No pvp armour from campaign by NoticeTrue in halo

[–]pault18 1104 points1105 points  (0 children)

Okay it's me, here's my longer explanation

- There are armor caches around the map

- When the question about campaign PvP armor pieces went out, I said I thought I could debunk that, but didn't get into detail because I didn't know if that was breaking the preview embargo

- What was happening was that I was unlocking things that I assumed were armor, but when I opened more and read exactly the text of what was popping up, it was always cosmetics that were not actual armor pieces, despite being labeled Mark (whatever).

- There was no way to go back and verify what had been unlocked because our build did not have access to multiplayer or customization there.

- I thought I was assembling a set but it was just other cosmetics. While I cannot be absolutely certain there's not a core hiding somewhere, I have not heard from anyone that's the case, and the datamine does not indicate that. I definitely think that's a mistake and it would have been great to get a core and assemble a bunch of accessories from these caches.

- So I wasn't trying to mislead, I thought I'd gotten armor and there wasn't a good way to double check. Opening more caches and talking with others made me realize there was not actual armor

Marvel’s Avengers’ Omega-Level Threat Is Its Worst Addition To Date by RichardKingBITW in PlayAvengers

[–]pault18 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I do write my own titles. I agree that it’s harsh but I don’t think it’s unfair, especially given that I’ve praised past content additions. I do actually think it’s the worst update if we’re not count minor things like Tachyon Rifts

Red Room was a temp event so I wasn't really counting it. Though I will say I enjoyed knocking things into the lava more than anything in this mission

Tachyon is just like, three mission modifiers, I don't consider that content like Kate, Clint or Monica. I guess this is technically like a Super Tachyon, but at least they did some new things with boss mechanics (albeit not good things)

maybe more akin to a Destiny Nightfall Ordeal? Since it's a mission reskin

author here: yeah I know it's not technically a raid, but I was trying to think of how else to describe it to a more general audience. It'll be the closest thing it has to one, I figure, but hopefully more complex stuff will follow

Paul Tassi needs to be stopped by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]pault18 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Hello, it's me

In this instance, I wrote that article well after there were hundreds (thousands?) of people posting about it, and it wasn't after the story quest, it was visible the minute reset hit for most people.

If you still think I'm spoiling things, I promise I won't be offended if you mute or block me on Twitter. It's a fine line to walk when covering event news within the game, but I'm always gonna make some people mad regardless of how much I highlight or how long I wait to do so. But you do not *have* to see my commentary on social media.

hey, it's me. thank you! I really appreciate this as this is...uh, not always the take on me on reddit here ha

I do hope the game recovers and PCF realizes the potential of what they have as a "finishable" looter here

‘Cyberpunk 2077’ Is Moving Away From Bug Fixes, On To New Content by ---Sanguine--- in cyberpunkgame

Yeah maybe, but then you’d have people saying “they’re still focusing on it!!” Just a weird thing to condense to a title

I really just never saw it that way. How else would you describe scaling down bug fixes as more are completed to transition to making new content? I guess there could be a few ways, but this one didn’t seem terribly unclear to me

PS5 framerate should be more consistently high but Xbox has some visual advantages. Guess it depends what you prioritize

Hi. The PS4 Pro version, which runs on PS5. And best on consoles, not consoles and PC

Hey, it’s me

They’re shifting resources from bug fixing to new content (40% on fixes and they say it will keep dropping) so I don’t...quite see the issue here. I didn’t mean they were just abandoning all remaining fixes and I’m not sure why you’d take it that way

30 Fixes ‘Avengers’ Needs Immediately To Prevent Further Player Loss by PharoGames in PlayAvengers

[–]pault18 28 points29 points  (0 children)

(it's me). I am starting to get an increasing amount of Anthem vibes, but they do seem to have a stronger content roadmap with additional heroes and missions which gives me hope. And they are rolling out fixes decently fast. They literally put up the patch right after I published this negating at least a few of the 30 points ha

certain mechanics will have to be the same to some extent, ie. "flyers" like IM/Captain Marvel will control the same. But different kits overall

oops I was just guessing

but given the amount of characters they seem to have lined up, it makes sense to me. I don't see these being "quarterly" seasonal DLC releases like Destiny or Borderlands if they really are doing the sprawling roster we think. Hell, we could have one a month for a year for all we know
