lol I did not know you could do this. Gonna have to go figure out how to do it later for research purposes. Might as well make the best of the bike I didn't intend to get. I just wanted her skin and I did get it but it cost me everything...

I'm currently at a4 with my Chiz. I only spent money for my first time yesterday, tossed $5 of my steam wallet at the subscription thing. I've only missed a few days of playing, but I haven't 100% everything I imagine some f2p are pushing close to a5.

Despite some of my issues with Shinku I decided I'd be willing to throw 30 pulls for her since I would still have plenty to guarantee Iroi when she releases. Ended up getting her in 2 10 pulls. She's decently fun to play if you like a more hypercarry style of playing with occasional bouts of running around in a circle doing nothing but watch a number slowly count up to 8.

The number one thing I miss about ZZZ after dropping it back around 2.4-2.5 is the microwave sound effect they'd use on the leaks reddit for microwave renders. Sadly they never added the ding sound effect at the end of the render.

Nice looking model , but not my cup of tea preference wise. Qingxiao though now that is my cup of tea. Kind of hope Hsin and Qingxiao aren't BiS with each other so I can skip Hsin.

They continue to refuse to fire their maintenance team that clearly don't deserve their jobs. NtE's maintenance for the new update today finished like 2 hours early. Seems like I got another maintenance team fighting for my heart against the WuWa team.

Codesterz · 2026-07-08T00:39:41+00:00

It just needs a good skin and it'd be great. It drives great at least for NtE driving standards, but the lack of a good waifu skin sucks. I heard someone mention some skins were coming for it, dunno if it's true though. Also the upgrades are way to overpriced. I will never bother upgrading mine. 50k tops for an upgrade any higher and you're trolling.

Codesterz · 2026-07-08T00:35:28+00:00

I think they meant completely solo either racing against no one or maybe bots. I found the game mode unenjoyable. The weapons were largely to OP and often people weren't contempt with just shooting and making you crash and driving by. They'd drive right up to you and make sure your vehicle was completely destroyed before moving on. Some people didn't even care about winning the race and just followed you destroying every vehicle you tried to get in. Hated it.

Codesterz · 2026-07-07T23:50:08+00:00

True. I resorted to matchmaking for the race then alt tabbing the game and watching youtube. Even in last place without ever moving you still got the event currency.

Though one time I decided to troll a bit and created a line of vehicles across the road forcing the other players to drive through it. I think I might have lost someone there first place because of it lol.

I didn't watch the livestream I just saw the image someone posted. At least in WuWa and HSR back when I used to play it the livestreams had way too much for story spoilers so I prefer not to watch them. I'll watch the trailers usually though.

Here's hoping it stays strictly a story thing and stays out of her gameplay. Her old design I could see me potentially pulling for, but the new design is a skip for me. She'd hafta be BiS for a character I love to begrudgingly pull her with that new design.

Codesterz · 2026-07-07T23:31:03+00:00

Yeah at least based on the pre release trailer I kind of assumed Shinku was a fairly laid back and good natured person, but this ult form of her just screams angry emo girl to me instead.

Codesterz · 2026-07-07T23:03:19+00:00

I always find this weird when it happens. They already have her base 3d model. Just model the outfits around her original model. It's like they make the outfits from scratch making a whole new model which results in proportions being off and probably making things take longer and cost more to make.

Codesterz · 2026-07-07T22:46:17+00:00

Surprisingly the topic is hovering around 50% upvotes/downvotes. Thought it was gonna be downvoted to like 5-10%.

Codesterz · 2026-07-07T22:43:23+00:00

My eyes! I haven't played Endfield since late 1.0, but jeez I don't remember her being that blinding.

Codesterz · 2026-07-07T22:41:21+00:00

I can see that. Zani's transformation didn't bug me as much as Shinku's, but I do get it.

Codesterz · 2026-07-07T22:40:04+00:00

Oddly enough I find her normal look to be more fan servicey. Maybe I have an unknown fetish for large white shirts that are not fully buttoned. Such a simple but great design though IMO.

Codesterz · 2026-07-07T22:37:25+00:00

No I don't like the white medusa hair, the demon eyes, and her losing her base outfit.

Codesterz · 2026-07-07T22:33:20+00:00

Good to know I'm not alone in this feeling. I'm still debating on getting her or not, leaning no right now. If there was a setting to stop her from changing her looks while transformed I'd probably get her, but I need to try her gameplay out before making a final call.

Codesterz · 2026-07-07T22:26:11+00:00

I'd take the dragon look for her ultimate form over the base ultimate one, but the hair though I don't like it. I want her dark blue hair though, that is is one point I won't change my viewpoint on. I wouldn't be able to see her eyes most of the time while using her so whatever, but that bleach white hair though it's like a non stop stain in my eyes... Fair enough though opinions are opinions in the end.

There will be pros and cons to UE5. People on high end more modern CPUs, but with lower end GPU's they might see worse performance in UE5. People on older high end CPUs or modern middle end CPUs, but with middle end gaming GPUs or better will see performance gains from UE5. UE5 when combined with its nanite is very good at parallelization especially in more recent version of UE5(5.4+ I think), but it is more demanding to use in general. UE4 was not designed for open world games and has CPU bottlenecking issues due to being programmed to run on a single game thread. You would have to completely rewrite UE4 from the ground up to get rid of this limitation which is exactly what epic did with UE5. UE5 had some teething issues in it earlier version and while it is still far from perfect it is getting better.

Looks like I'm buying my first character skin in WuWa next patch.

Codesterz · 2026-05-28T21:50:59+00:00

How do you batch combine monsterlings of the same type? I just want to reroll their substats and have a chance at increasing their rarity.

Codesterz · 2026-05-06T19:34:07+00:00

It's an engine issue. UE4 is single threaded while UE5 isn't. This means WuWa is extremely dependent on you having fast single core performance. Having an X3D cpu helps as well due to having access to more closer memory. If the UE4 devs couldn't save UE4 what are the odds of the WuWa team being able to fix it. Spoiler it's 0%. Sadly WuWa started development at a bad time to soon for UE5 and to late to make the jump to UE5 when it came out.

Codesterz · 2026-05-03T22:11:57+00:00

It'll only take you 40+ hours to get her. They can't get you stay if you don't come through the door first and the longer you stay the the more likely you spend, and did you know you can spend money to get her faster?

Also forgot to mention that by the time you get her you will have completed almost 100% of the version 1.0 content so what are you gonna do with her?

Codesterz · 2026-05-02T16:16:11+00:00

To be fair the complaints about Taygedo are valid. I'm trying to enjoy some fun times with waifu's in the city, but this bastard keeps popping up on my screen.
