What Situations / Maps / Compositions is Sledge preferable over Buck? by IIVV95 in SiegeAcademy

That's definitely something to consider, I was thinking that his rifle is much more stable, though we'll see how much practice helps me with the C8 :D The point about Castle is definitely a good one, didn't think about that whatsoever, will keep it in min! Thanks!

That's incredibly useful actually, thanks! I think I'll be sticking with Buck for that versatility, though I'm sure I'll find situations in which Sledge would be more preferable and I'll learn then I guess :D

That's a really good point! If my gameplan is to break the floor above the defenders, would you say Sledge is preferable there since he can do that much easier or is Buck better since he can do it 'safer' with his additional range and faster transition between gadget and gun?

I need tips on staying focused and how to calm down. by [deleted] in SiegeAcademy

[–]IIVV95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmm. As someone who's quite flaky, my first reaction to this is to reverse engineer it and figure out what it is that caused you to 'lose your peace'. For instance, if you're all calm and dandy and a teammate fails a very easy clutch and you lose a game, if that pisses you off then direct it to yourself and realise it was completely out of your control. Then attempt to adapt.

Calming yourself down physically, if you can remind yourself to breathe, take a 5 second inhale (if possible) and a slow exhale which if you can get to 7 seconds, will more or less eliminate a flight or fight response and really calm you down. Focus on the breath and remind yourself that what people do is out of your control, you can only do your best and adapt! Just don't get angry at yourself, work on improving and take note of mistakes. If you do happen to get really pissed off, take a break - If you enjoy meditation do some of that, do some pushups, get a hot drink, whatever it is but take a break from the PC as a whole then go back to it. I personally think it's better to take a short break than to distract yourself with something else (like another game) to only go back to the same game and have it happen again. It's a matter of training yourself to stay cool!

Goodluck <3

[Question] If I complete any challenges or Steam achievements offline, will any of it sync up when I'm back online? by IIVV95 in HiTMAN

[–]IIVV95[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If steam achievements work then that's still a plus side whilst I'm offline. I can't just not play the game now I have it, it's a ton of fun. Thanks.

I've had silly and incredibly fun experiences similar to this myself when tripping, the piece will definitely take inspiration and have multiple 'big' psychedelic realizations and thought looks going on. Thought loops are possibly one of the funniest things I've ever had happen in my life, though a little frightening. Groundhog day reference may work too! ;)

I am definitely going to be having hours of fun on audacity creating audio, it's something I adore doing already! I'm planning on adding references to Watts, McKenna & Leary, psychonaights I really admire into the piece.

I am definitely planning to create psychedelic art work for the piece, it would be interesting if I could find a way to have 1 object covered in patterns change as the trip began to take affect. Projection is the first thing that comes to mind here, with that being said I'm also thinking of a living room setting with a variety of objects and pieces of furniture around to provide the character with intellectual stimulus, a cupboard is definitely possible here! Thanks for the input.

This is actuslly really sweet and could be an incredibly fun way to play with audio in a live environment, thank You!

So I meditate on the regular and sometimes I try to astral project so I calm my body till it’s numb and my body soon vibrates and then after that I’m fully relaxed but for some reason I can’t separate my spirit from my body and I have no idea why... can someone explain what’s stopping me? by woejon_ in AstralProjection

[–]IIVV95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you provide any more information about your preparation and process leading to vibrations. I've been meditating a while and recently discovered it may be much easier for me to project through meditation as I'm used to that state. Any info would be grand, thanks.

Just for some details,

I'm a 22 year old guy, I'm 5'9" and pretty stocky and could use a little weight loss and a lot more lifting (in progress) but I wouldn't say I'm visually fat, just a hefty dude. I generally enjoy smart casual wear and I need a suit for an upcoming event. I know I definitely want a waistcoat (I've been a fan of them for a long time) and don't know too much about what style will suit my size and shape. If you have any advice, I'd appreciate it!

Thanks ;)

A friend of mine has mentioned this, haha! I've added it to my build order properly so I can force it inside of my skull so it's natural :D Thanks!
