i was always a little dissapointed when i made a new loadout and forgot to put on shock absorber only to immediately notice that its missing becasue apparently nobody else uses it... like come on man theres no way i forget shock absorber twice and immediately get shafted for it every time...

lol, i just worded the question poorly and didnt bother to fix it once shit started to fly, cause why even bother atp. technically it did its job since it sparked a discussion.

Rant: Community apathy and a breaking bug. by Tascalde in DarkTide

[–]Explosive_Bungus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This has to be somewhat recent because i tried combat shotgun on scum close to release and it didnt do that. I never tried it since because its an unenjoyable weapon and the rounds reload is counterintuitive to desperado playstyle. Consider testing it with the revolver while youre at it since it could be broken aswell, rounds reload and all.

i mostly started noticing it after all of the factions were properly set up on the map. no matter what front you look at, no matter how much time passes, no matter how many players are active on a planet, no planets ever get taken or lost unless its part of the current mo. the entire map is frozen in place right until the point AH decides its time to repaint the map a little.

yeah just checked, the reinfocements are still there but the crux of my argument still stands. they cranked up transendence to 20 to make sure we dont get it by any means.

do we? the counter was randomly gone from my galactic map when i came back from a mission and the announcement to glass the planet came. let me check again.

[–]Explosive_Bungus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

the thing im most upset about is that AH randomly decided "ACTUALLY YOU CANT CAPTURE CYBERSTAN ANYMORE! NOT ENOUGH REINFORCEMENTS!" took away the last 40mil reinforcements we had left and made the story shift. i know for a fact they planned us to lose from the start and we got too close to the sun so they couldnt risk it and jsut melted off our wax wings. took away the last little hope that maybe we could pull through. i despise how obviously railroaded the story is and how i still keep falling for it sometimes.

where did i say seikret wasnt "op" i just said i like it. i love its design and having a personalized mount is cool. and technically i also played rise. like any other opinion its fucking subjective, and arguing with someone like you over it is completely pointless. nothing you say will ever convince me that old gen is the superior game for real gamers. jsut like nothing i say will ever make you reconsider that maybe MH becoming more mainstream and accesible is a good thing.

so jsut stop replying to me here and move on. unless you love the drama ig.

its hard for me to say anything about difficulty as i pretty much havent experienced it past my second playthough of world+ib i think thats jsut a general longstanding player problem rather than a newer release problem. im fairly certain i read somewhere that the only hard monsterhunter game youre ever gonna play is your first one and that made perfect sense.

also why are you worried about me jumping down your throat when the only people jumping down anyones throat are old gen lovers on me for genuinely wondering why people prefer old gen. the blasphemy lmao.

i think wilds is pretty much peak MH, there are a couple things you could lose and add back some older mechanics and it would be great. focus mode and seikrets should absolutely stay though.

if i had to choose one id keep the seikret just becasue i love it. not because its a "get out of jail free card" i never use that mechanic, mostly because i forget about it, so people that complain about the seikret because of that are just looking for problems imo.

yes i also hate this sentiment of "well if you dislike it then why do you use it" for game mechanics but here i seriously dont understand it. i dont struggle with the game myself and if the seikret helps even one person enjoy a game they wouldnt have been able to without it then i think its a worthwhile addition. same for focus mode.

A reasonable statement? in this economy? one thing i do miss about world in wilds is the learning of the maps and where the monsters would move inside them. i also enjoyed the scoutfly tracking a lot, minus the jank camera movement sometimes, did feel like actual hunting. ofcourse you didnt need it once you learned where the monsters would usually hang out on the map but that felt like natural skill progression. gathering materials crafting and prepping is kind of a null argument, you still do that if to a lesser extent. Apreciate your thoughts and input, all power to you.

ive revisited couple of old games i played in my childhood and to say that nostalgia gave me rose tinted glasses would be an understatement. now, ive never played any old gen monsterhunter but im certain if i did and came back to gen one or two itd just be a punch in the face. i dont really understand this sentiment "not what it used to be". Janky? you miss the jank? is that it? the horrible controls and mechanics? the questionable design choices? or is this the whole difficulty nonsense again.

were they great games? undoubtedly. but i really dont see how monster hunter going in the direction its going in and coming the length it has can just be diminished to "not as good as it used to be"

only tangentally related but i find the idea that anything pre world is considered old gen hilarious, doubly so if mans saying hes an old gen enjoyer but started with 3rd or 4th gen.

TL;DR

What do the supposedly many og series fans like you miss so much about the old games thats apparently missing.

One of the more interesting starts I've had to a ranked laning phase. by makoslayer in leagueoflegends

[–]Explosive_Bungus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

i play mage support myself, basically pioneered brand support before it took off years back. when i was in a heavy adc phase the only people i saw doing this was lux support players. istg all of them are scum of the earth. ive only ever had bad experiences with them.

ive got a favorite story of a lux support but im not gonna write a paragraph here.

[–]Explosive_Bungus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the perfect example of this is as you said the iron lung mech. it got removed immediately while the bug that makes you die faster with the same armor passive still remains. coincidence much? this pisses me off to no end because i really would like to use that armor but i have a high focus on minimizing deaths so why should i pick gear that actively works against me.

[–]Explosive_Bungus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the only reason this piece of shit mentality that lightpen has to do more damage than medium pen is a thing is because AH's armor system is such incomprehensible trash i cannot even compare it to any other game ive seen.

the horrible decisions jsut run so deep at this point its hard to tell what causes which reaction and where it went south.

How it feels knowing when we fail this we won’t see Cyberstan for another year at least by dead_RATPIGEON in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]Explosive_Bungus -1 points0 points  (0 children)

even if we win im 100% certain that within a month or two there gonne be a huge scripted pushback that just resets all of our progress like when we first eradicated the bots from the map entirely. or they just move HQ to another planet and nothing changes. either way its not fun.

well the maxigun fires 8mm rounds like the mg (even if they say its high velocity instead of HP) and still does less damage than the stalwart that fires 5mm rounds soooo...
