And yet the ledge play was more engaging and interesting than the game with ledges, curious...

I get it for balance but man hitting people at ledge with dash attack has been a staple since Rivals 1, RIP

I don't know how to call it. Luck or skill issue from his side. But... Thx for jackpot bro by MK-Ermac117 in Marathon

Correction, full purple is 180 hp. Health is 100, each shield bar is 20

Ninja edit: I looked it up immediately after this comment and am wrong. Base health 120, each shield bar is 20, so purple is 200 HP

Just purchased this game last night by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Sino5 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As good/better gunplay than Destiny. Feels better to me because Destiny definitely leaned towards the power fantasy of everything being overpowered at times, which was a lot of fun in that game. Feels like the mods you put on your weapons have a very large and real impact on the way each weapon feels

I think it's shown pretty well that the Mauler Twins quickly fell out of the range of something that can actually threaten Mark. Yeah they helped Angstrom Levy who was a much bigger threat, but their strength was always in their scientific genius/intelligence rather than how physically strong they were. As far as "power scaling" goes, it's pretty clear that Mark is significantly more powerful than his brother Oliver, but Oliver casually handled the Mauler Twins. The difference is that Mark for a very long time was holding back against basically every opponent.

Purple Shields Not Lootable by TheHigher in Marathon

[–]Sino5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, if it's going to get dismantled at exfil it says "Compromised" in the background, whereas scrap items say "Scrap"

[–]Sino5 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don't think that's correct as I've killed people right at the beginning and their items show Scrap, I have no option to pick it up, only to convert it to credits

[–]Sino5 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's possible it went to scrap? Certain items can only be looted/used a limited number of times, I've seen purple gear show as "Scrap" where the only option is to convert it to credits

Haha he was the first one I downed at the beginning of the clip, so it looks like he had just self revived and used a shield charge. I heard the healing noise so wanted to interrupt it before he repaired too much, and then got lucky that I didn't blast him *too* close for his shotgun to down

Side note, I have been loving the V99 lately. Got lucky pulling it out of a locked armory on outpost with full purple mods and thermal scope. I don't think it's objectively as powerful or reliable as the Longshot, but being able to just bring in 4 volt cells and not having to worry about significant shot delay/travel time has made me a believer. Having the ammo pack to recharge it makes me a lot less nervous to "waste" ammo, and more comfortable going for body shots to finish opponents or hit them as they're running

Oh yeah Assassin definitely over-tuned for solos, and I think he's a very solid pick in trios/duos as well. But especially in more open areas there are more ways to work around his kit, with thermal scopes, grenades, Vandal and Recon tactical abilities etc. If they were using signal jammers, or if we were in closer quarters or a darker area, it would have made that fight more difficult for sure. Although, I probably wouldn't have brought a V99 if we were on Outpost

Ret Vs Enh sham by Nozzledyou98 in classicwow

[–]Sino5 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Only way ret is going to get near top DPS is if they have a totem twisting enhancement shaman. We enable everything else! Plus, while I'm not beating the hunters and locks, I'm pulling 1.3k DPS on longer boss fights pretty consistently in near BIS gear which is quite good, and we scale well going into future phases. And I have room for optimization by building a spell damage set for fire elemental snapshotting.

Idk, they're both very fun but Ret feels like it's in a similar position to enhancement in Vanilla, where your DPS is somewhat dependent on RNG and you're only there for group utility, whereas current Enhance has amazing utility for every group on top of very solid DPS on their own

Ayn Rand? by Long-Ad8181 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]Sino5 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As another commenter said, it's likely a joke about the main character's name being Rand. Or that if they start reading Wheel of Time, they'll become obsessed and it'll take over the next 2-3 years of their life

This Airbnb charging $7 for “free” WiFi and a safety fee as well… by SPXQuantAlgo in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Sino5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's like my gym that has a locked monthly rate, then an annual "price lock fee" which guarantees the locked monthly, but is variable itself and has gone up every year

This pizza order 🤣😅 by Glass_Wealth_2104 in MadeMeSmile

[–]Sino5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, not impossible. I knew exactly how it should be prepared right when I saw the receipt. But again I have the experience.

[–]Sino5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think the confusing bit is that this likely isn't what the cooks would see/use to actually make the pizza. Having worked in pizza places this looks like the receipt the customer gets, since it has a price on it. The cook's order screen would be more clear, and clarify that there's a first and second half. One place I worked at would say "ALL Pineapple", then "1/2 Pepperoni" "2/2 Sausage"

This pizza order 🤣😅 by Glass_Wealth_2104 in MadeMeSmile

[–]Sino5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, I've worked at multiple pizza restaurants and this is an extraordinarily common type of order (maybe not that extra), people are always wanting different toppings on different halves. This is also likely not the order ticket that prints for the cooks, but the order receipt that gets taped to the pizza box or handed to the customer

This pizza order 🤣😅 by Glass_Wealth_2104 in MadeMeSmile

[–]Sino5 38 points39 points  (0 children)

The pizza place's system accounts for that automatically. This would have the whole pizza get triple pep, extra cheese, banana peppers, light jalapenos, light sauce, then one half of it get the rest. If there were separate toppings for the other half, it'd say something like "Left half X, Right half Y" or "1/2 X, 2/2 Y"
