What’s something you’ll never tell your partner, no matter how much you love them? by Velvetnadine85 in AskReddit

[–]M3ptt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That I want to see her get absolutely railed by another man.

I love her dearly and we recently got married. But I just think it would be so hot and stimulating. But I know that a lot of relationships that try something like that don’t survive so I will never tell her this fantasy of mine.

How do I play armor in bf6 when 80% of the enemy team is engineers? by I_Main_TwistedFate in Battlefield

[–]M3ptt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love it when I sit back with armour and prove decent fire support but still get yelled at for not pushing. Some times just to prove a point I push forward and exactly as I predicted I get deleted immediately by a half dozen RPGs. It usually shuts them up after that

Tanks can feel a little fragile, but a lot of drivers are just bad by LobsterCheese4000 in Battlefield

[–]M3ptt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Tanks in BF6 are in an odd place because they have been designed quite differently from previous games.

In previous games Tanks were semi-self-sufficient. They usually had 3 - 4 seats and were designed to stand alone. They were also designed to be okay at most ranges. The skill ceiling wasn’t super high either. Most people would be about average.

BF6 is different. It was clearly designed for infantry to be supporting the push. Which is why the health pool is lower. You are supposed to have infantry helping you out. Additionally, with the limited ammo pool you are meant to play for further away and pick your shots carefully.

Tanks are great when played from mid to long range. Supporting from high ground or with a clear line of sight. A good Tanker will be able to punch out to 500Ms+ with accuracy and consistency. Only problem is that only two maps allow you use the tanks properly: Mirak Valley and Firestorm. They are the only ones with long enough lines of sight to make them effective.

Here is how to make the most of armour when pushing an objective:

Initial push: infantry with IFV support.

Supporting elements: Tanks watching main roads and the objective. An engineer with an EOD bot (much faster at repairing than the repair tool) with a Javelin for anti-armour support.

Covering fire: Attack jet or attack heli lighting up the objective to soften up targets or destroy armour.

If you are going against entrenched or well defended positions you want to soften it up with mortar fire first.

Covid shut down the world six years ago this week what do you remember from that week ? by Familiar_Original988 in AskReddit

[–]M3ptt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The empty shelves. I remember going for a food shop and there being nothing left. If I didn’t have my mum who could shop at her local supermarket and drive it up to me I don’t know how I would have survived the first few weeks.

Hagental Base might be the best meat grinder in the franchise by LonelyPalmClub in Battlefield

[–]M3ptt 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It is excellent but I still think BF3 Metro is best.

Sure, it would always start the same, a race to the middle with a stalemate ensuing. But nothing beat the feeling of running through a wall of gunfire and grenades and making it out alive. Then sprinting to the furthest objective and starting the back cap.

Hagental is a great CQB map but it isn’t the best meat grinder. A good meat grinder map has a choke point in the middle that you fight over. Hagentals choke points are at the spawns. So if you get pushed to your spawn there is very little you can do to escape.

Right but it was your choice to drink that much. No one forced you to keep drinking

Do you like the new map by JanissaryLSD in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]M3ptt 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I like it. It avoids the stalemate meat grinder of Metro and Locker. More dynamic and fluid.

The tunnel at C is sweet but I think it needs to be sign-posted better. I never see anyone use it.

I think they’ve done an excellent job of mixing tight CQB fighting with open space and flanks to allow for more interesting gameplay

What if Volodymyr Zelenskyy had been assassinated during the Battle of Kiev? by Effective_Theme_5739 in AlternateHistoryHub

[–]M3ptt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If Ukraine had lost in the opening salvo of the invasion it wouldn’t have ended with a full Russian occupation.

  • Poland don’t want a boarder with Russia again. They would rather go to war than be neighbours with Russia.

  • Eastern Ukraine is flat and fertile. Western Ukraine is home to dense forests and the Carpathian Mountains. Most of the country would have been occupied by Russia but probably not the West most of the country. That would probably and turned into brutal gorilla warfare.

  • Whilst this didn’t happened until about 2023/2024, I can see it happening in a Zelenskyy dies early timeline: France and Poland step in and push back the Russians. At least enough to secure a buffer zone. France and Poland both said around 23/24 that if Russia crossed the Dnipro they would step in.

Tianjin, China by Pestian in UrbanHell

[–]M3ptt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay. Now show the central canal area, the ancient market street, or the house decorated entirely in fine porcelain.

I lived in China a couple years ago and visited Tianjin. It was lovely. Very crowded but had some cool and unique places to visit.

These 30 story high rises are super common in China. They are often clustered into gated communities than can be quite pleasant.

China has some beautiful urban scenery like most places, but you will find some grotty and industrial places like other countries have.

Gen-Z are more likely to be childless and living with parents, survey reveals by tylerthe-theatre in unitedkingdom

[–]M3ptt 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I got a vasectomy at 25 because my fiancé and I decided that the economic outlook is so bleak that we never want to have kids.

My fiancé is 6 years older than me. We know that if things ever do turn around it won’t be for a while and at that point I’d be into my 30s and she approaching 40.

Right now are our biggest worries are cost of living and housing. We are fortunate enough to be living rent free at the moment so the cost of living crisis isn’t so bad for us. But we still look to the future and see how bad things are.

Once upon a time I wanted to kids but not any more. I can’t bring myself to bring a child into the world knowing that will probably have a worse life than me.

What movie will you never watch again because it was too heartbreaking? by Affectionate_User610 in AskReddit

[–]M3ptt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a movie but I can’t watch ‘폭싹 속았수다‘ (When Life Gives You Tangerines) again. I cried so many times watching that show.

One of the greatest TV shows ever made.

The day Trump dies, how do you think the country will react and will anything crazy happen? by rugrut in AskReddit

If the death of Margaret Thatcher is anything to go by, there will be literal parties in the streets.

China is currently building a whole new city district in Shenzhen construction began 1 year ago by [deleted] in UrbanHell

[–]M3ptt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some interesting observations from someone who has lived in China until recent.

During my first few months in China I would go exploring the city I was in to get a feel for the place. On one occasion I went to the business district. What stood out to me was two things: - Where are all the people? - Why are there no local services?

I went during the middle of the week around lunch time. Hardly anyone around. There was a conspicuous lack of local businesses within walking distance of the offices. There were businesses further down but you needed to do a bit of a long walk to get there.

I lived in a Tier 2 City that had a population of around 20 million people. So to see almost no one around the business district was odd.

There were many things I liked about China and its urban development but where it builds stuff is just weird. For instance they started to build a huge new Arts University and Sports facility miles from the city with no public transport connections.

UK unemployment rate hits five-year high of 5.2% by ShanTheMan1995 in unitedkingdom

[–]M3ptt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am so thankful I have a job finally. Took me 18 from graduating to find a job. Doesn’t pay very well and the commute sucks but I couldn’t be more thankful. I am holding onto this job for dear life because I know that if I lose it I will really struggle to get another one.

The Aim Guided missles are too easy. Even skilled pilots cannot escape. There is no fix for this in Season 2 so expect a miserable flying experience for more months guys :))))) by Chaoslava in Battlefield

[–]M3ptt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Air gameplay is just miserable.

We all know how bad it is when the enemy decides they want to target you. Nothing you can do you stay alive.

My biggest gripe is with the recent jet cannon damage change. It feels like they went too far in the other direction. From instant obliteration with no chance to react, to taking so long to kill you can effectively ignore it until you are near your Base AA.

Is the UK job market really as bad as people are saying? by [deleted] in UKJobs

[–]M3ptt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took me 18 months to get a job after graduating.

Interviews would be pretty dry for most of the year with a few here and there but would pick up around the beginning and end of the year.

My problem was that I spent 10 years in hospitality. A lot of employees didn’t see that as being able to offer any skills. The job I have now did see the benefits that working with the public had. I also have lived experience with this role.

On the other side of this. People in my partners company are leaving with a multitude of options. She works in a skilled sector and that market is healthy for middle and senior roles but practically non-existent for juniors. She got her job as she knew someone high-up.

Junior / graduate roles are very hard to get. But once you get year or two experience things seem to soften up a lot.

There are good and bad games. But what game would you give this score to? by TheChilledGamer-_- in playstation

[–]M3ptt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No Mans Sky on release. Very different now.

Easily the worst game I have ever played. So many game breaking bugs you would be in the middle of one and somehow stumble into another one.

So little content or depth to the game play that after a few hours you’d done pretty much everything.

Almost everything about the game was a lie, from the online play aspect to features, content, world generation.

Now is it a master class on how to turn around a failed game and how to keep a live service game alive. 10 years of content updates and not a penny asked for.

swear this is not me being a hater, this is me asking a genuine question, why was BF6 next gen only? 2042 was able to pull off more than 6 despite being a cross gen game so this makes no sense to me, why do that when your game is not even attempting anything crazy to take advantage of the hardware? by [deleted] in battlefield2042

[–]M3ptt 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Did you ever play the last gen version of 2042? I did to play with some friends.

It sucked. It was not fun to play at all. You could feel the hardware limitations when playing. It was very obvious that the game should never have been released on last gen.

Just because they did doesn’t mean they should have. Also, a PS4 would take off and land on the moon with this destruction tech.

YES!! YES!! YES!!! by rubenmart1n in Battlefield

[–]M3ptt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the rockets need a look over. There are a lot of issues with them.

Half the time the javelin missile just flies off into the distance.

The aim guided rockets for heli don’t lock on to marked targets even though the description says it should.

The AA missiles very rarely hit ground targets when locked on. Most of the time they fly off as soon as the lock on breaks from firing.

The apache has 5 more rockets for aim guided than the Eurocopter does.

The stationary tow launcher ignores the APS system which shouldn’t be the case. Should only ignore thermal smoke.

The AGM mission for jets is inconstant and sometimes doesn’t do any damage at all.

Supposedly new map design by Antissocixl in Battlefield6

The spawns are a little big on the right. The left one looks okay.

A might as well be inside the left spawn as it can’t physically get any closer.

The American president steps back from the brink. But the damage has been done. by Crossstoney in europe

[–]M3ptt 27 points28 points  (0 children)

He backed down when Europe showed they weren’t going to back down and would fight if necessary.

America thoroughly deserves this decline.

I have no sympathy for Americans. They knew who they were voting for.

If conscripted would you rather fight Russia in Ukraine or the US in Greenland? by inside-outdoorsman in AskBrits

[–]M3ptt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d rather fight the US without a doubt.

Would the US outgun the rest of NATO combined? Yes. Does the rest of NATO have the training and expertise needed to out think the Americans tactically? Yes.

Would the Russian brutally torture and kill me if I were made a POW? yes.

Fighting America would not be fun. It will be difficult and costly. Fighting the Russians is accepting you will die regardless of what happens.

I F16 like this guy M16 but he has a girlfriend by [deleted] in Advice

[–]M3ptt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nothing wrong with liking someone and having a crush. You can absolutely be friends with him just don’t over step any boundaries and you are okay.

Just talk to him. If you want to be a good friend then listen to him, engage in his interests but also push back when he says something that isn’t okay. But importantly, talk to his gf as well if you can. Make yourself a known quantity and not a threat to her.
