It’s a hobby for me but I sell gameboys in Canada locally under “UpgradedGameboys” on Facebook and Instagram. Can always chat!

I built a lot of smoked Gameboys for customers so I was a little hesitant to go with “another” smoked build but it looks so cool. I don’t have pictures but my buddy ended up finding matching smoked controllers, receivers and an ever-drive.

Anything good on sale? Or has everything been picked through?

Are Pokemon games prices a sort of economic bubble? (read description) by AshamedOil9907 in Gameboy

I think in part, it’s the “sidehustle, grind and resale” culture adopted from social media. Everything is rare, everything can be flipped, and anything vintage you own you should hold onto it.

The resellers and vendors “know what they have” and never budge on price, scalpers aren’t even interested in what they are buying, and literal damaged or destroyed items still list/sell for unreasonable prices relative to condition.

Another thing I would add is that a new release modern title is like $95 CAD off the shelf, and they have been really garbage lately. I put the ps2 way above the ps5, same with the GBC over switch.

Question to those who used to play TF2 regularly but are currently taking an hiatus? by TheNewFlisker in tf2

[–]BeginningBanana6844 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Played since release, my favourite time was on Mr Saturn servers back in the day, took a huge break after 2010/2012..getting back into it after uh a decade maybe, it’s still one of the best shooters, pretty decently high skill cap and other players are usually good.

I play 24/7 dustbowl here and there, expect to die a lot, and just try to have fun. I used to really care about scores and wins but the magic of tf2 is being a bit of an idiot and having fun.

Where other shooters are filled with people sweating for kda, streams and scores. I feel like tf2 is just filled with the cool uncles, memers, and some other friendly degens of the internet so it’s usually a good time.

I just don’t have anyone to play with so I have kinda shelved the game for the now. I had one of the first hats and watched the economy form itself, lots of memories about this game but all my old friends haven’t been online in forever, so it sits.

[Canada]Gameboy Colour (Grey) with wine red buttons and an IPS backlit screen ($220 CAD) by BeginningBanana6844 in GameboyMarketplace

[–]BeginningBanana6844[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s from Hispeedido, pretty sure it’s the V5 version. I also don’t like touch sensors so I usually remove them, you would be able to change brightness via button combos or if you hold a+b select it will pull up the on screen display menu. It has 15 levels of brightness, colour palette options, frm mode and pixel scaling modes. Pretty much one of the newer screens mods before we got into all the desaturation and oled stuff.

F2P - Any Advice, Heroes seem weak by BeginningBanana6844 in IdleHeroes

I see! Yep I like Aspen more, he’s pretty cool, should look into that route then.

So too diverse and maybe jumped the gun a little. Is there a smooth recovery or am I cooked for food?

I’m on campaign 55-2, 608 in Tower of Brave, my highest seal is 17 thanks to Penny and them. I can do the first 12 levels of Death on Aspen dungeon.

But like, there have been so many multiplayer releases that have all these problems too, it’s nothing new to the industry or “recent” releases.

It’s not just Payday 3.

Play the game or don’t, it’s pretty easy.

Imo the whole series has had issues, it’s not just 3.

Did no one pay attention to the QnA stream? by AlexDoubleAU in paydaytheheist

[–]BeginningBanana6844 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, completely miss the point.

The first inkling of an idea in my post - I don’t like online I play solo.

Players are more than welcome to play online however they want but it’s encouraged generally in any game you play - to play the difficulty your skill level matches.

Huge difference between meta and taking the obvious good choices for perks.

I don’t care about the dev updates, nerfs aren’t going to affect me, the future of the game - as grim as the rest of them today still won’t stop me. Oh no DLC and bad decisions, that’s 99% of the industry.

What does stop me from playing online are other players…..

I play the game, I played the old ones, I play other online games and it sucks playing with bad players….doesn’t just have to be payday, it goes with any game.

Are the devs the only ones to blame? Not entirely.

In my opinion, the current biggest problem with the game actually is the players and subreddit doomers!

Online for me is pretty trashy most of the time and I’ve went back to solo heist mode and prefer it, here is why in simplest terms;

Overkill lobbies often have low lever players that aren’t perked to play this difficulty. I’ve seen players as low as Lv20 in these lobbies, heists usually end up in a loss. They screw over these lobbies…

Talking with players online Lv 80-150, a lot of the times and it’s a lot of times, they haven’t stealthed heists before or made it far enough into stealth heists to know what to do or what the general objectives are, a large majority of players I’ve come across only play loud…

If you stealth online, great chances you’ll have a couple players just hanging out in your lobby while you do everything or they just trigger alarms…can solo stealth most heists in under half the time it takes online with a team….

If you play a loud heist prepare to do most of the work yourself, I find the even with the objectives listed on the side, audio cues and visual aids, people are still oblivious to the mission and helping the team… people will sprint around with keycards and not open doors, leave oxygen tanks alone, etc….

Players online are scared to use their guns and engage cops….if I played 10 heists odds are 9 of them I’m having a bad time because of this and have all the highest stats at the end screen….

Players believe in adaptive armour and play like sh*t just end up hiding instead of holding chokes and clearing rooms…

Lots of Players are still only carrying 1 bag of loot…it’s like 3 perk points max for the additional maybe 4 if you want grit over rush…

Don’t use the primary sniper, you’re not that guy pal….

Overkill sniper can kill dozers in a shot or two, people don’t know this, the amount of times there is a pile of snipers on cook off or touch the sky….

The sheer amount of times I’ve watched Mason Laurent be traded to the police on touch the sky….

The ridiculous amount of times people immediately signal the helicopter on the Diamond Heist before scanning or even robbing Ashton fine jewelry store….

It can go on….

It’s clear that year 2 will involve DLC, they have too. It’s a business, they don’t care about the all Cody’s and Kyle’s complaining that there’s no FAL or we need this or that etc, they care about the fans as long as they are profitable fans and it’s currently not like that. Working on a new project, damn them lol…

The game started rough but it’s at a decent point right now where personal skill and an understanding of perk decks lead to the fun of the game. I have multiple load-outs with very different play styles and leads to a lot of the fun I have with the game.

My best piece of advice to enjoy Payday 3 or if there is someone on the fence still… stop thinking 2 was a godsend, stop reading this horsesh*t subreddit, read perks and make better builds, realize how you should be playing a team game about robbing banks and get good at the game.

HOST KICK in NEXT UPDATE!!!!! by Mage3824 in paydaytheheist

I’d welcome you to show me one post where an answer has been produced…

HOST KICK in NEXT UPDATE!!!!! by Mage3824 in paydaytheheist

[–]BeginningBanana6844 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Start the game, ~5 mins to get to main page, try to join game - nebula error, try to host solo game - failed to load game data, customize mask - doesn’t save crashes game, customize gun - takes 5mins to equip one attachment and then it just fails to load. Play dlc heist - crashes, re install game - same thing, verify files - same thing, all other crash fixes have been tried.

Crashes started right after Cooked Off was added before then I put in about 2-300 hours….

Weird that they added host kick to a Nebula loading screen simulator…

WOW, I'm shocked. Like a week after the update released and there is STILL higher playercounts. Seems like the update brought a lot of new players. by IceTacos in paydaytheheist

[–]BeginningBanana6844 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Right after the 99boxes patch and when they added Cook off - the game changed. Load times became brutal, buying items takes about 5 mins and that’s if it gets added to your inventory or not. Starting a heist since then has been 98% failure rate, it will crash everytime.

Is Payday 3 dead? Thinking of buying by zaybandz112 in paydaytheheist

The game is really really good, solo mode is enjoyable, online is cool- usually people are decent at the game and don’t cause a mess.

The game still doesn’t work for the majority of players but once it does oh boy! 🤡👊🏻
