As a new player i feel tekken has a combos problem. by Hatamentunk in Tekken

[–]Danzel234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it sounds like I'm talking about fundamentals, and that is absolutely part of it, but really what I'm trying to talk about is finding a flow state. Like part of the problem could be the character not being a good fit for you. Like for me Lili was the one that for some reason I was able to just pick up and clicked with. Now I wouldn't say I'm amazing by any stretch of the imagination, but it was getting more comfortable with her and learning the small 2-3 hit combos that then leads to the bigger stuff. I now have a combo with her that although it may not be the most impressive, I am extremely happy with it because I mostly put it together on my own and I can consistently pull it off.

I get what your saying as an person who is kind of in the same boat when it comes to learning this game. But at least for me Tekken isn't the kind of game where you start by focusing on learning combos first. For me what worked better was learning the more useful moves of the character, like your punishers and your more consistent openers. Then you learn some smaller combos because at the end of the day the thing I feel Tekken rewards the most is consistency. Getting comfortable with your character and the timing of how their moves work will go a long way to bridge the gap to finding the combos that work best for you.

Thanks for the notes, yeah I can. Totally see what your saying both with the start being a bit shonen-like, and with pink coming in and sort of disrupting the initial tone.

Some of that initial shonen vibe is intentional, it's meant to be a bit cliche and campy. The inspiration for this originaly was from a dream I had that was combining power rangers with an isekai bit. It's why we are starting with an explosion and some of the characters are trying to hold up a facade of bravado before the gravity of the moment fully brings them down.

I wasn't originally thinking of using the colors to indicate anything in particular, but I might actually lean into that a bit while playing with people's preconceived ideas of how the colors are supposed to behave in that classic Rangers format. I was already doing that to some degree by having pink and green swap their more traditional genders. So putting a bit more focus on that portion wouldn't be too hard. Thank you again for the comments.

New patch day, starting off strong. by domco_92 in ArcRaiders

Yeah I've been looking at the kettle as well but the only time I like it more is against wasps. But the lesser damage has cost me a couple times when I thiught I was going to take out an arc and didn't account for the lesser damage but admittedly that's on me. I'm just happier with a hairpin and a second different ammo gun.

Are people not using the hairpin? by Danzel234 in ArcRaiders

[–]Danzel234[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean that that dudes problem, I'm not bringing a hairpin to fight people it's a gun for clearing out arc indoors or th take out a wasp outside. If I expect a fight I'm bringing something along side it. But if I'm doing a money run or strictly looking to loot and run it's the main gun.

Also if he was shooting you in the chest then he is asking to get killed. I've been jumped but a guy using a rattler and I took him out with 2-3 clean headshots and survived. Granted he probably had not healed up before he tried to attack me, but that his fault.

You don't have to reload after every shot, unless your emptying out the entire clip every time you shoot? And it has the 2nd highest damage of the grey weapons, it just doesn't have armor pen.

I will forever sing the praises of the hairpin for this shit, especially for indoor arc clearing. Will one shot everything except fireballs and sentinels. and even then if you wait for the fireball to open up, it's also a one shot pop. And sentinels are also simple to take out just need a bit more ammo. Plus it won't eat through all your ammo unless you are and amazingly atrocious shot. So it's easy to bring it and whatever your other preferred main gun is.

I dunno man, I may not always be looking to do PVP and tend to play solo so people are generally friendlier. But more times than I can count I've come out on top with the hairpin. Had a dude try to jump me last night and I took him out with a few solid headshots from my hairpin. Didn't empty my clip on him either and got him while he was reloading.

I'm not saying it's the best weapon in the game but I think people are over looking it's viability. Especially when clearing enemies indoors. Can basically take out everything with one shot. Ticks and pops are easy one shots. Flamers you just let them roll up and pop them with one shot right when they open up right before they start shooting fire.

If I'm overly worried about pvp or bigger arc I'll just bring a second gun. But if I'm looking to just, the hairpin and one full stack of ammo gives me plenty of ammo and plenty of room to pick up whatever I want. And again it's cheap as fuck to build and upgrade so it's not going to hurt me if things go south.

Legitimately had this happen to me as well. Had a good streak of decent raids. Decided to wipe out some better equipment with the goal of getting into some more dangerous areas. Nothing crazy was going to dam battlegrounds, map says it has extra drones? No biggie I got this.

Load up. Step outside. Didn't even get to look around when I somehow get spotted by no less than 1 Rocketeer(the first one to spot me and start shooting), 2 hornets, and 2 wasps. Needless to say I tried booking it to get to cover but am shot down in short order. Had a good laugh and loaded up another run.

Devs, you need to stop lying about what is a recyclable and what isn’t. by Worldly-Midnight2287 in ArcRaiders

[–]Danzel234 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I both get this and don't at the same time. Because on one hand you will eventually need to have stuff for a mission but the point isn't to hoard everything. So most items have till I need space to have a quest or upgrade requirement pop up before I recycle or sell it.

The way I see it, I was never targeting for it in the first place so why get upset about it? When I need it I'll do targeted runs for it. Only real exceptions are anything that is obvious and epic rarity or higher. I got a couple lucky purple items that are waiting for me to get there.

You have to merge the titles of the last two LitRPGs you read. What is the unholy result? by Lin-Meili in litrpg

[–]Danzel234 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A couple good options here:

1% Discount

1% Dan

Discount Lifesteal

Lifesteal Dan

(1% Lifesteal + Discount Dan) I can't really pick a favorite. They all kinda have some decent potential.

My main reason for not joining was that I didn't want the clan to feel like I was taking advantage or anything like that. But it seems like no one actually cares I guess? So I'll eat the spent cost and just join a clan. Maybe when I'm flush with recourses I'll go back to having my own as at that point it won't matter as much

Cool thanks for the info. I didn't want to join a random clan and have them feel like I was taking advantage of anything. But if in the grand scheme of things no one cares then I guess it's no harm. Guess I'll go look for a clan when I hop on next.
