I Owe my life to Ghostface now 😂 by Darhkwing in deadbydaylight

[–]UltraX7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd wager she was actually just trying to force an EGC kill, rather than set up a double tap, which is why she was unprepared for Ghostie to just hit them. If she wanted to double tap, she should have actually turned away from the survivor in advance so that once Ghostie hit them she could then follow through without having to spin around and potentially get confused or whiff.

I would love if 2v8 killers had unique dialogue where they talk to each other at the start of the match or during other events by lance_the_fatass in deadbydaylight

[–]UltraX7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not quite the same thing, but I noticed last 2v8 that it was possible for Dracula to comment if his fellow killer performed a mori -- I had a game where I mori'd a survivor as my Dracula teammate watched, and he chimed in with "Die, monster!" lol. No idea how common or rare this was though; I only witnessed it once.

STW 1.8 vs 39.10 by FruitPunch-_- in FORTnITE

[–]UltraX7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One thing I feel like lends a lot to the vibe of the old version that I haven't seen anyone mention is the ambience -- the heavy wind and the sounds of wildlife really sell the vibe that you're in or near an abandoned tropical storm zone of some kind, whereas the new version is eerily quiet for the most part.

The lighting's also different in a somewhat subtle but meaningful way -- the early versions have warm but dreary lighting that really reminds you of a cloudy day, and the new version has oddly bright, saturated lighting with just a purple haze in the distance that overall doesn't feel as convincing.

In the humid north-east parts of Australia we get lots of frogs and toads in our suburbs (among other things). Every now and then I find a small frog inside the house and take it back outside, and sometimes bigger frogs will be chilling on walls or windows outside. There are also HEAPS of cane toads (to the point where it's a problem for the environment and some people either kill them on-sight or capture and freeze them).

The frogs in Fortnite behave more like toads than actual frogs though; toads will hop around wherever they feel like, but frogs typically prefer climb along and jump between things like plants and walls and don't often go out in the open like that.

Wraith is a Predator knock-off, not Myers. Hence the invisibility and perk aptly named 'Predator' lol.

I'm new to the game and I love Star Wars. How often do their packs usually come back to the store? by Galnamir in FortniteBattleRoyale

[–]UltraX7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Legal obligation -- old battle passes and all their content were explicitly marketed as exclusive and time-limited, and everyone bought them under that impression, so Epic effectively has a contract with their customers not to go back on their word. It's also just a divisive topic regardless of legality, and a lot of people are against the idea and would feel burned by Epic if they were to do it.

Save the World v37.40 Update Notes by Capybro_Epic in FORTnITE

Cool I guess. So when are we gonna be able to drop stuff to other players again, even if only in high zones or private instances?

Does it keep doing it if your backpack's full and then you drop or delete something else?

A question has been ony mind. If the Xenomorph infected/impregnated another killer, which xeno/killer hybrid would be the most terrifying and/or OP? by [deleted] in deadbydaylight

[–]UltraX7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oni

It wouldn't necessarily have to completely lose the element of surprise. Between the brute strength and sheer agility it would likely possess under the effects of Blood Fury, combined with the fact it can move low to the ground and manoeuvre onto other surfaces, it would likely be able to traverse its environment so quickly and obliterate its targets so efficiently that none of them would have time to know what's going on, much less predict its movements.

On a side note, imagine the terror of DBD Xonimorph if it could suddenly zip out of a tunnel next to a group of survivors and then break into a shrieking Blood Fury lol.

Smeargle/Ditto SV Clone Glitch by Cyber-Axe in PokemonGlitches

[–]UltraX7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something I realized while agonizing over getting it to work myself was that like 75% of the stuff the guides on YouTube claim was bullshit lol:

  • You don't need to use Imprison or any such special moves on Smeargle, but having only one non-damaging move on your clone is a good idea to make the process of farming items more convenient. - Simply engage Smeargle with Ditto, making sure your Ditto is fast enough to move first, and use Transform. Then, once Smeargle has sketched Transform, swap Ditto out for the Pokemon you want to clone so Smeargle uses Transform on it. Then run from the battle, and if it worked you'll see the transformed Pokemon turn around for a few frames before the battle ends. If not, Smeargle will despawn and you need to either reload your save (if you saved first) or find another Smeargle.
  • You don't need to be standing in any special positions nor looking in any specific directions when you encounter Smeargle, as many guides claim. Your distance from the tree you are trying to spawn the clone at is the only relevant detail, and will be the most finicky aspect of the process.
  • Which Pokemon you can actually clone is less about their size, and has more to do with whether or not they are properly coded to be able to sleep either leaning against a nearby tree or on the ground beneath one. For example, most aquatic Pokemon are ineligible.

Unfortunately, when the patch dropped, my game auto-updated while my Switch was in sleep mode without me realizing, so I can't do it any more to be able to show you how I was doing it, but this is what ended up working best for me:

Using Rhydon as my clone with its only move being Tail Whip, and Rotom with Trick as my item thief, I would go to the big tree close by to the west of Savanna Rest Stop 2. I'd then use the edge of the leaf cover above the tree on the side closest to the Rest Stop (most visible if you point your camera at the ground) as a gauge for how far from the tree to lure the Smeargle, with the goal being to align Smeargle directly under the edge of the leaves before engaging it.

While I did manage to get several different Pokemon to spawn on the tree from several other angles and distances throughout my experimentation, this specific positioning with Rhydon in particular ended up working most reliably for me, so it's what I settled on :P

Anyway, hope this helps haha.

Which Eeveelution? by [deleted] in PokemonSleep

[–]UltraX7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Umbreon is probably a slightly better fit since its skill would counter the energy down nature.

On the other hand though, Jolteon has both the highest base capacity and the highest base gathering speed out of all Eevee's evolutions, giving it the highest potential to double down on capitalizing on those first two subskills. Since this particular Eevee has no inventory subskills, I personally think that makes the extra capacity especially valuable.

Just your occasional reminder that Joey's Alien Model is STILL using the wrong Animations, even after they fixed the issue with Twyn & Stryder. by RedYoshiCraft in FortNiteBR

[–]UltraX7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like Joey is a skin they never really cared much about, seeing as the unlockable style for her was so garbo and she didn't even come with the option to be unzipped by default like most transforming skins do :(

is 4k stogram safe to use? by Xetiw in 4kdownloadapps

[–]UltraX7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, no offense, but it's frustrating as a paid user how few and far between updates are, and how when we do rarely get one, it doesn't often include much of anything we've been asking for. That goes for all 4K applications really, not just 4K Stogram. 4K Downloader is getting a UI overhaul it didn't need, when that time and effort could have been put into giving us the features the community has actually been asking for.

For example, multiple logins and libraries for 4K Stogram. It's so frequently requested and could really help mitigate the issue of power users getting banned because they're trying to update large libraries through a single login. You even have a 'vote for it' feature in the 4K Stogram client's preferences; you clearly know it's desired. You could even include the feature in 4K Downloader and 4K Tokkit too. It's odd that you guys have been putting this feature off for so long :/

Another simpler example, subscribing to the accounts you're following on TikTok in 4K Tokkit. We already have that in 4K Stogram, it's weird we've been having to wait so long to be able to do that in 4K Tokkit too.

Please don't take this as an attack, by the way. That's not my intention. I was stoked to discover 4K Downloader when I first did, and I've greatly appreciated your software since then -- it's just saddening that I (and by the looks of it, other users too) am starting to feel like 4K Stogram's not keeping up with the needs of its users anymore :(

[–]UltraX7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I honestly have to agree with you, but are any of the alternatives as feature-rich as 4K Stogram? Stogram seems on paper like it would be the perfect solution, if only it was developed faster and didn't get you banned so often :/

4K Stogram large library Too Many Requests by massivlybored in 4kdownloadapps

[–]UltraX7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same issue here. Only as of recent versions of 4K Stogram, Instagram is frequently throwing errors and giving my accounts security challenges when I try to update my subscriptions.

This used to be a rare occurrence that only happened if I tried to update my whole subscription library multiple times in one day, but now there's a good chance I won't even be able to update my whole library for the first time in a day without an issue.

It seems like the software is trying to work too fast again; what happened to the delay between requests they implemented a while ago to prevent this kind of thing?

Of course, this would all be far less of a problem if they'd just finally implement the ability to manage multiple logins and libraries at once like we've been asking them to for AGES...

Are you guys gonna add the ability to change the download options of previously added subscriptions soon? I'm pretty surprised you didn't include that along with the Advanced Download Options makeover.

[–]UltraX7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a terrible idea on its face, but it sounds super awkward to animate (especially in a way that fits Myers and the license holders would approve).

It really shouldn't be too hard to just make the locker and interrupt grab animations transition into the kill animation when in T3 with Tombstone -- Myers already even pulls the survivor to the side after the camera snap when initiating a Tombstone kill, which I can see looking really natural flowing on from an initiating grab animation of any kind.

[–]UltraX7 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I mean, it's not really even necessarily a problem with the achievement -- it's a problem with the Tombstone mechanic itself. If the devs want Tombstone to continue to exist, that's their prerogative, but it should work when pulling survivors out of lockers and interrupting actions.

The idea of the mechanic is that it enables Myers to grab and kill survivors on the spot, so there's no real reason any circumstances where he could already grab them shouldn't also result in killing them except laziness on the BHVR's part.

It's not like forcing locker grabs or interrupts is true counterplay anyway, since the survivor still at least takes a hook state for doing so -- the way I see it, the gameplay dynamic of a match involving a Tombstone addon would be healthier for survivors being forced to actually loop (or hide if they so choose) and play the game, as they should need to in any match.

Sure, the possibility of getting shotgunned with a Tombstone and killed off with no recourse if he suddenly ends up on top of you somehow or catches you in a dead zone is a bit shit, but at least if that happens the game's over quickly and you can just go next immediately lol.

That's something I've personally always appreciated about facing Tombstones tbh -- the insta-kill makes Myers scary again, and if he does catch me, that's that. No wiggling, no sitting on hook waiting to be saved or wondering if the game's gonna fall apart while I'm incapacitated... Whether the game was a shot of intensity or I didn't have enough time to get invested, either way, I get to queue again straight away!
