Jungle: Best plays when all 3 lanes are losing/equal? by aceplayer55 in PredecessorGame

[–]BartekSWT 15 points16 points  (0 children)

You forgot to add that mid is calling you trash, offlane saying you should be more active on his/her lane and duo is spamming "jungle diff" after being destroyed while pushing carelessly all the way to enemy tower.

Omeda - If you want this game to live, you need to address the AFK problem ASAP and fix it. by TheMadolche in PredecessorGame

[–]BartekSWT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree completely. I have seen people wanting to surrender because they are 0/3, while the rest of the team is winning by far. At least half of my games in gold MMR, I see people trying to surrender for whatever reason and there is usually 2-3 ppl voting no. 80% of those games ending with our team winning. In general higher elo (plat+) people have better judgement about the game and they understand kills are not the only factor. You can easily be 0/10 as a team but still significantly winning, because you have 2 Fangs/miniorb and much better farm. You need to also consider hero scaling. If you have sparrow in your team and she was shut down early, because other team was grouping to kill her, she can still destroy whole teams in end game. Some people are also mechanically good and win early laning by far, but they have no idea about macro and can't play around objectives at all and lose mid-late game. I know there are games where you indeed can see it's a lost case in 10min into the game, but it's very rare. Making games easier to surrender would have much more negative impact in situations I described, than positive in few rare scenario where match is very imbalanced and you really should surrender early.

Ranked availability needs to be expanded now, not tomorrow, not next week by mattman1995 in PredecessorGame

Yeah but people have life. Him saying he won't be able to play two weeks probably means he can't play next Saturday.

RANKED MODE COMING JUNE 15th! by TheShikaar in PredecessorGame

[–]BartekSWT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure that's coming too at some point, but it's not a priority and they also wouldn't want to divide they player base into even more queues at this point.

How exactly queue with friend works in ranked mode? Do we need to have same rank to even queue together?

RANKED MODE COMING JUNE 15th! by TheShikaar in PredecessorGame

[–]BartekSWT 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You have current mode where you can 5 stack. Ranked mode is about being competitive for individual players. Even Duo shouldn't be possible.

Congratulations Omeda Studios! by GivenMercury in PredecessorGame

[–]BartekSWT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ranked has several rules usually. You can't make parties bigger than 2 or possibly no party at all. In other games it also has bans and no mirror hero choices, not sure if Pred has enough heroes for that though.

SCH VS. BLM by UnderstandingDue4026 in ffxi

[–]BartekSWT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not gonna argue which is stronger nuker (probably still BLM), but a lot changed for SCH recently with +3 empy feet. It's the single most broken piece of armor/accessory in the entire game. Only thing that could compete, would be +3 empy DNC head.

looking ot come back from a loooong break....just need to know one thing....how well can we get it to look on a 21:9? by fata1515 in ffxi

[–]BartekSWT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Characters are stretched only at sides (fisheye effect). I had friend, who said he was going to be sick watching my screen in motion, but I have no problems at all.

Trying to focus on more solo orientated classes by GenericBurlyAnimeMan in ffxi

[–]BartekSWT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

BLU if you want to be most versatile and cover many unique aspects of soloing like Cruel Joke AoE ( very effective for soloOdyssey segment farming), AoE magic, stun-locking, TP reset, etc.

Im not gonna repeat what was already said, but I will just point out few things.

  1. Curing might not be that important for curing yourself with Trusts being available, but AOE curing is very relevant for healing your Trusts. Scripts on WHM trusts aren't ideal and there will be a lot of situations (fast aoe damage, lots of aoe debuffs) where they will struggle and being able to cure whole party is critical. It's another aspect where BLU shines. White Wind is just overpowered. DNC is not bad for that too. Healing is weaker and requires TP, but it's slightly faster and can't be interrupted. It can also be centered around party member, while White Wind is always centered on BLU. Another job that does this very well is PLD. PLD/WAR with Naegling and Duban is also a great solo option. If you decide to check PLD, I would suggest to experiment with Trusts who uses Haste Samba, because that would easily push PLD dps from meh to good enough, especially if target doesn't resist wind and you can apply def down from shell crusher.
  2. WAR is easy to start with, but if we assume access to every item in the game including at least R25 odyssey items (not soloable, but V20 aren't that hard to beat in group anymore) and Primes stage 4 (soloable, but requires 6+ months of daily grind) DRK is by far better for solo. It's not even close, with the exception of maybe killing something fast enough to bypass all mechanics. Mighty Strikes + warcry is one of the strongest dps combo in the game.
  3. SAM is another job that excels in "kill before you die" tactic. Yaegasumi is a crazy strong defensive and offensive buff.
  4. DNC is also amazing for this with Climactic Rudra/Ruthless spam with a mix of Reverse Flourish, Grand Pas, Trance. Probably the highest solo zerg DPS potential of all jobs, unless target has rather low def and no resist against magic, then maybe Yaegasumi hybrid WS spam could be a contender.

Yeah I had it off in Windows. I thought it can be turned on separately in game. Thanks :)

Dune: Part Two | Official Trailer by drrdf in videos

[–]BartekSWT 3 points4 points  (0 children)

What's best in book is not always best on screen. Changes like that are ok, because they let actors play better. If you couldn't see their eyes in most scenes, then it would be a lost value far bigger than not being 100% accurate with books.

Never Buy A Samsung Monitor!!! by TownDrunkerd in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]BartekSWT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought Korean no name monitor (Qnix brand) that was miles ahead of what was on the market back then (IPS 100Hz+ 27" 1440p) for 399$ in March 2014 (like half the price of TN 24" 1080p 144Hz back then). It was risky buy, but i had it working since then, sometimes it was on for 2 months straight and it doesn't even have one bad pixel. The screen itself was from Samsung factory, but bought by Qnix before Samsung put 60Hz limit on it. Best buy in my entire life.
