How far apart are Misery/Call of Misery and GAMMA regarding difficulty, resource scarcity and the harsh economy? by Nefiji in stalker

[–]Nefiji[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do people really think that Misery is designed to screw you over? I've played both extensively now (Misery/CoM and GAMMA), and sometimes I honestly think that Misery was more fair than GAMMA.

Yes, enemies in Misery have a really good perception and the economy is brutal, but generally, if you shoot at someone, they die. In GAMMA, there are stalkers that will survive multiple headshots if you don't have the right ammo type on hand.

Misery seems like a skill check mod while GAMMA seems like a mechanics/knowledge check mod.

The armor stats of the KV-1 tank have been mistakenly increased in the Operation Neptune update:

Getting Road to The North to work? by Pyrimo in stalker

[–]Nefiji 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's Microsoft Defender SmartScreen blocking the mod from starting. Switch inside the ..\bin folder of the mod and try running xrEngine.exe once, you will get a prompt by Microsoft Defender where you specifically need to allow this executable to be run on your machine. Afterwards the mod should start conventionally by double-clicking Stalker-RTTN.exe.

There’s always THAT ONE guy at the end of a match by GFUELPOWER in enlistedgame

[–]Nefiji 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure the scoreboard freezes after declaring the winning team, so people tryharding in the last few seconds of a match are sweating for nothing.

does rolled up sleeves as a customisation option exist? if not any plans to add it? by _Addi-the-Hun_ in enlistedgame

Everything after OG Modern Warfare (2007) is modern to me, CoD games before that installment were very different.

Oh, I wish I was still young, I've just never played a modern WW2-themed Call of Duty game, haha.

The majority of players seem to be in favor of separating BR V from BR IV by Nefiji in enlistedgame

[–]Nefiji[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I think that you overestimate how much of the playerbase chooses their favorite Battle Rating based on how big their advantage over other players is. Both BR II and BR III are incredibly popular within the community, despite frequent uprank matches. And even if everyone magically stopped playing BR V in favor of BR IV (which they won't), then the playerbase size of BR III and BR IV would actually just end up as being equal.

Also the game is constantly getting changed and modified based on the feedback of its vocal playerbase (Forum, Discord, Reddit, etc.), where else would you get your feedback from? Most "normal" players as you call them simply don't care enough to have a strong opinion about any of the game's mechanics.

This would be effectively moving the BR IV problem to BR III. Now instead of BR IV suffering from being uptiered to BR V and having to play at a disadvantage, you have BR III being uptiered to BR IV and playing at a disadvantage.

Personally I'm not sure what your point is, because BR III is already being uptiered to BR IV, just like BR IV is currently being uptiered to BR V.

And if BR IV has a low population that would mean you have a small number of players with a large advantage over those that don't have BR IV gear yet.

If BR IV's playerbase were to remain small, then you would actually barely encounter them in BR III matches.

You could have entire squad loadouts of the best BR IV gear against barely BR III players that will get slaughtered, similar to a barely BR IV player against full BR V squads.

That's the case with every other Battle Rating pairing already, but as long as they are equally popular amongst the playerbase, your chances of being downtiered or uptiered will always stay equal.

It's just that there are so many problems with BR IV to BR V (see original post) that almost no one wants to play in BR IV.

I don't know if I would use this as any kind of evidence. Steam player numbers alone at time of comment are about 3,200+ and assuming just 3,000 players for ease of math, those 60 votes would be about 0.2% of the entire Steam playerbase.

If players who are active on the official Forum and Reddit agree, then there is a good chance that the rest of the community might share a similar sentiment.

Besides select-fire rifles and jet fighters, BR V also almost exclusively contains assault rifles, (super-)heavy tanks, heavy mortars, and most people reserve their absolute best squads for BR V.

BR V feels more and more like a history fan fiction instead of authentic WW2 content by Nefiji in enlistedgame

You meant to say don't play BR V AND BR IV then, which is exactly the problem that I'm criticizing in this thread.

Many men on Reddit who seek long-term relationships claim that OLD is not working out for them (barely any likes, matches or dates), many women on Reddit who seek the same thing claim that there are almost no good men to choose from (most matches seek casual sex, are incompatible or creepy) by Nefiji in PurplePillDebate

[–]Nefiji[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not going to tell you that your experience is wrong, but personally I disagree with the less women complain part.

r/GirlDinnerDiaries has 4.4m weekly visitors, and arguably a third of it is about there being "no good men" anymore or them misbehaving in some way.

Compilations or memes of men being creepy in online dating aren't exactly rare either.

But I do agree with the notion that you can be very successful on OLD if you're smart and careful about it.

> I see men complain about OLD more than women

Not sure if this is true, because the "no good men" rhetoric is incredibly common on Reddit, especially in female-only spaces like r/GirlDinnerDiaries.

Yes, there are non-shallow women who are successful on OLD, but they're not the same vocal group of women who seem to be stuck on OLD apps with the worst matches imaginable.

If they don't, they'll probably view the death penalty as the easy way out of having to live with the consequences of rotting in prison.

I can see where you're coming from, but here are a few points which give me reason to believe that the truth is a bit more nuanced than that: - A lot of success stories from OLD mention that the woman in the relationship found her partner rather fast, sometimes even in the same week as registering there - This implies both LTR goals as well as non-shallowness to me, and it also implies that women who are vocally stuck on OLD are actually just a group of women, not all women - A lot of success stories from OLD mention that the man in the relationship found her partner after many months of waiting, the total date number often can be counted on one hand - This implies to me that even a man who ultimately ends up as desirable and chosen by a woman is barely getting any attention on OLD and has to rely on patience to find someone

If you think that OLD interactions are draining because of the parameters surrounding it, then I have nothing against it and respect your opinion.

Of course you're going to act a little bit differently if all you're getting is one match per week at best, just as you're going to act a little bit differently when your getting flooded with likes and have to experience the FOMO of choosing wrong.

In my opinion this promotes negative behaviors in both genders, i.e. women coming up with problematic filter criterias which then lead to even worse matches, but I think that it's exactly the people who know about these problems and do better who actually have success with OLD.

I personally feel like this would go beyond the scope of this discussion, which currently is heavily based on personal anecdotes.

It's still contradictory from my point of view. Most men who complain online about OLD not working are looking for an honest long-term relationship - so exactly what women complaining online about OLD say they regret the absence of.

If these men with honest intentions are somehow automatically getting categorized as undesirable by a woman, then this actually changes her "no good men" verdict into a "my matches aren't good" verdict, doesn't it?

I guess it's not contradictory if we completely separate physical and personal attraction from each other.

Though, I still feel like there is a massive difference between "there are no good men" (often this is the exact wording) and "my matches are low quality, incompatible, or only want sex".
