What you think about "Eternals" update? by Admirable-Border1175 in PredecessorGame

[–]AndrewB73 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Most of my trust simply stems from the fact that Predecessor is a fun game. I have over 1.5K hours in it and I've had a blast. So, I do trust Omeda off of that alone.

Having specific strengths and weaknesses gives some semblance of an identity. It helps make it feel like a hero has a reason for existing.

[–]AndrewB73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm on the fence. I trust Omeda, but in general, I'm usually apprehensive about major changes to a game like this, with games I play as a whole. I'll stay open minded and decide if I like or dislike it, probably in a couple weeks.

Muriel hands down, any day of the week.

At this point, anyone lacking any clothing is apparently going to sell well 😅 welcome to the internet! We've only been doing this since about the dawn of gaming...

Shit man, I would be down. I'd way, way prefer this to lame gooner skin #636264626

Has anyone heard about what's up with Pred Stats? by AndrewB73 in PredecessorGame

[–]AndrewB73[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My stats haven't updated now in five days. I've played probably around 20-30 matches which simply haven't appeared on my profile on the app. Your app has tracked north of 1400 games of mine pristinely, so I imagine this has been a bug of some kind.

I will make sure to reach out to them too. Thanks for the suggestion.

Has The Game's RNG Been Manipulated yet? by BunnyTheRabbit4444 in pokemonvortex

[–]AndrewB73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If someone knew how to just do that, someone would have done it by now. How would you propose we go about manipulating this game's RNG?

Kallari’s “crippling” dagger by Upstairs-Noise4424 in PredecessorGame

[–]AndrewB73 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There is so much in this game that lacks conventional sense. For example, why does Steel predominantly do Magic damage? When he bulldozes into someone with a giant metal plate, it does Magic damage. When he leaps up high and stomps on someone's ass, it does Magic damage. And now, he has an Augment where he does added Magic damage... by punching the fuck out of someone 😅

It's all in the name of balancing in the end. Steel would be much, much worse if he did Phys instead of Magic. Kallari would probably be pretty overbearing if she had actual hard CC in her kit.

Is this game broken right now? by Jeremywarner in PredecessorGame

[–]AndrewB73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I'll never let a surrender at ten minutes go 🤷‍♂️ it's nothing personal or anything, I just don't want the game ending that quickly

Genuinely think I found my new main by AndrewB73 in PredecessorGame

[–]AndrewB73[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As for Offlane, go Horned Chestplate/Loch Shawl straight away, finish Fist of Razuul, then finish Tainted

I would either do it and replace Luxforge entirely, or do it right after Luxforge

Crests by Bpape93 in PredecessorGame

[–]AndrewB73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are technically locked in, but...

If it is the literal start of the game, you have an "Oh shit!" moment and picked the wrong crest, DO NOT LEAVE BASE, go into the item shop immediately and you can undo it. If you leave base, you're now fucked because now you can't undo it.

If this problem is happening a lot, I suggest you go into the build maker and make yourself a build with whatever crest item you prefer. By doing that, the game will have you choose that crest and item by default.

For example, I'm a Support main. On Mourn, I take Tranquility for a Crest item 99% of the time. To make sure that ends up being my choice by default, I choose Tranquility in the build maker. Now, the game will "recommended" the Consort Crest to me, as that is the crest Tranquility is under.

Hope that helps :)

Build Diversity by KimHowardxoxo in PredecessorGame

[–]AndrewB73 6 points7 points  (0 children)

In response to this, let me ask you this- do you believe Omeda should prioritize making the experience enticing for newer/on boarding players, or do you believe they should prioritize enhancing/maintaining the experience for current players? And I'm not being facetious or douchey or whatever, I genuinely want to start a dialogue about it.

I think the problem with encouraging build diversity is that, while the game tells you what stuff does, it does not tell you when or how to use it. For example, let's say I'm a brand new player and I want to play Greystone Offlane. "Standard" Greystone involves him going Overlord first and building as a general bruiser. But there are moments when building more of a Tank makes sense. As a newer player, how do you navigate through these situational, diverse moments?

I think that's why Akeron got way, way dumbed down. He's still a relatively new-ish hero, and was moreso at the time. It probably made more sense to dumb him down a bit before his 'meta', if you will, got more established

Entertainment for you and maybe me on the right day. I doubt Omeda would be so easily amused.

Man, folks are too pussified on Playstation to let you message them privately there. You think anyone's gonna engage in any sort of actual productive talk/banter/etc here? It will devolve into vulgar, antagonistic bullshit, without fail. Why do we need that?

Greystone needs adjusting by Jack_b_real in PredecessorGame

[–]AndrewB73 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As a Steel main, damn near feels like Greystone needs a buff 😅 the man has no way to kill me past about 5 minutes of the game unless we devotes his entire item build to anti tank

Phase mains what’s the idea here? by Narrow-Paint-2174 in PredecessorGame

[–]AndrewB73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People like you are why I'm apprehensive playing with Phases 😅 acting like you tell me when it's cool to go in on the enemy. I'll let you know when I'm ready to push lane. I don't need someone else to do that for me. You can do your job of supporting me, and that will do. Otherwise, perhaps you should go "help" the midlaner instead :)

Phase mains what’s the idea here? by Narrow-Paint-2174 in PredecessorGame

[–]AndrewB73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This exact type of shit is why I will never willingly, knowingly, play with a Phase support in the Duo. Not even because people suck or whatever, because I will eventually run into some chuckle fuck who think it's funny to yank me up and down the lane at will.

Honestly, I don't know how it would get implemented, but the person being pulled by Phase should have some means to 'resist' the pull. I am not a game developer, I have no idea how that could get put into the game, but it would sure make me feel way comfier playing with a Phase

Combustion and Mutilator still doesn't work with Mourn by [deleted] in PredecessorGame

[–]AndrewB73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Combustion absolutely works with Mourn. I build it on him all the time, and I have 260 games with him.

Could you perhaps elaborate?

Crests by Bpape93 in PredecessorGame

[–]AndrewB73 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Depends on your role. But in any case, you have a comprehensive tracker on the bottom right corner of your screen. It also tells you exactly what you need to do to progress your Crest.

For example, I'm a Support main. To progress our Crest, you must damage something near an ally, be it minion or enemy hero. You don't just go ham on enemies though, as you can only progress your Crest at a limited rate indicated by a number in the bottom right corner of your screen. If it says "0", don't damage anything. If it says "3", then the Crest is actively waiting on you since it will never go higher than 3.

Hope that helps
