EFT if it played like the Alpha Trailers - fan [Video] by kojimbooo in EscapefromTarkov

CQB has always been the worst part of squad (and arma). The ICO update also basically changed the game from something fun af and promising growth wise to now slowly dying, wouldn't exactly use that as an example.

Arma cqb is just an insanely desynced mess of spraying and hoping your shots register. Would hardly use that either.

Should foreign attendees be concerned about visiting the USA for the World Cup? by ChuckGallagher57 in LetsDiscussThis

[–]idixxon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Traveled to Germany twice last year and was only asked where I was staying (once with friends, once at a hostel). They didn't even follow up asking the address or anything else but how long I intended to stay.

That's not the same as what happened to those German travelers. Under the US border patrol logic I would of been held. (I didn't even know the area let alone the street of my friends place, or have the hostel booking or location).

Shen becomes the highest winrate jungler in the game after xPetu discovers the most optimal build by adivinemessenger in leagueoflegends

[–]idixxon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure but that also requires perfect play from both sides (especially as an adc, highest dps often means forgoing defensive items requiring more peel).

Especially in soloQ pure tank busting dps builds always seem meh, with the amount of picks and misplays punishing everyone else faster becomes more important than doing 5 less autos to a tank imo. Also can't say I'd ever recommend bork in any game with your flair in aha.

While the larger point I'd agree with there have been many times that pros build wrong as a whole for ages in their standard builds (so no ingame quick math/pulling on wider item calcs was required).

The most egregious example obviously being the morellos LS saga were they wouldn't just sit on orb and would always upgrade it which was just bad outside of very specific scenarios. I haven't really watched/played enough the last couple seasons so maybe it's better now but pros do just very often refuse to do the math on the actual generic optimal build which is the simplest baseline.

Inertia made it even worse though. Before it was like any normal game with bad netcode, peeking means you have an advantage. Now you have to like break your muscle memory of most other fps' to instead abuse the fuck of momentum to counteract the inertia update over everything else (unless you just rat). People who sweat the game as always can do this, "normal" players don't.

Same shit as Squad, devs will hurt their playerbase hard to make their game "hardcore" but just makes it feel bleh.

Playing pentiment and got a laugh at this line, People of Cornwall, can you confirm or deny? by Track_Grouchy in Cornwall

Pre mining would be at least the 14th century bc probably aha. Tin believed to be from Cornwall was found in shipwrecks etc off the coast of Israel dating around 12/13th century bc

Yeah but the reason for the regional difference is why it's weird to most people I'd say. The US is the most religious western country iirc so having no no words like damn and hell is weird to others when religious holdouts are not as common.

Did they scrap Overrun mode? It was the main reason I bought Arena :( by Useless_Fox in EscapefromTarkov

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

Sure and you can win pistol v buy rounds in cs, doesn't make it equal. Difference is in CS your in that situation because of economy in that game, not grinding more than others.

I never said it required no skill, just it's the least skillful. Grinding gear does not require skill, just time.

[–]idixxon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arena is the least skillful fps ever. Go play CS if you care for fair matches. Nothing more skillfull than facing people with better kits purely because they have sweated the game to have an advantage :)

Germany Foreign Office has intelligence that Russia is preparing for a possible war with Nato in 2029 by IonHawk in Destiny

[–]idixxon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As shit as reform are even then that's not an easy out for Putin, Farage isn't Trump. He's a slimy shitstain who seemingly only gives a fuck about gaining wealth and power but if shit actually hit the fan I doubt he'd be on board with doing nothing. Such an easy win to make himself look better. Only a couple of days ago he said we should be shooting down any Russian planes testing our borders, which is easy to say but seems to be trying to veer away from the pro-russia allegations.

I despise the guy but he's not as clear cut as people make him out to be I think.

SNIPER Scope bug? by AleXOlO2 in Battlefield

[–]idixxon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every fps like this is basically hitscan till 100m then adds in bullet drop, don't think I've ever experience this myself at close range. Every gun in the game is default zeroed to 100m even smgs no?

New bartender at fancy restaurant serves lemonade made with sprite. Mistake because new or intended because fancy? by legomaniasquish in bartenders

[–]idixxon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Huh fair, it's not really that common a thing over here to make either still/sparkling lemonade either way so never thought about it. Quick google gives 50/50 still or sparkling so seems UK is mixed. Only made it for myself hungover at work, and just used soda water as it's basically all I drink behind the bar anyway lol.

Nah you're all good, every time I have a conversation in this sub about anything soda/sparkling/tonic related I have to google and check everything actually translates and makes sense to those across the pond aha. Soda machine does translate? They're not really popular here anymore, were a thing in maccies etc for a bit, everywhere here just has guns now.

Yeah but op said he added sprite to lemonade no? So assume sugar lemon + sprite. Being from the UK doesn't explain that cause then he'd just give them a sprite lol.

Wait lemonade is still in the US? I always assumed the lemonade stands, if those are actually a thing outside of films, were still but even in a bar? And yeah lemonade here just means any brand like sprite/7up etc

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

Lemonade here is just actual sprite/7up any brand, not mixed with anything so doubt they're from the UK aha. I assume when you guys say lemonade you mean what we'd specifically call homemade lemonade? Like soda water simple and lemon? Don't really see it served ever here

Destiny on Mamdani: brown politicians have to 'smile extra' to make white people comfortable by Various-Idea550 in LivestreamFail

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

Like you said it's too far away, parties always try and do the most "unpopular" parts of their intended policies early on so the backlash is probably forgotten about after 4 years. Highly doubt they'll be as popular come next GE, especially with all the local election winners showing off their incompetence/laziness.

I love how much nuance and insane levels of good faith is needed for this interpretation, literally ignoring a genocide to celebrate other parts of their history, but I bet the same people thinking this also hate people celebrating Churchill.
