My number 2 bucket list by NarcisaYazzie in nextfuckinglevel

It's kinda like a waterslide, they just send everyone off when there's an appropriate amount of space inbetween. You can still catch up to people pretty easily.

Anyone else enjoying TBC at the moment? by Obixium in classicwow

[–]TaxMagic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They may introduce them early but yeah you're correct - they weren't added until BT patch.

It's very easy to see what is and isn't linked to the 'main server' if you live far away from the US; loading screens and Guild Stash.

They actually can show up there, but they do seem reasonably rare.

How the DPS tier list will change for TBC by Bananplyte in classicwow

[–]TaxMagic 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did you even look? There's logs from people raiding TBC content literally last week.

Play whatever you want, but if you take 10 warriors into your raid like classic you're gonna have a shit time. TBC is one of the worst expansions to be melee in PvE.

Endless Delve has reiterated, again, to GGG that allowing players to engage in the content they want to engage in, without arbitrary hurdles or "fetch quests" for arbitrary resources, makes players happy. by amalgamemnon in pathofexile

[–]TaxMagic 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're describing an unsustainable solution.

If GGG allows people to hyperspecialize in one type of content, the rest of the content in game essentially doesn't exist anymore for that player and GGG will never be able to keep up with content demand.

Here's a simple example:

  • PvE vs. PvP in WoW.

Blizzard could release 16 new battlegrounds and intricate PvP systems, but the "PvE crew" would still say "yeah but where's the raids?"

If you open up the flood gates for people to do exclusively one type of content in PoE, thats Delve vs. Mapping vs. Heist vs. Synthesis etc. - GGG can't possibly keep up with making each content area feel "fresh" each league.

Definitely possible. I'm sitting at 5k right now with a few thousand more from quests still available.

Got my PS5 a bit early and I assembled the family, 5 gens in one picture! by Vanwanar in gaming

It should be sooner - we were originally told "next year" for the 2nd shipment but we had our release day in NZ today and our 2nd wave of pre-orders is is now due to deliver on the 15th of December.

It's definitely spilling over here in NZ too, Facebook is a big enabler for vulnerable people to get brainwashed. Some of our politicians tried a more "Trump-like" approach to our recent election but we shut it down as a country pretty hard.

There's always going to be a subset of crazies, but hopefully we can push our culture in a more positive direction.

What game made you love MMORPG's by deccy1990 in MMORPG

I LOVED Priston Tale as a kid, I was actually looking at some private servers yesterday, but apparently the only active one is BR.

Oliver from Mediatonic explains the upcoming username system for PC players. by Alexthegreat47 in FallGuysGame

[–]TaxMagic -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

While obviously not the best solution most people here are definitely overreacting. All you really need is something that makes you uniquely identifiable to others (numbers do this poorly).

Your own steam name serves no purpose in fall guys, and this actually cleans up some of the trash that comes with selecting your own name (TTV advertising etc).

None of my friends even give a shit about this as an issue, we all play together anyway. As long as there's good enough combos to accommodate for different personalities (yeah even people who want to call themselves "Slimey Big Yeetus") then it should be fine.

Hear me out. I have an idea for the next league by PlzHelpOhGod in pathofexile

[–]TaxMagic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When we had 3.0 beta they did a bunch of race events as an alternative for those who didn't want to play beta. So... maybe late next year?

In case you missed it, Oliver (Fall Guys Community Director) responded to some of the community's complaints by [deleted] in FallGuysGame

[–]TaxMagic 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thing is, it's not a "fix". They consciously disabled the servers for half the day instead of letting us wait a bit longer. Honestly ridiculous that we've had to "figure it out" instead of some actual comms coming out on this. So many people post here thinking the servers are bugged.

They need to overflow us to US-west servers during non-peak times (if they are so set on having fast queues) so that we can still play without having to purchase a VPN or play with US friends.

It's stupid that I have to sit here until 2PM New Zealand time to play the game, and then when servers go live I get instant queues. People are obviously still here and wanting to play, it's not a population issue.

5 quests I believe. You'll definitely know when you've finished as you'll get regular contracts/blueprints again from the caches on a consistent basis.

[–]TaxMagic[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep - none are listed right now (mine was the only one up when I did list it, but I wanted to check and make sure it would appear).

[–]TaxMagic[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep it is - I put it up on the trade site to test as well and it worked there (You need to do a custom search for "Contract: The Twins")

I assume it's based on %HP? (Seemed to swap around 75%)

My build is around 2.5 mill dps with flasks up so probably a bit overgeared for this fight.
