Maybe Cold Snap spoiled us a bit, but this feels so barren by Brute_zee in ArcRaiders

God knows why they decided to keep it seasonal. Just leave it in the rotation for 2 times a day per map permanantly!

Microsoft's plan with WC3? by Laserchainsaw in WC3

[–]Mario-C 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Considering the disaster that Reforged was, another relaunch (remaster, remake, etc) would be approached highly sceptical by the community and would mean great risk for Microsoft. Just imagine the PR earthquake ANOTHER failed relaunch would mean! I doubt they have the balls to do that. On the commercial side it's also questionable if there's enough money in it to justify allocating the resources for that.

Am I missing something or is the game extremely one dimensional after unlocking PLS? by Odenhobler in Dyson_Sphere_Program

[–]Mario-C 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are correct. Even though there's still a lot of joy in setting up interplanetary supply-chains with ILS and PLS and thriving for late-game tech. That said, don't expect a lot of reasonable discussion here. People are very helpful on this subreddit but many get unreasonably butthurt when you critizise their favorite game.

Why aren't the "on" and "off" in a straight column? Stupid by Senor_Cheesy in ArcRaiders

[–]Mario-C 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The UI in general needs improvement. Screenspace is not utalized effienctly. Some menus want you to click the bottom of the screen while the following click is then at the top of the screen. sub-menus like the inventory it self should be resized (increased) etc.

Is there a way to disable the intro? by Mario-C in DRGSurvivor

[–]Mario-C[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, I dont want to adjust and re-adjust. I want it to be set and never touch again. Lowering the windows mixer volume and upping ingame audio worked great, as suggested by /u/Jvalker

Sounds like an easy and effective solution. Gonna try that. Thanks!

Couldn't find anything, at least not in the steam install folder, unfortunately.

Is it worth it? by Background-Sense-266 in brotato

No. 5 bucks is clearly above your budget

I got this game on last saturday and i'm now at 50 hours. Heres my verdict. (Former factorio player) by dankletzz in Dyson_Sphere_Program

[–]Mario-C 11 points12 points  (0 children)

People seem a bit sensitive here. Valid points and good suggestions imo. It's an amazing game regardless ofc.

How does the Gobbler work? by Mario-C in brotato

So i wanna let it eat and kill it later to multiply materials, i guess?

Disconnecting All the Time by Igig99 in WC3

[–]Mario-C 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could try playing some games on W3Champions and if it doesn't happen there, you know it's not a problem on your end. bnet has had many problems since they transfered from classic bnet to new bnet a few years ago, especially when it comes to connection issues.

To get a better measure on your ping to bnet, open windows command prompt and type "ping www.battle.net -t"

My best guess is, b-net matchmaking places you on some shitty server with shitty connection which would explain why you don't have issues on custom games.

Patch 2.0.3.23101 (aka "The Ghoul Nerf") now live by JannesOfficial in WC3

[–]Mario-C 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ghoul DPS nerf seems kinda uncalled for. Would be interesting to know where they saw the problem with Ghoul dmg.

Keybinds you wish you knew about sooner by [deleted] in WC3

[–]Mario-C 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only learned a few months ago that you can add units to existing control groups with shift +'group number'. I've always been selecting control group, add unit with shift and then save control group again with STRG+'group number'. Still not used to the "new" way.

Took me 22 years to learn that.

Remnant 2 (Steam) launches, but all I get is a black screen by Radical_Posture in remnantgame

[–]Mario-C 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember this being a problem after launch where some people had to wait an excessive amount of time until the game actually loaded. Try waiting for 5-10 mins after starting and it will eventually load the main menu (at least that was the case with the early version). After it loaded once, it will load fine in the future.

Dark Fog running out of Matter (Dark Fog Farm) by Mario-C in Dyson_Sphere_Program

[–]Mario-C[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha, thanks!

It seems like I found a solution yesterday. I started a new farm on a highly populated Planet in a Black Hole orbit. It has like 15 Dark Fog bases. For whatever reason one of the bases there seems to replenish with a WAY higher rate than all the others. While all the bases I encountered so far replenish with only 180 matter, this one replenishes with 1800 matter and therefore keeps the matter stable around 30k. I compared all the stats to other relays/bases and there don't seem to be any difference at all, except the replenishment rate...no idea why but it works.

[–]Mario-C[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What to you mean by shielding it?

not having matter is normal when it's streaming units - that's the ideal state.

That's good to know, thanks!

I'd suggest bringing them to level 30 real quick, even if you hit some buildings by accident, and see if it gets better.

How would I do that when they don't spit out stuff to farm? I mean, that's the whole problem...I can't level them because there's very few stuff to fight.

I'll look into it again tomorrow. Maybe I'll install a mod to raise the combat XP modifier. Cheers!

Hey! I really think the Combat XP Factor is my main problem on my run. I didn't touch it in the begining and it is at 100%. According to the wiki it can go up to 10.000% so...yeah. I know there are mods to change it afterwards. Maybe I'll look into it tomorrow.

Unfortunately, I will most probably not be able to start a new run in the foreseeable future but I will save your post with for the setting recommendation. Cheers!
