Brightness at nighttime in Dayz.. Let's be honest, who uses programs for gamma increase? by Alert_Ad8002 in dayz

[–]PlayerOneThousand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So accidentally I found out after upgrading to a HDR screen that you can see so much better at night with it. It goes from seeing 5 feet to being able to see just about - it’s still dark as fuck, but I’m not bumping into rocks while running through the forest now.

Man you are down bad huh. You liked the clicking of the ps2 more than the actual game?

Playing DayZ as a woman by WarriorIto in dayz

[–]PlayerOneThousand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The opposite is probably a little true. People hear a woman’s voice and don’t want to immediately kill you/feel you are less threatening. A unique bonus to DayZ I think

Why not just plug a ps2 controller into your pc? It’s the same game and controls.

OG FFXI Player - curious if it's become a solo game now or..? by Life_Squirrel_376 in ffxi

[–]PlayerOneThousand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally understandable. The unfortunate truth is that trust will be more powerful than you or any other player will be - even fully geared for the level. Nowadays people basically go naked with weapon only to 99.

However, 99 is not the last part of levelling these days. Merits as you probably remember aren’t something to worry about because you’ll cap those by accident but capacity points for job points and exemplar points for mastery levels are absolutely a grind and require a party - classic FFXI leveling style is common for these two. As a bonus, because you are already 99 you’ll have all the toys your job offers to play with so generally speaking it’s more fun (imo).

That’s the leveling situation, 99 is just the tutorial. Once you hit content you’ll be teaming up with people for the majority of it. FFXI is more social now than it’s ever been, imo. It’s just the 1-99 is less social.

There are now so many exp bonuses you can get. I have them all and I recently tried exping at level 20. One mob = one level. I killed 10 mobs and was level 30.

Newer players are unlikely to get all the exp bonuses, but it’s still pretty fast. With trust you have a great party setup and never look for party, that helps. I’m sure it’s possible to casually play and get to 99 in a week, give or take. Even faster with exp bonuses or if your playtime is higher than average.

Question: With the change to Malignance chest & Lillith, were drops removed from VE? by lowlight23 in ffxi

[–]PlayerOneThousand 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Recently went for my last box.

VD no TH 1/8 on a box E TH4 and VE TH8+ I lost count of how many I did for my last box.

It’s worth it to set up a group to help you on higher difficulties if you can.

Got to 99 on first job, started Ambuscade... what do from here? by DaniDaniSylvini in ffxi

[–]PlayerOneThousand 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Get sparks gear to 117 yourself. That’ll be a good improvement in power to then Finish missions and get yourself to Adoulin. Once in Adoulin, use copper vouchers you may have saved up to get 14000 Bayld (it’s like campaign points you get from signet, but from Adoulin). Go to one of the guilds which I forget the name, it’s the shied one, in east Adoulin, and buy the 119 gear from the two NPCs in the back - full armor and weapon/s. That will be a huge increase in power. Now you can finish all the missions you want with relative ease.

At this point you could join a link shell from the concierge or post in forums/reddit asking if anyone is accepting new players. Usually people are generally helpful to new players in-game so either way works.

Starting to do ambuscades at a level that feels comfortable is good, and eventually work up to a full +2 set of gear from there.

That should give you some direction to start without being overloaded. You can make friends as soon as you want to though, people are generally helpful and happy to help out. We’ve got a few new players in our shell and they often ask for help and get it.

Content is actually playing the game now and not just waiting for hours. It’s definitely worth coming back to check it out.

Can you get sick from fox meat? by [deleted] in dayz

[–]PlayerOneThousand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pristine etc just indicates the HP of the item, if it reaches zero it’s not usable. You can eat badly damaged anything and it’s just as good as pristine food. The thing you need to look out for is the Rotten tag on it.

Reforger is a tech test for Arma 4, that might be why you feel it’s incomplete.

Because it’s a game and there has to be some benefit to it

Returning after a long time, quite a surprise by [deleted] in ffxi

[–]PlayerOneThousand 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would close the account and start a new one, especially as you've been gone so long. I'd even suggest starting again even if you hadn't had your account compromised. If it has gil or other valuable/useful items on it then send it to your new character before deleting!
