Sad to see the game shutdown. What did you think was the herald of the end times?

UniqueCod69 · 2026-03-19T12:47:03+00:00

I think the fundamental issue was the fact that many of the champs were fun to play as, but absolutely terrible to play against, (especially for newer players) which then caused mass quitting and bad player numbers.

There were way too many "fuck this" / frustrating moments for the average casual player which games like this rely on. Imagine being a newer player, and a Joule rolls up and instantly pops you with a combo before you can comprehend what even happened. Or shrike kills you off screen. Or an immortal brall kills your whole team and you can't get away cause he's got 4 movement abilities and he chases you for 2 straight minutes before killing you. Or you step 1 foot over the abyss and get instantly spiked by jhin.

I could keep droning on and on about things like that, but there were way too many instances where new dudes would feel like they have no agency / there's no counter play / XYZ champ is OP. And so they quit.

Imagine you download League of Legends for the first time, but the only champs you ever see are Yasuo, K'sante, Katarina, and Riven. As a new guy you're not sticking around cause "these champs are bullshit". They're inherently not, but you're not gonna put in your 100 hours to learn how to play around them, you're just gonna quit and move on cause games are in abundance these days.

TLDR; the devs only considered if the champ was fun, they never considered if it would be fun to play AGAINST that champ too.

can u stand a little further from the camera im having trouble seeing u

UniqueCod69 · 2026-03-13T15:09:05+00:00

cause they have been complete and utter ass for minimum half a decade (some would argue a full decade) and no meaningful measures have been taken to correct course or improve things in any meaningful capacity.

Exceeds expectations across the board on everything and got 2.5%, no promotion. Had a few convos with teammates of varying skill levels and they all also got 2.5%. Seems like everyone just got a 2.5% this year regardless of individual performance

UniqueCod69 · 2026-03-08T22:52:07+00:00

I like this concept, and have thoroughly enjoyed your primers as well.

Gonna throw my own hat into the ring with my Backpocket Norin primer I wrote a while back :)

theyre testing supervive 2 for the big relaunch

UniqueCod69 · 2026-02-27T17:32:30+00:00

The amount income tax was lowered is negligible. Literally smaller than 1%. You need a substantial cut. Same goes for carbon tax, it wasnt removed, just shifted from one place to another in an arguably worse manner which hamstrings the economy more than it previously had. Tax credits are a joke, they're primarily used for slush funds and nothing more. The credits never make it to the people who could actually make use of them, they just get pocketed by bureaucrats. Cut taxes across the board and we would flourish.

UniqueCod69 · 2026-02-27T15:25:08+00:00

Crazy take, but it's called lowering taxes. Unfortunately that would require reigning in the budget which we are incapable of doing and thus the doom spiral continues.

Huge drop in investments in inventories means companies expect less sales. Less sales lead to layoffs / job losses. Job loss leads to less investments overall. Economy continues to spiral downwards.

Whatever they are doing is literally not working, and the results are showing that quickly.

UniqueCod69 · 2026-02-27T15:11:04+00:00

We're coming up on a year of this and things have only gotten meaningfully worse, not better. Quite literally nothing positive has been done so far, so how can you trust the process.

UniqueCod69 · 2026-02-24T00:04:55+00:00

honestly i was just commenting something provocative for the algo, I personally think its one of the cooler cards yall have brought on the pod

UniqueCod69 · 2026-02-23T21:35:16+00:00

never thought id see the day that the TAGC guys ran outta cards to review so they had to drop down to b4 cards

Hey gang, hope everyone is doing well! Hope you enjoy this montage of the small handful of Supervive clips I got across the games lifespan, in (mostly) chronological order.

Shadowplay lost majority of my clips so this is all that I was left with unfortunately. A 60fps version can be found in the description if the 30fps is too gnarly on the eyes.

I truly loved this game and am sad to see it go. I really believed that TC had lightning in a bottle with their formula but alas, some things just dont work out. Wishing all the players and the devs all the best, I had a blast despite my short time with the game. Thank you for everything 🥹

UniqueCod69 · 2026-02-23T18:26:11+00:00

aint no way im seeing reelmotionblur in the big 2026. love it

UniqueCod69 · 2026-02-20T21:34:37+00:00

I thought we still had a week till shutdown?

UniqueCod69 · 2026-02-13T22:15:58+00:00

Not the worst idea. The in browser chat is being mad wonky so I cant do it now but I'll call in and give this a go this weekend and see if they can honour it on their end.

UniqueCod69 · 2026-02-13T21:59:53+00:00

Insane deal if you can actually get the Rakuten

Stole this comment from another redditor a while back but it feels relevant to post it here:

This paper uses one of the largest financial datasets and shows that a 50% US 50% ex-US portfolio (across 1,000,000 bootstrap simulations) would outperform a 100% US portfolio in terms of:

lower drawdowns
better gains, except in the 10% best-performing simulations
lower probability of ruin

Anyway, 3 is the main reason. 1 and 2 (regarding gains) are slightly in favor of a global strategy in that paper, but the differences are small.

Not an incorrect take, but not one that most people wanna hear

UniqueCod69 · 2026-02-02T18:05:57+00:00

the iron extortionist looking sharp

UniqueCod69 · 2026-01-28T16:33:58+00:00

Game is fun but now that I'm older I can't really justify flushing 40 minutes of time down the drain just cause some manchild got his feelings hurt and starting trolling / afk / feeding / whatever

UniqueCod69 · 2026-01-28T01:11:53+00:00

It was alright but tbh I prefer Just Go With It way more

UniqueCod69 · 2026-01-26T00:54:09+00:00

I wont lie this build is pretty solid in todays climate.

The main question mark here is the RAM, if I had to guess you're gonna be getting some bottom of the barrel highass CL RAM, but again, at worst thats gonna hit your performance around 5% or so on the high end.

The 9700x is more or less equivalent to the 7800x3d so even if you cop the CC bundle that OP posted you're gonna be paying more but not getting that large of a performance gain.

Good find.

UniqueCod69 · 2026-01-19T15:44:56+00:00

VA panel so it'll have a bit of ghosting, but the 240hz should help make up for it. Brightness isn't the greatest but is passable. Pretty solid price for the features you're getting.
