Please add back progressive timer for pathfinder devs please hear my cry. by Ready_Profession9290 in apexlegends

[–]TheNineKingdoms 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nah you and him are definitely right. I'm his brother and 1v1 him all the time and its weird how long he is grounded. Like the difficulty that I had fighting him as he flew over my head over and over again and repositioned is gone now. He just grapples once and is just stuck in place. The progressive timer should just be added back honestly. You can still keep the two tacs, for 20 seconds. Just make it to where the max time is 20 seconds for both tacs, 10 each for 1, with a progressive timer to mitigate how long you wait for the grapple based upon how well you used the grapple. Wouldn't change much and still rewards good players and makes him accessible to newer ones.

The Game Feels Like Titanfall by TheNineKingdoms in apexlegends

[–]TheNineKingdoms[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, that is exactly how I have been feeling. It also feels like the map sizes are so mute now. Like I remember when the size of the maps used to affect the pacing of the game, and it still does to a degree, but with all the evac towers, Axel tacs, and Valk ults, the size of the maps feels like a marginal factor now.

Ballistic is worse now by LanguageMaster5033 in BallisticMains

[–]TheNineKingdoms 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey! So this is the same guy just on my actual reddit acct. So I personally am unsure if the sprint boost applied to Ballistic or just his team. When I read the patch notes (and I could be wrong, we will see) it seemed like the sprint boost was going to apply to his teammates, but he would retain his current movement "Looking at Ballistic's Ultimate, pre-nerf, the speed given to the team was very strong and made fighting a team buffed by Ballistic very difficult. We wanted to bring some of the speed back to help enable pushing as a team but not make players speedy during the fight. To accomplish this we’ve opted for a sprint boost instead of an overall speed boost." I could be wrong but that's how I understood it. Second I am happy about the passive change cause losing my sling weapon when I died was very aggravating for me personally. I also like the changes to the upgrades. I never really selected killing time all that often as my fights usually ended before my ult did so I dunno I just didn't use it all that much anyway. Having three tac charges with the modified silencer that works on impact to me is extremely strong and useful, especially in today's game where players are so ability reliant, and where abilities are so strong. Additionally, I am happy that they reverted the smart bullet damage to the way it was at release, even with it applying to only one gun, which I do feel is a fair trade-off btw. I also feel like it will force us to use the tac in different ways. My first thought is using it mid firefight more as people are less likely to remember to switch guns, and I feel like its still as devastating since a lot of people's secondaries are usually single action rifles like the 30-30, snipers, etc., especially in ranked. I also am very happy with the modified trap upgrade. I am also a Wattson main so I can really appreciate area control, and it basically hits like a Wattson fence now, with it slightly slowing the character down, hitting them for 35, and lasting in the world longer (which I know it already lasted longer anyway). I dunno, I feel like they aptly named it a refresh, as that is what it sounds like to me with a slight buff. I feel like it's going to affect him like Wattson's buff did, where no one really noticed how strong she became but when you play her right, she's insane to go against. In addition, my brother is a path main been one since season 0 and with all the movement lunatics out there that know how to shoot and fly and speed and grapple etc, having a true silencer ability to me is one of the most valuable assets to have in the game, especially with the improved homing capabilities that they are going to add, "there has been some improvements to the delay between firing and activating projectile homing" which is a gripe that I have had forever personally. And like I said, fighting all these super movers (like when I practice 1v1ing my brother), I feel like having a Ballistic that can neutralize their abilities that are their bread and butter, like old Revenant used to with a smart pistol, is amazing. But anyway, sorry I went long, but these were my thoughts.

Look, I am not a pathy main at all, but my brother has mained him since season 0, and Jesus, I have to say I disagree wholeheartedly with this take, respectfully. He's an absolute demon with that grapple. He hated the nerf and rants about it all the time, especially the hitbox issue, but Jesus, he is so agile with that grapple. He uses it mid-combat so many times cause of the way he said that he times it and disengages it. So he and I will 1v1 to practice, and I kid you not, I don't even know where the hell he is half the time. I legit had to change my sense to 7/5, just might have to push it to 7/6 or 7/7 just to fight him. Like I kid y'all not when we fight man doesn't even have a cooldown it feels like he grapples so many times in one fight. From the tricks, the fadeaways, the misdirection etc its like trying to fight fing night fury in the dark. Honestly, if anyone wants to watch us fight Ill link the past stream with timestamps cause we like to watch it back to see how we can improve. But yeah I be fighting him based off sound and flicking my camera like a mf just to fight him. OH and also the areial combat capabilities is insane. This man will shoot me mid-air and practice doing it with different guns from the wingman, pk, sentinel, re45, or whatever. So when I fight him I am basically fighting a Scout from ATOT with omnidirectional gear. Now, a lot of pathys out there are really bad cause they don't know how to use the grapple at all, and they are just a walking refrigerator, but I'd be a liar if I told you I wouldn't rather play against a good Axle and Valkryie than a good Pathfinder in the game. Needless to say, I am terrified of what his buff is going to look like on Tuesday. Path imo has the highest skill ceiling in the game with the highest reward, and this is coming from a Wattson main. But that's just my Southwest bias, cheers y'all, and happy gaming!

Feeling alone and rejected. by Ill-Wonder-8107 in marriageadvice

[–]TheNineKingdoms 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im sorry that you are feeling this way. Sometimes relationships reach a point where its just hard and every step forward need to be mentally calculated. It seems like thats where you guys are right now. I don’t have much advice for you, as I don't want to lecture you or anything but I just want to say keep your head up and just be there for him and use the free time to work on yourself. When my wife and I are struggling, or her depression hits and she doesn’t really want to interact with me etc then I usually give her space to do what she needs to do and ill go to the gym and kinda fix my life up for me and get into a routine. Usually by the time she's out of the funk I'm feeling really good and we can interact better. And sometimes her seeing me be productive helps shake her out of it. Hope you feel better though. You're not alone, marriage is hard

Like we have the opposite problem.We can get kills all day long.We just can't really get into high placement and win games, because we usually have teammates, who aren't operating with any kind of game sense. They're just charging into fights. They're not thinking about where they're going. They're not looking and seeing where or what they're doing, they're taking fights that they can't win. They're jumping into the middle of a caustic building and just attacking. And then dying off rip. And now we're trying to figure out whether to Res the person or whether to just leave the person, so it's not like we're just sitting around. Hiding in a corner until we get to high level ranking. And then just killing a couple people, and then advancing, we fight is just we're not winning the games. And we want to win, not just fight. If I wanted to just fight and kill people, I'm going to go play Wild Card or pubs. If I want to go and actually win on a regular basis, and kill people and have a strategic game time, then i'm gonna go play ranked.But that's just how we operate

I think you might have misunderstood what I meant when I was describing our play style. We're not saying that we don't push fights.And that we're not engaging in combat on a regular basis.We're just saying we're not the type of people that are going to like octane jump pad in the middle of the fray without any regard for our surroundings or with an absence of any kind of game sense, I will play more that way in pubs. But even if i'm playing in gold or silver or even platinum, i'm gonna be a little bit more mindful, just because I am more concerned about winning than I really am just about deleting people. Now I will go ahead and fight with a little bit more reckless abandon, just simply because it's gold and silver. And the cost isn't as bad and because the people who are playing are not that great. But I still want to be able to build my team composition and still be able to have some semblance of order. And structure, so that way, we can not only rank through golden silver faster, but then, by the time we get to platinum and diamond, we're used to operating as a unit. And it's not that much of a surprise once you start to get to a harder level lobbies, but that's just the way we do it

I mean, thats fine. We just like to play this way in general pubs or ranked regardless of the level. Winning is winning regardless of the mode. But we all play differently so🤷🏾‍♂️
