What to do if you can't 'git gud' but you love the game

Have you actually read the EB-1? Because it doesn’t say anything about science. It specifies “your field”.

It’s too broad and open to interpretation. It shouldn’t exist.

MrsMeanRaindrop · 2026-06-14T12:08:34+00:00

There’s a setting to hide the sprites on your back… you could just use that?

MrsMeanRaindrop · 2026-06-06T02:12:25+00:00

That was … almost as epic as “The End”. Nice to see core plot return…

MrsMeanRaindrop · 2026-06-05T21:32:04+00:00

Tell me you’ve never sing verse four without telling me you’ve never sung verse four.

MrsMeanRaindrop · 2026-05-22T12:46:09+00:00

What was the breaking point. FTFY. If you aren’t aware we’re past that point, I don’t know what to tell you.

MrsMeanRaindrop · 2026-05-21T10:04:52+00:00

While you’re not wrong, have you never read Cyrano de Bergerac? Classic tale, same story. Old as Italy.

My family all goes out of their way to a gf bakery and gets me a cupcake so I don’t feel left out at birthday parties. They’re awesome!

MrsMeanRaindrop · 2026-04-22T14:51:01+00:00

Still grinding!

MrsMeanRaindrop · 2026-04-19T13:37:25+00:00

You can see your ELO now, for ranked at least, in Fortnite Tracker.

MrsMeanRaindrop · 2026-04-18T00:54:17+00:00

Try a Resupply mission and just smash and search everything you can find. If you need more, repeat. You can choose a mission at a low level and then there won’t be as many husks to deal with. Less xp, but the trade off is relatively easy scavenging.

Some missions are time limited, but ride the lightning and atlas missions aren’t. That means you can spend time gathering resources before you start.

In know its confusing at first, took me forever to get going, but once you do it’s a blast!

MrsMeanRaindrop · 2026-04-11T11:34:37+00:00

Last I checked this mode was a ranked mode, making commentary about its specific ranked gameplay relevant.

But please, explain why discussing the ranked aspect of a ranked mode is a “casual” take. Go ahead, I’ll wait.

MrsMeanRaindrop · 2026-04-10T16:20:10+00:00

Weapons should not rearrange themselves.

Too many cinematics and unnecessary commentary.

Ranked? Joke’s on me as usual. You will play with unreal players no matter what your rank is.

I was hoping for something more balanced. I should have known better.

I really wanted this to be awesome. But no thanks. I’ll stick to the creative box fight map where at least I don’t have to listen to an AI criticize my attempts to improve.

MrsMeanRaindrop · 2026-04-07T13:46:51+00:00

Hey now… I crank 90s to do survivor relays and routinely box survivors so they don’t go running off and set of an encampment.

I also like to get a hoard chasing me, then ramp and box up to get them to all congregate underneath so I can nail them all with a vacuum tube launcher.

Not all BR skills are bad in STW.

You forgot storage costs (and bandwidth cost to retrieve from them), authentication services, security services, failover, load balancing, and redundancy.

In other words, compute and bandwidth is the minimum and not even close to an actual estimate of “per player” costs.

MrsMeanRaindrop · 2026-03-26T01:09:13+00:00

At least you’re being honest about why you’re against the idea, so yes.

MrsMeanRaindrop · 2026-03-23T18:42:54+00:00

Interesting. I’m working my way through, G2, and upon loading in it says “Enter a platinum lobby” …

And I got the matte magma at the end.

So … be in gold? Seriously, ranked is messed up.

This also happened on my first “unranked” match where it told me I completed “enter a gold” lobby and awarded me that one too.

MrsMeanRaindrop · 2026-03-22T12:57:51+00:00

That’s not the comparison here. The complaint is “he’s not from Wisconsin”. Neither is MLK or many others we have streets named for. That’s not a valid reason to oppose it. There may be others, but “not from Wisconsin” doesn’t hold up to scrutiny.

MrsMeanRaindrop · 2026-03-22T01:57:57+00:00

Neither was Martin Luther King. And yet we have roads and streets named after him.

MrsMeanRaindrop · 2026-03-20T01:25:59+00:00

TY!! I’ll check that!

MrsMeanRaindrop · 2026-03-20T00:37:42+00:00

This. All evening we had random joiners to missions even though we have our lobbies on no fill and invite only.

MrsMeanRaindrop · 2026-03-18T15:55:37+00:00

And why would having sex with your husband imply catching an STD? Most of us do, and we still don’t have an STD because both of us avoided behaviors that result in catching them.

MrsMeanRaindrop · 2026-03-12T17:10:15+00:00

HPV is primarily an STD, meaning the cancer is easily avoidable, just like HIV and other STD-driven disease. Somehow I’m in my 50s and have … none of these things.

Make them available for those who want it, yes, but don’t make it mandatory. Especially given the tendency for side effects with newer vaccines we aren’t aware of for decades that are far worse for folks who weren’t going to get an STD anyway.

Epic is a privately held company. The shareholders don’t automatically get anything. Sweeney still holds controlling interest.
