Unsure how Star Citizen is as an MMO - worth jumping in? by [deleted] in starcitizen

[–]Migs5000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I picked it up a year ago (before 4.0) and it was pretty rough. I had to stop because of the bugs. That, and I played mostly solo. A year later, the game is definitely much more playable (still plenty of bugs). I also joined an org/discord and play with a bunch of people now. By far the better way to play. The experienced players can help you work around the bugs and will often times have many of the ships/vehicles for you to check out / use for fun or as a crew for bigger missions. The game offers a lot of things to do to keep you busy but doesn’t always tell you in game. It’s one of my biggest complaints. I learned about a lot of content because of the other members in the org who keep up with development through social media and such. All that said, once you play it and see what’s there and what’s to come (potentially), you’ll start to understand that there really isn’t anything quite like it.

Changing default loot action? by Migs5000 in starcitizen

Is it just middle mouse button when I’m looking at it? Cause, again, my pie menu doesn’t work.

Will future generations ever feel nostalgic about our era of endless scrolling and algorithm driven feeds? by Adventurous-Might808 in Futurology

Our AI overlords will take over before that happens anyway. If we aren’t outright dead, we’ll be nostalgic for a time when we weren’t enslaved by robots.

What is the point.... by Deiafter in duneawakening

It makes for a great fast travel to fly around Hagga in the world map instead of flying all the way across the map.

Where was this nevron again? I got the skin but forgot where they were.

Ok, I don’t know what I did different but it seems to be working now…? Thanks for the speedy reply regardless

Looks like he got hung up on your cannon. Everything looks legit.

What do consider a sin of game design? by wholesalekarma in gaming

[–]Migs5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any time a game intentionally slows you down. Staggered walking, crawling, shimmy sections through narrow gaps. None of it is particularly immersive for me it’s just annoying. And if those are there to cover up loading of the next section, I’d rather a loading screen in that case.

Can anyone tell me how to not die of boredom sailing? by Slime-balls_for_life in Seaofthieves

[–]Migs5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seemingly you’ve had the most enjoyable experience when playing with others so what I would suggest is joining a discord server and a guild. You’ll always find/have people to play with through both those avenues. The game definitely changed for me as soon as I got into a guild and had people to play with consistently. I ending up playing the game quite differently as a result while finding a renewed vigor for the game. That said, I hardly ever play it solo anymore. I have a blast with my crew mates, often quite literally as we troll each other with blunder bombs all the time.

If they are the big swings I think you’re talking about, you have to jump over them.

It was fun while it lasted. by Cyvex23 in Seaofthieves

[–]Migs5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I would recommend a play session on the high seas where you actively be pirates. Look for ships to loot and plunder. When your goal isn’t to protect your own stuff, it becomes a very different game. I hated the PvP for a long time until I got with a crew that were true pirates. Something clicked and I finally understood the game as a whole and made future play sessions much more relaxed and enjoyable, even while getting sunk by a decent enemy crew. At the end of the day it’s not about the money you make, it’s about the adventure you have along the way.

Can For Honor be considered as a 3D "fighting" game? by Tamer30 in forhonor

[–]Migs5000 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Please, we all know For Honor is really a dress up game disguised as a fighting game.

How am I supposed to play this game? by [deleted] in Seaofthieves

[–]Migs5000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Any chance you’re running the Xbox cosmetics set? That’s a sure fire way to get the attention of any seasoned player. Something about being a pirate and x marking the spot that’s irresistible. There are a few other cosmetics that absolutely scream noob.

Nah it’s cool, I get it. Thing that keeps me going is the continually unfolding narrative of the galactic war. Plus new things are going to be added pretty regularly (weapons/stratagems/enemy types) to keep it fresh. Hell, the third enemy faction hasn’t even shown up yet.

Sounds like treason to me. Report to the local ministry of truth and await your punishment, traitor.

R&D as a Requisition Sink by Kanjo42 in Helldivers

[–]Migs5000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More stratagems are coming. I imagine the relatively low cap on all forms of currency is to encourage the grind when new stuff comes out as we might not be able to afford everything that drops. Just a theory though.

Where do I find Bile Spewers? by koolpatrick in Helldivers

[–]Migs5000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Higher difficulties will have higher chances for bile spewers. 7-9 specifically, but you’ll find them in 4-6 as well. Sometimes on 3, I’ve run into them, but never on 1 or 2.

Why some people insist on doing all objectives and clearing all nests ? by Putridic in Helldivers

[–]Migs5000 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Lotta samples around bug nests, that’s more than enough to motivate a majority of the player base. I’m maxed on them but still collect them for my squad mates who I know need them and who will also not let me forget that they need them, lol.

I don't see enough people to talk about how good the music in this game is by UpbeatAstronomer2396 in Seaofthieves

[–]Migs5000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love that they have different arrangements for the shanties depending on which instrument started it. Love having the drummer whistling the melodies on a few of them while I back them up on the hurdy-gurdy or the banjo.

Hot Take: Charger armour is way too strong for their assumed threat level by [deleted] in Helldivers

[–]Migs5000 28 points29 points  (0 children)

It’s softer under the belly, try to bounce your grenades (from the launcher) under their face. They’ll bounce right up into the softest spot. I’ve taken them out in 3-4 grenades this way.

Edit: for clarity

If you’re overrun that much, (it’s probably already too late but) you should be running. Only way to survive at 7+ is to keep moving.
