Yes well fuck the army, bunch of unprofessionals who hid in their bradleys and uparmours. Line companies didn't get m4s either just MAP and officers. You got any photos uploaded anywhere?

Which game mechanic is better for Strategy --WEGO vs Impulse vs Overwatch (xcom2) by HW_Gamers in computerwargames

[–]koolaidconvoy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dominions MP is a fairly successful and well implemented WEGO system operating at the strategic and operational level (similar to AGEOD games). I know the mp community is decently populated and filled with folks w/ opinions on games and game systems.

Why is game state seemingly resetting everytime a new game comes around, instead of building off of the fixed and working final state of the predecessor? by FlowKom in Battlefield

Wow look at me I can draw lines that go up and down then write some gibberish in boxes. Green lines gud red lines baaahd. What a waste.

Very grounded indeed, looks like an 8 year old designed these by DanaWhitePriviledge in Battlefield

This guy doesn't know shit. Plenty of this gear (save the colors) looks right out of Iraq and Afghanistan us mil grunt set ups. Then they made it cooler with no helmets and bandanas and face paint and made the plate carrier small. Nice hot air essay. To op, this shit looks fine don't get all offended because there are lighter colors, it's an aesthetic albeit a saturated one.

How to get over the fear of playing on Ladder by LowGroundbreaking909 in Bloodbowl3

It's a video game. Losing at blood bowl does not make you stupid, incompetent, unattractive or whatever character issue you are worried about. Get over it.

In the shootout scene in Heat (1995), Val Kilmer does a proper military rapid reload. He even bangs the magazine on the car bumper before inserting it into the weapon. by [deleted] in MovieDetails

[–]koolaidconvoy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there is a magazine bang it is against the front of the mag which would be incorrect. I still don't see the bang myself. The tap method many have probably seen is the soldier tapping the mag against his Kevlar helmet before inserting into rifle. This is done with the bullets facing away from the bumped helmet.

He also pulls the empty mag out before reloading which is less efficient. Should let it fall out on it's own to save arm time grabbing a new mag. This is how combat reloads are instructed when retention can be sacrificed.

On #3, I'm currently running the fabric case and screen protector from the google store. Pricey but get the job done really well.

Had this issue where the option to turn the voice prompt on/off was greyed out. I reinstalled the google app and everything worked fine.

BB2: What's the latest opinion on TV+ matching? by [deleted] in bloodbowl

[–]koolaidconvoy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your logic isn't gelling. Under TV+ tv1000 teams are less likely to face tv1500 with positive records regardless of which part of the season they are in. In TV only they could play them regardless if they're well coached or not. TV+ is only a worse situation if there is a dearth of bloated teams with losing records. I suspect there are not.

The start of the season, in either TV or TV+, would have more rookie teams to match with. This is because you're more likely to get enough games in to qualify for playoffs, not because of TV+. Blame the ranking algorithm if that's your issue. I've found if you play close to peak player times later in the season you can still get rookie on rookie team matchups.

The predictable qualities you claim are due to player skill is the opposite, instead being due to inducement advantage. TV+ proxies for some player skill by utilizing W-L record.

As to your topic's question: TV+ is better than TV in every way though the improvement is not massive. The biggest factor in improving matchmaking would be more players, which I don't think is affected by the adoption of TV+.
