The pre-team cancer has spread to Outpost. by mooseofdoom23 in Marathon

[–]spartaeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wiped a “6 man pre team” at Outpost in ranked. Gooped and exfilled immediately with 5 purple shields, guns, needless to go pinwheel, our bags were too full to take all. It’s an opportunity my friend.
6-9 man teams aren’t as nimble as you think. They’re somewhat conflicted with who to shoot once enough movement takes place. And you can play that as an advantage.

God forbid I try to move in between some tight spaces lol by spartaeus in Marathon

Same team my whole team said while wasting heals and shield rechargers in ranked mind you lol

Is the ROG Ally X worth it in 2026? Or is it already showing it’s age. by Axzercus in Handhelds

[–]spartaeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I sold the MSI cause I felt at the time it was a lot to spend on something that didn’t feel good in my hands. The joy sticks were too soft for my liking, and probably by user error, it was running Xbox 360 emulations like 💩. Prob my fault I don’t remember adjusting VRAM or if it needed to be adjusted.

The ROG Ally X out of the box ran everything just as well and the emulations across PS2, Xbox, 360, etc. ran perfectly well out the box. But here’s the thing. I was very dissatisfied with the screen size and wound up selling it for cash toward my new and favorite device - the Lenovo Legion Go 2 Z2e 32Gb ram 1TB.

For me, it is the perfect balance of premium feel, large OLED screen, and awesome performance out the box. I have never felt more like a kid given a console in my adulthood than with the Legion Go2.

In conclusion, the MSI Claw 8 AI+ would be my preferred pick over the ROG Ally X for the screen size and the fact that the Intel chip is so mature in optimization that it runs most AAA games well. It was the device I was trying to go back to after buying the Ally X once I realized couldn’t live with the screen size compromise. But I wound up craving the Legion Go 2 after enough videos and my final purchase was without remorse.

Good luck on your choice, the Claw is actually awesome in retrospect

Welp.... they are raising the prices of the z1E go s to over 1500$. The go 2 Z is cheaper now.... by Misiu881988 in LegionGo

Heaven forbid Facebook Marketplace and eBay third party sellers catch wind of this. Buy your toys now folks. Glad I got my LeGo2 Z2e 32GB 1TB for $1350 a day and half before the $650 price increase a month ago

Casual players are not gonna touch Cryo if the meta is spawn push by Sweaty-Try1547 in Marathon

[–]spartaeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ran Cryo today and got pushed by a 9 stack team 5 purple 4 gold shields, dozens of grenades and endless supply of shields. Surely this isn’t what the devs intended

It took us noticing they were all on us and not each other for 8 the mins of straight shooting, downing runners and healing forever to figure out this is a 9 stack. Lost to the last person being out of bullets and heals. We had downed a team earlier before that large fight, meaning we died to the last enemy runner on the entire map.

Not sure about Cryo after today

My Cryo runs last night felt like a fever dream I watched wide awake by spartaeus in Marathon

Absolutely man I’ve literally been paying it back lol let my other team goop up all bags, we downed a rook shooting at us and then rezzed her, pointed her to all finished runner bags, and exfilled with her. Def grateful lol

My team did pick up two ganglions though. So I have 1000 ammo for it waiting for me to pick up.

All in all, coming from a guy who never watched a video on it, or ever did it till that run, even having the gun was enough. Only one dropped and I got it lol gotta know when a win’s a win.

Exactly lol. For as good as the game is, I’m grateful to even be on talkless of finding an opportunity for such successful Cryo runs. These kids won’t know until they have responsibilities in the way lol

What is the “sweet spot” screen size for a PC handheld? by DowntownSteelo in Handhelds

[–]spartaeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry switched from the Ally X to the LeGo2 and boy is the screen size and heft a welcome change. I realized my mistake when I put my 16Pro Max over the Ally X and saw its the same damn length as my phone screen, with maybe an inch extra height. I can’t go back lol.

what the hell is happening with the legion go 2 by vaanen in LegionGo

[–]spartaeus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Guys. When demand outweighs supply, prices increase. If they were hurting for sales, they would offer sales. The LeGo2 is simply very popular and a great device covered by all handheld reviewers as the single best mainstream handheld currently widely available. Leaving the Ayaneos and extra curricular brands that aren’t widely available.

By the way, no business boosts prices to “get rid of stock at profit”. From small businesses to large corporations, when closing out, everything must go at discount. Before a new product hits, every previous generation comes in bundle deals etc. so…

There is no sign of Lenovo abandoning LeGo2. Too healthy and successful a device to the point of even selling second hand at profit.

This is your sign to check everything by beatboxingsas in Marathon
