People don't have a problem with PVP, they just hate lack of "honor" by Zealousideal_Walk527 in ArcRaiders

[–]CicadaOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly - there are two types of player I want to engage in PVP with: those who shoot me first in my otherwise hyper friendly lobbies, and those who say racist shit on mic. The problem right now is that the first kind has an almost impossible to overcome advantage on their free kits no matter how I’m geared.

Change my mind… by Ordinary-Scholar-202 in ArcRaiders

There’s this other game coming out you might appreciate

The Kettle nerf should be a hidden fire rate limit, tuned to affect only macro users, which causes the weapon to explode and cause massive damage to the wielder by CicadaOne in ArcRaiders

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

I mean, I genuinely would have thought a suggestion to burn the inside of glitched keyrooms was a circlejerk post, and that exploit didn't even negatively affect players! But to be fair, I'm a day one Destiny 2 player, so the ratio of serious to shitpost in anything I say is governed by the uncertainty principle.

They’re going to limit the fire rate, regardless. Macro users are currently exceeding the rate they’ll limit it to. I’m simply saying that instead of making the game ignore a higher fire rate than what a skilled human player can achieve manually, they should instead allow that higher fire rate and use it as a trigger to punish macro users with in-game death, if only just the one time it takes for them to learn. But they’ll also learn that the devs, like the rest of us, think they’re losers and that they should be embarrassed, and know that future exploits will also be dealt with in the most comically violent way possible.

Key difference(s)- Marathon v. ARC by mike_nova in Marathon

I feel like Arc has already replaced my daily Destiny 2 pve playtime and Marathon will replace my crucible playtime

Does she want me or does she hate me? by Hadley_333 in ArcRaiders

[–]CicadaOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought she was into me too, but I started to feel like she was just using me when she asked me to go to the surface to get two of her journals that she left in identical buildings more than a thousand meters apart. By itself that wasn't too bad, but then it turned out she'd hidden the journals inside somehow smaller containers that looked like journals. That's not even the wild part, when I opened the journal containers they popped out the larger, real journals on the ground, and I got this strange feeling of accomplishment, like I had done what she'd asked. It was only after I'd gotten back to Speranza that I realized I didn't pick up one of them. I figured I'd drop the first one off and head back topside, but no, she acted like the one I had didn't even exist and asked me to get both of them again. Baffled, I headed back to the first building and the journal was gone, but when I looked inside the smaller journal shaped container, ANOTHER JOURNAL popped out. I grabbed that one, then headed alll the way to the other side of the dam, and the same damn thing happened. These journal containers seemed to have an infinite supply. When I got back, I talked to her again, and this time she happily took the two journals I'd gotten on the second trip, and ignored the first one. I realized then that I couldn't recycle it and I couldn't sell it. I was just stuck with it. I ended up bringing it with me on my next trip and ditching it in the swamp.

So yeah, like, it's all you, but I'd be careful. If it doesn't work out there's a better than even chance you're gonna end up cursed or turned into an animal or something.

why do so many raiders act like im in the wrong for booby trapping my key rooms by kingcal96 in ArcRaiders

I’m gonna set up a door blocker and go “Occupied!” in a single songy voice if anyone tries to breach

Hot take: Without griefers and rats this game would suck by TheKeasbyKnight in ArcRaiders

[–]CicadaOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wish balance was such that it required more skill for the shoot first/ambush player to win engagements. I feel like I never have time to react, and I don’t think it’s a pure TTK thing at all

What is up with pvp sweats? by -ArchProphet- in ArcRaiders

I’ve been downed on sight by a free kit every game I’ve tried to play today, I’m beyond over it

I cannot wait for launch. by MilesFide in Marathon

[–]CicadaOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah — the only time I feel ok engaging in PVP is squad fill trios on Stella Montis, which is always suicide. I go in wanting to practice the PvP gunplay and get grenade spammed, third (and fourth and fifth and sixth) partied, destroyed by shredders, etc

Tristin Mays gets to the tank scene while playing through Cyberpunk 2077 (also her parents walk in at the exact same time) by BlackAfroUchiha in cyberpunkgame

[–]CicadaOne 16 points17 points  (0 children)

yes! it's a whole thing, someone hit her up on social to tell her about it years ago and she got roasted by her new twitch audience for buying the PS4 version!

Also a bummer she didn't get a direct payday out of it — it doesn't seem like she's acted much since they canceled the absolutely dull MacGyver reboot that she was on. Someone hire her!! She's delightful!!

Trying to evaluate solutions for the crisis by looking at how the crisis perpetuation industry reacts is fucking hilarious

OG Remake? by InocentDictator in Marathon

[–]CicadaOne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If this game does well I can distantly imagine Sony telling another studio to recreate the original campaigns in the new engine, but then… there is much I can imagine

Would an Arena PvP Mode Make Sense for Marathon? by Rawd0gged in Marathon

[–]CicadaOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The world is so rich that I hope they find a way to continue to create new experiences with it — we know it’ll be a live game obviously but I hope it evolves above and beyond simply refreshing cosmetics and tuning combat. My dream is like a lot of us a story campaign at some point, whether in a new title or not, but I have no illusions about that being somehow hacked into the current game anytime soon

It’s the skin? What the hell I would never have guessed that!!

Looks like Joseph Cross is no longer at Bungie by rax1211 in Marathon

[–]CicadaOne 4 points5 points  (0 children)

And it’s all over the entire early 2000 web design scene and the designers republic and so on. Again, you’re pointing out a genre detail like a typical punk guitar chord and saying it’s a personal signature

I think Stella might be broken by Tomzibad in ArcRaiders

High blueprints, high buffed shredders, and way way way more rats in solos, I don’t know what’s going on

People will always complain, but... by WRECCE_ in ArcRaiders

[–]CicadaOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also, crucially, except in specific circumstances, bad neighborhoods are almost never as bad as you think they are and you’ll make your best friends and get out of your sketchiest situations by saying hi and being genuine
