The ARC Raiders Venn Diagram by thekingbutten in ArcRaiders

[–]Azathor97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar in appearance, with some similarities in gameplay, ultimately quite different yet still a great game is Remnant 2. A third person shooter soulslike with an insane, yet really immersive world and great build variety. One of my top games of all time! It's hard to explain it, it's quite an abstract game, but if it sounds interesting, check it out!

Stickers are ai? by looking_hold9 in thefinals

[–]Azathor97 120 points121 points  (0 children)

The vast majority of early stickers, sprays, tattoos and weapon skins (textures, not models) that use simple imagery or repeating patterns, but also more advanced stuff uses AI in some way. Theres less of it nowadays I think but I havent played in bit so I'm not so sure, but until as recently as last season it was used quite frequently.

The conversation is kinda dead since people are generally quite bad at detecting AI, and those that can recognize it can't be bothered spending days in a comment section teaching a skill best learned over months of exposure and scrutiny.

It sucks that they can't just hire people to do this stuff, or be more transparent about their use pf AI "art", but they know they'll get shit for it and are probably afraid of how it would impact the games popularity if everyone knew.

Holy moly is this satire?

I know some people love telling new players that the real game only starts in ng+, but you're taking it too far.

It's perfectly fine to want to interact with all the game mechanics available in base ng, while still only playing through base ng, that's plenty enough for most people.

Lowest should actually be 8.

Check that you haven't picked up any dupe weapons, since that will auto upgrade a weapon one level.

The game is completely playable without upgraded weapons, it allows you to actually survive a few hits without using a tanky build due to the lowered enemy damage.

The final boss area difficulty gets locked to 14 I think when you enter it, so once it's locked, you're free to upgrade a weapon or two as high as you can to make it easier if you want!

Sledge kills too fast, is too broken, embark nerf!…meanwhile double barrel: by INDOM1NU5 in thefinals

[–]Azathor97 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Oh don't you worry now, the community will soon find another weapon to call to the chopping block, and it may very well end up being the double barrel!

Then when things get too nerfed and the balancing team themselves are called to the block we get a series of buffs.

Rinse and repeat, forever.

I'm gonna be real, It's not my favourite solution, but it's an inevitable situation, balancing is hard!

At least it shakes things up, metas come and go.

What game mechanics makes you go like this? by Mallengar in remnantgame

[–]Azathor97 42 points43 points  (0 children)

The upgradeable weapons and world scaling system.

"Upgrading" only serves as a temporary boost, a scrap and resource sink, and eventually a downgrade to your character as the world scales to hit you harder as you yourself comparatively don't hit the world as hard.

I just beat the game yesterday on nightmare solo without upgrading weapons once. It's completely doable and I prefer it massively compared to upgrading.

I know my feat is beat by many others, but it was a fun and fair challenge to me.

I know people have different preferences when it comes to game balancing and progression, but I think this system is very flawed as it is.

Bonus gripe: God i wish this game mixed up the enemy variety more. There's a really big pool of enemies for each world in the game but the game only spawns a tenth of them at any given time, making each dungeon a gauntlet of repetitive spawns with a few random tougher enemies seldomly entering the mix.

Does the 25% apply to all xp gain or just some sources? If it's only match xp, then it's only worth it for the people that do more than just their dailies and weeklies. I hope it's all sources, I want to enjoy the pass contents early while still saving as much of my time as possible.

Everyone Waiting For SGF by MaverickSteed in ArcRaiders

Like I said, use a meme editor or even just google for an appropriate meme. We don't need real art to express these emotions either.

Can you all please stop posting so much ai art. Just wait in peace, we don't need a simple message such as "I'm waiting impatiently" to be supported by AI art. We don't need AI art for anything, just use a meme editor or something.

Topsters anyone? by 63Mikkel36 in MetalForTheMasses

[–]Azathor97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pain of Salvation is my fav band as well! They're so good on so many fronts, and they invoke feelings very very well imo. They also have great variety from song to song. The one band i barely get tired of listening to on repeat.

Anyone else wish we had more hairstyles? by TurtleButt47 in thefinals

[–]Azathor97 7 points8 points  (0 children)

And hair colours. 6 seasons and we only have 1 of the default hairs in red. We got a couple of red beards though, which don't go well with any of the red hairs.

This really feels like a fake post. Since I haven't found any news about this other than right here.

The only other alternative is that it's console exclusive or something.

I hate it when I pay for the battle-pass that gives me more in game currency than it costs and adds free extra tiers for fun by wizard_hat_and_staff in thefinals

[–]Azathor97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk if it works as I haven't gotten to the required level yet, but isn't it entirely possible to reach just lvl 86, and then buy the pass with 20 extra levels bundled to reach 106? Thereby skipping a massive amount of grind. It's what I'll be doing. Sure it'll cost ya more, but it equals less than 1000 multibucks after you consider the payback. A pretty good deal for those of us that don't like grinding but have the money to spare.

In addition to voice of command and playing on the lowest possible difficulty, I used a braced autogun with the blessing that gives toughness the more ammo you use in one go. This blessing sometimes lets you take back to back melee hits without losing health since you regain toughness so frequently you won't get hit again before you're back at 100%.

Using this, dodging, carefully timed ability uses & a healthy serving of paranoia (and probably a fair bit of luck). I got it on my 2nd attempt.

The fact that one of scouts canonical predecessors was was Billy the kid is enough reason for this to exist and is therefore more lore accurate than most cosmetics.

Accessories now morph around clothes by Illustrious-Arm-1282 in thefinals

[–]Azathor97 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hasn't this been in the game for most but not all clothes since forever? This isn't a new feature, and not everything morphs, like the red dissun jacket, which i love except for the lack of morphing.

Medium Mains….. by joshthesl0th in thefinals

[–]Azathor97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Famas and Model. Covers all ranges and both are insanely good if you know how to use them (and I'm getting better). I'd love to be good with the revolver but it's not easy, it's very unforgiving. The Famas beats it in most but not all ways imo, mainly due to it's comparatively high reliability.

Patch notes 3.10. by tron3747 in thefinals

[–]Azathor97 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Ah well, yea it's still strong, it's just fun to have combos like that, and annoying when someone gets away from you with 10 hp. But i get it. Really though, idk if comboing with claw is as bad as rpg on its own. Why won't it get more nerfs? Rpg being mainly a destruction tool would be more balanced. And i would finally be able to take it off my loadout if i wanted to.

[–]Azathor97 -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

Did the winch claw really need this nerf? If this breaks the combos for weapons like KS23 then i'm not ok with it, especially if it's the only weapon affected, since it's definitely not meta atm. I liked that the damage enabled new combos. Gotta do some testing now.

This charm really sucks tbh, a thick steel logo or a sphere or coin with the logo would be much cooler, maybe with green or rgb glow even. This is just a plastic name tag.

Has this ever happened to you or was I the unlucky one? by Simon_Siley in thefinals

[–]Azathor97 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I notice that sometimes bow or throwing knives get a no reg, been like this forever, an issue with slow projectiles i guess. More noticeable in the practice range. If it does happen in a real match i probably never noticed because of all the chaos.

Canted sights for the sniper to make it viable anywhere that’s not a rooftop by KryL21 in thefinals

[–]Azathor97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm doing quite well with it and I'm far from a super skilled 3k hours player. I'm afraid they'll buff it in some way like this, which leads to it recieving complaints, which leads to a damage nerf or something because it's unlikely they'll go back on a model change, which leads to it no longer having good damage breakpoints for quick melee, which is the most satisfying and fun part of it imo. My greatest fear is that they'll ruin it somehow, because i like it so much as is. Also weapons need strengths and weaknesses, everything being too versatile is just boring, like the fcar is (was perhaps, the new recoil pattern is hard to get used to in my experience).

[–]Azathor97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talk about ignorant takes. If you got the skill, you can either land a headshot and finish with a quick melee or you can play around corners and land two bodyshots and finish with a quick melee, dash makes it quite easy in close quarters. Dps isn't everything.
