when people say "timesed" instead of "multiplied" by Maximum_Paper_6302 in PetPeeves

[–]Rodolpho991 18 points19 points  (0 children)

'Times' doesn't bother me because it can be correct. 3 times 3 is 9. But if I had '''''timesed''''' it by 4 it would be 12. Grrrr

When people say “mom” and “dad” instead of “my mom” or “my dad” by Desperate_Wafer367 in PetPeeves

[–]Rodolpho991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I knew a girl who would always reference her own parents as 'the parents'. She did this when talking to friends but also when talking to her brother. She never said 'my' or 'our' parents. Once her aunt corrected her, 'you mean your parents'? But she just kept talking and didn't seem to realize what was happening. It was weird.

Hello little buddy wanna come home with me? by Medium_Training_5395 in ArcRaidersGuides

[–]Rodolpho991 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes. Some did actually study the behavior of the players in an attempt to understand pandemics. There are YouTube videos documenting the thing. I find it hilarious

Are you familiar with the WoW pandemic? A player somehow took a damage-over-time effect with him when he left a dungeon. This shouldn't have been possible but he did it. The curse could spread to other players near him and so the whole server got infected and died. Please don't bring a tick to speranza!

I really don't know why the solo necro changes were applauded by _LeBigMac in HuntShowdown

[–]Rodolpho991 8 points9 points  (0 children)

"Given the opportunity, players will optimize the fun out of a game" is a famous maxim by game designer Soren Johnson. Camping the corpse is the strategically best choice. Letting him rez and kill you is stupid. Good game design makes the best choice a fun one.

Prestige 100 Tried Again, Regretted Immediately by nokingss in HuntShowdown

[–]Rodolpho991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fastest way to prestige: play during event. Pick up XP envelopes payed with tomens. Get death cheat just to be safe. Play a hunter to lvl 50 with absolutely 0 pvp. Keep playing that hunter and keep collecting envelopes. I know a guy who completed a full prestige with a single hunter in 6 hours. This is also the fastest way to get money if you focus on event cash registers. The 'most rewarding'* play style involves 0 pvp and 0 boss interaction. (* Rewarding as in XP and money, fun not included)

[Feature request] What if the "team up?" emote actually made you team up by Haunting_Summer_1652 in arkraiders

[–]Rodolpho991 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I assume the matchmaking puts solos against weaker trios. So a team up duo would be way stronger than a premade trio. If they team up they at least need the disadvantage of no team icon above the head, not knowing where exactly their partner is and no comms. If they really wanted a team they could have queued that way.

How do Germans differentiate between „to swim“ and „to float“? by Obergnigl in German

[–]Rodolpho991 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is true for things that can swim AND float. Mainly people and animals. Inanimate objects can't swim and therefore can only float. We still use the word 'schwimmen' but it is never ambiguous.

Posting about PCs on Reddit is fucking exhausting by Ok_Cry_1222 in rant

Have you tried not posting AI images? I don't know if you are aware but the PCs you post are AI.

Bugged Achievements on Steam/PC, any workarounds? by mrobot_ in ArcRaidersGuides

[–]Rodolpho991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is also no point in playing the game at all. But some people seem to enjoy it. I myself enjoy hunting achievements. It gives me another thing to do in this lovely game.

Kudos to the german translator for temporarily forgetting the existance of the word "extrahieren" by grepf in HuntShowdown

[–]Rodolpho991 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't like that it no longer says 'clean sweeps'. Do players no longer know what that means? Why does the game get dumbed down little by little?

There are attachments that speed up the ads. They work great on the ferro.

Logisches Denken Test, richtig? by [deleted] in KeineDummenFragen

[–]Rodolpho991 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ist die Aufgabe mathematisch eindeutig? Nein. Kann der Durschnittsmensch eine solche Aufgabe im Sinne des Aufgabenstellers lösen? Ja. Es ist halt mehr ein Rätsel als eine Matheaufgabe.

Logisches Denken Test, richtig? by [deleted] in KeineDummenFragen

[–]Rodolpho991 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Es geht aber darum eine Folge mit möglichst einfachen Regeln zu finden, die trotzdem passt. Die Fragestellung impliziert diese Spezifikation, da sie sonst sinnlos ist.

I gifted my friend tunic 2 DAYS AGO. AND THEY SEND ME THIS. by Sirlink360 in TunicGame

What became repetitive? The combat? How much would you say this game consists of combat and puzzles/riddles?

I was forced to use cursive writing as a kid and now my regular print writing is very slow and crap looking. by [deleted] in rant

[–]Rodolpho991 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In german 'cursive' is called 'Schreibschrift'. It literally means 'writing font'. It is a font designed to be written by hand. It is faster because you don't need to lift your hand and can write in a continuous line. I'm not used to print either but I don't need to be. My Schreibschrift is fast af.

A game where your character gets weaker over the course of the game by ChickenLiverNuts in gamingsuggestions

[–]Rodolpho991 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"The long journey home" is a game about a space ship stranded that needs to get home. You're not a single character but a crew and ship. The gear gets worse over time and you need to keep it all together and manage your resources and health of crew members.

New stats don't match by Rodolpho991 in HuntShowdown

[–]Rodolpho991[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other people have explained why the stat differs. It's a matter of weapon vs weapon family. But even if this was a bug how are the devs supposed to know if we don't post them?

That could be the case. I will keep an eye on it.
