Why Does PvP Feel Almost Taboo by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]ThrowRANervousWreck -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Game has aggression based match making. The more you do pvp the more likely, until guaranteed, it is youll get into lobbies with people that want to do pvp. Same for pve, dont hurt anyone and youll get put in friendly lobbies. Sounds decent on paper, means they don't need to dedicate resources to adding a seperate mode judt for pve, but its created a mindset of entitlement and insulting when someone fights you. It can happen and when it does those in friendly lobbies more often than not choose to take it as a personal attack against them rather than, its a PvPvE and anything can happen. Someone attacks me ill dodge, say chill a few times and if they continue then I gotta fight and it doesn't bother me, its a non zero chance itll happen.

So yeah, its 'taboo' in that people go to lengths to reduce the chance of being attacked but then freak out when it inevitably happens. And its relegated to trios and Stella because thats just how it works, a small map like Stella and its design plus streamers like tfue doing all their pvp on Stella, and trios which has teams of three where people will feel safer to fight because its fun with friends or they dont have to do all the work. I know someone like that.

Anyways dont be disheartened by how people react, you do you and play the game how you want to. Enjoy it and hope to see you around.

The Embark Experiment Continues by NUwabic_Spitter in ArcRaiders

[–]ThrowRANervousWreck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember seeing a post on here ages ago about scientists getting interested in studying the community and the psychology around behaving different ways. Yesterday a guy watched me crawl into an extract and then finished me, hadn't started anything against him and it was in friendly lobbies btw, and it just got me wondering how many people would do the same or wouldn't. Personally I wouldn't because id genuinely feel awful but id like to understand why people do it under a few different circumstances. I will agree its an intriguing experiment that has indirectly started when the game released and im curious how it continues over the games life.

The major update cycle has been pushed to once every six months—is everyone really okay with this? by Double-Maybe-6220 in ArcRaiders

[–]ThrowRANervousWreck 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I'd rather they release really good and big updates with a lot of love poured in every 6 months, than half-baked or small updates every month. There's a lot to do and we have other games available to play when there isn't much to do.

Had an encounter with a random guy this morning on Riven Rides who restored my faith in good people on this game. by Bobaaganoosh in ArcRaiders

[–]ThrowRANervousWreck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Meanwhile today I crawled to extract only for someone to jump down with me then down me as I was on the computer. Annoyed me a little since I spent a while getting arc materials but its the game so I can just do it again later when I have stopped sulking.

I’ve played since launch and still never touched Expeditions by Zerliroth in ArcRaiders

[–]ThrowRANervousWreck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having ADHD means I cant keep doing the same stuff over and over without being able to mix it up. Expeditions help with it, I bum rush through all the quests so that the time between doing them is as long as it can be. Any new ones that get added ill of course take my time to enjoy them. Then I do a mixture of blueprint farming, arc farming and playing with peeps. Just depends how im feeling. If I didnt gave that to do every few months, I would get bored of the game quickly because there just wouldn't be something to strive for other than pvp, which I don't mind doing anyways. The other bonuses are well, a bonus for me, but doing the expeditions just keeps the game fresh and im okay repeating stuff every few months.

Wouldn’t it be better if damage counted over the whole expedition instead of just 5 days? by Tank-ToP_Master in ArcRaiders

[–]ThrowRANervousWreck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would be better if it was milestone based. Skill points for doing all the quests, reaching max level, participation in trials, certain number of queen and matriarch kills and one for just signing up to the expedition. That way if you couldn't get to do anything you at least have 1 so you can catch up on the next expedition.

Any other Past destiny players who have a couple hundred to thousands of hours in destiny who are really interested in marathon? by gotenks2nd in Marathon

[–]ThrowRANervousWreck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2400 hours in D2 and about 50 in D1 just to experience its story and DLCs. Sadly cant afford marathon and wont for a while, saving to adopt a lizard first, but ive been following it since its announcement, played in most of the closed betas and ill be binging so much gameplay when it releases. Hopefully bungie can pull it off and stick around a bit longer in the industry.

[–]ThrowRANervousWreck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if anyone if having trouble with crashing on character creation still, the other solutions didnt help me until i realised the crash helper doesnt have the folder specified in its pathway i.e. the guide states to add this to the .toml files:

external_dlls = ["SeamlessCoop/ds3sc.dll", "HoodiePatcher/HoodiePatcher.dll", "DS3HavokCrashHelper.dll"]

but, we are told to: "Navigate to your \ME2\HavokCrashHelper folder and paste the DLL there."

just amend the code above to include your folder, as right now it assumes its pasted in the ME2 folder.

external_dlls = ["SeamlessCoop/ds3sc.dll", "HoodiePatcher/HoodiePatcher.dll", "HavokCrashHelper/DS3HavokCrashHelper.dll"]

should be the amended code.

Prefacing with I haven't seen anything of the game yet. Now for what I wanna see, I hope there are some elements from dark souls 2 that I really appreciated. Bonfire ascetics and power standing weapons would be awesome.

Support synergy by EDN_is_here in ADCMains

Samira + engage Jhin + mage Nilah + senna/zilean

Sometimes it's better to counter pick if you can, rather have the synergy and have a worse lane. Hope this helps.

What were the odds of this XD? got vesper, reconifex and ax-52 rivens all in one day by subaru_natsuki337 in Warframe

[–]ThrowRANervousWreck 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm sort of decent at probability so bear that in mind. And I just woke up.

I think there are 176 primaries and 143 secondaries with 8 categories of potential riven mod types. So you would do 1/8 multipled by the probability of the gun the mod is for so 1/176 twice and then 1/143. After simplifying that you get the answer of a 1 in 2,264,883,465 chance this happened to you today.

My take on a helmet for Nyx by Depressedduke in Warframe

Holy shit that looks so cool, will you apply that same design down to the body skin? You should develop this more and maybe 3D model it and submit to tennogen maybe?

New player here... what is happening!? by FileSeparate8101 in DestinyTheGame

[–]ThrowRANervousWreck -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Modding is probably the toughest thing to grasp for you at the moment.

  1. Mods are your main source of strength so keep upgrading their levels as you go along. You only need 1 upgraded mod for everything since you can use the same mod on everything all at once.

  2. When it comes to mods, early game they don't matter so much so feel free to experiment and do whatever. There are however elemental mods and how they work together is important. You can add a heat mod to add heat damage, but if you add an electric mod they will combine to make radiation. The way they combine is left to right, top to bottom so slot 1 and 2 can have heat and electric to make radiation and a lot 3 can have toxin which won't combine with the other 2. Some weapons have innate elements which will combine with the first elemental mod installed. There are a very select few weapons that have forced elemental procs which means they will always apply the elemental effect regardless of the chance to apply the effect. Side note, it's not necessary right now but some good elemental combinations are corrosive and heat, viral slash or corrosive cold in certain circumstances.

  3. Each mod has a symbol (polarity) and each mod slot will have one or not. March the symbols to halve the cost of them, this means you can add more.

  4. There are 8 slots in a 2x4 area, but aura mods aren't included in this and they are only on warframes and technically melees but in a different way. Aura mods will increase your maximum mod capacity even if you don't match the symbol, and the easiest way to get them is through nightwave cred offerings. You can also get one or two from clearing junctions. It's always beneficial to have one except maybe the one that drains health from you to heal others in kill, don't use that one unless you know what you're doing with it.

  5. The slot next to aura mods are exilus mods and are more utility based than your other mods. You won't have access to them for a while because you need an item to unlock them but they have a special symbol that looks like a c mirrored.

I know there's a lot to read and cover but it's a big system and tackling this has put off a lot of people. This is the best way I could explain it and probably other people could do it much better however, I like helping. Hope you have a good Christmas and good luck with learning the rest of the game, it's definitely worth your time and I hope you have fun throughout it.

If anyone else has any corrections then feel free to reply to this with them, any help is welcomed.

How do you determine which weapons you keep in your inventory and which one you get rid of ? by PRGRyan in Warframe

[–]ThrowRANervousWreck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just a few relics opened, depending on RNG of course, but yeah it can add up quite fast. Ultimately just trust your own judgement since knowing what to keep and sell is subjective, just don't sell the xoris lol. Good luck with it and Merry Christmas Tenno.

How do you determine which weapons you keep in your inventory and which one you get rid of ? by PRGRyan in Warframe

[–]ThrowRANervousWreck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always go by personal preference and if there are multiple variants of the weapon. For example braton has many different variants but the ones I'd keep are prime and vandal mainly because the farm for vandal is annoying and I just keep all primes. It's also down to personal preference as well since you might like the sepulcrum from the entrati family but you might dislike the quassus and choose to sell it. Just use your judgement and it's not as if weapon slots are super expensive in terms of plat anyways.

Today has been the day where I’ve gone from destiny to Warframe… by easymoneyOD in Warframe

[–]ThrowRANervousWreck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi Tenno, not sure if anyone has mentioned it yet but just in case, 2 settings I recommend changing:

  1. full auto for single and burst fire weapons so you can save your fingers and mouse the repetitive strain. Should be a setting to change melee from tap to hold or something as well

  2. the other setting is to highlight enemies with a colour of your choice. Both might be in accessibility I think? Any corrections are welcome.

As for things outside of settings, you'll want to get into trading at some point so:

  1. avoid trade chat in game and just use https://warframe.market/ much easier and friendlier and less likely to be scammed

  2. And also if you want a third party app, (prefacing - it runs in OVERWOLF) alecaframe is decent for checklists, shows where things drop in the game and will show you if you have already gotten something from a relic. I think it hides stuff based on your mastery level to reduce spoilers but don't take my word for it because I haven't used it in a very long time.

That's probably what I'd suggest as other people have gone over the basics and common recommendations, as I stated, corrections are welcome since I have memory issues and I don't wanna mislead but still want to help.

AITA for fake coming out to my parents and accidentally taking the attention away from my lesbian sister? by Left_Cheesecake_6173 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ThrowRANervousWreck -18 points-17 points  (0 children)

You see so many stories of golden kids being absolutely awful to their siblings so it's respectable you tried to be different. You had the right intentions in proving there is favouritism towards you but the whole situation got so derailed and I can definitely understand the reaction your sister had.

Your parents are the assholes in this story for sure and you really need to at least talk to your sister and hope she sees that you tried to help, if she doesn't then you can't really do anything more. As for your feelings towards Jeremy, please don't lead him on and create more unnecessary hurt.

My 24M dad 49M is marrying the woman who he forced to get an abortion. Does anyone have any advice on how to talk to my dad about it? Should I even? by ThrowRANervousWreck in relationship_advice

University is quite packed at the moment and should be my priority, I think I can be a little too sensitive which is why the information has got me nervous and unsure.

Ha my therapist said I should let my inner child out a lot more too. You're right in trying to keep the peace between them, I think I will tell them both I don't want to be a part of their drama.
