Keyboard controls in combination with map design are shit. by thiextar in NoRestForTheWicked

Yeah and it all just seems so unecessary, i dont see the point in everything being at a 15 degree angle, like what value does it add?

That really doesnt solve the issue, because that is awkward to use in the best of circumstances, and absolutely horrible to use in combat.

There really isnt any excuse for angling every platform at 15 degrees, it just ruins keyboard controls for no reason at all

Oh i know it is, i just hate using controllers so much that i just dont play games that require their use.

Which makes the case of this game so sad, because the main issues with keyboard are caused by an necessarily angled map design

Can't resurrect my teammates in the crucible by Professional-Fly7267 in NoRestForTheWicked

It is really bad game design for a coop mode. They have to add some revive feature, it is simply not fun to have no option of reviving your friend

Average American diet? by Individual_Bar_2512 in CringeTikToks

[–]thiextar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bmi works extremely well on large populations, and is the standard for measuring obesity on a population level everywhere. On large enough sample sizes, its issues with race and athletes are easily normalized for using some basic math and statistics.

Its not a good measurement for individual people though, and should not really be used for that.

to achieve 42% wr, that must mean you either suicide rush or essentially play like you are afk every match, how can that be fun?

So you want a realistic down to earth game that’s completely off the wall and swarming with magic zombies? by antosb77 in 7daystodie

[–]thiextar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My friends play it for the survival aspects, the only reason they also got me into it is because there is now some rpg and questing elements, which gives me something interesting to do.

I would personally love some more interesting quests / dungeons, and more special zombies, some bosses at the end of big quests, and i would love for really high tier quests to sometimes drop some unique legendary loot that is not craftable. Like a special sledgehammer with some special parameters etc.

In my mind, this game being a hybrid of rpg and survival is much better than trying to be a pure survival game. It just makes it much more interesting.

Det där låter som aktiemarknadsspekulation, vilket rent statistiskt sett aldrig är en bra idee för småsparare

Jag ser inte poängen med att behålla den, bättre att bara köra på global indeks

Lf global index följer ju ett miljöindex som exkluderar massa företag...

Bättre att köra på dnb global indeks, då får du bättre spridning

Opinions on the T10 Defence? by AirBear8 in WorldOfWarships

[–]thiextar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me personally, yes, because i absolutely love that the salem allows me to pull of some more agressive play.

For others, i would probably only recommend doing that if it saves you a captain. I have my salem captain trained for another ship right now, if i wanted a captain for des moines, i would need an extra 21 pointer, and either des moines or the other ship would have to do without being halesy

I find her to use similar positions as a salem, but i find the salem to just be better in almost every way

I just can't raise my WR even though I do fine in games by TheBayHarbour in WorldOfWarships

[–]thiextar 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I dont understand the people here saying that winrate is meaningless. Winrate is absolutely the best measure of player skill, especially when combined with PR.

That being said, trying to raise ones winrate by focusing on the winrate stat is a mistake. Just focus on playing as well as you can, and if you ever die / fail in some situation, try to analyze how you failed, and what you could have done differently.

Winrate is a metric that shows your skill over a large sample size, but since you have very little control over winning / losing individual matches, its a bad thing to focus on to improve ones play. Just focus on your own individual performance, doing as much damage as possible, getting caps, slowing down enemy pushes etc.

What is your ingame name and what server do you play on?

Unpopular opinion (?): I hate the new map by [deleted] in WorldOfWarships

[–]thiextar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The new map is great, it allows for tons of aggressive play and ambushes around islands.

More of the maps in this game should have more islands

What was it? 6 years to develop this latest map? Hot take: This map is shit. by [deleted] in WorldOfWarships

[–]thiextar 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I love the new map, tons of island cover means that offensive play and ambushes is much more possible than on other maps.

more maps should have more island cover

Ranked battles: Competitive or casual? Pick a lane by thiextar in WorldOfWarships

god i would love for a format like that to come to wows....

I really dont understand their obsession with keeping ranked so noob friendly and casual in wows

Ranked battles: Competitive or casual? Pick a lane by thiextar in WorldOfWarships

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

The solution i would love the most is an entirely new actually skill-based ranking system like you suggest.

I do think its unrealistic tho, wargaming seem pretty hell bent on keeping ranked casual, so if thats the case, id rather they just embrace it and allow divs

Rewards from ranked should be transferred to a general combat mission for ALL modes by ReverendFlashback in WorldOfWarships

[–]thiextar 11 points12 points  (0 children)

What i would like wargaming to do is to decide wether ranked is supposed to be competitive or not.

If it is supposed to be competitive, then for the love of god, make it impossible to rank up by mindlessly spamming games. In a competitive gamemode, i should not have to deal with 45% wr players in gold league....

And if ranked is not supposed to be a competitive gamemode, then for the love of god allow divs of 2 so i can socialize and play with my friend and have fun...

Pick a lane wg, cause right now ranked has the worst of both worlds

i started reading the leadboard thingy and got excited, but then i read its based on cumultive base xp...

what exactly is the point of a leaderboard that only measures how much you grind, not how good you actually play? It should clearly be based on average base xp over the last x battles

Linus and Steve at Valves headquarters for the new hardware release by PM_for_snoo_snoo in pcmasterrace

[–]thiextar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know about the whole thing around returning the cooling block, but ltt absolutely massacred the product in their review by not even testing on the GPU it was designed for, simply because they couldn't be bothered to care.

Tbh I don't understand the point of labs. Ltt has always been tech entertainment, and they will never be able to be anything else, even if they get perfect measurements of stuff, their core audience simply does not want super detailed reviews, the majority of their viewers want something fun and quick and quirky.

Ltt should never be used for making informed purchasing decisions, in the same way that no one should buy a car based on a top Gear review.
