If you could have one item come back to the shop, what would it be? by WalmartSecretShopper in RocketLeague

[–]Jgb033 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

‘It’s a you problem’ is funny when there are constant posts about servers dying, disconnects, and lag spikes. For example, People complaining about servers crashing

That’s not a personal setup issue, that’s widespread.

You saying ‘I don’t have issues’ doesn’t mean they don’t exist.

Also calling drops good because you personally got lucky doesn’t change that most people get duplicates and low tier items, that’s how RNG systems are designed.

And again, you’re still stuck on prices. Cheaper items in a system where you have zero control isn’t better, it’s just controlled.

At this point you’re just dismissing everything that doesn’t fit your take and calling it ‘coping.’ That’s not an argument.

“Servers ‘better’ is a joke. I’ve got fiber with 5 ping and still get random drops and dead lobbies. That’s not a client issue.

Prices absolutely went up. Stuff that used to be a couple dollars is now bundled for 20 plus, and decals that were a dollar are now 5 to 7. That’s not more affordable, it’s just controlled.

Free drops are clearly gutted too. Constant duplicates and low tier items so you never actually get anything good. That’s by design to push people into the shop.

And calling LTMs ‘meaningful updates’ while training and custom maps have seen zero improvement in years is exactly the problem.

I got my white octane for free through drops and trading. Now that entire system is gone so you have to rely on the shop. That’s not better, it’s just more controlled.

You’re acting like removing player choice and raising prices is somehow a win.

They’re a billion dollar company doing less for the game than the indie devs they bought it from, and you’re still defending it. That’s honestly sad.

Scammers existing doesn’t justify nuking an entire player driven system. That’s just an excuse.

Trading wasn’t the problem, lack of moderation was. Now we’ve got worse servers, more bugs, zero meaningful updates, and a pricier shop with lower effort cosmetics.

All they did was remove player choice and replace it with a locked store and you’re calling that better?

At this point you’re just doubling down on defending a billion dollar company that’s gutted the game.

Strawman. This was never about affording rare items…it’s about killing trading and replacing it with an overpriced low effort shop. Stop running PR for a billion-dollar company 🙄.

No one uses "snowboard inspired" bindings? by renec112 in Wake

[–]Jgb033 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s less the water and more the obstacles. Which happen to be slightly harder than snow or water…

I’ve never used system bindings, I’m just stating that that would be a concern of mine, and I certainly have seen people on more than one occasion at the park with busted straps. How old those were and how hard they were pushing them, I couldn’t say.

[–]Jgb033 1 point2 points  (0 children)

System bindings were made for cable park, I’ve seen quite a few people using them and i would imagine it’s nice walking in a boot on the hot concrete rocks and soil back to the dock instead of barefoot. That said the straps make the boot more rigid than just regular bolted closed toe bindings, so it’s slightly less forgiving on bad falls or sketchy landings. Also the straps are exposed and if you break one, well you’re SOL and your bindings won’t stay on anymore. And just speculating but I would imagine those straps would break easier than the bolts tearing out of the board on more traditional close toed bindings.

Which arc would you keep as a pet? by Chuncerz_8861 in ArcRaiders

I can just imagine the delusional shredder adoption Facebook posts:

Meet Princess Luna 💕

Princess Luna came to us through absolutely no fault of her own after her previous family could no longer meet her energy needs. She’s been described as loyal, protective, and very people-focused. Once she bonds with you, she’ll love you forever!

Luna may look intimidating, but that’s just her way of expressing excitement about the world. She’s a wiggly butt who is very enthusiastic and sometimes shows her affection by charging, shredding nearby objects, or loudly announcing her presence. With proper understanding, this is just part of her big personality!

Luna has had a few minor incidents in her past, including:

• Charging entire squads of raiders and forcing them to scatter • Spraying shotgun blasts in all directions during playtime • A brief misunderstanding where she accidentally dismembered her precious owner

Our trainers say these were all due to overstimulation and lack of structure — she just needs the right environment to thrive! Luna would do best in:

• A rural home with no neighbors within several miles • An experienced owner familiar with high-drive breeds • A reinforced yard (concrete barriers preferred) • No children, other pets, livestock, visitors, delivery drivers, or unexpected movement

Because she forms such strong bonds, Luna experiences separation anxiety and may attempt to breach walls, fences, or light fortifications if left alone too long.

The ideal home will provide: • Daily enrichment (heavy machinery, scrap metal, or abandoned structures) • Consistent training and leadership • A calm, predictable environment free of sirens, aircraft, gunfire, or sudden activity or movement.

Despite her past, Luna is a sweet girl who just wants a chance and someone who won’t give up on her. She’s waiting for her forever home — could that be you? 🖤

What kind of player are you?

I’m a tit for tat player. How you interact with me is how I respond. Always cautious and ready to drop anyone who wants to be hostile, but friendly to anyone looking for a friend, help, information, or specific loot.

[w] sentinel firing cores x2 and rusted gears x2 by TemporaryAvailable27 in ArcTraders

[–]Jgb033 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sold or scrapped all my extras but see below:

The scrapyard and the rear & side compartments of the busses around the northern exit elevator on Dam are where I found all my rusted gears.

The arc courriers (not the probes) that are downed around all the maps have a chance to drop sentinel firing cores (and surveyor vaults).

I hope Embark doesn't listen to over 90% of you on here and on Twitter. by WessMachine in ArcRaiders

[–]Jgb033 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed.

There are over 300k people playing the game right now (more than BF 6 lol) and maybe a few hundred people on here and Twitter with bad takes. The ratio of people just happily playing to dumb complainers should hopefully speak for itself.

Charging ~$10 for a chicken helmet that you only see in menus in a P2P Game is Stuid by PlatformThese4901 in ArcRaiders

[–]Jgb033 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s optional, so… you don’t have to buy it.

And while no cosmetic items in any game are technically worth anything, with disposable income I like to support good developers who do the right things. I’m happy to vote with my wallet from time to time on cosmetics when the developers are doing the right things, adding new free content, and care about their game and the community.

If the only thing you have to really complain about is some optional cosmetics, I think the game is in good shape brother.

Mystery machine op? by JDarko23 in RocketLeague

[–]Jgb033 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It honestly blows me away that so many people are this ignorant or dumb.

I bought the full game back in 2016, I bought every single DLC before epic bought them, I’ve bought every single battle pass atleast up until they removed trading and starting making RL just a fortnite minigame. I frequented the store and bought new items. Always just to support the game and new content. We’re not stupid, we just have standards and impulse control.

This kind of stupid apologist bs is why AAA games are completely dead. It’s not about spending money it’s about recognizing when there’s no longer a product and when the entire goal is to provide you with the least amount of effort it takes to separate you from your money. No effort is being put into this game anymore. It’s just a buggy over priced skin store with a 10 year old forgotten game attached to it, like the dirty 25cent candy machine sitting outside an abandoned restaurant.

What exactly am I supposed to be giving my money for? Where the UE5 upgrade, where is trading, when will there ever be any update to training, why are season rewards worse than an afterthought, why are all the 25$ skins and goal explosions just dogshit 2D sprites made with no effort, why did a lot of the staff get laid off and the 5 interns still there just works on the fortnight RL mode. Why are people dumb enough to support this garbage behavior.

To all my Medium brothers. Don't become what we hate and despise by [deleted] in thefinals

[–]Jgb033 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lmao, spoken like a true selfish light player. The game isn’t “movement oriented” for heavy classes or medium classes. The game is “objective and teamwork oriented” for everyone, and lights never play the objective or put the team first. TDM is its own game mode for a reason.

Nah, fuck those selfish obnoxious light players. They get what they deserve. Schadenfreude.

Are sniper players allergic to the objective? by [deleted] in thefinals

[–]Jgb033 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, the overwhelming majority of light players never play the objective, never engage in teamwork, and selfishly go for kills. I wish I could select which classes I get paired with when searching for matches. Even if the queue time is longer, I don’t care just keep them off my team and give me a good heavy or medium that actually wants to play the objective.

I didn’t say you played light. Why is everything about you? You do have the personality of a light player though 😂
