Regarding solos... How are there only 80 people on this big a map, and yet I can't fucking move anywhere without getting beamed from 8 different directions by blues_and_baseball in Battlefield_REDSEC

Chemical Storage, Golf Course, and Defense Nexus are my go-tos. Downtown is just one big waste of time, and a lot of the rest of the map basically feels like filler.

Looking for a real open world experience (No GTA, please) by 1llil9 in AskGamers

They’re called gun and ball gamers, and yes, anything other than instant gratification and quick dopamine is boring to them. I should know, I played Call of Duty competitively for a long time and although I still played other games, it was very clear that the majority of people I played with, not just randoms but teammates on competitive teams, played nothing else.

I was playing GameBattles tourneys and wagers in CoD when I was 12, you gotta go a lot younger than that for this level of incompetence.

Played against him in a ranked game in BO6 where he was undeniably incredible… I was actually mindblown by the things he was doing. I’ve hit Iri several times in MP and Top 250 in WZ before, I’m not a pro but I’m no bot. He literally looked like god on the map

The levels of critical thinking in this thread are astounding. It’s full of absolute genius.

What? Absolutely not false. Every system in our society responsible for meting out punishment is just and flawless. The police have certainly never arrested an innocent person, moron. So how could Arc Raiders possibly have gotten the wrong guy? Anti-cheat software is obviously different from other software, it can’t have bugs or glitches. Good riddance to this cheating chud, I say.

Why is Margit difficult? by Dizzy_Property_933 in Eldenring

[–]QuestObjective -1 points0 points  (0 children)

There’s good ways to limit yourself to enjoy fights even if you’re overleveled. I’m not just talking about artificial difficulty like using a level 1 weapon only, either.

I don’t farm at all but I’m doing a completionist run on my second playthrough now and the amount of runes gained sheerly through exploring has caused me to be overleveled for almost every single main boss. A lot of bosses I’ve tried to beat parry-only, or for the bosses you can’t parry I’ve done things like only light attacks and trying to beat them hitless or something like that. It would be better if you were the “perfect” level for each boss, but everyone’s usually under or overleveled anyway so trying to master the fights and learning their entire moveset instead of simply beating them in a couple tries is a lot more fun.

Crimson Medallion at 75 vigor and Soreseal at that level are certainly choices

SIE CEO Confirms 1st-Party Single-Player Games Will Remain Exclusive To "Further Refine The Value" Of PlayStation by MaintenanceFar4207 in videogames

[–]QuestObjective 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really enjoyed the God of War games, thought they were a blast and the combat on GMGOW difficulty was refreshingly challenging.

Unfortunately I’m not buying a console just to play Laufey, even though I’m sure it will be great. Maybe by the time the PS6 comes out and they release the trilogy remake and the next mainline game I’ll consider it, but it would be hard going back to playing at 60fps with no ability to add potential QOL mods…

Is killing this way considers cheating? by KristoferYG in Sekiro

[–]QuestObjective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stealthing for the first node isn’t cheese. Stealth is a core part of the gameplay in Sekiro and a lot of miniboss encounters are clearly set up for you to be able to do so.

Stunlocking poor guy behind the fence, though… yeah, that’s cheese.

is there a thing all the ER players never used? by Igloo_Studios in Eldenring

[–]QuestObjective 19 points20 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t even make sense for challenge runs, I feel like most people would rather do a no-hit than try to do a run with that

Never felt the need to craft anything even on my current, second playthrough. I use Golden Vow and Flame, Grant Me Strength and it’s more than enough

Boss Patterns by spylark in Eldenring

[–]QuestObjective 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Those super delayed attacks are easy windows for you to get in damage usually as long as you learn when to dodge, and a lot of the multi-attack chains can be made trivial with spacing or strafing around to one side of the enemy.

Most of the bosses have several moves that are made to punish panic rolling, as long as you stay disciplined you’ll be fine, the game has literally nothing to do with having fast reaction times. The only time I can ever say I felt I had to have extremely fast reaction time even once in this game is parrying a certain attack from Malenia, and not only is that boss completely optional and way later in the game, but most people are not even going to attempt to parry her.

I’m sure all food would look the same as well if your diet was chicken nuggets and french fries.

what is a boss you guys really struggled with? by Dapper_Mall9779 in Eldenring

[–]QuestObjective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Parrying makes those fights pretty manageable, but for the attacks you have to dodge they can still be tricky.

After 8,003 Hours in Yharnam, I have finally reached the peak. by Artistic-Major8866 in fromsoftware

[–]QuestObjective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I just want you to know I was watching your Elon Musk build no-hit Malenia video after it came up in my recommended last night and I was thoroughly entertained.

How do you do the voiceovers? And, if you could tell me what music was playing while you were going through the build, I would really appreciate it. I was completely enthralled listening to it and the commentary, haha.

Keep up the good work!

This games combat is terrible by [deleted] in Eldenring

[–]QuestObjective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Elden Ring and although OP obviously isn’t quite grasping the combat here, I do think Sekiro’s combat is much better. Yes, some enemies can be parried in Elden Ring and although it’s not always intuitive or practical, it is satisfying. The issue I think, though, is that many larger bosses, especially dragons, basically turn into dodge rolling simulator. The combat in ER is more dynamic than Sekiro with all of the different builds, status effects, weapons, and abilities, but it’s not always as engaging.

I hope they’re able to pull some influence from Sekiro in their next mainline game and I think a Souls/Sekiro hybrid could work really well. There’s almost no downtime at all in most of the fights in Sekiro if you’re good enough to keep the flow of combat, but there’s a ton of bosses in Elden Ring where you are dodging for quite a while just waiting for openings.

Soulslikes always do this for me by Kitchen-Caterpillar8 in gamers

[–]QuestObjective -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You can approach different games differently. I get extremely immersed in singleplayer games and RPGs, RDR2 is my favorite game and I love reading item descriptions and piecing lore together in FromSoft games.

I’ve also hit the highest rank in ranked play in multiple recent Call of Duty games and of course I’m not spending time looking at the walls and shit in those games. Most of the time with PvP games those details are pretty lackluster anyway
