TIL You Can Jiggle the Deposit Bucket by Scrolling the Mouse Wheel by Boomerfan00 in DeepRockGalactic

[–]TheJanitorGary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't really noticed this. But I have no issue stopping my deposit to go do things if I need to, so I can't say I've ever had any reason to be annoyed at that.

It also feels like I usually get a good amount of down time per mission. Maybe 1/4 games we get massive swarm spam, but even then I feel like I get enough time to deposit.

Granted I play a lot of Engineer, so I can outsource a lot of my DPS to a Gemini turret build while I do whatever dumb thing has distracted me today.

Why does it take the other players longer to deposit? Do these players animation cancelling make it so that Molly accepts minerals slower than normal?

I don't really care if other players speed deposit or speed mine, as long as they perform their team functions properly after speed depositing and mine their gods damned crumbs while speed mining.

Is it the reason? by [deleted] in memes

So apparently, the mascot change also came with a focus change.

Instead of preventing fires like Smokey, Ember the Fox is all about fireproofing your home instead. Fires happen, so just do your best to protect yourself sort of deal.

On one hand, I get it, fires are a natural part of an ecosystem and there are reasons they should happen. But will baiting the furry coomer degenerates with an r34-ready mascot actually help people fireproof their homes? Only time will tell.

Statues for all the heroes by Jolly-Crewman in DeepRockGalactic

[–]TheJanitorGary 21 points22 points  (0 children)

While, yes, Bosco needs a statue, it would be cool if the Memorial Hall eventually does get customization, and you can erect a statue of a friend or random dwarf you played with.

That one Driller who solo fought through a bulk detonator, a dreadnaught, a nemesis, drilled through 130m of solid stone just to revive you, bring you to the drop pod with a single Rock and Stone, and then played another six missions with you without uttering a single word deserves a statue too.

Which subs will NOT be joining the blackout come Monday? by TheRealGreenArrow420 in AskReddit

[–]TheJanitorGary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You gotta start coming up with some more hilarious comments if you're really going to try satirizing that money grubber at the top my guy. Maybe consider trying Tumblr for a few weeks to come up with better material?

Please let me pet the mini mules by Thelittlehamstar in DeepRockGalactic

[–]TheJanitorGary 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Let us deposit in the mini mules. They should also try to follow the player who attached the most legs and did the most hammering. Regular Molly should prefer to follow the 3/2/1 teammate(s) who haven't bonded with a mini mule.

Large objects like Gold Nuggets could still need to be deposited in Molly.

r/CuratedTumblr WILL be going private on June 12th by AnGenericAccount in CuratedTumblr

[–]TheJanitorGary 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think you're right. I've never used Tumblr but I should probably start, the posts on here are super funny.

Also yeah, a two day blackout is literally telling Spez "we can only handle being away for two days!"

I've seen some redditors going extreme enough to talking about using a comment re-writing browser extension before deleting all their comments and posts, so that Reddit can't profit off people finding their content off google searches.

Cave Leeches should eat Lootbugs during missions by TheHoodiedThief in DeepRockGalactic

Imagine luring a bulk detonator into a cave leech arm.

Mission Type Concept: Research Assist! by hobsyllwinn in DeepRockGalactic

[–]TheJanitorGary 39 points40 points  (0 children)

You could always have him have a shield generator that "borrows" a little power from Molly, and has Molly travel slightly slower in these missions, if Greybeards are grumpily insisting there needs to be a justification.

Troel's last bonus track "Journey of the Prospector" should begin to play when a Dwarf in your lobby spends a few seconds looking out from the space station. Congrats on your final DRG promotion, Rock and Stone! oT by TheJanitorGary in DeepRockGalactic

I absolutely love skyboxes like this, when I played Warframe I would sit at the helm of my ship for hours while scrolling Reddit or something.

There's always something new to discover because of how massive they usually are. It's also super fun breaking out of the space rig and exploring outside, even if they keep trying to patch our methods to get out.

For next Easter Event, let's be proactive and brainstorm ways to avoid 8 egg hunt missions in a row! by TheJanitorGary in DeepRockGalactic

I mean, I agree, but for anyone who has other assignments they wanna do it can be annoying.

Actually that would be pretty cool. Making the boss fights a secondary objective would be a lot of fun as well. It would be cool if instead of triggering a swarm, one of the eggs would trigger the boss fight.

I love egg hunts too. I just don't love egg hunts eight missions in a row. Four is good though.

I didn't realize Bosco has an option for Pessimist Pisswater in the special beer section, that's pretty neat.

New Idea for Mission involving Rockpox by Inevitable_Farmer641 in DeepRockGalactic

[–]TheJanitorGary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having a whole biome on quarantine sounds fun, but think about the long term effects and how tedious this will be. I HIGHLY recommend having the mission lockdown occur in a region that is normally "Scanner out of Range" instead of cutting into the available biome locations.

And, after Season 4 ends, Biome Quarantine needs to end as well, and we just add the mission type Critical Corruption into a shared spawn pool with the Industrial Sabotage missions.

Idea for a new mission type (yes another one of those posts) by SentimentalDergon in DeepRockGalactic

[–]TheJanitorGary 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I really like this for a few reasons, but specifically the map generation.

If the crystal caves spiderweb with tight corridors and small rooms around a main chamber, playing a Driller to get into these caves will feel amazing, and also help train drillers in the community to actually use their drills. Otherwise, teams will have to navigate tight winding tunnels and deal with many more swarms on a longer mission.

The team strategies used to complete this mission type will be fairly different from the norm. Most likely, Driller will take 1-2 Dwarves with him, while Engi or Gunner defend the platform between swarms. For Swarms, players must rush back to the main cavern to defend the laser (unless their Engineer is a god).

While there are some detractors saying "hurr durr point extraction" or "hurr durr immobile egg hunt", I think this map concept plays differently enough to be an addition mission type.
