i guess mw2019 tried to be appealing towards those hardcore mil-sim fans like insurgency but they forgot about the average cod mp player hivemind
"If you can't counter camping,camp."-captain Price
now,cold war is amazing(TO MEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE) but holy fucking shit Treyarch,i just bought the game and you pitched me up against this Chinese who already unlocked Gold or some shit with 3+ kd
campaign did not retcon history,plus Park,so 8/10
yes it's bo1 in Australia but that doesn't mean its bad
zombie good,need more maps
and it's actually the only game that can get away with Russians as the bad guy in my book,since you know,its THE cold war?
oh and about Vanguard,Sledgehammer has never made a really good CoD,so it's safe to say they're screwed
AW was ok at best but fuck the rng crates
WW2?more like zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
did you know it was originally Sledge who had to make the 2020 cod,but they screwed up so Treyarch has to take over?
Sbmm ain’t that bad tho
you obviously haven't tried cold war Oni
The court of CoD hiveminds have deemed you guilty for sweating
But people love assuming shit xd
but fr,it's pretty unbalanced
and it doesn't have a rank mode until like what?season 4?
like,what if i just want to have fun?
but wait,i can't because some guy with FaZe on their name using an anime skin will laserbeam you with his smg,or use the sniper like a shotgun
about Vanguard,the only exciting thing that has come out of it is the use of the mw2019 engine,graphics and all that crap+destructible terrains(but wait Thanh,isn't it battlefield 5 all over?Yes)
and i'm not sure about the graphics either:https://youtu.be/JpkAjWx-EUU
Git gud then
but what if i don't have much time to invest in a game?
and if i am forced to sweat just to have fun,then it's not fun,it's unfair and it's unbalanced
I mean if ur sweating u gonna be getting more kills , more wins n hopefully less deaths which should be more fun
Vs loosing n constantly seeing the respawn screen
sweating is often stressful,which is the opposite of fun btw
Depends on the player
thing is,that's alot of cod players right now
sbmm is just hated by everyone
well,most of them tbf
But current cod should have ranked so it’ll seperate the casuals from the sweats
tell that to cold war and mw2019
you know what,cold war gets a pass because of league play
-batman voice(ignoring how obnoxious the sbmm still is in casual,the sweats that like bullying noobs and how it took them 4 flipping seasons to learn their lesson)
I think people hate sbmm cuz they just want ez kills n wins
that’s not even remotely true
enlight them Kirby
if people wanted easy wins they’d love SBMM because they can just smurf/derank themselves into fighting noobs
That or like playing against people that’s less skilled then them
even pros hate sbmm,forcing them to carry shitty teammates
Yea a lot of youtubers do that
Reverse boosting be a thing
SBMM doesn’t put you up against players who are as good as you, it puts you up against players who do as well as you- so a player with average skills is going to yo-yo between fighting noobs and sweats repeatedly
oh and don't forget they're based on your latest match's performance
no SBMM means that in every lobby you have a realistic chance of winning, as you will fight any combination of noobs, sweats and average players
SBMM means every match is predetermined before it begins
so maybe you're just an average player who just beats a bunch of noobs,and the next second you're fighting some Chinese guy with 4+ kd
Some interesting logic
it's kinda sad to realise that in order to enjoy a cod,you need to play the game that came out last year to have fun
because the new game will either be broken or poor in content
except bo4,fuck bo4,all my homies hate bo4
That depends on the person tho there's servesl people that enjoy current cods
that is when it works
mindless fanboys.there i said it.or atleast when a game is near the end of the life cycle
🙂
i don't see how my teams who are going negative can win this 3+ kd guy
pretty rEaLiStIc chance to win
OH MY GOD
MY FUCKING EYES
Man having a 3.0 KD ratio be irrelevant
I JUST READ A COMMENT
U can still beat him/ her / it
A MOBILE DIPSHIT JUST SAID THAT SIMON "GHOST" IS FROM COD GHOSTS
IM FUCKING DYING RN
Oni can you send Kirby the pics?
you know what,hold on a second Kirby
my brain is on fucking airplane mode right now
codm community bad
There's several mobile players that have played console/ pc cod tho
key word:"Several"
Eh
Cod still cod xd og cod back in the day, current cods or the f2p ones like codm n warzone
Shits all the same
hear me out:codm and warzone are killing call of duty as a whole
Warzone is another BR game just branded under CoD for marketing- if your only exposure to CoD is warzone you’re not a CoD fan, it would be like saying Apex players are Titanfall fans
at least the old way of cod
exactly kirby
Codm isn't really th9
it'd be like claiming you're a Tom Clancy fan by playing that mobile game
codm alone made 800 million bucks last year
As it's basically the og cods mixed with the newer ones
sorry,i meant 100 billion
K what ur point
It has micro transactions
Game is still very free to play n isn't pay 2 win
it takes a studio to make a CoD game for a year,then it dies out in 1-2 years and you'll need a new game
which is costly
while CoDM doesn't need that much effort into developing the game itself
True but codm n warzone gonna be around for years tho
and it's easy cash grab
that's the point
it would save them time and costs to work on a mobile game/warzone than just the traditional cod titles
loot boxes,bundles,flashy anime skins
battle passes,new skins you get the idea
Easy cash grab n also gives the cod community a game they can play on the go / on their phones n such for free which be good for people who can't afford current cod or other reasons or wanna play on mobile
Well for a big company like Activision that's not a problem
Activision is ran by Bobby Kotick,a guy that would make EA look like a saint
think about it for a second
Mhm
he fired a bunch of employees to "cut down costs" last year,then proceed to award himself with 1.75 million dollars
that is peak greediness,not even EA can rival
even his investors said that he's earning too much money in the middle of a pandemic
a man that only speaks money figures out a way to make more money and can cut down cost at the same time?
that sounds great as a businessman,not so great as a consumer
his salary literally goes up in 2020
So what u up too
now?nothing,just on discord
still gonna wait for a while to say sorry to that admin i talked about yesterday
Try Wednesday
tomorrow,got it
N same internet kinda shit at the place I moved to so I won't be playing much at least which is aight as I'll be hitting the gym soon n getting back into skateboarding
Gotta catch up on my weeb stuff too
jojo part 6 yay
Tho might be moving again so it's all good
So GTA trilogy coming I am excited for it
shame they threatened to sue all those modders and their years of work first.
that’s how copyright works
no, that's how evil companies squash down on creativity work.
These mods were free, the work was being done for free, it did not impact Rockstar whatsoever.
PC gaming started off as modding things to create games.
thinking that publishers are "in the right" here is just twisted.
what mods are these? the only ones I can find is old stuff about cheaters in GTAO
lemme find it.
here's some of them: https://www.pcgamesn.com/grand-theft-auto-v/liberty-city-mod-dmca
tl;dr a bunch of the mods removed were glow-ups of old GTA stuff.
I'm assuming that it's because of the recently announced remaster thingy.
would you rather:
-pay 30-60 bucks for a game then buy a 20 bucks bundle
or
-play a free game and pay 100 bucks for a bundle?
the first one. keeps the rabble out, lol.
@lost girder im moving it here cuz its obviously off topic.
now that you mentioned it,tencent actually has some influences in western video games too,which usually sounds fishy
i think they practically own Riot(the people who made League of Legends and Valorant) and 40% of Epic Games now iirc
it relates directly to ubisoft and their extended divison universe, i kinda dont want to talk about the politics of it (since i don't really follow world politics that much.)
i was gonna go into how the ccp is gonna bend history in forms of media
i stopped really following the news in like... the mid 2000s
maybe up to 2010, but not much farther
example 1 is with the CoD Cold War teaser in 2020,when Activision removed a 2-second cut of a scene that shows the...1989 event
which backfired and 90% of the comments down there are mentioning the event
but thats not the point
the point is,if they can influence what we see,then how can we guarantee that your favourite game/studio won't change history?
MW2019 already tried to fyi
hmm yes the Highway of Death was done by Russians
cod has always been anti russian
all of them after MW2 at least
but im sure retcon-ing an event in a video game is nowhere near severe as cutting out a clip about a massacre that actually happened out of a trailer with the message "Know your history" at the end
ign still somehow has the original uncut teaser somehow
i still find it ironic that by cutting it out of the trailer,they made people talk about it more
I GOT INTO SPANISH CLASS
I assume it's something you are happy about, seeing how you typed in all caps.
why do i immediately think of duolingo?
YES
Donde esta la biblioteca
did you just google translate that Aspect?
Prob not
I like to think you actually just watched Deadpool 2 once.
My secret has been found.
I have appeared
How's school
Damn shame on u
Not my fault I wake up at 2:40 in the morning and don’t eat
I feel u
have you tried closing your eyes instead of waking up smh
I go to sleep by 9-10 and still wake up at like 2-3 in the morning
I’d still wake up by then
Workout then n get ur self tired
I try to
That or just take some sleeping pills
Oh aight
Cuz like gates close by 7:55
I used to just nap in class xd
Would have my earphones on n hood on n took a nap
mornings were also easier cause I knew hell, I have to wake up now but I am getting it back later
Granted I had chill teachers so idk
I'd usually get my shit done first anyway
Fuck I miss high school
w h e e z e
Same
yes
I appear again
Dunno y I picked out twizzlers from the store smh
They barely have any flavor smh
Tho i did get the red kind n the last time I had the rainbow one
The strawberry cream filled ones are really good
At least the good then they pretty low in fat n calories
Ah of course u like those
Never had em tho do they be at Walmart @modest pebble
Can’t play it atm but lit cp 2077 getting a dlc
I cant help but laugh at the sounds shoebills make
Who
Hi I would like for someone to please talk me out of legally changing my name to "stunt"
like your actual name?
Yes
So for 5 ghz setting on wifi do some routers / modems not have the option or all of em do n u just gotta enable it
i can't help but good luck with that
Before buying the modem or router, you should see on the box or description online if it supports 5Ghz. Very few now days do not support that band as its become standard, at least in the US.
Also some routers try to "smartly" assign devices to 2.4 or 5 automatically (poorly most the time) so you will only see one SSID to connect to. So if your devices (both modem, router and your phone, computer) support it but your only seeing one SSID being available in your wifi search, its a good bet its combined under a single SSID which can be changed in your modem/router settings.
Half awake so if that sounded confusing ill try and reword it better if need be, or if someone else wants to break it down better, be my guest. 😅
Aight ty for the info @shy vine
Guess the one here only has 2.4 or it did the smartly thing
I doubt it
If it’s newer I doubt it doesn’t support 5G
This is pretty much right on point.
Tho since the speeds here kinda slow at least compared to old place I lived it at it prob wouldn't make a difference
All good anyway considering I'm moving again next month
Look at the back, bottom, side of your modem/router that you use. Should be a login and password section somewhere on it that you can then use on your web browser to login and change your settings.
Also yes, it could be your location also. Cabling may be shit, either from the outside or inside of your home. Many possibilities.
How's work
Bullshit per usual. Still searching for something better.
Job market is kind of ass where I live
Unless you want to flip burgers of course.
Could try something like stocking
Eh, i need a living wage, also looking for a career not just any job 🙂
Ah I see
recently got into farming Eidolons in WF, super fun when you can get a bunch of runs in a single night.
@shy vine Warframe.
space ninja by way of neon evangelion.
basically yeah, and once you do some of the quests it gets even faster.
effectively, the movement system is parkour and teleporting.
I appear
Howdy

@analog cairn 1. @ everyone doesn't work on this server and I highly recommend not doing it on any other server, it's not really appreciated to get pinged for no forking reason other than some random person trying to promote their page. Which brings us to 2. Don't promote yourself on this server. Read the rules.
my bad, sorry about that.
Who here is planning to get Stray
chesire is for sure
its on my steam wishlist as of today
What is stray?
I prob will eventually
idk i was into the trailer until the robots took over, i sorta would prefer a more cat-centric cat game without the bots.
@modest pebble u don’t like cats
and im saying that as a scifi nut who loves asimov, his robot stories, and tech in general.
U should give it a try
Cool huge Jackman movie came out today I think
Nah it’s just not my type of game
Oh aight
And. dog>cat
all animals are good, none better than others.
scorpions are cool
but ppl think im weird just because i want a winged spider as a pet
who glue'd wings to a scorpion?
m e
Agreed they better than us these days
this sevagoth farm is starting to eat my soul.
im borderline about to buy him, and i only need 1 part.
i am fine with grind, but this is RJ grind.
RJ grind is bad grind. Guess I need to get around to pimping my own one and soloing the things.
6k mr,
so yes but no.
plus i kinda wanna try him, i hear gloom is good on the helminth.
Well since u only need 1 more u could buy it
N u in Warframe or this different game
WF yeah, ghost pal.
Rime-seance or whatever it’s called a ok movie
My ex randomly called me after finding and drinking vodka
Pretty surprised how she can talk and try to stand up straight while drunk
That’s a good n bad thing
its not hard
Why good?
oh god weeb plz dont say it
I’m not
"finding", is this phrased this way because she's a minor?
i believe so
Anyway if she ask say no you’ll thank me later
hmm i thought i remembered u from somewhere hopper
oh, i thought you always recognized me from here.
We both kinda are
memory go burrr
anyway i wouldnt answer calls from stupid drunk minors
Yea mine be fading as well guess it’s part of getting older
man, thats rough then. people that age are already emotional powder kegs, then you add alcohol. a very volatile mix. i'd think twice.
Makes sense considering how shit is these days
^^^^^
U could tell folks
H ow we live like miles apart
Good point
oh, i hope this isnt one of those things were they put-you-on-a-hook emotionally, cuz in the long run it could adversely effect your psyche.
Can confirm it will
I hope so too
We'll be back with "therapy on the Official Div2 server" after these messages from our sponsors.
<skip ad>
Not bad game
Riri is sponsored by Raid, confirmed.
I tried it, it's really awful.
40 BILLION NEW LEGENDS TO UNLOCK
Slightly better than clash of clan
You can quite literally press 1 button to play it.
COME STICK UR PAY WALL BUTT PLUG UP MY ASS
now that theres open world mobile games out, idk, turn-based seems kinda outdated.
Yea they’re
mobile games seem kinda outdated
Apex mobile
Nah the market growing
with ports (like the upcoming warframe mobile) becoming things, mobile is kinda looking like it might suck less.
Si
what about the gamer on the go that has to go? can't exactly drag that stuff into the bathroom, right?
lmao
Exactly
watch me
true gamers where pull ups
no need for bathrooms
right.... it's for the gaming... lol
So odder u never play mobile games
While consti for hrs on the toilet
fair
must be hulu. no shame, brother, no shame.
some call it the hub but i prefer, premium video services
yea that definitely that
night,
Gn odder sleep well chief
Division 2 Specialization refs I could think of for Arknights:
Sharpshooter: Andreana, mainly because she's the 2nd "actual sniper" next ambriel, and because of her rifle's design
Survivalist: Schwarz, due to her crossbow's design and how her and Division's crossbows deal heavy damage but fire slowly
Demolitionist: W, cuz of her grenade launcher and frequent use of explosions, there's also Meteor but W uses kabooms a lot more
Firewall: Ifrit, she has a flamethrower, that's it
IDK who pick for Technician or Gunner because nobody in Arknights uses Gatling/Minigun or Rocket Launcher
speaking of specs,can we just have 1 specs that can use smokes to block enemy's sight and have a special melee/silenced weapon?
kinda like that one spec tree in Breakpoint where the guy throws a smoke on the ground?
it's not even that big of a deal or something that's out of place,the hunters use them all the time when they appear
here's the idea:have a smoke launcher as a sticky variant,or maybe its a trap variant,spec weapon will be a one shot silenced pistol,have a smoke grenade,other skills will include attracting less enemy in a group/party,increase damages to enemies not targeting you like a built-in Mantis talent,a knife as a sidearm,and maybe a silencer mod that increases weapon damages in close range but decreases damages over range
Christ i just typed all that?
@sacred snow how's u and ur friend doing
we're cool now
That's good to hear
@amber horizon did you just join an insurgency server?
saw someone named just like you there
nvm then
I was looking at GFL Vector's Hellfire skin for the Division collab
Apparently its based on the Cleaners
And HK416's skin is based on the LMB (basically a faction exclusive to Division 1, hence why I haven't heard of it)
Div lore isn't really 1 and 2 separate, it's more all lumped together in the same basket.
hence: WONY existing.
Looking for a strikers gloves.
If anyone has one.
I'm in Group Voice 1.
Whoops wrong channel.
@void ore Either way, you can't trade gear with someone else unless you obtained it while in the same group, and within the time limit.
yea that's what i thought i got the bundle for 1&2 for 16.50
but i'm bad at 1 so i may just skip like the whole thing
i'm better at div2
1 is certainly...different to div2.
it's honestly way more tactical, what with the timed buffs, the ult, etc, etc.
yea i barely got past the first mission
a part of me still likes it better than div2, even though the addition of Spec Trees is a real game-changer.
the biggest difference for me is the shift from the heavy emphasis on cover. div1 seemed to have more cover rules (half/full) and definitely punished you severely for not properly utilizing it.
why? 4 words: separate jacket and shirt.
suicide squad is probably my favorite new movie.
it's too bad so many people seem to think it's the old lame one.
hold on, the suicide squad.
a near identical name didnt help.
a subtitle wouldve made that so much easier.
"Suicide Squad: we didnt get a trailer house to edit this one".
or
"we didnt blow half our budget on all the songs in the first 5 minutes"
the suicide squad and f9. this is a really good year for john cena. good for him.
i just want Ult's back. PVP would honestly improve from it and i really dont see it being terrible for PVE either.
would be nice for both ends of the game
Spec Tree's kinda overshadow ults, imagine div2 endgame without those.
I think with all the fundamental changes to 2 trying to drip a lot of things from 1 back in just wouldn’t really work
e.g. my beloved DeadEye or D3-FNC.
i want striker
uh, not sure how to tell you this Odder.
the regen wouldnt even be broken tbh
you've been in a coma for 7 Seasons. Wake up!
no, currently we have shitter not striker
we have bottom of the barrell shit gear set
i want my old striker back
wait, why are we talking about div2 in the off-topic channel lol.
yup
john cena.
we talk about off topic stuff in general and on topic stuff here

slurs? glad i keep those channels muted then.
have a good song:https://youtu.be/VDrwssKZPaw
between the two john cena movies, i'd have to rate them the suicide squad>f9.
f9 was a cool touching film, but the suicide squad was pretty well done on multiple fronts.
f9 is a disappointment
what happened to Fast?
what happened to racing cars?and brotherhood?
i remember when they were still talking about cars and nitros and shit,not strapping a rocket on a car and go to space
Hey than
can I play soccer inside u?
cuz ur a park
also we are going to plant lots of corn
and build a corn maze inside the Than Park
where we can play persona 4 in peace
Octavia + Pandero + Tenora
I feel so Prime-y today.
Does anyone have the new generation of Xbox controller
I've heard it's good for plug+play, no hands-on experience tho.
The series x/s controllers
nope, none exist
but I have the it , and I use it wirelessly and when I try to play division , the button layout is weird . When I try to run it opens the map , I have even reset all my settings to default .
sorry nope it doesnt exist
you have it synced via "xbox accessories" or a third party driver app?
^ Had to do that with mine, works like a charm after syncing, mainly because it had a firmware update.
How fast are load times on series x?
Depends on what the content is your attempting to run, but its using a SSD with some tweaks in how its accessed (PS5 does the same) so its super fast for the most part. Some games that used to take 40 seconds to load now takes 10 seconds, that type of thing.
Digital Foundry did a few tests on it, which can be found on their website and Youtube page if your more interested in it all.
Time to head into Guild wars 2
it's a bot, it won't respond
ah
scam link
they should set up the bot to auto-delete any message using that tag, I think
Wish Discord would just take that feature out all together, no one likes it to begin with.
eh, it has its uses on smaller servers when the mods want to update everyone with the new rules or something
but it should be mod-only, at least
I suppose. But yeah mod only would make it less of a bother for sure.
i brought it up
Hey Aspect 
Hey Mars

Sup
Not much, enjoying my day off watching youtube and listenin to music mostly.
who here took psychology
What's everyone's opinion on 7-Up
I took intro to Psyche does that count?
I played it years back, don't really remember it tho.
i done hw already
the soda or game
by game, are you guys talking about the cool spot video game or heads-up 7-up?
idfk
Took Psychology for a gaming degree. How to manipulate people into doing what you want, like for example, buy your product. Such an underrated class I feel. Its so manipulative its scary.
Compared it during a conversation with my dad who did more advance courses in it.. shit is wild to say the least, the conversations we had about our experiences and how to read people and enforce ideals is stupidly interesting. At least to me. I highly recommend it for anyone needing to fill in classes for a degree.
So I just got a multi in Arknights and got the 5 Star Rainbow Operators
Really fascinating since they speak english-in game
which takes time getting used to but eh
It's a cool detail
Really plan on getting Ash because she's waifu material to me
and Tachanka because he's closest I got to an Operator Idea I had that could tank and wield a machine gun
plus the grenade ability
Also I found this
“combat skirt” unless you’re an armoured vehicle that’s an oxymoron 
As much as I used to love R6, Siege killed it. Not in a good way. I lost all interest in the franchise once they decided to turn it into it a "Game show" mentality over actual operatives kicking ass and doing what they do best.
Elites called in to take on terrorists. Devolved into players fighting others, mission goals that lack anything "Rainbow 6". Hell look at the recent announcement of contamination, quarantine, or whatever they called it now after the 4th time it flopped in alpha/beta. (Pushing that mode too hard..)
kinda interesting though, and kinda meta, having the game be aware of the e-sports angle its taking
if i didnt know they'd planned e-sports from the beginning, then it's be... kinda meh.
I just want a real R6 title by this point. It started great, but turned into a cash grab.
Same with almost all Tom Clancy games
Ghost Recon is a prime example.
I dare say Vegas had a good idea, by pursuing a modern take on shooters, with a R6 formula.
Wasnt great by any means but was at least more enjoyable.
Patriots I think was the right way to go from what it tried to showcase. But we got Siege instead.. for better or worse.
I think Patriots would’ve been pretty cool
idk Breakpoint was ok
the themes of the game seemed like MW2019 but not shit
a bit downgrade from Wildlands but fair enough
Breakpoint was a decent try at redemption. I did have a good time with it.
so you didn't like Wildlands?
Breakpoint can be fine if they don't make it Division-esque gameplay
As afar as a Ghost Recon game... eh..
I think Ubi lost the focus of what those IP's were
i mean,innovations are fine
look at mw2019,a banger
:(
I can agree, MW2019 turned out amazing
it's been different since at least future soldier.
except the main story and spec ops,those 2 are dogshit
Again, nodding
you have redeemed yourself...somewhat
Miss Spec Ops
fucking jugs are invincible
Eugh'
dude...
literally took 2 shield turrets and almost all my mg reserves just for 2 more to spawn
Head shot golore, nah mate.. we shrug that off
idk how anyone can mention breakpoint having those div mmo-stuff and not mention new dawn. it's so weird that they did that twice in the same year.
Oddly enough though I enjoyed what Future Soldier tried to do
The takedowns, was fun, the MP was great (PC so hacks ruined it fast) but I enjoy the story really, it was fun to experience
shit, aliens is 2hr34min... terminator was only 1hr 40something.
lol yeah gotta love the money side of the house'
Hate when Devs or Publishers force that shit
Mix franchises, sure.. but the Term and stuff i couldnt enjoy for the sheer fact of the stupidity of blending the universes
I like cross universes, likes Sam helping Nomad, that was great for me. But the out there content.. its hard for me to enjoy
Hurts the franchise as a whole in my mind ya know?
that r6 mission in wildlands is weird af
you can't breach a door from outside but rather inside out?
Poor implementation sadly. Wasted opertunity to make both IP's more likable. Its odd how that stuff gets through the board who decides on what should be made into content.
Gotta tell myself though, now days its down to money so.. yeah -_-
I don’t blame people for forgetting about New Dawn
👍
the smoke bomb skill in Breakpoint reminds me of AC
yeah, people were confused because the did a take on the feral powers in instincts/predator. i mean, hell, the whole reason the didnt bring jack back for fc2 was because market research said people had no clue who that was, so it's... kinda on them.
too bad it's stuck as a skill only and not a throwable
And thats why i am against listening to fans on games.. let the Devs make their games how they want. If it flops its on them, I miss creative chances in game development.
Its why we have so many carbon copies in the industry. At least its what i feel. I could be wrong of course.
Also why we see the likes of R6 in its current state.
Anyone remember Giants: Citizen Kabuto. That was an amazing game.
was it about giant beetles?
never heard of it
They took a chance, it was awesome, but sadly over shadowed. If that game came out today, I feel it would do well
Creative chance. Even if it flops, it helps other Devs and ideas in the industry
lol No giant beetles
But god it was fun as hell
On my wonderful dial up at 56k
Gamespy service.. jesus i feel old now
I think Evolved took cues from it in some ways
Minus the awesome base building mechanics
Delphie was awesome to play against.
Should check it out if yall can, youtube and such videos are out there im sure
Aspect.. Cat.. someone save me from sounding old
Corey.. someone lol
Juh...
fml
@random skiff you relate.. right?
no one's gonna save you from your fate Mars
God dammit
b o o m e r
For a 34 year old.. that makes it seem like I just added 10 years on my age. Im NOT OLD! Q_Q
Quake was the best game in the world... Dos was GOAT.. (fill in catchy modern day terms here).. GET OFF MY GRASS
In all seriousness though, Giants was what I wished was a start of a great franchise, that sadly wasnt.
I fear it would eventually be plagued with what happened to Evolve. All would gank/abuse system mechanics and make it impossible for the "Giant" to actually do anything.
You get to play the game Thanh?
Ah
too young for it,living in the wrong time
lol Dammit man, passively making me feel old..
Did you play any games during the "GameSpy" era?
i barely knew it exists until today:(
Holy... well shit
what the fuck was i doing with my childhood
ah yes,playing r6 Shadow Vanguard and PvZ on an iPad
it's confidential,i'll never tell you that i'm 17-wait
yep im like,half your age
Passive aggressiveness didnt pass you up it seems
i...uhhh...don't quite understand what you mean
Riiight
no like,what do you mean by passive aggressive?
Making a point, bluntly, without meaning to. Best way I can explain it without a google definition.
google said it's someone whose actions doesn't match up with their words
You made your point of being younger than me, bluntly.
Without trying to be an ass about it.
Its how i took it. So thats how I took it, so all is good 😛
oh shit i thought i was gonna get into some deep shit
lol nah your good
probably because i smack talked sometimes in the past
Some people can take it differently im sure, but yeah. Probably a bad example I just gave you lol
Anywho
Recently tried Aliens Fireteam Elite. Amazing game for those that like GTFO-Lite.
Vermintide with rifles. XD
it gives out this weird division vibe idk why?
Its more closed off maps, than an open world. But it has cover mechanics and I like the gunplay as its intuitive.
Plus who doesnt love facing off against Xenomorphs?
shouldn't you be scared of them instead of crushing them like minced meat?
you know,because it's an Alien game?
Only if your NOT a Tech in the game.. is so fun lol Granted the heavy gunner has the Smart Gun (heavy MG that destroys Xeno's)
Still aint no AvP sadly
Really need a true successor to that franchise. I miss the three way gameplay TDM
Mars,just so we're clear
i did not try to be an ass earlier when you ask about my age
like,for real
lol your fine man, all good
i kinda got into some trouble before because of my poor english
and ways of saying things
Meh, im american and my english is terrible.. your good no worries
I spent the majority of my life over seas in other countries so im used to different cultures. 🙂
Born and raised in the South, so my accent raised eyebrows, but yet spending time overseas has lessened my accent.. i got a weird talk now days. lol
Can be at sometimes, talked over multiple weeks in a bat with an older gentlman that only spoke Deutsche. Couldnt understand a thing but we both enjoyed our drunken bouts with one another lol
wdym talked in bat?
We talked around one another without reason, just ranted about our days mostly
In person, when i was stationed in Germany. Bayern, Bamberg
👌
Guy could have been my dad in age, but we had a good time, even though we couldnt understand one another 😛
where are you from if i may ask?
US, Tennessee
getting late isnt it
Wee little bit
I work nightshift, so my days off I keep the same time. Im up at all times though :p
dw, that game makes me feel relatively young in comparison.
Who is here
Lol this channel is not that active is it?
Sometimes
it has it's uptime and downtime too
How long are you going to be a park?
that depends
until
A.i found a picture of someone named Park that isn't Korean
B.end of covid because i like loneliness
Loneliness is addictive
well drugs are meant to be addictive,no?
can't hang out with friends,can't cycle around for fun
That escalated
im hoping its good
same
but it's f2p so i have some doubts
ubisoft aren't exactly the best when it comes to monetisation
When is it out?
Free shit, can't complain
will most likely be quite heavily monetized
i mean,they could atleast give us an update
they could
hopefully only cosmetics
I'd prefer radio silence to info that'll get changed in a month's time.
covid is really messing with dev schedules these days, can't blame them for being mum about it.
a bunch of friends started playing Div 2 again when they announced new content, but absolutely no news not even a shred made em leave again
they could at least say "look we plan the mode to work like this overall, subject to change"
they can't say they need to keep the overall idea a secret until release
there still hasn't been any major update to div2:(
I’m still waiting for season 2 rerun
all this does it bore people
a whole bunch already play other looter shooters more
I assume they will rerun the seasons in order once the update is out
do you want something from its reward track or what?
Except they have announced that we're getting new content in div2, and even a timeframe: "before 2022".
besides, div2 has loads of content right now, enough for a few years of casual play, less if you rush of course.
yes they have but if they had paced their advertisement of the said content better they would have kept more people playing
the game got a surge of retuning people just because they announced new stuff, but most of em left already, if they had given small bits of progress reports, like we used to have SOTGs, it would have helped
Feels like a pretty petty complaint.
Games just lose most of their player-base in the off-times. It's just what happens. Not really the devs fault either way, and not overly the publisher's either.
would it not be in their interest to keep people as interested as they can?
Besides, promising content requires that you 100% know what is going to happen, if you say something and do another, you'll just get complaints about "lying".
and MSV have always been more of the type to just drop news a month before something comes out. Aka: WONY.
iirc announced in January, released in March.
you call it a petty complaint but you missed when I said only safe details
they HAVE to know the overall scope of the mode by now, they could give info that's not subject to change, keep details that are subject to change off the news
you cannot tell me only now like 4 months before the year is over they decided "yeah it's gonna be resistance 2.0"
Speaking of missed, read my last comment.
this is just what MSV do, you may not like it, but it's their game at the end of the day.
I want the game to prosper, it prospers with players
you do not have to defend them and call people petty for everything
Stop being so defensive. I'm allowed to call out an attitude without being a shill.
anyway, this is pretty far on-topic, let's leave off-topic to what it's for.
it's not an attitude, I am merely saying that from what I saw in other games, it helps to drip new info to keep players interested
You cant complain about monetize when it's free
I mean you can and should, but doesn't mean you have any validity to the complaint.
so you are saying complete silence is better?
when it's obvious so many leave since they're not sure what's coming
I agree, silence is better
No, I'm saying that silence works for MSV.
"so many leave" is just what happens with games in their off-time, and post launch.
Than broken promises
but my point is they do not have to promise anything outlandish or give out a full scope of the new mode, just little tidbits of info to keep players coming back
The various studios are working on several different products, and MSV alone have 2 in development, plus the free new mode.
Div2 is just a bit old now, we're getting a free update. Just enjoy that it's happening and don't worry about it. It's all good.
hell, the fact that we're getting a f2p spin-off is actually a good thing, means renewed interest in the franchise.
and doesn't set a good precedence since it basically telling the devs "hey you can guys can basically give us less and we will be happy with it"
No matter what they say, if it doesn't have 100% certainty it might not happen. Then the players will cry because of lies. So better be silent until you have 100% certainty. happens rarely therefore silence.
I want the game to prosper, I am not criticizing their approach for the sake of criticizing
^also this, a lot of people who criticize the game, love the game
and you cannot tell me they do not know what the mode is, after so many months
they're already far in development by now
they want to see it grow since they know it has potential, being happy with mediocracy or worse is just cringe
This is quickly turning into another "game ded" convo and I'm really not up for it right now. I'mma just bounce from it.
plans won't change suddenly
no it's not about game being dead
it's about potentially getting more people to play
Rivens you make me sigh
and look I get it people would complain if they promise the moon and do not deliver
but I am not asking for a full reveal
I think these companies are traumatized from the players criticism. So they remain silent
I think I've proven a few times now that I really, really don't care what others think of me on this server.
so sigh away.
It's not personal. It's just that you avoid discussions, claiming it's argument when it's not. And your input is good, so it's a shame you avoid discussing. Disagreement is fine, maybe you are just frustrated so i get it
being called "petty" for wanting the game to prosper is really nice too
could have been told "I disagree"
I played runescape. Jagex don't say anything because they fucked up so many times with their promises. So i get why companies want to remain silent, because players are roasting them.
alright everyone calm down
I proposed a balance between silence and giving too many promises, only talk about what is set in stone
You are right goat
it's been 5 months since they announced they are working on a new mode, they have the foundation done I am sure
dw Thanh, they'll tire out eventually.
Do we know so little by now?
we only know new mode, that is it
Hmm they could tease they definitely know what it is like you said
small bits of info on aspects that are set in stone could have been enough to bring back many many people from my clan
more people, more potential transactions
if this was 1 month after the announcement, sure, things are still being planned, but it's the end of August already
I am not asking for info cause I want to know it or else, I just feel it would revitalize the game
Honestly it seems like gaming and tech companies only make bad decisions lol
I mean I am not expert, but I play other games meant for long-term profits and the way they release info always gets people talking and playing
my stance is merely from the consumer side of things
Makes sense honestly. You need to maintain the hype with teasers
it happened in this game
twice now, Warlords was announced, people surged back just cause there was new stuff on the horizon
back in March they also announced the new mode and such, people came back playing just becaues of new stuff on the horizon, raids, season, all that good stuff
hype can go a long way
Well it should happen before 2022 so they don't have much time to release info. And we will know soon enough
see
there's rumors around it might be fiscal year 2021, so that means before the next march
the only different, mechanically, is there isnt a "parkour" button like in division, in fireteam, you just use the roll button. otherwise i think the buttons are pretty much 1:1.
again I did not ask for a deadline
just small bits of info they are certain on
but yeah
i know, but they gave it. didn't they claim before 2022?
once there is no info, bad rumors spread more easily
well, that very lack of further info is fuel enough for such rumors
not saying it's true, just saying it's flying around
what are you guys talking about? the new div2 content?
yes
last we heard was "late 2021"
that is the official info yea
but there was supposed to be a info release before that, which is "early late 2021" which is where we are now.
so idk if it's still on track.
How is Aliens: Fireteam Elite?
I would put money down on it not being the worse game with "Aliens" in the title.
last I heard (word of mouth, apparently from someone on the 'Ubisoft Investors monthly call' was that they'd pushed it back to 'before the end of this FISCAL year' - which means by April 2022 😦
not sure what they'd do after season 4 rerun if that's true though
i dont think they do them monthly, i sat in on the two before the last investors' conference call that was in july.
oh, hold up.
"Expanding our brands’ universes and bringing them to a significantly wider
audience through F2P on consoles, PC and mobile, including Tom Clancy’s The
Division® Heartland, Tom Clancy’s The Division mobile, Tom Clancy’s XDefiant
and a to-be-announced mobile game for Q4 2021-22."
it's too grouped up, idk.
oh, shiz.
"Three games approved in China: Rabbids Adventure Party, Mario + Rabbids: Kingdom Battle and
Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 have received official approval in China."
looks like the tencent partnership is starting to show dividends, our boi div2 got approved.
Watching this tv sho slasher pretty good show so far
Okay so I finished s.01 of Loki.
really not sure if i like it more or not now.
I ended up liking it more after the last episode. Or at least I'm more excited for season 2 now than I was before.
The final stinger bit was a bit confusing for me, won't spoil it for others here.
maybe its because i havent seen the other shows yet, it'll probs make more sense then.
It ties into Wandavision's ending, the new Spiderman, Dr. Strange and Ant Man movies
yeah last one i saw was endgame, then this.
Yeah the ending of loki sets up the next wave of movies
idk, the idea of "waves of movies" is a little....weird to me.
Kind of like how all the previous Marvel movies had an infinity stone or the post credits would show Thanos. The next movies are leading to the new big villian
oh i get what it is, but serialisation was never a fave thing of mine.
imagine needing to watch 10 different movies before just to understand the newest one that you randomly found on netflix or disney+
thanh let people like what they like
no i'm just saying
you can be into it,i've watched every MCU movie just right before Endgame
i'm just saying that it can be really annoying
that is really not what i was saying, just that serialisation is not for me
Actually the number doesn't need to be posted, just the name.
@grizzled turtle see?
Ya
They have fancy name i couldn't write
It sometimes works if you just use @ then press down on the keyboard.
@dense parcel like that.
Howdy u rang
How are you riri?
Go take a nap
Sounds like a plan
what about you? anything planned?
it ruined iron man 3 by forcing people to have to have seen the avengers. which sucks because they screwed over the "demon in a bottle" storyline for that. they didnt get it right until thor ragnarok.
ngl, I understood about 3 words in that.
all im saying is when they started shifting from standalone (with a connecting post-credit scene) to a connected arc, they got it wrong and ruined what was supposed to be iron man's biggest storyline.
And what is that?
i never trust random links with no descriptions given.
sorry, just not into comics that much for that to matter to me.
im sure it was a big let down, but it's like me complaining about the Zariman-10-0 lore being lessened on here, ain't no one gonna know what im talking about.
It's the closed beta of Hell Let Loose for PS5
oh god, it's another pvp military open world shooter.
break out the WarZ bingo.
and it's already got paid DLC, nail #2 in the coffin.
iirc hell let loose has a lot of cool particle effects going on (which probably means my system would have trouble running it)
pretty looking game, just not something i think i could play. probably get bored after admiring the scenery.
im sure it's fun and all, but just posting a random link on a public disocrd like that is more likely to get you banned than a convo sparked.
@dense parcel so you like horror shows?
Saying it because of slasher
😂 Started and on season 3?
Damn quite binge
Si
Very interesting show
People be getting fucked in so many different ways
Solid show

https://youtu.be/WsGAQjWuIcE new funny bug in game
Anyone tell me fastest way to reach SHD 1000 ....
play darkzone, missions with directives, play summit on legendary from 1 to 10 with all directives and wipe at floor 11
Yo so I updated the controller it right but it will only work probably when I have it plugged in , once I take it out from the type c . The binds are messed up again . Are you playing with the controller connected or you are playing wirelessly
Wireless dongle, but wired works fine too, have you checked in Xbox Accessories app to make sure its not using some weird onboard settings for you bindings? (Not sure if the standard controllers even have that option) Also are you playing games through Steam or another app? Cause Steam sometimes loads community profiles that can over ride default layouts.
Also to note, I did try Bluetooth which seemed to be fine also but had a slight input delay so I went back to using the dongle.
Beyond that, im not sure what would be causing the issues. Might have to browse the Microsoft forums and see if anyone has experienced the same issues and hopefully found a solution.
Ahh , you have a dongle . Cause I’m simply using Bluetooth off my mobo, but I’ll definitely check everything else out , if not I’ll just just the cable for the division, since it’s the only game that is tweaking , every other game is fine
Iv never had much luck with controllers over BT in the past, its why I went ahead and got a dongle, sucks cause im hurting on USB ports as it is but its worth not having the headache of disconnects and input lag 🙂 Granted my mobo's BT might be faulty but thats an issue I dont feel like fighting.
Also if Div2 is the only game having this issue, there might be something else at fault. But regardless, I hope you get it figured out!
It’s hot
do y'all ever eat something you know upsets your stomach, but you do it anyway
and then get a bad tummy
I do that but it don’t hurt
i am lactose intolerant yes
no milk man i see
i feel like a degen but if a baby is lactose intolerant, does that mean hes moms mi-
would give him tummy ache?
yes but no but also yess
one has to sacrifice wellbeing for the milkies
^^^^^^
afaik, babies are almost never lactose intolerant, but develop it later on (which is actually standard for most animals and primitive humans - our ability to avoid developing lactose intolerance is only really possible because we continue to maintain a regular intake of lactose thanks to farming, plus some lucky genetic adaptions)
That's only a vague rerendering of overheard information though, if Aspect or someone knows better, take their word for it not mine
@grizzled turtle in this case, it's stuff ive missed in WF.
Warframe.
Ohh have fun
I did not sleep well
mood
I had 2 dreams and a hallucination
tell us about it since you brought it up
My first one was about getting an EB
The second however
In the second one I don’t clearly remember but it had to do with spiders
Like I could control them or something idk
Speaking of which I just found one in my bathroom
alright who tagged me
Hey guys a questin im considering returning for divition 2 but i was wondering what changes or new stuff has been implemented since gangs of NY if anyone is up for a quick chat so i can make an informed dicision it would be most helpfull
insert You Died meme
Glad d2 got cross play finding matches n whatnot much better these days
Anyone play d2
occasionally
typically just to steal my friends account to do raids
cba to farm my own account
Sucks when u want a epic ar n u jeep getting fusion rifles smh
infinite ammo either way now!
Not with fusion rifle😒
All primary weapons.
are they not primary weapons anymore?
I seem to remember at least one of them having white ammo.
any game in particular or just in general?
D2
Literally haven't played it since they yanked out Titan/Io/Mars.
got a little annoyed after my gear was made useless.
Well back on battle.net I was all about that Void, but I kinda jumped between Golden Gun and Void after a while.
Oh aight is the blue one ok
loved me some spider void bow.
Acrstrider? Super fun, just not my thing.
Des2 is pretty well balanced across the board, at least it was back when I played last year.
U should play it more
honestly, I see no reason to.
I've broken 100k triumph score, I've got Blacksmith title, I've even completed most of the PvP weapon quests.
I know there's new content, but I have 0 interest anymore in des2. I just cba to chase that Light Level.
U sticking with Warframe
oh I was with WF long before des2, and I'll probs be with it long after div2 as well.
How come
It's just my thing. Seen enough changes in it to know that I'll never really get sick of it forever.
everyone's got a "thing" like that, I'm sure.
is d2 division 2 ? lol @dense parcel
Destiny 2
Si
have funs
🙂
Yeah I thought it might confuse ppl, so I started using "des2" on this server.
thoughtful
Playing gambit atm shits fun
They add the gambit armours back yet?
Idk
Reckoning, armours that give bonuses to mote dropping, kill streaks, etc.
Yeah still gone then.
was in a separate mode, could get some pretty crazy buffs.
Sad
gn
Sleep well
max base power is 1330, no? thats a lil shabby.
Si still long way to go
Thats this season, yeah?
Didn't it just finish? Or is that the one that just started?
Yeah, it'd be the one that just started.
So far i'm loving the new exotic and the warlock's exotic is a favorite of mine from D1 so i'm glad to have it back.
The fusion rifle changes and fusion rifle mods are hella nice to have on the artifact, as well.
I think everyone's at least jumped into des2 at one point.
Ever since they backpedaled on the whole sunsetting thing, i've put a bit more effort into it.
I'm waiting for a decent enough sale, then I might give Beyond Light a try.
Same here Rivens.Hopefully we get one soon.
There's one right now, but 35% off is a bit on the low side for me.
Works out in my favor, all I had for it was Forsaken, so the Legendary edition works for now. Ill worry about the Witch stuff once it hits a deep sale later down the road.
👀 Mar playing D2?
Just got off work, so not at the moment, later today once i get some sleep maybe
We should play it sometimes Mars
Tho I'm mainly in gambit n cruisible cuz of lack of dlcs
Doesn't D2 have cross play?
remember when ubisoft gave ACU for free when the church burnt down?
Does now ya
Ah neat so i can just grab it on game pass
I mean destiny 2 free to play
Ah rip bozo to me then
Oh im stupid i somehow interpreted that as only the f2p parts of D2 is cross play
Before you ask idk how my mind came to that either
How u been tho
Been doing well. You?
Not too shabby
What games has everyone been playing as of late
Only two i play consistently atm til the barrage of games coming out soon would be FFXIV and LLB
Llb?
lethal league blaze, i'm guessing
Yep
Wut u been playing aspect
