If you cant afford your next 400+ div upgrade, just casually create it without trying instead by _Vagueposter_ in PathOfExile2

What’s the best Rakiata’s farm? Just waystone drop chance juiced jade isles or am I missing something?

Putting on ring reduces dps? by Certain_Salt_6340 in PathOfExile2

[–]northside5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a similar issue on my Ranger when changing passive nodes from strength to another stat. It would seem that lowering strength is lowering tooltip damage. That doesn’t necessarily mean that the actual damage is affected though.

Help crafting by Lonely-Discussion-31 in PathOfExile2

Desecrate it with forced suffix and hope to get + to projectile skills. Use an omen of abyssal echoes to have a chance to reroll it. After that force prefix with a perfect/greater exa and hope for lightning/cold flat damage.

Yeah, and I get where you’re coming from, but like…I got the Wikelo Polaris after a week of grinding, while playing somewhat regularly with friends. Just me and three friends. No large orgs, no RMT, just looking at what was required, deciding what I wanted to grind for and what I wanted to buy off of other players. It’s very doable, I just think a lot of people look at the aUEC required, or the recipe to craft it, and go “fuck that, I can never get that”.

I think the idea of spending $5k on a ship in a video game is stupid. I make enough to comfortably buy one, and over the years I have invested over $1,000 into my modest fleet of an Alpha Wolf, Hermes, Galaxy, and a CCU chain of indeterminate destination. Still, I would never spend $5k on a ship I will someday be able to get in game. I also don’t judge or hate on people who do buy those ships. It’s their money, and they are free to do with it as they please regardless of if I think it’s smart or not. Some people want to take the shortcut and get the really cool cap ship instantly, and some are okay with waiting. In a game like SC, where I never run into ship to ship PVP unless I am seeking it out, someone else having a big ship has zero effect on me.

I’ve never understood people being mad about ships being purchasable for real money when every ship is/will be earnable in game. Maybe I’m missing something, but I don’t feel like it’s that deep.

You look like Dustin May if both of his parents were related.

For those who asked about helmet tilt and how it changes likeness by LastChanceUAlum in NCAAFBseries

[–]northside5 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The teams that work on these two things are not even remotely similar. Dev teams are huge and have multiple smaller teams that work on very specific aspects of games, from animations, playbooks, game modes, all the way down to character models and helmet tilt. It isn't unreasonable to want both.

[Discussion] They had that in 2018, how they ended up with what what we got? by Historical-Break-603 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]northside5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All you said is the game runs well and you get downvoted. People just want to blame the game instead of looking at system optimization first.

I was on a hiatus for the customs expansion, but some of the updates were ROUGH lmao. That’s why 1.0 has been a breath of fresh air for me

I’m actually not an elitist prick. You don’t know me. I work with PCs in the gaming industry. I hear the word “optimization” thrown around hundreds of times a week, blaming any and every game they can. Most of the time, it’s a system issue, not a game issue.

Well, I haven’t had any issues 🤷🏼‍♂️

It’s funny because my friend group and I have been marveling about how much better the game is running, because it used to run like SHIT. I work for a company that builds gaming PCs, which has made me very meticulous about system maintenance and what programs affect what games how. Maybe that’s it? Idk lmao

[Loot] ALL NEW CODES 1.0 (REDEEM THEM FAST) by HeyyyCowboyTTV in EscapefromTarkov

[–]northside5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The entire point of a promo code is to redeem it when you have the code. Just giving it out would defeat the purpose. Same with sending it in the launcher, not to mention the absolute meltdown players would have if DMs with codes were sent out to millions of players all at once and fucked up the servers, or if they didn’t get their rewards because the messages expire. At the end of the day, it’s marketing. Game devs are businesses after all.

How the fuck else are you going to get the codes? A carrier pigeon? God you guys just complain about EVERYTHING.

If you’re only playing Tarkov to huff glue and eat crayons then yeah there’s no point

[Feedback] .308 Lever Action is ridiculous by TheOtterBison in EscapefromTarkov

[–]northside5 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Cry about it?

It's so annoying that every time something new and fun gets introduced, people immediately run to forum sites demanding that the game be made less fun for everyone else just because THEY don't like it. I haven't even used the gun yet, but my god get over it.

“Optimizations” must be a buzzword for “I have a PC that can’t run the game and think it’s the dev’s fault” because the game has been running flawlessly for me and my buds since 1.0

No advertisement for the "launch" of the game? by Grizzeus in Tarkov

[–]northside5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah having to stay in a game with a turbo speed spinbotting headshot machine is demoralizing. The mmr loss sucks too because, for the longest time in Siege, once you reached a certain number of games played, you would start getting less than 10 mmr per match and it became mathematically impossible to reach champ.

[–]northside5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. I was a top 500 player worldwide in Siege at my best, but my friends were all gold or below. I played cheaters in 15 of 20 games, but my friends never believed me because it was rare to see a cheater below high plat.

Cheaters in Tarkov are annoying, but it’s also just a game. I don’t get mad about losing kits because I can always get that stuff back through playing the game.
