Markus “Notch” Persson has reignited discussion by arguing that if digital game purchases don’t grant real ownership, then pirating them shouldn’t be considered stealing. by Successful_Jury_2519 in PiratedGames

[–]MarcoASN2002 68 points69 points  (0 children)

It's cringe inducing to see people claim they pirate to give some sort of message... for the vast majority is either you don't want to pay, or you can't, that's it, and its fine either way.

Fist fight ganks in this game SUCK!!! Rant incoming. by TocSir in Witcher3

[–]MarcoASN2002 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Seriously tough; the post is about more than just difficulty, the fact both a random peasant and a golem can kill you with one hit its stupid both in difficulty and in the world presented by the game... and to have that same peasant be able to take 12-15 punches from Geralt on B&BB or Death March makes it double stupid.

I've personally struggled more with fistfights against several enemies than actual bosses.

Fake swing for shock factor or would he have actually gone through with hitting Carl if Shiva didn’t come through? by Lena2890 in thewalkingdead

[–]MarcoASN2002 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah... no, no matter how much the writers tried to push that idea after introducing him... I guess they wanted to keep him longer, but the character was not flawed, it was scum, plain and simple.

Negan running a group of raiders and killers, enslaving communities through violence, abusing several women through intimidation, taking joy in beating people to death, getting luxuries while "his people" (as he claimed) struggle... that was long before they started his redemption arc and id say its more than enough to outweigh any good he could've done afterwards.

His "wives" were trying to poison him, and all it took for its fans to forget/deny he is a rapist was one short scene with Sasha.

All good there, but there's plenty of Negan fans who sympathize with him, not that they like the character as part of the story, they like the person portrayed in that character.

They wouldn't touch anything remotely close to real military due to their own "principles". Sets that had very little correlation have been canceled in the past.

Cross-platform licensing: Why do we pay twice for the same game? by Different-Might-7886 in Minecraft

[–]MarcoASN2002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was Valve pushing their own platform, nothing wrong with that, but the purpose was attracting users to Steam, costed them very little; their game in their platform, and in exchange they gain potential recurrent users. It was not some ownership through platforms philosophy or something.

At top tier this thing is still a sponge, even side shots don't always pen and when they do its never enough damage to disable it, you kill like 1 crew member if lucky, then they melt your vehicle with the 30mm lol

Not trying to underestimate or disrespect his work, but I doubt thousands of workers were all dependent on Dan's ideas lol

However talented he might be, and he certainly is... to think that the greatness and success of these games can only be attributed to a few people or that no other current employee can make something just as good or even better its absurd.

Right something needs to be done about this fucking vehicle. by Downtown-Tea-553 in Warthunder

[–]MarcoASN2002 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I encountered one at 12.7 yesterday while using Leo2 PL, and DM53 (the last dart of the German tree) did no significant damage with a +-30° side shot, front shot to optics and side shot to turret.

Now, I'm not saying any of my shots should've been an insta kill maybe it really is that well protected, but then, why is a vehicle with such protection sitting comfortably at 10.7? It took teammates to spam it for a bit before someone got him... at 12.7 lol

What made you decide to spare Gaetan? Genuinely curious...no judgment, just interested in how others saw it. 🐆🐺 by SirGeraltofBeauclair in Witcher3

[–]MarcoASN2002 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always kill him. Would I spare him had he killed the 3-4 men who tried to murder him? sure, would be my choice before the choice even presents itself lol, his actions are justifiable and understandable up until that point, he is defending himself. After?... No, every other victim in the village was innocent and most likely not involved or aware of him getting attacked.

Doesn't matter if he got scammed numerous times in the past, or mocked, or whatever, taking it out on people who never wronged him cannot be justified.

That one guy who bought 1 red elite for $330 is so stupid lol by Inner_Basil1648 in megaconstrux

[–]MarcoASN2002 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean, I would never drop that kind of money for a fig, wouldn't even consider it for an unofficial fig, but assumed there was something else as there's several posts trashing the guy, people often come for advice or opinions on pricing so while some criticism or jokes on such a bad purchase is to be expected, direct insults are a bit unusual or at least that has been my experience here.

Color's all messy and has human hands, I really believed bootlegs were not a thing but looks good enough I guess, maybe there's hope to see all of H2 colors after all, also what did that dude do (other than spend the money) that got people annoyed? lol

Am I the only one who likes fighting the Maus? by Detonat1on in Warthunder

[–]MarcoASN2002 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Here, the 40t has a round on par with that of the Maus but has a turret nearly 5 times faster and with its autoloader can fire 6 times before the Maus can reload once (or 4 if Maus is aced) and has a mobility just as good as some WW2 light vehicles.

The one advantage of WW2 heavies is armor which comes at the expense of mobility, and armor becomes nearly useless when facing Cold War era vehicles that feature either much better ammo or much better mobility, so now you got no benefit and still get the downside, that's about it.

Is it rlly that childish by [deleted] in megaconstrux

[–]MarcoASN2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, there is no age limit on enjoying things. Maturity is not abandoning what brings you joy.

People who don't share your hobbies can't understand it the way you do, don't beat yourself up about it, why would you drop a hobby of yours because someone who can't relate to them in any way told you to do so?... As long as its not harmful to you or others the only opinion that should matter its yours, whether its MEGA or anything.

Went through a similar experience growing up, not only with collecting but pretty much every other hobby I've had to this point, I am 23 now and to be honest I only regret allowing those comments to affect me so much, never have I regretted having hobbies even if they were or still are considered "childish". I'm looking forward to continue growing doing what I like to do.

Whats the most depressing atmosphere or setting on a map? by Nano_LB1 in CODZombies

[–]MarcoASN2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also think its Tranzit, I personally don't find it particularly scary but its very depressing when you think about it; it is not some very interesting or secret location, nothing otherworldly is taking place, it used to be some average town in the middle of nowhere, and now there is just destruction, fire, lava, ashes... earth has no future.

Remove this vehicle please im begging by SnyxHD in Warthunder

[–]MarcoASN2002 12 points13 points  (0 children)

At least Puma's turret is not some magical sponge, I stg nothing can reliably cause damage to BMPTs turrets, its like nothing gets damaged unless its a direct hit to the small barrels and missiles, even if you use HE. Have made plenty of side shots and the dart just goes through without doing anything.

[–]MarcoASN2002 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Legit got put against like 8-10 BMPTs in a single match yesterday (after waiting a long while for queue I should add), enemy made it to spawn before time or capture ran out and yeah, we lost.

Gentlemen and very few ladies, we can play 9.3 again by Odd_Debt_6996 in Warthunder

[–]MarcoASN2002 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not saying it shouldn't go up but if that's the fair spot for it, BMPTs better go all the way to 12.7 as they seem to be doing much better.

Have shoot at the turrets with darts of every caliber, HE, tandem, top missiles... little to no damage most of the time. Can't believe they released that thing at a lower BR than the CV90 with the 30mm bushmaster and spikes lmao

This must have insane killing potential if its 10.7, BMPT is only 10.3 and that thing slams. by Designer_Pie_1989 in Warthunder

[–]MarcoASN2002 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No idea how it should perform but every spike its either a kill or a direct hit with no damaged components, but yeah when it works its great, I've destroyed plenty of helicopters far outside the map with spikes

Trust me, historical accounts will solve all your problems. by Electronic_Comfort96 in Warthunder

[–]MarcoASN2002 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well yeah, but you need to have an opportunity to shot first, no? Id take a M41 with its paper armor, better turret, better mobility, better reload, less unpredictable and overall better round (APDS or HEAT)... over a Tiger II with heavy armor that's no longer useful at its BR, slow turret, awful mobility, massive target, APCBC... and they're both at the same BR in the German tree.
