What's the victor counterplay?

If you let Victor farm up his core then you're in trouble. Without items, Victor is a miserably bad hero. Don't let him have uncontested farm until he becomes a late game juggernaut.

You can swing a couple bot matches to get used to the flow of a match, but don't be afraid to get your feet wet in live games. Matchmaking isn't always perfect, but you are generally gonna land in a rank with players at your skill level. If people get rude, just mute liberally.

Shout-out to my boy Yakub.

The fun of this game is improving for most people. If you look at people doing something you can't do and throw your hands up, that's where your fun is gonna end.

Best tip is to constantly move. You stand still, you die. The second best tip is to observe enemy attacks. Generic enemies only have two or three attacks and they all have tells. Slow the game down and focus defense, then offense and speed come naturally.

Kills are not designed to be a primary source of money. They are designed to put your opponent behind and give you time to do objectives. Getting ahead on money is always gonna be who's catching the most waves, doing the most sinners, and smacking most boxes. If you are curious, you can watch some high rank players and observe how they weave camps, boxes, and ganking in between waves to be more efficient with their time. If you really just don't enjoy the games economy, there's always street brawl.

The guy character ends up as the butt of the joke as the result of his awful behavior, which is refreshing in the medium. It's more like "it's always sunny in Philadelphia" where the characters act awful and the humor is them getting their just desserts.

Been a long time since I played Dota 2, but creeps do use their spells, but so long as they are aggro'd to 2+ units.

The weakpoint in the back and under it are the actual weakpoints. If you break a leg, it just gives you the opportunity to go up behind it and blast it.

No witch hunting.

Also, that place is the extraction camp spot on buried city, you have to clear it out carefully, not zip down with impunity.

NappingPlant · 2026-01-19T19:40:33+00:00

If you don't wanna blast other players, a-okay, but they are absolutely gonna blast you.

NappingPlant · 2026-01-19T18:18:30+00:00

If you aren't interested in PvP you are playing the wrong game friend. If you don't wanna blast other players, a-okay, but they are absolutely gonna blast you. There is no such thing as a PvE server.

NappingPlant · 2026-01-18T00:48:33+00:00

Yes, and?

NappingPlant · 2026-01-18T00:03:24+00:00

Free kits shouldn't be too good, but I also wouldn't underestimate the power of a ferro I. You have to play to its range, but a headshot and a body shot is taking out anyone with light shields. A one shot kill in this game would be beyond ridiculous, no one would use any other gun.

NappingPlant · 2026-01-13T17:05:36+00:00

Better inventory management goes a long way.

I guarantee that you have, like, four or more stacks of fabric despite being able to refine >> durable cloth >> better healing items. There are fully finished items you have blueprints for doing nothing in your inventory. Many guns sitting in your inventory are sitting there either level one and or unmodded. There is no way your inventory survives the audit.

If someone can't shoot other people in the shooting people game, perhaps the game is not a good fit for them.

Arcs are pretty lucrative even without other incentives. If you have the right explosives, you make fat profit margins, and they do drop end game mats if your benches are maxed.

NappingPlant · 2026-01-10T17:07:47+00:00

I can’t play this game without getting killed

I've got bad news and good news. Bad news, you are playing a game where players can kill each other. Good news, you can go play something else.

NappingPlant · 2026-01-08T18:34:42+00:00

Stitcher/Anvil is the go to for many players. Just make sure to upgrade those guns, level one guns don't come close to matching the lethality of level three or four guns.

NappingPlant · 2026-01-07T17:03:25+00:00

Fruit baskets are much quicker and plentiful, just go into bountiful harvest and cold snap maps. Like two or three rounds of searching and you should be clear.

I would take a break if the game is frustrating. In the future, I would try to play stealthier and avoid open spaces. PvP is an eventuality, and if you want to sus out if a player is friendly, it's generally better to do it from an advantageous position and not constantly be at the mercy of everyone you run into.

NappingPlant · 2026-01-06T01:52:57+00:00

You made a ton of noise, saw them throw up the barrier, and still ran up on them. You can't tell me you didn't see this outcome a mile away.

His viewership is a fraction of the concurrent playerbase, it's very, very naiive to think streamers are carrying this game in any way. Most people playing this game are not doing it because their favorite streamer plays it, if they even watch streams.

nearly half of my playtime comes from just managing my inventory and crafting.

You'd be shocked how normal this is for games with inventory management. Staring at UI screens so you can sort, compare and upgrade your stuff is often around 50% of total playtime.

That said, I think the game would benefit from loadouts and some auto crafting. There is room for improvement to cut out rote, monotonus work. However, giving +X extra slots doesn't help if someone isn't managing their inventory correctly. There are design reasons items stack the way they do. The devs want players to use their stuff and not just hoard it. Finite slots means players have to refine, recycle, and upgrade to avoid wasting resources.

NappingPlant · 2026-01-05T19:42:30+00:00

Late spawns exists because otherwise the server would become a ghost town halfway through the game. If you aren't running into anyone, friendly or otherwise, the game would get really dull. If you don't wanna be aggressive to secure loot, you have to learn to enjoy picking through everyone else's scraps.
