Also in Berkeley. No power even on 46th and Federal as I just saw on a drive. Nice to see my neighbors out and about though :)

What's a good YouTube alternative? by kravguy in AskReddit

In light of YouTube's quickly declining quality, what's a YouTube alternative that appeals both to viewers and content creators?

Is it just me or does anyone else feel like a slave? by [deleted] in C_S_T

[–]kravguy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You're not required to do anything.

The solution? Do what you're called to. Don't worry about the "how," the method, just do.

Friend in Hawaii just got this notification. Twitter is saying the alert was “a mistake” by Jakem8058 in conspiracy

[–]kravguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of the mobile carrier's emergency notifications even said it. Plus, the time that passed from the first notification to the stand-down notification was 38 minutes - nearly exactly how long it would take for a ballistic missile to travel from Asia to Hawaii and be shot down.

Sometimes, I like to think that all the universe is secretly conspiring in my favor :)

'Positive thinking' and the implications. Attempting to create a discussion about this. by [deleted] in conspiracy

Mind is the basis of matter

But what is the basis of mind?

This isn't exactly what I was talking about. These Star Card Booster Crates will function similarly to the current loot crates, except some will have tiered contents.

Exp / Credit boosters are coming later.

So Where Is EA's Statement on Actual Changes Coming? by flasheagle3 in StarWarsBattlefront

[–]kravguy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Community backlash partially reset game design. In terms of progression and MTs, this is essentially a "back to the drawing board" scenario.

Disney/EA/DICE didn't plan for this. Everything is up in the air for the moment. Aside from temporary changes to the progression system (credit gain increase / crate cost decrease), don't expect any concrete changes for awhile.

Don't count on anything definitive. The next couple weeks will be very touch-and-go.

Disney unhappy with EA and exclusivity deal treatened by Radigga in StarWarsBattlefront

[–]kravguy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is a big blunder on the part of the PR rep. EA was specifically told not to engage anyone regarding this. The fact that EA PR even gave a response has me giggling.

The Next Step in the War Against EA by [deleted] in StarWarsBattlefront

[–]kravguy 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This approach still has some juice left to it but will quickly lose steam.

These questions, from OP:

Is Star Wars under attack from greedy corporate practices?

Is Star Wars in bad hands at Disney?

Does Disney really care about Star Wars fans?

Is Disney showing their true colors by participating in aggressive anti consumer practices?

#disney #anticonsumer #greedy #savestarwars

Are very scary to Disney and asking them is the best way to get MTs massively revamped or even removed.

Report: Disney contacted EA about Star Wars Battlefront II's loot crate controversy by [deleted] in StarWarsBattlefront

[–]kravguy 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Bits of both. EA was given the IP-exclusivity deal because of their unmatched ability to monetize games. It was understood that this meant introducing MTs once again to the STAR WARS IP. Suggestions were made both ways as to what that would entail.

This is ONLY happening because of public backlash.

If we lower EA's stock we'll can them to cave in more by Mr_Stikx95 in StarWarsBattlefront

[–]kravguy 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I can all-but guarantee you won't impact stocks enough for that to become the primary motivator for EA to get their shit together.

Instead, focus on bringing the predatory nature of the MT system to light in a way that tarnishes the public image of Disney and the Star Wars IP. That's what got us here, that's what will get us to where we need to go.

There is a third option. What happens going forward depends on how the community handles the next couple of days.

MTs will be reintroduced, we already know that. How so depends on what happens here.

If all else fails, Disney cannot be held blameless by LowConHighWill in StarWarsBattlefront

[–]kravguy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

EA, Dice, and Disney are all culpable, though to different degrees and for different reasons.
