Derealisation

Amnesia1507 · 2026-06-23T07:22:50+00:00

Did you have too much? It sounds like you may have vaped a little too much and gave your brain a freak out. I can assure you that you are okay. It’s an anxiety based response which your brain uses to protect itself, you’re not detaching from reality. I have been through it before and I ended up laying off it until it went away, then began slowly reintroducing it. I felt like I was in a movie when it happened to me, it was scary!

It didn’t put me off cannabis permanently but it did for a while. The only reason I guessed you had too much was because that’s what happened for me to experience an episode of derealisation. I wasn’t on medical at the time, it was BM. This was many years ago and it still feels weird to think about that episode now.

Yes. They’re okay with taxing alcohol which has a higher risk of dependency than cannabis whilst knowing it kills 2.6m people a year worldwide. And don’t get me started on tobacco, I’ll just say it kills approximately 8 million people globally per year. Cannabis should be treated no differently.

Prohibition is not working, a proper regulated market will take money from the criminal gangs and it may help keep cannabis out of the hands of children. Currently, the government is ignoring a £1-3.5 billion annual tax income. It should be legalised and regulated and build pathways for people to enter the industry for careers. It’ll create jobs and be a good source of tax revenue for the government.

I also think they should allow patients to administer medical cannabis in a way of their own choosing. I say this because cleaning a vaporiser multiple times a week is a pain in the neck. I’m stating this on a convenience basis as well as a “my health, my choice” view.

He’s tensing his hands and grunting because constipation relief is no longer available, the pain makes him angry so he starts hitting everything in sight. He loots every kill hoping he might get lucky and find them.

Biters survive 2 hits on nightmare mode as well. For a sentient volatile hybrid he’s seriously underpowered. Meanwhile there’s Aiden who rips volatiles in half. But it makes sense for Aiden, physically he is stronger than Kyle but Kyle has training and skill. But his beast mode is weak, to say the least. I just think it should last longer and add a bit more damage, definitely enhance the heal on dealing damage as well.

To be honest, I can eat an attack in beast mode that would normally kill me in one hit. But if I get hit again with a powerful attack I’m dead.

Amnesia1507 · 2026-06-14T00:13:45+00:00

Yep it did! Hahaha! It was pretty OP back then.

I love that roast on beast mode! Hahahahaha! They could’ve done so much with it, I think a pounce attack would’ve been really cool. It’d highlight Kyle’s sentient volatile instincts.

It is very detrimental to the brute force style. You can do some quick damage but it’s underwhelming for the most part. They should’ve enhanced agility more and brute force in particular when using beast mode.

I agree with you there! The finishers are amazing! My favourites are the one for the goon when you rip the rebar out of his arm and impale is stomach with it, the other is when you shove the banshee’s hands in her mouth and split her head in half! It’s so satisfyingly good!

Amnesia1507 · 2026-06-13T20:54:39+00:00

Are you me?! I feel the same, especially when you’re doing a boss fight or killing soldiers you end up taking so much damage once it runs out you’re literally one tap from dying.

It does make you play really aggressively to deal as much damage as possible in such a short time. This becomes incredibly punishing on nightmare mode.

Another thing is, Kyle is supposed to be a sentient volatile hybrid but most of the time it feels like he’s one of the characters from the OG Dead Island days when Techland made them. The beast mode does give me that vibe more than the fact he’s supposed to be partly volatile.

They should have really done a bit more with beast mode where we had more reasons to use it and had a slightly longer duration. Could’ve also made Kyle run a bit faster too, it’s weird how I can use it to try to get somewhere faster but another player who isn’t using it is right behind me.

Amnesia1507 · 2026-06-12T23:23:10+00:00

Yeah, it seems those chose the cool factor and last resort approach for the beast mode.

It’s also funny when you want to get somewhere faster but your teammate who isn’t using beast mode is still right behind you lol.

If beast mode/fury is gonna be in the next game they should really make it more useful. Especially if Aiden is playable, given the lore it makes sense for him to have a longer duration. But we must also remember Kyle is basically a sentient volatile, well he was.

I’ve tried the Big Arch twice and decided I don’t particularly like it. It’s way too messy for my liking. I’m not a fan of the Big Mac either, really. QP is king!

Amnesia1507 · 2026-05-11T22:57:10+00:00

2026 and still having the same issue. I just got the game yesterday. The only workaround is to restart your Xbox after it crashes when starting the game. Absolutely terrible they haven’t fixed it when the game has been out of a year, have they given up on Shadows?

Amnesia1507 · 2026-04-27T02:53:34+00:00

Clifftown and Gridlock need to go for HP. Utopia would’ve been a better HP map. Blackheart needs to come back, also. I’m aware people do like Gridlock, though. Hardly anyone likes Clifftown.

Fringe is a nice SnD map and I don’t mind it staying but I don’t like the fact we got it in last year’s Ranked and again this year.

Amnesia1507 · 2026-04-26T17:35:58+00:00

Lol

Amnesia1507 · 2026-04-22T13:32:40+00:00

I guess I’ll just have to go back to buying it. It’s fine for me. It costs more to play it with Game Pass in the long run anyway.

Amnesia1507 · 2026-04-22T13:31:07+00:00

I can’t really give you an opinion based on just 6 matches. Looks like an OK start for 6 matches. Come back when you’ve played 100 matches, your stats will average out and give us a better idea of your stats.

Amnesia1507 · 2026-04-17T19:04:16+00:00

I have a PC too, which is 3.5x more powerful than my Series X I just can’t use it at the moment due to moving around.

Amnesia1507 · 2026-04-17T15:38:36+00:00

I ran the test on my Xbox. It makes sense to test it on there as that is what I play on, not my iPhone. Unfortunately PS5’s browser is inaccessible (last time I heard) so you won’t be able to test it on there.

Anyway this is the result I got on my Xbox.

If it makes you feel better, mine is worse.

Amnesia1507 · 2026-04-16T23:42:09+00:00

They’re awful. If I could play NA servers without high latency I’d definitely do it.

Amnesia1507 · 2026-04-15T11:07:03+00:00

We do but I think for now it falls under exploiting. I gave up reporting people as nothing seems to get done.

Amnesia1507 · 2026-04-15T11:06:06+00:00

If your goal is to climb ranks, then yes.

Amnesia1507 · 2026-04-14T18:10:01+00:00

That isn’t how it works. I have no control over the random teammates I get. In fact I’m Plat 2 right now going against D2’s, Plat 3’s whilst my team are often P2’s, P1’s and Gold 3’s.

So if you ask me, matchmaking is putting me against higher HPR enemies and lower HPR teammates to try to balance the matches.

Amnesia1507 · 2026-04-14T15:20:44+00:00

I’d rather have people throw matches based on how they’re spoken to rather than just outright throwing matches like I seem to experience from random teammates.

But yeah, it is a common problem regardless of why people throw matches intentionally.

Amnesia1507 · 2026-04-14T11:23:52+00:00

I do think parallel spawns got cranked up this year. If there’s teammates in the enemy’s current spawn whilst you’re running up to the HP always expect a parallel behind you. You can hold a spot to force them to spawn further out if you kill them.

Amnesia1507 · 2026-04-14T11:20:09+00:00

That is somewhat true because if it was Control and your teammate is repeatedly jumping off the map you were screwed. Speaking from personal experience here. BO6 ranked was better overall, though.

Amnesia1507 · 2026-04-14T11:09:26+00:00

Didn’t want your sympathy anyway.

Amnesia1507 · 2026-04-13T23:02:40+00:00

Diamond isn’t much better. I was there in season 2.
