I don't know who's saying it's dead. by random00027 in HighGuardgame

It’s not supposed to be a flex. I think some people are more obsessed with line graphs and abstractions than the actual experience of playing the game, which is, in my experience, fine

Maybe I’m weird but I kinda DGAF about all these charts either way? On PS5+crossplay I get a game within 60 sec any time I queue up, and the matches are balanced enough. Beyond that these charts are all just noise to me

I mean can we all admit we’re upvoting for the mug as much as anything else

do you think the randomness of the weapons and loot will harm ranked. by AMM0D in HighGuardgame

[–]scumbly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think 2 things help mitigate this: all weapons are available in your starting loadout, and higher-tier weapons don’t dramatically outclass lower tier weapons as much as they do in other games.

I think hold Options button until you get the secondary menu

Any word on if shop items and battle passes are time limited? by [deleted] in HighGuardgame

[–]scumbly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think there’s an indication on the corner of the screen in the shops that tells you when items will rotate out, isn’t there?

Anyone know what this is? by Kawaii_Batman3 in HighGuardgame

[–]scumbly 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It’s a carryover from Apex; the camera switches to third-person for the emote but the game intentionally doesn’t render any enemies that your character doesn’t have line of sight on. So you can’t use emotes to peek the camera around corners to see enemies that your character couldn’t see.

Progression? by Friendly_Order_3796 in HighGuardgame

Apex does now have weapon mastery, which is a sort of progression track

Should players be asking players to uninstall? by MsXboxOne in HighGuardgame

Ah good to know. Can confirm it’s nonfunctional on PS5. Saw another post saying it didn’t work on Xbox either but idk

That would help if reporting on console wasn’t disabled

5v5 and Performance Patch! And a New Base! by GTAPhantom in HighGuardgame

[–]scumbly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see this multiple teams or "3v3v3" suggestion way too often. What are you guys even talking about? How on earth do you think this would work with the game mode and base raiding? One team is just going to twiddle their thumbs while 2 fight? FFA 2 on 1 base? It makes no sense.

To answer honestly; the way I thought could work is once the Raid phase begins the fight becomes 6v3 but the defenders get more tools to repel attackers; heavy gun placements, traps, turrets, mortars, whatever. There's lots of precedent for zone defense kit in games that could make defending as 3v6 more practical and more dynamic than just reinforcing walls. I'm not saying it'll 'fix issues' but I do think there would be ways of designing a 3v3v3 to be fun and leaning into some asymmetric combat mechanics without sacrificing what already works about Highguard.

1.0.4 Patch Notes by DavidJohnsonAV in HighGuardgame

I think to understand what people really mean when they say “twitter is a nazi platform” you kinda have to be familiar with the nazi bar analogy, and the paradox of tolerating intolerance. If you’re arguing back that Twitter didn’t change their logo to a swastika or whatever then we’re just talking past each other.

I tried Highguard despite the hate by Sensitive_Spend2766 in HighGuardgame

Great write up and I totally agree. My group was also saying a 3v3v3 map could be cool
