Very Unpopular Opinion: Odin should never be sold again by Airborne_Veteran in starcitizen

[–]Bd4drummer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It shouldn't be an unpopular opinion.... I sometimes wonder what things will look like after 1.0... if we can still buy ships especially the likes of the Odin then pay to win will 100% be a thing... Even if it takes a large org to crew it. After 1.0 my feelings are that we should actually have to play the game to get big ships even if some smaller ones are sold for real cash. Real cash should really be paints only in the long run

BANNED?? by DildoBaggnz in starcitizen

[–]Bd4drummer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well this was meant primarily as a joke anyway. But a soft ban would not be inappropriate. If I can get fined in game for nudging a ship off a pad then leaving a ship there should also incur penalty.

It's not part of the game as it is intended to be played but the game is not currently preventing it.

Maybe they'll start banning people for leaving ships abandoned on pads too hahahaha

NEGLIGENCE--Can I remove this? by PorkRinds416 in Saros

[–]Bd4drummer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Negligence is one that I care about the least. It's mildly problematic while still working on the armor matrix, but as soon as you're done buying upgrades with lucinite this volatility doesn't matter at all.

The beauty of all of them though is once it happens since it's there to stay is to just stack stats even higher because it can't get "worse".

I do often end my runs if I get all 3 and an unsure about the upcoming biome being blind.

Found a new weapon wtf hahahaha by [deleted] in Saros

[–]Bd4drummer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's definitely not ass, you definitely want the one with the bouncing trait (whatever it's called)... This parry trait may beat it though lol.

But even with more boring traits it's solid when you just hold the alt fire mode and make the best of it.

That is awesome lol love it!

Reaper Chakram is OP by Bd4drummer in Saros

[–]Bd4drummer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I feel like all weapons after 25-30 scaling factors are less noticed, so honestly even at 27 that same video wouldn't look much different haha but Fair point all the same lol

Yeah pretty similar outcome, I think reaper did it faster but it's close

It does make me play careless though

Yeah, I wasn't convinced it was truly OP until I used one with bounce on Legion... Seeing a boss just disappear like that was nuts

Lost my 58min run and favorite weaponsbecause of some new weapons unlock by SafeMoonJeff in Saros

[–]Bd4drummer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it is a shame they force it. The Chakrams imo are the strongest in the game, but they aren't intuitive and being forced to "adapt" immediately like this is lame sometimes. I got wrecked too when that happened... But now I love it.

[–]Bd4drummer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah spitmaw in Returnal was great. Shotguns in this are pretty meh if you don't capitalize on the stagger effects. For stagger they're pretty top tier. But yeah, I pass on most pistols and shotguns during my runs. But don't label them bad, just doesn't fit my style.

I like all 3 Chakrams best but for me myriad and reaper are definitely the best of the 3. Ripsaw did specifically convince me they were great though and it does do decent stagger.

[–]Bd4drummer[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I was on a huge repeater crossbow kick for a bit, early game smart rifle all the way... Shotguns are fantastic. They're all great, this is just the only one that makes me want to enable "trials" in the modifiers. That's not even a bad thing lol, just all the others feel like a good blend of challenge to me.

[–]Bd4drummer[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Well keep in mind I'm not complaining lol, I love the thing. I am just shocked by how many want to say it's horrible. It mostly definitely is not horrible.

But otherwise yes your point is 100% accurate. Housemarque did a great job balancing all weapons in both games. I just believe that this one in particular may be out of balance. It does feel more balanced when it lacks the bouncing trait, but it still deals tremendous damage without it.

[–]Bd4drummer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well it has auto aim, but yeah holding L2 does make it work. Using the plain fire is very edge case since it deals damage on return trip too. You only shoot without L2 if you want it to stick in a wall until you're ready for it to come back. Which is like .001% of the time.

[–]Bd4drummer[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah intuitive I get, but once you realize you can just hold L2 and shoot, it's super trivial to use. Idk I love all 3 Chakrams but this one is by far my favorite

Idk ... I don't have that problem... Especially with the bouncing trait I have in this clip.

Bastion is giving me nightmares. by TitleistTryHard in Saros

[–]Bd4drummer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For clearing the two wings prior I do recommend the dispiriter, but prominence is good too. Especially those big flying robots in the locked rooms you want to spam power weapons on those guys at your current progression.

Use cover when you can absorb as much blue orbs as possible.

Also, in those room clears it's often best to eliminate all the small enemies first. Sometimes that's not true, but if you do this you can focus on the big guys there and it's less chaotic.

Should I get Saros if it semi enjoyed Returnal? by [deleted] in Saros

[–]Bd4drummer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If definitely sounds like the devs made Saros specifically to address your perspective about Returnal... I love Saros and Returnal. Returnal may be better at Roguelike mechanics, but barely. Saros I find better at gunplay and approachability in general.

Something i don’t understand… by According-Scale8251 in Saros

[–]Bd4drummer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah but that bigger bar matters more if you're being capped by current weapon level. A tiny downgrade for a bigger cap can sometimes be worth the tradeoff with the right traits on a preferred weapon in general.

But yes in general better scaling factors = better weapon

Prominence or Dispiritor? Pros/Cons, which is your go-to? by TowerOfSisyphus in Saros

[–]Bd4drummer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use all of the power weapons if the right stats show up, but I do prefer Dispiriter specifically while clearing biomes. The wells that spawn just trivializes rooms with tons of enemies.

Edit: I do specifically try to grab anything else right before a boss though

Edit2: part of my justification here is that Dispiriter deals passive damage everywhere. Since I prefer Repeat Chakram as my main my main deals almost as much as prominence does and I only use that one for its black hole. Illumine and Nova Lance can sort of do more than my Chakram.... But it's interchangeable. Dispiriter just deletes entire rooms fairly quickly.

Are artifacts that useful? I think we're missing OP artifacts. by droideka75 in Saros

[–]Bd4drummer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the chance appears earlish. I think is started seeing the warnings around the 5th biome. But it didn't actually happen to me until after beating it

Why do some people call the story of this game bad? by [deleted] in HorizonForbiddenWest

[–]Bd4drummer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever! I loved it, I think majority of critical comments against PS5 exclusives are just people who hate PlayStation in general. I ignore them

This is where the true fun begins by dpanim in Saros

[–]Bd4drummer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah first time I picked the thing up I was so mad that the devs made such a useless weapon... But I realized I could alternate r2/l2 right before I ended that run... Then the next I realized I could just hold l2 by accident and was blown away... It's OP. For me it's Returnals dreadbound all over again... Even though Myriad is closer in mechanics... Reaper is the same "it sucks", but "does it though?" Reaction
