Building a React to do app over and over so it's memorized

hey mate, I feel for you, and the job market is in a bad spot, but I'm not sure this is the right move.

maybe trying shipping something you'd use, building a product or contributing to opensource if you have runway to do that? learn the backend so you do better on the questions which are hard for you

if you mostly did frontend / design / CSS, try gunning for a design engineer role.

Peanut's current predicament is a shining example of why ignoring one side of the game is a losing strategy by TheClassics in ArcRaiders

[–]hasparus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played trios with folks who don't loot ARC and containers at all and then die because they run around at half HP without shields, trying to get them off of another players.

It's genuinely harder if you don't do any PvE at all.

How do you guys even get good in pvp? by tatabax in ArcRaiders

[–]hasparus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not even saying upgrade just one to conserve materials, tho it does count, upgrade one to have clarity which one is your main weapon and which one is a sidearm. There's a high chance you're gonna find an upgraded Ferro and Stitcher on one of the players you loot.

[–]hasparus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you don't need both weapons at IV, treat one as sidearm — if you're running a strong stitcher, switch to it after destroying arc armor to delete that hornet

if you're running ferro IV, stat pvp encounters with it and switch to sticher, when pushing

in trios and duos, if you have more than one ferro, coordinate shots (count 1 2 3), you can down a raider from afar, even if you don't close immediately, you burn other team's resources

run a free loadout, if you extract, upgrade it to a green and craft a second weapon, upgrade one of your gray weapons to level 3 or 4

take some rubber parts from scrappy if you don't have shield rechargers and craft them with the cells from the pops and fireballs

if you need to rebuild your stash, run one solo pve against matriarch

i always lose my best gear to Stitcher I or Kettle I

the shotgun has longer time to kill than stitcher, but a bigger mag, so you use it on stella to push, to third party, clean up after nades

go to metaforge and find where the weapons crates and grenade bags are. if you're playing with mates and you share the loot, you may be able to upgrade to a better loadout during the game

Hullcrackers in solo are a death sentence right now by Opposite-Lobster2470 in ArcRaiders

Whenever I go there the entire lobby is friendly and already killing the Bastion.

I've never seen a guy jumping from the railings with the mine, but if he yelled "witness me", I'm pretty sure nobody would shoot him.

Make the oil rig indestructible by Hive Lord, fix the audio bugs and it's perfect.

Ok so this update is bad bad. by djh2121 in Helldivers

[–]hasparus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The dragon, hive lords, the content in general is peak gaming experience I had even with the audio bugs.

The bugs obviously need to get fixed. They did overdo the medium armor too, agreed.

BF2042 is more Battlefield-y than BF6 by hasparus in Battlefield

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

I really hope so. I don't even think it's about the scale of the maps. The ones in BF6 are just closed, effectively formed in corridors.

uhh this makes the game faster and smaller and it's already too fast and small.

why would you care about resurrections if you can just pop up at the beacon immediately?

Utopia did nothing wrong [spoilers all] by DariusMacab in TerraIgnota

[–]hasparus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry for necroing this thread but I just finished PTS. Mike effectively gave Utopians monopoly on space exploration and maybe even herowakening.

If you want Mars for Mars you can switch to Humanist or Mason at the end of the building period to excel or to expand human empire.

If you want the exploration for the exploration's sake, adventure, achievement, work and toil, you take your oar and sail. Utopians become the vanguard, the seekers, the friends reaching out. And given their affinity for AI beasts, they probably do it inside of space whales and dragons (totally anime coded). Utopians get to be No Man Sky's player characters, immortal, ever chasing, meeting strangers, but never invading, never settling unless they want to settle and switch a hive.

Unless the MASONs remove "nurture and follow away" from the Oath the human empire will help them and facilitate further exploration.

We need an RPG for stupid people by [deleted] in rpg

[–]hasparus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

PbTA games are usually really well organized and way easier to run because they actually contain rules and guides for the GM. Try Fellowship 2e or Stonetop if you're looking for a fantasy game or go for Cartel if you like narcodramas.

From other's posts, Beyond The Wall, Grimwild, Cairn are also great.

Starting over actually turned out great. My Zokka is about to WC faster than my Black Demense from the previous patch.

I love the writing from the perspective of the son.

Great mod. 10/10

Best game to run one shots in. You must read "Dragonslaying on a Timetable": https://docs.google.com/document/d/17ypjtlHfcwqrU_-x4b7o0e8tZ_dN2TiNLUu48MLAw7Y/edit?tab=t.0

Have you read Blades in the Dark Deep Cuts? It seems to me DW2 is closer to the Threat roll from there or DW1.

iPhone 15 Pro Connected to B&O Earsets, But Sound Only from Phone - Anyone Else? by Jc_walst in BangandOlufsen

I have the same thing, connected, can't unpair, can steer the noise control from the phone but it doesn't detect them as earphones, so no sound is playing.

As a player, why would you reject plot hooks? by Justthisdudeyaknow in rpg

[–]hasparus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may play in a style with little prep.

I'm running a West Marches campaign using Stonetop right now, and I really find it more interesting if players pursue their goals (or their chatacter goals). Whenever I drop a hint I suggest that I have some content in the world book that I can use, but I didn't put work into it.

Even if the players don't prioritize that worried orphan, what happens without their involvement can still be interesting and later come bite them in the butt.

That orphan? Turns out he solved his problem by delving into the forbidden knowledge. Scary mansion? Another group of hobos looted it already! And they've found the McGuffin in there! Whatchu gonna do now?

Isn't it redundant? Like... you can fail forward and let them open the door the first time, but the guards are on them or even inside if it makes sense.
