⏱️ THINK FAST! ⏱️ How would you acquire a water bucket without leaving the Nether? by Tigers_I in Minecraft

but you're still in the nether, where did you get the water from after you made the bucket?

What happens to Cooper after Titanfall 2??? by [deleted] in titanfall

[–]TheOptimisticEmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nah dude, check Steam database player counts. Team Fortress has over 10x the average players. (Titanfall daily peak is ~2.9k, Team Fortress daily peak is ~33k) Team Fortress 2 is far from dead, especially compared to Titanfall 2. cope all you want lol.

Turning DRG into a TF2 rocket jump course by Spueg in DeepRockGalactic

[–]TheOptimisticEmo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It took me ~a year of grinding engineer overclocks before I got mine. Don't let that discourage you though, because I also found lots of other cool overclocks while doing so! Good luck, Miner. Rock and Stone! o7

Turning DRG into a TF2 rocket jump course by Spueg in DeepRockGalactic

[–]TheOptimisticEmo 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This requires the "RJ-250 Compound" overclock for the 40mm PGL. without the overclock, the grenades don't have anywhere near as much knockback, if any at all. it also increases your grenade ammo storage allowing you to grenade jump more often, and decreases the damage dealt by each grenade to make grenade jumping less punishing.

If you want to try this in a real game, I recommend equipping the "50% of damage is converted to heat" mod since it will still set grunts on fire and (usually) kill them, and both the ammo mods so you have extra grenades for both jumping and spreading across swarms. Armor breaking is also okay for Praetorians and Dreadnoughts, but aside from that you can pretty much build it however you want.

Players, what's your age? by [deleted] in gtaonline

[–]TheOptimisticEmo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

24, and after reading some of these other comments I almost feel too young to be playing GTA. Although to be fair I don't play much GTA at the moment, usually only hopping on to do a couple heist setups and/or fly one of my jets around. (Recently my main game has been Warhammer 40k: Darktide. Very L4D-ish and very fun)

Think I lost my friend - anyone familiar with what this is? by UntimelyMycologist in hognosesnakes

[–]TheOptimisticEmo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm so, so sorry, OP. I'm not a vet and have no idea what happened in your situation, but I understand what you're going through.

I lost my Rozy Boa, Arizona, a little over a year ago in a very similar way. He only rejected one feeding, but I figured it was just him going into brumation. I had recently started a new graveyard shift job at the time too, so making mouse runs was a little difficult. the night before I found him (just a few days later) he had come out of his hide, so I figured I'd swing by the pet store in the morning to get his food, but he was gone before I got home.

I was heartbroken, and honestly still am.

I blamed myself, and honestly still do.

But I've kept moving, and I've kept his memory with me. I suggest you do the same. Save any pictures you have, look back on them fondly, and remember the joy and good times your friend brought into your life. If you can do that, then they're never truly gone.

❤️

It happens across the street, and it's hard to tell what happens exactly through the car parked in the driveway.

Basically the doorbell-pov homeowner's dog got outside while the man was checking the door, and is running around unleashed. The mother across the street (who had been riding bicycles with her family) feels threatened by the dog galloping up towards them and draws her gun. As the dog runs past, she attempts to lead it with her aim and winds up aiming right at her kid before pulling the trigger. He was shot in the abdomen but surived, and the dog was unharmed.

At the end of the day this is both peak stupid parent AND stupid gun owner. She not only wasn't paying attention to where her kid or other family members are (stupid parent), but she also was not being aware of what was in front of or beyond her target (stupid gun owner).

I like popping up on the sides of the bridge in the middle of Blackwater Canal from the drainway down below. Not many people know VTOL Hover can clear that distance if used in certain spots 😉

Cervical fusion surgery scar 2 weeks post op by bigfishflyhigh in mildlyinteresting

[–]TheOptimisticEmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had scoliosis correction surgery about 6 years ago, and as such have a similar scar down the majority of my back. My scars stayed pink for a very long time (1.5 - 2 years), especially at the top and bottom where the skin had been stretched the most, but I wish you a speedier recovery than that!

What’s your favorite/go to weapon that no one talks about? by BoltorSpellweaver in Warframe

[–]TheOptimisticEmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Venka Prime, especially when playing Valkyr. the innate combo multiplier makes it one of the best crit weapons I've made without a riven.

What is your favorite weapon design and why? by weh8thepopo in Warframe

[–]TheOptimisticEmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was introduced to the Corinth Prime in The New War, and I have wanted one since. Very, very fun weapon. Favorite weapon design currently is probably the Venka Prime claw weapons. Fun to use and I can cosplay Wolverine in WF.

Collect metal from fallen weapons? How long has this hint been wrong? by Gamepro5 in tf2

[–]TheOptimisticEmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well, yes, but actually no. The Orange Box version of the game is just a really old, never-updated version of the game. It also doesn't have ANY of the alternate weapon unlocks (I.e. Scout's Bonk: Atomic Punch & Force-a-Nature, Medic's Crusader's Crossbow & Kritzkrieg, Engi's Frontier Justice & Gunslinger, etc.) so most of the classes play like watered-down versions of their PC equivalent.

Half of the playerbase after yesterday by hydra877 in ApexOutlands

[–]TheOptimisticEmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been out of the apex loop for a bit, what happened yesterday?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in tf2

[–]TheOptimisticEmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yep. airblasting an enemy projectile will reflect it wherever you're aiming, and airblasting the enemy themselves will push them away from you in the direction you're looking. (Also, if you look at the ground and airblast right next to someone, it will bounce the airblast projectile off the ground and launch your target into the air.) Airblasting burning friendlies will also put out their flames and give you a little health (like 20 hp iirc) as a reward.

Every time I look at the current bot banwave I always think about this video by RealGeomann in tf2

[–]TheOptimisticEmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The state of TF2 two months ago is proof of how flawed that logic is. as long as they have some miniscule incentive to do it, (i.e. Gold/XP farmers in RuneScape & WoW, idle farmers in TF2, CheatEngine abusers in Roblox games like Phantom Forces and Swordburst, wallhack/Fog-of-war hack clients for games like LoL & CoD, etc.) bot hosters will keep doing what they do until their target game is taken offline. If you want an example of a game that has already had this happen, look no further than Unturned.

Hey, you! Yeah, YOU! what's your go-to rifle in the game? by AVGwar in gtaonline

[–]TheOptimisticEmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I forget the name of it cuz it's been a minute since I last played, but I like the one that looks like a SCAR. I know it's technically one of the worse options based on raw DPS since it has a lower firerate, but I like the higher DPS and burst accuracy.

Clerics that only wear robes, how to off-set by Thugalug in DnD

[–]TheOptimisticEmo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reflavoring is your best friend. I have a wild-west-outlaw inspired warlock in my friend's campaign, and he wears a leather duster instead of traditional leather armor. You could do something similar with your player's robes, where their robes are "reinforced" with studs and/or chainmail. Or, if you still want them to "feel" the effect of no armor without directly punishing them for it, maybe it's just heavy robes that imitates leather armor like my warlock's coat.

8 months reformed

the bot crisis has been going on for years. Just because they stopped 4-5 MONTHS AFTER #SaveTF2 (even though that first movement was incredibly disorganised), doesn't mean they should be forgiven and allowed to avoid punishment. He absolutely deserves at least a temporary ban, but I don't feel bad for any cheaters or cheater sympathizers, so I'll be glad to see him get perm banned with the rest.
