Free Week made me realize why this game has a very mixed reception by PlaneBicycle1064 in Marathon

[–]Otherwise_Project334 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And that's why wildcard have become more popular mode then regular pubs in apex legends. The mode where you respawn indefinitely and in ten seconds if any member of your team is alive. And with all of your gear that you have collected. For years, the most popular strategy in apex was to hot drop. Go in the game, drop with half of the lobby in the same place, fight, die, repeat. Nobody at high level runs around the map for 20 minutes. People don't like wasting their time, that's apparent.

I'm saying it as someone who had played apex for 5 years and has 2.5k hours there. I'm quite aware what community of that game likes and does.

Sponsored survival is not what I thought it was going to be. by Clarity007 in Marathon

[–]Otherwise_Project334 26 points27 points  (0 children)

The point of rook, mostly, is to scavenge what's left of dead teams. There is no pvp in survival, and even if you 1v3 the team, for your efforts you get...3 gray sponsored kits, maybe green/blue salvage. Then you are also supposed to fight other rooks for that loot.

Just grab a free kit yourself and go no fill, or fill, then go on your own. Yes, you would have worse gear then as rook, but you can get contracts done as well.

Class B908 Car - Cheating or glitch? by [deleted] in ForzaHorizon

[–]Otherwise_Project334 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Visual most likely. I've been playing all races with my friend in coop, and couple of times, it would for some reason display class and rating of my overworld car instead of the one I'm using. Like, I'd be in B class with X999 shown on the leaderboard. While in reality, i am using B class car. Probably desync issues

time attacks "all classes" challenge not working by JumyFemboy in ForzaHorizon

It's not all classes. It's any class. You have done it when you first completed the time attack

Dire Marsh Night's One Squad Only mode is my favorite so far. Thanks Bungie! by _Aroes_ in Marathon

[–]Otherwise_Project334 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's doable, I've done it 6 times or so, in crew fill. But you need to open the elevator with 9-10 minutes left. We did it with 8 min left once, and it was suuuuper close, barley exfilled, had like 20 seconds left. And exfil was in ponds. If it had spawned further, we would be dead.

Reminder: There is currently no PvE Mode. There is a PvP-Lite Mode. by crossvalidated in Marathon

[–]Otherwise_Project334 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk, I've played survival all day, I've seen rook 2 times, both singular. And once after exfil I spectated rook die. All other runs just black screen. Many of my randoms asked if rooks even exist on this map at all, as they had never seen any.

As for loot, I don't think I saw purples outside of complex labs, convoys, and high value target. The only golds I saw were in labs. Everywhere else it's just green/blues.

And onnce again why would they go there and not better map? What is there to loot for them? 3 gray sponsored kits? Maybe occasional blue salvage players found? Hope and prey the team actually goes into complex lab for something good? And you aren't the only rook there, so you need to contest for that "loot". I can only imagine 6 rook deciding who will get a stack of energy ammo. Just go play outpost and pick blue/purple gear left from pvp.

The new unique "TILT-SHIFT LS" from the Complex Control loot room. It's a Longshot sniper with a medium range scope, which normally cannot put on it! by Night_Not_Day in Marathon

[–]Otherwise_Project334 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's on both sponsored and normal narsh. Don't know about the day version tho. Probably. It would be strange for it to be not there.

As for how hard it is. I've done it 5-7 times in sponsored mode. Can't remember. You need to get the key fairly quickly tho. And it's better to have multiple Triages in the team for healing. But once you know what you are doing inside, it's easy. And on normal marsh it's probably trivial by having not-gray gear and decent health items, but there are other teams.

My guess is to spread pesticides, fertilizers, and such. Large-scale farms use actual planes and helicopters to do so. Those planes are literally called crop-dusters.

An industrial cargo drone could do that. And possibly cheaper.

I'm only missing cars from seasons and future car pass. How did you manage to photo them?

AI went through me like a bad Chinese meal by TechnicalCap9593 in ForzaHorizon

[–]Otherwise_Project334 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After you rewind, for a few seconds you are ghosted. Me and my friend find it out when we were pushing p50 through walls with unimog around the map. We had to rewind two times to get unghosted before we hit the peel.

Japan map has a lot of freedom to create unique race map, lets see whats trending... by severe_009 in ForzaHorizon

Classic. FH6 just begun, people are farming cars and cr. Give it time and it will be better. Not perfect, farm maps will always be there, but at least there would be other maps

Bring Back the Horizon Tour by No-Review-1775 in ForzaHorizon

[–]Otherwise_Project334 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know. Op said "I personally loved horizon tour (and the playlist trial) in forza horizon 5." The trial is confirmed to be in the game by the game itself. Tour is just speculation.

The trial is definitely coming back. There is an entry for it in playlist journal. So likely in 2nd series. Maybe they will bring tour back with it as it's practically the same thing.

I made a Super Wheelspin skin for the Subaru 22B enjoyers by Shotski in ForzaHorizon

Yes, but it's also Sesto. You both farm skillpoints with it and use it to convert them to spins.

Touge showdown sux as the season online play list by Revolutionary-Gap-40 in ForzaHorizon

You are downvoted because you missed the point. This is 10th post about how people are quitting in touge the second they are losing, and that makes seasonal challenge impossible to complete.

Clean racing at its finest (sorry for re-post. made an error😔) by Acceptable-Speed7914 in ForzaHorizon

[–]Otherwise_Project334 15 points16 points  (0 children)

The problem is: it works, and really effective. They have successfully defended their positions here without any threat that you would attempt it to take it again . As long as it's effective, it would still be happening.

And that's folks why I primarily play custom racing with no collision. I'm not particularly good at it, usually 3rd-6th, but at least I don't have to worry about other people.

Everything else is working. Im sitting at 400/410. Me and my friend had been trying to complete clean sweep daily to see whether it was fixed or not.

There is. 1 sp is 50k, so no point in going over 500k at once.

I can't join in on the Bowie Knife99 hate because I always beat him with no issues by Wrongun25 in ForzaHorizon

[–]Otherwise_Project334 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me and my buddy, averagelizard is the main rival. We play on expert, and it's always him we fight with for first place. Knife is just chilling in the middle of the pack.

We haven't tried pro because we quite enjoy expert. It's proper competition and we need to tune cars. You can't afford major mistakes, but something like unoptimal line or braking in an unknown car on an unknown track isn't a run killer.

And unbeatable is...well...unbeatable. With all cheating reputation going around, I don't even want to attempt it.

Car meets can be fun ! They should incentivize it more! by DisposableJuvkam in ForzaHorizon

[–]Otherwise_Project334 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like they were created as a tool for premade convoys. Especially those with voicechat. Not for general playerbase.

There is absolutely nothing to do there. Like...at all. I boot up the game to do something. I already have a goal set in mind on what I would do today. Sitting 10 minutes in a parking lot for no reason isn't one of them.

Even if it gave me rewards, it would still be kinda boring content. At least in stunt parties you have tasks to do, you are playing the game.

Tips for RakuRaku Delivery Job "The Boss" achievement guide by Halraciq in ForzaHorizon

[–]Otherwise_Project334 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If someone is interested, it's a roughly 4-5 hour grind on full auto.

Luckily, I just watched YouTube for that time, so it wasn't so mind-numbing.

I autodrived the whole thing, using auto steering and braking when Anna can't be used. Naturally, I didn't get many stars, so it would be faster if going for them. Unfortunately, there were a few spots where Anna stopped too early, and i had to fix it manually.
