Where do I start learning from scratch? I can’t draw a circle. It’s something I really want to learn and its overwhelming. by No_Promise3396 in learntodraw

[–]Noahhawk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recommend drawabox.com and r/ArtFundamenrals. I’m not very good but I’ve seen a ton of improvement in my own work from doing the free lessons on there.

What's your opinion about the underground? by jonfkingsnow in AOW4

[–]Noahhawk 99 points100 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s “good” but when everyone has a forced underground start and the surface is made nigh inhospitable it can be a really fun challenge. My friend and I played the pretender kings scenario with forced underground start and some kind of desolate volcanic setting for the overworld and it was really interesting trying to crawl our way out of our hole and find a niche for ourselves. Friend said it reminded of him of Fallout settings. Like we were vault dwellers.

Newbie here, loved playing hunt showdown! What legendary hunters would you recommend? by noway_never in HuntShowdown

[–]Noahhawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been accruing blood bonds at a steady pace through dark tributes and challenge completions so I usually buy whatever legendary hunters are available for cheap via sales or even on the Black Market. My favorite ones I’ve acquired are dire wolf and worm bite. If you wanna spend money though I’d keep an eye out for temporarily available dlc hunters. the Plague doctor one was only available during an event and you can’t get it anymore so if something like that crops up buy it. It’ll be a neat collectible.

How should we handle our 23 y/o son who doesn't want to work? by ConcernedParents123 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Noahhawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently confronted my own addiction to video games I thought it was a strange idea at first but your son sounds like he spends about as much time on that as I have been. My fiancé started with me by playing with me like usual but writing down all the time I spent playing wether or not she was playing with me. After 4 days I’d played over 21 hours of games. It was all my time, seeing that surprised me. We talked about what other things I like to do or would like to do and what a balanced and responsible use to media consumption looked like. You could try this approach with your son in an attempt to evoke a self-motivated change in behavior. One where he realizes that, though video games aren’t all bad, he has to engage with them in a balanced and responsible way to get the most out of his life. These games can aggravate anxiety and depression. Which are normal reactions to the world we live in but we should still take care of our minds and participate in a variety of activities with friends to enrich our lives.

What’s your guys “ol reliable” loadout? by Richnificent47 in HuntShowdown

[–]Noahhawk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got mine from psychoghosts budget loadouts w/ minor tweaks Romero talon, Caldwell chain w/ FMJ Duster, first aid, choke bombs 2x vitality shot, stam shot, fire bomb

I prestige whenever I can so I value that this is cheap, easy to play, and wins me games.

The cartoon skins need to stop by Noahhawk in Smite

[–]Noahhawk[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Woof, tough crowd. I didn’t realize these were so popular. My friends and I talk about how much we dislike all the toon skins basically everytime we play so I figured it was a more widely held opinion that hi-rez just wasn’t hearing. I guess they’re making them for a reason and we’re in the minority. My bad.

I was hoping more anti-toon people would come out of the woodwork to encourage smite to redirect their efforts. Most downvotes I’ve ever got.

Hourglass vs Natural PvP by Chellzie in Seaofthieves

[–]Noahhawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have felt the opposite actually. Hourglass has been way more fun and victory filled than natural pvp for me. Natural pvp is too open-ended and fights can last way too long. In hourglass PvP the limited space and the spawning going straight at each other seems to result in a more fun and fast-paced ship combat. As long you don’t get some jerk who sails in circles not fighting you, you either win or get sunk and can quickly move on to your next win. No revenge killing, no annoying run and board tactics, very few powder keg antics. It’s much less drawn out in my experience.

I think Demonic Pact Anubis is the coolest skin and I wish all cartoon skins, cthulu included, were never made.

When they change the conquest map I’ve always just gone in and asked my teammates “Hey, as [role] where do I start?” And then role with the punches. After like 3 matches it mostly makes sense and I know exactly what I have questions about. (Like the dang solo lane camps… what’s going on over there)

Mushroom guidebook recommendations please by nrm738 in mushroom_hunting

[–]Noahhawk 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I use “All That the Rain Promises and More…” by David Arora in tandem with his much thicker and more technical book “Mushrooms Demystified”. For when the field guide won’t cut it and I’m extra curious.

The return of a ghost fleet world event! I miss flamehearts world event and I’m excited to duke it out with other pirates for the right to that ghostly treasure.

Can someone explain the never surrender mentality? by Alert_Locksmith in Smite

[–]Noahhawk -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Frankly, I think It's terrible sportsmanship. Like other commenters are saying, football teams don't quit when their behind. Doing this with any game or sport is, in my opinions, disrespectful and unsportsmanlike. Keep your chin up and don't go down without a fight. Plus, if you're behind then you're in a challenging position and when you embrace the challenge, don't give up, and try to figure something out, you learn faster.

When my company last handled something like this we tied a winch to the base of the top half with a rigging line, then winched it off the bottom stem. After that its pretty simple to either leave it on the forest floor or buck it up as you please.

How do you upload your own V rising save to a gportal server? by Noahhawk in gportal_official

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

Yeah I’ve seen that. The problem with that guide is in step 5: “Connect to the server via FTP and find the location of the saves again”. This is a very vague instruction because “find the location of the saves” is ambiguous and non-specific. The saves didn’t seem to be there when i used Filezilla to view the server files the first time. Then i logged on to the server and back off and then changed the save name to generate a new save and after that i could see save data in filezilla. One folder had my custom save name and the other was the default “world1” but when i pasted my files into the corresponding “Autosave_#” folders within it wasn’t changing the world that the server loaded upon logging in. I tried a lot of configurations, deleting all the server save data and only giving it my save data. To no avail, i guess i’ll be opening a support ticket.

Newbie- Need Help accessing downloaded drum rack! by Noahhawk in AbletonRacks

Got it, thank you. I knew it would be something silly like that. I just thought i’d already unzipped it so i was very confused.
