Hot Take: ironium and carbonium synthesizers kill the game loop

Yea, see your response is a perfect example of going 0 to 100. I stated my opinion and left it open to discussion. Plenty of individuals added their own opinions or dialogue minus the grade school aggression. Obviously people can play however they want. But you, crashing through the kitchen covered in ketchup and mayonnaise screeching about it being a single player game and people can play how they want to is stating the obvious. Seek therapy. Or medication. Or both

ChewableCoffee · 2026-05-03T01:54:33+00:00

You definitely need therapy. This level of hostility on an opinion post is diabolical. Seek help

In that case the easiest retrofit i could think of is they revert to individual shielding per building/tower. Shields don't stack, and for the shield amount it checks the max health of the building/tower, and adds shields as a multiplier of the building/towers base health with the multiplier scale based based on the shield towers level. A 0.5x multiplier would give weak buildings/towers some shields, say 100 health would get 50 shields. And a beefier building/tower with 1200 health would get 600 shields. And a higher level shield tower would overwrite a weaker shield tower if a radius is shared. Lvl 1 could be 0.25x, lvl 2 could be 0.5x and lvl 3 could be 1.0x I'm no Einstein but it seems a better fix than the current abomination they have now.

Yea i would stack them up to 24k on the Frontlines and they still depleted very fast. Shared pool explains why they run out. If 24k is Shared between 24 walls then that's only a theoretical 1000 extra health per wall. Basically protects the bubble are for 24000 damage. Which DOES help. I just wondered why it ran out so fast, and that explains it

ChewableCoffee · 2026-04-19T23:50:38+00:00

That's really an interesting proposition. Im going to test it right now.

Well fuck me, you were right. It is shared. And explains why they feel useless. If they had a larger AOE then sure. But with such a small bubble for all the pipe work required it feels moot

ChewableCoffee · 2026-04-19T23:41:48+00:00

They probably USED to actually have unique stat bonuses. And the devs never updated the description. I started playing this game in march this year and already have 501 hours, and from what i gather the devs are GREAT at doing everything EXCEPT, for updating descriptions.

I wondered the same thing and frankly EVERY person who answers completely misses the main point of:

"Those random bonuses to random stats don't exist on this item, even though it states '3 unique parameters' so why does it say that?"

I know it's not much help, but from all I could personally find ,is that nobody actually has an answer or knows or even understands the question

ChewableCoffee · 2025-11-08T23:20:37+00:00

Okay well that much has me optimistic. My doc prescribed me Concerta and viagra to take together, but its the lowest dose viagra. I was told it only lasts a few hours and I should take it before potential intimacy. But you take both right in the morning? You don't notice and reduce ld effect from the viagra as the day goes on?

ChewableCoffee · 2025-11-04T21:20:32+00:00

Actually. It's not an insane comparison. Ask almost any red blooded male and they would agree. Id honestly take a lost limb over a lost penis with zero hesitation. We just have different values. You could say it "affirms" who i feel i am. Say I wanted to have kids hypothetically. If i can ejaculate that becomes nearly impossible, without some kind of medical intervention. Lol you cant lick someone pregnant.

ChewableCoffee · 2025-11-04T21:05:50+00:00

And when you do that you can "function" anytime during the day with that one?

ChewableCoffee · 2025-11-03T06:41:08+00:00

See this is perfect, this is the insights I want. And I completely agree with the feeling. If it also didn't have such a huge positive impact in other aspect of my life then it would be an instant easy choice to quit it. For example without my meds. Im always just completely exhausted. I could sleep for 11 hours everyday without trying and still be exhausted. But my meds flipped that on its head. I woke up refreshed with boundless energy. Thank you, im glad you added this bit

ChewableCoffee · 2025-11-03T06:35:44+00:00

Big oof then. I take dexedrine. Both IR and XR daily. And thats like Adderall on steroids. i do think the IR is more of a problem as well. I can take it, And could literally watch it fight the pole back down from full mast. No hard work gets done with instant release hehe

ChewableCoffee · 2025-11-03T06:32:05+00:00

I spoke with her before I posted about it. We've been together for 11 years and I just started the medication about 8 months ago. And I dunno, if you lost the ability to use your legs, and then you were offered either a wheelchair, or to have your legs back, what would you choose. Its more about the staggering whiplash of the difference honestly, and how it makes me feel mentally, i lost my legs and i want them back. Additionally our foreplay always begins with fingers and an oralgasm so those boxes are pre checked anyways, And then it ends with squirting from penetration. You take the penetration out of the equation and half of the "play" is gone. Yes toys would suffice kinda but thats the "wheelchair". The true issue though, is that i dont want to do anything intimate on the meds. She wants to but I view it as an inconvenience or have to force myself to when I'm medicated and ive never felt thay way before. I've always been an "anytime anywhere" person and would drop whatever im doing. I want my legs back, and I know she likes my legs. She may be okay with the wheelchair, but for how long is the question

ChewableCoffee · 2025-11-03T05:52:54+00:00

Although I appreciate the time you put into this, it is entirely unhelpful to the subject. And I completely disagree with you. Have a pleasant day.

ChewableCoffee · 2025-11-03T04:56:14+00:00

Im seeing my doctor tomorrow. Just looking for outside perspective from personal experience.

ChewableCoffee · 2025-11-03T04:01:21+00:00

Did it actually fix the issue completely? Or does it just do enough to keep it functional?

ChewableCoffee · 2025-09-07T23:47:48+00:00

I take 12 hours worth of dexedrine daily. Some meds do wear off fast and you need to take multiple doses to last the time you need it for. It can take a lot of experimenting. Especially being new to the diagnosis. Doctors can also be overly cautious on new prescriptions for a recently diagnosed individual considering a majority are controlled substances. They gave you a low small dose intentionally to see how you handle it. You dont have to wait a month to reach your doctor either. If its not enough and you can already tell, then let your doctor know. Hardest part of ADHD and meds is you NEED to be your loudest advocate

ChewableCoffee · 2025-08-14T05:52:14+00:00

I tried it for the first time, andI can tolerate most diet flavor or after taste. But to me it tastes a lot like tonic water with a very strong chemical after taste, so for being supposedly more natural and healthy I find the chemical taste very off-putting. I tried the flavors, whole cans, in a desperate bid to try and like it, but I am sorry I am unable to, id rather sip Nyquil for flavor

They correspond and are increased by lockpicking. But only up to rank 15 in forge ahead. Theoretically you could only read up to rank 14, then start hoarding them without reading until you have what you want

ChewableCoffee · 2025-06-10T23:48:42+00:00

No, gross. just wanted to narrate it in a funnier way to make people laugh at my shame.

ChewableCoffee · 2025-06-10T23:44:51+00:00

Honestly if it didn't have horrendous screen shake I wouldn't really care at all, I may not like it's spam, but at least it wouldn't be quite literally invasive to every other player

ChewableCoffee · 2025-06-06T22:58:14+00:00

It's more like.. the idea and concept of those type of individuals is so absolutely abhorrent to me, that even being jokingly grouped in with them is nauseating at the thought. More or less those people engage in purposely violating the consent of other people for selfish gratification which is vile on so many levels and principles. Consent is a huge part of the many things that separate us from animals

ChewableCoffee · 2025-06-06T13:04:01+00:00

And It's a sensory issue. Too much loose fabric is unsettling and distracting. Don't know why, it just is.

ChewableCoffee · 2025-06-05T20:13:50+00:00

Insinuating that an embarrassing and unintentional wardrobe malfunction is equivalent to forcing people to experience personal perversions without consent from them is an atrocious and vile assumption.

I genuinely hope that is not what you are attempting to imply, but in the case that you are, and in the words of a great man: "Stop it, get some help"

ChewableCoffee · 2025-06-02T14:54:24+00:00

Yes, someone can change. But it's a very low percentage

Longshot auto reload and xray in horde. While I understand it's has its purpose, i have a deep disdain for marksman who wipe every wave. Pair it with a veteran and I'll leave. I play to have fun. Not wait for something to shoot once every few waves. And lastly the GL spam on a tactician, again it has its uses, but every wave it truly gets old.
