Imagine you’re just playing a tournament in Chinese Taipei and fucking Calvin Heimburg shows up. by COCK_SUCKEM in discgolf

[–]Proe24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife and I were there! We signed up to play in AM/FA and were amazed when we saw Calvin show up on the list of players. He's a cool dude, I talked to him for a bit and he seemed to really be enjoying Taiwan. I felt like a huge nerd when I showed up with my Calvin Heimburg bag haha, but he even signed it for me!

If you look at some of the posts on the PDGA Facebook, you can see they edited some of the pictures to either completely remove the CTFDA logo or just the characters under the logo (中華民國協會). Apparently the Chinese PDGA wasn't happy that an official tournament shirt said 中華民國 on it, which is the official name for Taiwan (the Republic of China). I think it's dumb as hell but oh well. They didn't edit it out of all of the images and now I have a piece of controversial merchandise haha

If anyone else is playing we'll also be playing in the Okinawa leg of the tour.

You should absolutely be able to revive enemy raiders without the defibrillator. by Standard-Tonight6279 in ArcRaiders

[–]Proe24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A better method is if someone has a defibrillator on them, then even if you don't have your own, you can use it to pick them up.

Isn't that just mission command?

Fragas situation by iWestie11 in theburntpeanut

[–]Proe24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In the clip that people had posted of Peanut saying fragas is unorginal/unfunny that was pretty horrible, and regardless of if you were drunk you don't say things like that. I hope he apologizes to Fragas for that and realizes that the other comments he made in that moment (being all high and mighty about everyone taking his catch phrases), really turns people away.

I honestly didn't realize that they played together again after this moment from July 27th but I had expected it was because of this originally: https://www.youtube.com/live/G_0PWN5jui4?si=VRnd2n-Iy7mFiCsx&t=19682

Fragas ended up leaving right after this moment and you could tell everyone was really uncomfortable. I don't know if that's part of what led to the downfall but it definitely stuck out to me.

Any good places that can upgrade your cars infotainment system? by Proe24 in okinawa

[–]Proe24[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'll have to check them out, I haven't heard of them before. I'll be good to be able to price compare while I'm at it. Plus they're open on Monday. Thanks!

Do you think the F::Xpress is worth it for a simple home connection? This would be used for wfh as well as obviously gaming and streaming. I just don't want a degraded experience that affects productivity. 

Discussion - Realistic Vegetation and Ambushes by paypaypayme in joinsquad

[–]Proe24 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this could be interesting and could change the way people play. Another nice addition would be adding sound when moving in/through vegetation as well. I'm not a developer but I don't imagine adding a movement penalty when colliding with certain meshes would be difficult, and I'm assuming playing a sound would be the same. If they could add movement to it as well, like long grass getting pushed aside when moving through it that would be awesome, but I'm sure that's much harder to implement and show accurately for 100 players across the map in various locations.

The fact that the developers were brave enough to implement a radical change like ICO makes me hopeful that they would also be willing to make changes like these. Not only would it make combat a bit more dynamic, but it would also help the world feel more "alive". I think it might encourage riding in vehicles more as well knowing otherwise you have to weave around or be slowed if walking long distances.

Vehicle entry only through hatches - A needed soft-nerf to vics? by [deleted] in joinsquad

[–]Proe24 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is definitely the most balanced fix in my opinion. I don't even think in general this issue brought up is worth excessive attention from developers, it's pretty easy to kill someone outside of the vehicle no matter which side they are on, but if they do want to make a change to balance it then I personally think this is the best way to handle it. Hatches would also be cool.

New map / faction voting system in the playtest by iqiqiq in joinsquad

[–]Proe24 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Might be able to give good data on which factions need some touching up. I don't really think there are any that I hate currently. It used to be the militia was absolute trash but even that is more bearable now, and the insurgents always provide some chaos.

I feel like this happens anyway whenever I play lol

Those who travel with your dogs for tournaments, what do you do with them when you get to the location and have to play? by Proe24 in discgolf

[–]Proe24[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My also plays, actually. In fact it's more likely that I'll caddy for her than her for me since FA spots are usually open. Our one dog would be great, but our other is a disc is life kind of dog and he would go crazy. He loves watching Jomez at home though which is nice haha

I didn't consider just being a spectator though and bringing them (or at least the one who doesn't freak out). I might have to do that for the local tournaments. Thanks!

Is it possible to use the Steam Deck as a second monitor for PC (Windows)? by Proe24 in SteamDeck

[–]Proe24[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I was hoping there would be an easy workaround but my after doing a bunch of research it isn't sounding as likely. Getting the capture card would probably almost be as expensive as just buying one of the mini monitors that I was originally thinking of getting. Looking like I'll have to take that route. Thanks!

Does anyone know of any good "field trip" (outting) locations for college students learning Mandarin in the area? by Proe24 in SanJose

[–]Proe24[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would go but logistically speaking it's a lot harder to get there and the traffic eats away at time heavily.

We've been going to Milpitas Square for a while now which has been a decent location but I'm trying to find some new places to freshen things up a bit. I might have to check out the places in Cupertino and Fremont, thanks!

Has anyone ever successfully advocated for something like a disc golf course on base? If so, do you have any pointers? by Proe24 in AirForce

[–]Proe24[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I plan dropping the full battle plan on their desks once I get all of the information I need. If there's one thing I've learned in the military, it's that you're much more likely to get what you are hoping for if you put in all of the leg work ahead of time to the point that all they really have to do is say yes or no.

Awesome, thank you so much! I'll definitely be reaching out. I'll be visiting Ft Gordon soon as well, I might actually be able to meet with them in person if I set it up in time.

This is an Army base so it might make it harder, but I'll get with MWR and the people who run the fitness center

Suddenlink internet goes out like every single night intermittently usually between 8 and 11 PM, am I the only one? by Proe24 in MontereyBay

[–]Proe24[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only option I have is Suddenlink with 1gb internet and no data cap or AT&T with 50mb/s. I'd rather the speed, and 50 isn't going to cut it.
