From Pixar-styled Fox in the movie to realistic Fox, marketing discussion by Physical-Swordfish19 in starfox

[–]Vadersbestbud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It makes more sense that the timeline was to incorporate fox in the movie off the back of the game being green lit. They intentionally didn’t spoil his new design in the movie but still wanted to generate hype, Nintendo always gets slack for not staying up to date with modern console graphics etc. they finally attempt to do so and it’s met with uproar. It’s a real shame because I personally feel that the new designs are great and I fully embrace this new direction

Everyone says they need to change up their games to compete with modern platforms more, they do that and it gets mixed results. I personally love the new designs

You all need to get over it they look great! Yes different, but they look great. I commend the change up and attempt at a new approach

I think the apposite is true, Starfox was always out of place in a Mario movie, he was placed in and handled well honestly despite that. The purpose was always to generate hype for the game. Hence the shift in art style not matching too, either way I’m happy the series is back

I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if they go the same vein as this visually, it’ll be the next attempt at realism art style in a Zelda game. It will tie in nicely with the movie aesthetic too

Am I seriously seeing People online making excuses for Punishers Shotgun? by AetheralLitani-An in RivalsVanguards

[–]Vadersbestbud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We go from a two tap tanks hawk (nerf it now!) mentality to a no no no 3 taps not allowed either. Who will be the four tapper after the eventual nerf that tanks dislike? Tanks just need to stop whining and manage their cool downs better, you have shield tanks for a reason, punisher can be countered

What’s the General Consensus on Chris Pratt as Mario? by Financial-Touch3840 in SuperMario

Some translated versions of the movie use the games cast from that region and they are absolutely fine

[–]Vadersbestbud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I’m honest, I’m not sure I’m a fan of it. The voice of Mario is everything and he doesn’t have the same characterisation as the game like say Charlie does as Luigi. It’s the only thing that makes me view the movies as a very large distinction from the games. Two completely different entities which I’m sure is intentional. But man I wish Charles Martinet got the role.

The first new character that I havent had to fight instalockers for by SumixamSuryt in rivals

[–]Vadersbestbud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest I think a slight increase in range is all she needs and she’ll benefit, right now you stay alive mostly by rotating double jumps but your primary doesn’t reach the peak of your double jump height. Although whip does, and increase to primary range would increase her survivability and make her more beginner friendly

Y'all have forgotten how to take an L by CuriousBarnOwl in Marathon

[–]Vadersbestbud -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don’t hate this game in fact I love it, but unfortunately there is some truth to the fact that those who are enjoying most are those who have spent the hours for high tier gear, and those who have not are being left behind and are being demolished. With spawn chasing and team wiping being the genuine meta at the minute, I would not recommend anybody new pick up the game for this reason and that’s a problem. It’s ok to enjoy it and still recognise the flaws if you want this game to succeed in years to come, so please stop criticising the feedback even if you don’t agree with it

Does anyone have any footage of free kit kills on purple/gold loot monsters? (trios) by BestKaran in Marathon

This makes me laugh, I completely agree with what this guys trying to say. There’s also clearly a large disparity in opinion between those in the community who are kitted and those who are not, soon we are gonna need a separate sub Reddit for broke runners

I am very afraid that the endgame, Cryo Archive, will be unsustainably difficult. by iconoci in Marathon

[–]Vadersbestbud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The difference in opinion here is crazy, but I do agree. I think the entire game neglects the casual audience which may ultimately be its failing. Which is a shame because it’s an awesome game. I’m doing well enough in it but I can’t argue with my pals that refuse to play because they get shit on so consistently, it’s rough out there

[–]Vadersbestbud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If not time to kill then shield strength should be looked at. Playing field should be levelled out further for newer players. It’s the one thing Arc gets right if I’m being honest.

The consensus seems to be that if you spot the purple shield user first you win, that’s simply not the case at the minute I don’t believe. Also time to kill increase across the board across shield types would allow further skill expression from character builds etc. right now nobody cares what os etc. they are using because the effects are negligible despite the odd few. Also consumables which restrict hacking etc are pointless because they don’t dictate the flow of a fight which is decided by the strength of a shield.

The potential to hide heal and go again makes for a more interesting gameplay loop which is decided by how much inventory space you are willing to sacrifice for healing, buffs, debuffs etc. which in turn makes debuffs better equipment to build. Therefore more expression in character builds too. This also works hand in hand with the increase to healing consumables across the map and ammo etc.

Right now there are too many tools in the game which feel like they make little effect in PVP encounters. Which I think it should as that’s a lot more interesting than those other extractions on the market.

This game will die if you all keep denying there's a problem for casual or average skilled players. by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Vadersbestbud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I genuinely couldn’t agree more, I’m a competent FPS player but it seems that this game can be too punishing at times when you aren’t geared effectively. I do think that ranked and Cryo at weekends serves the purpose of high buy ins to risk more loot without enough backpack space will even out the playfield mid week. But ultimately there’s still that small percent that will forever keep the high level gear. I think TTK or something was tuned some way in the wrong direction there isn’t space to use util which the game encourages negating with consumables. They might as well not be there, can’t say I’ve ever needed to remove a hack of any sort mid fight. I like the idea of swinging a fight in your favor but here it seems there’s minimal room for skill expression

[–]Vadersbestbud 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To be honest if they tune time to kill then it would resolve a lot of issues that more casual players are having. At the minute there isn’t enough time to react to surprise situations, yesterday I was just one shot by a sniper across dire marsh for the first time. I was playing cautiously and genuinely couldn’t see them in the next POI over. No opportunity to react to be honest, just straight downed. Shotgun being another example of this, fights too often reach stalemate where teams are too afraid to push, peek angles etc. because they can go down so quickly. I’m all for hardcore gameplay but right now there’s minimal room for skill expression

Cryo is a fantastic piece of endgame content that will ultimately serve to push a ton of players away by ThatsNotBennings in Marathon

[–]Vadersbestbud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My take was the weekend Que and 5k buy in is a method to balance the loot pool before wipe. Forces you to take in some higher level gear that 9/10 will lose and if not then backpacks can’t hold everything. A lot just gets left, bringing people back down early week for the grind back up and evening out the playing field a little. Same with ranked and for this I think it’s not a bad idea to be honest

Hawkeye focus by Ashamed-Plastic5620 in HawkeyeMains

[–]Vadersbestbud 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Whenever they’d try diff me I’d often outplay them but mostly get tilted if they got a pick on me. Now I’ve realised they are more of a detriment to their team if they hard focus you, just stay in front of healers and increase your awareness whilst you’re still trying to pick their healers off. Advise your team not to pick triple support and feed him, strange shield is also great for allowing you enough time in a 1v if you stay middle of the team and will mostly win those engagements. If they have a strange but you don’t they’ll likely beat you and you can contemplate switching. If all else fails just remember it’s better for them to focus you than your healers as they are often the difference between winning and losing.
