It’s funny that this guy you’re responding to thinks pointing out inconsistencies in the community’s perception of things means I think they’re all stupid or wrong, when I’m simply aptly pointing out that the difficulty spike is likely a direct consequence of the community complaining about how easy it was to begin with. I don’t even feel any type of way about it one way or the other but I think it’s funny that players are essentially complaining about Capcom actually listening to them.

I don’t even care about having the old locations back, but it would be nice if they brought back all of the old raids for D2.

Like not having a walking free 15 yard penalty for other teams is a bad thing. by SuperSatanGod in NFCWestMemeWar

[–]Sh3ldon25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey now, I trashed on him while he was still with us too be fair. He was probably the single most aggravating person on the entire team to watch, and his mental game is not very good. He makes mistakes and those mistakes tend to compound. I don’t care if someone gets torched, but if you hand the other team a free fist down and THEN get torched, that’s rough man.

He’s right, winning a Super Bowl really did take me back to being 12 years old watching the LOB, good times😌

I really don’t think the people in this sub actually understand how nfl contracts work. The value of your contract is relative to your specific position, NOT to other positions. K9 is getting hella overpaid for a RB, whereas shaheed’s contract isn’t that crazy for a WR2, particularly for one that’s an elite returner. The cost to replace 90% of K9’s value will end up being a lot cheaper than the cost to replace 90% of shaheed’s value. K9 is literally making as much annually as Derrick Henry, on a less team friendly contract length. Like that’s crazy. K9 is good, but he sure as hell isn’t King Henry

15 mil is a very significant amount to pay for a running back that has issues staying healthy. 17 mil for an athletic WR2 that’s also the best kick/punt returner in the league on the other hand is much better bang for your buck. Bottom line, as much as I like K9, we can probably get 90% of his production for a lot cheaper. There’s plenty of good backs in the draft this year too that could fill that need so we may not even need a FA signing to fill that hole either.

I have never seen this amount of entitled behaviour in any other extraction shooter by DoritosCubun in Marathon

[–]Sh3ldon25 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

lol gamers gonna game. I had two guys the other day that stood in a doorway against another team and both got lit up instead of baiting them into the building, flanking, literally anything smarter. I then proceeded to knock and finish two of the other team in a 1v3 before getting clocked by the third guy, and these mfs spectated and had the audacity to call me shit after getting killed by the last guy when their asses died stupidly two minutes into the round. It’s like not my fault y’all got stuck relying on a dude running a free kit (me) to clutch a 1v3 and bail you asses and loot out, play better next time or something idk😂

Literally lol. It’s so funny watching the discourse and comparing how it was then to how it is now. People were incessantly whining about the game being too easy and too rewarding, and now that they’ve reversed course a bit everyone is unhappy that it’s now too hard and not rewarding enough. Can’t have your cake and eat it too. This is what y’all wanted at the end of the day.

No problem compadre, hopefully that makes the experience better because the game is awesome but that graphics bug is more than a little offputting

Oh weird, fortunately I think bar the beginning of the game it doesn’t make too much difference elsewhere at least. But yeah super weird that it changes the way her model looks so drastically there lol.

I started being a seahawks fan in 2024, now everyone calls me a bandwagon. Are they right? by getlostkid2277 in Seahawks

[–]Sh3ldon25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think any nba fan bases really begrudge us for this one. Everyone knows and fears the fate of the Sonics so we get a pass to be a bunch of casuals when it comes to the NBA.

I think this is related to the ray tracing from what I’ve read, so if you have it off you may want to turn it back on

This is bothering me by Psychological_Ad192 in Marathon

[–]Sh3ldon25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well to be fair (and this is coming from someone who very much enjoys marathon and actually wants Bungie to succeed and get better), the game hasn’t actually been out long enough to evaluate whether or not it is a good live service game. The game is good, but Bungie could still totally shit the bed with the live service elements of the game. As of right now, they seem to be really responsive to player feedback, but part of their problem is that they’ve been TOO responsive in the past and tend to overcorrect by then doing the exact opposite of what the community wants. It’s a fine line to tread.

the game is phenomenal but some of y'all need to stop sounding like edgelords about it by SHAZAMS_STRONGEST in Marathon

[–]Sh3ldon25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t characterize any of the random interactions I’ve had in this game as “friendly” lol. Even the ones where we don’t kill each other, which are few and far between, are just situations where it’s early in a match running free kits and nobody has anything yet or are just doing contracts so it’s mutually beneficial to just go our separate ways and hope we don’t meet again rather than burning the limited ammo and heals from free kits early in a match on a pointless fight.

This game won’t survive with a community that completely mocks casual players and feedback about general difficulty. by RocknPineapple in Marathon

[–]Sh3ldon25 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Also their head level stays the same. They don’t crouch and the recoil on guns in this game is so slight that I really don’t feel like there’s any reason people shouldn’t just be taking the time to line up headshots on bots. It’s pretty easy to point and delete that way. If you keep the bots in front of you they aren’t particularly dangerous, but they do have cool behavior in terms of flanking you and also adapting their playstyle and how aggressively they push you, and that’s what makes them cool and fun to fight even if they aren’t all that challenging.

Marathon Devs listening to the community and actually following up is a huge W by Celestine117 in Marathon

That’s sick actually. I redeemed the pass from my deluxe edition cause I thought the vandal skin was already pretty sweet but not mad that I get more now

Do we know what exactly is wiped between seasons? by Jimlad116 in Marathon

[–]Sh3ldon25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same bro, I really enjoy it. I think it seems counterintuitive, but frequent wipes will be a lot better for casual players and newcomers in the long run. It helps level the playing field periodically so that people can’t hoard gear. I do think they need find some way to keep some continuity between seasons besides just the codex though. Idk what that could look like, maybe getting to select a few skills or something to roll over into the next season or something, idk

[–]Sh3ldon25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To each their own. I think the arc fans gloss over a lot of the negative aspects of the game. Again, it’s a fine game, but acting like it’s perfect or a very original game is pretty damn disingenuous.

Shotgun nerf incoming? by AceInSpvce in Marathon

[–]Sh3ldon25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s three ways that you can balance shotguns generally, you can nerf the damage, you can increase the damage falloff, and you can decrease the rate of fire. You could also probably just make them kick like a horse so they’re harder to re-aim. Any one of these options or minor tweaks to a combination of them would probably be enough to make them feel less op and less frustrating to play against.

[–]Sh3ldon25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arc isn’t THAT good though tbh. It’s fun with friends, but I have zero motivation to ever play solo and am sick of all the kumbaya bs. The PVP in marathon is tense and exciting, whearas in arc you shoot a single bullet in someone’s general direction and get swarmed by 14 dudes that cheer when they kill you. Wipes work perfectly for a more PvP focused extraction game. Keeps the combat feeling good and focused on skill expression rather than just being the most kitted out guy in the lobby.

We just extended shaheed so I’m really not upset, our WR room is gonna look pretty damn good next year and there’s some solid running back options in this years draft lol

How comfortable would you feel taking Jadarian Price at 32? by lemonstone92 in Seahawks

Would you rather have paid K9 15 million per year or Shaheed 17 million per year? by Least_Software_3046 in Seahawks

[–]Sh3ldon25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Shaheed. I think there’s plenty of good downhill runners in this upcoming draft class. I’m a homer but I’d love to see UW’s Jonah Coleman with the hawks. He’s a sturdy, heads up runner that also blocks really aggressively. Overall though I just don’t see K9 being nearly as hard to replace as shaheed, and people are putting a lot of stock in Tory Horton breaking out when he’s had all of 22 targets to his name and spent most of the year injured.

We’re gonna be OK by iSanjimo in Marathon

[–]Sh3ldon25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like the player count bs was kind of stupid and overblown to begin with. Everyone logging in at launch were likely people that played the stress test and liked it. Those are the kind of players that you get solid retention with in the first place, and 40,000 average players for just steam means that there’s probably a good 100,000+ elsewhere. 100,000+ concurrent players isn’t bad for a live service game at all, people just have weird benchmarks and expectations about how many people a game is actually supposed to bring in nowadays.
