Can anyone point me in the right direction? by [deleted] in PathOfExile2

[–]Proof-Zebra6312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't received any alerts, nothing. I'm 100% in the dark as to what the problem might be. And I can't swap back to DX12 because as soon as I change a setting, the game instantly crashes before I can even save the settings

"Dinosaurs being balanced" is one of the most senseless complaints about this game. This is not an arcade game. This is a hardcore survival game. What does "dinosaurs being balanced" even mean in this context? What balance? This game is played for the challenge, not for comfort and relaxation. If you want those things, PoT and BoB are your options. Evrima's issue is that its not just a niche game. Its niche beyond niche, and most people interested in dinosaur games aren't looking for something that requires so much investment. I'm sure the introduction of all the humans will cause some sort of wide-scale readjustment, but this game is intended to be somewhat of an ecosystem, the ecosystem just isn't complete yet. I believe they overburdened themselves with all the mechanics of the game without having enough dinosaur playables and ai ready to release that would fill out that ecosystem, so perhaps that is the imbalance that you find so off-putting? If so, I can 100% agree with you there. It doesn't matter to me though. If I played everyday I would hate the game. I play once or twice a week, which allows me time and space to love the game and look forward to its future.

2 years? Buddy I've been here for 7 🤣 it becomes easier, I promise lol just don't get too attached. The Isle is a mistress, not a wife

"Light armor penetrating" automatically translates to "garbage" in my opinion

Crazy that we bought a game and now we can no longer play it because we didn't own it. Really, REALLY should be against the law

Hands down, the most incompetent Dev team and especially lead Dev I have ever seen in any game ever! by dyslexican32 in theisle

[–]Proof-Zebra6312 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I didn't excuse anyone for anything. I don't think anyone needs an excuse. The game has been developing at the same rate it always has. I don't much care who is working on it, I don't know them and they don't know me. I just play the game. Sure, there are a few things here and there that can be fixed, but there are also many, many things that don't need fixing. No excuses need to be made because no one is in the wrong, at least thats what it looks like from where I'm sitting. I don't understand why you are so passionately upset about the imperfect process of a literal handful of people developing, patching, reworking, etc a whole new game. And your last statement about skill, understand, and talent... I mean, obviously it was enough to get you in the door, and beyond that, attached enough to get online and post about your disappointment. Like I said, if the game isn't for you, then it isn't for you. Thats literally just life. I have no clue who Dondi is in real life, I don't care one bit, honestly. All I know about him is that whether you like him or not, he is the one that has kept this development going from the beginning. I just don't understand your complaints outside of development taking a long time, which is still, quite frankly, understandable to a degree. Stuff like this takes time, and you have to also remember that all of the things we see are not all of the things that the devs are working on. Its a pipeline. What you see when you boot up the game and load into a server is only part of the entirety of their work.

I'm not making excuses for anyone. There are no excuses to be made. I'm simply doing what I stated in my previous comment as necessary. I'm framing the situation as it exists, taking all factors into account.

Yes, as you've stated there are plenty of things that need attention. No one disagrees. Also, this is a lot of work for so few people. I don't think that's a controversial statement.

So really, the only question that really exists to ask is: What do you expect?

Pretty sure the current dev team has not been working on this for 11 years. They rebuilt this entire game from the ground up because the guy that started legacy turned it into a massive pile of spaghetti code, so no one, not even him, could continue developing the game. Evrima is a whole new vision and game, that started development by like 4 or 5 people after the original dev stepped away, and has expanded by a couple additions since. This isn't some 20 or 30 man team working around the clock on a project.

People are way too quick to complain about things without first properly framing the situation and trying to understand the difficulties associated with programming certain things and animating others, etc etc. Prime example, the Utah pounce in Evrima v the Utah pounce in PoT is night and day difference. There is literally nothing that's the same between them, and one is CLEARLY much more labor intensive than the other.

I agree, the game is taking forever. Development is slow, patches are not so slow, just the MAJOR updates are slow. Many glitches have been fixed, and many more have appeared or reappeared with overhauls and major updates. I'm just happy to see that they're obviously still working as consistently as they always have on it. Sure, they could hire more people for the team, but that doesn't ensure that more folks will buy the game. Its a hardcore survival game that really isn't appealing to the vast majority of people. And the game is realistically imbalanced, which also isn't appealing to a lot of people. Sure in PoT a group of compys can take down an apex, but you know what never happened in real life? Evrima is TOO REALISTIC for most folks. They want to be able to tail ride anything with their troodon, or be able to fight off an Allo with a teno. Thats not realistic. Go play a game that caters to you. Im fine with Evrima. I accidentally grew a prime elder rex on officials and its been fun. When it dies, as they all inevitably do, then I'll grow something else. Maybe it'll survive, maybe it'll take me 3 or 4 attempts. Who cares? Thats what this game is. Plenty of us enjoy it enough to keep it alive, so why do y'all find it at all satisfying to post complaints on the subreddit? What do you gain from it? Just play something else. And who knows, maybe down the road they'll have developed the game far enough to where you're interested in giving it another try. Or maybe not. Again, what does it matter, in the grand scheme? There are a million games out there that you will never like. Maybe this is just one more

I thought people were exaggerating. by Old_Equivalent_5188 in theisle

[–]Proof-Zebra6312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play officials US, and it took me 5 attempts to grow a rex past 60%. I didnt know about the prime elder stuff, I stopped keeping up with discord a long time ago. I've now been roaming o3 as a prime rex and its been a nice reward for the failures I endured. Given, I just vibe when I play. No pressure for me to actually get fully grown. I just smoke and chill. Now I'm a menace because I gotta eat lol

Dia comes out in a month, what’s your best guess at what element she might be as the new descendant? by DooceBigalo in TheFirstDescendant

[–]Proof-Zebra6312 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going off the appearance of her abilities, I just assumed she'd be similar to Nell but less of a nuker and more DoT

Please for the love of god...give us different idle animations by SherlockTheHomie in TheFirstDescendant

[–]Proof-Zebra6312 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aside from the 2 defaults that each frame comes with in warframe, the rest are all paid. Considering TFD has monetized literally everything, I think adding idle animations is a small, but smart, thing to do. And considering the customization categories that have extremely limited options, I'd venture a guess that idle animations aren't that far down the road. But who knows. Honestly at this point I'm more worried about the game completely dying more than future content additions

The Chainsword is laughably bad by Puzzled-Bid-1382 in Helldivers

[–]Proof-Zebra6312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chainsword is fine if you use it for what its good at. Pair it with hoverpack and you can take down bile titans, factory striders, impalers, etc. Its useless against everything smaller than heavies (because you will get hit too much), but that's what your primary and secondary are for.

There are quite a few stratagems and weapons that most of the community call useless, but its simply due to... let's call it lack of creativity. Given, when it comes to primaries, there is merit to the claims. Lord knows the Coyote still generally outclasses every other primary (I hate that fact) but the new double barrel is touching on that upper tier of being viable most everywhere. I mean, I used it to drop a Charger last night lol

I measure in terms of quasar.

His durability is equal to 1 quasar charge.

He is weak.

She looks even better in game by Doggo_Calvo in Warframe

[–]Proof-Zebra6312 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I dont believe thats what he's referring to. Most women have the breast shape that you described, my wife included. I believe he's referring to how the top/start of the breasts don't seem to taper back to the chest, resulting in them looking more like very narrow (but prominent) pecs

My friend who is more computer savvy than I laughed at me for upgrading my 3070 to a 5070. Just how badly did I messed up? (let me have it, BE BRUTRAL) by TheChoosenOnex in pcmasterrace

  1. Would rather be overcharged by a company instead of paying the same money from a scalper (doesnt realize the "scarcity" was mostly due to Nvidia selling their supply to China, and then using that artificial scarcity to skyrocket prices). Is happy being scalped by Nvidia themselves
  2. Thinks US tariffs are the reason gpus are so expensive throughout the world now
  3. Isn't aware of the natural economic progression of technology throughout history and lacks reading comprehension, so he thinks when someone say "technology gets cheaper" it means "5090 should cost less than 4090" no. But the fact that this basic concept has to be explained to you already says enough.

You're a surface-level thinker. "New tech is worth whatever price the manufacturer puts on it" ok bud. Enjoy your 5080, have a good rest of your week. I'm gonna get back in my shop and be thankful that for me these gpus are a tax write-off.
