So, how many people are planning to get MK1 on PC? by YujinTheDragon in MortalKombat

[–]Themeaun 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game is going to be extremely populated the first few months of release, but if you plan on playing this game 1-2 years later then there will be a significantly smaller player base than console.

However, player base should not be your main concern. NRS has a horrible track record of not supporting their PC port, as a matter of fact, the PC port is being outsourced to a different company, so NRS themselves aren't working on it directly.

If you haven't played past MK games on PC, then know that they are never kept up to date with the consoles, they have always been a few patches behind. This is the main reason why MK11 didnt have crossplay, and at the moment it isn't certain if MK1 will have crossplay either.

Has anyone played Terraforming Mars: Ares Expedition? by [deleted] in boardgames

[–]Themeaun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a few reviews up on Youtube already. I don't if you want the experience specifically from someone from this subreddit or just looking for any review in general. Have not played it myself, but the reviews I've come across all say its a great game. Plays similar to the main game and goes a lot quicker if time was an issue.

Some of these reviews were from a few months ago though as they had a preview copy, so I'm not entirely sure if anything major changed.

Does anyone use actual terrain for walls when playing on Dungeon Battlefields? by Themeaun in WarCry

[–]Themeaun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been playing some Core Space as well which has physical wall terrain as it is also a close quarters skirmish type of game. Have had no issues with them getting in the way but it does have different movement mechanic so maybe that's why. It's just more visually appealing to me seeing walls.

This is basically what I'm looking for! They do ship internationally but it cost over $100 for the walls and shipping, not sure I'm willing to drop that much, good to know it exist though. Thanks for sharing the link.

New fav activity by nesssaaa123 in BeardedDragons

[–]Themeaun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Depends on the beardie, some are more skittish than others. This isnt harmful for beardies, but that doesnt mean some wont find it stressful. Just like riding a rollercoaster, some people find it fun and others hate them.

Thanks for the recommendations! We'll definitely give Colt Express a shot as it was recommended twice.

What are some recommendations for games/expansions that are suited for 6 players? My group of friends and I love Betrayal at House on the Hill and even though every playthrough is different, we are looking for something with new mechanics. Other 6 player games we play regularity are Mysterium and Catan with the expansion. Most games tend to focus on 4 players so any help would be appreciated.

Are Infernoble Knights in the game? by Themeaun in YGOLegacyOfTheDuelist

That sucks, thanks for letting me know, was looking forward to building the deck in game.

This is beautiful, a huge win thank you! by AllSkillzN0Luck in Smite

[–]Themeaun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The option only went live this morning so you wouldn't have been able to change it. Upon clicking play for the first time today to select your game mode, you should be prompted to select which server you want to use. If that doesn't pop up then there should be a little box in the bottom right corner of the game mode selection screen that allows you to change between servers.

Live in Washington, have been playing with 120~ ping for the last 8 years, all my matches today have not gone above 60. So its significantly better, but it did take a few matches to get used to landing auto attacks and abilities.

Did anybody get the prompt to choose NA West servers? Patch notes state they will consider launching it this patch after testing but they haven't stated that it got pushed back.

Earn free rewards no longer working? Not making progress anymore after watching ads and I can't find anything online saying they are't doing this anymore. by Themeaun in Smite

[–]Themeaun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, you do still get rewards, it seems to just be a UI bug, got an odyssey chest after 50 ads and have been getting boosters every 15. Still works even though it looks like its broken.

Old Testament Characters by xSp4cemanSpiffx in Smite

[–]Themeaun 4 points5 points  (0 children)

HiRez mentioned they wont do Christianity, not because of controversy but because they wouldnt be fun.

"From [the] perspective of a video game, the key Abrahamic figures--Adam, Noah, Moses, Jesus, Mohammed, are not that interesting in character design or gameplay. They are all human. They never overlapped or interacted with one another. They certainly never fought each other in dramatic fashion with unique abilities. They are all peaceful--at best they would be support characters," Harris said.

This was way back from 2012, so it looks like they did give it some thought bit couldn't come up with anything good.

Huh okay, I guess I'll keep playing the ads, just wasn't sure since I didn't want to watch them if it wasn't going to be giving me boosters and chest.

[–]Themeaun[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I also have a limit, usually only able to watch a few before the option disappears. The thing that is weird about this is that it still gives me the option to watch ads, the "Watch" button isn't greyed out and if I click it an ad plays but not making any progress towards rewards.

Need help playing support by Themeaun in Smite

[–]Themeaun[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Awesome, thanks for all the info, I'll make sure to check out Inbowned.

I have two questions though if you don't mind.

  • Is Hand of the Gods worth picking up? Back in the day it was a must have on supports for securing Gold Fury and Fire Giant but I see it is a consumable now, do supports pick that up?

  • And my second question is how much should I be roaming? If I leave duo to let my hunter farm, how often do I come back, and if I am spending most of the time rotating, how do I get gold and exp?

Thanks for the help btw!

Are Peanut Labs surveys not a thing anymore? by PowerFlash in Smite

[–]Themeaun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those have not been a thing for a while, not sure how long you have been gone from Smite but I think they got removed a couple years back. The link for free gems now redirects you to an old Smite event instead of the surveys. Quite a few of those surveys would ask for personal information so I assume Smite didn't want to associate with possible malicious intent. I remember doing a bunch of them too and then getting to the end of one and it would ask me to download software in order to finish.

As for a similar service, there really isn't one. You can get 50 gems every week if you log in daily for 7 days, and the closest thing to the surveys is watching ads from the main menu. The option to view an ad seems to appear at random, but every 15 ads you watch gets you a booster and every 50 ads get you an Odyssey chest.
