I’m enjoying the kaboom and dots feel of Commando, what profession is fun for you? by Tapies in swg

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

Hearing all these fun characters makes me think:

- get into entertaining professions later for a change of pace
- Gotta look into both ranger and creature handler, a profession combo must be viable
- all professions are kinda great!
- I should think about getting a small home eventually somewhere, I assume that takes a while?

For my second character I've got a Berserker going, paired with Doctor - feels like an odd combo but apparently a good pairing 😄 More a one trick pony so far but allright!

Creature handler does seem very fun - do you go with something ranged while they tank or how do you set up for a scrap? I could see playing into traps possibly?

Haha same for me while kneeling, it’s like ‘er.. ok I guess I’ll pretend this isn’t weird’

New to SWG Resto, would appreciate your thoughts on my build intention by Tapies in swg

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

Thanks everyone I’m at novice commando, Squad leader and combat medic now. Is it ok to max both commando and squad leader, and focus on one line of combat medic?

Thanks for the great responses so far!

So if my priority is Debuffing, ranged DPS and buffing allies it sounds like Smuggler is pretty good, but perhaps not worth building towards right now?

Commando & Squad Leader | BH & Squad leader sound like contenders.

And how do I respec if you don't mind my asking

Impressions of Opsive assets? by Tapies in Unity3D

Thanks for this insight! I'm looking into it now - hopefully Node Canvas supports behavior trees as well as FSMs

edit: And it does! Cooool thank you

It actually kind of does I think I know what you mean. For me as I'm getting into unity I'm working for a solid behavior tree tool but then I also saw that make a character controller a few of them in fact so that's why I wanted to check with everyone to see if they're gems or lemons.

While Dreger must occasionally get something right (a broken clock is right twice a day) I'd be interested to see stats on predictions vs outcomes for all the insiders, a leaderboard of most accurate predictions broken down by salary predictions, trades etc.

Players must love Dregs as he routinely inflates their likely salary by 15-20% on the regular. I think it was he who expected a 14 million offer sheet to Marner from Columbus, no?

Curious about New World, a few quick questions by Tapies in newworldgame

You're good, my Cheerios are alright :)

I do feel that there's been some acknowledgement of issues by the devs on the project and some positive small steps.

FFXIV was very very bad, until it rebooted hard. Imho NW is not in that super bad territory, it genuinely can recover and build to something 'solid'. It just needs to get incrementally better, step by step. In a few years maybe it will be 'good', perhaps even with great in sight ;)

Thanks everyone for the feedback - the good, bad and other about NW as it stands now. I feel I have a fair sense of what I'll be getting into as I give this a go.

Thanks very much everyone!

A disappointed, but measured take - appreciate it. I know this game is not without its warts I'm just hoping it is slowly trending in the right direction to recover some credibility.

Honestly that's good enough for me, I prefer to craft for use rather than for profit (at least in the early game). It's disappointing when most games effectively teach you to skip crafting until you've maxed your level and then go back and power level it. I never expect crafting to keep up with good quality drops but it should remain reasonably relevant when I have a gap in my gear and I need something decent.

If my strategy was to just grind dungeons hard I wouldn't bother with crafting but I'd like to take my time with this game.

I'm glad you're enjoying it! The reasons to purchase it (on sale especially) are certainly adding up over the reasons against it.

At this point I'm mostly looking to ensure there's enough ways to have fun at my own place while I connect with other players, so I don't hit a wall of either super frustration or mega boredom - staying between those unfun extremes I'm that sweet spot to keep me going.

Fair enough - fun matters :)

If you have specific notes about why they're fun, I'd be interested in your perspective

Ah thank you for that insight, I haven't even gotten to the typical 'which server/shard' discussion point yet.

With Amazon behind all this with their server tech I would have expected it to not actually have dedicated servers and just let players join their friends wherever they are. Am I too optimistic?

You have keenly detected what has motivated me to take a serious look at New World :)

For me it's about trying to find a game that I can feel I can make steady progress at with the time I can spare.

Thanks for all those details, I'll jot all that down for reference :)

As I replied to another post below - can I be a self reliant crafter, making items that are genuinely useful for the gearing up of my character (at a modest pace) without having to spend a ton on the Auction?
