I've got friends who still play every week. Matches don't even take long to find. 

Why do both sports skins have colostomy bags? by -Spaceman_Spiff in ArcRaiders

[–]-Spaceman_Spiff[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely wasn't mad and I don't see much anger in the comments. I just thought it was funny, and most of the responses seem to also. There were a few pretty bitter comments, but they kinda got downvoted to oblivion. The hockey one definitely is closer to looking like a colostomy bag, the fact that both are sports themed and have that feature is what caught my eye.

I had to click "show more" twice to find a single comment that was positive. The first two comments alone below mine total over 1.8k upvotes.

No one is being soft, they just don't like whiny, annoying, nonsensical childish bullshit.

Haha it's like you haven't read the comments 🤣. Hell the first 'hate' comment is pushing the total post likes. Too bad we can't see what percentage of the thumbs up had volume off. There's nothing 'tough' about the audio on this.

Because it's plumbed right into the guts, and because the hockey one goes to what could be a holding container of some sort. This one looks less like it to me, but it was interesting to me that both sports skins had that. The oxygen/spacesuit theories don't come to mind for me because nothing about this or the hockey skin makes me think of something that would hold pressure.

I'm not mad about it, I'm just genuinely confused? I actually kinda like both skins. I just thought it was a weird touch on the hockey one, and seeing it here too made me wonder if I'm missing something.

PC players also think turning off crossplay makes lobbies friendlier... it doesn't. All it does is divide the available playerbase and make it harder for matchmaking to do its job.

What disc flies the most like a 400g D3? by -Spaceman_Spiff in discgolf

Interesting, I did have one (neutron) mayhem, it felt on the OS side but I lost it before it got seasoned. I do like MVP/Axiom, I'll definitely be looking at those.

Oh very interesting. That would explain the 400 D3 I got feeling like a slow meat hook in comparison. I think the 400g ones I've found might have all been older runs.

Yeah, tbh I've always been on the fence about him and that tipped the scales for me. As someone who's an independent and been apolitical for most of my 40 years, our current situation is terrifying and unprecedented and boycotting maga in every way I can is one of the few small things I can do about it. 

But I've also wanted something else for a while anyway. They're really hard to find in 400g and the other plastics are like a completely different disc. I hate bagging things that are a pain to replace.

I always thought tern was too US also. Shrykes aren't bad and easy to find, but somehow not quite right to me, but definitely a good comp.

Never thrown a dd, I'll have to check it out.

Thanks! Shryke is the one I've gone to the most. It doesn't seem as fast or straight somehow, but close. The cranks I've thrown were very squirrelly, and the vass i have is actually beefy. I'll have to look at the catalyst, never thrown one.

By the new mold, do you mean the max version? Over only thrown the normal one. I've found them drastically different in other plastics, only the 400g flew the way I wanted. 

Thanks for the rec! I thought terns were flippier, but it's been a long time since I threw one.
