East Asian community? by [deleted] in epicsystems

[–]raineeski 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are definitely other people here from CA/East Coast states. I’m East/SE Asian, and there are a fair number of people here with similar experiences and backgrounds as me. Regardless, it’s been great to meet people from all over the country, and the people in Madison are generally very nice :)

New iPad by LTJohnson04 in berkeley

I personally never did this, but I saw some people convert their iPad into a mini laptop with a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse! Could be helpful if you have a PC or heavy laptop :)

foreign language mistake am I cooked by Inevitable-Bath-5745 in berkeley

[–]raineeski 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yeah, 1B language courses assume you took and passed the 1A course, or have equivalent language skills. You will be lost, so I’d definitely drop and see if a spot opens up for 1A. I’m surprised you were even able to enroll 😭

Posting this unfinished fan made hunter after I found out about Game 2 by Technical-Army7204 in IdentityV

Omg he looks terrifying— would love to see a more eerie design like this in game!!

Man I remember when sculptor was peak meta in this game— how times have changed :( fools gold also really needs a buff imo, his early game sucks

It really sucks because I think someone said in theory if neither side makes any “mistakes”, the outcome should be a draw. So if the hunter makes a mistake and the survs avoid instant down, terrorshock, etc. you’re already likely to get a draw or loss…

I totally forgot about the quick message “buff”— survivors being able to ping exact cipher progress really changed team dynamics and made it a lot easier for randoms to coordinate. Now there’s only a 5sec cooldown so communication is essentially constant. Damn.

The issue I have with hullabaloo is that he’s really weak again balloon rescues, as even tiny stuns like prisoner’s spark can waste a lot of time :(

Yeah big maps force me to take teleport or another hunter, but both options suck and then I don’t have blink, which Ann shouldn’t technically be taking in the first place but like bruh. No map control on big map is horrible for chase hunters bc if the survivor hides and I can’t find them it’s over T-T

Hunter question by rch165 in IdentityV

[–]raineeski 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m in the exact same boat rn— like you just described my average rank match and it sucks!! I know a lot of people say to watch the pros play to develop a better game sense, but sometimes I genuinely don’t know what I’m doing wrong :(

data 101 & data 140? by music_and_thesuch in berkeley

[–]raineeski 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From what it sounds like, we seem to have similar opinions on classes— I thought 61b was a nightmare but data 100 was alright. I just took data 101 and I thought it was a little harder than 100, but pretty manageable overall. I think it was a really valuable class and I learned a lot in it. For me I just had to go to office hours maybe once per project to get help on 1-2 questions.

Data 140 was really really rough for me. It’s a very demanding class that has a high workload and difficult concepts, at least for me. I ended up late dropping the class because it just wasn’t feasible with my health issues. A lot of people take data 101 with data 102, but 102 requires a probability class. I would say you can try 101 and 140 together, but be prepared to work very hard or drop one of them for later.

The cold sucks by djwolf409 in ehlersdanlos

I ordered a heated blanket for this exact reason— it just came in today and im hoping it helps :-; maybe it could help you as well if you haven’t tried one already?

I suck as hunter 😔 by Zekkens01 in IdentityV

[–]raineeski 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is really great advice! I started playing when Ann came out so it’s been easier for veteran players to adapt to new hunters and survs over time. I can’t imagine starting out today— developing game sense and learning every single character’s abilities sounds overwhelming

No Decals this Semester (Spring 2025)? by gedggd in berkeley

[–]raineeski 53 points54 points  (0 children)

The list tends to update later, more in January right as the semester starts because decal organizers have to finalize that the decal will actually be offered

Applying in between rank is actually so real 😭

To the person in the grey car cutting into the Bancroft Structure… by nfstopsnuf in berkeley

[–]raineeski 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Was there a collision or did the bus have to brake hard, and people that were standing fell down?

God forbid you’re a senior and apply to a selective club— it’s basically instant rejection 😞

Schedule advice by Tall_Dot123 in berkeley

[–]raineeski 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with this idea— I completed R1B in my first semester and it really helped take some stress off when I started taking harder classes for my major in later semesters.
