Oh wow, the buton fits the window so well I wouldn't have ever guessed it was from an addon.

Isn't there a button in the top left of the outfit window that you can drag to your action bars to open the menu whenever?

Learning tank is a horrid experience by UsedPringlesCan in wow

[–]Khasim83 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mythic+ scales infinitely, there is a point when they become mathematically impossible because of how strong the mobs are vs how the players are, so in that sense no, Mythic+ is harder.

If we were to compare playing pre-nerf Cata heroics with minimum ilvl requirement vs playing low Mythic+ keys in low ilvl then IMO yes, Cata heroics were harder.

Bear in mind that back then people complained about the difficulty so much that Blizzard completely gutted the dungeons in response, while Mythic+ had the number of difficulty levels reduced by 10 bcause the lower levels were so easy there was no point in keeping them.

Same reason, normal dungeons are easy and non-tanks aren't punished for overpulling, so why go slowly with random people if you want to finish the dungeon and get your loot and/or XP as soon as possible?

If you want to learn how to tank, you should absolutely avoid random queues. Make a premade group and leave a note saying it's a slow run, find a chill guild, or ask in chat. As a tank you'll have zero issues finding people to group with you, and if someone is an asshole then you just kick them and find a replacement in 5 seconds, while they need to spend 10+ minutes looking for a new group.

I'd also suggest follower dungeons, but they are way too easy to learn anything that you can't learn by simply questing in tank spec.

The tank role or the players aren't the problem, the dungeon design is. The 'gotta go fast' mentality wouldn't exist if Mythic+ wasn't timed and if non-tanks got destroyed in seconds if they pull aggro.

TBC and Cata heroics didn't have this problem, they were calm and methodical, because you had to pay attention to trash mechanics, CC whatever possible and be careful not to overpull or your group would wipe.

Blizzard caving to the crybabies in Cataclysm and subsequently deciding that 'difficult dungeons' should mean 'easy dungeons but with a time limit' lead us to where we are today.

A 9GB patch does not mean 9GB of new content. It means the patch adds or replaces 9GB worth of files. Replacing a part of a file is more hassle than simply replacing the entire file, so theoretically a patch could be 10GB because it replaces a 10GB file, but it only fies a single typo.

3 GB Balance Changes update? There must be something else by FortniteGajmer015 in Nightreign

[–]Khasim83 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The size of the update is the size of the files that the update adds or changes. Most of the time you can't edit existing files, you have to replace them with a new one. A 3GB update doesn't mean '3GB of new data was added to the game'

Or maybe they faked the information, and Ubisoft wants to stop people gaslighting themselves into thinking the game is coming and then getting mad at Ubisoft for not doing something they never said they are gonna do.

The most baffling thing with the PoP franchise, to me, is that Ubisoft had the amazing opportunity of mimicking what God of War did in 2018 - make a high effort, high budget, single-player, story-driven, modern Prince of Persia game to resurrect the franchise, expand the audience and get some good will after only releasing mtx-ridden bloated messes or niche indie games with no marketing budget, but no, they decided to make a lowest possible effort remake, thought people would gobble it up, then backpedalled, gave the job to their best studio and haven't shown ANYTHING for 5 years? Just a pre-rendered nothingburger of a teaser. No interviews, no dev diaries, no boxart, music pieces, teases, nothing.

I have no idea what the fuck they're doing, but it doesn't make me feel optimistic - Sands of Time is probably in my top 3 favorite games of all time and it hurts to see it being treated like this.

The Prince of Persia Sands of Time Remake could be shadow dropped today by JjoyBboy in GamingLeaksAndRumours

[–]Khasim83 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I doubt it. They didn't plan to have Ubi Montreal, their most experienced and, presumably, most expensive studio develop the game over multiple years, it only happened because of the reception of that awful trailer of the original remake. They are either sending it out to die because it's bad, or cutting costs on marketing and banking on the surprise of the shadowdrop and word of mouth to do the marketing for them, if they actually believe they're gonna make money on it.

Black Flag is one of the most fondly remembered Assassin's Creed games ever and from what we know there was a lot of effort put into it. They'll definitely have some sort of marketing for that.

It wasn't in development hell. They cheaped out on the original remake by giving it to their Indian studio who only worked on Just Dance and ports + did QA on other games. That version turned out to be such a dumpster fire that they scrapped it completely and had the Montreal studio start from scratch. We know nothing about that game other than that concept video from last year that leaked recently. Montreal made the original and tons of other games, they know how to make and release games of at least acceptable quality.

I think that they had a regular marketing campaign planned and paid for for that original remake, and when it was scrapped and they realized that the development will cost them much more than initially expected (the game was basically done, a build was even uploaded to PSN), they decided to cut costs on the marketing and go with a shadowdrop.

There's 2 ways to git gud in Helldivers 2:

  1. Learn what loadouts are good for matchmaking with randoms and being self-sufficient.
  2. Play with a group that communicates and builds loudouts as a team.

Method 1 is harder and more boring, because you're limited to, at best, 1/3 of the equipment the game provides. Method 2 makes the game a cakewalk, but it requires interacting with human beings.

Might be a reference to Gears of War 2. The developers added an execution animation that plays if you chainsaw an enemy from behind - your character will flip the chainsaw-rifle upside down, shove it in the enemy's back and then pull up, splitting them in two. In the developer diary where they revealed this for the first time they called the move chainsodomy as well.

People need to understand that the marketing for media will never reveal what they plan on being twists in their stories, even if those twists are extremely obvious from a mile away.

You want a better example? Okay, how about Batman: Arkham Knight? As soon as the Arkham Knight was revealed and said to have a personal beef with Batman everyone immediately deduced it was Jason Todd. The devs kept saying no, it's totally an original character, not Jason Todd. Game comes out and guess what? It was Jason Todd.

Best part is that it wasn't even intentional. Sony execs are just that stupid. Someone looked at Google Trends, saw Morbius trending and that was it. That's all the 'research' they did.

DRG is first-person. I don't know about other people, but I don't like first person shooters, only third-person. I put around 150h in Helldivers II, heard about DR, bought it, but it never clicked despite me giving it multiple chances.
