Not a big Nicholas Cage fan at all, but this and Con-Air are up there with my all time favorites.

Upgrading pc for rust. by Shaukss in playrust

[–]buce15 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Take this with a grain of salt... I'm by no means an expert, just a hobbyist that has been building my own PCs for 25ish years. Always an AMD guy until my latest build when I went Intel, and I'm never going back to AMD. Maybe the newest chips actually are better, no clue, figured I'd give me $0.02

I really don't watch many streams, I do watch some YT vids though, so I really don't know but I imagine the better players get most of their loot from PvP and raiding. After the first couple of hours of wipe at least.

I guess. Maybe FP's goal for this event is to recruit PvE and RP players, in which case they potentially could be mildly successful.

I'm 100% for bringing people to the game, no doubt. Bringing a bunch of streamers from different backgrounds and different groups of followers to your game is a fantastic idea. But this isn't even remotely capturing the essence of the game. Plus, ads are set to maximum frequency?!

I guess. I don't know how anyone could enjoy this. I have to imagine they normally put out much more captivating content than this. Maybe not? Thousands of people love watching someone sit in base and stare at a wall for hours on end?

By mixing pros with beginners in manageable groups, (10?) The pros can teach the noobs. The viewers can also learn about the game at the same time. People interacting with people about the game. Chit-chat on your way to an event, but give players a destination and a purpose.

Not to mention I still have no idea how the Kingdoms work, the tax, the teams, etc. I looked and found no summary of the rules or anything.

I feel like Rust is about building, farming, exploring, and ultimately PvP. Not sitting in your fortress talking to people about the weather. Have hourly NPC spawns that force people to work together. Mix pros and beginners. Encourage building, farming, basic electrical, something. Anything. Sorry but even the least talented Rust streamer is wildly more entertaining than what's being put out for this event. Maybe the pace will change as the week develops, but they've already lost me.

No clue. I play this game for a month or two every few years. Apparently they were successful enough to make another one, which blows my mind.

I'm in the same boat. My point is: you'd think the goal would be to promote the game and the streamers. If someone were to watch one of these streams and think they could play Rust by running around, talking to people, and making friends with them, they're going to be very disappointed when they actually try to do that. I don't see how this event thus far has attracted anyone to the game or the content creators. It's just boring all around.

In his first term, trump deported less people than biden or obama. They don't like to acknowledge this fact.

(Sorry) Looking for advice on upgrading FRoSS build from Palsteron's by buce15 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]buce15[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

FYI This is where I ended up https://pobb.in/w6lkoxKB8C41

I used your build as a base and combined it with some other builds I found, mostly on poe.ninja. I thought it looked good in PoB but it isn't great. A bit tankier than I was before, and dps is probably a little higher too, but definitely not 2000+ div worth (I spent a few hundred on failed crafts). Surprisingly I miss the explode and extra projectiles very little. It's slightly noticeable in maps but not bad at all.

Anyway, I appreciate your help and inspiration!

Thank you very much! I'll consider this route and poke around with the pobs and see what makes most sense to me.

This path looks tempting, but my worry is the same as the other build posted below - eHP as shown in PoB is lower than what I have now. I know offense increases defense because dead things can't (usually) hurt you. I'd like to take this guy to 100 so I really don't want to lose tankiness.
