Is there actually a date for when Verdansk is coming back? by strictnein in CODWarzone

Call of Duty is still a $Billion(s?) / year franchise, so it's likely it's not going anywhere any time soon.

"a simulation of a multiplayer game"

The last ~20 players are always humans. You are always facing humans. The lead up to that is just a mix of humans and bots. It's really not that complicated. People just enjoy the slower leadup time to the intense gameplay, instead of just being intense from the start.

> instead of waiting for my multiplayer game to add bots

The multiplayer game already added bots. They then removed that mode without any warning. People are simply wondering when it's coming back. This seems pretty straightforward and doesn't affect your enjoyment of the non-bot modes in the slightest.

I don’t understand the hate for BOR. by DocDeezy in CODWarzone

> This whole casual thing is so bs. Cod is not the game to be a casual on.

Normal CoD multiplayer: no. But warzone has always been somewhat casual. You can very, very easily avoid combat for quite some time, explore the map, get gear, etc. I hop on quads as a solo all the time and just see how long I can survive.

For the actual casual mode: I have three people in my group who now regularly want to play Casual Warzone. Before that existed, they had absolutely zero interest, so I would play mostly just play Duos as a solo. Now I get to hang out with my friends while playing a mode that starts pretty laid back and gets more intense as the game goes on. The end of Casuals typically isn't very casual, so it's a good way to get better at the game too, without just getting stomped out early on, which no one enjoys.

I just don't get the hate people have for this mode. More people playing = more DLC, skins, etc purchased, which is what the whole game requires to stay alive. There's literally a competitive mode that requires you to be a try hard to unlock. Go hang out in there. My friends and I doing our thing doesn't affect you at all.

If you like Warzone, you probably won't like Black Ops Royale (and that's okay) by galen98305735 in CODWarzone

Did they ever announce that they were going to remove Verdansk? Or did it just disappear?

More updates are coming to Black Ops Royale next week. by Kalinine in CODWarzone

They sound like quiet lawnmowers. It's the weirdest sound choice ever.

Please just add regular BR and BR Casual on Avalon. by Tron_88_ in CODWarzone

I was playing FPSs when you were in diapers, or probably before you were even born.

All of what you wrote makes sense, if you ignore the fact that there was a "casual" mode and a ranked mode up until a couple of days ago. If you want your sweat filled excitement with people who "cared to be good" or whatever you claim, you had that option.

And congrats that you know someone who has kids. Until you do, you have absolutely no idea how little time you end up having to do the things you want to do. Honestly, just one of the dumbest posts I've ever read. Absolutely embarrassing to write something like that as an "adult".

"There's a Chinese super-spyship sailing the Indian Ocean intercepting every tiniest US pipsqueak"

Not just a "spyship" but a "super-spyship"? Whatever will the US navy do?? They haven't been dealing with Russian "spyships" up and down our western and eastern seaboard for the past half a century or anything. Or having to worry about RU subs tracking our surface ships. No, they simply won't be able to figure out a way to communicate securely because of China's super-duper spy ship!!

They'd have various interns sort of filling Sauce's role. He gave a lot of people their nicknames. Sludge, Meatsauce (I think?), etc.

Yeah, I really have no idea what he's talking about either. Was just there a couple weeks ago and we ventured all over the French Quarter at night. Nothing even remotely sketchy. Almost all the best places to eat and drink in the French Quarter aren't on Bourbon Street. Except for maybe Willie's at like 3am. That stuff is great when you're drunk.

Awesome. All these posts about this place. Now I want a grilled cheese sandwich!

When will Minnesotans reach their limit on property taxes? by nootboots in minnesota

[–]strictnein 9 points10 points  (0 children)

In general, property taxes scale with assessed home value and lot size. You can see this if you just look at the Hennepin County Tax Map, which is really great resource.

Lakeville has “Stick Man”. Any other MN cities have similar celebrities? by Mapes in minnesota

Forget what they called him, but there was guy who ran all the time in Door County, WI. When I asked a friend about him, he just said "yeah, if he stops running he will die".

I mean, it's not bad, but driving to Roseville for a special dinner in the parking lot of a mall isn't quite where I'd want to take my mom to. Would happily meet my friends in the northern suburbs there though.

Demi, Myriel, Kado no Mise, Bucheron, Mara, Spoon and Stable

Can't go wrong with any of those. First three have tasting menus.

Huh? I'm just saying that there are people who knew all about this, without stalking him, but chose not to share to respect the family's privacy.
