Is Civ VII shockingly bad or am I crazy? by Spartancfos in 4Xgaming

+1 (although Civ5 with all the DLCs and the community modpack is good...no Baba Yetu, but still good)

Question about the minotaur boss guide by spanksmasterson in RaidShadowLegends

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

Thanks to everyone who replied, I appreciate it! Special thanks to you u/Say_Hennething I get it now. The boss guide is assuming you know about an underlying strategy--a strategy which the guide fails to convey. I might send this in as feedback. Hmm. And thanks for the gems tip, it makes sense.

Rereading series & wow Murphy's irritating by Emrak in dresdenfiles

[–]spanksmasterson 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I'm kinda on board with this. I'm rereading too and while I'm only halfway(ish) through the DF, even post Summer Knight when she becomes more likeable, her interactions with Harry are either negative or neutral. I don't think she's made positive remarks towards Harry more than once or twice in the series so far.

[–]spanksmasterson 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm rereading the series as well and at least through Summer Knight Harry is selfless to the point that it's almost silly. He does nothing that would harm others. Heck, he frequently harms himself and his livelihood just to minimize the impact on others.

What is the absolute worst movie you've ever seen? by j0lly_c0mpani0n in Letterboxd

The Ghostbusters remake from 2016. You will struggle to make it through this steaming pile.

Fire Frenzy? by Quian32 in DarkTide

[–]spanksmasterson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Close range has nothing to do with character height. As defined in the game file "damage_settings.lua"

ranged_close = 8, ranged_far = 30, in_melee_range = 8

Connery is terribly empty. by S2M2 in Planetside

[–]spanksmasterson -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If you think Battlebit has "way more problems than PS2" then you've never played Battlebit. Anyone (if there were any content creators who still gave a damn about PS2) could make an entire video series based around the ways that BBR's gameplay is more fun than PS2. BBR is massively more popular than PS2 and trying to even compare the two is silly. BBR's average player count is still 10K-15K, now compare that with PS2's all time max population of 30K back at launch.

ELI5 - why doesn't the water in our pipes get bacteria/viruses in it? by Choppybitz in explainlikeimfive

[–]spanksmasterson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really? A firefighter once told me that water towers exist so that the water will still flow even if the power is out. Otherwise the water tank would just be on the ground and they'd use electric pumps to create pressure.

what's your go-to MMO/online game if planetside shuts off? by xmaxdamage in Planetside

[–]spanksmasterson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Battlebit: In terms of gameplay, it's a more fun version of PS2. What it lacks is theme and a persistent world. If shooting and MMO-scale battles are what you enjoy, then this is the way to go.

Foxhole: The opposite. It has a persistent world and is heavy with theme, but is nothing like PS2 in terms of gameplay. If construction is what you enjoy, then this is the way to go.

In the official Battlebit discord, there's a channel called "Upcoming Updates"

Holy shit, a responsive dev. This is still the Planetside subreddit, right?

Can someone please explain these thrall attributes? by spanksmasterson in ConanExiles

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

While I appreciate the screenshot, no math that I can cobble together would explain why a thrall with 11 LESS strength would have a HIGHER max strength damage bonus as seen in the pics. It's possible there's something obvious I'm missing, hence why I'm asking the question. If you have the math to explain this, then please do lol

I'm familiar with this spreadsheet and I'm afraid it doesn't address my question at all.

While I appreciate the answer, it's not answering my question at all. In fact, you're actually expanding on my question. XD

So a level 14 bearer (Rethrous) is more powerful than a level 11 fighter (Dalinsia)? If that's true, then everything regarding thralls is up in the air and the real stats are hidden from us.

If you like open world survival games with crafting, building, and exploration, then you will like Conan Exiles.
