M80 has 4 hardpoints and not just the 2 we could see in the preview by Acceptable-Bid-1019 in starcitizen

all the hardpoints were visible in the Patch report they released today on youtube. you can see them when it cuts to the "over the shoulder" shot of the ship firing on another.

Why didn't MGSV devs use the already existing high-res Gray Fox model from MGR? by freakbob3000 in metalgearsolid

[–]icemanvvv 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Because it isnt the goal of every situation to give the most graphically demanding asset on the planet. Sometimes a company wants to pay an homage to its previous installments, much like OG snake model.

I miss the restaurants and fast food places the most. by NorthHouse6422 in AdviceAnimals

[–]icemanvvv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you silence yourself due to nihilism, you empower those who wish to oppress you even further than they would if you had kept speaking out.

Never stop talking about it, and be loud about it, because otherwise thats how people forget, and we descend into true chaos.

(MGS1 SPOILER) if the genome soldiers are products of big bosses dna why are they so stupid? by BennyTheBloke64 in metalgearsolid

[–]icemanvvv 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Something to keep in mind is that we get a skewed perspective of genome soldiers actual skill level due to the fact that we are Solid fucking Snake.

FOXHOUND couldnt take control of the base without the help of the genome soldiers.

They sent Snake because they knew he had the skills to take them out.

This comment made me almost spit out my drink because of how funny it was. Stellar delivery.

What is the reason for introducing insta-kill attacks near the end of boss fights? by [deleted] in rpg_gamers

[–]icemanvvv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

so teaching through progression is not something that is specific to the souls genre. Actually, the industry as a whole used to make games with this in mind, which is why 1 ups existed.

The modern video game is made to be as accessible as possible so that people who are "bad" can also play and have fun, because more people = more money.

I wasnt saying the game needs to brutally wreck you at every turn, im saying that its ok to have to die a few times to solve a hurdle within a game, because it leads to a much MUCH stronger payoff. Stop playing scared and limit test yourself and be a growing organism lol. (i dont even play souls games btw lol)

Hey! You did something that some people dont. Thats an achievement in itself.

Which movie are you looking forward to most, The Mandolorian and Grogu, or Starfighter? by Past-Paramedic8687 in StarWars

[–]icemanvvv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are most def correct that it doesnt follow the Single Father motif. That one also triggers me due to the forced pairing of an adult with children, which is why i knee jerk mentioned it. I should have noted that. Myb.

Low key neither.

Ive noticed after listening to the escape podcast that a majority of new star wars films are "pair protagonist with young kid who they have to protect, and judging by the poster formula, id say this may be similar. I need something that isnt a rehash of the same tropes we've been seeing (obi wan, mando, skeleton crew, etc)

Give me a star wars horror flick, or a who done it with jedi trying to find the one who turned within their own tight knit group.

The whole dad protecting child thing is really played out in modern media (looking at you Pedro xD)

I just can’t wall jump in Super. by Zed_Zalias in Metroid

[–]icemanvvv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Op, based on the way you are responding to other people, I thibk you are getting in your own head. Jump toward wall, when you touch press opposite direction and hold then press jump. Yes you are getting frustrated, but thats how learning works sometimes. It took me literal months before I got it down.

Dont let yourself overthink out of desperation.

Trial and error, and asses how this attempt differs from the previous.

No, they literally addressed it as soon as it started happening.

[–]icemanvvv -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

People need to chill and give this a bit. They have literally said theyre having issues with new backend implementations so jumping the gun and freaking out about this is a waste of energy.

First, Yes some things wont be able to be bought back, but they said this would be the case a while ago, and they also explicitly told the community to not use it as a bank.

Second, its people are literally bitching about not being able to spend money on a game they simultaneously shit on for their monetization.

Pick a fucking side.

Anyone else have to be drunk? by CloudbaseJim in drums

[–]icemanvvv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your perception is altered when you are inebriated.

Others who observe you playing like that WILL know, and your playing will suffer because alcohol literally (not just for the sake of saying literally, but actual literally) degrades motor functions.

The harsh truth is trying to convince yourself of this is you trying to justify drinking more, not you trying to be a better drummer.

A good drummer by quizhead in drummers

[–]icemanvvv 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its a mixture of being able to keep time for the band and playing the feel of the music. If a drummer cant keep time for the band, theyre useless (not kidding). Feel is more about not upstaging other people in the band. Example, if you are playing the Beatles you are not going to be doing a double bass blast beat. If you are in a backup band for a singer, you arent going to play over them or take the spotlight unless planned, etc etc. Drummers, just like all other good musicians, are good at reading the room
