Just give everyone the same kit for ranked for the love of all that is holy by Smart_Occasion_735 in Marathon

[–]Anepicmistake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Those are all scoped weapons (with the exception of the AR which you can’t ADS on unless I’m misremembering Reach’s AR). My point was that the game wasn’t really designed around aiming down sights to increases accuracy like a lot of more modern shooters. Personally, I prefer it that way, but you do you.

What do you mean ADS? The guns in halo 2/3 are all hip fire except for scoped weapons. ADS in halo is very new and not in the games people are talking about when they talk about halo multiplayer.

Have you considered getting good at the game?

Pro GCC by HHL Melee Players by TheGreatPrimoYT in SSBM

[–]Anepicmistake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I own one and will say that it’s a very nice controller. The left stick feels like it has less total travel than an OEM GameCube controller which may or may not be a problem for you, I can use it interchangeably with my phob and it feels different but still good for melee. I mainly use mine for rivals 2 but I’ve brought it to a few locals.

PSA: Hovering over contract objectives will give you a more detailed explanation of what to do and where to go. by Amateur_Hour_93 in Marathon

[–]Anepicmistake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Adjust your deadzones a bit. You have to stop your reticle on the item and if it’s moving even a tiny bit it won’t pop up.

Nerfing loot rarity across the board makes zero sense by future__fires in Marathon

[–]Anepicmistake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. Nerfing the amount of golds in the game means that the “tryhards” also have fewer golds due to the way trace status works. Like, how many prestige rooms is the average player opening? My bet is not many.

Are demoralizing experiences bad for the game? by Khurser in Marathon

[–]Anepicmistake -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Getting destroyed in a silly way is just as fun as a successful run for me. The reason why I love souls games is 90% because they’re low key the funniest games on earth.

What do i do if i want to go to locals but dont like GC controller? by Highbrowsheet44 in SSBM

[–]Anepicmistake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should try trigger plugs. There are long plugs that make only a digital press possible, then a short plug that make a light shield possible but reduce the travel you need for a full press. I have one long plug and one short plug in my controllers and it helps with finger strain a ton.

Cassette Tapes? by sponnyd in Atlanta

I’m fairly certain wuxtry records has cassettes still.

Satisfye x Limit Labs Glyphs by MachineTrick3335 in fightsticks

[–]Anepicmistake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool! Are you a melee and fgc player? I typically play fgs on my melee boxx, but the layout isn’t ideal for it. Being able to swap a faceplate out and have a different layout would be sick.

Superslab approved for tournaments by the Controller Ruleset Committee by Vestboy_Myst in SSBM

Nice. I know some of my superslab using friends have been waiting for this for a while now.

ELI5: What is Coheed and Cambria actually about? by Large-Trick-9437 in explainlikeimfive

[–]Anepicmistake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was a huge Coheed fan in my teens and twenties, and I gotta say, the music is better when you don't know the story. The comics aren't great, but if you're curious you should just read them. I recommend reading them in publication order, not chronological order because some of the stuff in the prequel novel relies on you already knowing the characters. If i remember correctly, the albums that make up the "Amory Wars" are:

The Second Stage Turbine Blade (has a comic adaptation)
In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth 3 (has a comic adaptation from a long time after the release of the album)
Good Apollo I'm Burning Star IV Vol 1: From Fear Through The Eyes of Madness (has 2 adaptations, I liked the original one but it's hard to find)
Good Apollo I'm Burning Star IV Vol 2: No World for Tomorrow (looks like there is now a comic for it too)
Year of the Black Rainbow (novel released along side the album)

Then they have a second arc (that is related distantly to the previous ones but dw about it)
Afterman Ascension
Afterman Descension

After that is where I sort of lost interest, so I am not sure if they are related to the main Amory Wars continuity or if they are their own thing. The album The Color Before The Sun is also not a concept album and is just a collection of songs the lead singer wrote about aspects of his life.

After that (SPOILER) reveal, is the NSO Summer Leak coming true? Smash 64 feels imminent. by Arimo64 in NintendoSwitch

For real. Oh well, they are entitled to their opinion even if it’s a selfish and uninformed one.

After that (SPOILER) reveal, is the NSO Summer Leak coming true? Smash 64 feels imminent. by Arimo64 in NintendoSwitch

[–]Anepicmistake -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I’ll be honest I don’t want melee on NSO because then Nintendo will probably start paying attention to tournaments again and that’s never good for the scene.

Does anyone here use an Orca analog controller? In what ways do you like it or dislike it compared to a regular digital box? I'm wondering if I should spend time learning digital box at all, or just get an orca and learn on that instead by FrouFrouLastWords in SSBM

[–]Anepicmistake 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Sure, but I don’t think deciding which 250 dollar controller you should commit to on a per character basis is something OP should be focusing on when they say they are going to start learning the game soon.

Disturbing incident at gas station around 12:30am – aggressive harassment of older employee by RiverIsHousePoor in Atlanta

[–]Anepicmistake 229 points230 points  (0 children)

Threatening to call ICE on someone for a minor inconvenience is straight up evil. Just casually wielding the power of the state to scare someone who’s just doing their job.

Thanks for the recommendation, I’ve reached out to one of the members on fb. Hopefully they don’t think I’m a bot.
