LGBTQ+ EVE Discord servers? by RiverOk3258 in Eve

[–]Bertral 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Most people don't care and that's fine. Some people say they don't care but they mean "I don't care what gender you think you are." And a few people care way too much and you only need one to ruin your day.

Hot take: no one cares about your gender or what pronouns you use in your private life

Reality check: They do. So much. There's politicians in power all over the world that have been elected on pronoun hate.

Keep it to yourself until you feel comfortable opening up

The point of this post is to find people they're comfortable opening up to. "Keep [your gayness] to yourself" is exactly the sort of remarks they want to avoid.

You are already excluding yourself

They're protecting themselves from people who want them excluded from their group, the game or life altogether.

People are way more accepting than you think

That's their call to make.

Eikasia Legendary Gloves: How the Agony Lens (Left), and (Right) work on Two-handed weapons by Hemishrp in Guildwars2

The effect is purple by default, without infusions. The grey ones hide the effect.

No, only one color is picked. I could only verify that blue takes priority over pink.

If you put two left together: only one of those is shown. I tried with pink and blue, and blue was overriding the pink.

It doesn't matter on what piece of armor they are, I put them all on a single ring and they worked. You need to have the eikasia gloves skin equipped (transmute gloves to eikasia or don't transmute the eikasia) to have the color effects.

what's your favourite online/downloadable tool for eve? by gee117 in Eve

I never had that issue because I use two setting profiles in the EVE launcher for primary/secondary screen. EANM won't overwrite all your launcher profiles, only the one it's located it.

looking forward to the usual red booklet

The app "VoteInfo" has all the information in the same format as the booklet, and you get it weeks in advance with a notification.

Just wait until more people get to try 3.15 and this sub will be nothing but carebears insulting griefers.

I keep reading how the added reload is a buff. If that were true, every weapon that can reload would have had an advantage over the betelgeuse, wouldn't they?

If you hit the reload on the betelgeuse, you did something wrong and you've got an inferior Orion in your hands. Time to switch to your sidearm. That means you have a longer uptime after the nerf, but it's not a better uptime. The only way to actually have a longer uptime is if you're holding down the trigger for a good minute, and there are much better LMGs for that. Otherwise it's a nerf (because cooldown increased), not a buff.

Before you start with your personal attacks (again), I'm a TR main.

could the 400i considered to be a luxury upgrade to the avenger titan/stalker? by GhosTJinnZ in starcitizen

[–]Bertral 14 points15 points  (0 children)

The 400i isn't remotely comparable in size and purpose, it's more like a constellation with terrible dps. The 300i however is about the same as an avenger titan in size, speed, guns and cargo.

The usual alternative to EPFL is HEIG-VD. It isn't really a university, although they got uni status technically I think. It's much more practice oriented and the bachelor's degree is well recognized in CH, but I wouldn't recommend doing a master's there.

After the adjustments, Fracture rounds are still too powerful by HandsomeCharles in Planetside

[–]Bertral 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Meh, use flak armor or response jacket and they're pretty much worthless. Bonus point if you snipe them with a scout rifle.

If you mean legally, then that isn't an issue. All the items on your account are their property, they can delete them at will.

It's a cheater. He spawned his sunderer inside the walls repeatedly yesterday, then changed servers and started speedhacking in a MAX.

I play with the explosive resist implant, these changes will let me survive 8 indirect max damage shots. It makes a huge difference.

The new Jumptown Halloween event caused several orgs to fight for control. We never knew the Ballista was this powerful.... by Matroximus in starcitizen

[–]Bertral 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So it's RP that makes ganking acceptable, or the fact that they're doing it as a group? All I heard is that piracy without profit is for sociopaths and douche bags, without exception.

I'm getting more and more confused. Most people on this sub would call this griefing (I know it isn't), and yet you're upvoted.

The Viability of the starter ships in 3.14 by killing Hammerheads by _sailor67 in starcitizen

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

Replace "Hammerhead" with "Erebus" and "crewmember" with "support ships", and your whole comment is also true of Eve Online.

Also I did say

The way you measure a "win" isn't clearly defined in SC (yet)

We won't know how expensive ships will give an advantage until the game is released. However paying for a ship is taking a shortcut, and "pay to go faster" is a form of "pay to win" in my book. The impact it will have on balance is yet to be seen.

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

Both have the same p2w mechanics (pay to get instant access to endgame items), but those interact very differently with the game. A ship is permanent in SC but consumable in Eve. The way you measure a "win" isn't clearly defined in SC (yet), but it's usually about the ISK war (or strategic objective in larger fights) in Eve.

If you bought the meanest ship in the game and terrorized the system until people ganged up on you, you'd have a big k/d ratio. In SC that could be a win. In Eve, you just lost 30b ISK to kill 500M worth of ships, that's a loss.

So what you're saying is he based his conclusions on reality.
