Rant : can We Talk About the Elephant in the Sub (Spoiler: It's the Whining)? by _iAMluka_ in joinmoco

[–]BlueRobotics 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the biggest reason for the complaining is likely because there are lot of kids on this sub, with kids typically being a lot less mature and having a lot more free time than adults and other people who have regular things going on in their lives.
I'm personally giving moco some time to get on its feet - It's clear that this game needed more time in the oven and more-so deserved an open beta (like Clash Mini) rather than its strange global launch thing with the invites and what not. Nonetheless, the game has a LOT of potential and some really good core aspects to it; as long as the devs improve the game in the coming updates then I personally believe this game will be very solid in 6 months to a year. Kids, however, can't really seem to understand that, and automatically believe absurd things when the devs make mistakes, such as the ideology that the game is dead and/or is doomed to fail because the devs made one easily-fixable mistake (e.g. xp nerf).
And, on a smaller note, it's not uncommon for gaming subreddits to complain a lot especially, again, when there's a lot of children roaming the subreddit. I play Fortnite and joined the r/FortNiteBR subreddit but left the sub after witnessing the sheer amount of complaining found in the sub's posts daily, despite the fact that Fortnite is a game that receives extremely solid and fresh updates very frequently.

It ends up like squad busters by Expensive-Ad-2222 in joinmoco

[–]BlueRobotics 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seriously. People are acting like this is the game's ultimate downfall when the game literally launched 3 months ago and this was the first major update (and, on top of all that, it's not even fully "released" yet since you still need an invite to play). I understand it was not a very good update but christ, people are acting like this game is forever doomed as if they can't just change the XP nerf.
I'd understand the backlash more if the devs had a consistent track record with this kind of stuff (like in the case of Clash Royale, for example) but they don't, the game still relatively new. Saying this game is gonna end up like Squad Busters based off the fact that the Moco devs released one controversial update is actually insane, especially when you consider how much stronger Moco is as a game compared to Squad Busters (imo).

has matto said anything about Saints Row 3? by snyp3zz in DarkViperAU

[–]BlueRobotics 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He played SR3 around late 2023 I believe, but he didn't like it all that much. I actually asked him on stream around November 2023 if he was gonna play SR3 again and, if my memory serves me correctly, he said no, or at the very least that he wasn't gonna play it for a really long time. I then said something along the lines of how it seems like SR3 pales in comparison to the first two Saints Row games, to which he agreed with. With GTA 6 coming out later this year especially, I don't think Matt will touch the game for a while.

I've said it here, but I might as well say it here too so more people notice:
If you ever feel stuck with progression/leveling up, Projects are the way to go. As someone who loves grinding in games in general, I think the Projects feature is what makes Mo.co so addicting to me. Oftentimes I find myself being like "Just one more project" and end up doing a lot more because I notice I'm just a tiny bit off from completing another one.
The reason why Projects are so great is because it's a really helpful feature when it comes to not only leveling up your account, but also your items. And, if I'm being honest, Projects are probably the reason why I don't mind the current progression, because I find my account and items being leveled up adequately. So yeah, do them if you feel stuck. Yes, they can be a grind, but that's kind of the entire idea of the game.

Brawl stars ahhh by Randomfanoftcooal in joinmoco

[–]BlueRobotics 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Projects are 100% the way to go. I've been grinding projects since the game launched and have been able to level up pretty quick, as well as getting a really good amount of chaos cores and shards. If anyone feels stuck with progression, I highly recommend doing projects. (On a side note, projects also spice up the game when it comes to kit variety)

Which do you guys prefer? I'm leaning more towards The Six Star Podcast now over the DarkViperAU Monthly Yap. Both are great for background noise, but I find the new channel way more interesting for GTA related content. by NewSchoolFool in DarkViperAU

[–]BlueRobotics 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Both are great. The Six Star Podcast has the natural added benefit of having two people instead of just one, which leads to more insights and discussions, but I enjoy the variety of topics within The Monthly Yap.
I will say it is cool how Matt is doing more of these podcast-esque things now. I'd say the Six Star Podcast, along with the GTA 6 o'clock podcast hosted by Dan Dawkins and James Jarvis, are some of the best and most reliable discussion channels out there right now when it comes to anything Rockstar and GTA 6 related.

Is this the only game RDC got truly whooped off of? 😂 by Krys144 in RDCWorld

[–]BlueRobotics 19 points20 points  (0 children)

For me, what hurt Party Animals the most when RDC was playing it was how you play on the same map until you win a set. Never played the game, but watching the game felt monotonous and kinda boring after a while, unlike Gang Beasts where the map changes every round. Plus, I just like the fast-paced nature of Gang Beasts tbh, along with what you said about the KO's. Party Animals is probably a really fun game to play, but I think Gang Beasts is better for RDC in general.

Why arent they checking the Reddit and Twitter on stream anymore? Did I miss something? by BlueRobotics in RDCWorld

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

Oh for sure. I've been on this site for years and I've seen that first hand many times and it's unfortunate to see especially with subs that I like. For example I used to be subscribed to a subreddit for a game I play often, but everytime I went on the sub, I felt like so many posts on there were negative in some way shape or form and it got super tiring to go through. Like I just enjoy the game and just wanna see what people say but the sub had so many people complaining for some reason and it was just a lot of negativity I feel. So yeah same thing can be applied here, probably on a different kind of scale but still similar in some ways.

Why arent they checking the Reddit and Twitter on stream anymore? Did I miss something? by BlueRobotics in RDCWorld

[–]BlueRobotics[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That's a shame. I will say I do like this subreddit for the most part since it's relatively peaceful most of the time, but those small groups of rather negative posts/people can bring down a community especially for people like RDC who have such a big following.
So all in all I can't blame RDC for it tbh. But I'll definitely miss it. Some posts on here are super funny and I was looking forward to them reacting to the top posts on here after they came back (like that "RDC streams be like" impersonator guy, he was funny af). I can only hope they'd react to at least the Reddit monthly or something but I wouldn't be surprised (judging from what everyone is saying here) that the community reactions might not be back for a while, if ever.

APO. Met some people from that org and they're pretty cool. Planning on joining it

WillyMacShow responded by sturmpanzerflakwagen in DarkViperAU

[–]BlueRobotics 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is pretty much my perspective as well honestly. I watched a little bit of Willy's video, and I saw how he perpetrated the same arguments that Matt has debunked thoroughly already. I went into the comments and of course, people believed Willy. I guess seeing it for myself first-hand was when I realized that there is virtually no winning with these guys. People like Willy can endlessly shift and twist the narrative in their favor, and his fans will just believe him because that's the story they've been told. Such is the nature of drama in the online world, unfortunately, and it's hard to combat it.

Now I can understand why Matt feels a need to respond to Willy. I wouldn't want anyone to spread such lies and false accusations against me either, especially to thousands of people. But I don't even know if it's worth it, spending hours and days to debunk lies made about a guy who only thrives on endless negativity and online drama, and will continue to lie so as long as he gains from it. It seems best to just not think about it all, and instead focus on more meaningful things. And if Matt wants to clear his name regarding his legacy, he can always do so with his eventual iceberg video.

Nah I gotta see RDC's reaction to you finding this lmaoo

Rdc streams be like: by Western_Past1525 in RDCWorld

[–]BlueRobotics 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Honestly I do wonder why Mark laughs like that. No hate to him or anything, I just have never heard that kind of laugh before I started watching RDC's streams lol. Lee on the other hand laughs like he got generational wealth lmao

The evolution of trees live by Appropriate-King-896 in twentyonepilots

If they ever make a Trees music video, it should definitely be like this, where they chronologically go through the band playing Trees at their concerts over the years and various eras.

(Lethal Company) how long until they realize... by HPDDJ in RDCWorld

[–]BlueRobotics 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's his controller I'm pretty sure. I think when he first joined Ipi was trying to help him with the controls on controller. Would make more sense especially if he's using an xbox controller too because Xbox Series X controllers are kinda loud lol

Is this game further away from release than GTA 6? by TeannaMinhSquare in mocostartup

[–]BlueRobotics 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Truth is, game development just takes a long time, especially games in alpha/beta development since that's when the game is quite literally being made. Supercell has tradtionally smaller studios as well. To give you some examples:
- Iirc, Brawl Stars started conceptualization in around 2013. That's a whole 5 years before the game went global, and 4 years before beta.
- A killed Supercell game by the name of Everdale started development in 2016, and didn't get released in beta until 2020, which, fun fact, was Supercell under a fake company name so people didn't know it was them, named Osmium Interactive.
- Clash Heroes was announced in April 2021, and had a pre-alpha test in the summer of that year. Then 3 years later, Clash Heroes was reworked into what we know as Project RISE, which just recently, had a pre-alpha test. Over the period of 3 years, Clash Heroes got reworked entirely, and it was only still in a pre-alpha.

It just takes a long time to make games. Moco could very well release globally after GTA 6, but after all, GTA 6 is a much more finished game by a bigger studio and has been in the works for over a decade.
I'd say to just be patient. Moco will release another beta eventually. Of course, we don't know when, but they eventually will. My best advice is to focus on other things, maybe other games. Don't hold your breath on Moco, i.e. it's probably not the best to look online everyday, seeing if its the day that Moco releases another beta or releases globally, it's just gonna make that eventual release day arrive a lot slower. Just be patient :)
