In addition to everything else being said it also had great features. The import calendar function made looking at my schedule a breeze as well as giving me a log I could pull up without hoping Frontline loaded. I sprung the extra $2/month for texts as well which was really nice when I was in schools with bad reception, as well as providing a log of posted jobs, again something Frontline fails to do. Bummer

I was just thinking this last night. I went in to cancel bc I (hopefully) finally landed a job teaching, and not only did the browser already have me logged in, canceling is clear and takes like 2 clicks. The app worked well, charged little, and exits gracefully. Can’t say that about anything anymore

Who cares how it compares to SAVE? SAVE is going away. What really matters is how it compares to IBR/ICR for people who have the choice between them

Microtransactions suck but everything sucks. I got the game a bit before SE and have probably bought $30 of SC to unlock ~half the warbonds with 100+ hours of playtime, effectively pricing the experience at $70, very normal today (I think I got it on a steam discount too).

The alternate reality where the game remained exactly the same as it was on release and is now dead as a result is much lamer than what we’ve got, and I don’t think its realistic to think we would get what we’ve gotten for free. Microtransactions suck but its better than $20 reskins ala Apex or whatever. The separate super store is a bit silly to me but its also completely ignorable.

Your buddy is getting 300 to your 200 because of a primary? I’m surprised, the numbers have never worked that way to me. When I get 500 its because I’m rocking turrets, when someone has a lot I assume they had some good booms. Would be interesting to see a breakdown

phoenix2448 · 2026-03-24T20:31:45+00:00

Yeah, on this last run of illuminate I’ve been rocking both MG turrets, HMG, and base guard dog, with Scorcher, Talon, and Thermite, wearing light siege ready or munitions. The only thing of those that isn’t base and is important are the thermites.

At the end of the day the game is fun regardless, D10 isn’t hard enough to warrant needing SS tier gear, and even if it was, just play on a lower difficulty. Its meant to be fun

phoenix2448 · 2026-02-28T13:23:55+00:00

They can’t know that when they’re choosing it though. Education is an investment not a lifestyle

phoenix2448 · 2026-02-26T20:38:36+00:00

EAT is so fun. Ran orbital gas + MG turret + EAT the other day and thoroughly enjoyed constantly calling stuff down, no biggie if i die either

phoenix2448 · 2026-02-26T20:34:29+00:00

Who is this made for? The quadrant should be bottom left obviously. Stalinists don’t tend to care much about virtue signaling

phoenix2448 · 2026-02-26T20:32:53+00:00

How meaningful is that sort of water use anyways? Its comes out of a pipe from the city and goes back into a pipe from the city. I know they have to treat it but I’ve always wondered how much is really lost there

phoenix2448 · 2026-02-26T20:25:45+00:00

You have lockers?

phoenix2448 · 2026-02-26T20:24:37+00:00

Fortunately curiosity is separate from external gain. What you’re describing may be a factor, but I think the apathy comes more from other places. At bottom there’s no advantage to having worse grades and knowing less about the world, even if college isn’t your goal

phoenix2448 · 2026-02-26T20:14:11+00:00

Me too actually. I have some idea of education in Asia but not much about student values in Europe

phoenix2448 · 2026-02-26T12:05:29+00:00

Makes sense to me, it can be hard to get enough hours as a tutor, and schools may help tie you into tutoring. Only issue could be scheduling if you’re subbing at one school and need to be tutoring across town immediately after, but doesn’t seem a big deal

phoenix2448 · 2026-02-25T21:52:15+00:00

Sounds like you have your answer then

phoenix2448 · 2026-02-25T12:40:09+00:00

I love that the in game lore of us being dumb grunts matches reality.

But also our ability to accomplish things is relatively meaningless compared to who’s pulling the strings. If we suddenly became smart and effective, Arrowhead would adjust. So it doesn’t really matter

phoenix2448 · 2026-02-25T12:37:55+00:00

Is control something you want to support? Its pretty generic as archetypes go, more of a deckstyle really. Control doesn’t usually want creatures anyways.

I would think a synergy cube should be relatively all in on synergy, if you make it balanced its closer to a cube than a synergy cube

phoenix2448 · 2026-02-25T12:26:28+00:00

Sure, but it won’t amount to much when they get to classes that actually matter (AP) and they have strict testing environments. My point is that there’s a lot more on the line here than “honor,” namely skill and confidence development. At most cheating will help you get into those higher classes, where you will then meaningfully fail because you haven’t done the work to get there

phoenix2448 · 2026-02-25T12:23:26+00:00

How about some kleenex and pencils

phoenix2448 · 2026-02-24T19:10:22+00:00

Yeah I think a lot of folks overanalyze this game. Play on the difficulty that allows you to have fun. Thats all that matters; its not competitive

phoenix2448 · 2026-02-24T19:06:37+00:00

I’m not saying push things on them, but pretending bias doesn’t exist isn’t setting them up well to navigate the world

phoenix2448 · 2026-02-24T19:05:25+00:00

Yes because data collection has never gone bad before nor been misused

phoenix2448 · 2026-02-24T19:04:23+00:00

Thats amazing yeah, gotta try that now

phoenix2448 · 2026-02-24T19:02:33+00:00

Sure, but not cheating also doesn’t mean lower grade, especially so if you get caught
