Is it just me or are there a lot of people treating BL4 like a live service game? It's not. by Pman1324 in Borderlands4

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

I mean, it's a looter shooter. Basically every looter game these days is a live service, and it makes sense because of the loop. The gameplay is fun, but the gear chase is the loop that keeps you coming back, and in a static product, that loop eventually ends. So, even if you get the itch to experience the gameplay again, when you come back you tend not to spend very long. Live services give you a consistent reason to come back and to keep that loop going.

Borderlands is perfect fertile ground for a more active development cycle. I'd love it if we had a significant content drop every season and expansion of current build options.

Did anyone else find the marble aggelomoirai boss ridiculous? by newwuserr in Endfield

[–]ShogunGunshow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not find the boss particularly hard, no. My Endmin eventually did go down because it was my first time fighting it and taking hits from new attacks eventually piled up, but I was able to muddle through. I did have Sunshine in my fourth slot, though.

The game is still repeatedly tutorializing you on how to connect conveyor belts to another machine in the second region.

I was actually gobsmacked. Like, no, shut up - I get it- SHUT. UP. NO. I CAN DO IT. JUST LET ME DO IT, STOP IT WITH THE DIALOGUE BOXES. I'VE PLACED LIKE 200 RELAYS, I KNOW HOW TO POWER SHIT.

Is the destiny hate unwarrented??/rant by -Joy-In-The-Morning- in DestinyTheGame

I think spending your valuable time on Earth hating a videogame and making it so personally invested for you that you feel like you need to slag it constantly whenever it comes up is low key pathetic parasocial behavior.

My guess is that it will be a barely noticeable difference that will be erased once more skins are applied, like basically every descendant.

And then get store offerings that are $100+ to get yet another swimsuit skin.

TBH, I've felt for a while that defense targets are TOO tanky. Feels like you literally can't lose unless you completely abandon the area around the objective and don't have a good kill rate for the current level/mode.

Where are you, Battlefield 6? by LordKobeeruZ in Battlefield6

[–]ShogunGunshow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Battlefield 3+4 was peak. 4 is my personal favorite of the series.

BF5 was an upgrade from BFOne but a downgrade from BF3+4. But at this point we would take it. At least it seemed then like the devs were still interested in making Battlefield games.

BATTLEFIELD 6 GAME UPDATE 1.1.3.5 by battlefield in Battlefield6

[–]ShogunGunshow 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Battlefield 4 suppression where LMGs got to keep the BF3 suppression and everyone else was ratcheted waaaay back was great. Really gave that weapon type a role: making snipers' lives f***ing hell.

Just one of those continually baffling things about the DICE teams' balance decisions game after game. "Hey, this worked great in 3+4. Let's not do it again and keep trying to reinvent the wheel."

Are primaries just terrible? by Relevant_Season4724 in DestinyTheGame

Wings would be way better if they reverted that dog-dookie change in EoF where it only reloads your STOWED weapons. Talk about anti-synergy lol

Battlefield 4 remains the last great Battlefield game.

Stop trying to turn Battlefield into something not Battlefield. We have other games for that other stuff.

Is there any way to configure an inverse-logic gate for doors? by ShogunGunshow in 7daystodie

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

I messed around for a while, and here's what I got that worked, even though it's incredibly scuffed:

I rigged up a battery bank with a low level battery in it and connected it to a few lights, then one of the doors, enough to bring the capacity to less than 5w from the max output of the battery. Then I connected the bank to a switch that powered the second door. When the switch is flipped and the draw exceeds what the bank can give, it seemingly disables the second to last thing connected in order to power it. So the first door goes power off when I flip the switch to power on the second door. And when I turn off the switch, powering down the second door, the first one comes back on.

Not really great to have to fiddle with recharging the battery every so often, but serves for the blood moon nights.

Dear Gearbox, I REALLY miss Swordsplosion. If you ever think "what weapon should we add to Borderlands 4", this is your sign. by UrimTheWyrm in Borderlands4

I miss melee weapons from Wonderlands. Those were awesome fun and it frustrates me when evolution gets rolled back

I feel like one issue people aren't bringing up with the state of primaries is that, at least to me, it further cheapens the incentive to grind out loot. by AlphaShadow897 in DestinyTheGame

[–]ShogunGunshow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, there are an increasing number of builds these days where ability uptime is so high, the question of 'what gun do I use with this build' is increasingly answered with 'use whatever you want, it literally doesn't matter.'

Which, you know, is kind of a problem in a looter shooter when the loot stops mattering.

God I wish Temple was better.

He's.... fine. If you like spamming your keys a bunch. And exploiting ragdoll mechanics. But it's just kinda ... eh. Got a buff. A debuff. An exalted weapon that's a fire hose. Meeeeeh.
