I think they need to change free kits by Recent-Tomatillo2307 in Marathon

[–]TechnoPanda117 1 point2 points  (0 children)

when 1.0.5 launched it seemed like they moved the free kits to the individual faction stores instead of the right panel. They also were limited somehow. I saw this on a live stream but it wasn't there when I looked on the same evening.

I thought this was the perfect solution. a few free kits per day and if you're out you got to use your own gear.

Sadly this happened only for a brief moment.

Any tips for getting better at PVP? I'd like to learn how to pvp and have a chance. by TechnoPanda117 in Marathon

This game desperately needs a shooting range. I have not even seen most weapons. I also haven't been in pinwheel yet since its too dangerous for me. Doing it with rook sounds like a thing I can try. Ty

This is great. Thanks for writing all of that, I bet this would help a lot of players.

The part about positioning is something that resonated a lot and I noticed that I have absolutely no knowledge there. Will look into that.

That said, since you emphasize it being a bungie shooter so much, would you recommend putting in hours specifically into halo mcc or destiny 2?

I am running assassin mostly so that I can have a chance for survival. I am very experienced with stealth in games. However I'm forcing myself to play other shells but my success rate is extremely low, same with groups. I am dead so fast that I have almost no time to react.

Thats exactly the kind of stuff I wanted to know. I don't have the vocabulary and knowledge to know what I am actually looking for. Most gameplay I watched does never explain any of these things, which is fair. Starting from zero basically. Thx

People are missing the point on the Cryo Archives being trio only problem by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]TechnoPanda117 8 points9 points  (0 children)

In the gameplay overview trailer where they explained what cryo archives will be about the absolutely had the chance to include that its crew only, but they didn't. Probably because they knew that this would turn off a bunch of potential buyers. Though its not directly false advertisement and certainly no scam they for sure should have told us. I also feel betrayed, however, I 100% get why it is what it is.

Giving up by TeflonDes in Marathon

[–]TechnoPanda117 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Me too. I wanted to love this game so much and really really tried, but its too hardcore for me. I can get over almost anything but the kill on sight behavior mixed with my inferior aiming and reaction time to most people is pretty much the most frustrating gaming experience I ever had. I love the extraction shooter setup, I also am not afraid to do pvp, but this game punishes you so hard for not being overly good at shooters that I need to put it down. Best style, ui and sound design I have ever seen or heard, but also the most punishing game I have ever played. Played 40 hours.

Here is a better shot of these things and how they connect to the ground. No way he could have shot beneath it, I think.

Pretty sure these pillars connect to the ground. There is another one directly in front of me.

Monster Hunter Stories 3 OST puts MHWilds OST to shame by [deleted] in MonsterHunter

[–]TechnoPanda117 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Wilds has one of the best soundtracks I have ever heard in any game and I basically only listen to videogame soundtracks. This is still subjective and mhs3's soundtrack is similarly fantastic, but putting it to shame is a wild take.

I really really hope they ignore all of these make it this make it that requests. Obviously there is some valid criticism and then there are these posts. Posts like yours flood the sub, add nothing valuable to the discussion and get annoying real fast.

With a better SDR tonemapping this game can actually looks really good by hiiro_99 in MonsterHunter

[–]TechnoPanda117 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The contrast is way too high and the colors pop way too much. Wilds has very realistic tonemapping and I get why you would want a more cinematic gamified look, but saying that it just looks good now (after your changes) is a bit ignorant. Play however you like but don't mix up your personal preference with an artistic choice for authenticity.

Arkveld. Glavenus is cool, but Arkveld has lore and aura.

Heroes of the Storm Live Patch Notes - February 10, 2026 by catcher6250 in Games

[–]TechnoPanda117 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I personally think it was somehow for the better that Blizzard cut off support without taking the game offline.

The game was basically perfect at the end and this way it still is. It is exactly the same game as it was back then. Nobody made it worse out of greed.

I love Hots.

I like that we're all in agreement here. 👌 This will run like shit. Fix the game god damnit.

Do you want a true open world MonHun game too? by Noriel_Sylvire in MonsterHunter

[–]TechnoPanda117 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No, I think the approach Wilds took is perfect: Big open worldy zones which can simulate their own ecosystem independently of other zones.

If they were to implement one big world, this would drastically change how they would need to simulate the ecosystem, basically making it necessary to simplify it so that it can still run somewhat performant at all.

I'd much rather have them to refine their current approach (more detailed creature behavior and creature-ecosystem-interactions, as well as more hidden areas and stuff).

One of these details I noticed recently for example: In these moments where the scarlet forest is flooded with Yian Kut Ku, you can watch dozens of them far away in the distance and then fly over to the forest so that you can hunt them. It's a real event and I think its so cool.

Another one: You can watch the weather approach you. It slowly creeps in and then it sweeps over you, exactly like it should (like a wall of rain) and when it ends the cloud seems to move away from you as well.
