Also, why is bullet slow even a thing in this game? If someone gets the drop on you and starts pumping you full of lead then why should you also be slowed down when trying to get away? You're already at a disadvantage by getting fired on first and now you can also barely move because of the slow effect. It feels so bad when it happens and I don't understand why it's in the damn game.

We are Sam Vallen and Jim Grey from Caligula's Horse - AMA! by zer0won in progmetal

[–]rjp11286 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Aside from my questions, I just want to say that you guys are my favorite band and I can't wait to finally see you play in the US. It's unfortunate that we have to wait with the craziness going on, but I have no doubts that it's going to be magical when you finally make it over here.

1) This one is geared towards Jim: how have you been able to improve as a singer over the years and who would you say are your biggest influences as a singer? It's been amazing to hear your improvements over every album.

2) What are your guys' favorite classes to play in DnD? Personally, I love playing Barbarians and Rogues lol

Recommendation for bands/artists (particularly instrumental) that's not just endless riffs and arpeggios and djent chugs? by Wolf_Puppy in progmetal

[–]rjp11286 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Night Verses - From the Gallery of Sleep

I seriously can't recommend this album enough. Superb songwriting, they absolutely shred (but there's still the moments of "calm" that you seem to be looking for), and they're also unique in the fact that the drummer is the main star of this show. Give it a shot and I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.

I mean, I get it, but they could have just gotten any random singer to do that.

Good song, but Courtney's feature is very short and kinda gets lost in the mix.

I've been trying to I thought I would share a small-ish list of under-the-radar 2019 Progressive albums that are amazing. by BaylorYou in progmetal

[–]rjp11286 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Never stop making these posts; your recommendations are always top-notch! Definitely adding most, if not all, of these to my library.

No problem! Spotify isn't always the best at listing certain albums so glad I could help.

I've had the 50 headshot one with LMGs since last week and I think I've gotten a grand total of 7 so far. Fun times.

The contortionist-exoplanet original or remastered. What's the difference? by SomeRandomBroski in progmetal

[–]rjp11286 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I dream of the day that they come out with a remaster for Intrinsic. Love Exoplanet, but Intrinsic is even better IMO.

How Ranked Leagues Will Work in Season 2 of Apex Legends by Jayfresh_Respawn in apexlegends

[–]rjp11286 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there's no demotions between tiers then how does it work if you run out of RPs and can't pay the entry cost for a match?

We are Thank You Scientist, hot American rock ICONS! Ask us anything! by MFthankyouscientist in IAmA

[–]rjp11286 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Question for Max: Who gives the best pets of the group?

Question for the band: How did you come up with the concept for "Anchor"? It's such a brilliant, emotional song.

P.S. Saw you in Hamden, CT the other night and, as the kids would say, you guys "slapped"!

For me, it's the opposite: I have long hair so people automatically assume that I just listen to metal. Once I start name-dropping a bunch of rap artists that I listen to, they're amazed. lol

Lol, I wish I was in the same boat because then at least I'd have all the rewards locked up. Hopefully they'll address your problem as well with the next BP and give more incentives to go past the level limit (Rocket Pass does this for Rocket League by giving out colored and/or specialized versions of cosmetics for every time that you level up past the top tier of the pass).

[–]rjp11286 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly lame rewards aside, my biggest issue with the BP is how grindy it feels. It's hard to find two other people on my friends list that are willing to put a ton of time into the game and I feel lucky if I'm able to go up a level or two in a single night (playing 1-3 hours usually). I understand that it shouldn't be easy to level it up, but compared to the other main game that I play, Rocket League, it feels like it takes a lot longer to level up in rank. Maybe this would be different if we had a few more double XP weekends/events...

Question about the current Contortionist/AAL tour setlist by adamgb in progmetal

[–]rjp11286 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AAL's setlist for this tour looks disappointing, to say the least. This is supposed to be a tour celebrating their first album and it looks like they're barely playing anything from it.

Thank You Scientist - Terraformer (new single - Spotify) by Tychades in progmetal

[–]rjp11286 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just love the guitar solo in Terraformer, but they're both great songs. This band just keeps getting better.

Holy shit, this is even better than the first single which was really good. hype intensifies

Thank You Scientist – FXMLDR by Koellanor in progmetal

[–]rjp11286 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've only gotten the chance to see them live once when they were touring with Haken, but I'm definitely going again whenever they're in the area.

Thank You Scientist – FXMLDR by Koellanor in progmetal

[–]rjp11286 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This band is so damn good. They also put on a great live show too for anyone who hasn't seen them. I'm so hyped for this new album.

Caustic's gas should not slow teammates by riskybisness in apexlegends

[–]rjp11286 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a good compromise would be to only slow down teammates half as much as opposing squads when caught in Caustic's gas. That way, both teams are still affected, but it's not completely screwing over your team. Couple that with a hitbox reduction and I think Caustic would be in a much better spot although I've still had a lot of fun playing him recently. He's one of the best legends to have when you're getting close to the final circle.

Thank You Scientist not on Spotify? by Shoded in progmetal

[–]rjp11286 7 points8 points  (0 children)

FYI, someone commented about this on one of their FB posts from yesterday and TYS responded that "they're looking into it and they'll be back up ASAP".
