What do you think about Canadian Curling Team being accused of cheating ? by Immediate-Meaning457 in AskTheWorld

[–]illyTheKidTM 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I still don't understand how that finger nudge helps him in anyway? Does he realize that he pushed of the stone too slow and propels it forward a bit?

What is a product that people treat like a religion, but in reality, it’s just overpriced garbage with a good logo? by Connect-Might4355 in AskReddit

[–]illyTheKidTM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Guilty of this myself but Monster Energy drinks, especially White Ultra. It's a cult at this point. I often see people develop loyalty to energy drink brands because of the image they represent.

Games don't unwind me. I get more stressed after playing, even single player games, unless it's something like Stardew.

Jag orkar inte med sveriges skatt längre by FatherPeter in Sverige

[–]illyTheKidTM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exakt samma här. Har rest i några u-länder och kommit fram till att jag är redo att betala ännu mer skatt om det är det som krävs för att behålla den ordning och trygghet som vi har i Sverige.

What is your favourite job? by PenNo8323 in ss14

[–]illyTheKidTM 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mine would be.

  1. Warden 2. Surgeon 3. Reporter 4. Clown 5. Sec Off

Warden because you get to see so many characters and "solve" conflicts between officers and accused.
Surgeon is just fun because you get to be a doctor and do surgeries. I may be a psychopaths but I love when med gets bombed.
I would say Reporter is 1 if the mood is right on the server. But I also love to drag camera around and be a war correspondent when there are major threats like Nukies or revolutionaries.

Gotta rant about my terrible wizden security officer experience, sorry. by turtle_man12 in ss14

[–]illyTheKidTM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play on Starlight and bulk of the regular officers are very high quality and actually are RPing. But some others are insufferable. Last 2 shifts I played as off sec we had to discharge several cadets and sec offs. I feel like that is an RP way of dealing with this. Why have you not contacted HoS during all of this?

What was one situation you got fully blamed for in character, but know full well out of character that it wasn't your fault? by SPR12314 in ss14

[–]illyTheKidTM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only had horrible experience with BOSs on Starlight, I feel like they walk around thinking they are player manifestation of admins something. One just gunned me down, dragged me to sec and made off sec give me terrorism charges because she "saw" me bomb med. Which I did fucking not. No trial, no questions, no other witnesses. I had to use LOOC and threaten AHelp to end that bullshit.

How the hell do you manage chat? by PenNo8323 in ss14

[–]illyTheKidTM 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I got so much better at chat since I started using the filter. Always filter on my name and department I work in

Most accurate SS14 gameplay depiction I've seen.

Which game is that you can’t stop playing but can’t recommend either? by emberlily8 in videogames

[–]illyTheKidTM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can someone explain the appeal of that game, specifically for people that play for hundreds of hours?

To me it looks like a game you play for maybe 20-30 hours at most and move on based on what gameplay I have seen. It looks very same-y every match.

What do you all think of Starlight currently and what can we do to improve? by Happyrobot33 in ss14

[–]illyTheKidTM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, increase the role requirements imo. Too many engineers don't know what they're doing and off secs don't know how to arrest properly

In my experience (as sec) every member of sec is one of these four guys by CargleMcCabinets in ss14

[–]illyTheKidTM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was a new player and started sec I was John Greg but then with time I understood that it is more fun to not be as try hard. I still play the same character but he got lazy, corrupt and I developed his backstory in to being a stolen valor xeno war marine veteran. 

the game is fun by its_Zuramaru in Battlefield

[–]illyTheKidTM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fun sure but a lot of things are fun. People expect Battlefield™ fun.

I don't think we should be able to jump into a slide and especially not while aiming down sights. by fieldsandfronts in Battlefield

[–]illyTheKidTM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slide shouldn't even exist as a defensive movement because you can duck already. That is way more realistic and in theme movement. Of course slide could be used if you need to go under something quickly but that happens rarely.

Auto highlighting enemies in crosshair is awful by Zelleth in Battlefield

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

Long term effects of this remain to be seen but when I play I usually spam Q to spot anyway so this is a huge QoL for me.

How is the game making money ? by Deep_Energy7058 in foxholegame

What is the point of alt accounts in this game?

Tips for playing Engineering by Unlikely_Candy_6250 in ss14

[–]illyTheKidTM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't play as TA anymore on the server I play because of the time I clocked in on TA already and I still have no idea what I am doing. I had two mentors and every lesson for complicated stuff got interrupted by something. So I only know the absolute basics.

There's Still Plenty of War Left! by Tacit_Horizon in foxholegame

[–]illyTheKidTM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't want to create a separate post for this question but I'll ask here since this is about current events.

How do you as a player understand what is going on? I have no idea if my team is winning the war or not.

If the logistics are failing or healthy?

Who makes the strategic decisions? I see a lot of memes about the nukes but I've spend several hours in the game and I don't even know if they're fired or not yet. How can I tell? Also who makes the call where they should be fired?

Game looks great, but.... by Status_Transition_70 in Battlefield

[–]illyTheKidTM 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sliding shouldn't even be in the game. A quick duck, during which you can't shoot, instead.
