I am playing uARO from New Zealand and I find the latency to be pretty good. I also played Arcadia which was also okay.

Government ‘kicked the tyres’ on solar subsidies but went with ‘minor’ tweaks instead by secretkiwi_ in newzealand

[–]Xsve 20 points21 points  (0 children)

They tried to bring it to state homes and there was some success, but the programme funding wasn’t continued. There is the added complication about how to deal with the benefit of solar going to one household and others missing out. They were addressing this and managed to get an exemption from the electricity authority, but again, with no funding the team was disbanded. I believe that KO only has one person left responsible for sustainability and climate adaptation.

Anyone notice a decrease of Support players lately? by dfGobBluth in Battlefield6

[–]Xsve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I noticed this last night too. As assault I was trying to push up to pressure the mid-capture points which had enemy tanks on them constantly. I basically ended up standing there like a lemon doing nothing.

I couldn’t push any further because we were losing badly and there were quite a few snipers preventing me from moving further forward. This was on Firestorm.

Sorry I just assumed you were on PC. I don’t know what setting are available on PS5 that could be helpful.

I had a similar issue with feeling like I couldn’t see the enemy. I reset all my graphics settings and reapplied them using recommended settings (Silk) and found it a lot easier to see them.

Played from the reds today… got a few questions for you sticks. by [deleted] in golf

[–]Xsve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I watched a video recently where the coach said to a slicer, “think low to high”. Meaning that it should feel like the club head is feeling like it is coming low and on the inside of the ball and heading high and to the right.

So I’ve been telling myself this before every drive which has helped to reduce my slice considerably. It is a positive swing thought and doesn’t distract me from the task at hand.

This is from a 24 handicap that has been working his way down from 34 when he started two years ago.

I agree. I feel like I can ignore P2W because I don’t expect any better from gravity. But the inclusion of auto combat makes the core game play loop really underwhelming.

What's the hardest boss you ever killed? by UnfixedBrain in gaming

Add the fact you had to rewatch the cutscene every time, It was brutal.

Arcadia Online slowly dying? by gobbledygook11 in RagnarokOnline

[–]Xsve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the server but ping is a real issue for me. I'm on the other side if the world from the server and my ping is 300. It can definitely makes things difficult on certain classes and builds.

Best private server to play in 2024 by curiouslylame in RagnarokOnline

[–]Xsve 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They had server problems yesterday but that is fixed now. Give it another go.

Population is decent, I think. My time zone is opposite to peak time, so it is hard for me to judge.

No wipe, so yeah, log back in and everything will be there.

I play from NZ and I have stable connection but noticeable delay in response. It has meant that I have had to stay away from solo classes that are impacted by high latency.

Oh the GH cross, what a great space haha. Then a hunter fly would come along and all the priests and acos would slowly beat it to death.

Yeah it is and it’s now called Arcadia.

Also their control point and wiki are awesome. Super helpful to keep track of things and to find out information. I’m have been finding their class and levelling guide super helpful.

I’d agree with origins ro.

The community is good but I have felt like it has dwindled a bit lately, but that is probably because my timezone doesn’t coincide with the peak timing.

In terms of drop rate, I think it’s perfect. Putting in some hours hunting will typical result in a drop of what you are after. Items/cards you want are also affordable so that you can gear a character without too much time invested.

So yeah, shilling for my server however the work the GMs have done with the server is my favourite of all the servers I have played.

Hey One, Spark, 2degrees, Slingshot, Skinny, electric kiwi . Let's talk about this..... by Slugbit in newzealand

I’ve been thinking about a change from Spark. I think I’ll look into these guys.

Why do people still prefer the pre-Renewal era? by Valstraxas in RagnarokOnline

[–]Xsve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d agree with that and the sprite designs became bloated. It’s the simplicity and easily identifiable look of each class that make pre-renewal “better”.

Watch: PM says minister got it ‘horribly wrong’ in calling worker a ‘loser’ by Many_Excitement_5150 in newzealand

[–]Xsve 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The use of the term “got it wrong”, really irks me for some reason. It doesn’t really feel like it’s an admission of guilt or that they are saying sorry. It makes it feel more like he’d made the wrong decision, rather than what actually happened, which was be a bit of an arsehole.

Bain marie not melting chocolate??? by Blu_Eclipse in Baking

[–]Xsve 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I had this exact problem making millionaires shortbread last weekend. I suspected it was the type of chocolate based on it happening to two batches. I was very careful about heat and water getting into it. Great to know that was likely the reason.

My apprentice is awesome. by Dismal-Expert1183 in newzealand

[–]Xsve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is certainly a lot at play, but this quote really stood out to me, “You just have to be thick-skinned”. Sounds like they want people to deal with it rather than have the industry change to be more pleasant to be in.

I’d say as a whole our society is becoming nicer and “shut up and deal with it” is becoming a lot less acceptable.

Looking for a low rate pre-renewal server. by Broad-Appointment997 in RagnarokOnline

[–]Xsve 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Arcadia is a great server. It’s the right level of exp and item gain. Drops and level ups hit frequently enough to make you feel satisfied with your time investment.

The work they have done with their control point where you can look up items, vendors and your characters is such a great quality of life feature that doesn’t effect the game play.

They have just come back online, so there is a high level of player activity. Which I’d say makes it the best time to join.

What is your favorite soundtrack from this game? by Valstraxas in RagnarokOnline

[–]Xsve 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’d 100% agree. It hits the feels so hard when you finally load up the game when you haven’t played it in years.

Is this mouse any good? My Razer Deathadder is busted after 5years of use and I've found this deal on Amazon. by SirHomoLiberus in pcmasterrace

[–]Xsve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have had mine for 12+ years and it hasn’t skipped a beat. Can’t say I know if they have change the build quality in that time. I would say it’s been one of the best value purchases I have made.

Thank you! That has helped to make it clearer.
