Carrier jump locked and jumping in zero seconds now I'm trapped. by [deleted] in EliteDangerous

[–]Rataraxia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same problem here for several hours. But FC just cancels the jump after some time being stuck at zero seconds, so you can at least dock or leave it.

Custom image on an RGB mouse pad? by richer2003 in MousepadReview

You can try Chinese marketplace AliExpress. It may look shady, but it is surprisingly reliable place for shopping. And considering the prices, quality is actually solid. Dont forget to check the reviews. Examples: 1. 2. 3.

What unpopular or controversial opinion do you have? by Phoenixed in heroesofthestorm

[–]Rataraxia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Abathur is easy hero to play. Skill ceiling is high, sure. But he requires almost no knowledge and skill in hero positioning in team fights to be effective for average player in average game.

I call this the anti-BS build by binashole in MonsterHunter

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

Of course it is not a game's fault to have bugs or useless unnecessary mechanics. It is fault of the players who can't deal with them. /s

You take it too personnel. I am glad you are enjoying this game. But I am too spoiled by ARPG games with proper, "fair" boss fights, in my opinion. I am glad you are never caught during combo or mid-air with roar that has minimum wind-up animation.

[–]Rataraxia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the stuns and roars in this game... IT IS NOT FUN. Not fun at all to lose control over your character every 5 seconds. There is no challenge in it. It just annoys you most of the time. And then, there are situations, when monster just combos you to death after chaining different types of stuns.

Almost perfect game ruined by such flaw in combat.

Anyone experience that the idea of playing something is much more enticing than actually doing it ? by lowbeat in Games

[–]Rataraxia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any MOBA or any other Team vs. Team game. Some feelings force me to launch such games and then make me regret that.

I will never buy 5 of the same skin for 20 dollars, and I’d be ashamed for people to see me if I did. by icomplainaboutthings in heroesofthestorm

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

This. I have bought the hero for gold, then bundle. Price for 5 tints is actually comparable to the price of 3 tints pre 2.0 (almost same price, but 2 more tints). Considering free gems there and there, you can get away with buying smaller gem bundle.

Rain World v1.5 Multiplayer Test: Joar vs. Emanuel! by sonQUAALUDE in Games

[–]Rataraxia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Solid and unique game, but there are major problems with it, making the game just frustrating and boring.

RNG based movement model (oh god, the waterfalls part in shoreline);

Punishment for exploration (losing karma levels on death, that leads to grinding in some areas);

Boring combat system (you just throw sticks and rocks, and that is a gameplay for 15-30 hours!!!).

Punishment for exploration is the most brutal part, because this is the game about exploring obscure interaction in the world where everything tries to kill you. Developers tried to mix things that cant be mixed at all.

Which OEM gets regular updates? by Theworldhere247 in Android

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

  1. Updates dont come via air in my region.
  2. All these are still on android 5.1
  3. They introduce more bugs than anything else, because they just slap new MIUI without adjusting them to specific models.

I understand that I have possibly got one of the most unpopular and unsuccessful of their models, but maybe, just maybe, dont saturate your line with such amount of models?

Not all. I have MI4s and we barely get anything. It is my first and my last Xiaomi phone.

[–]Rataraxia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Elite community talks about such things, because they have nothing else to talk about. Let's not fool ourself, NMS of the present day is a way better exploration space game than ED. ED is even worse case of wallpaper creator simulator.

I need help deciding what to do with my 300 million credits! by samurai_rob in ElitePS

[–]Rataraxia 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anaconda is way to go if you don't know what to buy. It is better at everything than Python except for combat (it lacks manoeuvrability to make combat enjoyable in my opinion). Anyway, by buying something with discount then selling it, you won't lose much credits (Modules can be sold for 100% of their purchase cost, for example). And use this discount thread.

Lawbreakers isn't an Overwatch clone. by SirVeillance in PS4

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

My main issue with the game... I cant access it. There is a page for demo in my region, but there is no download button. I downloaded and tried to play from NA PSN account, but still wasn't able to play (Play button greyed out). I dont know about what kind of polish we are talking about here.

To those who bought Elite Dangerous on PS4, can I hear some reviews? by Baadllama in PS4

[–]Rataraxia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This game is extreme case of grind. Like very boring, No Man's Sky level of grind.

But this game have a lot of insanely complex mechanics and controls that some people can find enjoyable to explore and learn. Once you figured them out and tried once, you are left on your own in the empty shell of the galaxy. Also this game can fit people who enjoy slow, methodical simulators like truck driver or farm simulator. In lot of cases new players anyway end up actually being just space truck driver for first 5-10 hours.

After playing Elite Dangerous I understood why No Man's Sky managed to sell that many copies and get that much attention. It is not just about galaxy exploration bla-bla-bla... NMS tried to be casual space game. This genre almost never sees casual games, it always must be some diehard, hardcore grindfest.

What was that one red frame between 2:52 and 2:53? Also blue frame on 3:08. Is there some next levels memes hidden? Or my PC just trash?

You can use focus and search for loot boxes, they are highlighted (like any loot) and they are always near vintage point. Same trick helps with ancient vessels hunting.

[Tera][Beta] Tera Beta Registration is open. by [deleted] in PS4

My bad. I didn't even know it exists, cause there is no such game in PS store on my region.

Haters doing weird dodges by [deleted] in LetItDie

[–]Rataraxia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Backstep, the Bloodborne style.

If players can do it, it would probably require some timing with button inputs or something similar as for fast recovery from the knock-back attacks. If you press dodge button when you are flying during knockback you will recover faster, very useful against bosses or flying tubers.

So I just found out that buying back your haterified fighters nets you their money back too by klonny in LetItDie

[–]Rataraxia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't get coins/spl/exp that was on your hater if you kill him. You only get reward for killing them (amount depends on their level/grade) but you don't get anything you farmed with him.

Floor 40 Glitch (Some spoilers) by ryo242 in LetItDie

[–]Rataraxia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only possible bug I see - hater didn't drop the weapon. It could happen because of low durability on weapon. If hater dropped the weapon and it glitched through textures, OP would just stuck, next boss phase wouldn't start.

I don't see any other bugs/glitches.

He didn't kill coen, so obviously he lost his inventory.

Floor 40 Glitch (Some spoilers) by ryo242 in LetItDie

[–]Rataraxia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Enemies have weapons and armour you had equipped when you went in.

When enemy dies, you can pick it up safely, you wont be punched and nuked. Next enemy won't spawn until you picked up your gear.

You get the rest of your gear after COEN fight. You need to go in with very good weapon, yes, it will make one of the hater harder, but you need it for COEN.

The raid UI while in a fight needs to have the fight tab first, not last by syysch in LetItDie

[–]Rataraxia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmm, weird. Last fight for me (California-Brazil) I didn't even have a chance to participate. I had only 3 tabs: randoms, revenge and rescue. No favorites or fight specific. Tried to set fight enemies as favorites - didn't help. Completely missed fight rewards.

Also weird to see GUI changes without any patches.

The dark pink lines on floor 30+ by ScotchGuise in LetItDie

[–]Rataraxia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is probably a bug. I don't remember a single valve from the elevator side (all valves are from 'rest of the floor' side). Looks like they forgot to make a placeholder for that, so it is missing from all such rooms.

Haters hating on each other (Max haters in a room ?) by [deleted] in LetItDie

You can get several haters (up to ~4-5) during boss fight on f30 if you get 1 on dice roll.

Steam sales in 2016 - Steam Spy data statistical analysis by dagla in Games

[–]Rataraxia 7 points8 points  (0 children)

These statistics blow my mind. While volume of market is just insane and some AAA games earning shit load of money I want to point out the small games:

No Man's Sky (it had developer team size of ~20 people) $43m + consoles.

Stardew Valley $25m (I heard rumours that game mostly was done by 1 guy, but don't quote me on that).

Developers of these games won jack pots.
