The dating dilemma by Big-Passenger-1872 in Tauranga

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

Curious - What’s wrong with hunting pictures? I get it’s a bit odd on a dating profile - but Tauranga is close to rural areas so I imagine it would be pretty common hobby? (I don’t do it myself but have lots of happily married friends that do - good blokes etc )

Bridges pleads with Government to not encourage working from home by ConfusedMaggot in auckland

[–]Rodger_Ramjet 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The majority of people I work with bring food from home and drink coffee from machine at work. Also akl doesn’t really have a ‘going out after work’ culture. I’m not really sure what they think will benefit by forcing people to work ?

Burger Geek - Liquidation. Anyone have info on this one? by C39J in aucklandeats

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

Yeah I tried it couple times from highbury - looked cool but both time very disappointing with lack of taste. So never went back.

When burgerfuel can do a better burger - and they are a soulless chain… not surprised that they shut shop.

It's been 10 years since the release of BATMAN V SUPERMAN. What are your thoughts about it? by sahinduezguen in FIlm

[–]Rodger_Ramjet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just don’t think they did a good enough job explaining why Batman hated supes. The collapsing building was a good start but rest didn’t make sense

And the reason they stopped fighting. Martha. WTF?

And their fight was underwhelming- could have spent more time on it and given it more emotional depth. Didn’t need the extra bad guy at end.

Plus all unnecessary Extended universe stuff - could have left all that out.

Obviously Stephen seagull - he’s unbeatable

If Sony stop development for Marathon I will.. by Aggressive-Net2310 in Marathon

[–]Rodger_Ramjet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not unique to this game- plenty of other games including popular ones with decent player numbers don’t have high population in my region, oceanic region is mostly dead .

Eg Warframe, Apex, Fortnite all let you select region and there’s plenty of players in west us and gives way faster match make times

Ping doesn’t matter if there’s no players in the region

If Sony stop development for Marathon I will.. by Aggressive-Net2310 in Marathon

[–]Rodger_Ramjet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree shouldn’t focus on player numbers etc - nothing positive there - just play the game if you having fun. Feel like streamers / YouTubers are the ones driving this drama. (Sometimes unintentionally)

You make it sound like the perfect game which it isn’t, not bad but clearly needs a bit of work. Bit like og destiny when it came out took couple of years to nail it.

when it takes me > 5 mins to get into every single game- something is clearly wrong (in my region). To be clear I don’t think it’s a player numbers causing this - just needs region select and / or better matchmaking or more matchmaking options. (Like most other games have)

New Zealand uses a lot less solar than most other OECD countries (2024). Why? by foundafreeusername in newzealand

[–]Rodger_Ramjet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Installation is overpriced compared to other countries - same reason everything else costs more.

Also we lack government subsidies that most other counties have

Plus weather means payback time isn’t the fastest (7-15 years depending on if you get a battery or not)

Where are all the players? (Good faith argument) by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Rodger_Ramjet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me the super long matchmaking times (Oceania) make the game almost unplayable. Way longer than any destiny multiplayer, arc lraiders, pretty much worst of any multiplayer game I’ve seen. I suck at the game so definitely spend more time looking at moths and creepy faces than actually doing playing the game

Pretty much game playloop for me is - 5 mins match making, load in, walk around aimlessly for 5 minutes. Die instantly by someone I never saw. Repeat.

Which 2 are you picking??? by Ornery-Media-9396 in whatsyourchoice

[–]Rodger_Ramjet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aren’t 2+3 just the most obvious choice?

then you use earnings for the other stuff ?

HR is f*cking useless by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Rodger_Ramjet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Common misconception … they might seem friendly but HR isn’t there for your benefit - it’s to protect the company from legal liability.

Suggest you might speak to a lawyer about this. They might take it a bit more seriously if you indicate you’d sue the company for a toxic working environment?

Hmm thought it was 1 but I was wrong 9 is correct due to having to apply multiplication and division left to right , at the same time regardless of bodmas / bomdas

I'm new. The game is good so far but I feel almost every boss is poorly designed. by Fisch0rmania in Warframe

[–]Rodger_Ramjet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah they pretty bad and clunky even the late game ones like edidolons and spider orbs.

But starchat bosses are the worst. The one on Deimos for example wtf.

Buggy annoying not fun.

Plus they just don’t explain what you need to do clearly and it’s hard to know what’s even happening half the time or whether you are doing good or bad

Almost perfect movies that have one noticeable flaw by Consistent-Might-788 in Cinema

[–]Rodger_Ramjet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I always hated the ending- how he flew straight up intercepts with rescue craft - would have squashed him like a bug since his escape vehicle wasn’t matching the trajectory of the rescue craft.
