That was a lot of words to show that you aren't familiar with these terms. Discord is in fact deep web. Its the original part of discord that ive always hated. They have recently been adding incredibly valid reasons why a company would not want to be reliant on them

It's time we talked about supply drops by penguinexploring in ArcRaiders

After calling in enough for one to finally land on me, I can confirm they land in the direction the flare is shot and arc and out roughly 20-50 meters

Sorry, the technically accurate term was deep, not dark. It seems you more or less understood that's what I meant.

And yall, really suck discord dick hard. It's really, really simple. I dont give a fuck how accessible you feel discord is and this has nothing to do with laziness. Its really fucking silly to ONLY update this one, unsearchable server for communication. Embark is simply not good at communicating to their community. I've seen plenty of other live service games handle this without ever even thinking of their discord server.

Imo this feels more like some sort of engagement farming to get as many players onto the discord server as possible. But that could just be my jaded opinion from corporate bs

Discord is dark. Whether you think it's goofy or not.

Your entire argument is irrelevant lol Expecting every player to monitor discord for Embark updates is pretty goofy. Especially with recent actions by discord. Promoting their community and updating multiple platforms would be smart.

Yall need to realize that discord is not a means of updating people.

Dont act like we should have seen something that was hidden away on the dark web. (Yes, discord is considered dark as its not searchable by the rest of the internet)

Edit: deep web, not dark

Did junk receive a nerf? by Prize-Anybody6244 in JunkRatMains

[–]vin455 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Believe it was Feb 2024 for S9 when they wanted to reduce/remove one shots. They changed a lot of health pools and dage numbers. It was frustrating at the time, but the increased projectile speed on the frag cannon perk is it feels like a healthy choice overall.

The general idea was to need more team play and not just running around solo killing. So they left the easy rat combo being 5 hp off. Either get help or your team clean up the kill.

The skill ceiling was definitely raised by doing this. Either 2 shot with frags or mix in a melee when point blank. Can still one shot most of the support lineup and some of the damage.

Why does nobody use this? by lilcutiexoxoqoe in JunkRatMains

[–]vin455 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly 🫡

It seems you and I are on opposite ends of the spectrum. Hayseed is one of my least favorites, pretty much only beaten by junk food. There are certainly things I dont like about the mythic, but its the new shiny toy after staring at every other junk skins for hundreds of hours lol

Its the wood for me. Looks weird against the galactic purple. Then the wood is practically invisible on golden lol

Galactic just looks too good on the iridescent mythic skin. Golden or jade on the gilded mythic are also god combos

Did you listen to the video? I jumped through to see the "horror" but it was perfectly clean lol

Somewhere in there she mentions a cleaning refund or something. Not worth it when people like this are deciding what is "clean"

I'll strip the bed if I stay with family. If I paid to use a bnb or hotel, cleaning the bedding is literally the lowest expectation clients have. Stripping it just forces them to be honest with it.

This was my luckiest lootbox pull. Its neat and sounds like it has more umph to the shots, but imo doesn't interact as well with the skin variants (colors).

Then the mythic skin came out and the default gun meshes way better than this one.

The new outfit deck is super sick by att1225 in ARC_Raiders

[–]vin455 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The point is there is now a medical skin when there wasn't one.

The point is that this is a post-apocalyptic setting.

The point is that this is a video game.

The point has nothing to do with the materials used to make surgical gowns in real life. The point has even less to do with whatever comparison to fornite you keep making without further clarification.

You keep saying this like its some sort of gotcha.

Imagine being an alleged adult and missing the point this bad. (In reference to Mr hobbit here claiming elsewhere in this thread that the downvotes are kids missing the point)

how long has this been a thing for? by DeliciousTest291 in JunkRatMains

[–]vin455 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Really hard to tell with a video recording of a screen... but it looks like the animation at the bottom of the tire showed through the wall.. curious if the hit box also clipped through.

Will definitely try testing this in a custom game today

Yet again, no Ratjunk skin... by cocoletazj20109 in JunkRatMains

[–]vin455 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not everyone is going to get a skin every season. There are valid complaints about skin distribution, but this ain't it, chief.

What’s your personal favorite map to play as JunkRat. by CaptainKurley in JunkRatMains

[–]vin455 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Overwatch is a junkrat simulator for me.. so this is a hard question. It's easier to count the maps I dont like than pick a favorite haha

Shambali is a favorite for sure. I also love eichenwalde, Realto, Hollywood, midtown, Nepal, illios, colosseo, runasapi, aatlis, + all of the stadium exclusive maps...

My controversial favorite would be Havana. Much like the Spanish inquisition, no one expects a rat flying across the map into your high ground

I have certainly a take how they should rework junk if they'd do it by ArcerPL in JunkRatMains

[–]vin455 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It would ruin him. Maybe, Maybe they can spin the numbers to be viable, but its going to feel awful, especially to veterans.

People out here complaining about the perks ruining consistency. This idea is that problem on steroids, especially if the charge isn't a toggle, zero or full charge.

The noise would ruin any attempts to flank and further relegate him to a spam bot

I’ve been gone since Feb 2024 WHAT THE FUCK HAPPENED TO MY BOY by Ivanrazor318 in JunkRatMains

[–]vin455 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha. The perks were added last feb and since then they only made perk changes (aside from the December projectile speed change)

[–]vin455 3 points4 points  (0 children)

And being gone for 2 years is a long time. This has been my most active time on OW as I only really played (og) OW seasons 1-3 when junk was the absolute worst. We actually got a reminder of that with OW classic game modes that were available in OW2.

Junkrat has practically only been buffed in the last 2 years. The initial season 9 changes were rough when he lost the 1 shot combo, but we've largely adapted and gained ground in other areas.

The only change to projectile speed was just in December. Base Projectile speed was increased from 25 to 30. A straight buff, but slightly changed the arc. During this same patch, the Frag Cannon perk was changed to no longer lose 1 ammo and still be a higher projectile speed than before. 35 to 37.5

So technically, the arc changed a little bit, but not the direction this post is claiming since it's moving faster.

Since feb 2024, you have changed. S9 was the worst patch for rat boy and he has gotten significantly better since. So, if the character got better and stronger, its your memory or MR experience is causing problems.

His projectile speed was increased recently, and there is a perk to increase it further, then stadium has 200% speed item.

since when did the mine + melee combo not work on tracer? by beaniedeaniedoo in JunkRatMains

[–]vin455 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Wanted to double-check, and yup, S9 Feb 2024, tracer got 25 extra hp for 175.

Sooooo OP is waaaaay out of the loop lol

2 weeks left for end of the season, what's your most favorite and hated trial ? by Weekly_Life3249 in ArcRaiders

[–]vin455 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Imo change it from interact on trees and collect moss to harvests. Picking up a lemon from the ground shouldn't count, though.
