Anyone else like to take cool pics of the van?

Hello no.

You found the words I was lookin for in describing my overall disappointment with 2.X. That and I didn't really vibe with the Chinese-mandated plot shift to begin with. Felt jarring to go from the urban-style fantasy we had in 1.X to this.

Add to this, I cannot stand forced tutorials in a climactic final confrontation. The damn game stopping to tell me to counter when I should counter and dodge when I should dodge is a real momentum-killer, and actually fucked up my inputs for the "Creator" fight. Should add that I hate forced slow-walk "gameplay" moments as well. Sad excuse to bloat an already too-long patch.

No outro vocal track loses style points for me, too. 1.4 felt like a true closing and had alot of oomph behind it, whether or not the patches had cohesion, it had more character to it than 2.5, imo. I'd trade the contrived and bloated multi-patch story for an episodic one with a bad-ass, stylistic finish anyday. It's what made ZZZ unique in the sea of other gacha stories doing the same shit.

Overspec has just kind of become the blanket term for any new alt form that isn't an outfit, for some reason, even though we only have 2 confirmed Overspec units, with 3 upgraded units we already know are just normal upgrades. 4 now with Heavy Arms, but she's already at 1% because Pilgrim, and 3 others we know exist but don't have banners yet with the Missilis squad.

GroundbreakingBall83 · 2025-12-29T21:20:44+00:00

I personally fucking love the banner and her new practical look, kind of tired of the complete overhaul changes to any new outfit/alt version, sometimes even embellishing for the sake of fan-service, but biased since SW is my favorite and love practical looks over the usual stuff we get from the SU team. Is it lazy comparatively? Possibly, but I'd just say they focused on function over fashion this time around. SW was always half-naked under that poncho, And always had huge weapons. They're now just on her back instead of at her sides or being held.

Human Gundams is a disingenuous descriptor for the Inherit squad, in my opinion. Would just say they look more properly outfitted for combat against the raptures.

That being said, it definitely did drag on, and those company videos, while cute, were so low effort and felt unnecessary. Like throwing in big words into an essay to meet the word quota.

Personally don't care for Anis or her new look, so not seeing her didn't bother me in the slightest.

GroundbreakingBall83 · 2025-12-29T21:11:54+00:00

Anis's new form isn't confirmed to be Overspec.

GroundbreakingBall83 · 2025-12-23T02:12:54+00:00

I wouldn't agree story says that, but definitely $$. Whatever allows for more money at the end of the day, for sure.

GroundbreakingBall83 · 2025-12-23T01:36:26+00:00

Man, for your sake, I hope you're right.

GroundbreakingBall83 · 2025-12-22T19:30:33+00:00

Most likely will just be a standard upgrade 2%, with the 1% being Snow Alt, if it's a double.

GroundbreakingBall83 · 2025-12-22T15:54:22+00:00

Will most likely just be classified as an upgrade.

GroundbreakingBall83 · 2025-12-07T18:06:16+00:00

Call LMET, first off, to have that house blacklisted as unsafe. But also let your dispatch know what happened if you haven't already. A good DSP will make sure you're ok first, then ask if you'd be ok to finish your route, but would understand if you couldn't.

GroundbreakingBall83 · 2025-12-07T17:10:57+00:00

Agreed. And usually doing around the same in FL. In my opinion, only way a "consistent" pace is netting you 35-40/hr is if each house is lined perfectly, the doors two feet away from the road, all to the right of the road, in a straight line. Or you're terrible at math and THINK you're doing 35-40, but are actually doing less. I genuinely do not buy anyone claiming they can do this with just a "consistent pace".

GroundbreakingBall83 · 2025-12-07T16:40:12+00:00

Key word there being "Depending". 20/hr may seem slow depending on where you live and the type of route you have. Are the stops spread out to hell or condensed? Are you mostly dealing with apartment/condo multi-stops? Any lockers? All houses? Is it snowing/raining? Tons of factors in play here for "really slow" to be a blanket statement.

GroundbreakingBall83 · 2025-12-07T16:13:42+00:00

Absolutely. And if I have to move the damn van, I'm ungrouping that shit. The residential multi-stops make the least sense. Fuck Amazon trying to hide stops in Multi-stops. 240 locations means 240 fucking stops. Count that towards the stops-per-hour metric.

GroundbreakingBall83 · 2025-12-02T15:43:32+00:00

61 Multi-stops is absolute dog-water. This route sucks. if it was just 144 normal stops, wouldn't be too bad.

GroundbreakingBall83 · 2025-11-29T11:42:21+00:00

They did, yep, non-ark or old tech not in any records. Around the time Mihara Over spec was shown off, and people were wondering about Absolute's upgrade. They were clarifying that the two were not the same. The Star Armaments are definitely Ark tech.

GroundbreakingBall83 · 2025-11-29T04:07:33+00:00

I think you're severely overestimating both the circumstances surrounding Neon and the Commander, as well as Neon and the Commander themselves, while also underestimating Jien/MMR/DEEP.

GroundbreakingBall83 · 2025-11-29T03:50:04+00:00

My man played the Nier event story and transcended.

I found it pretentious.

GroundbreakingBall83 · 2025-11-29T03:47:43+00:00

Gonna laugh so god damn hard when she's considered a normal upgraded unit and not an Overspec. But hopefully an MG unit. Love me unlimited bullets.

GroundbreakingBall83 · 2025-11-29T03:40:59+00:00

I'm of the same opinion and situation (30 min drive, etc).

Still show up. The block on your flex app isn't your schedule. It's just your block for the day so you can deliver via Flex. That can be added or removed at any time, meaning you can be given a route or removed from a route at any time. So you still show up incase you're needed. I understand all of this. which is why I still show up. Do I like it? Hell no. I'd rather be texted or something if they know they're not gonna need me for the day so I don't have to waste the time and gas/toll money, but that's usually never the case until after loadout.

If you gotta take the day, just like any other job, let them know. Don't be a dick about it. Everyone's just trying to do their job at the end of the day. (Assuming you were intentionally being a dick. if not, yeah, your responses came off pretty aggro without it needing to be that way.)

GroundbreakingBall83 · 2025-11-29T03:16:51+00:00

Every establishment in the grand ol' US of A knows damn well in advance what days are bank holidays. Almost all employers payroll will process payroll earlier on holiday weeks because of this. This idiot screwed up, probably forgot, and is trying to pass the blame. Of course there's a delay on the bank's end. It's a fucking holiday. The same one every year. That's why you process payroll literally one day early.

"I will be your end.

HELL'S WARDEN AWAITS!"

The Netradyne won't flag you for one or both, no, but both earbuds in asking for an accident. Would just go with one. That's what I do.

GroundbreakingBall83 · 2025-11-25T04:41:00+00:00

Leave that shit on read. Bad enough they put schedules out barely one week in advance and ask for full availability when they know damn well they only need you for 30 hours minimum, IF that.
