[turbid sun]

Oh it's 100% cringe lmao but it works

no threepeater isn't good for anything

The birds in general suck

[limpid reef]

i wonder if maybe sticking some threepeaters in would give some extra support to the lanes being compromised by BIRD

[turbid sun]

you could get a lot more value out of any other plant

Also have you lost yet at all

[limpid reef]

not yet

in campaign, rather

pennys pursuit has been givin me a hard time

[turbid sun]

oh sick because I lost miserably on Penny's pursuit lmao

[limpid reef]

hehe

which stage?

[turbid sun]

I don't remember but I was at it for a bit

[limpid reef]

were you on easy

[turbid sun]

probably

[limpid reef]

i wouldnt recommend doing anything other than easy, maybe you can get away with normal on stage 1

the zombies are mean sobs

[turbid sun]

normal is in fact NOT very normal

[limpid reef]

sometime i should go count how many repeater shots a zombie on normal can take versus the campaign

even on easy its way more than typical

[turbid sun]

I mean I suppose it's better than other games where normal difficulty is the equivalent of can complete it in my sleep

[turbid sun]

Do it

btw since under the difficulties it says lvl 2 zombies for easy, level 4 or normal, and level 6 for hard, I'm assuming that each level is +100% of a normal zombie's stats

Damn man what gargantuars are literally immortal in normal

I used two cherry bombs, several melon pults, FOUR BONK CHOY plant food effects (stacked with several bonk choys and it STILL lived

[limpid reef]

figured it would be closer to +50% but

could be

[turbid sun]

Considering what just happened with that gargantuar I'm pretty sure that it is +100% per level

Because it sure seemed to have quadruple the health

[limpid reef]

would actually be quintuple

[turbid sun]

same thing

[limpid reef]

smiles

[turbid sun]

also no?

because level 1 is base

so +100% per level would only be quad

[limpid reef]

oh i kinda figured they were level 0 by default

no that makes more sense though

[turbid sun]

level 0 would be weird

[limpid reef]

probably!

[turbid sun]

anyways yeah if you don't have any op plants then anything else other than easy is virtually impossible

well besides on stage 1 you can get away with normal but even then it's still extremely difficult

I had to sacrifice 3 of my lawnmowers 30 seconds into the game

[limpid reef]

smiles

its really brutal

higher level plants would help, too

oh btw theres a level set that gives you sunflower seed packets up rn

[turbid sun]

Yeah it doesn't help I also made huge mistakes based off campaign interactions

Like placing a bonk choy to deal with an explorer zombie (torch) and I watched it proceed to not kill the zombie and burn through everything and take my lawnmower

[limpid reef]

YEAHAHA no ill just be like oh yeah a repeater can deal with that guy EXTREMELY LOUD INCORRECT BUZZER

[turbid sun]

lmao yeah atp I'm considering just letting it take my lawnmower early game so I don't have to waste sun for no reason

I'm determined to clear stage 1 on normal but I have 1 life left so

[spice obsidian]

I've been on Discord since 2020. I've had several AI PFP's. And several PFP's I drew myself. And several ones I made digitally. Photos. Screenshots. Idk why what profile pic anyone uses would decide if they're an artist or not 😅

But maybe you were joking.

[turbid sun]

okay yeah the dragonfly zombies are essentially immortal in normal too

[limpid reef]

smiles

cant easily block em, either

might just wanna take tall nut

[turbid sun]

Explorer zombies burn them like twenty seconds later anyways

[limpid reef]

oh yeah!

does winter melon put em out

[turbid sun]

I don't think so honestly

[limpid reef]

honestly dont remember

[turbid sun]

same

winter pult is genuinely way too expensive in pvz2 just to not feel that powerful due to the sheer amount of health the zombies have

[limpid reef]

slowing zombies is crazy useful though

[turbid sun]

especially when you spend 500 sun just for it to be a sandstorm that spawns an imp on top of it so it just dies

[limpid reef]

especially if you pair it with something like spikerock

[turbid sun]

I don't think you realize how immortal the zombies are in normal

[limpid reef]

oh theyre ridiculous LMAO

[turbid sun]

I'm still determined to win at least one stage in normal

[tall forge]

Currently now level 35

[ornate zinc]

doing RR community maps to clear weekly

[tall forge]

Xp does slow down a lot but it’s still passive xp

Got to level 38 then the server for the lobby closed

Doing bot lobbies again

[gloomy shuttle]

I might join on one soon, though I'd hope I can get kills out of them since I barely scratched off that. X/

[ornate zinc]

Sure you can join

[gloomy shuttle]

Lemme switch my Switch.

[ornate zinc]

Just land anywhere

[normal eagle]

Literally me

[tall forge]

I have more fun in bot lobby’s than fighting a sweat

[soft wasp]

finally

dab is on the shop and i bought it

[hazy rune]

What does s+ rank give you it’s so hard unless you in a bot lobby

[hazy rune]

Zero build is best fortnite i wish they added back delay for building

Build mode should have delay to it

[hazy rune]

Guess what

No one deserves to buy a 500 dollar underpowered console

400 dollars would of been the sweet spot

[charred axle]

Thank Goodness they Met in the Middle with 450 for the Console Itself then

[hazy rune]

Im not buying it yet

Im still on old gen consoles lol

I am getting the ps5 really soon though

Xbox series s i might buy used as a gamepass ultimate console

And something to take on the go

Im buying the ps5 full price though

[charred axle]

That's Fair. Might be Best to Wait for the Holidays since there'll be more Nintendo Games to Choose from then

[hazy rune]

No im getting the ps5 around black friday since i dont want to buy it full price

Im already planning on buying a new phone

Ill keep my current console

Do you think i should sell my xbox one though since i had it since December 2018

[ornate zinc]

Just get a pc tbh

[hazy rune]

I already have one

[ornate zinc]

Upgrade one

[hazy rune]

Well consoles don’t have problems

[tall forge]

I’ve slowly been shifting to PC issue is some games I have saves and stuff only on ps

And also some friends

[hazy rune]

I feel like i might break something lol

And prebuilts are terrible

[tall forge]

Personally my prebuilt is fine

I’ve really had only 1 issue which had a simple fix

[hazy rune]

Is a ryzen 5 5600x3d good for a budget computer?

[tall forge]

No idea I ain’t good with specifics

[hazy rune]

Do you recommend no bios updates if your computer works completely fine?

I personally wouldn’t recommend overclocking

I was thinking about getting a intel macbook but it’s old and it’s discontinued

Like for a laptop

[tall forge]

Well if you wanna game I wouldn’t use a Mac book

[hazy rune]

If you don’t game on laptops

Like wouldn’t it be good for everything else

The desktop would be running windows

[normal eagle]

[tall forge]

Poor 252 games that won’t be played

[normal eagle]

dont worry, some of them do make it out

Take fall guys out if you got it before it got delisted

Or you can refund it if you played it less than 2 hours

I think it has to be in the last 30 days though

[normal eagle]

bought it on launch

[hazy rune]

Oh

[normal eagle]

alot of the 'dont play' grouping is games i do like to play alot but just kind of burnt out on

NEW AVATAR COLLAB WAVE COMING SOON 🔥

(via @SamLeakss, skins still unknown) https://t.co/hSPWGdsJPg

vxTwitter / fixvx · Aug 11, 2025, 6:00 PM

Maybe?

But fr, it likely will be Azula and another character.

[ornate zinc]

Finally sokka

[gloomy shuttle]

They have his Space Sword and I don't think it's available in the shop yet.

So I hope they finally get him in.

Just so we get the main group.

But my best bet will be around the month of September.

Also, apparently there's some rumors saying that Olivia Rodrigo is the next headliner?

In Fortnite Festival.

[tall forge]

Cringe

From hearing her 3 songs in festival I do not like her music

[gloomy shuttle]

I just think her songs come off as very formulatic, especially from the three I've heard in Festival.

[hazy rune]

Can you get the backbling for web purchase and refund it afterwards

[tall forge]

Probably

[hazy rune]

Like the item you bought

Like for the free backbling

[gloomy shuttle]

They all follow the same ol' trope, but I don't hate the songs per say.

Good 4 U and Vampire we're fine, but they don't tell anything new that any other artist has done.

It's just the "I got cheated/dumped on" type of songs.

But in all fairness, I don't keep up a ton on her music nowadays, so I can't speak if things have been different.

[ornate zinc]

Bleh, i can’t stand being around another relationship

Why would i want to hear a song about a breakup

[gloomy shuttle]

Nono, I don't mind break-up songs in general tho! That's not much of the issue anyway.

I said that I like Good 4 U and Vampire fine, there was another song from Olivia that I also liked fine musically.

[hazy rune]

I don’t buy things from the item shop much so i decided to get a jam track

Im subscribed to fortnite crew mostly

[ornate zinc]

I just don’t like relationships especially from people my age

[gloomy shuttle]

I also didn't mean that either.

I'll just stop now. ._.

[lyric beacon]

not really relevant to the current conversation probably but not posting in the main chat

good book so far

[ripe torrent]

oh-

[lyric beacon]

certainly not a light read though, but this guy's really good at making academic lit feel like a novel

[normal eagle]

whats it about?

[lyric beacon]

how Gen Z growing up with social media (and phones/portable tech in general) has caused a fundamental negative shift in social interactions and mental health
which isn't necessarily anything groundbreaking, but it goes way more in depth than most other stuff I've seen in the past

[normal eagle]

ooh

[lyric beacon]

once I've finished reading this, I'm gonna mail it and 2 other books by the same author to a friend who's going into teaching, though i think they're also just good books for anyone to read

[normal eagle]

yeah ill have to check it out

I'll DM you some amazon links to em

"Watch, the comments gonna say it was delayed to change the animation style"

[normal eagle]

literally the 2nd comment 😭

[sand wraith]

People too blind for nostalgia

[normal eagle]

like... it doesnt look awful at all

it didnt bother me at all, what bothered me was... do we need a shrek 5?

[sand wraith]

The executives needed

[normal eagle]

sadly true

[brave barn]

Both Shrek and Spiderverse 3 releasing on 2027 the world needs to behave so we can all experience peak cinematography

[ornate zinc]

@normal eagle did you find the hiding orange

Here his last hiding spot

[normal eagle]

ive not found him yet

[gloomy shuttle]

I'm not super hopeful with Shrek 5 tbh. But I also don't fully mind the new look on the characters that much.

Admittedly it was weird, but not like it was ruining the movie or anything.

[hollow willow]

nooooo

[limpid reef]

there was a shrek 4??

[hollow willow]

people's fault for complaints

[turbid sun]

Honestly I think the only Shrek I've ever seen was Shrek 3 because I watched it in school

[limpid reef]

why are there five shreks !

i only knew about three

[turbid sun]

Honestly I also only ever heard of three

also wait no I think I also watched 1 in school too

in fact I'm pretty sure I've watched all 3 Shrek movies in school

[limpid reef]

i dont really watch movies

[turbid sun]

but idk about 4 since I've never heard of it

[limpid reef]

i dont have the attention span

[turbid sun]

same!

I usually only watch movies when my family does a movie night

Other than that I won't go out of my way personally to watch a movie

I suppose other than go to the movie theater with friends or sm

hmm I think the only movie I've enjoyed watching alone was inception

[gloomy shuttle]

Shrek 4 was supposedly the final film, but now Universal probably told DreamWorks on reboot/revive the Shrek side of the films or something. :v

[turbid sun]

also about spider verse I've practically just gave up hope for that movie

[hollow dove]

Oh I’m the same as well

[turbid sun]

atp a fan fic is gonna go viral and just be accepted as the canon ending

[limpid reef]

we have dreamworks but when do we get awakeworks

[hollow dove]

2157 trust me

[turbid sun]

only thing is being awake sucks so

[hollow dove]

But dream is bad so

[turbid sun]

the Minecraft YouTuber is a disgrace to the meaning of the word "dream" so he simply doesn't exist in my books

[limpid reef]

i feel like i have more nightmares than dreams

[hollow dove]

I’m sorry but your books are outdated

[turbid sun]

nightmares are common when you're in a bad place mentally so I hope you feel better soon

[limpid reef]

mm

i suppose that makes sense

[turbid sun]

but you can learn to control your dreams too which makes sleeping like the most cool thing ever

like to the point where I look forward to sleeping a lot more than I do waking up

[hollow dove]

You should probably go to the book store and buy some new ones that aren’t outdated vro

[turbid sun]

No such thing as outdated books when knowledge is eternal

[limpid reef]

i think theyre a bit meaner in arena rn

that said i did get 1m points so i think ive got it covered

[ornate zinc]

They nerfed my favorite weapon
Here a video of it before the nerf

[hollow dove]

nuh uh vro

certain books can become outdated

[turbid sun]

Arena isn't that mean

[limpid reef]

yeah i think it was just stacking enemies

anyway this is gonna make me sound like an insane beast but id strongly recommend grave buster for the current board

[turbid sun]

unfortunately insta spam still dominates the arena meta and always will

[limpid reef]

theres a bunch of plant food giving gravestones

[turbid sun]

if you're using real plants besides pokra then when you get into the higher leagues then you're simply not gonna win

[turbid sun]

ah!

[limpid reef]

turn bonk choy into an insta

[turbid sun]

real

[limpid reef]

enforce mint plants are buffed for the current board, too

[turbid sun]

Why did you use a comma

That comma was completely unnecessary

[limpid reef]

i mean it was like the correct thing to do but

no im just inconsistent giggles

[turbid sun]

fair enough I suppose

[limpid reef]

yeah winter melon and bonk choy are the only like. normal plants im using LMAO

[turbid sun]

oh yeah fair

my winterpult is like level 1 so it's borderline useless lmao

[limpid reef]

instant spam being strong is kinda funny because the current plant up for grabs is an instant

works like potato mine but. better??? worse?? not sure

[turbid sun]

What plant is it

[limpid reef]

devour bloom

[turbid sun]

huh

[limpid reef]

it can kill small groups if theyre closely packed enough so its kinda nice for arena

its at like the bottom of the almanac

WRECKER REVOLVERS "DOUBLE PUMP" REMOVED 💔

X · Aug 11, 2025, 10:48 PM

[tall forge]

That’s showing the perfect example on why double pumping was removed

[ornate zinc]

They made a double pump mystic in the bunker, that heals you for every hit

[turbid sun]

NOOOOO

[turbid sun]

That's kinda what I was wondering lmao

[ornate zinc]

That still in br

[tall forge]

At least that’s harder to get

[normal eagle]

yeah theres literally an exotic thats a double pump so...

[ornate zinc]

But it also heal you

[turbid sun]

It can still 200 pump, does 121 to the body, can double pump, AND siphon per hit yet they decide to remove revolver pump

[ornate zinc]

And it no delay switching back

[normal eagle]

cuz its an exotic, exotics kind of are supposed to be broken

[ornate zinc]

Sigh, there goes the meta

I love pistol meta

[normal eagle]

also i found a friend in peak [the game peak]

[turbid sun]

Also when did this happen

Because I'm still double pumping with the revolver as we speak

[turbid sun]

tbf I'm not really sure if it's really still in the class of a pistol

It's basically just the reincarnation of sniper shotgun

but ofc with weaker damage

Like the Mozambique from cod

[ornate zinc]

I’ll be honest

The meta this season is basically destroying escaping as a option without a op weapon

Want to escape in a car, rocket launcher

Shockwave Grenades, also very rare

Launch pad, your enemy can also follow or shoot you down

[turbid sun]

Hard to find

[brave barn]

The Revolver pistol doesn't even need the double pump functionality, it shreds people either way

[ornate zinc]

The rocket launcher, nah you can get one at the vending machine for 600 gold if you complete the daily weapon mission

[turbid sun]

Ah

Not something you can obtain every game

[ornate zinc]

Technically true

As you need gold

[ornate zinc]

140 for me

I can basically do creative once friday after i hit 168

[turbid sun]

What are you doing for XP outside of creative

[gloomy shuttle]

Save the World and BR Bot Quests most likely

[gloomy shuttle]

93, though I wanted to spend some time on the other games I wanna try completing.

[tall forge]

I think almost 40

[thick granite]

Happy birthday

[ornate zinc]

Any quests available and br

Stw xp is slow this time around

The nerf is big

[turbid sun]

Yeah that's what I was noticing

3-4 missions for a single level is pretty terrible

Because each mission is at LEAST 10-15 minutes

[ornate zinc]

Eh around 8- 13 minutes

@turbid sun opinion on the winter alt

[turbid sun]

it's fire, probably the only skin from the pass that I'll use

also what level do you have to be to unlock the winter vers

[ornate zinc]

142

I have bad news about her hair

It floats

[tall forge]

[ornate zinc]

Still

[turbid sun]

why is she side eyeing so hard

[turbid sun]

[ornate zinc]

Taz, i have something to tell you

Evie might get a new reskin this season

[gloomy shuttle]

As far as original skins, I just want the Alien.

[tall forge]

I still want Clyde back

[ornate zinc]

He still in the files

[gloomy shuttle]

Likely be during Fortnitemares tbh, but it's the only one I'd love.

[ornate zinc]

You might well buy the cow slippers as well

[gloomy shuttle]

I got Cat Slippers and that is all I'm buying out of Kicks.

Not wasting on shoes.

Like, out of any cosmetic types. I only care about buying skins, emotes, occasionally pickaxes and gliders and Jam Tracks.

[ornate zinc]

Fair i guess

Now what about the pets cosmetics

[gloomy shuttle]

Maybe.

Depends on how much their price and if the implementation of them is worth it.

Kicks would've been fine if they weren't usually like.. 600-1000.

Jam Tracks are 500 and while it would've also been nice for them to be a tad cheaper.

It's mainly fun to use them casually and mixing up on some Jam Loops especially with friends who might've bought some.

[wild shale]

oh gosh

[gloomy shuttle]

You could this loops like this. lol

[ornate zinc]

She fits in this season

[wild shale]

ah i see

[gloomy shuttle]

I am curious as to how the Simpsons-themed pass will be like in November.

I definitely expect Jonesy and/or Hope "Simpson-ized variations"

And then like.. Krusty the Klown in the Battle Pass or something.

Just give me a few minutes I need to update the game on my PC

and wow is it downloading fast I just started it and it’s already at 3 GB

Download speed is 750 mb

And at 10 GB now

So assuming for the quest we need todo features songs?

[ornate zinc]

Kinda

We’re gonna be doing the same song for a minute and take advantage of milestone and weekly

[wild shale]

[ornate zinc]

The bruno mars season still has the good xp from last season

[tall forge]

Almost done updating

Opening up the game

[ornate zinc]

Just pick the same song as me

[tall forge]

I have no idea if my calibration is still right

Oh that’s what we’re doing

[ornate zinc]

I did say we were taking advantage of milestones and weekly

[tall forge]

Pfff I already did weekly’s lol so just doing this with you

[ornate zinc]

Milestones’s multiplayer stars and playlist

[tall forge]

I guess

I already almost finish all of them

[ornate zinc]

4 to 5 minutes for 15k xp

[tall forge]

Only thing that gives me 30k xp is doing roses (imanbek remix )

Think they fixed the multi select bug

Where if you spam and time it you can pick the same song twice

[hollow dove]

Oh PEAK!?

That means I can download game without side loading

[tall forge]

Nope still works lmao

[tall forge]

No

[hollow dove]

Sad

[hollow willow]

my level is 35 🙁

grinding xp is too weak and creatives are useless

[tall forge]

Also playing on expert technically gives more xp cause you get 450 for gold stars

[ornate zinc]

It not much

But it something

[hollow willow]

dentist tycoon is too slow I can't keep up any long cos it bores me

[tall forge]

It’s more of something you set up while you do something else

[hollow willow]

some creative quests are locked and wait for some days

to unlock quest in 7 days

XP of each creative mode is 5k

too weak

[ornate zinc]

Just do something else

If you have a second monitor watch a movie

I have 11 levels left until i complete the pass until the next update

Aka super styles

[tall forge]

Well don’t have daily quest now unless we back out

[ornate zinc]

Sure let do it

I’ll Change skins

That about 11 more levels now

[tall forge]

2 daily’s are just user over drive with a specific instrument

I didn’t even level up

[ornate zinc]

wth

Well we only need to do the dumb song one more time, before we can do the more better 1 minute song

[tall forge]

Mainly cause I don’t have any good thing for xp for festival now other than 1 song

[ornate zinc]

Yeah we can do that real quick

[tall forge]

This song really is a dumb song

[hollow willow]

I do have two monitors

[tall forge]

At least this song will give me 30k xp

[ornate zinc]

Welp let do the bruno mars theme song

6 times

I don’t need to do bonde anymore thankfully

Gonna back out, it won’t allow me to switch instruments

[tall forge]

Omg og wenegade waider

Oh hey I leveled up cause of that 1 quest

[ornate zinc]

I was gonna respond with something but It’s basically 3 am for me and i forgot the word

[tall forge]

Nah see we gotta do free bird 4 times in a row be here for about 40 minutes

[earnest hill]

Green Ranger is in Fortnite? How hard is it to unlock?

[tall forge]

At the end of the pass

Like second to last page

Last page is white ranger

[earnest hill]

so you have to play/farm a ton?

[tall forge]

Yeah

[earnest hill]

that sucks

how long is it in the pass?

[tall forge]

Wow sneezing messed me up

[tall forge]

13 weeks?

[earnest hill]

hmmm, maybe I'll look into it. It would have to be on my PS5, Fortnite consistantly breaks Fall Guys on my PC

[tall forge]

You could just afk a creative map and rubber band the trigger

And check in every once in awhile

[ornate zinc]

On pc, just press the text box button while shooting a box

[tall forge]

Ngl this is a lame song to get for in the pass

I would’ve preferred die with a smile

[ornate zinc]

It a good song for xp tho

[tall forge]

Eh

I can care less for that

[ornate zinc]

Done with weekly

[tall forge]

I like how 2 daily’s didn’t count despite me nearly getting the song 100% perfect hit notes

[ornate zinc]

I have about 8 levels left

Until level 168

[tall forge]

I swear whenever I play festival with anyone we end up doing this for awhile lol

[ornate zinc]

Boredom tbh

Plus it fun mixing songs

[tall forge]

I have so many song to go through it’s hard to pick

[hollow willow]

I hit 105k xp in parkour

leveled up only 2

[tall forge]

[hollow willow]

smug indeed

[tall forge]

Briefly Rick rolled bear

[ornate zinc]

I took off my headphones

[tall forge]

Oh lmao

When I did that or before

[ornate zinc]

A bit Before

Heating up something to eat, before heading off to sleep

Well this was fun, link
Gonna hop off of fortnite

[tall forge]

See ya

[ornate zinc]

I’ll still be around in chat

Anyway 8 more levels

[hollow willow]

got to go

I will try do other modes such festival, RR etc

[tall forge]

first try

[charred axle]

@ornate zinc My Creative Weekly cap is now empty!

[ornate zinc]

Now we wait until friday for the refresh

[gloomy shuttle]

Yep, I'll be doing the usual when it does.

[tall forge]

Only 1 is new

[gloomy shuttle]

Oh, so it's just more songs from past passes being freed up

[tall forge]

Yup

[gloomy shuttle]

Skrillex is the only new song

[tall forge]

Only new one is the skrillex song

[polar sundial]

super awesome toxic ooze drum texture

I like how the lid came out

[normal eagle]

people are calling peak [the game] friendslop

[ornate zinc]

Isn’t friendslop basically where you work together in a coop game, and their no winning in like a competitive way

[limpid reef]

slop as a suffix confuses me

[normal eagle]

so like... any game you can play with friends

[ornate zinc]

Basically winning in like “you all win” instead of only one person winning

[normal eagle]

helldivers would be friendslop, left 4 dead would be friendslop, deep rock galactic would be friendslop... minecraft would be friendslop

[ornate zinc]

Actually minecraft a weird case

But yeah it does need a different name

Slop is just disrespectful

[normal eagle]

co-op game works just fine

X · Aug 12, 2025, 7:20 PM

[limpid reef]

do people mean that it
that it got popular quickly and is co op?? thats all i can think

[normal eagle]

you play it with friends, its fairly popular so according to twitter its friendslop

[limpid reef]

i imagine like people mean that in the sense that people are gonna drop it quickly since thats been happening with a lot of games since 2020 but

[normal eagle]

to me, it'd be slop if it looked like there was no effort or passion put into the games

[limpid reef]

slop is a word that i just hate now LMAO but that makes sense i reckon

[limpid reef]

thats a cute little thing

[ornate zinc]

I’m pretty sure it being friendslop because there been a bunch of them coming out recently

[normal eagle]

i mean yea kind of... but id only really argue that with REPO tbh

[ornate zinc]

That why the internet been calling it friendslop

[normal eagle]

REPO is the only one id genuinely argue is that cuz to me it just looks like lethal company but with a different artstyle

[ornate zinc]

But the android meme, alpha

Anyway

I know it called coop games, but their a bunch of coop games that does competitive winning than everyone wins

[normal eagle]

thats fair

[ornate zinc]

Again we need a different name than friendslop

[normal eagle]

yea

[gloomy shuttle]

Backstab Slop

[ornate zinc]

That would be something like among us

Not really peak

[gloomy shuttle]

Fair

Group Slop

[ornate zinc]

Too forced

And we’re getting rid of the slop part

@normal eagle

They’re planning something this season

Hmmmm i wonder

[normal eagle]

please, this is the one season a helldivers collab would work

The end overhaul update cope....

[gloomy shuttle]

Sly Cooper

That or re-running Uncharted would be nice too

Even if technically based on their movie versions first, but I prefer the game versions.

[ornate zinc]

I would love sly cooper

I would also love if they could also get sackboy and crash (even if he isn’t own by sony)

[gloomy shuttle]

I doubt they'd be playable in Fortnite. ;-;

[ornate zinc]

If sackboy can appear in playstation all stars, he can appear in fortnite

[gloomy shuttle]

Only because anatomically, they'd have to work around that.

That's different tho!

[ornate zinc]

His rival was big daddy

From bioshock

[gloomy shuttle]

BioShock isn't a Sony-owned IP tho.

[ornate zinc]

Still sackboy was seen using real weapons before

[gloomy shuttle]

No, it's just his anatomy in Fortnite makes it impossible unless they had a work around.

Like a human-scaled mech ala Morty.

[ornate zinc]

Probably

[gloomy shuttle]

That at least would work.

Fortnite unfortunately doesn't have a ton with diverse shapes and sizes to make certain characters possible.

Especially limiting in a regular BR shooter.

So it's usually medium & heavy heighted models.

Unless they drastically change the format, you won't see characters like Crash holding a sniper rifle.

[ornate zinc]

I mean the same can be said about the adventure time character
They usually hold a fictional gun

[gloomy shuttle]

Them holding guns isn't the issue, it's their anatomy.

And if said anatomy can be matched.

The Adventure Time while a tad slim on a few are possible with the human-like proportions they have.

Crash could happen, but they'd have to heighten him up.

[tall forge]

I’ve been noticing that recently

[tall forge]

That whole rivalry was funny all because big daddy was jealous

[turbid sun]

tbf it's an overused word that sounds yucky but itself

[hollow willow]

repo is more goofy than LC

however I really want play PEAK with friends :/

[hollow dove]

I massively disagree. Slop sounds cool for low quality stuff

[turbid sun]

what the hell happened to the blitz map 🫩✌️

[normal eagle]

i dont know if your typing an emoji or a square, but its killing me

[turbid sun]

pluh

it's supposed to be a tired emoji

[normal eagle]

ohh...

yeah no for me its just a box

[turbid sun]

It's a square for me too but I figured it was embedding for y'all lmao

[normal eagle]

nope lol

[turbid sun]

epic gaming...

[long marten]

and yet it's kinda funny that it appears for me so I'd assume there's something going around about it appearing for some people

[turbid sun]

maybe it's because your discord is more updated or something idk

[long marten]

yeah it could be that actually

[turbid sun]

because it is a still relatively new emoji

[long marten]

ah

[tall forge]

Finally got home man it was hot

[brave barn]

Have some soup

[turbid sun]

green sentinel pump and a green shotgun pistol being more than capable of winning you a game is kinda insane

[gloomy shuttle]

DLC Packs are up now

[normal eagle]

maybe its because im not on mobile

[turbid sun]

I'm on mobile and it doesn't show so idk

[normal eagle]

weird

[long marten]

I'm genuinely curious if it shows on pc if anyone is on the desktop client rn

I'd doubt it but it's worth a try anyway

[gloomy shuttle]

Got the Polly DLC.

[ornate zinc]

You’re as beautiful as the day i lost you

[turbid sun]

Double pump using the shotgun pistol and the yoink shotgun is actually unstoppable lmao

[ornate zinc]

We need a new chibi robo game

One that actually good

Wii U was the era where things were hit or miss, or extremely miss

[gloomy shuttle]

Chibi Robo never had a WiiU game

It was on 3DS.

[tall forge]

3Ds was still Wii U era

[ornate zinc]

The late wii and wii u era and early switch era was good to the 3ds

[gloomy shuttle]

Yes, but it came off as if there was a Chibi Robo game on the WiiU.

Cool level 50 in the pass

[ornate zinc]

I’m surprised you didn’t do the method for long

On PS5, you can hold r2 (and L2 if you want) then press the share button, for it to afk

[tall forge]

Eh mainly cause I was busy today and a bit yesterday

[turbid sun]

Works on ps4 too

[tall forge]

And also didn’t want to leave my ps5 on for awhile

[ornate zinc]

congrats

[turbid sun]

Idk why but I'm kinda hyped for fortnitemares

[ornate zinc]

Let see the survey skins for fortnitemares again i suppose

[turbid sun]

I hope they do something similar to 2020 regardless of the hate because that was genuinely one of the most fun eras of fortnite ever

[ornate zinc]

The evie skin was likely made for this season

[turbid sun]

I see a lot of mid 😔🙏

[ornate zinc]

Try this one

They should be releasing sometime this season to next chapter

[turbid sun]

I see peak in the far right of the third row

[ornate zinc]

I see

[turbid sun]

Fire

[ornate zinc]

Indeed

[ornate zinc]

Ngl, you’re probably gonna have to wait until chapter 7 for peak skins

Since season 1 of that chapter seem to be similar to the society theme

[turbid sun]

It's been a while since they've added that to their survey skins, I wonder if they'll ever add it to the game

Because honestly if they did I might main it

[turbid sun]

sounds about right

atp I'm just finishing the pass so I don't have to play for the rest of the season

[gloomy shuttle]

I'm hoping for the Penguin.

[tall forge]

I do like how the penguin looks

[ornate zinc]

i just want the bear

[gloomy shuttle]

I mean, I'm hoping it happens for you mainly.

It'd be nice getting an actual bear skin.

Of the grizzly kinds.

[ornate zinc]

Finally the we bare bears crew

[tall forge]

One of them looks not like the others

Man playing 2 very long songs back to back was an awful idea

But I PB on one of them

[tall forge]

Free bird on expert which I did bad and then Jesus of suburbia and only missed 34 notes

[ornate zinc]

Oooooo

Just realized something

Every season pass had something from the 20th century in chapter 6

Godzilla, Sub-Zero, Robin and Super Man, and finally Green Ranger

[tall forge]

No

[ornate zinc]

With next season being the simpsons

Not all, but some of them

i have a dumb question

what time does this stuff usually happen

besides just "friday"

like what time

[ornate zinc]

When daily reset i think

[hazy rune]

It says before the season ends so the season is ending? Im obviously joking

[hazy rune]

Teach me out to get xp fast please

I did most quests except og

Im not touching that mode

[gloomy shuttle]

Go to Creative map like Dentist Tycoon and grind when you get the reach the Clicker Zone for hours

So far, I'm on Level 98.

Trying to catch up on the games I wanna play through as opposed to just spending it on Fortnite.

Got Mario Wonder on me atm.

[hazy rune]

I just replayed that did you try it on switch 2 yet?

Im not upgrading to switch 2 yet ill wait a few years

[gloomy shuttle]

Not playing it on Switch 2, but on my OG Switch.

<t:1755262833:F>

[wild shale]

ah i see thank you

[hazy rune]

The map isn’t really that good since you have to grind

Some maps just have secret buttons that give you xp that’s easier

[ornate zinc]

Imao, you’re gonna regret that

[gloomy shuttle]

What did I do? ._.

You all are going on it too, it's not a glitched map.

It nothing to worry about tho

@normal eagle someone doesn’t fit in here

Someone who completely doesn’t fit in here

Could be problematic

[gloomy shuttle]

My nose is botherin' me today.

[ornate zinc]

Especially during the morning.

[limpid reef]

its a lot harder than the worlds before it so im like oh i wanna put more thought into what im doing! and then it keeps forcing my hand by picking out 5 plants for me its very exhausting

oh huh

I didn't get it

[limpid reef]

you get 100 seed packets for it after 7 days, or at least i did

[turbid sun]

weird

[limpid reef]

i dont know why its not just... in one of the actual worlds??

[turbid sun]

Oh I see now

I'm on day 5 right now

Okay I know I mentioned this earlier but I HATE how hard it is to get packets for so many plants

Like pepper pult is stuck at level 1 so it does a measly 50 damage compared to my peashooter which does 40 a hit but only costs 75 sun

In fact I hate levels being in pvz2 in general

[ornate zinc]

Yeah, but they’re in the corner, so they’re forgettable unless you land there

[limpid reef]

yeah torchwood pretty much just carried me through a pennys pursuit level lmao

[turbid sun]

My cousin who move back to my state randomly told me yesterday as he was picking up a car for me to buy peak

[normal eagle]

its really fun with friends

[tall forge]

I don’t really have friends that play on PC they mainly play on PS

[normal eagle]

ah, thats fair then

[thick granite]

Peak is so fun

[normal eagle]

love it

[thick granite]

I’m on holidayyyy so I haven’t played the new update yet

It looks so fun

[normal eagle]

i got the game a day before the newest update so no idea what it was like before that lol

[tall forge]

No way the Green Day song holiday?

[thick granite]

The mesa biome rotates with the ice biome

that’s the only difference

Along with new items and stuff

[normal eagle]

yea, the mesa isnt too bad, but id love to see the ice biome

[gloomy shuttle]

Not shocked given how very little pushed on it. Still better priced than Mario Kart World tho. 🥲

[ornate zinc]

Yeah, the controls was gonna be the main complaint
It was expected

[wary loom]

[wary loom]

the huge issue is lack of personality in this game. Arms also was considered to be advanced tech demo, but there were characters with personality and world built around everything

[ornate zinc]

I want y’all to know, this is Sonic’s Green Hill zone, but for shadow now

[gloomy shuttle]

I will stand on that hill that ARMS deserved a lot better than it did. ;-;

Because while it certainly felt more in scale of a tech demo, it at least felt like it could've had more.

[wary loom]

Lack of good marketing killed this game

[gloomy shuttle]

Which is upsetting

[gloomy shuttle]

Better than Drag X Drive's marketing tho!

[wary loom]

the best marketing which Arms had when Arms character joined Smash Ultimate

[wary loom]

there is nothing to promote

[gloomy shuttle]

It had marketing during the launch period.

Just not vocally.

[ornate zinc]

Honestly the issue i have with this era, is the fact that most of the new ip games shown, are just tech demo with kinda no personality

[wary loom]

You can compare Arms marketing and Splatoon marketing

[gloomy shuttle]

They kinda had to when the WiiU was tanking badly.

[wary loom]

I guess they wanted to avoid controversions so instead of people on wheelchair they used nameless machines

[gloomy shuttle]

Splatoon was probably the most for Nintendo on a new IP that they try pushing hard and it succeeded.

ARMS was in an unfortunate case where due to them NEEDING the Switch to succeed they had to loosen their belts and launch with a big slate.

Because they didn't wanna repeat a failure.

[ornate zinc]

Wondering if this would’ve been a arm spinoff if they didn’t avoid the controversy

[gloomy shuttle]

Nah, it wouldn't have been.

Different team.

[ornate zinc]

Fair i guess

[gloomy shuttle]

EPD4 made Drag X Drive.

Which are the Wii/Switch Sports game devs

[gloomy shuttle]

ARMS was made by the Mario Kart team (EPD9), so they've been too busy with them or takes a higher priority over a relatively niche IP.

[ornate zinc]

This era is exciting, but seem like anything they wanna experiment on just has no charm to it

[gloomy shuttle]

For Nintendo or you meaning Mario?

[hazy rune]

Fortnite im going to stop playing for today

Also why is voice reporting always on for under 18

[ornate zinc]

Nintendo

[gloomy shuttle]

Aah yeah. Tbh, while I appreciate seeing new IP's from Nintendo. I wasn't as excited for Drag X Drive tbh.

[hazy rune]

Ok what performance difference would a get from a xbox one s to a ps5 slim

Ik 60 fps fall guys+ 120fps Fortnite (only on monitors since my tvs don’t support it)

[hazy rune]

I have my wii u still but im selling it

[gloomy shuttle]

It admittedly looked a bit uninteresting when they revealed it.

[hazy rune]

also should I delete nintendo network ID account since I am?

[gloomy shuttle]

No, you can make a Nintendo account and link your ID account.

[hazy rune]

Since that doesn’t have 2fa

[hazy rune]

Oh i have a nintendo account but what if i sell my wii u and 3ds

Network id has no security basically it’s just a password

[ornate zinc]

That been also the beta testing for the private beta

[gloomy shuttle]

Which doesn't shock me at all. Especially with them making this a $20 digital game.

Like, it's still priced better than say.. an $80 Mario Kart game.

But it doesn't look interesting or charming enough to care about getting it.

[hazy rune]

Is digital better since im thinking about buying a xbox series as a side portable powerhouse

Like it would be nice for trips

[gloomy shuttle]

ARMS mainly sold me because of it's presentation and especially the character designs for the fighters.

[ornate zinc]

And then it stayed on the switch 1 for no reason

[hazy rune]

I don’t see the nintendo switch 2 as a console that would be like get that right now

[ornate zinc]

Despite needing a sequel for the switch 2

[hazy rune]

I saw tons of switch 2’s at Walmart but i didn’t buy it yet

[gloomy shuttle]

Unfortunately Mario Kart takes priority right now. 😭

So no ARMS 2 yet.

[hazy rune]

Probably waiting a few years so the demand can lower

[gloomy shuttle]

But I've been pleaing for a sequel.

[hazy rune]

Mario kart 8 deluxe is good enough for me at the moment

Mario kart world is actually on the card?

I might buy it separately then

[gloomy shuttle]

$80 tho

[hazy rune]

My hands are too small for my phone lol

So should i just do the bundle?

[charred axle]

Yes

[hazy rune]

I wish it was preinstalled just like the wii u not a digital code

[charred axle]

If it Doesn't Say "Game Key Card" on the Box, then the Game Data is on the Card

[gloomy shuttle]

Unfortunately it would be a digital copy, but you can get a separate physical version. Just you pay $30 more

[hazy rune]

Is it really worth it to spend 30 extra dollars for that?

Ok i will buy physical

[gloomy shuttle]

I mean personally.. no. But if you want it physical, sure.

[hazy rune]

What if they end support i want a refund

[gloomy shuttle]

Mario Kart World is an alright game, but $80 is too much to buy on it's own for the contents it got currently.

[charred axle]

Depends on if you Really Prefer Digital over Physical, and if you Really wanna Keep a Permanent Copy of the Game without Needing to Download It

[hazy rune]

Without a microsd express card how much space does it take up

[gloomy shuttle]

It got a really nice soundtrack, I personally liked World's roster currently (though I wish there was a better way to clutter out the costumes filling up the slots) and more sorting options beyond just the two available.

[hazy rune]

If you buy physical most content is on the cartridge instead of all on the console

You just have to download some things

[gloomy shuttle]

The tracks range from very good to eh. They didn't cook a ton on Battle Mode tho, but no worse than OG 8.

[hazy rune]

For example mario wonder is like 50mb if it’s physical
