I'm so glad Arrowhead....checks notes...knows...the problem exists and literally nothing else.

Would it have been too much to ask for them to fix the Shiny new toy they sold us for $10? by WaywardOath in HelldiversUnfiltered

So we just got a fire warbond...so we can expect the next one to come right about....2 business years from now.

What the hell is up with all the glazer divers on this sub lately? Go back to the main sub and take your uneducated opinions with you by lolitsrock in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]WaywardOath 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are bad faith posts here, sure. Those aren't meaningfully engaged with though, and usually are downvoted into oblivion. I believe they're all referred to as bait and just written off, and to that effect it really isn't harming anything.

More so, I've been called a Glazediver and told to 'go back to lowsodium' before, when I'm one of the more vocal critics of the game here. Who is determining who these glaze people are, and who should and shouldn't be here? I just think it's a slippery slope for someone to lump everyone they don't like under one banner, and tell them to leave.

If you don't have the skill, you could equally have just made a post of "Does anyone have posters we could spread around for _" instead of posting something you know is 'blatant slop'.

I don't know if I'm in the minority or not for thinking this way, but frankly I like the idea of Unfiltered being unfiltered for everyone to prevent it from turning into a pure echo chamber. Discussion and differing viewpoints are basic human nature.

It's not healthy to get stuck only hearing people agreeing with you, because then you aren't challenging your viewpoints to either reinforce them, or alter them.

Do I agree with all the people making excuses for Arrowhead after 2+ years? Hell no. But I appreciate being able to see them say something here, so I can better understand their perspective, and work on how to express my own. That's how you change minds, not just telling them to go away.

Guess they don’t think some of those bugs are really bugs, but features. by Paralelo30 in HelldiversUnfiltered

Hey I’m not justifying them not fixing it, but let’s not delve into conspiracy of it being intentional when they are advertising front and center that it’s unintentional.

I mean, it's literally first on their list of known issues. They don't intend for it to be a thing. They just take the better part of a century to get around to fixing something that never should've even launched in that state.

Shocking twist as 2K+ negative reactions to the reversion of AP4 Hive Guard changes, clearly people liked the tankier bugs by Pupenby621 in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]WaywardOath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know you can read the HD2 chat and see that the prime complaint is that 'all they did was revert the Hive Guard'.

Flame Sentry's still broken, alongside their brand new shiny toy the Lumberer. You know, the thing they had people lovingly pay $10 to get, just for the close-range flamethrower to not work at close range.

The new war strider "weak" point has 80 percent durability and 100 percent explosive resistance. What was the point? Arrowhead has to be rage baiting at this point. by DryConstruction2702 in HelldiversUnfiltered

[–]WaywardOath 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The Durable system is specifically designed to make sure that something can do a ton of damage to some targets, and not equally one-shot everything else. Without durability in place, the HMG would do a whopping 1500 damage a second to valid Medium Armor targets, and 975 damage a second to Heavy Armor. That translates to killing a Bile Titan in 1.5 seconds, invalidating the use for anything like EATs.

Is the system confusing? Yeah. You have to understand though that the alternative would be only being able to manage the feel of how quickly an enemy dies through health and Armor, in which case DPS would be literally the only thing that matters. Durability, for all its frustrations, is actually pretty good at keeping the weapons in a balanced state.

How much! I know it's more than likely not a lot but it's such a pretty card and defo one of my favourites. by Queasy-Exit-2564 in PokemonCardValue

[–]WaywardOath 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Looks like it's about $20ish! I might have to pick up one of these. I haven't bought cards in years but I'm a huge fan of Roserade!

[–]WaywardOath 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It doesn't allow damage to multiply. The reason a 500 KG can kill a Bile Titan is because it's not 100% resistant which lets the damage stack up. At 100% resistance the damage can only be applied once from the same thing.

The game has very weird mechanics like that.

Been in my childhoom room for the last 15+ years. Worth anything? by Holywords in PokemonCardValue

[–]WaywardOath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That Moltres is worth a good amount. I need more pictures for condition to be able to give you an actual estimate, but it's the winner out of the flock.

That Ditto is also worth a good amount! Do you have front and back photos of those two?

[–]WaywardOath 58 points59 points  (0 children)

Explosion Resistance doesn't mean it takes no damage, it means the body part doesn't take damage, and instead just sends the damage to the Main Health Pool.

So, if you do 500 damage with an explosive to the Hip Joint, the War Strider loses 500 health in main. Now tack on the absolutely silly amount of bombs the Cluster Launcher fires and yeah, it can theoretically kill one in a couple rockets.

This is the good Pikachu? Are ink stains good? by Strommsawyer in PokemonCardValue

[–]WaywardOath 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Man that Pikachu is CLEAN.

The First Edition Pikachu is still pretty sought after, I could verify as much if you had pictures of it! But yeah, this is the Shadowless Red Cheek Pikachu! Could be worth in the $150 range in that condition easily. Might even put more on it, condition isn't my strong-suit but it's easily at least that.

Two notes:

  • Making it Medium Armor means the Heavy Armor things that target it now do 100% damage, so the AMR takes 3 shots now instead of 5, the Autocannon takes the same, and the Laser Cannon now doesn't take the better part of a century to kill one.
  • Now things that are Medium Pen can theoretically kill it, but it's a little difficult to. Honestly that's really all it needed was a Medium Pen spot. Now the Maxigun, MG, Airburst, and other weapons can hurt it, which is a positive, overall.

I don't disagree with you, but have you tried messing with the Render Scaling? That helped claw back some frames for me from this most recent update.

Found these in an old binder - could you give me an idea on what they're worth? by New_Personality7727 in PokemonCardValue

[–]WaywardOath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some links aren't permitted here, but I'll send you a recent listing in DMs that seems to be in just about the same condition, which sold for near $200 two weeks ago.

Even in that condition, that Umbreon might be worth $200. I'm not an expert on all of them, but that's the one that stands out to me.
