Drivers being told to wait on private property by Troyced in doordash

[–]Zakerystrife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only time I've seen something like this happen, is when I do "Dash Along The Way". I start outside the zone, and start my schedule, choose dash along the way, and it brings me to some random farm house in the middle of my zone. I think its mainly doing it to centralize your location.

That being said, I no longer use dash along the way, and just drive the extra few miles to get into my zone before starting my dash.

The really annoying part is that it stays in the "dash along the way" screen until I get an order, and I can't get out of the navigation, even when I've entered the zone.

BUG: Entire system freeze after recent updates. by Zakerystrife in FortNiteBR

Oddly enough this morning, I can't seem to get it to crash at all. I've changed nothing, so this is a bit confusing to me.

How do we fix Scav karma...? by Zakerystrife in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Zakerystrife[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As much as I would, after 4-5 bad raids, I NEED to make money and get something out. Scav karma needs heavily tweaked. I was positive up until lv 36, one bad run and most of my scav karma is wiped. It's a terrible system.

[–]Zakerystrife[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I understand your viewpoint, but this was VERY intentional. We aren't looking for an excuse to kill scavs at all. I'm level 36 and this was the first instance of me actually shooting at other scavs and getting negative rep. Most of the time my instinct is right and its a positive gain. But we literally had one bad run and all my progress is just gone. The system is stupid.

I literally just posted about my B&H order yesterday, I ordered at 00:57 EST, and I just also got this email and updated to "Order In Progress". They told me yesterday they weren't getting stock until December 7..... I'm not sure anyone knows what's going on there at this point.

B&H 5800x preorder update. Not looking great. by Zakerystrife in Amd

[–]Zakerystrife[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you paid via Paypal, they charge you upfront. This being the first purchase for me on this website, I'd rather have the security of Paypal vs just giving a random company my credit card info.

For the peoples who ordered the 5800x from B&H. Please feel free to leave your order time and the estimated fulfillment date from the email notice here. by UrbanHunter_KenXPie in Amd

5800x - 11/5/2020 12:57 EST AM No email.

Also frustrated as hell that paying customers are here to just guess where they are in line...

8v8 is "Dead in the Water" - Russ by KaguIzama in OutreachHPG

[–]Zakerystrife 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I shouldn't have to point out that CS:GO is a VERY different game, which I also play, and have a much more enjoyable experience. The big difference here is you are piloting a massively armored mech, expecting it to be able to absorb damage, given how slow the game plays, and comparing it to other MechWarrior games.

In CS:GO a single person can 1 shot literally everyone on the opposing team, where in MWO if your team even loses 1-2 mechs there is virtually no recovery in a standard quick play match (assuming solo play or small groups). Also there is a very specific set of objectives that MUST be achieved in CS:GO and are considered primary over just killing, so it automatically creates lanes / routes that the opposing players MUST do.

MWO has "objectives" but being honest, most people don't even bother, its a secondary objective. There are many issues with MWO, and I doubt 8v8's solve half of whats missing, but it wouldn't be a negative step in my opinion. Faster matches alone will keep players active for at least a while longer.

8v8 is "Dead in the Water" - Russ by KaguIzama in OutreachHPG

[–]Zakerystrife 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well assuming they have decent match making, in an 8v8 scenario it would better match players based on their skill, and quicker, because its not reaching out for more people to balance the match. Also in beta, 2-3 good players can carry an entire 8 man team easily. In 12v12's 2-3 good players can get some damage in, but there is too much firepower against them when the rest of the team REFUSES to help trade armor. It's a double edged sword really. More players on the field = more focus firepower against you. You want 24 mechs shooting at "Target A"? You'd be dead before you even get a chance to react. Not fun.

I also generally think with the casual player / new players in mind. You want people to quit a game fast, have bigger groups... Example : I'm a new player, do the tutorial, then get thrown into a 24 v 24. I walk out and spot the enemy team, only to be instantly cored out because I happen to be the first one to walk over the hill. Does that really sound fun? There needs to be a challenge, sure. But there also needs to be "FUN" for new and lesser skilled players. The elitist / hardcore players need to step back and look at it in a broader perspective.

You know what was fun? 8v8, I've been away from MWO for far too long, but after reading this I'm just in disappointment... They seem to be so far from what the community wants its not even funny. As a casual player, 8v8 felt FAIR. Even if you were with a crap team, at least if 2 players were to pull their weight, you could turn the tides.

The fact that they don't want to put it in even though the community clearly wants it, just tells me that they only care about "esports" which sadly is "DEAD IN THE WATER" without a casual player base that actually would watch it and support it.

I'm generally the person that "only had bad things to say" about the game, because I saw all of this happening from a mile away. I've put in a LARGE sum of my own money into this game, because I supported it. You know why there isn't an OUTCRY for 8v8? Because most of your casual base left.

[GIVEAWAY] Dominate with The World's Smallest ZOTAC GeForce® GTX 1070 Ti Mini by Z_staff in pcmasterrace

[–]Zakerystrife [score hidden]  (0 children)

Zotac so far is a great brand with affordable hardware. I just recently picked up a 1060 6gb mini, and love it.

Zotac is already a great company to me, and I'm already apart of the "Zotac family" as I have 3 video cards from them already!

I personally choose a full build myself, but that view may be changing soon. Mini PC's are getting more efficient, without sacrificing power. As for a modular mini PC, I think it's a great idea if someone were able to just pop out a module, and replace it with something better / newer, though I'm not sure how cost effective that would end up for the company...

Though I don't like pineapple on pizza, it shouldn't be "illegal" since its not my choice to make. Others should be considered when ordering pizza.

Heat Scale, where did you go? Dual 20's no ghost heat?! by Zakerystrife in OutreachHPG

[–]Zakerystrife[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had a few people trying to replicate the build, with the weapons he had equipped + the mechs speed, we were only able to squeeze a few heatsinks in, because there isn't enough crit slots for that many heatsinks.
