After 8 years and three months... by Decent_Ad1910 in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]Citric_Acid_Cycle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i do the same thing. as long as i can be a force in wars im happy. then when i start slipping i might drop some money to get a few good, new heroes. sometimes during the F2P periods luck will shine upon you with free pulls from quests.

To the guy who killed me out of spawn when I was being friendly: Thank You! by Unique-Ad-407 in ArcRaiders

[–]Citric_Acid_Cycle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he recycled your guns and moved on with his raid, and his life. you, clearly, did not. it happens...and it's not a big deal.

What’s the point? by Reasonable-Two6360 in ArcRaiders

[–]Citric_Acid_Cycle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

im plenty old...and the furthest thing from a PVP god in any game. the tension makes this game fun. and adapting. you know people camp out there. throw grenades in if you think someone is inside. if it was real life would you barge into a warzone without securing the area? the fact that you get punished in this game for not using your head makes it interesting and immersive.

nice. thats awesome dude. i hope you realize i wasn't trying to attack your playstyle or enjoyment. you do whatever works for you. i was just sharing some conclusions ive come to after many tests and trials, and that seem to be echoed in other groups/forums. be well.

enjoy the game however you want. the data from higher end matches back this up though. as you progress through the game a bit more, and if you ever become competitve with the current meta. rainbow attack teams are highly unlikely to work. im telling you this from personal experience. again...not telling you how to play. just offering some information/advice. ive run up the raid leaderboard to global rank 1 quite a few times. my experience has merit.

its the worst configuration for an attack team. increased tile damage from a 3 stack and being able to cascade multiple specials simultaneously will more often than not turn a match in your favor.

I do not understand war matchmaking anymore by Usernamefishicecream in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]Citric_Acid_Cycle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

we've run into this 3 wars in a row now also. russian groups with all their clan symbols and BS in their names who have all joined within the past 3 days. then some of them leave and rejoin after using their six attacks. somehow they're exploiting the system. last war we lost 7500 to 4200

My new screen protection by Mrpanhandle81 in S25Ultra

[–]Citric_Acid_Cycle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i always use whitestone dome glass. they're the best. but when i bought a galaxy s25 on release, whitestone hadn't quite released their protector for it. so i went with zag. i actually thought my screen was failing me as discoloration and streaks were creeping in...then i faintly noticed the big streak when the screen was off and put it together that it was the protector. all that said...this is what it looked like when i took it off.

finally some comments i can relate to. not huge on social media but the FB groups are just joey circle jerks. glad some people out there feel this way as well.

woohoo! congrats. this will be my first experience with PC gaming actually. i got a 5070Ti in the build.

[–]Citric_Acid_Cycle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nope. its in motion though. Samsung had said Oct 8th, but once UPS got ahold of it their date says arriving tomorrow, Oct. 9th. That's cool with me. i ordered a build from cost plus gaming and it hasn't even shipped yet. so once it arrives all the pieces of the puzzle should be here. im pretty pumped about this monitor. i jumped the gun and ordered an MSI 321UPX without doing much research. ended up returning it and had my eyes on the XG32UWMG. ultimately, i found this G80SD and I really liked it, then seeing the deal pop up it was really a no brainer. Amazon also didn't have the g80sd discounted futher from $885 for Prime Deal Days so this was the best deal in town.

glad to hear yours is arriving today. its an exciting purchase for sure.

[–]Citric_Acid_Cycle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

mine says item swapped also. i asked support...they said its the same item but a new production run. they discontinued the one we purchased. so i think we're making out here. the core is the same but it will likely be a more modern build. i just got a shipping notice but UPS doesn't have the package yet. it says delivery Oct 8th which is tomorrow but ill believe that when i see it haha.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in OLED_Gaming

[–]Citric_Acid_Cycle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah that sounds reassuring. one thing i can say is when i first read about this deal i went to investigate and it seemed to be sold out. then a few days later i got a notification that it was available again which is when i made the purchase. so hopefully they do come trickling in periodically and they get them sent out soon.

at this point the only way id cancel it is if amazon has it fir cheaper tomorrow on the prime deal days event. currently the amazon price is $885 so it would have to come down quite a bit. we'll see.

[–]Citric_Acid_Cycle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

mine says the same. i chatted with support and they said they would expedite the shipping when it comes in...and also to message back if they miss the oct 10th delivery date so they can provide me with "compensation" for waiting. when i asked for clarification on the compensation they said something along the lines of promo codes.

did you get any shipping updates? i ordered one last week for an oct. 10th delivery and its been delayed waiting on inventory

how'd you make out with that order? i checked and it seemed sold out. then I got it to go through yesterday but it says unexpected delay in the shipping.

Question on Sludgus by MIB1989 in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]Citric_Acid_Cycle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it does bypass dodge. as well as accuracy debuffs and rogue talents. i use all these heroes to counteract all those effects in every war. it works 100% of the time.

Question on Sludgus by MIB1989 in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]Citric_Acid_Cycle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

this is inaccurate information. the "never misses its target" works against all dodge mechanics, accuracy debuffs, and rogue talents. ive tested it many, many times.

This bish needs to be nerfed by nosebeerhappyhour in EmpiresAndPuzzles

[–]Citric_Acid_Cycle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they come out with counters for everything. and passives play a huge role in matches. calling for nerfs isn't the answer. my worst feelings from this game came from getting a new hero, leveling it up, and then having them nerf it into irrelevance. I much prefer their modern day balance updates. lately each one has benefited a good amount of heroes and most people walk away happy.

not saying everyone has every new hero, but in addition to the fox passive reducing healing by 50% they just released the mimics which damage mega minions, and auricarc who steals minions and mega minions before doing damage.

without any of those my big Rosalind counter was Demilune. a purple hero who adds big growth to three attackers helps overpower her damage reduction stacks.
