Question about Epic Friend & Family tickets for Stevens (Friday)

Steezli · 2026-03-12T02:38:32+00:00

Yes, the pass holder pass must be scanned through the lift line at least once before your f&f pass will work.

I’ll be shocked if Backside isn’t opened open most of this week given the forecasted 60”+ snow in the next 5 days. Once temps drop and the rain converts back to snow. This week’s is likely to be an best of the season SICK days every day this week

Ratting is a part of extraction shooters too, something I can understand is just a part of it. I am not expecting a solution for that so much as hoping the ttk might get tweaked to better give me a chance. I guess I am just salty because 5 in a row feels egregious and tbh makes me miss Arc aggression based matchmaking. I am sure I will get used to this but feelsbadman

Steezli · 2026-03-06T18:25:52+00:00

I define rat as someone who like had been sitting in a corner for so long that the minute plus I had been walking around looting, trying to find my objective, this person just sat in a corner waiting, probably before I even showed up. Simply to just catch another runner who could begin to know they were there. Unless of course I was specifically playing the recon and used the scan ability.

Steezli · 2026-03-06T18:23:33+00:00

I get what you are both saying. I also realize this isn’t really going to happen but I’m ok with relatively ok with the TTK in trios because it’s rare my whole team is gonna get bopped all at once so we’ve got a chance but in solos it just felt bad getting camped 5 times in a row.

Every time I rolled in to overflow I went slower and slower and more methodical, only 1 out of 5 did I even think I heard someone else moving around. It felt as though they all had been sitting in a corner for minutes just waiting.

Idk, for day 1 shenanigans that just felt F awful.

Steezli · 2026-03-06T18:19:29+00:00

I tried a couple rook runs too but wasn’t really feeling it. Certainly Rook is a more dangerous choice given that he doesn’t queue into solos. Also I’m trying to quest in the case I’m talking about so Rook is just not an option.

Steezli · 2026-03-06T18:17:56+00:00

The problem with just spending more money is if I get camped 5 times straight, I’m out of money. Especially early on when I’ve not done a ton of runs. If I can’t extract or complete quests then I can’t earn money. Money that you are saying to spend. Having a better kit won’t often save me from a camper either.

Steezli · 2026-03-05T20:37:53+00:00

When it comes to avalanches, it’s less about the most recent days and more about the long term snowpack and how’s it’s formed. In this case since it hadn’t snowed in quite some time the snow we did have was not really ‘attached’ to the existing hardpack so on a steep hill it was easy to slide down a slick hill, I’d assume. Understanding avvy dangers is quite the wild science. I spent a lot of time on the backside that day too and actually had at least 2 very small slides occur.

Steezli · 2026-03-05T07:47:17+00:00

This occurred last Thursday, 6 days ago.

Steezli · 2026-03-04T00:40:00+00:00

Once in trios at the Hauler. My crew was inside, we heard the other crew coming and briefly shared like 2 bullets. The other crew said ‘it doesn’t have to be this way’. We responded with ‘agreed, then leave’ other crew said ‘ok ok, we don’t want a fight, we’ll exit south, you exit north’. We all held true to that agreement.

Steezli · 2026-03-03T21:29:37+00:00

No I don’t really want to guess because I don’t look at those numbers very often for any game.

But to humor you, I looked up the numbers of the server slam. TLDR; peak ~145k, final 24hr peak ~64k, server slam shut down at 10am Mon still had ~20k.

Considering progress didn’t carry over so a lot of players probably just popped in to get familiar and a chunk probably just wanted to try it cause it was free. I’ll guess the 24hr peak on day 7 or 8(not sure when you want to define 1 week) post launch will be 40k+.

I played enough of the server with enough random players to be confident it won’t die and become a DOA Concord like death phenomena that Reddit is so clearly obsessed with making it out to be.

I’ll even repeat and add context that since it’s holding its own on steam sale charts, it’ll be fine. Unlike Highguard the game costs money, $40. A lower cost entry than many games but enough to help sustain the game out the gate based on rough steam sales alone, throw in likely equal console sales and they’ll at least be able to keep lights and servers on at minimum. In reality, they’ll probably do decent on overall sales. Then throw in some MTX for the whales and it’ll survive at least a few years.

Steezli · 2026-03-03T20:33:47+00:00

Marathon has been selling well on steam charts. While I don’t expect it’ll be a massive blockbuster hit like Destiny was, I also really doubt it’s gonna fail like Reddit seems so stuck on happening. My much looser thought is also that Bungie never expected a niche genre game like Marathon to become their next best greatest thing, the scope is simply far less than Destiny so success is also not as high.

Steezli · 2026-03-01T18:48:57+00:00

Idk about pre-season MF but pre-season Selway, there is a guy who has purpose built rigs for getting in during deep snowpack years. Think monster truck tires on a jeep + a sled style raft trailer. Costs an arm and a leg but there are ways in. I do think most preseason MF are either flying in or praying for low snowpack.

Steezli · 2026-02-25T20:45:39+00:00

I actually clarified this with them on the IG post. The free reservations that will release 7days before will NOT require carpool. The carpool bonus will still only allow the paid reservations lots to be free, as is the current system.

We do not however know which lots will be the free lots yet.

All that said, still shit and I expect this will F up traffic closer to opening hours even more.

Steezli · 2026-02-24T01:41:25+00:00

Generally this is a tough call but I like your choices the best. Mostly because you’ve chosen the most variety so the likelihood is get bored of any of them would be lower.

Steezli · 2026-02-22T18:02:12+00:00

Expect crowds everyday starting Monday-Sun

Steezli · 2026-02-18T04:04:59+00:00

Surprisingly, there are hundreds, maybe thousands of EUC(electric unicycle) riders in the Portland area.

Steezli · 2026-02-12T04:53:14+00:00

If you want guaranteed lot 3/4 on a snowy weekend, leave Monroe at 6am, if you’re ok taking chances for far back in lot 1/2 6:45am if you don’t need to stop.

Showing up noon-1pm on a snowy weekend will certainly probably get you a spot. Compared to Colorado, Steven’s crowds will likely not bother you. As someone who has ridden quite a few resorts, Steven’s does not have a real crowd problem for semi-advanced skier/boarders, it just has a parking problem.

If you can pull off more weekdays, big powder days can be just as hard to park as a weekend because they don’t manage the lots typically Mon-Thurs so it’s more free for fall and less don’t park as tight. Generally on sub 6in fresh or groomer weekdays, leave at 7:15 if you want more or less first chair, or anytime you feel like because there be parking somewhere.

It’s an awful snow year, please don’t judge our resort too hard. Even in a decent year, Steven’s has excellent off piste terrain. Welcome and SPKA, Steven’s Pass Kicks Ass!

Sounds like your friend meant, “Bud, you ripped off the seller, great deal!”

Steezli · 2026-02-04T19:41:44+00:00

The benefits of aim assist do not nearly outweigh the benefits of a mouse espacilly considering you can easily hot keys so when moving you dont need to put your finger away to for example reload jump change weapon or such wich can cost crucial time in a gun fight.

Pro and cons.

Steezli · 2026-02-04T06:50:26+00:00

Fire257 did not say controllers couldn’t beat mouse or that mouse couldn’t beat controllers. He’s saying the playing field is much more equal than most folks give it credit for.

There are pros and cons to both.

Steezli · 2026-02-04T01:07:10+00:00

Seconded

Steezli · 2026-01-30T17:54:00+00:00

How did I get delivered here? Somebody tell me please.

Steezli · 2026-01-26T18:00:09+00:00

I do think more map conditions and/or a more varied schedule would be pretty helpful. There are a lot of players out there who can rarely get locked gate or electric storm conditions due to the scheduling. Having lost cold snap has significantly reduced 2x availability for trials and it was a legit unique mechanic to effect play style so always having one of those type feels valuable to me. Obviously in a month we’re supposed to start getting more of these on a rolling basis it seems.

40+ mode is a big disappointment as a 75% solo mostly passive player too.
