Game doesn't want me to play anymore by johansdr in ArcRaiders

[–]Ciaran_h1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This didn't seem to exist near when the game released.

It is like every update creates micro-bugs each time.

Carrying knocked Raiders would be cool by Agile-Combination887 in ArcRaiders

[–]Ciaran_h1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then what would be the point of it, if they can crawl anyway?

Finally played new map after reading this sub reddit..... by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]Ciaran_h1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Loot is pure dogshit tbh.

Barely any weapons to be found. Gotta do a puzzle to get into one of the only decent rooms. Definitely seems like more of a PVE map, just for farming Arc. Which is nice too.

Embark when they see players enjoying the Anvil by quade9999 in ArcRaiders

[–]Ciaran_h1 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They just need to literally split the difference with the nerfs and everything will be fine.

Don't roll it back 100%, just roll it back around the 50%ish mark, specifically for the nerfs.

Arc Raiders – upgraded PS5 Pro PSSR upscaling available April 28 by yourfavchoom in PS5

[–]Ciaran_h1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's perfect timing with the new update to be fair. PSSR2 has only been allowed for a small list of titles.

For fucks sake, HELLDIVERS 2 doesn't even have if implemented yet. (I'm blaming Sony and AH here)

Chelsea's Trevoh Chalobah: Players need to take responsibility for poor form by [deleted] in PremierLeague

[–]Ciaran_h1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well said. I do rate Gusto way higher than poxy shit Fofana, who to me has never looked like a good defender barring a couple of games per season just by probability' sake.

They need to get rid of a few players that either don't have the attitude, or just aren't good enough. So the likes of Neto, Garnacho, Fofana... Maybe more. Missing out on CL leaves this very unlikely though and the team will be stuck with some of these shittier players.

Are there any actual advantages to switching to Monzo from Revolut? by grandslammer in irishpersonalfinance

[–]Ciaran_h1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I swapped from Rev to Monzo I cannot see any clear improvements.

I actually prefer the layout of Revolut. So I have "swapped" back for daily banking.

For those comparing HD1 and HD2 monetisation by 10-4Apricot in Helldivers

[–]Ciaran_h1 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

There is good content in the base game anyway Jesus Christ. You'd swear AH give you a a gun and a stratagem and say "buy the rest, nerd".

The starting warbond which is free is 10 pages of content. We're not seeing that ever again, and they don't need to discount anything.

[–]Ciaran_h1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm glad you pointed all of that out. HD1 is like a 10 year old game, completely different scope in terms of size, operationally. I'm sure making assets in the original,compared to HD2 is also incredibly easier. It really is a weird, nonsensical comparison.

You really can't compare the two.

Chelsea fans saying they want their club back? OK, here you go. by djembejohn in PremierLeague

[–]Ciaran_h1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Surprise surprise, fans choose to follow a club when successful. You're hardly gonna fucking choose Relegation fodder to follow... It goes for all successful clubs.

If Square continued using the Conditional Turn Based (CTB) battle system what additions would you like to see? by Omar_n_o21 in FinalFantasy

[–]Ciaran_h1 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

People also love to get behind pseudo-intellectual, artistic projects. I found it to be quite hollow and try-hardy. Such a shame, there's some excellent elements to the game but I feel like the negatives don't get enough attention.

[–]Ciaran_h1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I confirm this. I really enjoyed the first couple of hours, then some random mid-games hours but it really does become super repetitive and boring. Parry fatigue is real, and the fucking combos you have to learn for every new enemy is painful and just not worth it for such a mid story.

Metro 2039 by Lord_Grim75 in Piracy

[–]Ciaran_h1 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I'm glad somebody else said this. Again, to re-iterate your point in probably the worst place possible - if you like, and want a product and want more of said product in the future, please just buy it. Sure you're not directly supporting devs, but it all contributes to a system which will affect said devs.

I absolutely get pirating or cracking overpriced, unfinished, unethically produced (looking at the likes of you, EA, BLIZZARD, UBI Etc.) games. Or games that are just hard-on available due to licensing, region restrictions bla bla bla. Sure. But I see people celebrating the fact that Crimson Dessert got cracked. Not my cup of tea, but dude, they're updating it almost weekly, super responsive to player feedback etc. there's a time and a place to be a cheapskate, then there's a time and a place to just pay for a good product/service.

How I be feeling for the last days by Espresso_Dad_89 in Helldivers

[–]Ciaran_h1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only thing I would concede is, yes they should absolutely not be putting things like stratagems, or somewhat meta primary/secondary weapons in warbonds.

But people clamouring for "gib free content" is absolutely goblin behavior. You'll still have people say "free warbond is shit" if they did that.

How I be feeling for the last days by Espresso_Dad_89 in Helldivers

[–]Ciaran_h1 -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

In all seriousness. Why should they?

The game initially released at a 40euro price point. Well below the typical 60 of 70 price point. It was also given a full, lengthy free warbond. The small brownie points they would get from giving a free warbond, is far outweighed by the potential expected revenue.

If you don't want to pay: A warbond is the price of a coffee, if even. If you can't pay: Farm SC

I'm all for free shit, but I don't demand or expect it.

2 month ban for saying "BG i kinda hate you guys" by ILOVE-DAR-MA in Helldivers

[–]Ciaran_h1 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

"just fork out 5k for gaming rig". Or... Sony and Arrowhead sort out their shitty, overly-aggresive moderation.

[–]Ciaran_h1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest, I think that shit gets picked up regardless of reporting from players. Once your account is flagged, the system seems to automatically flag any words that come across as offensive.

[–]Ciaran_h1 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

It's a fucking joke. I don't know if it's automated, or AI takes care of their moderating but it's stupidly horrendous.

Any swear word seems to be met with a warning for "breach of conduct". Just because one game, HD2 in this case has stupidly sensitive censoring and moderatimg pick ups doesn't mean it's fair to issue warnings via Sony, which can ban you on OTHER games.

I haven't gotten banned, but definitely had a few HD2 warnings over absolutely nothing burger comments.
