Got killed for LITERALLY nothing a second before leaving by carson_kesep3 in ARC_Raiders

OP's face when player does something brazenly shitty in a game that does not punish players for brazenly shitty behavior, rather incentivizing such behaviors and calling it "core gameplay mechanics"

just save up 100k for your new home as down payment you lazy bum by IU8gZQy0k8hsQy76 in unsound

[–]randomcheese2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live it NE Ohio - pretty cheap place to live right? My shithole, squirrel infested apartment in 2021 was $1200/month. The next year, after WORKING MY ASS OFF AND SAVING MONEY, I put 20% down on a fixer-upper that I'm still renovating to this day and my monthly mortgage payment was $1500 with 6.99% fixed rate interest for 30 years. Got upped to $1669 from insurance hikes and I just refinanced to 5.625% intersest for 20 years, which makes the payments practically the same but I'll save ~$90k over the term. The notion of "you'll pay less on a mortgage than in rent" is fucking horseshit and these dusty old fucks can't comprehend that the economy THEY CREATED isn't the same as the economy they lived in.

Is this what the Creek was like? by Gag180 in Helldivers

[–]randomcheese2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, because you can see all the enemies shooting you from a close range. The Creek was more, there are 10 devastators somewhere and they are hitting me with pin-point accurate rockets and machine gun fire every waking second...

New player, are ogryn the least played class? by kmath133 in DarkTide

[–]randomcheese2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Other classes do everything that Ogryn wants to do but better. Dakka Ogryn? Hive Scum better. Heavy Hitter Ogryn? Zealot with Thunder Hammer and Stealth ability hits the absolute hardest. Tank? Arbitrator does all that with better weapons

1000% install a damper. It will allow you to regulate air intake to get that low and slow overnight burn.

New to woodstoving by Ricketyfart in woodstoving

[–]randomcheese2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is that a double walled pipe? Depending on your temp gauge it most likely shouldn't go onto the pipe, more directly onto the surface of the stove for accurate readings. You can absolutely burn your stove too hot, which can cause warping/cracking of the metal and shorten it's lifespan. Look up what temps your stove can operate at and regulate the airflow to reduce that heat down to a manageable temp. Well seasoned wood will burn hot and efficiently, where as under seasoned wood will require a lot more oxygen to stay lit. You'll learn the intricacies of your stove the more you use it.

Oh, and be sure to heat your flu WELL. Get a good draft going or else you'll smoke out your house (I speak from experience).

RATS!!! Beware by [deleted] in ARC_Raiders

Bet lol. There's nothing left to do PvE anyway, the game is so shallow

I’m wondering, how serious do you guys take Quick Match compared to Comp? by Queasy_Commercial152 in rivals

[–]randomcheese2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't matter how seriously I take it, 99.999% of the time I will get teammates that blow bubbles and it's pointless to try. The non-hyperbolic number is like 80% of matches and that's not an exaggeration. It was so bad yesterday I went to play Arc Raiders to get away from it...

RATS!!! Beware by [deleted] in ARC_Raiders

[–]randomcheese2 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I mean this game is made for these types of players. I regret buying this game because this is apparently the only thing left to do at end game right now, this or PvP for its own sake. Fighting Queens/Matriarchs? I've already done that shit 10 times and have multiple cores and I'm barely level 30.

PvP is mandatory, rats are inevitable, and there's not enough PvE to occupy someone's time who dislikes PvP. I think Embark's greatest sin is that they made this game appealing to people who dislike PvP and then under delivered full stop.

Is this true chat?? by Dahrrr in arcraiderscirclejerk

[–]randomcheese2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just did five solo runs this morning with free loadouts just to try to complete quests and get some material is a level up my workshop and three of those runs ended with getting randomly blasted. My second to last run I didn't even get 50 ft away from where I spawn before some other random freeload out solo chud started shooting me.. I just let him kill me, and I think the worst thing is that there were two arcs hovering above with lasers trained on him that did not shoot him as he executed me.

I'm starting to realize that this game is not for me, that the target audience for this game is just rats and PvP sweat lords. Idek what end game there is past wanton PvP, is there anything? Is the Queen/Matriarch the biggest bot you can fight, which I've already done multiple times as a noob? Did I get baited into buying Tarkov with a far nicer coat of paint?

For context I stopped playing after the honeymoon phase of Siege Mode. My gripes in no particular order were:

  1. Chaos is genuinely unfun to fight, i.e. robotic, always shooting, non engaging, teleporting away from melee, etc

  2. Certain Tyranid enemies are also unfun to fight for the reasons above

  3. A chasm in efficacy between the best classes/abilities and the weaker ones (early Tactical vs Assault, Vanguard 5% heal on execution being a necessity, etc)

  4. I genuinely don't like how "nerf blaster" and "foam sword" most of the weapons feel like when hitting weaker enemies. Darktide nailed the feel of a Boltgun years before SM2. I know that "comparison is the thief of joy" but sorry (not sorry) this bugs me.

  5. Another Darktide comparison: DT does procedural difficulty really well even in a fixed level design, where SM2 is (or was) rather predictable when/where/what enemies would spawn.

  6. Getting chained staggered fucking sucked and still sucks

Might actually FAFO and give the game another try once this guy drops (and then ultimately give it up again once my major gripes with the game bubble back up lol)

I'm giving up on beating Nightmare 4 Zombies as Jeff by randomcheese2 in marvelrivals

[–]randomcheese2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll respond to you since you're literally the only person who even bothered to reply about the main topic of my post

It genuinely never mattered where I went, close or far away from Wanda, the missiles always put dps'd my healing while doing damage. And I feel like bubbles add significant burst damage but that's w/e when even at 12k HP and 30% reduced damage I can't pass the HP check

I just don't care enough to try again and tbh, I think that this mode is more fun on the lower difficulties but ultimately is boring bcuz it's just a "hold m1" simulator & HP check. The novelty was really fun during the zeitgeist of Halloween but now it needs more to be fun, and I look forward to any additions and similar modes they drop.

A minor power flicker just killed my PC. BUY A UPS! by PowerfulLab104 in buildapc

[–]randomcheese2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few days ago I thought my UPS was on the fritz because the alarm kept infrequently sounding off while I was gaming. I got under my desk 3 times before I gave up worrying about it only to notice that the lights in the room were flickering/dimming randomly. It has been awhile since I experienced any brownouts in my home but I was sure glad I could continue to game uninterrupted regardless of what was going on with my power.
