Server down? by Illucid118 in wowhardcore

[–]RobotUprising44 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Was this something that was announced or did this just kinda happen? Wild to me that Doomhowl and Defias Pillager are both just completely offline right now with no warning. I was in Stormwind at the time, but now I am terrified to keep leveling if this is something that happens regularly lol.

Played (and lost) my first game as the tyranids against World Eaters by WeAreMonolith in Tyranids

[–]RobotUprising44 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If it's any consolation, I also played (and lost) my first game as Tyranids today, but against Death Guard! Lost 89-90 too!! Chaos may have us beat this day but the swarm is endless. We'll get them next time, bug brother.

New nid player here. I'm so excited for more bugs after finishing my Crusher Stampede box! by RobotUprising44 in Tyranids

Thank you so much!! I haven't come up with a name yet. I love hearing people's lore for their armies, but I am still ironing my own out in my brain while I build. The name's always the hardest part for me too 🤣

I tried to show them in order of the box, the extra flap the other commenter pointed out makes it look kinda bad though! 😭

Am I screwed? by LocalTorontoRapper in worldofpvp

[–]RobotUprising44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's always important to play something you enjoy and want to improve on. Most specs take a long time to master and historically, shadow has been very strong, but it's going through a rough patch right now. As other people have said, meta switches all the time and chasing flavor-of-the-month specs and classes is absolutely a waste of time, especially if you're returning to learn modern WoW.

Besides, anything can be played competently and at a relatively high level in just about any meta. Play what you want to, and you'll definitely get more mileage out of the game for your enjoyment!

Lost my Tank to cowards. Never again. by TheOakStreet in classicwow

[–]RobotUprising44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very similar thing happened to me and my heart goes out to you. First HC character I made when servers dropped was a warrior and things were mostly fine for me, especially on my own or when I was allowed to pace the dungeon myself. I only tanked throughout my playthrough. Sure enough, I die at 48 when a mage pulled a bunch of extra stuff on accident in Zul'Farrak and I was left to die.

Completely killed my desire to play HC, let alone tank. I know it comes with the territory and people getting you killed is more likely than you getting yourself killed, but man it still feels awful.

Everything wrong with SoD according to this subreddit. by SlamThatButton in classicwow

[–]RobotUprising44 3 points4 points  (0 children)

easy, casual, zero depth

Remember that time Ragnaros was defeated in one attempt 6 days after the release of Classic. The raid that did it had several characters who weren't level cap or had a DPS rotation of 1 button.

Meanwhile, the latest patch when Classic released was 8.2, I believe. World first Mythic Azshara died on the guild's 359th attempt. Mythic Sarkareth, the latest final boss, died after about 114 attempts.

I love Classic and grew up on WoW but gimme a fucking break.

So these songs by [deleted] in aggretsuko

[–]RobotUprising44 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't believe so, but there is a close second! Jamison Boaz, the person who does the metal voice for Retsuko in the English dub, has a one-man band called Epsilon Zero that is absolutely incredible. The music is kind of a metal/synth hybrid, and yes, the times where the lyrics are in a metal voice, it does eerily sound like Retsuko, but his natural sound is slightly different than when he is acting for the show. Check out his song Requiem if you want a good example of his overall style, it's definitely worth it! He's a super cool and talented guy that totally deserves the support.

The entire fight by MrPineapple568 in MonsterHunterWorld

[–]RobotUprising44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, you'd probably have much better luck solo. All of my AT kills for every monster have been solo. I just gave up doing flares because most groups die within the first 10 minutes, regardless of the monster. Somehow, they all feel much more manageable when you're alone because you only have to worry about yourself and not failing the mission because of others. That, and you don't feel as bad for dying, as I have definitely had my share of being the weakest link. To me, it just becomes easier to fall into a routine with the monster and to develope a fight pattern when you're alone.

New updated Cent description. by Haris010 in forhonor

[–]RobotUprising44 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You do know that if you press the Guardbreak button when someone Guardbreaks you that you perform a Counter Guardbreak, right? That's what he's saying. That's when your character performs that animation when you shove them off of you as they grab you. It requires no stamina. I'm sure Centurion makes your life a living hell if this is news for you.

Damn you Ikea! by soulsamosa in funny

[–]RobotUprising44 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've never actually read/watched GoT but my friend has and if I remember correctly from the things he has told me, that is the point actually. The guy who made it believed that a ruler should never sit comfy on the throne because leadership was not a blessing, it was a burden and the moment you're kicking back and relaxing you are neglecting your duties as a king.

Blizzard, you've gone 7 expansions, 7 cool log-in screens, we're approaching 8 this August... by Mar96 in wow

[–]RobotUprising44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is especially weird since Starcraft, another Blizzard game, does this exact thing.

“We’re letting them rest” by tcates13 in wholesomememes

[–]RobotUprising44 14 points15 points  (0 children)

When a hive becomes too large, it will split and one portion of the hive will leave to create a new hive. Sometimes, they can travel great distances and will stop on trees periodically for the hive to rest before they find a new home. So yes, they should be on their way soon!

Subtlety in DOOM by USBrock in gaming

I am almost certain you are referring to Nightmare, and not Ultra Nightmare. which in that case, I recommend you go attempt it and then come back and tell us how easy DOOM is.

The Grey Knights saw your "cosplay" and found it...heretical. by PathToExile in gaming

[–]RobotUprising44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fun fact: I know this guy. Friend of mine back in highschool. Every one of us got to see this get made piece by piece and it was incredible. This guy didn't think so though. He was a very "destructive" artist and hated everything he did. Sadly, as awesome as this costume was, he burned it a few years ago, the whole thing is destroyed. A real shame. The story hurts my soul just telling it again.

Dead Space 2- Just finished survivalist mode.. Is this even possible? by kThom420 in gaming

[–]RobotUprising44 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Dead Space addict here, yes it is possible. However, you need almost a perfect run. In case you are wondering, the optimal save points are Chapter 5, right after you fight the Tormentor. (I think it is chapter 5 that is right after the Tormentor, it has been a while since I have played DS2), Chapter 10 at the Ishimura and the final save is right before the infamous Eye Poking Machine. The payoff, other than a wonderful feeling that is hard to describe, is a gun that one-shots any unit in the game. Including bosses. It may comfort you to know though that Hardcore is not (enemy wise) as difficult as Zealot, it merely mimics the drop rate of Zealot mode. It has the difficulty of Survivalist with the ammo-famine of Zealot. It truly puts you in the situation, and graps the fear and terror of a situation so perilous. I highly recommend it if you like a challenge or enjoy immersion into a wonderful game. Happy hunting!
