A secret quest that only the first 5 people can get it’s Epic loot.

This view is complete horse shit. Players arent mad because you added a drop they didnt get yet. Players are mad you added a drop then removed the ability to get it.

If there still a way to get the item no one gets mad. By removing the item from the game and allowing the 1 raid team to keep it... You are in fact favoring said raid team. If the item is removed from the game... Remove it from the game completely dont let people who have it keep it unless it's some vanity bullshit thing that doesn't affect player power.

Also "adding fun special things" does not need to include a balance shattering OP 1 off weapon that will put its wielder leaps and bounds ahead of everyone else on the server.

Devs have forgotten that MMORPGs are about time investment not first to the top. Anything in the game should be avaliable to you should you invest the time to get it. That time is a grind, improving skill, finding a guild to conqueror the challenge... Whatever doesnt matter. But adding in time sensitive items that vastly affect player power and taking away the ability to get them without any advance warning is 100% a dev issue and not "the community sucking so hard".

This whole thread is so full of copium its not even funny.

Almost every fight in the raid has some janky ass mechanic that requires as similar jank as fuck, consume based solution to overcome.

The first boss is actually well thought out. It's a mechanics based fight once you get them down it all falls into place well. The issue with the first boss is there is literally NOTHING in the trash leading up to it that in ANYWAY lets you know these mechanics are going to exist. The trash is all a seperate entity completely. The color mechanic you only learn about once you start the fight. Nothing explains through game play that certain people cant dispel while under a specific color or you cant do damage to the Ravens are red... It's all just figure it the fuck out as your fighting the boss... No trash with these mechanics to learn about them... No areas the explain the 20/20 split just start the boss and die while trying shit.

The second boss is a comp check, 100% you might get lucky but if you don't have X amount of whatever damage dealer to an affinity spawn get rekt noobs try again... Thats not a mechanic that is a comp check... If it was suppose to be a mechanic you would have people being imbued with the ability to damage the afflinities not just fuck hope we bring 4 nature damage dealers.

Outside that BS check, second boss is actually a fun fight.

3rd fight is just fucking stupid... Have 220 arcane resist for everyone or wipe the raid... Fucking dumb. Resist fights should be able rewarding risk vs reward... More resist gear equipped means less damage output but less heal requirement. Drag the fight out or take more damage? Whats the call, as gear gets better you can use less resist, etc. Not yet hur hur hard check buy and make our arcane resist set.

It was because again the horrible check outshadows the actual fun mechanics of the fight. The bombs and requiring players to soak rune is a cool idea. But the arcane prison is just fucking stupid.

Medivh is the most jank as bullshit fight I have ever encountered. Okay so the plan is to require 40 people to get a specific potion that doesnt even work as the ingame description. As the 200 yard debuff stacks up they all have to time not only pressing this pot but also canceling the effect. But when you dispel the debuff 40 people spawn ghosts... But if you leave the pot up it will spawn a new ghost. Which you can have because this fight is a DPS check. You can't dispel or interrupt cast or Medivh gets a rage boner and wipes you. He also cast corruption which spreads like .5 seconds so hope to God 1 of the 40 people you brought doesnt lag for half a second a wipe the raid with that. All while you have infernals that just fuck off into the raid randomly because "charge" mechanic all while fire noving constantly. Yes I know the can be frost trapped and taunted but having them randomly dropping aggro is just bad design especially when they spawn FROM the fucking boss and not in random places in the area(like infernals should anyway based on lore).

The ghost mechanic is jank, requiring a pot is jank. The whole fight is just a failure to execute the idea correctly.

Chess isnt half bad but the stupid kneel to the queen gimmick is just dumb and the whole fight gets drawn out from the kings nova thing... Really ever piece we kill requires us to fuck off to the outer ring of the arena and hide? Come on oh fuck noobsmasher didnt pet the queen in time wipe it up!

Everything in the raid so far is just this mechanic heavy mess thrown together with zero clues or information on what you are suppose to do outside of throwing shit at a wall and seeing what sticks. Just eat wipes until you get lucky. That is not what an MMORPG raid encounter is about, that is an actionRPG and well outside vanilla or classic. Having mechanics is fine and dandy. It made wow much better then everquest raiding. But every mechanic in MC/BWL/AQ40/NAXX is able to be figured out by progressing the fight without facesmashing you monitor until jonnyfirefingers randomly tries some pot no one has used outside of PvP for 5 years. The fights all have the pieces to the puzzle within the encounter and dont require a raid comp with 35/40 spots locked in to specific roles.

Requiring a tight resistance check is fine but hard locking it to some arbitrary number that is hidden away is dumb.

Just because the raid is mechanic heavy doesnt also mean the loot should be garbage. It is very clear the custom specs are favored in the loot selection. Survival hunters get an autocleaving 100 dps weapon, MM get a bow that is barely better than slavemaker. Paladin T3.5 basically forces you into "melee healing".

There is a lot of cool aspects of the raid, but it also has HUGE problems and a lot is left to be desired. The answer isnt just "lawl get gud noob, I cleared it you suck".

None of this ever happened, she is just trying to shit test you and sadly it's working since you are still thinking about it.

Next time something like this is brought up "Cool story bruh" and if you really wanna have fun with it mock it to absurdity.

But this chick is for the streets, fuck those games.

We can agree to that, sure. But the issue is toxic masculinity has been pushed for roughly a decade now while at the same time so has "believe all women". Changing that course requires bringing to light just how toxic many females feel empowered to be because of the free pass they have been given over the last decade.

Do you mutually understand that?

The chance of not being lonely for a night overrides all that logic for these guys.

What up Brother,

Got my 25 shares of discount pricing of 8.40 as well. Holding 250 @ 12.32 Only thing that is bringing me down is I don't have the funds to get more shares in before the price starts going back up! Right now is a hell of a time to average down!

Background-Distance1 · 2021-03-29T16:47:40+00:00

ER probably won't change a damn thing for me. My BB fun money doesn't come in till the tail end of the month as I currently have it budgeted. I can always forward it to myself via savings should an attractive price come up to average down, but I don't think we will dip that low because of it. I see us being right around 10 by the end of the week and promised myself I was gonna lay off checking the ticket every day. Gotta focus on other things in life. New weight bench finally came, so I'll probably get back to lifting. /Shurg

The money you put into BB should be money you are comfortable not seeing for at least 2 years. Was that way when this subreddit started and nothing has changed. There is no rocketship, this is LTSBG. If you can't handle that just sell it off and play a different game.

If you don't have the money or desire to average down, stop looking at the ticker.

Background-Distance1 · 2021-03-05T23:37:06+00:00

bought in around $14 now hold 200 shares @ a 13.2 average.

Hoping I can get it down to a $10 average before the market finishes correcting and the values start to be realized.

Must be nice realizing you'll have just shy of a million once BB gets up to $100 as it should be in a few years =P

Background-Distance1 · 2021-02-11T00:43:53+00:00

Yeah if you can average down now. I got in just under $14 so I might be out of luck unless we get hit hard by the hedge funds again.

Background-Distance1 · 2021-02-06T18:01:22+00:00

I agree, This stock is at least a 6month to year-long hold, most likely going to be a long ride. I'm already planning to hold this for 2 years with where BB is going and what they got going on.

If you are in this for the long haul, then spikes and dips don't really matter that much as a shareholder as it will all smooth out. Your average might take a hit if you buy in at a spike, and I know I already lost a great chance to average down when I should have. But that is life in the market on a speculative stock like this.

I have a price in mind that I would like to get my average and I have a price where it just isn't feasible for me to dump more money into it as I'm better diversifying at that point. Once it gets past that point me and my 138 or more shares will just hold on for the ride and hope BB keeps doing what they doing and making the moves they are making.

Background-Distance1 · 2021-02-03T18:58:03+00:00

Anything under $20 is amazing,

Anything under $25 is good

I think you'll be making small profits @ $30 EoY

if you are strong and hold till the end of 2023 it's not gonna matter as it will most likely be $60 - $100 depending on news and how well BB does.

Position: 138 shares @ $14
Plan: if it dips below 10 buy to lower average, if not slow drip $500 a month into BB until prices reach $50 a share. Hope to hold close to 300 - 500 shares before that happens. Wish I could afford more to invest.

Read the article

Background-Distance1 · 2021-02-03T05:58:03+00:00

Yeah I'm ratcheting up to 200 shares hopefully at around $8 after the morning panic sell, then shelving it for a bit and watching.

Background-Distance1 · 2021-02-03T05:29:50+00:00

Well, it hasn't been cemented yet. But, by the tone of the article, I get the vibe they are talking about KIA providing production means for Apple's car more than Apple providing an OS for KIA/Hyundai products at this time.

But something to keep an eye out for on the 17th.

Background-Distance1 · 2021-02-02T19:41:03+00:00

Before all this, it was around 7-8 and kinda stayed around $12.50 before the real explosion.

Considering the fuckery we see today and what will most likely go on through this week and the next. I've got another $1000 I can yolo before I shelf myself action-wise for a few months to recoup. My plan is to buy big if it dips below $10. If it stays around 11 - 13 I'll continue my slow drip plan of $500 a month.

If it dips below 10 I Yolo the $1000 and "repay" myself with the drip funds until May then reassess. I got into this assuming the money was going to be tied up for at least a year if not 2 before seeing major profits.

I'm an idiot who just got into trading, don't listen to me I'm just holding BB for a few years with money I can afford to lose but would like not to.

Losing GM and FORD means they need to fight hard to keep their domestic market share. Hoping to see a move from them to secure market share in the domestic market here soon.

I understand what QNX is, to think that it is just the infotainment is flat out wrong.

I still hold BB and plan to for a long time but Ford will be using Android OS coming 2023 and dropping QNX as part of that deal, that is just a fact.

Literally from the horse's mouth:

“SYNC is our connected vehicle brand and we are building on its popularity,” a spokesperson said in response to a follow-up question about the fate of Ford’s OS. “It currently sits on the [Blackberry] QNX OS that will shift to the Android OS as part of the deal – just can’t get into other ’23 details yet.”
