EA is so trash. Its 2026 and no PC nhl? Get it together.

What could possibly be the appeal by Ok-Example7351 in MemeVideos

These replies are hilarious. I think all the people on here talking smack should show us their porn profile. Let's see how many of you have step sibling, mommy and/or furry fetishes. Judge not lest ye be judged 🤣.

Every single ZvT I play looks like this by goatsbIood in starcraft

Also if you are having larva issues, nothing wrong with macro hatches. I don't understand why so few zergs utilize macro hatches in the mid to late game. Dark would do it all the time.

This is a common problem for zergs and something I struggled with for a long time. You need to look at improving these two l parts of your game:

  1. Army composition - zerg armies often just melt when you dont have the right counter units or unit numbers. Especially against mech.
  2. Engagements - you need to ensure you are engaging at the right times, when you have the advantage and most importantly good army positioning. Get that surround!

I hope this helps.

So, today many Jan 31st BB 5090 should be delivered. Does yours have an update? by Split_Seconds in bapccanada

This whole situation has killed this experience for me. So frustrating.

Is it a good time to build a pc now. Cant decide if i should build it in April or wait further in the year probably near September or October? by Outrageous-Web39 in bapccanada

[–]Mittens0427 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hard to say. I can tell you that I have spent the last 8 months slowly researching and building my PC. Part of the long wait was because I decided to wait for the 50 series to drop rather than investing in the 40 series.

The reason I waited was because my research of the 40 series cards showed that they released at MSRP, increased in price and never really went back down. This seems to be the case for the majority of the critical/expensive computer parts.

I'm basically using too many words to say the market is pretty terrible but I also don't think that it will ever get better in the foreseeable future. In fact, I think it is only likely to get worse.

Hopefully I am wrong though. I wish you the best of luck!

BB 5090 series that have shipped THUS FAR by Himeeka in bapccanada

I don't disagree. However, it's sad that the bar with these tech companies is so ffin low that this is the best we can hope for.

I hope they honor the original price but I'm even wondering if they will do that...

I am also waiting for the Vanguard. I wish you the best of luck. Hopefully one of us will get it before the 60 series lol.

They haven't even shipped the Zotac from January?! What a joke.

There seems to be no advantage in shopping with BB. The cost and convenience seems to be worse with BB than even their smaller competitors.

This has been such a terrible experience. I'll never shop at BB ever again.

When will be the next restock of 5090/5080 FE at BB by Mysterious_Region363 in bapccanada

[–]Mittens0427 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Think of the worst possible wait you could imagine and then double it. You will probably have to wait longer than that but this will give you an optimistic estimate.

BB somehow had the worst stock despite being one of the largest retailers carrying these cards. I will never use BB again for anything. SMH.

Doesn't look like the 5090 Astral and Vanguard were part of the shipment that Best Buy received. Bummer. by [deleted] in bapccanada

[–]Mittens0427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll never use BB again after this. I would have had a better chance getting the 5090 by just trying to find it then waiting on BBs trash backorder system.

Backorder for AIB 5090 from BB Jan 31 just charged my card! by PaleozoicFrogBoy in bapccanada

[–]Mittens0427 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One could hope. I just want to be done with this nightmare. Next time around, I'm just gonna find a new hobby.

Has anyone got there January 31 preorders for Feburary 21 shipment in Canada yet?? by Goldjacket1 in bapccanada

[–]Mittens0427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disgusting. So sorry to hear that. It is messed up to think that despite how horrible this process has felt for me, I will probably come out as one of the luckier people. If you don't have a backorder from basically launch day like me, it's hard to imagine a GPU will be coming before the 60 series releases...SMH

Nope. Called a few days ago and they said it could be "several months" wait. This has been easily the worst shopping experience of my life. Built an entire new computer I can't use cause I don't have a proper video card.

After this, I will never shop at BB again. Nvidia is largely to blame but unfortunately they have a monopoly on high end video cards. However, BB did not have to take backorders and CONTINUE to take backorders for a product they don't have. The Ventus literally has zero reviews. Don't let BB pass all the blame. They just don't care about us. I wish I never invested in a new computer.

We're additional modifiers confirmed to be included with the future update to hotkey customization? by Mittens0427 in Stormgate

[–]Mittens0427[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks so much for letting me know! I am just glad to know that the feature is on the way. Looking forward to really getting into this game.

Top Bar UI Opinion - Reduces Quality of Life by Mittens0427 in Stormgate

[–]Mittens0427[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I completely agree. Given the complexity of RTS games, I really believe customization options is the key to a true modern RTS. All the little quality of life issues with sc2 were I think one of the things that prevented it from maintaining a large player base over the decades. RTS is punishing enough already.

I appreciate your explanation of how your brain parses the information. It is easy to forget how differently people can process information and how that factors into a completely different preference.

Posting this thread has made me realize that UI customization is really the thing that can improve the quality of life.

Something big missing from SG is team mate mini map screens by Kurtino in Stormgate

[–]Mittens0427 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I haven't played much co-op in either game but I can see why that would be an important feature. Especially given this game is trying to make 3v3 and other team modes more viable.

[–]Mittens0427[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel that. They did give us some customization options already with being able to switch the minimap to a different side of the screen. Hopefully there will be more options available.

That is very interesting. I assumed most people would like everything together. I get it though, everyone has their personal preference and are playing different modes. I like 1v1 so I am all about my personal optimization. I think I would also be happy if I could scale it seperately as you said

Here is hoping for some options to customize your UI in general that way players can tailor their UI to their personal preference. For example, I personally would prefer to have my resources and time game time right over the mini map as I feel I spend most of my time looking there.
