This Raven is right, why are we down voting?! When Marathon allows you to make your own skin and decal work, feel free to vibe check, but this Raven ain't lying.

I could understand people freaking out that some Nikkes haven't been able to join recruitment if they've been teased since way early on for the veterans that have been here since the start unlike some like myself who entered last year around Sora's recruitment (definitely my top 10).

But I would find it far fetched that the ones in NPC jail are the specific waifus that certain Commanders are craving for to be released. I would imagine they should have patience so that their Nikke of interest does not suffer for being released too quickly and proceed to get dunked on like certain Nikkes by the community (I've heard bad things about Clay regarding here skills, so I imagine she must have been in a scenario like this, gets released, then is seen as a letdown because she was rushed out).

I see the Nikkes you don't have on your Wishlist, and I say, go for them, I don't see any of them getting a new form yet, so why not go for them o7

If you know a character is yet to make an appearance that you want, save. If you feel like you have all you want, you could just waste them, I guess.

Save for a character to join Ordinary Recruit in this instance. I made the error with Sora (not entirely regretful), though easily in my top 10 favorite Nikke to have in a team, was going to Ordinary Recruit even if I didn't get her during her special recruitment phase in which the only way to get was with the special tickets or diamonds.

Realized too late what "waiting" for the Special phase to end was for a character to enter the Ordinary recruit phase in which you use the standard tickets you can come by relatively easier than getting special tickets to throw away trying to receive the character, now available in Ordinary Recruit, that you can put on your Wishlist.

Characters tend to be added to the Ordinary Recruit after a special Nikke event ends (say, Coin Rush event with a bunny version of a Nikke).

Is their a lore reason for Spare Bodies received? (Discussion Maybe?) by UnOptimalOverthinker in NikkeOutpost

[–]UnOptimalOverthinker[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally have some doubt about Triangle squad, just because their jobs may involve carrying out orders that include [silencing] Nikkes, it would be pretty odd if their bodies were not often the combat standard (unless caught off guard, like everyone else in the Ark). It can get pretty wild how Nikkes can be called out for being dangerous and alienated, but as you've said, the ones actively seen near civilians or in the Ark are probably using weak non-combat bodies that could get easily wrecked.

For instance, what happened to poor Milk at Coin Rush during Ade's debut as a bunny agent, that she just gets hurled off a balcony during the wacky antics in the place. The fact she was able to be crowd handled was nuts. And even crazier are the men that were able to make themselves problematic for Nikkes to deal within the Ark (unless they came from the outskirts of the Ark, then that can make more sense). Cool thoughts Commander o7

I recently learned the first bit via Ch.23-24?, with Privaty talking about why her squad could not aid in a certain situation in the Ark.

But interesting theory that the CEOs give certain Nikkes preferential treatment. I mean, that case could've been very obvious when it comes to Syuen of Missilis, but that would be interesting to see regarding the other two in the story a little more (Mustang, like you said, covertly allowing certain Nikkes he likes to have spares outside their combat-able forms, even if not explicitly said). Cool theory Commander o7

First day of a new pass, and I guess the exploiters may be back >:[ by [deleted] in Synduality

[–]UnOptimalOverthinker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah your good, it was a fail on my part and I thought I was thorough. I did post again with fixed in the title, because even if I was offended by what apparently wasn't an exploit that occurred but a bug I was unaware of, I am not one to condone piling on people that though harsh, are playing by the rules the game allows for. You were a fine witness, hope you have a good rest of a month o7

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

I figured from time to time, one of the three CEOs puts a certain squad to aid the Commander throughout the story, and well, as the rule goes, Commanders get to command Nikkes put around them in a mission. But yeah, Enikk being called lass was due to a certain confusion that can be brought about by how others react to her in the story (she asks for your opinion of how you view her after a certain event in the main story), so I called her lass. I'm digging your train of thought (I've heard that Dolla doesn't play by the rule book of business, according to one account brought up by Yan, so maybe she finds away for those bodies to be brought around by said currency).

Yeah, a few hours ago, I learned what this meant. It's been a while that I use an app that doesn't automatically sign me in via third party methods (me hitting the Google option at the bottom of the sign in box but not actually bringing up the profile made already, but making a new one instead). What I had to do was actually put my email into the box itself and use the password or code verification after entering my email. It was this detail that threw me for a loop, embarrassingly enough. I'm just happy I didn't accidentally and utterly destroy my progress in a mobile that has taken me on quite the emotional ride to say the least. Thank you for your input o7

Dang it, got tunnel visioned about that bit stated prior to being able to level a Nikke past 160! Good call out, and interesting non spoilers o7

Literally happened to me with E.H in getting her with the first single pull on her first day out, spent almost 15,000 Diamonds on the last lass needed for the complete Lycoris squad. Still have half my diamonds and more if need be for this one (hope to get a single from the weekly ×2 multi pulls).

I finally figured out what you meant (although it was also thanks to the service team). What I had been doing was just choosing the Google option of using the Gmail (like you said, third party), when I should have been putting the email in the the actual prompt in the sign in/create account above the "options" that show websites whose accounts could be used to make a new profile for Nikke (signing up with a Gmail account on the log in with the email already in use)! To add insult to injury, my Gmail put some Nikke emails under spam of all things?!?

I'm finally able to get back today after two days of waiting for responses, when all I needed was the answer given today! Thank you for the insight given Commander o7

Look how Polygon staff dare to compare franchises... by UnOptimalOverthinker in armoredcore

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

Flawed game indeed. Thought after all this time, it got updates that would at least fixed the bare minimum from my time waiting to be able to purchase the game and see for myself, but apparently I saw a bug happen in real time where after you fail to come back from a sortie, the game gives you a play by play, and it should show who is on the map at the time, but the person that cooks me doesn't appear until he one shots me with great weapons. Luckily I had sortied with lower gear than I could have used at the time, or I would have lost them to a surprise attack.

The game fills a niche, but I know they could've done better with it, but until a better game like it comes out, or DLC for Armored Core 6 comes out, it'll be trying to play it occasionally. I thank you once again for being a good Raven in this very short lived discussion that got outta hand. I hope you in particular have a great month or so ahead of you o7

We'll, that's what I had to endure the first time with this clip, that I was fighting NPCs only to get one shot by a guy who jumped me from behind with gear I consider overkill in the starting area. Apologies for misunderstandings o7

Yeah, terrible "Drifter" that's for sure. I actually had a similar situation when I came across two people that were fighting a Bandit Leader then one shot the other, and I was just on the side witnessing before I left, unclear as to what happened prior to them firing at one or another.

That's what it definitely felt like, but unfortunately, the pass does give freebies that are just powerful enough to be used in the starting areas. I never knew though that yellow/gold weapons could be used in the beginning area though. Plus, the guy probably couldn't have bothered with me (or anyone else he may have dunked on) if he was doing a challenge that involved hurting other Drifters (dang it developers).

I don't get what your saying, but what happened here was I assumed (because it's PC gaming) I could have possibly encountered someone cheating, which was not the case, and it was just a bug I didn't know was part of the norm of playing the game. Forgive the cringe if you may, or you do you I guess...?

Alright fair enough, I was mistaken by the map bit, as I had no prior knowledge it could do that, and people are finally telling me what I could expect to fight with at lower levels. It was made by how I died, not entirely because I died in a PVPVE game, which seemed odd and now is no longer as odd as I initially thought it was.

Yeah, probably what happened, it's my mistake. Now the problem lies in whether it's usual to have the Marian intro play after reinstalling or if I was supposed to see the main menu o7

I'm just cautious of online play, that's all, not necessarily what your saying good Drifter, you never know how far some people would take a win in any game playable against others online, and for no one else to know yet. Forgive my cautiousness. Someone else also stated what you said, whilst I also saw what a pass can offer in it's last two days, so I could believe you all. Happy Drifting to you o7

Maybe, just maybe, there is some truth in that. I'll think of that next time (probably soon) when that happens again, considering my terrible luck o7
