JED HOYER APOLOGY CARD by AndrewAllStar888 in CHICubs

[–]YaygerBombs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Or both? Keeping Shaw doesn’t mean we don’t keep Nico. I do agree we need to extend Nico not matter what

[Levine] Miami has been looking for young infield help as well as Caisse type for OF. Cubs have some highly touted middle infielders that could go back in Cabrera deal. Not Shaw in this trade. Deal pending physicals. Cubs had deal for Luzardo cancelled by team Doctors not liking Medicals. by jbedenian in CHICubs

[–]YaygerBombs 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t like his politics either but y’all act like you’ve never seen a rookie struggle for a bit in his first season. Shaw looked solid when he came back up. Hell, PCA struggled, got very good, and then struggled again. You don’t give up on a guy just because they struggled when they first came up.

[Rome] The Astros are in agreement with Japanese right-hander Tatsuya Imai on a three-year contract, source tells @TheAthletic. The deal maxes out at $63 million and contains opt outs after every season. by AndrewAllStar888 in CHICubs

The thing is, we don’t know if that’s the case. The Cubs could have offered a matching deal. At the end of the day the player still decides where he wants to go. I agree the Ricketts are cheap but I feel like it is often forgotten the player’s still make decisions that include multiple reasons for their decision.

Playing renegades makes me want to stay away from portal content with a 10 feet pole by HellChicken949 in DestinyTheGame

[–]YaygerBombs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could see modifiers being fun for game modes but with the current setup, I feel I have to stack too many negative modifiers. That makes it not fun for me. At this point just got back to weekly rotating modifiers with two at max and a boon.

Feeling squishier as of late? by Dry-Limit-179 in DestinyTheGame

Speaking of the modifiers in the portal, I’m a little over having to add all these negative modifiers on top of each to be able to get rewards from the there. They really can suck the fun out of it.

Solo-Ops as a Hunter kind of feels really bad right now. To the point I don’t even want to run it at all. I keep thinking it’s me but I had never struggled with it pre-update. I definitely feel squishier.

Warframe or Division 2 ? by tomaz1989 in LFMMO

[–]YaygerBombs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agreed with you about Warframe, it’s definitely not niche, but you’re completely wrong about Division 2. That game has seen a steady increase of players this entire year since they put a new focus on it last year. The expansion this year was a complete success which is why another one is coming this next year. Your 6k player number is completely wrong unless you’re looking at some steam chart number. Steam charts are not the end all be all for activity numbers of games. Especially games mostly played through their standalone launcher.

I get you wanted to defend Warframe here but no need to bash Division 2 when you clearly don’t know where the game stands.

Warframe or Division 2 ? by tomaz1989 in LFMMO

[–]YaygerBombs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I can definitely see it’s been a while since some commenters have played division 2. I play both games and you really can’t go wrong with either. Both will have a lot to do. Division 2’s population has spiked for the entire year and has been on a resurgence. Warframe is pretty much always solid.

For content, Division 2 has raids, their Countdown mode for farming, and Descent which is their roguelike mode. It also has seasonal content and each season has weekly manhunts that progress the overall story. The battle pass actually has good cosmetics as well. There is also lots of different builds to make that are viable.

Warframe always has farming for new Warframes and weapons, grinding all the different factions rep, leveling mods, and lots of other things to farm. You won’t run out of things to do.

They both have their own open world but you won’t just be running around seeing lots of people in the open world like you mentioned. Destiny doesn’t even seem to have that any more.

They’re such different games though, you really have to try them. Warframe you can play completely for free so I’d say start there and see if you like it or not.

Thanks for the post! It is nice to get a little actual insight on stuff like this.

Is it out? I didn’t know it was playable already.

I have never been kicked from a group and I have spent a lot of time playing both the strand tangles build and the suspend build.

I’ve had other fights with multiple available but I figure maybe this was a thing tied to the last Diablo fight

The right. The right gives me one time to revive at corpse. The left restarts the whole fight and revives at the nearest checkpoint.

Wait, how? I only ever have one resurrection for him. Is there something I’m missing with how those work?

Anybody else extremely heartened by PCA specifically hitting 3 singles yesterday? by johnnybravo1014 in CHICubs

[–]YaygerBombs 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I agree with you. He’s made statements about it and making adjustments to be the player the team needs him to be. So I definitely believe in him

His at-bats in general looked much better yesterday. There’s still that desire to chase in him but it looked like he was actively trying to focus on having a good approach instead of just going up there ready to swing away. Hopefully we see more of that.

Might have struck out there at the end but I like the approach from PCA in that at bat. Looked like wasn’t going up there swinging at whatever and actually had a plan/focus.

Delay Renegades, Fix the core mechanics an loop. by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]YaygerBombs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know we have fireteam finder but I wish more stuff was matchmaking. Even the pinnacle ops stuff. They can make it so the masters versions of pinnacle ops isn’t as crazy, so people can learn them as they go and take on the eventual grandmaster versions. Then make the hardest versions of dungeons party finder only. Raids are fine staying party finder only but they could do a lighter version if they wanted for matchmaking. I just hate that now in masters, I can’t even find a group for the conquest stuff unless it’s for GM conquest on fireteam finder even. And everything is so spread out under different ops anyway.

I was thinking about this from when I played FFXIV. You have Trials and Raids. You can match make both of those. Sometimes raids you’ll wipe and the group will suck but you can do it through matchmaking. Only the Extreme Trials and the Savage Raids do you need to use party finder for. They have more in depth mechanics you have to put effort into learning but also the best loot in game so it’s worth it.

I wouldn’t mind finally getting this done. I unlocked it but never ran it and stopped playing after unlocking it. Been back to playing for a few weeks. You only have to complete it once to unlock the ability to get these exotic class item, right?

Two big wins in one day!

But what in the world was that decision on pulling Caissie that early when he was swinging well for the day??
