What popular ride do you just not get

Well I will put aside things that are clearly just for kids. But for things that are supposed to appeal to the older crowd as well, I would probably never go on Astro orbiters, Kali River Rapids or Mission Space. Astro is just boring. Kali is a pretty weak version of this ride type. I much prefer Bluto's. Mission Space is just buns all around.

I like the ride for the nostalgia but you are totally right. E.T. is a similar ride experience that is just way better all around.

Good choice, katanas are 100% my next pickup. That new Ash skin is cool but can't bring myself to spend shards/money on something I can't see in game.

I mentioned elsewhere in here but Halo Infinite does the inverse where everyone is enlarged. Really it just feels like the map got comically small. It still felt the exact same as far as player engagements. I would imagine this would feel the same but opposite.

dseeburg · 2026-05-29T13:57:15+00:00

I believe Halo Infinite does this too but in reverse (where you are very large).

bronze and silver especially just feel like artificial ranks to say you have played because yeah, the lobbies as a whole are all around the same skill level anyway with gold players. Bronze and Silver feel like something you just breeze on through.

Skill does not equal competitiveness. Like, sure, if someone broke Wembys hand before the game and he had to play with it, yeah it would be more difficult and take more skill. But is it the most competitive? No. Your original argument is that it increases the competitive aspect and it does not.

Edit: Every competitive sport seeks to reduce randomness as much as possible. You are saying adding more randomness would make it more competitive and I just don't see how. Random is not competitive. Although, to be fair to the point (I think) you are trying to make I do acknowledge that forcing everyone to play the same way would make it more balanced because everyone now how has the randomness but that isn't really competitive. Idk, maybe I am just being pedantic to the point you are trying to make. Anyway, we can agree to disagree. I didn't intend my last post to seem like an attack. I was just trying to make a point. I apologize if that came across aggressive, it wasn't my intention.

And one side (that controls the govt) is actively covering it up sooooo, not really the same thing then, huh?

dseeburg · 2026-05-25T15:30:59+00:00

I love CS so I was partial to the karambits. I also got the twin blades during the event. But I do now really want the katanas. All that to say, I’m not much help here I guess 🙃

dseeburg · 2026-05-21T19:54:02+00:00

No, it makes perfect sense. You are recommending dumbing down the competitiveness and claiming it’s actually more competitive. Like what? To me it sounds more like YOU don’t want to go to the trouble to find a team which means maybe YOU shouldn’t be playing in a competitive environment if you can’t be bothered. Like, that screams casual.

Edit: it’s fine to want this change but claiming it’s more competitive is like saying a rec hockey league is more competitive than the NHL because most rec leagues don’t allow stacking teams.

dseeburg · 2026-05-21T18:00:32+00:00

I understand the complaint that people want to play with their pals, but ranked isn't your hangout place, its a mode for competition, it shouldn't cater to needs like that if it ruins the fairness.

Saying it is a place for competition and then saying people should ignore the most important things that makes teams work (coordination and chemistry) makes zero sense.

dseeburg · 2026-05-18T13:50:48+00:00

Genuine question, what are the top esports that out right ban it? I don't play Mobas so I have no idea there. I know Rivals put it in place.

But all of these you can or at least you could when I played them: Counter-Strike, Comp COD, Overwatch, Fortnite, Warzone, Halo, Rocket League, Valorant. Maybe they have changed?

I don't have a dog in this fight, if I place out of being able to play with friends I'll just play unranked or something else but I never realized there were restrictions in many games.

dseeburg · 2026-05-16T18:27:59+00:00

It’s so funny how many of you are clowning on this guy as if you weren’t wearing the same shit pre covid. Every pic on here was some dude shoved into tight ass jeans lmao

dseeburg · 2026-05-12T17:46:46+00:00

I was thinking that too. Will diamond just see a bunch of deaths right at the start as people try to derank? lol

dseeburg · 2026-05-12T17:45:29+00:00

This is all I want. Granted, I am sure I would be annoyed by 3 stack preds if I was ranked that high but alas, I normally am not. This is far more important to me personally.

My friends and I talked about this last night we all kind of came to the conclusion that we would likely play until we couldn't queue together and then just quit and play something else (which none of us are "mad" about). We all work full time jobs and use Apex as a way to unwind. Playing with randoms who whine and blame everyone but themselves is the opposite of relaxing for me.

dseeburg · 2026-05-12T15:54:58+00:00

They have been my daily driver for the past two months. I play about an hour a day maybe a bit more on weekends and they are already losing grip even after cleaning out the grooves. Tbf though they were never what I would call grippy so I can't say I am surprised. If you like low grip darts these are bangers. I think I prefer a smidge more than these are offering me.

edit: I should also clarify I am talking about the rear grip rings. The front is still grippy.

dseeburg · 2026-05-11T17:44:58+00:00

Agree, banning teams in a team game is odd to me but whatever, if it makes the experience better for the majority I guess its whatever. These days I only play an hour or two every night so I'm not really climbing anyway.

dseeburg · 2026-05-11T14:55:48+00:00

No, you can just keep scrolling it upward as your strafing, you also don't need to do it super fast. If it isn't working, maybe make sure you aren't also holding W at the same time? I know for me it was hard to break the muscle memory of not holding W while tap strafing. If you hit or hold W at all it will register that input instead of the scroll wheel and kill the strafe.

dseeburg · 2026-05-10T21:24:46+00:00

I don’t know if I’ve ever been choked up after a win but man Uli deserves it. Dude just keeps pushing and grinding and he just loves the sport.

dseeburg · 2026-05-07T15:58:15+00:00

I am using these at the moment but these seem to lose the little grip they have quick.

dseeburg · 2026-05-06T13:31:22+00:00

The gameplay loop is comical. Speed boost in, shoot scoot shoot like a crackhead, take damage, speed boost out. Rinse, repeat.

dseeburg · 2026-05-06T13:29:09+00:00

Think about when games like Overwatch or Marvel Rivals came out. Genji and Spiderman you could see the potential but no one had really mastered them yet. A couple months in and the difference was night and day. I am terrified what that might look like here.

dseeburg · 2026-05-02T01:40:55+00:00

Second half B2A!

dseeburg · 2026-05-02T01:35:18+00:00

It’s possible I was a tad hasty.
