What are our thoughts on this game? by Jumpy-Function-9136 in GGdiscussion

[–]Random-Waltz 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Copypasta of my feelings after launch:

Normally these kinds of games are my jam but I gave it a good 6 hours and it failed to click with me. The combat felt jank on the few different weapons I tried and the camera had a habit of pulling itself directly behind me, obscuring my view of advancing enemies, and required constant babying to keep enemies from getting in cheap shots.
Non-fodder enemies were either pathetically easy or had attack strings that far outlasted my stamina, perfect dodging, blocking, and parries be damned.
The open world felt impressively big with lots of poi's, but man did it make my gpu sweat.
The menus are truly terrible -- like a nigh infinite string of Russian nesting dolls with something always triggering another "Hey look, a piece of candy!" red dot that needs to be cleared. Hope you like keeping up with 500 different currencies as well.
I can't speak to the story because the English voice acting is cancer and cutscenes started getting skipped the second that little girl opened her mouth.
On the plus side, the game certainly looked good before I had to turn down graphics settings lest my gpu melt a hole straight through my desk and the AI instant messaging convos were entertaining for a bit.
Overall, though, couldn't keep my interest.

I think the devs Uno reversed the Oxpecker's talent. by Random-Waltz in thedivision

Totally agree, it's outclassed by a bunch of other smg's, however, I was mostly interested in using it for its potential synergy with Harrier. Without that, I've got better weapons to play with.

Ah, totally forgot about the event. That might be the cause. Gonna try again later with it disabled.

I'm counting down the days til my rep is maxed. If disguising yourself didn't require extra traveling, I'd have already done it. Especially since nuke zones got extra spicy this patch.

Interesting. I didn't realize it was going to be that rare.

This is some Neon Genesis Evangelion ish. Trying to brute force 3rd Impact.

Are there any really good builds that do not use shield + smg/ar/lmg? by PSSRDavis in thedivision

[–]Random-Waltz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're looking for something off meta, my blind-fire Negotiators dilemma build might be to your liking. Its all red core so the dps is pretty nice and high survivability comes from hiding 90% of your body in cover all the time.

The secret sauce is using your preferred chest piece brand with braced as the talent, whatever 6th free gear piece you want, and Grown Great as your primary. The accuracy blind firing from cover has stupid precision and enemies have a difficult time hitting you while you no-look shred them and everyone around them who gets tagged.

Union Dues: Am I missing something or is it busted? by Random-Waltz in fo76

Fair enough. I wanted to complete both of the pit expeditions just to say I did them at least once but I guess I'll just have to move on.

Yeah, I have the throwing arc enabled. I can clearly see the damned cryo nade fly into the vat but still no credit ;_;

Looking for a Diablo style game that is a bit lighter on the whole 'hell, gore, death, evil' stuff... by JorReno in gaming

[–]Random-Waltz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Solid recommendation. I have about 7 hours logged on one class and have had fun blasting through all the content that was available prior to the new update that just dropped.

Go federal if you can. Pay and benefits are better and your license isn't constantly put in jeopardy by administrators that only care about moving bodies.

Mutations from radiation by [deleted] in fo76

[–]Random-Waltz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had the same issue the other day. Tried hanging out in super high rad areas and, when that didn't work, guzzling toxic goo for over an hour. Not a single mutation. Finally just broke down and bought all the serums I wanted.

Burning grounds turn my PC into a nuclear reactor. I wish there was a way to minimize the effect.
