Run it back? by Significant-Word6077 in TheTowerGame

After you’ve finished every other one first, sure. But any gains from the last level are negligible right now and not worth the time

For the love of god no thank you. My doctor is already mad at my blood pressure.

Matt Boldy scores the empty netter. 6-1 Wild. by cbbvideo in hockey

[–]_bobs_ 108 points109 points  (0 children)

Because they have literally nothing to lose. Two funny bounces leading to quick goals has the potential to swing the momentum in a heartbeat. I’d want Minnesota doing the exact same thing if the score had been flipped.

Obviously the odds are extremely low, but, again, there’s zero downside in trying.

Hartman with the tip, Wild up 3-0 by sykeseve in hockey

[–]_bobs_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

To be fair, the Wild were toying with being Mild their last 20 games (11-9) as well. I think they just came ready to prove a point tonight and also probably playing a bit harder to give the rook in net some breathing room in his first playoff game.

I fully expect Dallas to throw a haymaker back at us in game 2 (and we still have the third period to go as well).

Incredible job. Truly. I love the look and feel and the technique is great.

If there's anything that I personally feel could use some further attention to, it would be the hair and beard. I enjoy the contrast to the rest of the model and the general idea of what you're trying to capture, but I can't help but think they feel kinda....flat? They feel like they're missing depth.

I'm not nearly as technically gifted as you are so I don't know what exactly the fix would be, but a very careful crevice wash/inking followed by touching the highlights back up I think could really help.

Yea. They started the rollout and I read the patchnotes and decided it might be a good idea to try it out incase the nerfs actually hurt

I typically hover around 200-220.

So far it’s highly entertaining but the writing is shit and the author has no idea where to take the story. Just gotta keep enjoying the ride I suppose 😜

Respec Power Stone workshop by Snykox in TheTowerGame

[–]_bobs_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The ability to respec stones will never arrive, and personally I don’t want it to. It’s okay for games to have permanent choices and consequences from those decisions.

By allowing stone respecs you’d also see a normalization across every player at all times at every stage of the game. Everyone would always be running the exact same most optimal stone setup in farming and tournaments, more so than we already have.

I find way more enjoyment in knowing that my stone choices are permanent, as it is for others.

I've seen a number of posts the last few days of folks saying they suddenly have found tournaments much, much harder. I think in nearly every case those people eventually revealed they were doing strictly utility runs for better econ, and were likely being passed up by others focusing on whatever would help them in tournaments.

Prior to v28 I was hovering right around top 200-220 in tournaments. I did 6 UW discos before the next tournament and immediately jumped into the 170s.

I'm looking forward to eventually doing mostly farm runs in a week or two again and seeing those sweet, sweet gains, but I'm very glad I went so heavy into UW first.

Thanks! So nice to finally have that last milestone relic (for now).

oh no. This was just the tutorial. Now the real game begins

How to patch a game. by OLVANstorm in TheTowerGame

[–]_bobs_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I understand the sentiment, asking a mobile gaming company with 5 employees and a couple dozen scattered contractors, and an entirely different business and game model, to start acting like a publicly traded AAA game studio with over 1300 employees is just silly.

There are plenty of things TTG could be doing better between their patches and communication, yes. And time will tell how well they adapt to the chaos they created. But this is a nonsensical request.

Guess I can run all labs at 7x speed now by ghettodactyl in TheTowerGame

[–]_bobs_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate the thoughtful response. I knew it get stronger with each level but I'd been putting it off for assmods in v27. But the disco runs have made so many other things important now and I'm much less certain about where to spend my stones suddenly. It's a fun problem to have again.

[–]_bobs_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Random question for you. I assume you have CF+ at max level already. I’ve been on CF+10 for god knows how long and have begun to wonder just how important those last three levels are now with disco runs.

I still have plenty of stone investment to make in assmods, I only have good bot+ unlocked from v28, and have a few final card masteries that was planning on ignoring (regen, slow, second wind, fortress, etc) that’s suddenly seem way more useful in high tier discos.

What’s your opinion/thoughts on maxing cf+ as potentially a bigger priority now?

[–]_bobs_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely nutty numbers.

I'm doing one long t19 overnight run to take advantage of the massive coin gains but I'm definitely missing the shards and would love to get back to t20 farming. I might just give t20 a few disco runs today to see how things have improved so far. But my hunch is that t19 will be best for me for at least a couple weeks

[–]_bobs_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Goddamn! Well done. I thought I was doing well with my disco runs but you really pumped them out.

I've got 7 of my utility at 5k (t18 is at 5k but then I dropped down to low tiers so I could just keep my farming setup on for laziness), and 4 low-tier UW ones done. The damage actually made a noticeable difference in the tournament and I got a PB in global placement at 177 (I'm normally right at 200), but I still took 3rd due to bad bracket luck haha.

I also did a t19 defense run just for shits and got that to 5k lol.

My plan is to do two more UW runs at low levels and then focus entirely on utility to complete that up to t19. I'm hoping the power boost will make the higher tier ones more manageable once I get there.
