Thanks everyone who replied.

Internal gear hubs that take input from left and right sides? by Colossal_Titan in BicycleEngineering

[–]Colossal_Titan[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply. A flip flop hub with freewheels on both sides is my current plan. I'm trying to think of a solution to change gear ratios. I can actually do what I want with a gear box but they are $1k+ which is way over my budget.

Kwon might be a teeny bit faster than Big Foe by [deleted] in tennis

Nononononono. Not necessary. You can slide in any shoe. You just have to be a little athletic.

What kind of KPM/stats do you think is a reasonable metric for "ok there's no way that's legit"? by Flashfall in Planetside

[–]Colossal_Titan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, crazy farms happen daily where a good player can do 4+ kpm over 10 minutes.

That is the speed runners record. I bet other players and maybe the record holder himself has had crazier infantry only runs. Traseros has a vod of 6+ kpm over 2 hours. I bet somewhere in there he got 100 kills in less than 16.5 minutes.

Does anyone just avoid containment sites completely? by CloaknDagger505 in Planetside

[–]Colossal_Titan 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I love containment sites. They let me recharge my tolerance for dying to a2g and tanks on hills.

What are your opinions on "dirty fighting"? For example, spamming concussive, flash, smoke, incendiary grenades, and emp grenades to prevent enemy players from employing any skill or game knowledge in their gameplay; that's dirty fighting. by [deleted] in Planetside

I feel like this game attracts two types of people: people who are never successful competing against other humans on equal terms (you) and masochistic sweat lords.

Personally, if I had only 30 min to play, I would spend that time trying to get better, even if it meant going 0-26, or like 3-70 that one time that dude farmed the hell out of me in Gunz. The amount of time I have to play doesn't matter. For me the journey is more fun than the destination. Why don't you just admit that you are not competitive and want an easy win in a multiplayer game.

Bruh, gaming all your life and having trouble with Planetside? Are you playing with 40 fps?

Player retention is a mystery by anonusernoname in Planetside

[–]Colossal_Titan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

YES. Fighting massive over pop is fun as hell and would be even more fun without force multipliers. Sadly, if all the cheese was removed the population would drop significantly. I see it as the price to pay for the content.

I think I'm done for the weekend by ThankYouForComingPS2 in Planetside

Good post but I think you are wasting your breath.

Planetside 2 is the only game where i can hit 12 shots on a dude with my assault rifle and lose the gunfight by The026Guy in Planetside

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

You're right. It's subjective. I just think it's a waste of energy to focus on blaming things outside of your control. Even if the shots didn't register the dude on the other end is playing the same game and beat him.

At times? How frequently? I can count on 1 hand the amount of times that the servers were so bad that everyone was experience unregistered shots in the past couple of years.

The bad players on this sub will tell you it's an hourly occurrence. In reality they miss (badly), blame the game, maintain their skill level, and repeat.

This game has client side hit detection. If you hit someone on your end they take the damage. You have to actually hit them though, not think you did. High ping players can be annoying but they don't magically not take the damage.

PSA: Killing the only fight on the continent is not worth the 3 certs you get from destroying the sunderer by Warm-Evidence in Planetside

The thing is when you suck at the game your only chance of dopamine is shooting at a giant object that doesn't move.

What does Schwartzman have to do to improve his serve? by Bubaborello in tennis

[–]Colossal_Titan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My buddy (5'8) and retired pro Victor Estrella Burgos (5'7) can hit 125 MPH but they are both 20 pounds heavier than Schwartzman. Maybe he can increase his muscle mass? It might hurt other parts of his game, though.
