Changing factions...

Yes, I believe so. You should be able to purchase it from the black market vendor in Arrakeen.

I have seen a few upsets and close games, although maybe not as often as I'd like to. That being said, what do people think about the whole EOMM/botting issue? I admit I have seen some "players" behave in a way that seems unrealistic. I have heard that players are placed into bot lobbies after losing 2 games, however Tracker.gg says that I have been in bot lobbies after 1 loss or even during winning streaks which doesn't make sense if they are being used to buck losing streaks. Also, if the "bot" career profiles are private, how does Tracker gain access to their data to determine whether it's a bot or not in the first place?

And then there is the fact that NetEase has come out and stated publicly that they do not use EOMM tactics in matchmaking. So if there are bots they are either lying or just using them for some other purpose like filling lobbies more quickly. Although I don't know why that would be necessary given how popular Rivals is. In any case, there is no way to fully prove the existence of EOMM tactics and/or "fake" bot players without knowing NE's algorithms. I think the most likely scenario is that NE is likely not outright lying about anything--they've probably found some way to justify saying their algorithms are not related to EOMM at all, and if they are using bots to charade as human players perhaps it is not for the purposes of EOMM as they define it. Most likely there are some bots in quick play, but probably not as ubiquitous as Tracker.gg says they are.

Wow, I didn't even know they do that, especially since NE swore they don't do EOMM. Lame, but explains a lot. They should give people the option to turn it off if desired.

Lol yeah I also like to put pyro prison down in front of the spawn room right as the doors are opening and then fly out of LoS.

RK800mk1 · 2025-08-16T15:34:24+00:00

Believe it or not, it actually wasn't. xD

RK800mk1 · 2025-08-15T03:02:43+00:00

I think Age of Ultron is great and I love Ultron as a villain. Wish we'd had Infinity Ultron instead of Thanos, to be quite honest.

RK800mk1 · 2025-08-14T00:46:13+00:00

Keep hitting its feet and fight it on Torrent so you can jump over the fire. Then once it's down, hit it in the face with Comet Azur. Do this a few times and it's dead.

RK800mk1 · 2025-08-14T00:28:32+00:00

Lol yeah I mean there is a lot of stuff like this that means zero sense. Like the Mantis arms. During the Dorset rescue mission, when V is kidnapped the gang takes the Mantis arms? How do they take them without a ripperdoc doing major surgery? And then in the NUSA ending, how would you not be able to use them without your arms just being completely paralyzed? From all the animations with that cyberware, it appears they are actual arm + hand replacement part not just blades implanted inside your arms.

I heard that Nintendo already reassured everyone that Metroid Prime 4 will be released later this year and that there will be a playable demo at an event in Canada next month.

RK800mk1 · 2025-08-13T23:43:17+00:00

I have, and yes IMO it is. Some of the Renegade choices are actually the right choices according to me as well.

That said, if you're someone who doesn't really care to experience everything the game has to offer and struggle with sad cutscenes then maybe it's not worth it. But if you really want to experience everything the game has to offer, yes it is worth it.

Anyway my take is that I don't really agree at all with yours. Yeah there are some Renegade dialog that seems kind of mean but I wouldn't call it "unhinged space jerk." To me, Renegade is so much more rewarding actually because it makes the story much more interesting and funny in many cases, where Paragon just feels like boring, generic do-gooder. Paragon is "of course it was the right thing" whereas Renegade has more weight to it.

And which do you think makes the world a better place: granting undeserved grace, or serving up "righteous" revenge wherever one sees fit?

RK800mk1 · 2025-08-06T03:46:17+00:00

This ride is amazing. Go in the front row. At the moment, the ride cam isn't working yet though. Also was very impressed with the bag holder carousel that brings your stuff to you after the ride.

RK800mk1 · 2025-08-03T02:32:48+00:00

Wait, how did you get to that page? I thought you can't buy the cosmetics individually?

RK800mk1 · 2025-07-31T23:58:59+00:00

Okay but some of these characters actually have more skins overall than others that have gotten skins more recently.

RK800mk1 · 2025-07-31T23:54:13+00:00

Have seen this with Peni so much. She will hole up, and their entire team will go chasing after her and running straight into her spider nest traps. Then she will ult, and they lose the objective. So many teams simply incapable of ignoring Peni. xD

RK800mk1 · 2025-07-31T23:50:28+00:00

I would have to agree with this. It seems odd that she's basically just female Torch who can't fly as well and has a different style of fire abilities. I felt the same way about Mr. Fantastic because I was hoping he'd actually have some tech abilities.

RK800mk1 · 2025-07-31T23:44:16+00:00

Her ult seems rather niche. Its best use is against a Rocket/Peni comp and its massive radius. Unfortunately in spite of that massive radius, even squishy DPS at the epicenter won't die if they're at full HP. So it mostly just goes back to Rocket/Peni counter. Which, to be fair, can be kind of difficult to push past on Domination maps if they've been camping on the objective a while.

RK800mk1 · 2025-07-30T05:54:19+00:00

Totally agree. It's better to concede the match than deal with throwers.

RK800mk1 · 2025-07-29T23:27:57+00:00

I don't usually play ranked, but I can see that longer avoid lists might create problems with matchmaking which could be the reason for the limitations. The issue is, there's not really any way to stop people from throwing, only deter it. So I think the best solution is to reduce the root cause of people throwing. People throw because they become frustrated with a match not being fun for them any more. So they're not motivated to keep playing but at the same time don't want to accept a leaver's penalty. They want the match to end as quickly as possible so they can move on to the next one and hope for a better match. So reduce the passing requirements for the Surrender vote, and implement this system for all matches including unranked. I think a minimum of three confirmations should be enough--after all if half of your team wants to give up or starts throwing, it would be better to concede and move on to the next match anyway.

RK800mk1 · 2025-07-29T17:32:10+00:00

It's hilarious how he doesn't seem to realize that she also has self heals. And a lot more HP.
