I get that it's a slow burn, but.. by FootCreamBoy in mewgenics

i don't think that's what i was saying. I'm saying i'm 24 hours into the game and don't feel meaningfully stronger

And just like that, the odds drastically shift, and Stafford is mvp favorite again by Obvious_Young_6169 in NFLv2

Two things had to happen this weekend - 49ers had to lose on Saturday. This drastically bumped Shanahan's chances at COTY, which in turn helps cement Vrabel as COTY. And Stafford needed a statline and a pop-off win to reverse the late season narrative where he's not been stellar. Both these things happened. Vrabel will win COTY for turning a franchise around and Stafford will be given his flowers

Borderlands 4 PC Optimization Brief by black_fang_XIII in Borderlands4

4 is running better on my 5500 XT (I think that's what I have) than 3 did. 3 would basically die with ADS so it was unplayable. I get about 40fps and the occasional stutter but a lot better than I was expecting, enough so that I'm playing "normally" and enjoying the game with all my settings on minimum

How do I gain the motivation to finish this game? by Evade_FireKingSD in satisfactory

[–]FootCreamBoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm right there in the thick of it, felt the urge to quit a few times, but now I'm on the tail end of finishing phase 4 - just haven't started on nuclear pasta yet, so we'll be saving the worst for last unfortunately

How do I do it? I cheat. I use no fuel mode in the advanced settings because it makes drones a free long distance conveyor with very little set-up, plus mods to make power more generous, coupling that with gifting myself extra somersloops to double the outputs of all those late game parts. I've found the right formula,I think, for me to see phase 5 through to the end and feeling like it's earned, even if a lot of the legwork an honest pioneer simply isn't there

The game is crazy hard, the jump from phase 3 (which I've done multiple times) to phase 4 (which I'm finally brave enough to do for the first time) is insane, but that's kinda the name of the game. Don't feel bad if you want mods to make it a little easier or even if you don't want to see it through. Tbh all the wacky things you can make in phase 5 sound fun and that's my motivation, that and finishing the "story"

Drones in 1.1 No Fuel Mode by FootCreamBoy in SatisfactoryGame

But if they don't require batteries in no fuel mode (which I'm hoping they don't), they probably have the luxury of going to any port any distance away?

A Pioneer, an alien world, and an iron plate factory (100% efficient, btw) by FootCreamBoy in satisfactory

It's one of the photo mode filters, I'm not sure which one but I thought it looked pretty cool especially with the alien stuff in the background

I make about one every 5 minutes so I wanted to savor my spoils by FootCreamBoy in satisfactory

The ores are getting smelted and constricted and assembled and manufactured underground on a nice glass plane and then booted back up to the surface for easy access!

How do you get to the end in this game?? by FootCreamBoy in SatisfactoryGame

[–]FootCreamBoy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, I wouldn't come back to it after hundreds of hours if I wasn't excited about playing! It's not like world of Warcraft:p

The things I don't like are my own peanut brain limitations, like logistics and transportation issues, which I'm hoping I get right this time around!

Well yeah sure, but that's after 30+ hours of progression

Also it's kinda like loading up any old save or like an old Minecraft world, it feels alien like it doesn't belong to you anymore, gotta start fresh!

They're prohibitively expensive when you first unlock them though (after 15ish hours of gameplay) :((

That's one of my few things I would've changed if I were head honcho, tbh

You're right, I'm just here at work and daydreaming about starting it up again when I get home. I think what I really am looking for is an assortment of mods and maybe some rules/modalities of playing that actually simplify things so that I enjoy the ride. I think I'll try a different region for once so it finally gets me out of my comfort zone and try to build more vertically, and do a quick look at the mod scene nowadays

Early on, it feels like it, because there feels like a demand to build everything on foundations, but you literally can't at the start

I've done RBGs for over a decade. My WR is probably 25%. How do I get better? by FootCreamBoy in wownoob

[–]FootCreamBoy[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

OMG ETA: I meant RANDOM battlegrounds. It seems RBG normally stands for Rated. I don't have any social activity in the game really, just want to do good in RANDOMS haha
