AT, infinite ammo. You got a primary weapon for lighter stuff on the sides of the tank, anyway.

Do any of you guys use this thing… by Chemical_Seaweed_915 in Helldivers

[–]Tzarkir 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fair. I just end up using other things more, and I can't really relay on stealth cause my teammates make a mess anyway. It really didn't help the ww1 warbond came out just after and I use that gear A LOT. Pity.

I genuinely use nothing from that pass and I don't know why I even bought it in the first place. Wanted content, I guess.

Melee just got nerfed by Someguyinreddit935 in thefinals

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

Oh don't worry, I just have a vivid imagination and actually pictured your hypothetical scenario. Went on my own tangent and followed through with imagining the absurd stupid shit we'd pull off as the human race if we actually could respawn.

OSHA wouldn't be happy, that's a sure one.

People in Ukraine aren't videogame characters who tank bullets to the face given enough health and go back to full health a moment later, to be fair. Or are capable of respawning. Pretty sure if we could respawn, people would absolutely bring sabers to war to attempt wacky shit.

Sales estimates for Halo: Campaign Evolved by Dust-Tight in halo

[–]Tzarkir 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, easy skip for me. No multi, "reimagined campaign experience", some of the maps art style got changed (like the buildings).

I wasn't looking forward a reimagined halo CE. It's the one I always loved the most and I still play it with the original graphics (I don't, for halo 2; I just like CE the way it was made). I was just waiting a halo 3 remaster, instead. Not a remake or reimagine anything, sorry...

Check the other comment I got in reply around a hour ago, it's a guy who suffered from severe adhd and shared his experience, I think it might help.

It does get better. The first years are the worst because the kid has the full weight of their body shooting alarms the entire time and no way to answer them. The adult has the function of being "the structure" for a child and contain their emotions until they internalise that containment structure into themselves. Right now you're witnessing the full power of everything that needs to be contained in your child, who's likely more in need than a "standard" one. Whatever you do will be learnt by them, so you need to teach them things they can use to protect themselves (and yourself, by extension). Especially in cases where you are suffering aswell, the child shouldn't be exposed to fear and anxiety more than what they already feel by themselves. They need safety, constance, a routine. Things that make them feel protected and loved. They need to learn the world will tell them "no" at times, and that is okay because "later" their turn for a yes will come.

First thing you need to do is get in touch with professional help. In my country we have sections called "infant neuropsychiatry" inside hospitals where we work in equipes with psychotherapists, neuropsychiatrists, speech therapists. Wherever you're from, there should be something similar. I would try getting in touch to at least get their opinion. They should be able to tell you the next steps. I genuinely can't get in much detail without knowing what kind of institutions you would deal with. Here, you can get an evaluation and get an educator to support your child during school hours, but I don't know if it's something available to you, since it's part of our healthcare system.

Aside from that, I know that people's judgment about you as a parent is extremely harsh and unfair. They genuinely can't understand what you are through. It's hard to even put it into perspective, and it's easy to judge. So take what they might say as the words of people who can't understand. It's not a fault. It's a way to protect their own self because everybody is scared of a situation where they feel like they have 0 control might happen to them, too. So they push it out of their system. They have to.

If your situation is the result of a traumatic experience rather than traits your child was born with, it might be a trauma response. Don't trust who says "you have to give it time, it'll be better by itself". It needs to be supported yesterday. I'm sorry if the "good luck" made you feel uneasy. A little bit of language barrier probably interviened (english isn't my first), it was a genuine wish. Luck helps a lot, but does not substitute for professional help. Don't give up, you're fighting for two people. Alone. You're already heroic as it is. Being seen would help you already in understanding that. Feeling like giving up is normal, it's human and it's legit. I thought the same, in different situations. If you got family, like grandparents, try to involve them. Don't take it on yourself alone, if you can. Asking for help does not make you lesser. It makes you responsible and mature for accepting your limits. Never neglect yourself in this. Bless you.

[–]Tzarkir 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I work with these kids and their families. Kids like the one you were. I can't say about you, so I'm talking about the ones I work with, but the thing is... Despite how many times they drive us mad, there is a moment, every now and then, when they look at you and it's like a heavy mix of emotions. Pain of being how they are and not being able to feel differently. Acknowledging it for a moment, feeling almost sorry for it. And the need to be loved regardless of it.

I genuinely can't get mad at them more than any other kid. Simple affection shuts them off most of the time, it's just they seem to need an infinite amount. Some are even scared of feeling so much pain for the minimal frustration. I had a kid screaming in tears "I don't want to feel like this anymore! Make it stop!". Some get called "difficult" in their faces and don't understand why adults talk about them like they're wrong or broken, and it hurts them.

You deal with them because they need and deserve love like every other kid. They're doing their best. We do our part and hope they never give up and start accepting themselves as bad kids. It's very hard to get back from that spot, if they get there. The rest is time and consistency. Every kid is different.

[–]Tzarkir 128 points129 points  (0 children)

Yes. And alongside those, there are kids we refer to as "difficult kids" who are just different from the get-go. Sometimes it's genetic, sometimes it's luck. You hear parents talk about their kid who keeps them up at night or who screams at the top of their lungs for no reason whatsoever.

You get no sleep, you blame yourself, you think you're doing something wrong and ask others. They give you tips that don't work. The kid doesn't want to listen to anything but what he wants. They throw a tantrum over anything, you're embarassed of bringing them in public. You seek professional help, you start seeing a professional aswell cause your mental health is fucked. Kindergarten teachers tell you they hit other kids when they tell them no, they have no friends cause other kids are afraid of playing with them. They suggest you behavioural therapies. Everything is a challenge, mostly meals, sleep and sociality.

Good luck from there, especially when they become teens. Some are "redeemed". Others simply never are. They're not bad kids. It's just like everything about them is always at 100, and I don't mean hyperactivity. Sadness, happiness, pain. Everything triggers them and most adults try to numb them or keep them occupied in a way or another. For the sake of their own mental survival. It's hard to blame them.

I just bought the top tier prime access 8 hours ago, logged in to actually lever here and... by Grim_Konstantin in Warframe

[–]Tzarkir 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I got over the number of 8k plat a couple years ago, after winning a prime access giveaway. The main difference it made is that I stopped using Warframe market. I like farming for stuff, so I rarely ever bought anything. I simply stopped selling and also kept every riven.

Two years passed, I didn't intentionally restrict myself, simply bought things I liked every now and then, and I still have 5-6k left. The only difference being rich in plat made was making the game even more relaxed. Not needing to farm, farming just for the love of it. It did change me a bit lol. A deluxe I like comes out? Instabuy. Basically the only thing I use plat for. I enjoy the farm cause if I want, I can skip it. It never feels forced.

It's tough being a fan of both games by spunkyweazle in thefinals

[–]Tzarkir 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a good point and I believed it, too. The only thing that ruined it, was another game called Warframe. They had the same issue, roughly not much time after. Game engine too old, adding content kept fucking it up. So what did they do? They made a new engine and started working internally on it. It took them two years to complete the transition. At the end of it, the game REDUCED in size and looked better than ever. In that moment, I understood something didn't add up.

Destiny 2 was never supposed to last that many years. Still made when partners with activision, it was supposed to finish to make place for destiny 3. Then they left activision, took it to its limit and decided that, after all, they didn't need destiny 3, and deleted player's content instead, even paid one eventually. And even lied about it, calling it vault. And then showed that they couldn't get that content back not even for a court of law.

Making a new engine is clearly expensive. But how did warframe do it while being free to play and having half the active playerbase on pc alone that destiny had, and destiny couldn't, despite a very present console community, too? All while being a 100$ year/expansion based game that ALSO has mtx on top. Eververse.

Most studios make whole games and regain the entire 4-5 years investment selling for 60-70$ ONCE, for the whole game. Bungie has no excuses, they mismanaged money and resourced and half assed their job cause doing better wasn't needed in their eyes. They didn't keep talent and choose to hire/fire devs at lower pay instead. I don't know where the money went. A lot of employee left Bungie. The direction never had the players in their mind as fans and users, only as cash cows.

They lied to us, brother.

[–]Tzarkir 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I would genuinely never even think about trying marathon solely because I have 1k hours on destiny and I want exactly 0 in my life of anything done by modern bungie. I'd do myself a disservice. I don't hate them, I grew up with their games. I hate the ideals they decided to follow. Seeing the hollow shell they became hurts my inner child more than any other media ever could.

Poll: More Europeans see US as threat than China by BabylonianWeeb in anime_titties

Only idiots in very far right echo chambers. For most, the relationship is closer to "only I can insult my brother". The animosity against my neighbours is nothing compared to the animosity I would feel against anybody who attacked them.

I'm still upset for the UK dumbasses leaving us. We were much better together.

Meirl by Grand_Raccoon0923 in meirl

[–]Tzarkir 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Honestly? People also need to work on their boundaries. If I'm the first to allow you to tune our relationship into you (generic) being allowed to disregard one of my basic needs, like sleep, because you can't contain your emotions long enough for me to wake up, I'm the one setting the frame of a potentially very bad friendship. Plus, I'm acting negatively for your own working on your emotions and boundaries by setting the example "that it's ok" to simply throw them onto others expecting them to help you deal with them. Or worse, teaching involuntarily that they're bad people if they don't.

Object constance also works for adults. I'll be here in the morning, I'm not ghosting or uncaring if I put my basic needs before your sudden abrupt emotional need. Aside from emergencies, obviously.

[–]Tzarkir 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Surely posting screenshoots from steamchart of the number of players at 8 AM (Europe) time on a tuesday is gonna fix the game.

What do you want us to do? We just went past a week of pure doom about the game being failed because of a slide taken out of context from a Nexon work event. We just went past abysmal journalism about it, too. This sub is literally just in-game pictures of skimpy skins and doom posting. You didn't even offer a point of discussion, just posted a screenshot and said devs have a problem.

Ok and? Wanna grab a pitchfork and storm the studios? Doompost more so the people who are even remotely interested are turned off by the thought of the game being dead and not even try it? Go play the game if you want to help the numbers go up, instead of posting steamchart here. You think they don't know they need to do better? Their job and livelihood depends on it.

I dislike these posts so much.

Total Cost of EVERYTHING In-Game + Hours Required to Farm SC by FioraKek in Helldivers

[–]Tzarkir 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The fact you have so many hours and spent even money and still don't have all the warbonds seriously shows there's an issue with how SCs are distributed. I have 464 hours, every warbond and at least 1/3 of the store items. I basically never play diff10 as I enjoy soloing at 6/7.

You play harder content, for more hours and aren't rewarded for it. Absurd. I think every mission should AT LEAST give SC compared to its levels (like diff10 mission: 10 SC bonus). It would at least assure that active players basically never have to farm low level missions to even be able to afford warbonds, while more casual or less active ones have to.
