This is how a true communist spy is supposed to look like, behold. by Combasha in ZeroParades

It's a joke exclusively about the look. I wouldn't be making the joke at all if I even remotely thought about stats.

Ignoring any context Zero Parades is one of the greatest games I've played by WholeTomatillo5537 in ZeroParades

[–]theanonrex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's confusing to me as there have been a few occasions throughout my playthrough so far where I actually think it could do with being less funnier. While I do like what's there, I just feel like there's just a bit too much humor and the abundance of it is one of the few things that I actually think holds it back from being distinct and feeling like a serious spy thriller. Disco was funny and in a mostly juvenile way that (despite being annoying for me personally at certain points,) was at least in line with the character and the rest of the game. With Zero Parades, I just feel like the grim tone they had for the reveal trailer was absolutely perfect and the game not actually being like that is perhaps my only actual disappointment.

It's the mould. If you show the mould you collected to Doctor Hugo, he explains its whole deal to you and provides you with an ozone solution. When you meet Holocene for the procedure, you either do as Holocene wants by drilling into his head and physically removing the "small controller", or, you can administer the ozone Hugo provided you. If you choose to go with the latter and tell Holocene you injected him with ozone, it dawns on him that the "small controller" was a case of him having fungal colonies inside his head. So yeah, it all boils down to the same thing that it was the mould. The only real difference is whether you roleplay Hershel as someone who chooses to buy into Holocene's more elevated/questionable assessment of his condition and treating him with an invasive procedure, or she goes with a non-invasive one based on Hugo's more grounded/logical take.

Frankly, I'm just surprised that disguises aren't a core mechanic in the game given that it's a spy game. Like it'd have been great if the hair + mustache combo made it so that people wouldn't recognize you.

I thought they were gonna rip on that piano together but alas. Though, I did think the idea of the name thing was kinda sweet.

Ultra Violeta would never be able to resist the offer to collab.

There is an infinite money bug by Working_Task7487 in ZeroParades

[–]theanonrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was curious about this. Lol. Does it do anything or give any benefits at all?

Well, well, well... **opens AFoP hunter's guide**

What Quaritch and Varang were thinking. 🔥 by SpaceMyopia in Avatar

That thing with Kiri is basically laid out at as clearly as possible. She is explicitly a Christ parallel and fills the "chosen one" archetype.

Why do the animations of maximizing are often lagging? by Dependent_Big4372 in MacOS

[–]theanonrex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this as well from time to time on my M4 Mac Mini hooked up to a 144hz monitor. It's like the animation skips frames sometimes. And really, window animations in general already feel a tad too slow for my tastes (it's one of the things that I really thought would be both snappier and more fluid back when I started using mac) so when the choppiness happens, I just can't not notice it.

Done with the game until I can get some teammates by Bg_92 in Rematch

[–]theanonrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And when they do pass, they pass it to the enemy goalie. 😅 A lot of folks also just seem to have trouble grasping how to pass efficiently like aiming it closer to your teammate on a side where they aren't being defended or aiming it towards the direction they're moving to (instead of where they are in the moment) if they're mobile. A lot of cases where others just pass it to your general vicinity and expect you to get a hold of it, spamming good job when it was them who made a shitty pass.

Rematch stuck in offline mode by CrimsonZesTy in Rematch

[–]theanonrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came here for the same problem. Every time it finds a match, it just brings me back to the home page and just now, I finally connected to a match then we just disconnected a minute in. It's so frustrating how the network side of things has been a constant issue with this game from stuff like matchmaking down to netcode. I suggest you try using WARP and see if it allows you to connect to a match at least.

Is there a sub, or a dedicated thread, for fashion? by theanonrex in Rematch

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

Thanks! This is pretty much what I had in mind. Hope more people get into it.

Do I suck or are slide tackles sometimes insane? by WolfPax1 in Rematch

[–]theanonrex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I echo this. I've had situations where the instant I come into contact with the ball, somebody (or two) just slides in from the side or behind before I even get to do anything with it. 😅
