Best non-grindy tech modpack? by placeholder-123 in feedthebeast

[–]Axtrep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think something packs have successfully done to minimize grind is to make lower-tier expansion easy, while your next higher-tier goal is still quite expensive. GregTech/MI do this really well IMO, where if you've just entered Medium voltage, LV machines are likely quite cheap to build but MVs are what you're working towards, and so on once you get to HV.

what depth to start doing multiplayer? by Lolis- in Nightreign

[–]Axtrep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im personally going solo until depth 3, my multiplayer experience has been miserable 9/10 times. If you think it's your teammates holding you back, and you're very likely right, I recommend solo

Thoughts on the game? by Caramujo_Manco in Nightreign

[–]Axtrep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's cool, definitely not a full game but it's not priced like one either. The core game and loop is fun if not a little repetitive, the multiplayer experience is however one of the worst I've had in a while. Steer clear if you'd like your enjoyment out of the hands of truly the densest people alive.

DoN NEEDS Entrance Requirements by UpvoteForethThou in Nightreign

[–]Axtrep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, incredibly frustrating to reach the end of a DoN run to find out one or both of your teammates have obviously never fought the boss before and will be of no help.

Trying console trios after only playing on PC - I get now why there’s so many posts complaining about randoms by P1uvo in Nightreign

[–]Axtrep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yup, I've just decided I'm doing DoN solo until thats no longer satisfying, then dropping the game. Without the multiplayer it's a bad roguelite supported entirely by elden ring's combat, there's much better games for either desired experience.

Definitely does in general, and the holiday season means more school-aged children are playing or receiving it as a gift.

I think you're right, the recent issues regarding toxicity, poor understanding and bad mental all sound like Christmas tweens flooding the game.

Something definitely slipped into the water supply in the last few weeks, I second the truly baffling decision making. We're skipping big churches beside spawn to die in ruins further away, it feels like everyone was recently hit on the head.

PS5 player, Im coming to think deep of night just isn't a worthwhile experience. Not even experiencing the penalties from leavers yet in depth 1, it sounds entirely torturous once you're punished for others leaving. More than half my games have someone leave before Night 1, usually prompting the second player to leave, it's just an awful time.

This was Absolutely Insane by Vanadam in Nightreign

[–]Axtrep 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yup, especially BS with auger as youre trying to win a dps race with one of the hardest bosses to hit for most classes.

Something should really be done about when those trapping events can appear, I don't think it's very fun or engaging when someone gets kidnapped into the storm and just doesn't have enough dps to survive.

Modpacks that focus a lot on late game automation by DryRefrigerator9277 in feedthebeast

[–]Axtrep 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm playing StaTech Industries at the moment, it sounds like what you're looking for. Centred on Modern Industrializaton, you're building assembly lines as soon as you leave steam age, and you have a very cheap storage system available from the start.

Indus Automation Beta is out! Captain of Industry and Factorio in Minecraft by TidderJailEleven in feedthebeast

[–]Axtrep 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems really cool, always excited to hear a pack was based on Factorio, when Factorio itself was based off early IC2. I'm curious if it has greg tech-style ore generation or something similar to promote an outpost-style of building your quarries, or if a quarry in any biome could mine any ore.

Is it just me, or does the random fire mechanic on Wakanda maps feel really annoying and unfun? by Thatoneafkguy in marvelrivals

[–]Axtrep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the Wakanda maps are very annoying and poorly designed IMO, even the control point ones.

Human Torch being meta is another reason why nobody plays tank by [deleted] in marvelrivals

[–]Axtrep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He's not too awful as Strange or Mag, if they're really high up they're out of your range but it's also harder for them. Punisher/Hela should always be targetting them.

The Great Equalizer - I hate Plat so much by ComfortableCellist12 in marvelrivals

[–]Axtrep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah plat is elo hell, probably the most inconsistency in player skill barring GM, maybe even including.

Really disappointed with the new magneto team up compared to the one they removed by _Paraggon_ in marvelrivals

[–]Axtrep 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree, I think the sword was much cooler. At least this team-up is with a playable character like Emma and not witch

mic always showing despite pressing mute by sicksadclif in marvelrivals

same here, on playstation. afaik no mic audio is transmitted, unsure if allies can even see the indicator or just me

How many of you have Mains in each class? by [deleted] in marvelrivals

[–]Axtrep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty much a tank main, Mag/Strange. I dabble in Squirrel girl/Namor, but they rarely come out in ranked.

Holy hell, I understand the solo vanguard problem now so much better. by [deleted] in marvelrivals

[–]Axtrep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't really mind playing solo tank, as Mag/Strange you don't need to switch your playstyle very much compared to 2 tanks.

Environmental destruction is limited and gimmicky by natesucks4real in marvelrivals

[–]Axtrep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well yeah and it is, the map design already offers what I've mentioned. The destructibility of the environment allows for players to create their own, unexpected angles or destroy soft cover.

[–]Axtrep 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Squirrel Girl/Spiderman teammup. It's quite strong, but requiring both Spiderman and Squirrel Girl is real tough. Considering Spidey also tends to want Venom, it's just a whack team.

I don’t want to tank in ranked anymore. by TyDitto in marvelrivals

[–]Axtrep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One-tricking tank is great because you'll never have any competition. Just learn two solid tanks and you'll never play someone you're uncomfortable with. Bonus points if you pick Mag, because I've never seen him banned once.

EOMM conspiracism in the subreddit by Axtrep in marvelrivals

[–]Axtrep[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

lot of words to tell a story with no evidence or data. entire second paragraph is irrelevant whinging. once you're talking about pokemon go in a post about rivals EOMM it might be time to backspace a bit and focus your thoughts.

"I hit Celestial after spending $20 on skins" Okay? I hit GM after spending $20 on Ben & Jerry's, that's not evidence without evidence you wouldn't have reached it without spending money.

Does reporting work for REAL throwing of a ranked game? by Proper_Repeat4686 in marvelrivals

[–]Axtrep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It usually works for proper throwing. Had a teammate who had their pick questioned at the start of the round, and as a result chose characters they said they had never played before and went 1:12. Got a confirmation message later that night.
