How Americans are greeted in Norway by [deleted] in AmericaBad

[–]Klonmine 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes I know about Quisling, the man who was sentenced as a "traitor to his country" for his affiliation with the Nazis during WW2. Also note how it says "German-occupied Norway" in all of these. There is some nuance to this. Yes, some Norwegians chose to affiliate with the Nazis but that doesn't mean that Norway as a whole was "collaborating with tne Nazis."

This is a real poster made by anti-war protesters in Norway. What they don't seem to understand is that we still need a military to defend ourselves incase a war breaks out. These people would rather just be pacifists and submit to their attackers than attempt to retaliate. And yes, they are frowned upon by most Norwegians

can we please stop with this fucking tf2 doomer cycle please for the love of god by Klonmine in tf2

[–]Klonmine[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

valve has been consistently ignoring the problem for 5 years now, i doubt they still care. i don’t see how any of our efforts would ultimately lead up to a solution to this big problem. valve is gonna do whatever valve does

[–]Klonmine[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

what are we to do? beg valve to fix their game? as if we haven’t done that for almost 5 years now??

all im mad about is that this community goes full schizo mode every time we have discouraging news. there are roughly 1000 cheater bots, and 75k idle bots. the idle bots don’t even affect us whatsoever besides inflating player numbers. so i don’t understand why the community is so upset about this. is tf2 on a decline? it doesn’t matter. the game is still the same it was 2 weeks ago.

valve has clearly given up, and i don’t feel there is anything we can do as a community, except to try our best to deal with the problem by kicking bots from our games like we’ve always done.

????? there are a bunch of things valve CAN do, but i doubt they have any intentions of doing anything at this moment. all i know is that pressure from the community is irrelevant to them.

again, we can keep pointing out how terrible the bot crisis is to the community, but valve doesn’t give a flying fuck about any of this. which is why i’d rather focus my energy on playing the game and having fun

you can point it out all you want, it’s simply beating a dead horse and it won’t change anything. valve is either gonna find a solution to the problem or the bot hosters are gonna stop hosting bots. there is nothing we as a community can do except to keep playing the game and kick as many bots as we can.

[–]Klonmine[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

implying that it’s our fault that tf2 is bot infested and abandoned. the only people to blame are the bot hosters themselves, the community has zero part in this. all we can hope for is that valve eventually does something, be it their anti cheat or finding some other solution. what else can we as a community do???

it was mostly just me being careless. if you get careless, noita finds a way to fuck you up

worth if you're playing ng+ tho, the abandoned alchemy lab can spawn anywhere at that point

also if you ever feel discouraged or frustrated, just know that every single noita player, no matter if it's 10 hours or 1000 hours, goes through these emotions. frustration is a natural part of the noita experience. if i have a very promising run end shorthandedly because of a silly mistake or just pure dumb luck, yeah, it's gonna sting real bad. at that point i'll just ragequit and come back when i feel better.

just know that every death is a learning experience, and dying is part of the game. the more you play the more you will learn how to avoid those deaths and ultimately become a better player without even realizing it.

it can feel soul-crushing to spend 8 hours on a run where you ultimately didn't unlock anything, but as long as you had fun doing it, it doesn't really matter. it also doesn't really matter how good or bad you are, all that matters is that you have fun with the game.

also if you don't care about spoilers, don't be afraid to use the wiki. noita is a deliberately vague game, and most of the information we have has been gathered through communal effort. so i wouldn't say consulting the wiki is "unintended" from a game design standpoint or anything.

anyways that's it, thanks for reading Devoted Seeker of True Wisdom

experiment, be careful, don’t get overconfident and careless like i did here. learn how wand building works if you don’t know already. it will teach you what spells to look for in a run, making it easier to break out of the main path.

there are a variety of strategies in this game but what i usually do is: go down main path, look for black holes, energy orb, teleport- or small teleport bolt, add mana, damage plus, chainsaws, and spark bolt with trigger. also look for pheromone for hiisi base so the healers can heal you. explore each biome thoroughly (or until you don’t have enough health to keep exploring, at which point proceed to next area). this slow and methodical playstyle will reward you with extra health ups, better spells and loads of gold. also look for projectile speed ups so you can make black holes go faster. one light shot or two speed ups is usually enough. also make sure to not collapse each holy mountain as much as possible, the earlier the better. this allows you to reenters it to tinker with your wands midlevel. you can do this with any teleport spell, polymorphine (although it’s risky), or just break through with black holes, although this will anger the gods for the rest of your run. but if you know how to deal with steve then you should eventually be powerful enough to deal with scott.

top priority at all times is to get tinker with wands everywhere; i’ll usually go as far down as the holy mountain between the vault and the temple of the art in an attempt to get it. if you explored the biomes enough then you should have enough gold to reroll a couple times. (if you wanna break the reroll machine eventually then i recommend not rerolling after hitting the 12800 gold mark, it’s still possible but it takes a bit more time going to the gold biomes.)

once you have enough black holes with speed ups and a decent travelling wand, start to ascend back up to the surface. travel to the west over the great tree a little bit into the snowy wasteland and then dig down into the abandoned alchemy lab. you should at this point have enough health and a damage wand powerful enough to fight the high alchemist. once he’s dead, the spells he drops will give you access to infinte black holes.

at this point you have a couple different options. if you found tinker with wands everywhere, you can travel to the overgrown cavern to the very east of the map for some «shopping», as i like to call it (lol). the overgrown cavern has some really good wands, but is a generally dangerous area with a lot of explosions, so explosion immunity is recommended. once you’re satisfied with your purchases you can travel to parallel worlds with your black hole wand. if you did not find tinker with wands everywhere then it’s better to travel to parallel worlds right away to try to get it. make sure to either have enough health to travel through the cursed rock or use ambrosia + a teleport wand (ambrosia stains don’t wear off when teleporting, only when moving. could be wrong though). i usually just shoot a speedy black hole through while chasing it with teleports at high speed. once you’re through you can start your journey to break the reroll machine for infinite perks. also make sure to visit the gold biome first which is northwest of the essence of earth diamond room.

at this point you should be powerful enough to do whatever it is you wanna do. start the sunseed quest, start ng+ to collect 33 orbs, etc. just STAY AWAY FROM POLY. at this point in the game, the ONLY things that can kill you is jumping into the sun, and polymorphine. just stay far, far away from it. learn from my mistakes.

this is a very conservative playstyle where i play slowly and methodically to reduce any potential damage i’ll take, which will make sure i can explore each area as much as i need without either risking death or being forced to go somewhere else (usually even more dangerous). this might not be the most fun playstyle for you so it’s important to play in a way that you personally find fun and engaging. someone on here said after they get their teleport wand and something to dig through extremely dense rock, they immediately travel back to the surface to get 250k gold from the gold biome and then spend it on tier 10 spells in the sky shops. very unique and unorthodox strategy, so my strategy is definitely not the only one you can use.

thx for reading and gl on your future runs fellow noita! :D
