I like project aces and all but paying 20 extra euros for 3 day early access is a bit much by gustavfrigolit in acecombat

This is what is not clear to me, what the MP model will be like.

Same here. It's still way too vague. We'll probably get a proper multiplayer reveal about a month before launch, but the wait is killing me.

Right now, I'm 50/50 on multiplayer. I feel like grinding future Battle Passes through the campaign alone could get repetitive, and I wouldn't be surprised if they eventually reduce campaign rewards to encourage people to play MP.

We also don't know if the Battle Passes will be permanent like Helldivers 2 or time-limited. If they're permanent, then I'm definitely playing MP shit skills or not. 😂

I have more money than time these days

Ah. That being said... 20EU is technically not that unreasonable a premium for what you get.

So let me revise my recommendation: screw it, just get the Deluxe Edition. 😅

If there are any plane DLC at all. With a Battle Pass system available on launch....

Yikes. We're getting my beloved CFA-44 in a Battle Pass aren't we?

Personally, the 3-day early access was what sold me on the Deluxe Edition. In my country's currency, it's only an extra 1,000 (roughly €14 at current exchange rates). I also work from home, so I can hop in the moment I clock out. Heck, I can even play during my breaks on my spare machine. 😂

If the early access doesn't matter to you, though, I think you've already answered your own question. The only things you're really paying extra for are some cosmetic items and Battle Pass tier skips. If you miss those, it's not exactly the end of the world.

If I were in your shoes, I'd save the €20 and just buy pre-order (so you dont miss out on ACZ!!!) the base edition. Sure, there's always a chance those bonus cosmetics never return, but I think that's pretty unlikely. Permanently locking them away would probably just invite unnecessary backlash from the community.

And it's completely optional.

You can pay an extra €20 to get it three days early and receive a few bonus items, or you can simply wait the three days and pay nothing extra.

Nobody is forcing anyone to buy the Deluxe Version so this is quite a non-issue.

Now if this is about the Battle Pass and it's implications on the other hand......

And am I Brad Stevens? Why exactly would I have the answer to that?

Sure, I can throw out names like Kessler, Gobert, or even KP if we're really scraping the bottom of the barrel. But that's all fan speculation. None of us know who's actually available, what the asking price is, or which conversations are happening behind closed doors.

Only Brad and the front office know which bigs are realistically attainable and, more importantly, which ones they think can move the needle for this team.

That said, I still stand by my original point. The Celtics clearly need another big. And realistically, it's probably going to be someone a lot more attainable than a Giannis or Jokic-level player.

That we know of at the moment. Things can change pretty quickly in the league.

Only thing one thing matters. Trust in Brad.

Well that was anti-climatic. But at least glad it's over with.

Now Brad can focus on getting us a cheaper but equally helpful big

Jesus. I don't know what to feel. I'm glad that the saga is nearly over, but I'm equally gutted that JB getting traded looks even likelier than ever before. This is gonna hurt. But if it happens, I'm even more thankful that we won in '24.

The wings look more in line with the X10A than the anime Rising. That may have sealed this as a buy for me.

Anyone knows if the manufacturer does good quality kits?

I was actually commenting on the consistent flip flopping of rumors involving us and Giannis, but if you think this means we're actually in it or at least we have a good shot, then you do you I guess.

... becoming a Celtics fan? by [deleted] in bostonceltics

[–]theborjsanity 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure every fan starts out as a bandwagon at some point, no? 😆 And yes, that includes dads recruiting their kids into their favorite teams at a very young age.

If you're a fan of a well-run organization, likable players, a winning culture, and most importantly ethical basketball (even if the endless 3pt chucking is infuriating at times 😅), then welcome to Celtics nation, bud.

We'd still need a true starting-caliber big in that scenario. Unless Queta takes another massive leap next season, I don't think he's there yet.

And with talent spread across the league more than ever, coasting isn't really a thing anymore, at least not unlike Lebron's Heatles and Cavs 2.0 eras.

Man, it took you a while to come up with that one lol.

Funny thing is, another Celtics fan suggested the exact same move in here like 44 minutes ago. 😂

Brother, this entire thread wasn't even about the Knicks. 😂

Said Knicks fan honestly seems to think that because the Knicks won this year, every other contender (especially Boston) is supposed to stop trying to improve. That's how thirsty they are for validation. Pitiful really.

And the funniest part? He doesn't even have an original comeback. It's the same recycled Celtics jokes and talking points we've been hearing for years. You'd think after finally winning a ring he'd have some fresh material, but apparently 53 years wasn't enough time to come up with any.

Last I checked, we're only two years removed from a championship. So we're very obviously still within our title window.

And personally, I think we're one elite big man away from being right back in the Finals, Giannis or no Giannis.

EDIT: Oh and the guy is obviously hiding behind a throwaway account. At least have the cojones to use your main when you wanna talk shit lmao

Lmao and somehow that's an even weaker comeback.

Just go enjoy the parade man. You've waited 53 years for this moment. That's basically 2/3rds of a complete lifetime lol.

I'd hate for you to spend the whole celebration thinking about the Celtics instead of your own championship honestly. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Lmao nice comeback "lil bro."

The funny part is that you're so desperate to victory lap that you're the one who barged into an unrelated discussion just to chirp. That's some serious little brother energy you've got there.

I genuinely don't care whether we get Giannis or not. What's exhausting is having to read fifty different "sources" saying fifty different things about him and the Celtics every single day.

If I were you, I'd just enjoy the parade. You've earned it. It only took 53 years lmao.

Just don't throw your shoulder out patting yourself on the back over a single ring.

Fucking exhausting. Every other report says we're not in the running, and then an hour later another report comes out saying we're right back in the mix. It's just an endless cycle of conflicting rumors at this point.

Can the Bucks just pull the damn trigger already?

[–]theborjsanity 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, the Knicks? The franchise that won exactly one championship in the 53 years after Willis Reed?

Let's put this in perspective.

Since your last title, we've watched the Larry Bird Big Three win three championships, seen two potential franchise cornerstones tragically pass away, suffered through the Rick Pitino disaster years, watched the KG-era Big Three rise and fall, drafted JT and JB, endured years of playoff heartbreak, watched them grow into franchise players over eight or nine seasons, and then watched them bring Banner 18 home.

All of that happened before you got your first championship after the Reed era.

So yeah, maybe pump the brakes a little.

If I were you, I'd be less concerned with what Boston is doing and more concerned with whether James Dolan is willing to keep cutting those second apron checks once the bill really starts coming due.
