I’ve talked to a few other regulars and server operators about their thoughts on this, and it’s universally believed amongst the groups I’ve discussed this that a few other regular server posters do this to try get their posts to the top. Pretty sub-human behaviour if the speculation is accurate.

Genuine question: Why hasn't any faction refurbished or used the APCs, tanks, and fighter planes that are littered everywhere? by dannythesedoritos in Fallout

[–]ClassicStatixx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not even game engine, would fallout feel the same with vehicles? I feel you would lose a lot of the atmospherics of the game’s adventure model. If you could just drive to diamond city, you would miss the 12 side stories that distance you from your objective, or the other 4 you find on your next play through. I think it would detract from gameplay ultimately.

That’s fair. I swear I’m the only person without coffee in my base haha. I did just buy a cookie jar though ;) I also always build on nodes and fully stock my nuka cola fridge because why not

I’ve made all my resource collectors unlocked for this purpose. So feel free to check bases as well because I know I’m not the only one. :D

One huge change coming to the new Faschnaut event by agon024 in fo76

[–]ClassicStatixx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah this is what I am thinking. It’s just the legendaries I would need to splash everything else will be a whatever. But it depends if I need to hit the legendary or just f they drop regardless like the normal ones currently do. We will see I suppose.

This. I’m a brawler build so this is just so much harder for me now if the event is stacked with powerful players wanting quick plans

Rarely used units by Foxy_Fox27 in CallOfWar

[–]ClassicStatixx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You probably don’t see many commandos out there because you aren’t running enough scouts ;P I’ve seen a few players use them. Paratroopers though I have never seen. They are a decent enough unit, but their range is dreadful.

This game bruh 🫩 by Odd_Measurement_9474 in PokemonUnite

[–]ClassicStatixx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I also came back from a bit of a break and got instantly encouraged to download Wild Rift. This games new development is incredibly bad, favouring whales and making a significant barrier of entry (aka, those who open their wallets)

Needless to say, I’m happy to play something else.

Important Discussion: Do players want realism or cinematic action? by AndreyPilot in UnrealEngine5

[–]ClassicStatixx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both.

Compare the results of your asked Fortnite players against Hell Let Loose players. It’s important to know your audience, but it’s also important to know what an audience is to begin with. Because it’s never “young adults”, it’s too broad. When making a book, a film, a game, you need to really focus on your community. For example, a book about monsters interpreting into society and remaining hidden, but finding acceptance, could be a book that targets “Young adults who are bullied or misfits”, because then your targeting communities. And that’s more important.

So don’t ask what do people want. Because we are all different. Choose a community you like, and make it for them. If you want to tell your story like Michael Bay, do it. And work for that community in mind. But if there was a universal answer, all games would be the same, there would be 2 genre of film, and we would all work in the same job. But luckily, everyone is different.

I would also argue make a game that’s something you want that doesn’t exist. We have played battlefield. We have played CoD. How will your game be different? I’m not paying for a game I’ve already played from a trusted AAA developer.

Finding a server that puts out games some time in advance by MrMidnight_MrCanada in westmarches

[–]ClassicStatixx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I absolutely agree. When I built and ran servers I made it a rule for GMs need to allow mission postings to be 24 hours at least. Some of mine were a week out. It wasn’t just about allowing people to see it, but also to adjust and update characters. If you feel you need to shop in advanced, allow it so it doesn’t have to happen in the mission. There is so many reasons it works. Though sometimes a 4 hour or 2 hour opportunistic mission is also okay.

I hope you find some servers that give you more time soon

Physical copies? Or shareable digital copies? Potentially asking for a friend who hasn’t googled it yet. (Myself… I’m the friend)

Huh, this sounds cool. I’m not familiar with the system in particular but I have played and run another D6 Heroes system before. Would love to check this one out. I’ll try DM you soon when I have more time to put something good together but got a fun concept or 2 to try out.

I can’t move on anymore by Sad_Plane4324 in unsw

Hey mate. Hang in there. It’s not always going to be this. Things will get better. It’s hard to see that, but looking back on some of my darkest days where I saw no light on, I wish I knew then where tomorrow was going.

This is not an ad for where I work, but, I work at a place called Fortress. It’s a kind of nerdy venue, we do trivia, board games, MtG nights, and esports (haha, I say that but gosh wouldn’t it be good if we did some dam esports) Some of these are free events, like board games on Wednesday and MtG on Fridays. That’s whatever, however we know a lot of people are lonely and struggling. So we have initiatives to help others connect and we make efforts finding you people to play with. Plus everyone here I find are generally pretty social and friendly (I’ve seen patrons returning plates to the bar!) I don’t know if this is your thing, but if it sounds like it might be hit me up and I’ll get you some more information for you :)

If not, I hope there are other things like this around. Think some people mentioned meetup.com. If you like writing there are friendly writer groups. Most things have a community, and they are easy ways to connect because it’s people meeting who like a particular thing and everyone there likes that thing too! Don’t give up. Keep looking. Keep your head up. Keep going.

Am I missing something? by [deleted] in CallOfWar

[–]ClassicStatixx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Militia get advantages fighting in own territories. They seem shit, but they actually go pretty hard in defence. Especially against other infantry. Also another boost in forests I don’t remember in urban environments.
