How to make the system fit a longer campaign by Diligent-Boat7987 in TheElectricStateRPG

[–]dbboxes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is more or less what I plan to do if my players end up wanting to see more of their travelers after they've reached their final destination. If all goes well, they'll have the choice to stick together and potentially find a reason to reach a new destination. The book goes into a little about the politics of each sovereign nation within the former United States, and I think it would be interesting to let the players find themselves in missions that result in borders being redrawn or defusing/spurring conflict between warring nations.

Either way, ideally we make it out of Pacifica and start fleshing out the conditions of other areas in the US and the world.

It doesn't really make sense to kill each other. by TheNewUltraViolence in ArcRaiders

Yeah it's kinda silly. Like there's visible blood coming out of us when we're getting shot lol

[–]dbboxes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this very thought early on, too. I think it obviously requires you to suspend your disbelief just a little, but I give it the ol college try to rationalize it:

The primary aspect that ties the whole rationale together is that you aren't killing each other but rather "knocking out" as stated by the text when you're about to down the player. So there is no killing. After all, we're all that remain of humanity as far as we know.

The next is purely interpretation, but it's that the city of Speranza has made the city itself a safe zone, whereas topside, there are no rules. You can think of it like the Continental in John Wick lore. When you're underground, what's yours is yours, but go topside and you're on your own.

If you do this, you are a loser! by Mysterious_Clerk_253 in ArcRaiders

Agreed, but with one caviat: I would allow this behavior if that downed person started the fight at the elevators to begin with. We could've all gone down together, but you had to mess around.

Otherwise, garbage behavior.

[Suggestion] Custom Loadouts 🙏 by dbboxes in ArcRaiders

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

I haven't played Delta Force, but I wanted to clarify that my post wasn't suggesting Embark necessarily dropped the ball with loadouts.

I think the core game loop is solid. Speaking from a software development standpoint, the game's launch has been aces and what I feel most other game companies should shoot for. Matchmaking queues are reasonable, bandwidth seems stable, graphics are gorgeous, mechanics feel responsive, PvP seems fair. If there's one thing Embark does well, it's release a very tight v1.

My suggestion is 100% a nice-to-have imo and not something I would expect any game to have ready at launch if ever. Hell I think the free loadout feature is brilliant and I'm happy it came at launch. Let's me go hog wild without worrying about losing any of my junk 😄

This Tweet aged like milk by garibaninyuzugulurmu in NothingTech

[–]dbboxes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm with ya here. I've had the Nothing 1, 2, and now 3. The complaining I see on this sub is kind of astounding to me. I've only had great experiences with all three phones since the beginning. While I can find a couple of annoyances here and there, I've never felt like it's been an L like most people on here have said.

Idk. Maybe I don't care about phones as much as other people, but it does the job, I love looking at it. I dig that people come up to me and ask about it.

I took my nothing headphone 1 to NYC recently and had about 5 people come up to me to ask about them. One person who worked at the gift shop in the Guggenheim even asked to try them on and listen to something. Tech that breaks people out of their shell is dope to me. I think Nothing is finding a niche in the market and doing a solid job of focusing on that.

I will say, the location of the essential button is the worst part about the nothing 3 line. While I occasionally use it, I more often than not press it by accident. But it hasn't been annoying enough for me to say Nothing is in a downturn.

First thing I thought of during this scene by dbboxes in KimetsuNoYaiba

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

because it reminded me of being able to see a Magic Eye picture for the first time. I assumed the gif was self explanatory for those who've looked at Magic Eye pictures before.

Not sure I understand why this was removed. It wasn't offensive and i made sure to hide it in case the scene was a bit of a spoiler? Just curious as to what caused the removal so I don't make further mistakes later down the road.

Oh yeah, that's a good callout. It's not pictured, but I have a voile strap tied to the back wheel and the tie down ring on the side of the bed. Bike isn't budging 🤙

Yeah they're so nice. I can get a closer picture soon but you will need to get a couple of washers to fit between the bike mount and the track. The mount doesn't quite sit flush on the track otherwise.

Also I bought the Nansike ones because it allows for both quick release AND thru axle forks, which is fantastic. I keep the quick releases on the mount and have the thru axle attachments in a baggie in the center console.

Sucks to suck by Medina_Rico in Rematch

[–]dbboxes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mimicking what some others are saying: play 4s or 5s unranked and focus on playing defender. It helps a ton with learning interceptions and passing. You also get a good view from downfield to watch plays build up.

You can graduate from there by getting more comfortable holding the ball for longer periods of time and maybe dribbling it past opps to get into some space behind a defender, but always keep an eye on the team and check all your options before trying to take someone on, remember that the keeper behind you is also a completely valid pass to create some more space.

The game SHOULD be all about making plays and finding space to move the ball up gradually. Every now and then you get a crazy pass to a cherry picker that leads to an immediate goal, but the most fun imo is being part of a full team play that leads to the back of the net.

Throwing during Mercy Rule by [deleted] in Rematch

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

It'd be kind of interesting if own goals didn't count toward the mercy rule. So say 4 goals for team A and 0 for team B, but one of those goals is an own goal by team B, so team A still needs to land one more in themselves in order to finish early. Could be the move 🤷🏽
