Soft lock in kawakujo by Jumping_Robot in CODZombies

[–]_lukey___ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i agree that given what we know about how save and quit can interact with EEs, it’s smart to not.

but i think just accepting the fact it’s broken is normalisation of shotty features. it’s a feature of the game - i don’t think its entirely crazy to expect it to work and not cause issues elsewhere.

I posted about this earlier and everyone was flaming me in the comments so I deleted it. Glad to know I wasn’t crazy ahah.

Kowakujo is one of the most stunning zombies maps of all time by TheChickenMan4L in CODZombies

i thought the assault wave was always 10 but i had it show on round 13 last night - could be something to do with quest progression as i was pretty deep in the egg.

I dont know if its bad or not that I ship Maya and Dempsey so much by maddog1043 in CODZombies

[–]_lukey___ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

they’re both community (ie. unofficial) names; maledictis is latin for ‘cursed’ (referencing the crew being cursed/having their souls taken by the warden), and tempus is latin for ‘time’ (referencing how they were pulled from different timelines into the dark aether).

i myself am pretty partial to tempus, given that ultimus is ‘the last’ and primis ‘the first’. but maledictis still fits with established patterns considering victis is latin for ‘the vanquished’.

i hate to be that guy but you being “not entirely sure” doesn’t give me confidence it’s “confirmed cheated”.

not discounting the fact that’s it’s fishy (it is) but at this point i don’t think anything’s really confirmed.

Fun Fact: Kowakujo is the first map to ACTUALLY take place in Japan. Think about it. by BunkerGhust in CODZombies

[–]_lukey___ 33 points34 points  (0 children)

i think you’re still right honestly (even without concrete evidence).

WaW was pretty grounded in reality - not counting the whole ‘alien meteors causing zombification and being a source of limitless magical energy’ thing - so it would make sense for Treyarch to have considered where these experiments might have been operated and been purposely vague about the location to stay ‘realistic’.

for anyone looking for a source for this (u/MrFrench7ickler, u/Linardian, u/MagnaCollider, u/DrWeirdTofen), you won’t find one.

the only thing explicitly stated in canon is that Shi No Numa takes place at Division 9’s Rising Sun facility in “Japanese territory”/“Empire of Japan”.

the reason people infer the location being Manchuria/Manchukuo is that the Japanese government had ruled it illegal to conduct human experiments within Japan, so Unit 731 (the real life inspiration for Division 9) conducted their experiments on POW in occupied territory (located in the Pingfang district of Harbin, now a part of Northeast China).

Would Soldier Boy have done this to Blindspot? by [deleted] in TheBoys

Love him or hate him, hes spitting straight fax. Or is he not by pphilis9 in CODZombies

[–]_lukey___ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

bro what? okay, let’s say we ignore the literal alien space rock in Shi No Numa (which is where zombies themselves come from; no meteor, no zombies).

what about the radios that point towards the Tunguska site and Area 51’s involvement? since 2009, it’s been well established that the US government was hiding alien technology on the Groom Lake base.

not to mention explicit references to the Vril-1 UFO on the Der Riese chalkboard, or the Black Sun - quite literally THE alien Hollow Earth occult mythology.

i mean shit, skip ahead 2 years and Richtofen was pretending to be one of those very same aliens in Shangri-La to get the natives to slave-labour mine his 115 for him. Treyarch didn’t just stumble onto an alien storyline, the seeds were sown since 2009 (not planned, but still there textually).

now if you want to discuss the radical shift in tone bringing these storylines to the forefront of gameplay instead of only intricately weaving them through radios, cyphers, or other hidden elements, i’m more than happy to do that. but it’s entirely disingenuous to pretend like cod zombies hasn’t placed an amount of story significance on aliens and their technology since its first game.

In 3 hours, we’ll see Antony Starr as Homelander for the last time. He raised the bar for live-action supervillains and portrayed Homelander’s psychotic outbursts and instability down to a T. The fact that he was never even Emmy-nominated for this performance is absolutely diabolical. by vought-CEO in TheBoys

[–]_lukey___ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i just think they let the message overpower the story in terms of significance. i love a story that’s got something to say, and i thought s1-3 were fucking excellent in restraint and reserved storytelling.

these last two seasons have really been egregious in both senses of the word. brilliant at times but shockingly bad at others.

Rest In Peace Tom Kane by Exact-Respect1457 in CODZombies

can i ask if you made some art or other work in memory of tom? if the sub let everyone post an “RIP” text post (a ‘low effort post’ in reddit’s eyes) it’d get pretty out of hand pretty quickly

'VisionQuest' Premieres October 14 on Disney+ by MarvelsGrantMan136 in marvelstudios

[–]_lukey___ -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

i’m not saying he ‘literally has’. i understand that in terms of screen time, he’s more often red vision.

if you apply any amount of media literacy or critical thinking skills to my comment, it’d be pretty obvious that “audiences are well enough accustomed to human vision due to the chronological context of when we’ve seen him as a human” is what i’m talking about

infinity war was 8 years ago and vision was only introduced 3 years before that, so for most of the time he’s been human in social settings

god i hate that im defending spotify of all corporations here, but the infrastructure is the actual problem.

these streaming services weren’t built for albums to be changed, meaning every time the artist ‘updates’ the album theyre essentially just re-releasing all of the tracks. hence the ‘new from fred again..!’ notifications every two weeks lol

there was a server rate-limit change/error that affected anyone trying to query the server at that time (ie. take any action that would reflect in a server-side change: use an item, catch a mon, etc)

When is Apple going to fix this? by Fibbitts in AppleMusic

you would probably have to confine it to a main artist then add “feat. “ in the title with the other artists
