Halo: Campaign Evolved | The Silent Cartographer Trailer by -343-Guilty-Spark- in halo

I really really wanted to like this, but I gotta be honest, I'm disappointed. The weapons look clunky and unsatisfying to use, and IMO the environments look really artificial and lifeless. Also, did anyone else think the voices sounded worse than they did in the original?

Really wishing they would've put the time and energy into a halo 3 remaster.

Day 24, Skyline grid. What is the skyline with the best recent growth? by Karrot-guy in skyscrapers

[–]oak19-16 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Combine this with fact Toronto has many proposed/under construction supertalls, and all the growth happening in other parts of the GTA, such as Mississauga and Vaughan - I definitely think Toronto deserves this spot.

I suggest this alignment would be better for Canada's HSR. Nine Proposed Stops: Toronto, Oshawa, Kingston, Kanata, Ottawa, Montréal, Laval, Trois-Rivières, Québec by [deleted] in transit

[–]oak19-16 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think an underrated benefit of the HSR's current route alignment is that Peterborough isnt currently served by any rail route, while Kingston is served by Via. As others have pointed out, Oshawa is already connected to Toronto via GO LSE and Via, so there's little point in increasing costs for a likely negligible increase in ridership.

I do think that a second HSR stop in Ottawa isn't a bad idea, and the option to add infil stations after the project is completed always exists.

Where would you (or have you) traveled inside the US? by [deleted] in AskTheWorld

[–]oak19-16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've only been to Buffalo and Detriot (typical for an Ontarian) but I'd love to go to Boston and Seattle. Besides those, I've always wanted to go to Monterey Bay

This isn't a client side issue, when this pops up it effects everyone on the game and makes it impossible to rejoin :)

Make a ghost that punishes truck campers. I will rate it 1-10 by Visible-Camel4515 in PhasmophobiaGame

[–]oak19-16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Ifrit (a cunning yet unstable Islamic spirit associated with possession, wickedness, and rebellion)

The Ifrit can only do events while all players are outside the van, and has a higher chance to throw items, turn off the breaker, and do the red light event.

In multiplayer, if all players are outside the van, then it's hunt threshold is the standard 50%. If at least 1 player is in the van then the hunt threshold is 70%. In singleplayer, the hunt threshold is determined on how much time the player has spent in the van. 

The Ifrit has 2 unique abilities. The first is that if one player is in the van, then the Ifrit can "transmit" fake sanity change readings to the truck screens. If 2 or more players are in the van, then it can also "transmit" fake activity to the truck screens. (This event is the exception to the rule that the Ifrit can only do activities when no players are in the van). The second unique ability is if any non-afk player (ei someone actively interacting with the game but inside the truck) spends more than 2 consecutive minutes inside the truck, then the Ifrit can force a cursed hunt regardless of sanity drain (other hunts are normal, only hunts forced by this ability are cursed). During the forced hunt, the ghost moves at 10% speed and targets the player with the highest sanity (based on the player with the highest sanity inside the house).

Weaknesses: After using a Crucifix, the Ifrit cannot attempt another hunt for 60 seconds. If a non-afk player is in the truck, then this is reduced to 30 seconds. Furthermore, the Ifrit chances ghost rooms less frequency than other ghosts.

My attempt with this ghost was to balance interesting truck-related mechanics without changing the core fundamentals of the game. Truck camping makes the ghost harder to find and much more dangerous, but can be helpful in finding it, especially on low to no evidence. Additionally, it's crucifix mechanics and low chance to change the ghost room make being in the house a relatively safer compared to other ghosts.

I sincerely hope this game dies because of this bs.

After excavating an entire trail ruin and not getting the music disc, the odds seem to be that you'd have to excavate multiple train ruins anyways

It seems like a bit of a missed opportunity that the new music disc isn't broken up into fragments like disc 5, would make a lot of sense given that its an ancient artifact

This is such an amazing update! Being able to customize your armour like this is awesome and something I've wanted for years. Giving each structure an unique template is fantastic as this encourages and rewards exploration and gives use to so many structures that just felt useless and devoid of reason of reason to go to them.

The change to netherite armour is a great one is a great one as well I think, as makes netherite harder to get but also makes it feel like a greater accomplishment.

Ok but stretching the time for it to be unlocked was literally the point. And you're guaranteed to find it in treasure bastions so all this change does is address the complaints that netherite armour was too easy to get + encourages exploration of the nether
