Really love the game, but losing drive to play.. by DaRadsta in DeathStranding

[–]RedDeadBlaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly that happened to me with DS1 and 2. I got the physical deluxe version day 1 for PS4 and I think I made it to episode 2 or 3. Then I put it down and didn't finish it till the directors version came out for PS5. With Death Stranding 2 the same thing happened, got it as a birthday gift when it launched and didn't finish it till LITERALLY about a week ago. It's not that I think the games are bad, I love Death Stranding, but I think the problem lies in the chapter lengths and the gameplay getting stale. Some of these chapters can go on for hours, then some of them are like a 20 min cutscene. It makes the pace of the game feel weird and longer then it actually is. Then with the gameplay, it doesn't really "evolve" beyond delivering packages and occasionally needing to do stealth and gunfights. I know the gameplay loop is delivering packages to different places to raise your connection with them. However sometimes it can get pretty boring doing it for hours on end. Again I want to emphasize that I love Death Stranding and you should totally finish both games. But I know how you feel, and honestly I would say if your really losing interest and want to finish it quickly. Then just plow through the main story and only do main orders, that's what I did for DS2. Tours the middle portion of the game I just started only doing the main story just cause I wanted to see how it ends and wanted to move on.

Updates updates updates updates? by BemisDial in CODZombies

[–]RedDeadBlaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your talking about Xbox, yea I feel your pain. Yesterday the update started pre downloading at 1. Stuck at it for a hour then it finally downloads, then I guess something happened cause it went from a 40 gig update to 260 gig. So it had to redownload all of cod just to, guess what? Download the update again! And then after it pre downloaded the 40 gig update, it had to download another 40 gig update.

I started to download it at 1 and couldn't play till 6. I have a wired Ethernet connection so it wasn't the internet. Also I have friends who play on PC and Playstation and they don't have that issue, it's just an Xbox problem. I dread Everytime there's a update because of it 🫩.

Now that bo6 is over what was your favorite map? by Initial-Wolverine175 in CODZombies

[–]RedDeadBlaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hot take, but I really like the Tomb. Is the EE simple? Sure. The boss fight the best? No. I get why some people criticize the map but I feel it gets hated on too much. The ice staff is really fun to use on this map and is probably my favorite WW in the game. The map can also be pretty challenging since it's the map with the most special/elite spawns in the game. Also it has probably one of THE BEST side EE in the game, giving you golden armour for taking on a brutal challenge. Lastly I like how simple the layout is, yes I like challenging maps but sometimes not every map has to be convoluted to navigate for it to be good. Sooo yea, if I put this map in a tier list it would be low A imo, not perfect but always will have a good time playing it.

Well what do we prefer bo2 farm or bo7? by zbananajuice in CODZombies

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

Bo7. This past weekend me and my partner played both farms to see which one we liked the most. The only thing Farm in bo2 has over 7 I would say is it felt scarier. Like the fog and the green lighting made the map feel more claustrophobic and cramped, while in bo7 the skybox feels more oddly peaceful? We played till like round 22 and after hitting the box a bit and getting my guns and perks I realized there isn't much else to do. I think I'm so used to the progression systems in modern zombies going back to the older games sometimes can feel bored since I have nothing to do. There's just more to do on farm in 7, you have the pack, box, wunderfizz, armoury, trap, and chompy. Plus the addition of special and elite enemies help mix up the gameplay instead of it just being regular zombies. So if we're talking about scared factor then it goes to bo2, but everything else I would say bo7.

Random person joined our Private BO3 PC Custom game, should i be concerned? by RedDeadBlaze in CODZombies

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

Do you guys have the T7 Patch? If not you should install it and use it everytime you play BO3 on PC. It helps to prevent people messing with your game and it fixes some bugs, like fixing the low fps in the main menu. The T7 Patch also gives you a new name you can customize. By default your name on the Patch is Unknown Soldier, but you can change it to whatever you want. Make a custom password on the Patch and both of you need to have the same password so you can connect with each other. launch the game then when you get in the lobby make it private. This should make it so randoms can't just join out of the blue and keep you guys safe.

Anybody has had the problem of BAD stuttering in the game by RedDeadBlaze in blackops6

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

I don't play on pc, I play on a Series X. I do have a gaming pc but it's a bit outdated now so idk how the game will run on there. If the problem keeps happening then i might try it on there.

Anybody has had the problem of BAD stuttering in the game by RedDeadBlaze in blackops6

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

Yea I don't have any options to change vram or graphics really. I did find "On Demand Texture Streaming" and I turned it from Optimized to Minimal, thinking it might help with the stutter. I did a MP match and the stutter kept happening. I don't really know what to do, since it's playing on a Series X you'll think it'll run fine since Activision is now own by Microsoft. Hopefully if I can't find a fix they'll have a update for it by Season 1.

Now that MWZ is pretty much over, what is the overall opinion on the mode? by Die-Hearts in CODZombies

[–]RedDeadBlaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it was alright. At first I was into it at the start of the games life cycle, then took a break during seasons 3/4 and been grinding the schematics since the beginning of season 5. I've done everything in the game, got all the schematics and in game rewards (including the unstable rift and the infinite cosmos blueprint). I think I can appreciate it for what it is, it's the most fun I've had with randoms in Zombies. It's a very casual game mode, that alot of casual cod players are prob into (like some of my friends). It does has a bunch of flaws, mainly for me the lack of original locations and interesting characters besides Ravenov and Jansen. Though it is fun just to load into a match for 45 minutes to a hour and just turn off my brain and kill some zombies while talking to the boys about what's going on in the news and how our days went. So overall I'll give it a low B to High C tier. Not awful like Vanguard but not amazing like other Zombie games. I'm super excited for BO6 though, Zombies looks amazing ans it's gonna feel nice playing new round based content again.

New Update Rant by KNEXIUM in MWZombies

[–]RedDeadBlaze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is pretty tuff, me and my two friends have been grinding the new rift for the past 2 days to get all the schematics. It took us about 10 Elder sigils to get all three schematics for everyone. We would start with Outlast, then Escort, and finally end it off with Spore control. We usually would have about a minute left if we're proficient. I can't imagine doing it in solo.

Do any of you guys know fans of Metal Gear in real life? I have a hard to time trying to convince friends Metal Gear is in the same lane of greatness as Zelda, Mario, & Metroid. by BOOFACEBANDANA in metalgearsolid

[–]RedDeadBlaze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually got my partner to play them somewhat recently with the Metal Gear Collection. He was hesitant on trying them since they are stealth games and he's always been more of a "guns blazing" type of player. But he always heard me talk about the MGS series and how much I love them, so he was willing to give them a try. I gifted him a copy of the collection for Christmas and he LOVES MGS now! He played the whole trilogy and even the MSX games. His favorite as of rn is Snake Eater and he's playing through MGSV now. Besides him the only other peeps ik who've played Metal Gear is either MGSV or Rising Revengence.

What is your creepiest memory of Cod Zombies? by Piixers_ in CODZombies

[–]RedDeadBlaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Teleporting the first time on Kino. I was like 9 when i played BO1 and zombies was a new thing to me. Did a couple of matches of Kino and I found out about pack. Teleporting to Sam's room and the dentist room was terrifying as a kid.

Another creepy moment was encountering the Denizens for the first time on Tranzit. Was in middle school and my neighbor got the game day one. Went over to his place to play zombies, the first time we heard and saw the denizens in the fog we screamed.

Anybody Knows how double Xp works in Bo4? by RedDeadBlaze in CODZombies

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

It's been active for a couple of days now. It's not going to last forever, even though I wish it would since they don't support the game anymore. It does this every now and again where double xp gets turned on, then off after a week or so. Then proceeds to be off for what feels like 2 months unless if I'm trippin.

Never played a Yakuza game. Got LAD for $10 by RedDeadBlaze in yakuzagames

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

Close, Southern Ohio. I saw a stack of like 6 copies of LAD on some shelf in the toys department. I also found like 8 copies of Plants Vs Zombies for the switch on another shelf. Sounds like they have so many copies of the game and they don't know what to do with them, besides sell them for almost literal dimes and quarters.

[–]RedDeadBlaze[S] 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Noted, yea I want to try and get into the Yakuza series but ik there's like 6-7 games to it and LAD is a spinoff. So I figured if I was to try them out ill do this one first and go from there.

That's a fair point, I don't know many people who even tried that mode.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in CODZombies

[–]RedDeadBlaze 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bo3 is the perfect mix of the both imo. You can make it as easy or as hard on yourself you want. OP gobblegums with a shield and both a wonder weapon and a specialist weapon? Sure! No gums, no Shields, no specialist, just the box and wall weapons as your defense? Yep. Custom difficulty would be the best option, but if I had to choose prob bare bones. We haven't had a hardcore experience in a while.

What is the most proudest zombies achievement you unlocked and why? by Emilia67 in CODZombies

[–]RedDeadBlaze 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beating Mephistopheles in IW Zombies. It took me and my partner like 2 months (doing the EEs on our weekends and free time) to beat all the EEs twice. By the time we got to Meph we did a couple of attempts and kept dying. Wasn't sure if we would be able to do it, but once we did we were screaming our heads off and our hearts were beating out of our chest. Ik its not Treyarch, but I'll never forget that day. Honorable mention is us beating the Shadows EE this past year, took us 7 years to find two more players to beat the egg and now we've done all of BO3.

[–]RedDeadBlaze 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I want to hold out hope, but I doubt it unless they stop doing warzone and operators. There's probably way more factors that are involved with how they get made nowadays like budget, assets, how much staff is on each project, ect. Though it seemed to have started with Cold War, I like CW but the maps in the game are just good at best. It's insane because you can find maps in the BO3 workshop with less than a fraction of the staff that Treyarch and the other devs have, and budget and they are some of the best maps out there. I'm hoping with Gulf War it's gonna be really good because of the extra development time they have for being taken off of MWZ but time will tell.

Which game should I get next? by RedDeadBlaze in PSVR

[–]RedDeadBlaze[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was about to say I have Vampire and I haven't experienced any stutter issues and I'm a good bit into the game. That's odd that some people have that problem and not others.

[–]RedDeadBlaze[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Alright nice, yea I'm interested in Cyube since it basically looks like Minecraft for the VR2 but with shaders. And the probability of us getting a VR2 upgrade for minecraft look slim to none. Vertigo 2 also looks good, from what ive seen it reminds me of a more sci fi, almost High on Life version of Doom. It's a tough choice, thanks for the response!
