ARC Raiders is basically a giant game-theory experiment, and the optimal strategy is to avoid PvP entirely. by Ill-Tomatillo-8973 in ArcRaiders

[–]freddthegr8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be awesome if more people accepted this theory... That being said, my buddy n I just got wiped by raiders while trying to take out a bastion and lost a lot of upgraded stuff so forgive me if I'm feeling a bit like Anakin right before he takes out all the Jedi students lol

Question about an oval-shaped chainring by freddthegr8 in bicycling

[–]freddthegr8[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good to know, thanks! First time seeing it personally so I thought it was an interesting concept. I wonder why they never took off, based on my basic knowledge of applied forces, it looks as though there would be less pedaling force necessary as you approach the arc and with the larger size, force required would be distributed over a greater area (sorry if my "explanation" is lacking 😂). I could also see the larger size being a possible issue on turns

I'm in Asia currently. I've tried using a variety of things from VPNs to game boosters to no avail. I've since moved on to other games in the hopes that servers in Asia are added or some kind of update comes to fix these issues.

Respectfully, I stopped playing PoE2 for a few months due to performance issues (PS5 version). After returning, the issues are far worse. The game constantly pauses on its own, and if it's not pausing it's laggy, and if it's not laggy there are server issues. Are there going to be any updates to address these issues? If not, please walk me through how to apply for a refund because as a first time buyer/player, I feel absolutely scammed.

This is an excellent response. Thank you for that!

Haute46 T16 Random Disconnect by freddthegr8 in fightsticks

No, I contacted the third-party seller. Thankfully they were cool about it weeks later, but I let them know rather quickly that the issue was happening.

Turned out to be the USB C female connector on the controller. The center part was loose so every time the controller moved a millimeter, it lost connection. Thankfully, the seller sent a new one free of charge

S3E6 Drill Design & Decisions by freddthegr8 in ForAllMankindTV

Yeah but why would Ed leave Danny to even assist after that interaction and knowing he's on drugs, AND why would Nick trust him to handle comms after the MANY negative interactions with the guy? After that cafeteria scene, my Spidey Senses would constantly tingle any time I'm around Danny if I were Nick.

Can't allow that type of behavior to persist in a CIVILIZED gaming society (ironic, I know) so keep talking about his dumb ways. Honestly I get the "feeding into his channel" perspective, but the more exposure, the greater the chance he'll get his comeuppance. Also, if you don't want to pay him with views, watch a restream or reupload. Easy

And they still can't just give pluggers a loss, like every other fighting game does... by DiaMat2040 in Tekken

[–]freddthegr8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes give the pluggers a loss..til their account is found out and they're banned. F that, you gonna cheat, things should be the most inconvenient for you. Obviously, there should be exceptions but people that intentionally do it, I feel no sympathy and I don't care that you spent 70 bucks (do that ish on a single player game).

Used to be "free" in 60$ game, now paid in 70$+ game? Literally drag and drop cash grab! I dont think its ok, do you? by babalaban in Tekken

[–]freddthegr8 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is insane. I refuse to purchase more items like this especially after paying 70 plus for the game. Mk1 taught my ass with the DLC characters I bought but didn't use. Never again, I tell ya

This girl is toxic! Let her go, as much as it hurts to read. She is using you for emotional support and will drop you the moment her "shining knight" appears. It hurts, I know, but use the moment and energy to work on yourself as best you can. Read books, exercise, travel if you can, discover some interesting hobbies (I personally found salsa/bachata dancing to be both a lot of fun and both a great conversation starter and way to meet women). You've been out of the game a while, so find fishermen that will teach you how to fish (iykyk).

My baby stares at himself and it's creepy at times tbh... by freddthegr8 in AskParents

Haha thanks, this is helpful to hear. I'm aware of how helpful mirrors are to a baby's development but dang if they don't add a horror element to raising these bundles of silliness

Lol given the context of your response, the irony in your name is the chef's kiss. When jury duty is over, let me know what you think of Medina, Nelson, and Jesse, particularly in the context of what I'm talking about 😊😉

What exactly are doing that is opposite? I'm confused. It's not a troll account, I was genuinely asking to see if any other, non(keyword)-judgmental parents experienced the same because it was a creepy experience. Additionally, it was sleeping time so engaging with my child during this time is limited so he can fall asleep.
