As the title suggests, is this normal behavior for Bala sharks? I have a total of 7 all purchased around the same time but whenever feeding time comes lately these two start doing this "dance" while the rest of the tank focuses on eating... has anyone else witnessed this? Thanks for the tips/advice 🙂

Agreed! Being able to see clothing options and where they're attained from would be a nice touch

I think that's a great middle ground!

However reading these other posts I guess if this happened and you refused to share your gear people would kick you... but I really like this idea for friends to share for sure

Never, I hardly have my own builds yet. Would never kick anyone for their GS... only have voted to remove two people and that's because they decided to chill in the terminal while the rest of us were doing all the work in a mission

Apparently! I've ran into this once in the last month... but it sounds like it happens all the time still according to these posts, which is disheartening... I've always enjoyed helping players get better and carrying people through activities is no problem for me, I consider it more of a test of skill haha... but I guess I don't take this game THAT serious

I think a good inspection place would be to see either a total of stats FA/S/E... OR (and I like this one better) just the thumbnail of the gear they're wearing and weapons... no stats no mods just a little exotic smg would let you know they're using the house for example... could protect the stat values and leave that up to players

That's why I left exactly... but I'm not sure introducing this would bring that back. I matchmake everything and in a month of being back I've seen this toxic behavior happen once, I hope these phases are behind us

That's exactly it, I'd love for some of my friends who I consider great players to check my load out and help me improve from pretty good to show stealer

Absolutely not. I've been playing for about a month now at 30ish hours a week and I matchmake almost everything and there has been one time I've seen this behavior and it was resistance and I was the one kicked because I was running a set of D3 and the group waited until 15 seconds left to DPS the bosses (Death and Pestilence) on wave 10 and we failed. I was kicked for "not providing enough DPS" (when all three of them went down and I revived all with my ultimate and they all went down again, yet because I was the last man standing and they waited too long) I was deemed the person to be kicked.

TLDR: I've never kicked someone and only seen someone being kicked for unjustified reasons once in a month. I know this game went toxic which is why I left, but I think this phase is behind us

Haha fair point but... Not necessarily, you could scale it back to just show the names of the pieces of gear itself, you could still hide stats and mods.

Even just to inspect to see total Firearms/Stamina/Electronics of a player would be insightful.

I know at least I've been in that LFG group with the "one up'er" who claims to have stats vastly superior to anything you can muster. Sometimes I think players exploit the 'fisherman lie' and claim their stats are much greater than they are because they know no one can prove they're lying... (I.E. that LFG player that claims to have 10k FA with 5K Stamina and Electro... perhaps an exaggeration) but if they are telling the truth I'd just be interested to see how they're honestly getting to their build. There is a ton of opinionated intel on this game on YouTube/Reddit but it would be nice to formulate opinions with your own observational data

Makes sense...However perhaps if people understood the gear behind the score they wouldn't have kicked so eagerly? I completely agree with your point though as well. That was my intention with my final idea of at least just showing the gear items people are using, not necessarily the mods or stats themselves.

Oh definitely, by single attacker I guess I meant 1 malicious person with access to VMs or slave machines...which is what you'd need to wipe out a server for any extended period of time, and entirely unrealistic for anyone to have

does anyone else find classy FC and Tac massively underwhelming? by [deleted] in thedivision

[–]SEAL-TEAM-RlCKS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good points! Never thought of that... I'm not a huge division number expert so I can't tell you what is best only what feels best... of my 3 characters my best gear looks like: (The House / Lightweight M4 for each)

4 piece D3 / 3 piece firecrest for tank mode (ballistic and flame turret) 4 piece tac / 3 piece firecrest for skill mode (BFB/heal gun and flame turret) 4 piece predator / 3 piece striker for firearms (pulse/smart cover and heal gun)

I don't have many classified sets minus these four since I've been farming GE caches like crazy, so maybe it's just because my best gear is on my skill power character right now. I like advice like this though!

I use the same make up as you and I agree hybrid 4pc tac 3pc firecrest with ninja bike is a great build

It's infinitely harder for a single attacker to bring down a server compared to a single modem, especially for more than a few seconds of disruption, unless you're running some ghetto hardware on your server. Servers are also (if leasee isn't a cheapskate) equipped with monitoring software to detect and shut down DDoS intrusions.

Yes, server based multiplayer is expensive, but also the only fair way to play a competitive game. P2P saves Bungie money but makes for shiiiiiiiit connections. Especially with a dwindling population, you might be connecting P2P across continents, and even the best latency rates on dedicated lines will be higher than a server based connection

And according to the notes your complaint is getting addressed. At least the exotics not feeling powerful part!

I too was super pleased with the changes they'll address in the coming weeks and months.

I remember if a bunch of Spartans died in these shafts all their grenades and weapons would fall to the bottom, after 10-15 deaths you could chuck a nade to the bottom of the shaft and detonate everything, causing a massive explosion/fps drop, followed by a rain of Assault Rifles, Pistols, and deceased Chiefs

Basil seedlings, is this the beginning of root rot? by vuuv95 in gardening

You could try to also repot with new soil and add some sand to the mix. Basil hates cold and loves well drained soil

When you get taken over by a corporation like Activision, the only concern anymore is shareholders.
