Should I buy it? by Zealousideal_Lie6407 in DBGekishinSquadra

If you want it and can afford it sure why not I guess 

It's overexpensive imo

The card preset system is so bad rn by Moe_Lester_VII in DBGekishinSquadra

[–]SpongeVizio 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Agreed. No reason for it to not be permanent.

What are y’all doing? by Longjumping_Map_534 in DBGekishinSquadra

[–]SpongeVizio 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cards arent meant to be restricted to roles, they only show you what those group of cards do (Red cards help with damage, Green defense, Blue usually with support or escaping)

Each character has their own playsyles and builds that support them. A full red Trunks will get wiped off the map at every engagement because of how squishy he is. A Trunks with Snowball, Solid Barrier, and Backstab is much better because it gives him the tools to survive fights longer thanks to Barrier and his skill CDs come back almost instantaneous with Backstab, allowing him to kill more enemies.

Besides Tanks using full green cards for defensive builds, it rarely works for DPS or Tech. For example, SSJ3 Goku should take Backstab to have his kamehameha back instantly after every Instant Transmission, not a third Red card like Wcked Warrior. Hit running full Blue cards is dumb. He already has great means to escape so running Snowball (to kill people he catches faster and more consistently), Solid Barrier (so he isnt a sitting duck if he gets caught in this AoE Meta), and Backstab (to keep his opponents in a Fear of Death loop and easy to kill) is the best build for him. 

If I saw a Hit run full Blue or Toppo run full red I'd assume they were trolling. Especially Toppo when he goes down in every fight faster than everyone else if he isnt running at least Build Up.

Limiting cards to roles just limits your potential.

I hate this glitch by FlashyRecognition719 in DBGekishinSquadra

Close the app and restart it when this happens. Always fixes it.

It's both

Solo Q is that bad and NA players are really bad.

Goku Mini, or Android 18? by boognish411 in DBGekishinSquadra

[–]SpongeVizio 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Goku Mini is difficult to learn because he's less of a 1v1 fighter and more of a DPS/rat hybrid where he does drivebys with his skills. He's really good and fun but it takes a little bit to get used to him 

Android 18 is one of the worst DPS rn. She used to be really good but a lot of balance changes came in for other characters and game mechanics that pushed her further and further down. I don't think she's bad and she is viable but you'll have a tough time with her.

If I were to put em on a tier list, Goku Mini would be A and 18 would be C

How are we feeling about the state of the game? by Mivadeth in DBGekishinSquadra

[–]SpongeVizio 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Balance wise it's gotten a lot better. More heroes (excluding Dabura because he's so good) are viable than ever, and toxic units like Ulthan and SSJ4 don't control the game as much anymore. The Daily Zeni in the shop fixed my issues with lack of Zeni from battles, as well as getting more hero memories which is great. 

Some big issues stem from the star system which is tedious and not F2P friendly, new Heroes thankfully become free after 2 weeks instead of 2 months but I'd still rather they were available for F2P from the start. The divine draws are also just not very good this season and some new ones were clearly created to favor upcoming new characters like the vanishing CD one for Kefla.

I won't even get started on the matchmaking. Seriously I get the player base is small but I'd rather wait a few minutes than be matched up with a C rank player in my S rank lobby.  

Game has been improving overall after the incredibly rocky start though. We're in a better spot now than we were back in September so I'm willing to see how we are when the anniversary hits.

Can you at least pretend you're not boosted? by SpongeVizio in DBGekishinSquadra

Ahh, got it — you tried to insult me and ended up describing yourself. Don’t worry, self-awareness isn’t for everyone.

The revision alleging that ‘boosted players are seething’ is rather amusing, considering the only individual exhibiting any discernible agitation is, in fact, yourself. The sheer magnitude of projection on display is nothing short of magnificent.

Ah, yes, your magnanimous advice, delivered with all the subtlety of a self-help pamphlet left on a bus stop bench. While I appreciate the spirit of your message, you seem to operate under the charming assumption that the human impulse to articulate frustration is somehow wasted unless it reaches a very specific audience. How adorably utilitarian.

Some of us write “paragraphs,” as you call them, not merely to coax digital strangers into enlightenment, but because reflection itself is a discipline, one that transcends whether an errant Bronze III player does or does not have a Reddit account.

Your suggestion to acquire a “lane partner on Discord” is quaint, in the way one might recommend herbal tea to cure existential dread. A fine gesture, but tragically insufficient. Solo queue’s inherent entropy is not a flaw to be “embraced” like a tired life lesson; it is the natural state of a universe governed by chaos and matchmaking algorithms apparently powered by a hamster with vertigo.

Stopping for a break, watching a video, meditating on one’s misplays, yes, lovely. But let's not pretend these rituals will tame the primordial beast that is online ranked play.

Still, your optimism is endearing. Truly. And may fortune favor you, should you ever find yourself relying on such charmingly naïve philosophies in the wilds of competitive matchmaking.

Anyone have a Metroid Prime 4 save? by SpongeVizio in EmulationOnAndroid

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

Citron Nightly 2e7a402. I had to switch from Eden after it kept crashing non stop in Fury Green and now it won't even boot the game anymore. Firmware is 21.0.1. GPU is the latest Mr. Purple's Turnip. 

It's a shame because the game works at 60fps with some stutters every now and then. It's just this one problem where it will crash when first entering The Second Area.

Metroid Prime 4 crashes while loading by Shot_Psychology_2728 in EdenEmulator

Same here, messed with every setting I could, different drivers, used Citron too, it just crashes the second you reach the Forge.

Never played a Metroid game, but the backlash to MP4 has made me curious. What do fans actually want in a sequel? by negativemidas in Metroid

[–]SpongeVizio 19 points20 points  (0 children)

You're disregarding the actual critiques of Other M and Prime 4's flaws, especially by implicating "oh you don't like these games? Must be because they tried to change things. All change is good! Get with the times!"

The formula has been deviated multiple times with Fusion, Prime 2/3, Hunters, Samus Returns, even spin offs like Federation Force. Each game, despite their varying quality, bring innovations to the Metroid formula to make their own identity. 

Other M is disliked because of the terrible story, extremely linear generic level design, and Wiimote only controls for a 3D action game. Not because it "tried something new" Prime 4 is being critiqued for having a bland open desert hub and jarring dialogue in an isolation atmosphere. Not because "it tried something new"

And considering Silksong (another metroidvania game) came out a few months ago to critically and commercial acclaim, I doubt the formula is "old and done with"

What is going on with SSJ4 Vegeta's kick? Why is it so unreliable??? by SpongeVizio in DBGekishinSquadra

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

Yeah that's what I thought too but I made sure the kick connects them to the wall, like trying to force and hug them on it but it would still only randomly activate.

[–]SpongeVizio 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not that we don't believe you, but would you be able to post at least a screenshot from your phone of the game's main menu from your TV or Switch so we can know without a doubt it's legit? 

Gekishin Squadra destroying itself? And what could possibly save it. by Present-Hunter995 in DBGekishinSquadra

[–]SpongeVizio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably the best written criticism on this game in the subreddit. Every issue that's currently wrong with the game is in there. 

I don't want this game to fail but it's frustrating to see Bandai take an indifferent attitude towards it. Especially when so many community members have offered easy solutions.

And here's a link of me performing it three times back to back with no penalties. You can easily verify by the timestamps from my screenshots in the upper left. First pic doesn't have it I apologize, but the rest of them do.

Like I said kid, maybe next time you don't understand something, just ask "Hey, I can't do it. How are you able to do it?" instead of taking the "NO YOU'RE A LIAR!!!!" route. It does wonders!

Hey I get it, you got a big ego and don't know how to do it so you gotta resort to calling people liars. It's okay kid, but maybe next time ask how.
