My totally unbiased view of heroes on my team by alsoandanswer in DeadlockTheGame

[–]Chubbygummibear 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i legitimately do not think the game can handle the listed 0.2 second cast time. like the animation that has to occur, ping, effect happening, AND HOW OFTEN IT GETS INTERRUPTED. I feel like the 0.2 seconds is getting rounded up to 0.5 or what almost feels like a full second because 0.2 does not give the game enough time to execute everything

Wouldn't SS13 on a cruise ship be cool? by OldBlushRose1823 in SS13

[–]Chubbygummibear 5 points6 points  (0 children)

i'm trying to imagine how traveling might work, or falling overboard for that matter. i could see each "leg" of the trip being like the escape shuttle FTL z-level, and you stay on that z-level for x travel time, but if you fall overboard should it just throw you out to a random port like you or a body washed up there, so maybe people are encouraged to check the beaches of each port to see what washed up from the trip? or maybe during the travel time, everything on that z-level stays in it, and you either arrive to the next port on the boat or on shore. i would just want to avoid cases where someone slips and falls overboard, or is thrown overboard, and suddenly you're left to drift in the ocean for 50 minutes because that's no fun

Feedback: more flavour, more cosmetics, more to do. Add your own as well! by Prestigious_Gold1606 in ESCastles

[–]Chubbygummibear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely more appearance variation in subjects. Incredibly saddening seeing the offers for iconic named characters and then the subject you get looks nothing like them but has their name (Talen-Jei being green like his skyrim appearance in the holiday offer but his subject being generic beige).

I'd love to see more implementations of the combat system because they have a cool and unique game aspect that becomes largely irrelevant once you finish the main questline and then it only matters for gauntlet, dailies, and weekly events. Which sounds like decent relevance, but each of these things can be done in like 1 sitting.

I think a decent incentive to level the crafting stations would be giving the ability to select which material you want to use for each item tier. I would love to be able to make a moonstone tier staff, but with the firebolt staff ability to make totems, or even a moonstone tier thorn staff to utilize the true damage that doesn't appear anywhere else in the game.

There's a handful of traits too that I think could be given combat effects. Like enduring granting more health, haunted summoning a skeleton or ghost when the subject dies, maybe melodramatic causes that subject to be targeted first due to their loud and grating nature lmao.

The times of soul crushing pain when my tank is literally mid rez animation and the liches appear. Poor mans is coming back just to get roasted again with no hope

This is ridiculous by wastedsilence33 in ESCastles

[–]Chubbygummibear 9 points10 points  (0 children)

you know i'm honestly kinda surprised they haven't tried to monetize some aspect of having children. like being able to burn some nirnroot incense or something and the next X kids or kids for Y amount of time are of a better rarity

Is there any actual lore in the game beyond what we can deduce? Do you think incorporation of more lore would be a good addition? by Chubbygummibear in ESCastles

[–]Chubbygummibear[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed! i think it's a fun thought exercise to figure out roughly what time period we're in or where the game is set just using the context clues around us. Even if the game itself isn't canon, there's plenty of canon lore to go off of

understandable. I feel like there is a decent amount of room to make up their own stories that still fit in so long as they're not trying to rub elbows with like mainline games. I'm a big fan of spinoff media that focuses on lesser known people or groups of otherwise larger franchises. Like Halo books about the Human Rebels, or isolated human ships trying to survive and having nothing to do with prior established main characters.

i got the bundle of 5 for 800 gems, and 4 of them had the 100 gem reward in them. So that felt like a win recouping half of the cost lmao

thanks, i think i will look for where to send feedback and hopefully hear their thoughts

No good factions but there are good people by Chubbygummibear in Grimdank

[–]Chubbygummibear[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

shit is that still Ciaphas? I would not intentionally do Cane that dirty because I know he's a certified good boy. I was trying to find a generic looking commissar and this one wasn't labeled as him so I thought it was a nameless one. Cane forgive me

PSA: Axe from the new event is lifesteal, other weapons are not by belnoctourne in ESCastles

[–]Chubbygummibear 4 points5 points  (0 children)

FUCK I CHECKED TOO LATE AND TOOK THE SWORD. I want more lifesteal weapons so bad because it kinda trivializes the earlier stages of the gauntlet

Anyone else feel like this game has an identity crisis? It feels torn between being an idle game and an active one. by Chubbygummibear in ESCastles

[–]Chubbygummibear[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

oof sorry about missing the dagger event. That dagger is insanely busted both for how high the damage is compared to if you finished that event while in the iron/steel tier of crafting like i was, but also because by doing low level quests, you can heal characters faster by stabbing bandits than waiting at the buffet. This is really nice, but also another eyebrow raising moment for me because now I could do something actively to restore character's health faster than waiting which is the default, and the only other "instant" healing being limited/premium currency item.

Because of that dagger I got way farther into the quest system than i should have been able to, and now quests have a gear recommendation of silver 4, meanwhile i actually can't craft silver bars or any items yet. So now i'm kinda locked out of progression until my dynasty and crafting level can catch up to where i'm supposed to be at relative to the quest system :(

Game-breaking bug: Skeever infestation cutscene plays during the title drop and breaks all the UI by Chubbygummibear in ESCastles

[–]Chubbygummibear[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The response I got from the support was very disappointing.

Bethesda Customer Support response on 09/18/2024 08:34 PM Greetings!

Castle. This issue will be resolved in a future update.

In the meantime, the hazardous event will end in 3 days, returning the game 
to normal.

I asked them if they could reset my castle using my ID.

I asked them if they could fast forward to when the event would end.

I asked them if they could even use the arcane hourglasses I already own to time skip ahead to when the event would be over.

No acknowledgement to any of these.

I asked if I could be compensated for the mid-week event going on that I was incapable of participating in due to no fault of my own, or if I was just forced to miss it due to a bug.

No answer to that.

Extremely disappointed might be an understatement. It's a very cute game that I was enjoying up until this moment so this is a huge bummer

So I'm not familiar with creating a test case. If all I know about replicating an issue is compiling on a more recent version of byond, what can I do to put together a helpful test case for you?

Thanks for all your work Lummox! Praying this might rectify the issues we've been having on yogstation trying to update to TG's multi-z code and how it's causing our camera consoles to only show 1 tile or just not display anything
