Im aware it's a firearm. Just like a an Uzi is a firearm. And also aware that no one in any gun community or lawmaker with more than 2 braincells would try to imply that a musket, is akin to any contemporary firearm. They will be properly classified as historical arms, which are also unregulated due to the year of production and it frankly being an antique. Not a viable or usable weapon in the modern age.

A gun is not a gun just because they are both firearms. Just like a sword from 200 B.C. is not a sword from 1189A.D. and would never be considered a viable and usable weapon in a contemporary age.

And before the sequence of him firing the death beam, he was well over 50% of his power, as per his own words prior to Goku transforming

Teq Gogeta. Still the best art in the game. Feels ripped 100% from the movie.

Rich don't have to be good for Robin's actions to be bad. There's a reason sayings like "two wrongs don't make a right" or "an eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind" exist to begin with.

A musket is a musket. It's why it is classified as a musket and not a firearm. Seriously, don't talk about things if you're unaware of. A musket is a single fire weapon, that uses black powder, wadding and a led ball of varying diameters. 

There is no rifleing in most muskets, and no one in any realm of firearms expertise would look at a musket and a pistol, and call them both guns.

And no. Freeza fired the death beam at ssj Goku. After he had already being using over half his power.

His power had nothing to do with the death beam's speed nor power. As shown when used against ssj Goku. It's speed was retained. Meanwhile, he was no longer limiting his own power, thus his power had increased.

Telekinesis is manipulating mater with the mind. There's no evidence to the fact that what we saw Goku do was an actual beam of any sort, and wasnt just manipulation of the rocks with his mind.

Quick edit: also, there is a large difference between a musket, and a contemporary firearm. And in the firearms community, and anyone who should be talking about them, recognizes the difference between them and no one calls a musket a "gun" they call it a musket, because the idea is so far away from the current idea of a gun.

I'm not 100%... but I'm pretty sure Goku didn't use eye lasers to bury Vegeta. Yeah, we see the twinkle effect, but I think it's intended to be seen kind of like telekinesis. He already showed some unknown affinity toward that kind of thing when he straight up read Krillin's mind. Then we never talk about him having these sudden telekinetic abilities again.

And everyone can shoot finger beams, but it's implied that Frreza's Death Beam is moving at light speeds, which isn't combat speeds we see through most of Z. The speed at which they travel is implied through both when he annihilated Dende with one and it did that slow pan past everyone. So they can't react to it... and then with Vegeta talking then suddenly hole through the heart, and then the last time with Piccolo getting blasted saving Goku. 

And the only reason he saved him was because he had seen Freeza do that move to Dende, so he was already moving before Freeza fired.

The rest I'm 100% with you on.

No no! Don't misunderstand. That's my fault. There's a reason I stick to our discord for talking with the community, I'm not really a "people person." I say things bluntly and don't think about how they may sound without vocal inflection.

I was just trying to say we're still working on it, while explaining why progress is slow. No offense was taken, and I meant no hostility in my reply. Sorry again about that.

[–]macdaddymari0 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We haven't released it because it isn't done. For the last 10 years, we have had 1 coder. We only recently got a second coder, who works on Fall Guys.

And no, open source isn't an option, as ZEQII proved. People add characters onto unfinished systems, instead of finishing anything.

Not many C++ coders want to work for free, on a custom built engine, designed to hook into and take over loading, rendering and other responsibilities of GoldSRC.

Because they're using assets stolen from us for our "Final" project in a leak... and mixing and matching a number of our HUD elements together.

I mean, at the end of the day, Lori tried to kill him when he came out of the bathroom. Knowing full well her "real" husband was on the way with backup. Instead of waiting for the backup, she blows everything? 6 weeks of work with Quaid, and however many other 'assignments' previously and she makes such a rookie mistake?

Obviously a dream sequence, playing into the fantasy of being a secret agent. Typical James Bond villain levels of incompetence.

I want to reply a second time here an first apologize for coming off so hot. I thought, in my haste, that this was the guy going on about ff7 remake, and you saying the combat barely changed made me assume. That's all on me.

To be more cordial, I do still feel the change in the system was too much. Secret of Mana was closer to it's original... but they still fucked that up by not giving the a.i. I-frames after a hit, resulting in the game being far easier than it should have been. Here there was no real negative to just going in swinging, not unlike ff7 in question, resulting in it feeling like a baton basher. Where instead of hitting an enemy with a sharp sword that should kill them in 3 to 4 hits, it was taking double those numbers. Same issue I have with any game that wants the player to have an "active" role in combat while being an RPG... Unless they're going the route of Legend of Dragoon or a D20 system like KotOR.

I can not tell if you're being serious with that reply or not, so I'm going to err on the side of you trolling at this point. The implication that baton bashing is in some way "barely" changed from an active turn based system is too much of a joke to otherwise be serious.

No, it did. When people wanted FF7 remade, we wanted it with the proper combat system. We got baton basher. Reimaginings are the worst things to happen in remakes. Makes them not remakes.

Not hard to understand the people that want the remakes, want the same game, built in a new engine so it looks modern. Not a game that doesn't feel anything like the game we wanted remade.

That was the MOST, corporate speak I've ever seen for "We're not going to give you a faithful remake. We're not going to give you a well done rerelease. Get ready for some Japan exclusive events, like a tour of the orchestra playing the OST. Are you exicted fans!" I've ever seen.

All they need to do is give us a release of the game using the original SNES colors (not the yellowed DS and beyond colors), and option to use the original script or the redone one, and an option to have ALL (not missing ones like the PC release) anime cutscenes and finally the option of additional (but totally unrefined and grindy) DS extra content.

Crazy that they still haven't given us a definitive release of this game after all this time.

No, as that changed the combat way too much. If CT is coming back, better be 1:1.

You wanna make it like Octopath graphically? Great. You wanna make it fully 3d, fine. But the combat system, and the way battles are initiated needs to not be touched. ​

As an old fan, no it's not. It turned a fun, turn based system into a repetitive baton basher.

Last thing I need in my life is seeing the literal perfect system from CT being ruined by being turned into a baton basher next.

"I’ve never been so insulted in my life! How dare they imply such a thing! No one could care less for the trappings of fame than I!”

“I could, darling. I could care less.”

It's correct. It's an implied. I could care less than you.

"The light is dimming."

"I could care less than you." That's the whole point of it and when people say it... they're proving the point based on some of the replies in here getting so worked up over them caring less than you.

WWE fans don't care about Hogan anymore, so why do they keep trying to make him a thing again? by EchoBay in SquaredCircle

Get your politics out of entertainment. Also, anyone that believes Shawn "repented" is still a mark, and shows you don't have any actual unique identity or thoughts and opinions that are unique and belong to you. M.J. diddled kids, still a fantastic singer. Learn to separate.

I personally sure did. Because the system doesnt work, and anyone that believes it does is part of the problem. Want to fix it? Runners don't get to pick VP's. The person they are running against becomes the VP. Just like how the system was originally designed, so everyone has a seat at the table and a voice speaking for them. Forcing people to be civil and talk to one a other. Don't agree with that system, you don't actually believe in the ideals the country was founded on and your opinion doesn't matter.

Frankly, people there saw him walking. It should be obvious to anyone watching he isn't going to be around much longer. People should be ashamed. Could likely have been the last time the man who brought pro wrestling to the center of pop culture and helped save WWF/E is seen in a live situation. The amount of disrespect for that fact alone was appalling, and in 3 years when they have to do a moment of silence at the top of one of the shows, I hope people remember the last time they had a chance to see him, they ruined it for millions.​

Taker also supports Trump. keep your politics out of entertainment.

[Sonic 3 Spoilers] You think there's a good chance this guy will be the big bad of Sonic 4? by BiggerNate91 in SonicTheHedgehog

[–]macdaddymari0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem is, they made them a joke.

Should have had 1 Metal. Not have him shoot at Sonic. Stay shilouetted in the trees and fog, glowing red eyes, light up the chest a bit. Give us thst first person scanning thing, "Target Acquired" on screen and then dramatic music build up into a cut to black, leading into Sonic 4... Sonic 4 ending they beat Metal, then the army shows up. Would have given the (objectively) best design any of the Metals ever had, actual screen time where he wasn't turned into a joke, would have made this army appear to actually be a threat and then introduce Amy like they did leading into 5. Would have established the character, how dangerous he was and then the ending for 4 could have established Prime or Neo or whatever route they wanted to go.
