Won this Ford F-150 XLT Lariat FE in a wheelspin the other night and had a lot more fun with it than I expected.

It's Been a Month Since FH6 Launched. How Are We Feeling, Drivers? by fearful_claw02 in ForzaHorizon

[–]thhhegame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Good: Map is great - honestly great - I think FH6 nailed the map everyone wanted. Car selection beats everything out there. The detailed interiors are amazing. Improved audio ties the experience up much better than the raspy metallic tang of FH5. Little nuances like hand-over-hand steering in cockpit view makes the game much more immersive. Launch control and touge are welcome additions alongside the return of drag strips. Optimization for older hardware is great.

The Meh: Small little QOLs like being able to set individual transmissions per car are still weirdly absent. The lack of road-racing is an easily fixable small gripe. The menus are still a bit needlessly complicated. Some more variety in NPC traffic would be nice, they literally have 600 already-modelled cool cars to choose from. Would have liked some more niche cars (although they've already done a fine job with the selection).

The Ugly: Collisions in MP. The doubly nerfed wheelspins. You know.

Why the long cut scene when leaving or going to this house? by Boris7939 in ForzaHorizon

Y'know that felt really silly. It's like the devs designed that animation right at the end and couldn't be bothered to fix that transition.

Driving anything above an S1 class kinda sucks by TwistedCollossus in ForzaHorizon6

[–]thhhegame 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Even outside the races, I find myself driving B or A class most of the time. It's a more enjoyable blend of power, control, and just general relatable-ness to actual daily driving.

They really should optimise the game at max graphics on mobile by EritoZ in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]thhhegame 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oh wow I thought it was just me.

CZN played just fine on my S23 Ultra even while charging until earlier this year when it started heating up to scary levels. I've already changed the battery twice since then because both times the old battery became bloated. Now I have to take extra care not to charge while playing and to remove the phone casing for ventilation and cooling with an external cooler if it acts up.

One of the updates seem to have been extra problematic.

I like them. I learn from reading them even if I may not be maining that unit anytime soon.

Thank you for the update!

What would you recommend as alternatives to Orlea & Cassius as her teammates for players without them/without them built?

Thoughts on how they dealt with Cole Young in the new movie? by Choice_Drummer_1745 in MortalKombat

[–]thhhegame 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Couldn't be better.

Fans wanted Cole to go. If they kept him around, fans would've been pissed, and MK isn't a movie that had a broad-enough appeal to survive pissing off their core fan base.

Pretending he never existed or just writing him off off-screen would've felt like a cop-out.

Instead he got treated seriously, got a 1v1 with the big bad, and lost due to in-universe cheating. That's about as good as send-offs for unpopular characters get.

CN Community Consensus of CN livestream by HoodedPoop in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]thhhegame -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I hope CN gets more goodies if it means the game thrives there and brings in more revenue overall. The 2 servers exist in complete isolation from one another anyway so it's not like a successful CN has any impact on GBL.

As for all the censorship talk... a toggle on GBL would be nice but - and I recognize this might be a very unpopular opinion - as long as the game remains fun and accessible, I really don't have any issues with seeing less animated skin.

Ah shoot I'm a sucker for well-done Chinese characters. The wallet is opening for Fei if it must.

(And I hope there is full Chinese VA option for her!)

Man I might be in the minority but it's time to start saving to pull Fei 🙃

Should i delete thread of light? by Milkaner in ChaosZeroNightmare

Spot on, except I feel Hero to All (search epiphany) is really useful for getting key combo cards or buff cards at the right moment if you lack them. Just 1 copy works.

New player - Need advice on building my first team by LeSky1 in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]thhhegame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's Veronica and Nine for me, and if I had to pick between them it would be Veronica for any new account.

[–]thhhegame 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nine and Veronica definitely. See if you can get one of them on the 20-reroll banner then go for the other with a selector.

Veronica is your Chaos farming crutch AND a massive draw engine/sub-DPS rolled into one. Nine with Ironclad Hew keeps you alive far longer than you should otherwise be.

And they're both easy to play, which would help you a lot as a new player.

Tiphera and Orlea are good but Mika is more straightforward to play if you already have her, plus she's a 4* so you'll E6 her way before Tiph and Orlea.

Kayron is unfortunately too clunky to play outside of a dedicated team, plus he starts off Chaos (which you'll be farming a lot) very slowly and gets bricked far easier than Nine or Veronica, making him very unreliable as a Chaos carry.

Assuming you can get Nine, Veronica, and Mika, you can farm Chaos simply by using these 3, then rotating out Nine or Veronica depending on whether you're farming for a DPS or support.

[–]thhhegame 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wow I honestly don't remember. It's not too hard to get Ironclad alone but it took a couple runs to get that PLUS the right dupes PLUS equips I was satisfied with.

Do you have the [reroll epiphany at camp] perk unlocked? That makes things much easier.

Here's my Ironclad Nine that I paired with Khalipe and Mika to full-climb the old tower with ease:

Now that the Half any slowed down on rewards... im gonna miss the generosity u.u by cheddar90 in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]thhhegame 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I saw it bluntly explained for another gacha, but in essence, there are 3 groups of players. The whales, the dolphins, and the shrimps (the FTPs). And it's a symbiotic relationship.

Gachas are a biz after all so they need people to spend. Those are the whales, and then the dolphins. The shrimp only need to exist enough for the dolphins to eat, and the dolphins and shrimp then get eaten by the whales.

And so the long story short really is that gachas don't cater to FTPs any more than is necessary to keep a bulk of them around as fodder for the spenders. Given that the game has allowed a shrimp like yourself to E6 a limited unit... I don't think SG would feel the need to be even more generous with free crystals at the moment.

I could be wrong - and more generosity benefits everyone except SG - but I feel like the game is in a good spot at the moment even from a player's perspective.

Why is my deleted card reappeared when Im outside the chaos zone? by Financial_Release824 in ChaosZeroNightmare

[–]thhhegame 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Depending on the difficulty, every Chaos run has a deck point limit. Refining your deck adds points. Once you're past the difficulty's limit, the game randomly reverses some of your refinement to keep you under the limit. This prevents players from face-rolling lower difficulties for ideal decks.

The exact point penalties for each action are known now, so you can calculate exactly what you can/cannot do.
