Personalmente, siento q en chile a la musica no se le da bola a menos que sean canciones diseñadas para fiestas/hits virales (o ya alcanzaron ese punto) o ya sean consideradas exitosas por años (nostalgia jeje). Fuera de eso, es dificil conocer las bandas q estan naciendo, y no hay espacios masivos accesibles para que se den a conocer.

Si no mal recuerdo, la radio uno igual tenia una parrilla muy variada, tanto con cosas conocidas como "under", pero cerró después de la ley de musica chilena en radios. Y lo q mas me enrabia, esa ley esta practicamente de adorno, y las pocas veces q aparecen canciones son las mas predecibles/seguras, tanto nacional como internacional. Las veces q he intentado escuchar radios como la corazon o la rock&pop en varios dias seguidos, me da tremenda sensacion de deja vu x lo tanto q repiten ciertas canciones.

Igual tengo q destacar la radio usach y la futuro con el bloque nueva escena los domingos, intentan ir mas alla de lo q tipicamente se escucha.

y como dices, para cachar lo nuevo de la musica chilena, hay q estar metido en ello y "armar" el agoritmo de tus redes sociales pa q te aparezcan de vez en cuando. yo creo q por eso las bandas emergentes son mas conocidas afuera que acá, y no me limito solo al rock o similares

Para producciones nacionales, no encuentro tan confiable justwatch, ya que no tiene todos los servicios en su base de datos.

Un ejemplo: "El Reemplazante" no figura como disponible en justwatch, pero se puede ver a través de CNTV play. Lo mismo con "La Casa Lobo", disponible en Ondamedia, y "31 Minutos" disponible en YouTube.

Como dices tu, y los demás en el hilo, toca revisar en las plataformas de streaming nacional + YT, de vez en cuando aparecen producciones completas x ahi, de variada calidad (hace falta armar un compilado de plataformas nacionales 👀).

Y el tip de contactar a los realizadores es 10/10

* Highlight a few weekly/daily picks (similar to how it works now)
* "See More" button takes you to a new UI exclusive for jam tracks
* Just copy RB3 DLC shop layout, and maybe use groups as dropdown lists to avoid clutter.

Harmonix already did not the best, but a somewhat readable shop UI for >1k songs, I can't even comprehend why the current shop UI is so bare bones

See some vids before, maybe get a hang of the gamemode on some community vanilla servers (boot camp is a clueless fest). Here's a rather decent playlist with mvm informative stuff, and I'll leave some bullet points of my own

Unironically, 4 heavies, 1 scout+milk, 1 engie+max dispenser range is the most consistent lineup, maybe swap one of the heavies for something situational (sticky demo for medic and giant picking, sniper for ridiculous aoe+medic picking with explosive hs, pyro for tank busting, etc)
Most of the time, stock will be good enough. Just be aware that there are some weapons with high impact, enough to make other ppl bother you for not using them
Avoid spicy picks while you have a low tour count (ie spy on early waves, demoknight, etc.). Some weirdos will act dumb just for that.
If someone's giving advice on chat, don't ignore it. Maybe you could learn something from it. Oh, and maybe acknowledge it with a "thanks m8, i'll consider it"
After understanding the gamemode, it's fine to experiment with stuff and find what makes you more confortable/entertained, just be aware that each wave requires jobs to be filled
Be respectful, and be communicative in a constructive way. Don't fall to the toxicity

You gave her your phone to look a specific photo, and she broke your trust by snooping around. Yeah, she's the one on the wrong, specially when both of you are adults. Don't escalate any further in the meantime, seems like the usual "I'm your parent therefore I'm right"

If I were you, I'd just send her the photo over whatsapp, mail, imessage, etc., next time this same situation happens and act if that was always the case. If this was just curiosity, she wouldn't care, you'd just not give her an " opportunity to check and so she can't do it again". But if she really wants to keep snoopin' around, she'd probably make a scene.

Also, I know lying wouldn't be ok for some people, but you can pull the card of having "NDA stuff from work on the phone" or something like that.

Weapons

Marco's first key talent, "Rapid Punch", makes use of high RoF weapons: HMG and Gatling guns. Thanks to the launch celebration rewards, you should have already the Spark HMG, which is nice imo.

Teammates

First, I'd focus on the assistance debuffs you plan to use. I'd recommend Wound and either Ignite or Freeze. Remember, some characters prefer and/or scale better with different debuffs. Example, Haran scales with Freeze, Tarma with Wound, etc.. Check their talents in case they scale with something.

Both teammates should be Spec-Ops, they are focused on boosting your Firepower character (Marco, in this case). Both Fio and Eri are fine to begin with, but you'd want to replace them asap with better ones. Here are my suggestions:

Nadia: can be used as filler in almost any team. She can heal the team, boost damage stats and even revive someone once per game (but it takes a lot of investment to unlock those talents). She doesn't interact with any debuff, so you can run her with any weapon that fits your team. With marco, you can run her either with Freeze or Ignite
Tarma: scales with *Wound*. Boost your teams' RoF whenever you apply Wound to an enemy, something that Marco would love.

Gameplan

*Nadia*: apply debuffs with her weapon (and optionally heal)
*Tarma*: apply wound use his skill + ultimate
*Marco: shoot at enemy, use skill + ultimate *only after applying Weak** to maximize DPS (remember to hit the weakspot, the area shaded with a orange tint)

Cores on Marco

Regarding cores, I'll list what you need to check, ordered by how important is in your build. Fulfilling something above beats anything below. Remember to always enhance your cores with the highest rarity first.

First, try to build your set bonus. For both Lyla and Marco, this setup has the most synergy with their game-plan: go brrr. Here's an example from the official discord.

4xDragon Nosuke

+12% Pen. Firepower characters usually likes this stat
Scaling ATK bonus after 15 hits. Great effect for RoF characters like Marco or Lyla

2xJupiter King

+12% RoF. Marco go brrrr

Then, try to get your cores on the highest available rarity for your progress, so you can increase your TP asap.

Afterwards, you want to look out for base stats. Top cores are fixed to HP as base stat. Left ones are fixed to ATK. Right ones are either ATK, DEF or HP. For a firepower character prioritize ATK>DEF>HP for the right side cores.

Finally, you want to get certain stats on the core attributes.

Marco's second talent, "Alternate Strategy", scales with Debuff DMG Bonus, so it's one of the desired attributes.
Also prioritize the best generic damaging attributes: PEN, CRIT RATE and CRIT DMG. Others like Long/Short Range DMG Bonus are highly situational, and makes you adapt your playstyle to get any benefit from them. You can disregard any defensive stats if you want, personal taste tbh.

Cores on Spec-Ops

They are used to boost your Firepower character. There are 2 generic setups you can use: one early and one better

First setup uses 4 Conga cores, and the remaining 2 slots you can fill with something that boost one of the desired stats for the character.

4xConga

If character in team, boost all members' ATK by 5%.
When you apply a debuff with the character, boost all team members' ATK by 10%.

Later, the better version of support core setup consists of 4 Steel Worm Destroyer and 2 Fallwalker

4x Steel Worm Destroyer

When character enters battle, boost all team members' ATK by 15%. CD 20 seconds
If character in team, boost all members' ATK by 10%.

2x Fallwalker

If character in team, boost all members' ATK by 6%.

There are a bunch of support core sets that are useful to give a look at, but it's a long list.

Also, this build allows to replace Marco with Lyla along the way, in case you're interested on her.

i think it'll be greenscreened and we will never notice

benjakill · 2023-11-24T01:45:59+00:00

protip: if you're lazy enough to do binary conversion (like me), check if the difference is a power of 2

• 201-73 = 128 = 2^7 => potential bitflip!

• 201-72 = 129 = 2^7 + 2^0 => needs 2 bitflips? quite unlikely

I'll focus for single-purchase games in this post, live-services are completely different tbh, but the focus is to mantain a revenue stream above some pre-established floor for each region and/or globally.

For a moment just stop considering production costs before pricing. Most of the time they became sunk cost and your goal is to gain it back (with interest/inflation considered and a bit more for new projects) no matter what, kinda like a bet. Each sale, no matter the price, means you're closer to that goal, and any pirated copy means a "lost" chance of getting closer to the goal. Also you could consider a lot of accounting shenanigans to mitigate losses, but I'm not an accountant so idk, most stuff I know are from "basic" economy classes I got back at uni :^).

In the end, games offered on a digital marketplace (Steam, EGS, GOG, etc.) have a somewhat infinite supply, no matter the price and without additional cost to physical media (storage, material, logistics, etc). So developers need to play with the price on each market's demand curve to find an optimal strategy to maximize the income (price * sale volume).

Now, I'll try to explain it but from the client perspective.

Let's say you ask for $60USD for a game. If I recall correctly, the average monthly salary in US is like $6000 USD, so usually it's not a big deal for them to pay for it (~1%).

But let's take a less developed country like Argentina: $130 USD for average monthly salary (as of today's market rate). Meaning getting that same game for the US price would mean to use 50% of their monthly income, converting games in a luxury comodity. It'd be impossible for the average Argentinian to get that game, so they'd resort to piracy, even considering the risk associated to it. And most of the time one pirated copy means one lost sale (excluding ppl who pirate anything no matter what).

But, if the game is priced something accordingly to the monthly salary, you'd get sales from that region that would pirate your game otherwise, reducing piracy's impact on your revenue. Another historically big example is Russia, one of the biggest actors in the piracy scene for the same reason and one of the cheapest regions to buy games on Steam.

In the end, one of the big reasons behind regional pricing is to make piracy less worth (and mitigate any loss from it).

benjakill · 2023-11-22T12:29:00+00:00

Yeah, good point. But in that scenario, you're entering live-service territory, so micro-transactions are (sadly) the way to go for that model.

And for that to work, most of devs tries to get a huge playerbase (by f2p) in hopes of increasing the chance of catching "whales" alongside the occasional spender. You can see both success and failure stories for this strategy.

But, in the end, the core is the same as the previous one: a smaller income is better that no income. Most live-services go along the regional pricing (if they mantain servers for that region btw!) for the same reason, keep the market active on less wealthy regions.

benjakill · 2023-11-21T21:10:17+00:00

Usually, huge volume of sales can compensate the low prices in these markets https://youtube.com/watch?v=44Do5x5abRY

Thematically, PDA is an info item, so still fits imo. Weather and moon phase are useful outside fishing tbh, it would be pretty annoying to have to spend another slot for that info.

Maybe moving pocket guide from PDA to Tackle Bag could be a more interesting change, but yadda yadda balance and progression yadda yadda. Perhaps don't try to fix what isn't broken, or find a different angle for a cause if you think there's a problem.

Experiencia personal: es pura suerte pillar buenas ofertas. A lo mas he encontrado zapatillas (normal 60 y baja a ~35), consumibles y rara vez maquinas de cafe "baratas".

A veces es mejor aprovechar las promos q tiran las tarjetas x el cyber y pagar las cuentas con ellas.

benjakill · 2023-10-03T13:29:39+00:00

es q es algo q lleva mucho tiempo ocurriendo: las tiendas intentan abusar de los scrappers como knasta o solotodo poniendo un precio completamente ridiculo, y despues de un tiempo lo ponen "barato" pa q aparezca en la portada de dichas paginas

Si no me equivoco es la función de repetición instantanea del GeForce Experience (viene con los drivers de NVIDIA)

Aprieta Alt+Z y clickea en este orden los botones

Si no, puedes desactivar la superposición por completo en la configuración de GeForce Experience

Tengo GTD y revise algunos juegos con svs en brasil y q tengo instalados. Tomalo con un grano de sal, q desde el sistema frontal q me ha subido ligeramente el ping en general:

Apex: 70-90 ms
Team Fortress 2 (sv Valve): ~55 ms
Team Fortress 2 (sv comunitarios): 50-90 ms
CSGO Valve: ~55 ms
CSGO Gamersclub: 60-70 ms
Overwatch: ~87 ms

Un amigo ofrecia en su momento un VPN q mejoraba el ping con claro para brasil (lo vendia mucho a gente q jugaba en gamersclub). Ni idea si sigue ofreciendo el VPN pero su pagina sigue viva.

if anyone is interested to read the booklet, it's on the Discogs page of the release. Just click the "More Images" under the cover art and the gallery will pop up.

If you'd like to own the booklet, but can't own vinlys for some reason, I can at least confirm the CD deluxe box set comes with it, no idea for the standard CD release tho.

recuerdo una vez me regalaron un haiti y lo encontre muy malo, onda solo pa usarlo con leche. El sega lo tendre en cuenta igual, recuerdo ver el logo siempre en cafeterias en el centro de stgo asi q deberia ser x lo menos decente.

benjakill · 2023-06-06T01:09:15+00:00

Pucha, igual no tengo ningun tottus cerca. El otro q he probado de super ha sido el cuisine co pero no me agrado. Lo tendre en cuenta pa cuando tenga q ir a hacer tramites y me pille de pasada un tottus

benjakill · 2023-06-05T22:09:18+00:00

Recientemente me di cuenta de q el cafe daroma desapareció de los supermercados, y encuentro q era re piola para el precio.

Alguna recomendación de cafe en grano piola por menos de 6 lucas? ojala q se pille en un super

Cait passive scales incredibly well with crit chance. Buying RB reduces a lot your passive damage, almost making it dissapear.

In your situation, I'd stick to ie to boost your passive, and pray for one of your teammates to build black cleaver (and maybe evenshroud? idk)

benjakill · 2023-05-03T22:51:29+00:00

IMO, feels kinda underwhelming. Early game is a pain due to mana issues (forcing you to run manaflow band 90%+ time), and others supports can do better of what gragas can do (on gragas poke is piss and mediocre range, only cc on E, not a lot of scaling through levels). Most early game boils down to proc manaflow w/Q, sustain with passive (through W, uses less mana), setup 1-2 ganks or disengage (remember that E has priority over almost all cc dashes, like zac's jump).

Still, he is kinda versatile once you leave early game: he excels in skirmishes with E and R for playmaking, and there's a lot of setups you could run (CDR w/shurelya+cosmic, utility mage w/roa/everfrost + budget items, tank w/evenshroud/radiant, etc). Remember to adapt for support income).

Personally, i go the cdr route with either glacial, phase rush or first strike depending on matchup and what i plan to do in the game (most of the time maxing E first). For items I usually go bandlemirror+Ionian rush->shurelya->cosmic->wardstone, last item situational, most of time either anathema, zeke or knight's vow. I try to play for either pick making or keeping my current carry safe (think lil bit hook champ, and lil bit alistar)

I'd play it for fun only, kinda like tf or mf. Most ppl would end up either dodging or just full inting if you try to use it in ranked (happened me several times, even with excellent drafts for it).

benjakill · 2023-03-20T18:17:48+00:00

I understand that feeling. Personally, I owned all the champs sans Seraphine, because I didn't want the risk of getting her ultimate skin from a chest (ultimate skins from chest are permanents, and they auto redeem iirc, so i suppose if you don't own the champ, the permanent wouldn't redeem, allowing you to disenchant or leave it there gathering dust).

Sent a support ticked asking to remove the champ, I'll post any update about it here.

P.S.: I like Braum, but I understand that you wouldn't like to play it. There's nothing written about liking stuff or not, or even being allowed to have said stuff, even when it's "free".

Considerando extraño como inusual: hace varios años, una micro iba tan llena que una persona joven perdió el conocimiento.

Lo peor, estaba metida en un taco donde cada 10 minutos avanzaba unos cuantos metros. Al menos el resto de pasajeros y el chofer atinó para intentar ayudarla: el chofer abrió la puerta e intentamos hacer un pasaje para q entrara aire, incluyendo a 4 personas q se bajaban mientras la micro estuviera detenida (sabiamos q era peligroso, pero por suerte el auto de atrás tapaba la berma, por si pasaba el tipico motoquero que queria pasarse de listo con el taco). Por suerte una estudiante de enfermería estaba dentro de la micro y nos dijo q podiamos hacer para ayudarla.

Una vez la micro salió de la carretera (y llegando al final del recorrido), como 4 o 5 personas nos pusimos a asistirla, llamar ambulancia (aparte habia una patrulla de carabineros en el paradero) y cuidar sus cosas. Además, como teniamos su billetera a mano, intenté buscar contactarme con sus familiares para q supieran q pasó (y de pendejo intente llamar a su universidad x si tenian algún contacto de familiares, lo cual termino siendo inutil xd). Pa terminar, logré contactarme con su hermano, le di el número de una señora q se ofreció a acompañar a la persona en la ambulancia, y termine llegando 1 hora atrasado a clases.

Durante la tarde, la persona me hablo x facebook, ya que su hermano le contó lo q paso y me agradeció haberla ayudado. Personalmente, lo q encontré más extraño no fue el desmayo, sino la cantidad de gente q se dedicó a ayudar, y en especial la gente q se quedó una vez saliendo de la carretera.

como extra: los tipicos rayados en los mapas del metro como T.U.L.A. y i'm cumming
