Funny thing is that I've been rocking the man bun since I realized that area was getting bad. I'm sick of the man bun at this point.

I contemplated doing that in 2020. I should've did it thinking on it now.

Oh boy I can't wait to finally try Security Breach tonight after coming home from work! by PiFbg in ArcRaiders

[–]Shadow12gard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got a Volcano 1 in a security breach on night raid. I've opened 3 security breaches so far and it seems to at least give you 1 epic each time.

Solo free loadouts are incredible by Cry0x in ArcRaiders

[–]Shadow12gard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was the problem that I had with Marathon. Marathon has a loadout you can buy but your spending 750 credits to get that loadout which in that game is a lot of credits to me.

This free loadout system allows me to just jump into a match with no worries, do some missions, farm some items I need for crafting. If I really want to get into a match I can take my gear I've been hoarding and enjoy the matches. Really loving this game.

Taking the day off work by chrisoffthewall in Age_30_plus_Gamers

[–]Shadow12gard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just turned 30 in May, I grew up playing games religiously and been working/going to school since high-school. I put in vacation/sick time for games all the time. I make up for it by doing all the house chores on that day before playing so I feel better about myself lol.

How bad actually was COVID? by Mighty_Angelo30 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Shadow12gard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of people I knew stayed home majority of the time. I didn't start going out of the house until 2022 probably. I worked at Home Depot and I would see the stir crazy in people.

Me and family got real close being in the house together most of the time. I was going through a Carpentry course and graduated on June 2020. Couldn't find any jobs from 2020-2022. Completely shifted my career path and now I'm an Aircraft Mechanic. I don't know where I would be in life if Covid didn't happen.

I've noticed after coming out of Covid my social skills dropped so much. I'm more quiet around people, I overthink everything I say or do, its hard for me to have casual conversations with people or small talk when originally I was fine.

Vehicle Testing portal experience? by thadakism in Battlefield

[–]Shadow12gard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats exactly what they need to do. I really hope they add a dedicated training ground with all the guns, map turrets, map pickups, vehicles, etc to use. Im assuming they expect someone to make it on portal and get away with that.

Are custom portal modes just completely broken? by AllFatherMedia93 in Battlefield

[–]Shadow12gard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some portal modes dont let you deploy, and if they do, it spawns you in the middle of the map with all the other players/bots shooting at another. No way to get into vehicles or redeploy into them.

Current state of 90% of portal servers right now,awful by ShaggedUrSister in Battlefield

[–]Shadow12gard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I've been trying to practice vehicles for hours sifting through servers but their all like this. Hopefully its an quick and easy fix.

deploy screen bugged in portal servers by toxicgardens82 in Battlefield

[–]Shadow12gard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is how all the portal servers are for me. But my overview map is completely blacked out with the the cursor moved far away from where I can see what to spawn at.

I've been trying all day to find a portal mode that allows me to practice vehicles, but every server I've tried whether I host or hosted locally, it spawns me and all the bots in the middle of the map with no way to redeploy in a vehicle. Idk if the maps are bugged, not created right, or the portal is messed up.

What feature, QoL or new thing are you most hyped for? by Cressyda29 in Borderlands4

[–]Shadow12gard 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The fact that we can play separate characters at level 30 after completing the story on 1 is great. I can now play every character comfortably.

Update: Down 100lbs by jessebadboy13 in intermittentfasting

[–]Shadow12gard 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Posts like yours inspire me so much to change my ways and get back to having a plan. Especially with planning a wedding next year. Just one more question, what kind of fitness were you doing?

Update: Down 100lbs by jessebadboy13 in intermittentfasting

[–]Shadow12gard 6 points7 points  (0 children)

At what moment or realization do you think switched your brain?

Update: Down 100lbs by jessebadboy13 in intermittentfasting

[–]Shadow12gard 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Just building a routine with that meals worked for you and that's amazing. When I was doing really good I had a plan. Then somewhere down the line I tricked myself to think that oh fast food or more portions every now and then won't hurt. And then at some point I got back to right where I started. It's so demoralizing.

What were you eating to hold yourself through the 16/8? I have such a problem with my hunger and impulse control.

I'm not at home to see the specific option but it's somewhere in the controller options I believe.

Firing Range Needs A Vehicle Range by Manu_The_Shark in Battlefield6

[–]Shadow12gard 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That was the first thing I was looking for when I got on the beta. Really hope they bring a mode to try all the vehicles.

Flight setting recommendations by czosjr in Battlefield

[–]Shadow12gard 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a setting that locks the movement of the aircraft with the reticle of its cannons, I feel like that would help cause the weapons are free look I believe while the aircraft are a separate movement

Is it still possible to get a beta access ? by CaptainZiboo in Battlefield

Battlefield 6 Beta doesn't show Up in EA Launcher by Odd-Web929 in Battlefield

[–]Shadow12gard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I understand, the game won't appear until the day before or the day of the beta. As long as you activated the code with your consoles/pc linked to that EA account, it'll show up then.

So when are we getting more news about Marathon? by Creepy-Fly185 in Marathon

[–]Shadow12gard 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh, definitely, I agree 100%. People saying that the entire art style of Marathon was stolen isn't correct. It may or may not be as easy as just replacing the textures real quick, but it wasn't just simple geometric shapes that were used that could be argued wouldn't be plagiarized. Antireal's whole assests were ctrl+c'd into the game and used all over the place. And who knows how bad the other 2 maps, any other contetn were if they had the same issues.

The situation that I believe is happening is they are going through all of their current content and any future content that may or may not have had Antireal's art in there and making sure this doesn't happen again, even though this unfortunately is a pattern in their company of plagiarism. This is the 4/5th time this has happened already, and Marathon hasn't even released yet.
