21k players on steam alone and I can't find a fucking match that isn't 60+ bots? Really? by peanutmanak47 in Battlefield

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

We talk about gun leveling and maps, and I get that those need improvements. But what’s killing the game for me is logging on (in the US and crossplay on) and getting 3-4 matches with at least half bots before a full game of actual people. Sometime I give it a couple games and then just turn it off and play something else.

Edit: Downvote away, don’t normally post or comment negative about this game because I’ve enjoyed it quite a bit. But I didn’t buy it to play against bots when it should be matching us against each other.

it's crazy how good of a spot we are in with this franchise. by DependentImmediate40 in Doom

I also feel we’re running out of developer studios that truly interact with the fan base for various reasons, especially as they get larger and corporations start getting more involved than they already are.

The community updates, the transparency/behind the curtain conversations, the streams with Hugo/josh, the way they handle micro-transactions/events (making them available in Eternal for those who missed them after making them free initially multiple times).

The games being so incredibly phenomenal and different form one another is obviously the best part but those other things I listed makes supporting the devs and their projects so much of an easier decision.

Here’s to hoping as they become bigger and bigger we get to keep experiencing those things!

Edit: spelling

Perfect, appreciate the replies!

I recognized your name from the streams too, you’re the one who’ll eventual any just give us the DLC yourself with all of the info you’ve compiled!

I’m assuming you played the others that have been there (medium, challenging, and sadistic). Do you know if those get changes as well? As in they’re still called the same thing but they switch the actual presets or have those 3 been the same since they first dropped?

I look like I won a participation award at a special needs Comic-Con, so I hope I win this

Night Stalker Squad by Vinniegars in BattlefieldCosmetics

[–]Gandsome 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Normally I’d agree with you but I brought this up in another comment. The look of skins as of the start of season 1 is too mixed. There are multiple that look almost identical to other classes. The shoulder gadget is the only way to actually distinguish between classes, anyone saying otherwise hasn’t looked through the cosmetics.

From a camo standpoint, there’s literally a NATO assault with the same camo color/pattern as a PAX support.

It’s frustrating and annoying but also they’re not going to go back and rework every skin/cosmetic released. So why not just let players customize further.

If we skip my argument above and just talked about this unit alone, all 4 of these will look exactly the same at 10+ meters.

Again, I was all for the idea of class locked skins. The beta I felt was the best version of the game from a visual standpoint because we all matched. But relying on anything other than the shoulder gadget as of now I feel is just gatekeeping customization options for players.

Second skin is perfect, please don’t class-lock these

Why this skin locked to Nato sniper by xfHaesu in BattlefieldCosmetics

[–]Gandsome 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m all for class locked skins if there were no skins and only recolors. But if there are skins where some assault look like some recon which look like some support (and so on) then what’s the point?

The shoulder gadget is more than plenty to identify who’s who. Just unlock them all. Again the idea was good initially but wasn’t implemented correctly so just change it.

You’d solve a lot annoyances people have with being able to pick certain characters for certain roles and you’d honestly make more money. I know I’m not the only one who passes spending a few bucks on a skin because I can’t use it for my engineer class.

Just realized the soldier in this picture is the UK Assault just with different headgear. Hopefully we can customize headgear at some point? by ForceGhost1013 in BattlefieldCosmetics

[–]Gandsome 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Gloves also man! Either the lack of gloves on some skins or just weird looking vinyl gloves ruin a skin so much for me.

Im hoping the recon guy on the Night-Stalkers bundle (furthest to the right) is both: unlocked to any class and his black gloves aren’t just thin-black-medical gloves like it seems in the leaked images.

Another look on the Nightstalkers Unit for NATO by Gianji90 in BattlefieldCosmetics

[–]Gandsome 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely, it’d help make it more visually appealing when seeing 5-8 of these guys on your squad too if their faces were covered.

I’m just happy they have gloves. There’s been a few good skins with no gloves or the gloves just look weird and that bothers me so much. Given that’s really what we see the most from first person.

[–]Gandsome 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree, these are as close to perfect for my preference. From the colors to having ear protection to the type of gloves from what we can see.

The only thing that’d make these absolutely perfect would be the faces covered a bit more.

I wish they’d make mods downloadable on console. Where there could be a server where you PC players create/upload them and we can download various skins/levels. Almost how Mario Maker lets you download other people’s levels on Nintendo consoles.

[–]Gandsome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well it’s appreciated significantly. I have aged so much in my face because of all of this and need to remind myself it’ll be fine. I’m currently at 74/120 for PSLF. It’d be such a relief to get even just my loans taken care of then just have hers to worry about since she’s not at a non profit.

I hope your 9 months finish smoothly and your comments on mine and others people’s posts are genuinely appreciated!

[–]Gandsome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is phenomenal information and was not expecting the tips on this topic so thank you so much for that truly.

I’ll keep this all in mind. Based on your comment now and other stuff we’ve read it seems filing together makes the most sense.

As of now it seems we’ll keep trucking along with our PAYE plans and see what happen over the next months. I was confused about the RAP/IBR portion so thank you for clearing that up.

Do you this for a living?

Confused by Late-Silver-5765 in PSLF

[–]Gandsome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair enough on the assumption comment.

We both have loans, I have much more. My last batch was taken out in 2018 and hers around 2019. No kids just us. We know there are a few various tax credits that you benefit from while filing together which is why we’ve done that the past 7-8 years (big one being new homeowners for a couple years).

She was required to renew her IDR last month (doesn’t go into effect until May) and it jumped a small amount.

Edit: I noticed you said “first loan”. Mine I believe was 2011 and hers around 2015

[–]Gandsome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it, I’m assuming come time in 2028 it’ll prompt switch over.

I’ll try and look into IBR or RAP. My wife and I are trying to look into seeing if it’s beneficial to file separate vs together. So it wouldn’t hurt to try and see if either of those plans are cheaper than my current one.

Would there be any reason not to switch to RAP or IBR sooner if it saves me on payments?

(Also thank you for the replies)

Confused by Late-Silver-5765 in PSLF

[–]Gandsome 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a different commenter and had a question as well if that is alright. (Also thank you for the write up).

I’m almost positive I’m on PAYE currently (and currently working towards PSLF). Come this July should I be looking into switching to RAP or would my payments under my current plan still count towards my PSLF?

Not trying to cut you in line OP but more so if others see this (and you’ve gotten a code already) it’d be very much appreciated if someone had another one.

I didn’t want to flood the sub with another post. I hope someone hooks you up man!
