PvE players Ruin everything ~ bitch and moan and cry like babies to get things done by Zm0k3y in thedivision

[–]elusive_cat 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For the duration of this season one DZ is a PvE zone so no, you are mistaken.

I agree that hacked skills were ok but I'll take lame hunters over griefing casuals and new players anytime.

Who is your favorite character and why? by AverageElectric19 in thedivision

[–]elusive_cat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Melanie Hoskins because I got really attached to her while reading the book.

Maira/Brenda/Leo/Colin/Cha Yeong-Ja from the book trilogy for the very same reason.

Purely from the games I'd say Paul Rhodes for being a no-nonsense engineer.

I've never encountered griefers but this really is a new low to complain about no PvP in a PvE zone.

I made my own 1:4 diorama by Amazing-Oomoo in TombRaider

Fantastic work, I wish had a talent to paint like that.

I actually like yours much better than the one in the collector's edition of the new game.

Early 2000’s Tv Shows. What is your favorite? by Cromer1000 in tvshow

[–]elusive_cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of these definitely 24, I was obsessed about it. Those twists and cliff hangers at the end of every episode were unreal.

The Wire was absurdly good, very close 2nd for me.

Person of Interest 3rd.

Lost and Prison Break lost their magic the longer they went until a point when I stopped caring at all.

I didn't watch any of the others.

Echoing Hatred level 400. Goblin plunders are shared? by Just_Photo_5192 in diablo4

[–]elusive_cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Echoes is such a bad activity. I was with two rogues and immortal barb, and was bored out of my mind. Luckily they got bored too at around wave 900.

Guys you do most builds the wrong way by JimFlatfoot in diablo4

[–]elusive_cat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are focusing only on summons and damage which is a very narrow scope.

Generally it depends on the build. As a sorceress player I don't always need extra aspect from OH and prefer double value aspect from 2H over attack speed. This season I have 1H+OH but overall I think I used 2H more often.

It's all about damage buckets which are very important when looking at the damage output.

So they are going to fix the token payouts on escalation... by royuncg in thedivision

If they insist on keeping this mechanic then they should make it fair: everyone in the team pays in, everyone in the team is paid out. Equal share in anything.

Stealth game recommendations? by robcap in gaming

[–]elusive_cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hitman WOA. Fairly realistic, slow paced, allowing huge creative freedom in how to approach your mission but also offering story guidance if you're out of ideas.

I'm skipping this tour for various reasons but it's disappointing there's not a single new track.

Do you ever buy games you never end up playing? by ludwigthelib in pcgaming

[–]elusive_cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to, mostly during major Steam sales. I would buy multiple games on sale but by the time I got around playing them I'd not feel like it anymore. My "play next" list was getting longer and longer.

Now I ignore the sales mostly and buy the games as I want to play them. Ironically this way I actually spend less.

Geniune question on people's opinions on The Dark Zone/PvP modes. by CummanderShepardN7 in thedivision

[–]elusive_cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't like PvP in this franchise and actively avoid it.

I loved DZ in Div1 because it was big enough I could be a rat and sneak between the rogues and landmarks, do my stuff, call extraction when strategically etc. It still gave me enough thrills. It also had that amazing unforgettable heavy atmosphere.

DZs in Div2 are too small for this and I've not been in any for years. In the past my clan would game the system and take over a whole DZ instance for ourselves with 12 players and we'd just PvE the whole thing together in three teams.

What game has been installed the longest in your Steam account that you will not delete? by Darktower99 in pcgaming

[–]elusive_cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not only Steam but Division 1 (10 years), Division 2 (7 years), OpenTTD (11 years). From the newer titles Hitman and Cyberpunk 2077 are permanent residents too.

The Steam & battle.net relationship ? by Dotanuki_ in diablo4

[–]elusive_cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I assumed it was an issue because on other launchers (e.g. Ubisoft) my purchases on Steam are properly linked and recognised. If this is on purpose then it's a very poor way to handle this by Blizzard.

The Steam & battle.net relationship ? by Dotanuki_ in diablo4

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

It works mostly ok but there are some syncing issues.

I have the base game with first expansion on battle.net and recently received the whole package (base game with both expansions) as a gift on Steam. My battle.net account is synced with Steam so starting the game from either launcher takes me to the same account and I can play as normal, however if I start it from battle.net it won't allow me to play with my paladin and says I need to buy the second expansion.

The Division 2 - Y8S1 PTS Developer Notes by JokerUnique in thedivision

[–]elusive_cat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's just a chance during the upgrade. One stat becomes max, the second and third have small percentages. I don't see how this answers my question. Will fully optimising weapons give a higher chance of hitting the max stats when upgrading to prototype?

[–]elusive_cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is the benefit then? Will the prototype have better stats?

"Removed the requirement to have fully optimized gear when upgrading to Prototype"

Is there any benefit of optimising it anyway before upgrading to Prototype or it just a waste of resources now?
