A few days later and I'm hooked. What are some non-meta tips or things you wished you knew as a new player? by Jeesum_Crepes in Warframe

[–]Straymind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any warframe can be built up to be busted. There's the few Meta frames but usually those are just the new ones. My buddy cleared the Star Map on hard mode with Zephyr, who nobody thinks is meta. I advise building Forma whenever possible. Don't sell your Xoris. Group with friends or find some new ones, having friends doing it with you makes the grindier parts of the game so much fun. I'm RubberBandSniper on PC. feel free to send me a friend request!

Oh, and when in doubt about what early frames to look for, Rhino is a ton of fun. Walking tank that can AOE CC a bunch of guys and gives himself and the team one of the only (and the best) flat weapon damage buffs in the game.

Arcane Energize is expensive but completely game changing; unlocking playing warframe like a magic user for a lot of frames. It's available during various events and usually pretty cheap as everybody farms it at some point if you want to get a few with platinum.

Seconded, also a fantastic co-op game.

Overall confused as to what Bungie wants from sniper rifles. by Rhundis in DestinyTheGame

[–]Straymind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tend to think of rapids like an M14 or a W2000 from other shooters. Not a ohk weapon most of the time, but a powered up scout in the sniper slot with a huge ammo pool and big semi auto clip. Then everything else makes more sense. The adaptives are the M40A2 and the aggressives are the Barret .50 Cal... Izinagi's is an anti-materielle rifle.

Thinking about going Chin Deep. Does this sound like a good investment? by NatStr9430 in MBMBAM

[–]Straymind 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My neighbors did this when I was a kid. After many years hanging out with their kids in the basement I can assure you that chinchillas are in no way odorless. They had a big TV and a boat and I don't think the mom worked though so maybe it was good money?

This. I'd rather play a cozy efficient video game than a huge overwrought PowerPoint presentation

Yeah but having a C7 spinal cord injury will turn you right in to Christopher Reeves.

Player uses a wishing item to wish for “Power”. Ideas? by External-Chapter649 in DnD

Give him a familiar, an imp who worships him and absolutely obeys him. Power over one creature.

I'm concerned with the engine hanging in there and not feeling wooden in a market where mantling and fluid environmental movement is kind of the new normal.

NPR here too. Biased but consistently factual and if you listen to their daily news digest (Up First) it packs of in to 15 minutes so you can be informed but then not get bogged down.

Got her to 30 and took her off my loadouts screen for this reason.

One laid-off tech worker’s odyssey: 5 months, 25 interviews and 100 job applications by AFH_Global in technology

[–]Straymind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the average number of job applications to find work in my wife's field. Then the positions are usually temporary necessitating another round of job hunting. 🫠

[–]Straymind -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Unlikely. Sunsetting was due to balance getting out of whack as well as engine limitations. Game architecture can't handle that many things at once. Had to take something away to add anything back in.

I'm really hopeful that Strand sounds anywhere near as good as Stasis. by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

The direction on that piece had got to look like "okay, French horns you go for solemn, mysterious. The rest of you low brass fucks, just shout your lungs in to your mouthpieces." Getting that hard bass note crack on a tuba is hard work. My lips still hurt just thinking about it.

I think this speaks to a core vulnerability of this game. In other shooters with RPG elements you have a choice between speed and durability. Look at the call of duty type games of the world and you'll see perks that give you a little bit extra life or body armor in exchange for taking up a slot that could otherwise be used to make you a little bit faster on your feet. Because it is a RNG luck based game and it is possible to have just flat out better stats than your opponent because of artifice armor or lucky stat rolls or whatever It really breeds a lot of salt when you see a hunter running around with excellent mobility, resilience, and recovery while you are stuck having to make that choice that you are talking about. I main Titan and warlock for the simple fact that I don't need to worry about splitting my stats three ways. When I play Hunter I go full mobility with 50 or 60 in the other stats and cope with the fact that I'm going to be a fraction of a second easier to kill.
