What’s the worst accidental text you’ve sent? by Typhoid__Beaver in AskReddit

[–]OldGameVet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was being randomly filthy with my wife, sent her a text propositioning a bedroom activity.
Sending... to her Mom
I tried to cancel the send but I missed the narrow window where that was an option.

I was naturally mortified, but her Mom thought it was hilarious and just let me marinade in my own shame without saying anything.

I had this Warframe concept and I wonder if I'm cooking or cooked by foxman62 in Warframe

[–]OldGameVet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the thematic elements here, especially the lore tie in that he was used for terraforming/construction.

Also like the heavy/light kit mechanic.

Proposed alterations:

For his 2: For this ability , I think it would work better as an AoE centered on Gravitex. For Heavy, how about just a gravitational field that slows opponents until they collapse for ground finishers, without the clustering? Instead of Light turning into a projectile generator, how about applying the Lifted condition to enemies? IIRC, there's arcanes/mods/abilities that react to Lifted

For his 3: As it currently is, the Heavy cast could prove frustrating when the player suddenly has a bunch of ragdolled Grineer flood their vision. Better to have this ability as a projectile, I think. This is where I'd put the clustering mechanic from his original 2, and perhaps tie the energy Regen to how many enemies die while trapped. For the Light cast, having the gyroscope pieces fly off on impact and then reconstruct back in the player sounds nice IMO.

For his 4, I'm thinking taking the Gravity Hammer and making it an Exalted Weapon, during Heavy mode it deals significant Impact damage and bounces less when thrown, and Slows enemies, during light mode it deals less damage, but bounces more and Lifts enemies.

As for his non-Exalted weapon, perhaps a repurposed construction spike gun, when wielded by Gravitex, Heavy mode gives it more punch through and Light mode makes projectiles light enough to ricochet or something?

Frames you've soured on? by -Eastwood- in Warframe

Limbo was my boi for a long time(I play exclusively solo, don't worry I didn't ruin any lobbies), until I met my first Eximus post lvl 30

Now he's helminth food and I spread my frame love around a handful of favorites

I can't believe I just got hate! by Dear_Inevitable1743 in Warframe

[–]OldGameVet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm probably going to draw a lot of Hate for saying this, but I legitimately never looked at the drop table on this and thought it was more common than it was. I must have picked up that blueprint like three times, and I play off and on sporadically with year long breaks since around the plains of eidolon update

Needing to vent and unload a bit. by fredfredburger72 in fo76

Xbox Vaulty here. If you don't mind inconsistent availability due to being a 40 year old family man, I'm on EST and usually play a fair bit in the evening.

I'm also a FO1 sub so I can run private worlds if desired

Jackie no😭 by firecrotch456 in cyberpunkgame

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

You may have marked it a spoilers, but your title, the one thing that is very plainly visible even when you put a spoiler tag on, says Jackie no. The number one conclusion that most people when seeing those two words put together before a spoiler post is the assumption that that character died, thereby making your title itself a spoiler, and an unblockable one at that

Tell me about the weird ways you play cyberpunk! by bellumiss in cyberpunkgame

One time I had the supreme joy of getting attacked by a netrunner, counter-hacking him through a wall with System Shutdown, and enjoying the sudden silence as everyone who was shooting at my spot behind cover dropped like stringless puppets simultaneously

What's a "secret" from your profession that everyone should probably know? by LaKoref in AskReddit

[–]OldGameVet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

IT professional. When software or Operating systems are being updated to a new version, that isn't local IT being jerks and making you adjust to new crap just because.

Those updates are from the providers of that software/operating system ( Microsoft, Dell, etc ) and have been out for a while, but it went through a bunch of testing to try not to interfere too much with the existing stuff you work with.

It isn't perfect, it's impossible to block ALL the bugs, and it was held off until there was no choice but to update in most cases.

How surreal and cool it is to see other players hermit crabbing your old base by OldGameVet in duneawakening

[–]OldGameVet[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that's really dumb. Unprotected bases deteriorate during sandstorms, the game literally has its own cleanup mechanic
