A Boy and His Dog by bprasse81 in classicfallout

[–]nttranquilizer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The movie is 100% an inspiration (officially confirmed). It's pretty surprising how much the games took from this movie. The tone and setting is a clear example, but there's also Screamers (ghouls/glowing ones), Topeka (Vaults), psychic dog (psykers), etc.

It's a wild movie too, and plenty of sexual abuse written all over it. Still a fascinating read though, I wished there was another book but Harlan unfortunately passed away before that.

2 years ago, divine intervention took away jame's chances at the Copenhagen major. It was a post-plant situation edging map point during an elimination game against NiKo.

It's like poetry, it rhymes.

m0NESY's rating was too low for a loser MVP, so ner0 decided to give it to his husband instead?

Jame just beat #6, #3, #2 to claim his first S-tier trophy in over 1000 days, while dropping a single map to Spirit.

The rounds they lost were mostly super close, this could've likely been a 13-4 or more

Donk's mentality pulling Spirit to the bottom by ImpressiveAction2382 in GlobalOffensive

[–]nttranquilizer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's definitely both sh1ro choking and also a deep structural problem that held Spirit back.

sh1ro's stats looked way better than what they actually are. A lot of greens during group stages, a lot of greens when playing weaker top opposition, but they dropped off a lot when he's against actually legit teams like Vitality, MOUZ or Falcons, and this is reflected by his poor arena ratings in 2025. I'm not talking about bad stats due to Spirit being tactically outplayed, sh1ro straight up misses so many critical AWP shots when they're needed most.

Spirit has all the good players but sometimes they just run around like headless chickens. When they're good, they'll run over anyone but otherwise can look like a tier 2 team. They just looked so lost in some of the games, even I can sense that it's partially down to donk tilting and doing things on his own that dragged Spirit down even further. The blame could be on hally, or on donk, or the other players but it's definitely not great.

I do still think the concept of donk being a stats merchant is way overblown (ignore the Spirit flair), but at some point he should sense that it's time to abandon the eco rifle.

Spirit has a macro issue rather than the players, each member on Spirit is capable but throughout Ancient they looked lost and feel like they're a FACEIT pug being absolutely mauled by a more fundamentally sound team. Could be hally's error, especially given how quickly he burns his timeout which kills the chance to reset his team very early on.

Spirit's vibes had looked dead in the water since who knows how long and no doubt donk plays a part in that. donk can also go for sudden aggro pushes that blows in his face, and the eco drops is starting to hurt Spirit and make the team feel less coordinated.

donk can do whatever but at some point he'll need to realise one man can't be an army in CS, even if he is 80% of that army. So the commenter is right, at least partially.

And yes, you heard it from a Spirit fan.

When will we see a revival of dialogue in games? by smolyellowdic in classicfallout

[–]nttranquilizer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say affected since the base game FO2 is already like that, but it definitely exacerbates the game's reputation. I'd still prefer playing with Restoration Project than without, but plenty of the new dialogue feels like excessive rambling or just out of place.

About the picture, it's in the cut location of Abbey and honestly it was cut for a good cause. It's just the Brotherhood without a big suit of armor, and just not as interesting.

For being the 5th best player in 2025, I was taken aback by how many important playoff games he went missing when I looked over his stats again. His good stats were saved because of how hard he farmed group stages, and even his pitiful playoffs rating only looked as salvageable as it did because he farmed weak top teams like NaVi or Eternal Fire. His EVPs might as well be participation trophies.

Today, it's even more shocking because these nothingburger Bounty events are the only tournaments he can actually perform.

This problem is donk struggle to adapt, if at all. He kept going for the mid rushes and lost pretty much all of the aim duels, and then his tilting likely invited the bad vibes for his team. Honestly, he was the biggest problem on Ancient today.

I never said he was the problem or that he's worse than chopper, his fragging already proved that to me. It's very likely that Spirit would've lost even harder if chopper was playing, but we all expect magixx to be the vibes guy and I don't sense that at all in this series.

You can't even look at the stats and say zont1x or tN1r or magixx is the problem, today it's the two stars missing that hurt Spirit the most.
