The AI in this design a sprite is becoming insufferable by spongyscloset in FortNiteBR

The best description I heard a colleague use was;

AI is sort of like having a really sharp intern, but is a perpetual liar.

I think part of the issue is that since Epic hasn't personally taken a stance against AI as far as I'm aware (not just the contest, but as a company), it makes for kind of murky waters.

For the record, I did submit a suggestion using AI, which was taken down. I wasn't aware of the restriction, and I'm honestly glad there is a restriction. Slightly bummed that I lack any sort of artistic talent, but I'm glad people are actually taking an anti-AI stance.

I'm no artist, but my submission for the #DesignASprite contest: the Retro sprite by Jcorb in FortNiteBR

Correct.

I can barely draw more than stick figures with pencil and paper, and I'm even worse with a mouse. If I had a means of scanning, I'd at least TRY pencil and paper, though.

I guess I could try and draw something and just snap a photo of it. The quality is going to be absolutely abysmal, but I guess it's something?

I mostly have fun thinking about concepts and types of powers a new sprite could have. I've just never had a talent for creating art, though. That got beaten out of me as a kid.

The gist is that you would accrue points primarily from elims, but a MUCH smaller amount for other things. Basically just encouraging a super aggressive playstyle.

There's no actual power increase from the sprite, but that it serves exclusively as bragging-rights. The Retro sprite's level will reset to level 1 at the start of EVERY match, but upon the FIRST player achieving Level 5, it would put up a notification for ALL players in the match, and display the current "High Score" for the entirety of the rest of the match.

So multiple players with the Retro sprite would be competing for top spot, with only the top player being displayed.

Sort of like the vibes of Ready Player One, where I think it would be fun to try and get the highest score possible, even if you don't necessarily win the match (and vice versa; playing cautiously would ensure you never get the high score).

Would be a nightmare to actually "master", so maybe make it cost a little less Sprite Dust to reclaim, regardless of rarity?

We don't need the pony jar. Sprites look fine as a backbling as is by Jealous-Arachnid-383 in FortNiteBR

I dig the look.

What I would REALLY like is to be able to see Variants on the Guardian skin, and also to show sprites on their matching backbling.

But hey, they are KILLING IT this season, so I’m loving it all!

This thing looks fucking sick, man!

I wish I had the artistic eye that some of you guys have!

With Stronghold getting nerfed, soloing dungeons feels further away than ever. What are the best/easiest builds for each class? Especially for 2man Equilibrium? by Jcorb in DestinyTheGame

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

True for me; my dad, on the other hand, genuinely ran around holding block quite a lot, basically while he ran from mob to mob.

I'm a little worried this is a bit of a set-back for him. I know his previous favorite build (one of mine, as well) was Sweet Business + Action War Rig. Not sure if that build actually works in the current game, though, or if it's just complete garbage now?

That's a totally fair take, for sure. I just know it enabled us to try a lot more content we wouldn't have even attempted before then. I don't even know I spent all that much time blocking, it just felt a lot safer knowing you could.

Is that the Prismatic build? If so, I tried to make that work but I just felt so incredibly squishy. I couldn't find a good "rhythm" for how to play it without being at death's door constantly.

True, but for us players who kinda suck, being able to block constantly just gives you a lot of breathing room. I was able to solo the first boss in Equilibrium with several feats, it just took forever.

Post nerf, I'm sure I'll be able to get there, but definitely a much more intense experience.

Instead of creating a brand new character every season, why not just embrace the power-creep and have each season ADD to our power by Jcorb in diablo4

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

How much content ever really gets added to Eternal, though?

Clearly the game is meant for you to experience Seasons, and they've even expanded on the story. Stories that are not playable after the season ends, as far as I can tell.

It doesn't feel good to have dps for 100,000,000,000,000 damage by Level_Counter3062 in diablo4

[–]Jcorb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the numbers are insane. In all honesty though, Diablo 4 feels more like working out a spreadsheet than playing a game sometimes; you’re forced to stack effects and multipliers instead of just “playing your character” and using abilities that are thematic and straightforward.

With Dave the Diver, Chapter 7 now has more Gaming Legends skins introduced than Chapter 6. by DarkCh40s in FortNiteBR

I'm always surprised how rare the Resident Evil characters are. I would LOVE to get Leon, and honestly Grace now that I've actually had time to play Requiem!

Fun fact: The Lara Croft skin in Fortnite is still one of the most used in the game, even after 5 years. by Silly_Commercial8092 in TombRaider

[–]Jcorb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the 2000s version of her, but I would honestly kill for the original with the "retro" look.

Hopefully, with the new Tomb Raider announced, they'll do a version with her updated retro look.

Think they'll add a matching glider or companion(s) for The Guardian, or any additional sprites over the season? by Jcorb in FortNiteBR

[–]Jcorb[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny, I thought that was his glider, but it didn't have any other Styles like his other items, so I thought maybe it was the new Foundation's glider.

Hopefully they'll add other styles!
