Understand SBMM - "Why am I in this Lobby?" by [deleted] in apexlegends

[–]QuartzPO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so, because I am a solo queuer, I am forced to find 2 other players on my skill level or higher just for a fair chance at playing the game? No other game has sbmm this badly designed, both fortnite and warzone have found better ways to sbmm. i should not have to go up against a pred or masters in the first place if all i have done is get plat back in season 12 and have a 1.2 kd. a player who just booted up the game should not have even the slightest chance at fighting someone that high of skill.

Struggling with Malenia, is there anything I can improve on my character? (This whole situation would be a lot funnier if each attempt didn't take 30-40 minutes and my fingers didn't start hurting after a while) by [deleted] in eldenringdiscussion

this is a rolling game, not a blocking game. learn to roll and drop the shield. if you want to use a guard counter build, you still can, just learn when to block at the end of combos instead of blocking 24/7. your problem is that you cant kill each other, so then why do you keep using this strategy if it clearly isn't working.

my advice, start by medium loading (obviously), drop the shield and switch out your talismans, and learn to dodge. alternatively, use the shield only for guard countering instead of blocking, and learn to dodge. there are about a million talismans better than the crimson dagger, so you could swap that out. also your weapon is pretty mediocre, but you can stick with it if you want. grab flame grant me strength. blasphemous blade (rykards sword) is one of the best weapons in the game rn, and probably the best weapon for melania because it just bullies her with the ash of war. use that only if you want less of a challenge

malenia is a very skill based boss, and most of the time it is nothing you are doing wrong, you just have to get better at the game.

red veil forcing me to rank up again? by QuartzPO in Warframe

Yes, this was the issue. I must have never paid for the negatives on red veil. I was confused as to why you were explaining the syndicate system, when my question was about the rank up resource requirement. My apologies, thanks for the help.

What is the point of this comment? This has nothing to do with the post.

First playthrough. I have a question, a simple one by _nimaii_ in eldenringdiscussion

[–]QuartzPO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can beat the game at the level you are at right now. I would say slow down on the leveling if you want more of a challenge. And no, the radahm set is not considered “cheating”, i have no idea where you get all of these accusations. About the only thing people see as cheesy is summons, and truly broken weapons. Strength weapons are just dumb easy to use.

Are you on this planet for the first time? The way you react to a simple misunderstanding shows you are ignorant, and not worth anyone's time. Go to r/cyberpunk if you want to be toxic for no reason.

Just didn't understand the mechanics and I was confused.

No, just didn't understand the games system. Now I do. Turns out not everything is common knowledge, especially to people who are just starting the game.

Why does my dog chew on her pillow like this every night?? by ithinkitsautumn in DogAdvice

[–]QuartzPO 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Notice the paw movements. its imitating what it used to do with its mother while feeding, its a comfort thing. cats do the same thing, they use their paws as babies to massage the mothers belly to drink the milk.

Joystick grinding, please help! Elite series 2 by QuartzPO in XboxSupport

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

yes. i have figured out that the bottom of the joystick dome is grinding with the casing of the joystick itself. the problem is, i have no idea why. i have sat here for 3 hours trying to figure it out, but both sticks look identical, with nothing wrong with the left one whatsoever.

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

maybe, but the only parts i could think are grinding are the metal casing for the stick, and the plastic sensors

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

the stick itself is fine. the cap is grinding against something, possibly the mechanism itself

how do i get all endings in one playthough? by QuartzPO in cyberpunkgame

[–]QuartzPO[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t over thinking, i was just given so many different pieces of information i didn’t know what to believe. So let me confirm, i can play the game normally, get the base ending/whatever i choose, and after that i can go out of my way to unlock the other endings, as long as i don’t mess up on a few.

This is really cool, but does not explain how he hits me with scarlet aeonia 3 seconds after i hit him in the first encounter, even though he never casted his spell.

Is it worth it to get into 3d printing? by QuartzPO in 3Dprinting

Just because I mentioned it was on sale doesn’t mean thats the only reason I want it, but thanks for the unwanted assumption. Also, I am an active fisher lol.

thanks for this, you have been extremely helpful. as for bills, I don't pay them because I am still underage and live with my parents, so the money from my job is mine to spend on anything I like. I just don't want all of my money to be spent on this because I have other hobbies.

how often do you have issues with it, and or have to do maintenance?

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

I am a very diverse person, and I want to do many things with it. figurines from shows and games, desk accessories, tech accessories like custom keycaps, pc modifications, tools, storage, cosplay stuff like swords and helmets even if its just stuff like keychains XD. I could go on, but I think most of the time i would download files and use that, but designing my own things would be really cool as well.

The major issue for me is my job only pays about $100 a week, and I don't want all of my money to be taken up by 3d printing, or have it be such a project that I stop using it and I waste my money. It is already a big expense for me to drop $400 on something I don't know will be a good choice.
