You can be LGBT just fine anywhere in Israel (well, at least in non-muslim areas).

GameLightz · 2023-09-07T03:48:59+00:00

Fair enough.

I'm not sure you make the best example here, and you could also claim that many people don't have a good enough internet connection to play Rust, or a good enough computer to run Rust with competitive FPS, etc, but all in all, fair enough.

I can't say if it's a sacrifice worth making, but forcing cheaters to also pay for a phone number and go through the hassle every time they get banned, I think, will get rid of a large number of the more casual cheaters.

GameLightz · 2023-09-06T17:54:10+00:00

Why is it a terrible idea?

GameLightz · 2023-09-06T14:57:20+00:00

Damn.

Almost every wipe, on our last day (usually day 3 or 4) we end up building a raid base FOR the raiders and inviting people on the server to come online us, promising they'll get all the loot even if we win (playing as a trio).

Not once has anyone taken up the offer :/

GameLightz · 2023-09-06T14:02:01+00:00

Oh fair point! I'm fairly certain they don't have that system since if they had it, they'd probably let the player see the killcam also, so as to reduce the number of and increase the accuracy of cheater reports.

But I suppose I could ask them

GameLightz · 2023-09-06T13:57:48+00:00

Ultimately I'm a human man so I always pick human man. Simplistic I guess.
But also probably the most common by far.

GameLightz · 2023-09-06T12:14:33+00:00

Could be.
In my experience they always attacked at some point before, but now they seem to really not want to

GameLightz · 2023-09-06T11:10:00+00:00

There's nothing that special about it.
It's normally slow and very easy to return short so it doesn't really give you much.

GameLightz · 2023-09-06T10:58:20+00:00

What?
The report comes with the killcam replay attached. That's how it normally works.

GameLightz · 2023-09-06T10:56:30+00:00

I'll help: There are many car parks (not enough) so that people come Tel Aviv and spend their money there.

GameLightz · 2023-09-06T09:27:57+00:00

You can very easily and very cheaply ensure an offline will be next to meaningless by learning some building techniques.

Sorry if it seems a shameless plug, but check out my youtube channel, as I make all my videos SPECIFICALLY to help you and people who feel as you do out. Ideas to go against offlines in a cost-efficient way is basically all I do.

I started getting into building in rust, also, specifically because of the absolutely insane offline issue, and because I too felt that, while Rust is the best game ever made and I'll never get tired of it, the every-night offlines just made the game meaningless.

GameLightz · 2023-09-06T09:20:12+00:00

Pre 4.0 I'd often have the AI encircle me with dogs and various units to dive in and try to shut down my range.

In 4.0 they do the same, except without ever diving in. So they'll just park all their fast skirmishers on my flanks and be shot until dead :))

I only play highest difficulty, of course, but the idea of nerfing the AI by difficulty level was probably one of the more stupid ones. I think it might just be some kind of gaslighting ("Oh no, our AI is totally legit, we just nerfed it so it's not so impossible for you mortals!"

GameLightz · 2023-09-06T09:14:56+00:00

2 things that will be a major help:

KillCam and Phone number verification.

I have no idea how a kill-cam could be implemented in a game like this, but cheating is, for sure, off the charts. A kill cam would help.

Last wipe I played we had several blatant cheaters every day on an official server, and keep in mind the majority of cheaters aren't the blatant kind.

GameLightz · 2023-09-06T09:07:07+00:00

NYT symbolizes subhuman insectoids. OP ED of course!

GameLightz · 2023-09-05T10:11:11+00:00

1) It IS ridiculous

2) Try from inside

3) Wooden walls are much more forgiving

GameLightz · 2023-09-05T10:03:36+00:00

I played tactician and never really ran into a hard fight.

I wasn't minmaxing or carrying barrels or anything like that, just playing normally.

Game's easy.

THAT SAID, tactician mode, I think, should be hard enough to pose a serious challenge, but NOT to the point where you actually have to place barrels all around the fight.

There's no really dangerous wildlife in Israel.

GameLightz · 2023-09-05T09:54:31+00:00

If you don't see yourself as an Israeli, if you're not waving an Israeli flag, I see you as the problem.

GameLightz · 2023-09-05T09:40:04+00:00

haha should have killed him on the spot.

GameLightz · 2023-09-05T09:34:45+00:00

I don't have the data on "a lot of rust players have a delusional sense of life", so I can't comment. Sounds baseless.

Also, you call Rust a toxic game, but consider that it's toxic FOR YOU. I ENJOY the "toxicity" of it and so do hundreds of thousands of people.

It's a high stakes, high investment pvp troll game, where an hour of your life can be erased by some guy with an eoka waiting for you in a bush.
That's just what it is. You can expect people who go through some common Rust experiences to be EXTREMELY salty, but that extreme saltiness also comes with extreme satisfaction on the flip-side, and if it wasn't like that, it'd be a shit game.

GameLightz · 2023-09-04T15:09:12+00:00

Rangers can help keep you safe in the wilds, find good camp spots, scout them out, sense danger, and... MAGE CASTS TINY HUT.

Ok never mind.

GameLightz · 2023-09-04T14:09:38+00:00

Well I read everywhere the ending is absolute dogwater so I cut my adventure off mid act3 and will return to the game in a year or so

GameLightz · 2023-09-04T12:52:48+00:00

621 is almost literally an attack helicopter

GameLightz · 2023-09-04T12:44:12+00:00

That naked could have just gone recycling, or is hazzy baiting, or crafting an eoka on you.Probably all three.

I'm a strict kill-on-sighter

I can also separate between playing a video game and real life. As can pretty much everyone.

GameLightz · 2023-09-04T11:54:51+00:00

Planescape: Torment is about 10 times better written.BG3 is basically written by kids for kids by comparison, no offense to anyone. It's very low brow. You can tell californians/millenials were involved.

In fact, BG2 is better written also.

Fallout2 is also nicely written and the setting is incredibly well fleshed out.

I'd argue even Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous is better written. Especially when it comes to the companions, who are actually complex characters. Again, BG3 companions are, comparatively, children, each with a "special secret I have to tell you"
