a obj mode like search n destroy n dom
Warzone I do a bit of both
I guess a better way to put it is im willing to take certain things seriously if i need to but if its something casual in the game where i dont really need to worry thats what i mean by bumbling ape
Nun wrong with that
It does feel weird considering thats how i am when it comes to things like lfg groups
Where in game of course im doing what i need to do but in comms with breaks in stuff thats a whole different story
All' shits n giggles with me even when I'm sweaty
Im in a couple of friend groups where we just act like a bunch of monkeys but we dont usually play the same games which is a bummer
Closest i got to something like that was with pd2 which that was pretty fun but we've been playing other stuff which i dont mind
Currently just div 2 but as i said before im lookin for other games to try
Nope
Ive used to play on it alot because of warframe and me and my brother got 3d world but one of my friends who is in our group for that never gets on
I want for when I'm out n about n for car rides n shit
Not a fan of the drift tho which I heard is still a thing
My pro controller has drift as well so i resort to a gcn controller if possible
Well i had mine since 2017 so ofc they do
And nintendo quite literally said it doesn't exist
Werid
When people be getting drift
But that's company's for ya
Is the lite good or should I get a real switch
I dont know to much about the lite to be honest
How does 512 for around $80 sound?
pretty good
i’ll definitely get one
just waiting on stimulus to come
mine by mail so it gonna take longer
wish i had it by direct deposit like my mum cuz she got hers last week .. bruh 😒
That's painful
all good it’ll come whenever it does
They use the same brainset for CoD mobile.remember that 2 bullet explosive sniper from AW?yeah let’s buff that,and buff damage on any 3 shot AR,AND nerf dead silence so that camping works.Such big brain they are!!!
Ok,so if you have to, @frozen sparrow how would you kill Kirby?
🤔
N that sniper from aw that's in codm still trash no one uses it in scrims
Only good for shits n giggles in pub matches
you’d need to deprive him of things he inhale and avoid attacking in such a way that produces stars he can inhale and spit out
so, i don’t think kirby would have much defence against getting sniped
Anti material sniper rounds,you say?
