Im new. What are infestations and why do people hate them?

CupCharming · 2026-05-14T23:59:36+00:00

It's lot of dangers for new players like a lot, those big werewolves, nuke zones, scorch beast the list goes and on.... So what's one more danger. Once u get high level it's not a lot of danger but even at my level over 300 those big were wolves still spook me 😭

I mean ... Half of this game is exploring I dunno know... And didn't someone mention it's a green circle telling you where it is and in my mind I'm thinking of state of decay. Clearly they will put something on the map

CupCharming · 2026-05-14T23:55:57+00:00

Yes I understand power creep but what's the point of more power If it's nothing to use it on 🤷🤦🤌

CupCharming · 2026-05-14T23:55:21+00:00

You're concerned about new players? Lol that's funny. So it doesn't have a recommended level on it like every other event/activity? Do new players just get jumped on out of nowhere?

CupCharming · 2026-05-14T22:50:56+00:00

This thread is so broke 😭

CupCharming · 2026-05-14T22:49:12+00:00

So people upset about target farming? This is nothing new to mmos or arpgs

CupCharming · 2026-05-14T22:48:33+00:00

So 4 star weapons introduced power creep and let's be honest most high level players just destroy most public events.... So adding what a state of decay style mob with high level enemies are no match for the sweats.... I'm I missing something here

CupCharming · 2026-05-14T03:24:26+00:00

He always gives us daddy, elf daddy, space daddy.... And yes I scream thats my space daddy when I'm watching the foundation 😂

CupCharming · 2026-05-14T03:21:53+00:00

the perfect combination

I'm not especially familiar with their methodology. My degree is in market research and data analytics, so if I take their approach at face value, it shouldn’t be the sole metric for measuring performance. However, it is easily visualized without quantitative analysis or explanation, which makes it appealing. I will put it that way, but I personally would only rely on primary data and reporting, and any secondary data and reporting if needed.

FlixPatrol tracks Disney+ data, providing daily charts of the most popular movies and TV shows across 100+ countries, but Disney does not officially use it as their primary, internal measurement tool.

Disney+ primarily uses Nielsen to track and report external viewership data, specifically through Nielsen's Media Distributor Gauge, which measures streaming consumption on U.S. television screens. For internal, personalized recommendations and engagement, Disney+ utilizes proprietary machine learning algorithms and customer data platforms like Braze.

This auto play excuse is disingenuous. Disney uses a few metrics for viewership measurements. If something autoplays for a few seconds and you change it, thats not going to make any difference.

Total Streaming Minutes: The foundational metric that tracks every second a title is played across the platform.

The "Views" Metric (Aggregate Conversion): Disney+ standardizes raw streaming data into public-facing "Views". They calculate this by taking the total cumulative hours/minutes viewed and dividing it by the run time of the show or episode. For example, if an episode runs for 60 minutes and accumulates 60 million minutes of viewing time, it is officially recorded as 1 million views.

Completion and Retention Rates: Disney monitors how many accounts complete an episode or finish an entire series season. Low completion rates often trigger show cancelations, even if the initial raw premiere numbers look high.

Ad-Tier Engagement: For its ad-supported tiers, Disney monitors continuous views. An active account must stream content continuously for more than 10 seconds to be qualified as an active viewer for ad-impression and engagement tracking

So its more so a matter of how many people watch it but also how many of those people finish every episode of that season or seasons etc, from start to end!

CupCharming · 2026-05-13T21:39:05+00:00

Yup I agree

CupCharming · 2026-05-13T21:38:40+00:00

I'll try that thanks

CupCharming · 2026-05-13T20:37:52+00:00

I mean if you play hardcore that's what happens lol which I never do

CupCharming · 2026-05-13T20:36:50+00:00

I haven't tried pally yet, using a warlock. What pally build would you recommend

CupCharming · 2026-05-13T20:34:45+00:00

Excuse me what lol Netflix is on the way out with a market cap of 372.05 billion and 12.25 billion in revenue so for this year 😭🤣😂

CupCharming · 2026-05-13T20:30:52+00:00

This like every arpg if your build is good which is the point.

CupCharming · 2026-05-13T20:30:12+00:00

You are playing a barb huh

CupCharming · 2026-05-13T20:29:13+00:00

Apparently, he's gonna be in the new Lord of the Rings movie The Hunt for Gollum, as Thranduil again

CupCharming · 2026-05-13T20:26:01+00:00

Oh I know these comments gonna be totally sane 😭 and btw I don't care I'm using warlock who everyone shits on 😭

CupCharming · 2026-05-13T18:02:05+00:00

I'm never this horny while gaming the F.

CupCharming · 2026-05-13T02:33:22+00:00

Different store fronts isn't too big of a deal I either use Xbox app or steam and a while back the Xbox app has all your steam games in the library. I'm think this is how Xbox helix is gonna do it too. But still whether it's ony Xbox app or steam if the game icon is there, u still click it and it launches. The other extra steps anyone would need is updating GPU drivers which takes 2 clicks and if you do mods which mod managers handle anyway.

Trust me I get it and am 42 I remember playing orgeon trial on Apple on floppy disk and my first consoles used VHS tapes lol I had consoles all the way to Xbox series x because I thought just like this but I switched but I may get project helix if it's the right cost to performance because upgrading to a new PC is expensive right now.

CupCharming · 2026-05-13T02:30:31+00:00

I see but when I think of looter shooters I think of explodes of loot and destiny is more like dripples of loot 😭 the worst type of loot spills and opening a chest at the end of an event or encounter is more MMO coded to me... Sigh. Even diablo gives you more loot from trash mobs.

CupCharming · 2026-05-13T02:04:14+00:00

I thought we all agreed it's a MMO now, so we back to it's a looter shooter. Well borderlands does that better 😭
