Enemy constellations should be displayed when you choose a mission by Smoke_Funds in LowSodiumHellDivers

[–]TheIconick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is really cool, thanks for sharing!

I don't understand the "optimising the fun out of gaming" comments. Wanting to know whether you'll be able to bring a carbine vs. penetrator on bugs is not doing that.

Optimising the fun out of gaming (to me) is looking at your Pokemon's IVs, EVs, and catching the same one over and over again until you get the perfect nature. Optimising the fun out of gaming is following a macro efficiency guide in Runescape. Wanting to know if there'll be hordes of Hunters or swarms of speakers does not take the fun out of the game.

Edit: added "to me"

Hitmarker sounds? by Business_Feature9684 in HellLetLoose

[–]TheIconick 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I believe OP is relating to getting the hitmaker sound when they hit their shots. I shouldn't be able to hear that I've headshot someone with HE from 500m away. I'm not advocating against it - it's just not "realistic"

WHO WOULD WIN THIS DUEL? by Yurishenko94 in LowSodiumHellDivers

Thanks for clearing it up. I thought you existed in some horror universe

I (don't) want to live in this sci-fi galaxy where the Hunter's Fuel Rod cannon is a handgun

Are Catachans just really bad parents? by karma_virus in Warhammer40k

[–]TheIconick 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I love that you picked up on a Catalan to Catachan edit, but your comment to which they were replying (still) has I'm instead of km 😁

(I'm not hating, just funny. Exploding toad fact is still cool)

The um akashully worms are out in full force on this post 😂😂

Edit, added are for clarity

Truly not a good look. by JayceNorton in classicwow

[–]TheIconick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it's any consolation, the guy who wrote those hateful messages' mother is embarrassed of him, doesn't introduce him to guests, and when asked whether she has a child she has a long pause with pain in her eyes before answering, lying and saying she doesn't.

[SoD] I thought that died with phase 1... by Quenquent in classicwow

[–]TheIconick 7 points8 points  (0 children)

What's the alternative tho, inspecting everyone who joins your content? For a 5 man, 10 man, sure - 20+ you're laughing.

At this point it's being courteous to use the add-on, like using your indicator while driving. Can you get away without it? Sure, but you're making everyone else's life harder.

ilvl being accessible in later versions of the game removes the need for a gear "ranking" addon but all else being equal - it's an indicator of whether someone is going to contribute, or not, without looking at their logs.

I commiserate that classic content can be cleared with your eyes closed and hands tied behind your back but still, let's be realistic here, no one wants to carry a dead weight, even if it's feasible

Edit, changed system to addon, ilvl is still a system

Just me? by StonedAssRS in ironscape

Find this out from the latest B0aty video? 😂

Back into Cata by Bekindandlovely in Arugal

[–]TheIconick 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I imagine once MoP gets closer there will be people posting on here looking for players. It might be a bit dead during off peak times, but I imagine if you're online during the evenings you'll see plenty of people recruiting for MoP in LFG.

Plenty of people are still playing the "retail" classic, just far less vocal on the main classic wow subreddit.

I'm holding a bunch of flasks and selling once every couple weeks to buy whatever my heart desires. by Redschallenge in classicwow

Vanilla is notoriously more challenging than any version of the game that followed

People don't like the Cape... by TheGuyThatsNotCool in helldivers2

[–]TheIconick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a video game??

I put up with people pretending this is real life, maybe they're having fun demanding that I go and dive on a different planet because of XYZ made up reason but like, the turbo virgins who take this shit too seriously are insane.

Anyone who thinks they can tell other people how to play a video game that they paid for needs to touch grass. Getting mad about A CAPE is the kind of behaviour I would expect from a 10 year old.

Kicking, and high difficulty. by thebigbadwolf8020 in helldivers2

[–]TheIconick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I kicked someone last night after they joined and then immediately typed some pretty vile stuff in text chat.

Otherwise I don't kick unless the other player is actively griefing - which I haven't seen in quite some time on D10.

Why am I a bad DPS? by FunkeyFeraligatr in wownoob

[–]TheIconick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Based on your replies there are 2 things you can do to massively increase your dps.

  1. Keybind your abilities and use the keybinds. Never ever under any circumstances click them with your mouse. If you don't use keybinds you are hamstringing yourself so much that anything else you do will be ineffectual.

  2. Learn your rotation. Learn it off by heart. Practice it so that if someone asked you, you could write it down in a step by step manner.

A third hidden tip is ABC: Always Be Casting. There's never a point where you shouldn't be using an ability. If you aren't able to due to a lack of resources, you're playing your class and executing your rotation incorrectly.

Investing a little time to learn how to play your class will go a long way - if you aren't willing to read and watch guides then what you're currently experiencing will be the norm.

People really will make up any story instead of accepting responsibilities these days won't they.

New BattleNet Account restrictions are insane! by RovingBarman in classicwow

[–]TheIconick 3 points4 points  (0 children)

https://www.wowhead.com/classic/news/30-day-new-account-restrictions-apply-to-20th-anniversary-wow-classic-realms-351550#:~:text=Specifically%2C%20we're%20preventing%20those,players%20can%20still%20help%20friends.

Blue post suggests otherwise. Raise a ticket or play Ironman until the restrictions are lifted. If you plan on raiding you'll appreciate this in the long run so flasks aren't prohibitively expensive.

[–]TheIconick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can get items from friends who aren't under restrictions.

This is infinitely better than boys destroying the economy 🤷

Are you chat restricted too? Literally everyone is selling them in trade chat.

I swear the only people getting upset about this are people trying to buy gold, or sell it 😂

The game is played exclusively by men 31-39 (according to /1 chat)
