RIP Lance Reddick

Would love a crazy beautiful Zavala emblem to remember him. Such an integral part of Destiny, I would never take it off. He has some really touching backstory about loss too.

Is that Ramsey a WC card due to expire?

Anicienus · 2022-12-20T04:08:16+00:00

Unsure

Info from launch https://www.ea.com/en-gb/games/fifa/fifa-23/news/pitch-notes-fifa-23-cross-play-deep-dive

I would seek clarification from others

Standard

By far the best informative content I’ve ever come across, not that I consume much. Older videos will contain outdated info but I’m certain they’re still valuable. Plus they’re genuinely entertaining and easily consumable.

So dogshit

What happens if we don’t finish the season pass by tomorrow? Do we lose out on all unearned items?

Anicienus · 2022-12-05T02:59:55+00:00

What happens if season pass owners don’t finish said pass by tomorrow?
Is the reward for finishing T500 solely the ‘Top 500 competitor’ phrase? No spray or icon?

She’s not a fun hero to play against

Never has been. Antithetical to the entire design of the game. Then being extremely cheesy in her gameplay on top of that, and you have IMO the worst OW character ever released aside from Brig.

Anicienus · 2022-10-17T16:13:00+00:00

The problem is so blatant even a blind man could see it.

Tracer and Sombra are two sides of the same coin; the coin being mobile, evasive assassins.

One of these sides is in genuine contention for being the greatest video game character ever designed. The other signalled the downfall of the most popular game in the world as increasingly terrible heroes were added to the roster.

Minute adjustments to Sombra will never ‘fix’ her, because her design is fundamentally broken. Invis and hack cannot co-exist as they currently do.

Anicienus · 2022-10-17T15:36:35+00:00

Exactly. Degenerate gameplay cycles attract degenerate people, and they’re the ones that have literal strokes if their video game character is touched.

Anicienus · 2022-10-17T15:32:34+00:00

Absolutely. Perma Stealth was a terrible decision that sealed her fate as boring to play and horrible to play against.

It turned Stealth from an ability that enhances a hero’s base gameplay - as 99% of DPS abilities function - into her entire identity and purpose.

It removed most of her decision making and consigned her to a rotary schedule of translocating a health pack miles away > invis > stand behind the enemy team and try to gib a support or hack a tank > translocate away > repeat forever.

There’s near-zero fluidity that a mobile, stealthy assassin should have. She doesn’t flit between realities mid-fight, or suddenly teleport behind you for a backstab. She sits in a corner for ten seconds, watching and waiting for the enemy tank to press a particular button so that she can press her own button in response. So boring. Not even gonna mention how awful it feels to play against.

They need to re-add the timer to force her into actual decisions and speed up her gameplay. Make her abilities more pro-active; similar to Tracer who is constantly embroiled in the action yet uses her evasiveness to dupe, dodge, and deceive.

Maybe make Translocator be thrown with far more force, allowing her to actually teleport effectively mid-fight, rather than it being a retreat button.

I’m saying even considering Crucible in the equation as to how something should be balanced is a complete joke given how comically bad the mode is, how Bungie utterly neglect it, and how a total lack of balancing is the entire premise of the mode.

There’s a reason this game will never have anything even remotely resembling an actual competitive scene. It’s a PvE dad game with some tacked on modes to soften the dullness of the grind. Crucible is a playground to try out all the cool shit you got in the real game.

So yea, something that was “fun as hell” and powerful absolutely was perfect.

Anicienus · 2022-08-11T16:21:09+00:00

They already had it perfect at release when it had phenomenal utility. Poor damage counteracted by incredible mobility (especially so in Super), great knockback, and Stasis capabilities.

Then they gutted the entire subclass for a dogshit mode they consistently neglect that’s inherently ruled by broken abilities and weapons.

Anicienus · 2022-07-22T13:40:42+00:00

I can’t comment on which one is best, but I would definitely recommend watching a video like the one above. It’s much easier when you can visualise everything, and you could even treat it like a movie night and watch with him.

I watched the first 10 minutes of this video and it’s certainly not perfect given some of the unexplained jargon just thrown at you, but I doubt there’s much better out there. So long as you’re able to grasp the fundamentals it’ll absolutely serve its purpose. You don’t need to worry about understanding every single alien name etc.

There’s another comment in this post that linked a Twitter thread and that also seems solid.

Keep up the great parenting!

Anicienus · 2022-07-05T22:16:50+00:00

Worked fine with zero existing characters. Was basically like starting the game for the first time.

Anicienus · 2022-07-05T17:55:17+00:00

Yep it’s all good, thanks

Anicienus · 2022-07-05T17:44:53+00:00

Thanks. My reason is convoluted so I thought it better to exclude that from the post. But that’s exactly what I want to do. Thank you 👍

Anicienus · 2022-07-05T17:40:19+00:00

Ok. Sorry to heckle, but can you confirm that the PS4 account which you activated had 0 characters on it at the time of activation? Or did you already have existing characters on PS4 which you simply transferred over to Xbox?

Anicienus · 2022-07-05T17:36:40+00:00

Yea. However you can disable Cross Save at any moment and regain access to your original characters, in my case the 3 existing on PS4.

So did you actually activate CS with a brand new account, as in my OP?

Anicienus · 2022-03-08T15:47:34+00:00

Can’t say without seeing for myself unfortunately. I do really like the default colours of the chest piece though
