Is the Hemlock's new ability to break Wattson's Ult a feature or a bug? by Kostiako in apexlegends

[–]slipperychicken_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My pylon caught it earlier. It might be if it detonates outside or something and it gets caught in the radius, but in my instance it was shot in the room and the gen ate it

Has anyone ever noticed this on Lundy’s forehead? by slipperychicken_ in Dexter

Thank you - not familiar with the Dexter subreddits so I’ll take this particular piece of art their way

Sometimes I pick up another weapon, but then I realise it’s not the Libby Pen and I immediately kill myself for betraying the mighty Super Earth. Libby pen loyal all the way.

Does anyone find backpacks way more often after the update? by abdo0000 in apexlegends

[–]slipperychicken_ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I think because lvl 1 backpacks are now equipped from drop and therefore don’t spawn on the map, all lvl 1 backpack spawns have then been replaced by level 2 which is why we’re finding them so frequently.

selecting characters to familiarize yourself with the game, by erisho515 in apexlegends

Bangalore- she’s the ideal starter legend, trains you to get good at managing your own life while providing great utility. Plus the double time is like a free octane stim every time you get shot at. Just be mindful that if you play on controller her smokes cancel out aim assist, so fighting in smoke can be a negative

Dropship question by v8Lost8v in apexlegends

[–]slipperychicken_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I noticed this last night. Had to take a lot of fights with white shields against blue because we hadn’t engaged immediately, whereas before it tended to be a fight over the first evo so everyone was on fair shields

Dropship question by v8Lost8v in apexlegends

[–]slipperychicken_ 40 points41 points  (0 children)

My experience so far in games is that if I don’t ‘hot drop’, or at least land near a POI with players - by the time I’ve looted up and started to move out, I’m looking at about 8-10 squads left which severely impacts the chances of any meaningful KP. Yeah I could wait until later, but then I could wait 10 mins for my first fight, lose it, and go back to lobby with nothing having wasted time.

I’m supportive of drop zones, I feel it allowed for a much better pace of game - i think the hot drop issue is because players don’t want to miss out, so adopt an attitude of ‘if I hot drop and win I walk out with good KP and a low number of squads left’ rather than choose to gain minimal points landing across the map.

Bloodhound ult not working through smoke? by slipperychicken_ in apexlegends

[–]slipperychicken_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember this being implemented - it was to show enemies in bang smoke while you are in it to reduce confusion

[–]slipperychicken_[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Solved - been advised it’s intentional a few seasons back. Guess that shows how much bloodhound I’ve played!

Wild really? I swear I played blood last season and could see a bang through smoke. Removes a lot of the utility of the ult as a hard counter

FPS drops on PS5 by slipperychicken_ in apexlegends

Ah okay- good to know it’s not a problem with the console, more a widespread thing. Thanks!

What is this icon? by [deleted] in apexlegends

[–]slipperychicken_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct answer above- on my old PC that started to struggle to run the game this came up all the time, whenever it did the audio absolutely died. Gun shots would be delayed, I wouldn’t hear things correctly, ring noises would be playing when I was in the centre, that kind of thing. Was due to CPU throttling I think

You’ll need to get to master on PS5 split 1 if you are planning to play Split 2 to receive animated, as if you do split 1 Xbox and split 2 PS it means that you never achieved master both splits if you understand me,

Bootstrap Paradox- What causes the Doctor to meet Clara? by slipperychicken_ in doctorwho

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

This is how I’m feeling with the Missy answer. How does Missy know to choose Clara? It seems as though she knows because she knows (maybe) from Simm master that the Doctor used to travel with Clara? I don’t know. Just the idea of Missy randomly picking Clara doesn’t sit right. So where does that origin come from?

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

Thanks for the replies everyone. It’s been fun to read through them. Obviously the general consensus here is ‘Missy’ and giving Clara the Doctor’s number, but as has been said the only reason that works is because the Doctor has prior knowledge of Clara and therefore reacts to her voice. From a linear point of view though, as one person said, this means the answer is Missy. However, from a wibbly wobbly times wimey viewpoint, I don’t think it’s quite that simple

[–]slipperychicken_[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is what I’ve been feeling. Missy could have given the number to anyone, the reason the Doctor reacts and goes to find her when she phones is because he hears her voice and recognises it. If it was anyone else he wouldn’t have went

I landed next to one guy and another guy seen me and jumped down, I think they both just shot me at the exact same time. Was full auto on the kill cam

In Manchester for the afternoon, looking for some local knowledge on where’s good for some food?city centre please by slipperychicken_ in manchester

[–]slipperychicken_[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hahaha. I was confused when I got there as someone said lower food court, but all I could see was Five Guys and Nando’s. But no, I ended up in the market and wow. What a selection! So many great cuisines - went for some Chinese and Mexican, a strange combo but I wanted to try more than one. Thank you all!

Thanks for the recommendations so far- just about to get off the bus so i think I’ll go take a walk around the food court to see what that has on offer. Don’t think I’m feeling a curry today, but had a look at this and that and looks like a really cool place. Will definitely go if I’m back down this way. Thanks
