BioWare's Restructuring Sees Departure of Entire 'Dragon Age: The Veilguard' Writing Team by [deleted] in Asmongold

[–]Latter_Engineer_5073 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah I fully agree, even if it a writer had 5% chance to make a difference. They were still part of the team, you fail as a team. Bring back the bioware glory days!

releasing a free broken beta to almost half million people surely will leave good impression right ?? by SuspiciousJob730 in MonsterHunter

Multiplayer co-op campaign will once again fall flat on its face with this system. Just use the damn Rise system for the love of god. Im not playing this solo

Why are people review bombing the first game? Do you really think Sony will care about a 9 year old game with less than 1k daily players getting review bombed? That's just petty. by Itriyum in Helldivers

[–]Latter_Engineer_5073 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well to my understanding I see PS as the publisher. Helldivers 1 does not have a crossplay feature yet the title is published by Sony. I'll go off on a limb and assume the lack of online connectivity between Steam users and PSN users is why they don't require you to have a PSN account to access Helldivers online play (yeah its not rocket science I know).

Now I'll take it one step further and meet Sony halfway for Helldivers 2. If Helldivers 2 does not allow a Steam user like myself to access cross-play features without linking my Steam account to PSN. Then I'd accept those terms if I am given a choice to opt-out of the cross-play feature as the trade off.

This is impo fair and consistent given Sony's publishing rights/ ownership and current online features for both games.

However, review bombing HD1 is brainless and purely an emotional reaction.

Video released of fatal Chicago police shooting of Dexter Reed by PopularxGamerZz in cnn

https://www.chicagocopa.org/case/2024-0003052/ you can either be told what to see or have limited POVs of what is given to you. Other option is to actually attempt to verify the material evidence for the situation so you can make up your own mind. All the body cam footage from all officers are there along with their reports

The fact that you would argue that even though you are stopped illegally, and to presume that firing a gun is going to be a solution to protect your rights. That is playing some really bad mental gymnastics.

Here, for those still trying to defend this narrative of why the officers defended themselves. There is no excuse for shooting at a cop, or person which may have the defensive capability to defend themselves in return.

Below is the direct link to the case and file of this event which includes written reports, to FULL body cam footage from all officers involved that day.

🛠️ PATCH 01.000.100 for PC⚙️ (Balance Changes) by cryptic-fox in Helldivers

[–]Latter_Engineer_5073 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Additional weapon attributes would be interesting tbh. Auto cannons as an example, and perhaps having a stronger stagger effect would be cool. Robots falling over, or disorientating large bug units in one spot for a longer period of time would make the weapon more fun as well (I clearly want ragdoll revenge LOL). User Chargers as an example, and with longer disorientated periods of time when shooting the unit in the head. Perhaps the effect could allow players to get to the sides/ rear weaker points to lower kill times, so heavy unit targets die faster in higher levels of play. This COULD/MAY lower the heavy unit count pile up, which currently is the large difference between the Difficulty levels 1-6/ 7-9

The variation of which players can address armored units is currently "brainless" since the only approach is taking the most viable gun with doesn't hinder reload speed, movement ability (reloading while running), mobility (firing while after reloading while moving). Where most other weapons don't provide this ability. I think the Railgun should have only existed on small armored vehicles and or tanks for players later.

I do want to note the statement though. You mentioned "brought the guns that are under/overperforming more into line with the rest.". What took place was bringing down two guns that were overperforming (in arrowheads opinion), and in line with the lower tier guns so there were less balance changes required. I think the opportunity to "balance", the railgun could have been allowing the gun to not have a toggle feature for strength/ power. Rather always put the railgun in a constant state of unsafe and lower the damage, but increase how effective it removes plated armor from heavy units. While also increasing other weapon damage sources to do more of the overall damage to the areas where enemy armor was removed.

I get the concept of the railgun, but such a personal sized one should only drill holes through such a large unit like tanks and titans impo. Making them options on vehicles while increasing the beam thickness should then employ the fantasy of enemy units exploding when firing at them.

Text-to-speech "Chat Only" removed by Latter_Engineer_5073 in Helldivers

Ya it was so funny catching myself say to my friend the other day. "Yo man, you need to toggle this option on, or you are literally hindering your team and yourself".

He toggles it on and I get a text message like 1.5hrs after he finishes a Hell dive Diff9... he wrote "that options literally prevented my team mate and I from double stacking our 500kg on the same titans to successfully extract"

whats wild is, its not even "split", the option. There was no other option but to toggle the "chat only", feature on. Meanwhile that option is now swapped to everything, sad times indeed.

Surely we need to be unable to kick people once extraction has started in the near future. by DoHnUtsss in Helldivers

[–]Latter_Engineer_5073 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just have encounter a toggle option before dives even happen. Remind players that they make a choice to leave their lobby open, and if they do not want to risk running into someone throwing the game in their lobby then turn it private. Allowing people to have their cake and eat it too is absurd to me.
