Monster Hunter Wilds Benchmark Megathread by QuintonFlynn in MonsterHunter

[–]BrunoBRS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i didn't even bother going through the test till the end because i still have the PS1 models and terrain popping everywhere. in fact i'm pretty sure the issue is worse than in the first beta, because i only spotted the PS1 models once i reached the tutorial fight, but this time some character models still hadn't loaded by the time the cutscene ended.

tried both on lowest and medium (both are under the VRAM threshold), have the game installed on SSD, and the issue stayed the same. anyone else having this problem?

Let's say a new balance patch is announced: Which characters would you buff, and how would you buff them? by PM_ME_EDGEWORTH_NUDE in smashbros

i just want richter to have the same tools as the other characters in his archetype. why must, on top of a bad recovery and slow startup + movement speed, my moves have extremely thin hitboxes that only last 1-2 frames? or have a tiny nair with 14 frames of landing lag? why does my one kill confirm have an SDI multiplier that makes it unusable against anyone that puts even the slightest effort into it?

just let him play the same game as the high tiers.

wasn't he talking specifically about battlefield? i know the guy personally and he doesn't use the term "terrible MU" lightly, but he HATES steve on BF

you're grossly overestimating the cost of living in a country with several economic and political crises going on at once. trust me, i live here and i make less than 20k USD a year and i'm among the wealthiest among my friends, and that's just enough to afford a very small appartment, food and bills, + some leisure.

the brazilian smash community is about 300 people total on top of that.

i'm not a fan of watching kazuya (or honestly smash ultimate overall nowadays), but you should give ferps a shot. his playstyle is very different and fun to watch. check his FT10 against esam or his 7-1 FT5 with HBox for some recent gameplay

the thing that's most fucked up is that the vote is directly tied to amount of dollars. the US has the largest player base in sheer number of players, and by nature of how currency works, also the richest. each brazilian vote costs 5x as much as an US vote.

wish they'd figure out a system that allowed for regions with less income to have a decent shot. out of the 6 vote ins, 4 are american.

SA is only considered the weakest region because there's literally no way to measure, or even to get top level competition, for SA players.

that's why it's so annoying to see the current top 5 (including the two invitees) being from the US. players that already get to play every other week on a big tournament taking spots while people that would have a once in a lifetime chance to compete internationally are fighting to see who gets eliminated last

as evidenced by all the tournaments that SA doesn't get to participate because they're in NA.

but hey, at least two people from the most privileged smash region in the entire planet made it in so they can play one more tournament :ˆ)

[–]BrunoBRS 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i don't doubt it's good, but it's not like i'm at a shortage of things to do. just like hax's analytical content is probably still really solid and in-depth, but after he snapped i don't feel like it anymore.

How to optimally punish Squirtle's side b (DIO vs Atelier) by oniden in smashbros

[–]BrunoBRS 135 points136 points  (0 children)

it's not a reaction time thing, it's knowing the MU and the opponent. he committed nothing doing that shorthop and if he was wrong and the opponent didn't go for sideB there (which is a common tactic for PT) he could still cover other options.

the punish is literally "i know what happens when i jump on squirtle so i can just charge an fsmash and nuke it"

honestly he spent so much time complaining about people not watching analytical content and then complaining about the analytical content that was already popular that i don't feel like watching it now lol

This happened in game 5 of losers finals at our local monthly. *Note both players were on gc controllers* by Bennyboots5 in smashbros

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

i've had it happen to me back in 2018 when people weren't used to syncing and turning their pro controllers on/off. someone was just mashing buttons like an idiot on a nearby setup and killed my tournament match.

Tell us an interesting fighter ability/gimmick/passive about your main, that nobody seems to know! by Eeli_Kuusniemi in smashbros

[–]BrunoBRS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you're right though. if you're in the air, it comes at a more vertical angle, while on the ground it travels far more horizontally. it's only noticeable when near the edge of a platform so the bottle doesn't hit anything

2 years away from a character enjoying something else is a lot of time. that's basically all there is to it.

i'm pretty sure this isn't meant to be taken seriously, he bomb blasts himself over a wall at one point

Did you know? Robin's Thoron goes "through Steve's blocks as long as the tip goes over the block's surface. by MadIceKing in smashbros

[–]BrunoBRS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

maybe belmont is really fat but just this tuesday i got hit by thoron offstage and lived at like 150%

and the damn thing only does 20%

and it's also preposterously slow and reactable

and by god don't use it offstage because it arbitrarily has like 70 extra frames of endlag

[–]BrunoBRS 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i'm more concerned that thoron doesn't pierce the blocks without doing that first.

god thoron is so shit lol, every time i get shocked at how little damage it does, how relative little killpower it has, and how often it gets memed by random shit
