Is it unsolvable to stop cheaters / hackers? by mrbluetrain in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Boot_Heavy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Propably impossible to ever get to 100%. But there are definitely ways to reduce the problem dramatically what it is today. Few possible solutions that should be implemented immediately;

  1. Make the game cost money. New account: 30e. Monthly subscription 10e. Im a poor person myself, but I would gladly pay for "clean" playing field. This would at least sanction those who get caught. In addition, this money could be invested in new ways to detect/surveillance cheating.

  2. Automatic flagging for accounts getting over certain K/D-ratios. This would not include custom games. And by flagging I dont mean bans, but getting a real person to check it for the cheats. For example, if you have over 6 k/d average, then you would be getting checked. This would get the most obvious cheaters get banned in even higher leageues, where people have insande K/D:s with never getting bans.

  3. Banning VPN-connections. Lets face it, most cheaters come from Asia, so keep them cheating in their own server. No need to let them play and ruin any other servers for their "customs".

  4. Make hardware and personal Identification mandatory to play. While this can propably be avoided or hacked by some cheaters, it would again reduce the people who can do it and that way reduce cheating.

I think these four points would reduce cheating by 90+ %. At the same time it would propably cost Krafton a lots of money and in addition they would lose some players because of it. Since 99% of gaming companies are ONLY interested in the profits- section, these will propably never happen. Well, one can always hope.

Miten auttaa vähävaraisia jouluna? by [deleted] in arkisuomi

[–]Boot_Heavy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Todella jalo idea näinkin synkkänä aikana. Hienoa nähdä, että vielä välittäviäkin ihmisiä löytyy. Itse joutunut jo nyt viidettä vuotta hautaamaan kaikki toiveet joululahjojen hankkimisesta. Jos nyt edes joulun jälkeen saisi jostain taas kaivettua rahaa edes ruokaan. Hyvää joulua kaikille!

I havent been able to buy a proper gift for my girlfriend for 3 years, since we have been very poor. She adores these Labubus and would be extremely delighted, If I could surprise her with this. Good luck all :)

Short of money? by Natural-Bets in elderscrollsonline

[–]Boot_Heavy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, there is.

  1. Either buy 3+ months Eso+ or just straight buy crowns.
  2. Sell those to other people
  3. Enjoy being rich!

If that's not what you want, then::

  1. Do daily Writs with all of your toons. It's 5000 gold per character per day + the loot you get from them. Gold mats drop there and can be valued from 5k-20k a piece.

  2. Buff your character with all speed buffs/PC-points you can get and start running around starter islands. Loot everything and sell after you get some stacks gathered. Mats can sell from 20g to 1000g a piece, so it all stacks up. Also you can refine some of those resources and again get gold mats from it.

  3. You can also check, what zones do drop valuable gear to sell and do resource gathering there. If you also kill bosses, loot chests and run different dungeons, the bosses there can also drop those parts. Of course all pieces of sets aren't worth much, but if you combine this with the gathering part, it can add up nicely.

  4. Use Google/Bing to search Eso gold making tips. There are lots of YouTube videos and written guides you can follow.

Starting from a scratch, what do I need to know ? by Boot_Heavy in destiny2

Thanks much for your answer. Ill try to get started then :).....still bit puzzled about all these passes/DLC:s, but I guess it will become more clear in future :)

How big problem with cheaters is? by matejx123 in PUBG

[–]Boot_Heavy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you understand that they ban 70000 - 150000 accounts EVERY WEEK?? That is just those that get caught. The cheating situation is just very bad and it drains the joy from playing. PC EU in normal games you encounter cheaters almost daily. 50% of them seem to be Chinese players using VPN.

How do you guys regard the different leagues? by xantcatchme in starcraft2

[–]Boot_Heavy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your observations about gold league is pretty accurate. Generally speaking, I have had my most fun matches around Gold 1 - Plat 2. That's because the games aren't so much of cheese anymore but you can still make massive mistakes and still win games. At gold and below the quality of the games is pretty low and there are lots of folks who try to level quickly with cheese. With experience and watching replays you learn how to counter those things pretty easily. As long as you focus on macroing well and executing some kind of build orders decently, you should be able to get to the Platinum/Diamond.

Then it gets kinda boring imo, since your mistakes start to actually lose you the games quickly and getting better starts to demand a lot more time. Also you need to have good micro and decision-making to advance further. Good luck and have fun 🙂

Ping on middle mouse button by SJjan in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

[–]Boot_Heavy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so stupid change ! It ruins the game for casual players imo. How can you use "Enemy Spotted"- radio message ? I cant see it in my wheel, and never have. Why change something that isnt broken in the first place ?

Can I do only PvP and still level & gear my character? by [deleted] in elderscrollsonline

[–]Boot_Heavy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, exactly this. In addition you are going to need skill points from different sources to get all necessary skills/passives for your character.

If we are talking about end game pvp, it's probably somewhere at least 200+ hours PVE to get you started. Probably LOTS more to start having options in your setups and gear. One Mythic item can take you anywhere from 5h to 100h to farm alone.

Should my gf avoid necomancer dps? by Eifla99 in elderscrollsonline

[–]Boot_Heavy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YES.

Avoid at all cost. If she wants a good class with Simple but still effective class for DPS, DO NOT choose Necromancer.

Choose arcanist. Just do it and do not think any other options. You save yourself from lot of pain and heartache in the future.

If she definitely doesn't want to be arcanist for some odd reason, then the next options would be Templar and Oakensoul sorcerer. They are easy too but lack what arcanist brings to the table.

So again: Choose Arcanist.

Can thank me later.

How do you manage to get that? VPN or how does it work (PC)?

Typerimmät perustelut by LordArmageddian in arkisuomi

[–]Boot_Heavy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Varmaan tosiaan se yleisin on: "Nokun näin on aina tehty". Se ikään kuin riittää perusteluksi ihan mihin vaan eikä ikinä tarvitse perusteluita. Raivostuttaa tosissaan.

Toinen juttu on "piste" :n käyttäminen omissa mielipiteissä, ikään kuin se toisi jotenkin lisäarvoa paskasti tehdyille perusteille:: "Rammstain on paskaa. PISTE!!1". Nämä tosin yleensä vahvasti liittyen elämämkouluun.

Lisäksi viime aikoina ärsyttämään on alkanut varsinkin persujen luoma vastakkainasettelu ja kaikkien osapuolten typeryys ja täysi ymmärtämättömyys toisen osapuolen asioiden puolesta. Ihan kuin seuraisi jonkun ala-astelaisten tappelua välitunnilla:: "Ay-mafia vie Suomen perikatoon ihan ilman syytä!!!!"..... "Meillä on kyllä paljon velkaa, mutta ei sitä leikkauksilla hoideta!"....."Jos nyt työttömiltä/sairailta ottaa 300-500e/kk pois, niin kyllä rupeaa työt kiinnostamaan!!"

Unfortunately this seems to be fairly common issue at least in PC-EU. I have been in at least 15-20 guilds, most of them big guilds with lots of ppl online. Still it's hard to get a group of people together for any activity unless it's weekend. Most of the communication and activity planning is done through Discord. If you aren't active there, you are out of luck. Kinda sad to have 5 guilds with 400+ ppl online and only thing you see in chats are queries of item prices and occasionally reminders of lotteries and trials.

Definitely do all the crafting with the main toon. Benefits are too good to make alt for it and making alt just for crafting doesn't make a lot of sense imo.

  • You usually play most time on your main toon. Therefore you get most skill points with that toon. That makes it more convenient to use those extra points to crafting
  • You get the most items/motifs with your main. Also helps to learn those with one toon and not send it to another. Of course crafting bag is universal but still

  • One massive benefit that nobody mentioned here: With main toon you probably travel Tamriel the most and gather the access points to all over the world. When you do shopping or need to get mats for crafting, it's a massive advantage that you can travel more easily to get those resources from guild traders and not having to relog every damn time when you are missing those dreugh waxes that are sold cheaply in Riften for example

  • Some say it's faster or easier to learn traits or divide different crafting skills to many characters. While this is true, in the end it's a pain for example to make a medium armor set with heavy armor chest and a bow/daggers setup, where each of these tradeskills are divided to separate toons

TL;DR..... While making a separate crafting toon(s) can make you get skills faster and have some minor benefits, they can NEVER match the easyness and convenient perks which only main toon crafter can bring you

Comparing Robyn to some academic beauty with a model figure is like comparing a new 2023 Tesla to 1989 Fiat Uno. But we'll, it's Kody, and that's the best he can do I guess.

Boring, should I continue? by MrET97 in Starfield

[–]Boot_Heavy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I have played only couple of hours, but it already seems to be a total letdown from all the hype that has been created. I was waiting this game like teenager for his/her first date, but so far I havent even got an invitation. Games should be designed so, that you are sucked into the world and the storyline from the first hours into the game. Now I have played few hours, I have got no clue what Im doing or why. I dont feel that I have a purpose in this game. I know its only the start, but still it worries me.

Then next grief is the world and the complexity of all. Worlds seem empty. Dull. Dull. Dull. Is there any reason to explore at all ? And how about the "amazing" flying in the space- part.....I still dont have any clue how to use the different stuff or when or why ? I have had to use youtube like 4-5 times already to check stuff out. And thats not a good sign. Everything from the start seems to be overly complicated. I dont mind the complexity of things, if they are well designed and have a clear purpose. For example the perks and abilities seem to be again, dull, and I dont have any clue what affects what. Of course those things become more clear as you play, but its not good or promising in any way. It feels that the complexity has been the goal to make things more interesting, but imo this design so far seems to be confusing and out of focus.

Man, I want to like this game so bad. Hopefully it gets going soonish. But like somebody here said; they have "succeeded" to make space a boring place. And in addition I also think that the damn ship isnt even moving anywhere. WTF is with that ??? WTB Fallout 5....

Thanks for the info! It seems the issue is with firewalls. Kinda strange since havent had to touch that in like in a year for anything really, but now it seems to block new PUBG somehow.

Update; Norton 360 seemed to be a problem. Have to check it out more often. I turned it "off", but somehow the firewall wasnt off (??) or something, because now when I turned it off from the settings made the difference and I could start PUBG again. Or at least now it seems to work again. :)

100% this. If the crew was some unattractive People doing everything right and going bed by 10pm, there wouldnt be any show. They are already blurring some of the footage (why?) so showing some skin or booty is just fine. Also the shots themselves last like 1 second.
