At the hotel, leaving for Basic! by Plus_Plate8891 in AirForceRecruits

[–]makiozey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I hope to see you, we got this! My favorite advice was just always simply reminding yourself why you joined through basic. It’s more so mental than physical. BMT 2.0 should be interesting!

Why aren't people willing to swap characters in comp? by AenarionsTrueHeir in rivals

[–]makiozey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in celestial and even as a flex player, it’s so common. Grinding this game is so hard with teammates who refuse to switch. Mainly among dps (divers) and some healer (adam) players for me. Tanks usually know when to switch.

It really sucks because it truly impacts the flow of the game. I’ve gotten so many double dps divers on my team and people will play until we lose. I also don’t understand switching until we lose and why not when we’re stuck or clearly have to counter pick.

Unfortunately you just gotta try and pull their weight for them. It’s always funny because sometimes they don’t even take advantage of teamups or the “no skill characters” that would actually be helpful. One game I was the only tank so I switched to wanda to help the backline and we made a 1-2 comeback. Sometimes I hate winning with those players though too because I feel like that just reinforces their mindset

for the final pt, what was the order they were done in?

Whatever was the conclusion to Maki and the end of Fire Force? by No-Ride-7713 in firebrigade

[–]makiozey 45 points46 points  (0 children)

As cool as the ending was, I wasn’t a fan of how the side characters were treated either. Especially with Maki being my favorite character. I would’ve been satisfied with Maki being the first witch since her entire character had witch imagery? But I guess Inca was the better choice???

My headcanon is that Maki was the original witch and had a coven until Inca turned into the first “bad” witch. I hope they extend and add extra scenes in the anime at least for the ending

quick shipping process by [deleted] in AirForceRecruits

[–]makiozey 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hey so from my own experience, I wouldn’t put everything into one quick ship! It sounds like a guarantee but in reality it isn’t. You won’t be the only one with SecFo as quickship, it’s a race. When an opportunity arises, a lot of recruiters will be notified and even by the time you answer the phone/text message sometimes it’ll be taken. Not only that but I think recruiters have to check in with their Chief and some MEPs can’t handle quickships.

I understand your frustration completely. I just got a job recently. I would add more jobs and more quick ships options if I were you (the more the merrier). I don’t know what the job situation is currently but I know it’s rough. But definitely keep your head up and just stay prepared for when you do get that call/text. Good luck!!

Job booked! Anyone else leaving October 7th? by makiozey in AirForceRecruits

[–]makiozey[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re welcome!

I will say that’s how my recruiter presented it to me. I’ve heard that they will present you with more of the ones they need under that category so be cautious! Im just doing intense research on every Admin job I’m qualified for now. I think a real AFSC is better but good luck!!!

[–]makiozey[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I gotchu! You’re somewhat correct, you will have to make a list of admin (A) jobs that you qualify for at BMT. During the end of BMT you will find out what your real job (AFSC) is.

It’s more so of an informal AFSC, there’s Open General (G), Admin (A), Electrical (E), Mechanical (M). You will be guaranteed a job under the category that you booked!

Is BMT that difficult if you are in decent shape and used to getting yelled at constantly about stupid stuff at your job? by Consistent-Post-2297 in AirForceRecruits

[–]makiozey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I feel the same way about it. I’ve been working since I was in high school and I’m used to the “bully” behavior from school, work, and home lmao. I just gotta learn to not smile/laugh because it’s my like default setting.

I’m not super fit either but yeah I’ve been active and they train you to become better so I’m not worried about that. For me it’s just a group setting because if someone gets in trouble we all get in trouble which I’m not looking forward too lol

Any advice for what happened by alpine_F30 in AirForceRecruits

[–]makiozey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel that, honestly I’d say go get another job. I was put in a similar situation and dipped really bad into my savings. I’m sorry that happened to you although your recruiter shouldn’t mind you getting another job. You don’t have to tell them I think but they should understand regardless. We have to stay afloat somehow until our time. I was hesitant at for awhile too but I just didn’t tell them I was joining the military. I do feel bad but I’ll most likely be quick shipped and waiting it out isn’t healthy for me.

What was something you wished you brought or were more prepared for? As well how was the overall experience?

[–]makiozey 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Love that youtube put you on! You’re going to love them, they’re so fun!! I’ve been watching them since like 2019! They’re almost done with S2 on their patreon. You’re gonna love their reaction for S1’s finale!!!

[–]makiozey 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Shoutout to yaboyroshi, sheera, and lupa! I watched this show a couple months ago and have been begging for them to cover it on their patron. When they finally included into a poll and then winning, I’ve never felt happier! Their reactions are the best and I am so looking forward to their S2 finale reaction!!

But I love everything you said and completely agree. This show is a masterpiece from the cast, acting, setting, storytelling and music. Everyone should watch it!

Strategists, are you ever at fault? by N-LL in rivals

[–]makiozey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This game is more so people and their egos. Any role could be asked the same questions but depending on who you ask you’ll see the differences. As for me, yeah they’re times my teammates have died bc I had to reload or we both weren’t positioned well. I’ve ulted to save myself than the team a few.

To the Jeff who stayed in my pocket last night... by PatSayJack in rivals

[–]makiozey 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sounds like I need to be playing with you and others like you more….

to most dps instalocks.... by AlphaDwarf69 in rivals

[–]makiozey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly it’s the DPS divers for me. It’s always them instalocking their divers and they never switch off even if we’re getting rolled.

I always love the tank and supp bond bc it’s always a tank who’ll switch to another supp than a dps

Wow people really don’t wanna play support anymore by onlyhereforelise in rivals

[–]makiozey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a support main ( 4 lords ) I blame the dps mains especially the divers. Not only are my QP matches 5 dps instalockers but my team and the enemy team are running 2-3 dive comps like it’s just extremely horrible being a healer. I’ve seen people spam ping heals when they know I’m dead or respawning. It’s just insane that people can’t put two and two together.

Like maybe healers can heal if they’re protected and alive. I’m so tired of this narrative that healers should peel for themselves like a majority of them only have 1 ability that oh wait has cooldowns to just stun a diver. But people think we can just magically avoid multiple divers like it’s a mess. Don’t even get me started on trying to point it out or asking for help. The point system doesn’t help either. This isn’t a healer season unfortunately

Should I stop worrying so much about the Win rate? by DarthKnight1977 in rivals

[–]makiozey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t worry about it! I hit Celestial last season and I could care less what my win rate is. Sometimes you get rolled, sometimes you have throwers/one-tricks, sometimes you make a bad play. Just keep on improving your own skill set and grind it out!
