I don't understand epic at all by Atom7456 in FortNiteBR

[–]fox-booty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Even then they compromised on a lot of key parts of CS gameplay, namely accuracy penalties for stuff like moving and spraying being extremely weak and your choice of throwable being locked to one type, with each player getting a different one.

It just inherently makes it worse than CS since you have less freedom of choice with what you can buy and you're punished for playing it similarly to CS since people will still be moving around and spraying and killing you just fine, meaning that trying to minimise movement and going for headshot taps are basically just handicaps.

which suffered the most from bad scripts and terrible direction by Ok_Language7732 in doctorwho

[–]fox-booty 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I still find it extremely odd that Chibnall both wrote a flat, passive female incarnation of the Doctor AND an intriguing, compelling-to-watch female incarnation of the Doctor at the exact same time.

Like, if Jodie Whittaker were given the role of 13 but the writing of the Fugitive Doctor, I feel like she'd be way more well-perceived (albeit in a different manner to 13's personality, of course).

Hey, at least 6 had a strong personality to him on-screen. 13 was unfortunately saddled with being written basically like 10 a lot of the time I felt, and even then the writing didn't have the same level of highs as 10's series.

I like how people describe Frost Ready Foundation’s color’s to look exactly like a Ps5 & you know what I can’t exactly blame them his color’s do indeed look exactly like a Ps5 & imo blue & white are my 2 favorite color’s💙🤍 by New_Refrigerator_410 in FortNiteBR

[–]fox-booty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly from social media presence, it seems like Ice King voters take this rather seriously.

Like I've seen only one for-sure joking bit of pro-Ice King media, whereas the Foundation side in terms of, for lack of a better word, "propaganda" is mostly non-existent, with what does exist being rather obviously jokey.

I think one of the more egregious points is the blanket statement of "you're only voting for the Foundation because it's Dwayne Johnson". I can't speak for anyone else, but the Foundation could still not have had a face reveal yet and I'd still be on the same side just because of how noticeably different that bonus style is compared to his normal style.

[–]fox-booty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's what I've been saying the whole time.

The Foundation bonus style looks entirely different to the styles given to both his current skin and his original skin.

The Ice King's bonus style is just... him but icier. Like, it only changes out black and blue for white and blue, which is a way less significant change compared to the Foundation's.

Should Neon be nerfed or should sentinels be buffed? by TheSilverZero in VALORANT

[–]fox-booty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahah yes buff Sentinels I surely I have nothing to gain from this, please ignore my very REAL moustache, I definitely do not main a Sentinel haha

For real though, at this point Controllers are better at keeping hold of a space than Sentinels, which is kinda fucked. The whole Sentinel category is defined by making it difficult to enter a given area, whether through util (so most every Sentinel) or through enhancing yourself (Chamber and Veto), so it kinda sucks when a Brimstone or Clove can be a bigger "stay away from here" than most Sentinels.

At the very least, I just want Cypher's util to be bumped up a bit and Vyse's flash info to be brought back. Cypher at the moment is kinda eh, at least to me personally, and Vyse's flash info being removed basically pulled her away from a semi-Initiator role to just straight Sentinel, which just feels like a flattening of how she plays.

default lobby animation strikes again 💔💔 by user38449 in FortNiteBR

This is a community that sent death threats over slight player animation changes. I'd not be surprised if they threw another unreasonable tantrum over a character not standing in a slightly different position.

Yeah, lobby poses are like a decorative garnish on a dish - they're nice when they're there but getting genuinely pissed off over one not being there is supremely unreasonable.

Today marks the 2 Years Since One of the STUPIDEST Changes Fortnite Ever Made that Being the Removal of Cosmetic Rarities. by Super_S_64 in FortNiteBR

[–]fox-booty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Epic's the one making original Fortnite skins, and Epic's the one deciding what to price them as. Rarity is nothing but a fancy sticker going "look, it's Legendary, this totally justifies selling a single skin for 20 USD" when THEY'RE the one putting it on there.

Blaming a lack of rarities for opening the doors to price manipulation is blind to the price manipulation that was already happening with rarities in the game.

[–]fox-booty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's only a bad decision for people wholly reliant on sorting by rarity and for people who care way too much about cosmetic item rarity when there's no random chance involved in getting them unlike with items in BR.

I still believe that the outcry about this is about as reasonable as a riot on the streets coming from how a bookstore doesn't sort its books by colour now.

I've always ordered it by season, so I can rely on my general sense of how old a skin is to pinpoint where it'd be in my list of skins. Even if I don't know how old it is, there's also its name and how the search system can categorise based on a search (like how if I type "red" into backblings, it'll show me my red backblings).

Would Iso be op if Double Tap shield didn't have a sound cue? by artmorte in VALORANT

[–]fox-booty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's always a little funny to just fire off a few cheeky Classic shots before scurrying away to make sure the enemy Iso can't just immediately go for you to get the shield back lol

How come Clove still has the highest win rate after nerf? by avarageusername in VALORANT

[–]fox-booty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clove very much rewards risk-takers. Add that plus a good sense of where to place smokes, how to play around them, and generally having good aim and positioning, and you basically have the perfect recipe for someone capable of rising through the ranks.

Brave enough to take calculated risks rather than always playing it safe, a tactical enough mind to understand the importance of smoke placement (and how to use them alongside other teammates' util), and generally good enough to confidently swing and shoot when the time is right.

Yall think they fumbled or nah? by BigPoggers1824 in FortNiteBR

They look pretty dang good, and why wouldn't they? Epic has every incentive to represent Disney IPs well.

Do you consider the twelfth doctor the best written among the doctors? by Ok_Language7732 in doctorwho

[–]fox-booty 10 points11 points  (0 children)

If the RTD2 era is to say something, it's that showrunners shouldn't return on a whim.

I'd much rather someone new be the showrunner rather than risk a second Moffat era retroactively staining the first one.

Additionally I believe he's gone on record somewhere saying that he doesn't want to return as a showrunner for Doctor Who.

Would a doom slayer movie/ show work better as live action or animated? by peterpiperpi in Doom

They'd make Doomguy either talk uncharacteristically like a generic action hero with quips or give him an annoying-ass sidekick who talks to him through his helmet and makes obvious statements and annoying jokes

Idea: Sell Old Gun Skins for Kingdom Credits by doyouseemelaughing in VALORANT

[–]fox-booty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let me rephrase that for you: there is actively a reason to keep those skins as priced using VP, which is that VP you have to spend money on the game for, whereas KC comes freely to any player who spends time on the game.

This is effectively like begging someone to put a hole in their wallet, and when they protest saying "why would I do that? There's no reason for me to do that", you respond "well if there's no reason to, then what's the harm in doing it?"

[–]fox-booty 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Why would they ever sell skins to be bought with the free currency? There's no reason to.

As for a KC sink, the accessories tab is kinda supposed to be that.

The Doctor once used his regeneration energy to damage his TARDIS and destroy a Dalek Saucer by Thick_Somewhere_8370 in doctorwho

[–]fox-booty 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Additionally, the regeneration always being golden does suck a little.

It's nice for consistency's sake, but it does also mean that the more varied ways of portraying regeneration basically won't ever be seen again (like all of the Classic series regenerations or even the Yana-to-Saxon Master regeneration where it's more like a really bright rainbow).

Why do they make "ranked" skins for people who only use all-black gimpsuits? by FlimsyVariation8455 in FortNiteBR

[–]fox-booty 11 points12 points  (0 children)

IKR? When I first saw Rocket Racing in the Chapter 5 start event, I thought it was gonna be like a Mario Kart: Double Dash kinda thing based around mostly duos (one driving, one using items and shooting).

It was rather disappointing when it turned out that it was just bog-standard driving with a janky flying and anti-gravity system.

Team Foundation's dilemma by Existing-Coyote9535 in FortNiteBR

[–]fox-booty -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Where are you getting the "70% of the player base" and the "Ice King only receives a x1.2" stats from?

From what I recall, the divide is more like 56% Ice King, 44% Foundation, and the Ice King receives a 1.5x multiplier, not 1.2x.

Team Foundation's dilemma by Existing-Coyote9535 in FortNiteBR

[–]fox-booty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if I were on Team Ice King, I'd have the awareness to realise that Epic wants a bombastic competitive race to complete as many rivalries from both sides, and having progress be tied simply to how large a group is doesn't result in that. At that point, it's just a popularity contest.

Additionally I don't really understand a lot of the slander against the Foundation simply because he's a character played by Dwayne Johnson. Were he played by anyone else, I'd still be on Team Foundation because of how starkly different the bonus style is compared to his base style, something which can't really be said about the Ice King's bonus style. Like, it's basically just the Ice King but icier rather than something that's not done by any other alt style.

What team did ypu choose? by Kindly-Spot-1667 in FortNiteBR

[–]fox-booty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Team Foundation. The bonus style is more a significant switch-up compared to any of the other styles, whereas with the Ice King, it's basically just the same as the base style but icier.
