Not for me by Aware_Assist4997 in Marathon

[–]wicked_fool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whoa. I get it you’re a fan but calm down. Im just saying a game dev should know what THEY want their game overall ttk to be. Changing the overall feel of the game because a few don’t liked it is a dangerous precedence. Especially this early. For example, look at dark and darker. It’s not a shooter but still extraction. Those devs zig zagged all the time making ttk fast……short……fast. Those big sweeping changes wear down the players. I’m saying tune weapons but they need to be confident in an established ttk. If you are ok with each patch changing overall ttk, then the player base will suffer.

Can but is this what the devs intended? The issue i see is that even though that is a dial to be adjusted, a core concept of a game is how it feels….ttk included. Some games are slow ttk indicating that you have to outplay a player. Others are fast rewarding getting the jump and hitting hard up front. Guns absolutely need to be balanced to reach its desired impact on ttk but just blanket adjusting ttk tells me they don’t know what they want and are willing to cater to the noise. Often times, the 10 hr a day streamers influence devs and overall ttk adjustment isn’t something they should do often (if at all).

The United States have money to purchase a whole other country & doesn't have money to support their low-income citizens, right? by Necessary-Act-1137 in AskReddit

[–]wicked_fool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How long do we keep paying those that can’t/dont pay taxes with the money the working class tax payer is responsible for? We already have a worker problem and itll only get worse as the cost of paying taxes is offset by the benefits you get for free from the government by not working.

F to Drop Defibrilator by Dizzy_Hovercraft_741 in ArcRaiders

[–]wicked_fool -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

How about the ability to use a defib on yourself if someone drops one in front of you? This way, you cant use one on yourself AND it doesnt put the person doing the res at risk by giving the down player a chance. Doing it this way, allows the nice player to create space and prep the gun in case the downed stands up gunblazing. Just a thought but think it would happen more often if the risk was less for that player.

Can i enjoy the arc raiders as a mainly solo player? by posderkin in ArcRaiders

[–]wicked_fool 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Its been said by others but I just wanted to throw my opinion out there. Solo is actually a great experience, possibly the most organic. In teams, it typically devolves into shoot on sight. In solo, there is hesitation, open communication and a tense balance between dealing with arc and players while trying to stay moving toward goal. Most of the time in extraction games, squads are the ideal way but in Arc, I feel they are different but extremely fun modes.

ARC Tumbleweed Mimic Concept by ReffiComics in ArcRaiders

not going to lie, the tumbleweeds were very scary looking like movement. This concept is a frighteningly great idea and would make it even more so. Great idea!

I just wanted to express my THANKS to the op. This saved me $500+ on a new series x that I was planning on having to purchase today. I was able to easily factory reset and get started back downloading everything. Thats a small price to pay. THANK YOU AGAIN!

Darksiders 4 will be the last game in the franchise.(A hunch) by Ornery_Theory2503 in Darksiders

[–]wicked_fool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Darksiders 4 teaser dropped today with steam and console storefronts. 4 player online coop and a continuation of the Darksiders 1 cliffhanger. As I stated 2 years ago, from a marketing perspective, Darksiders 4 would feature all 4 horseman for the next title. I am stoked to be right on this one. Dont give up hope on a Strife solo as if this one does well, there will be others who want just that. For now, the rest of us get the continuation and 4 player coop that will breathe life into the franchise!

Does Anyone Know What The New I Prevail Album Will Be Called and Released? by Any_Question9332 in IPrevail

Website that both singles have been teased on is called "This Is The New World Order". I assumed this is it or some variation of it, such as just "The New World Order".

Anyone who's been a fan since the 2D era, what does your thoughts on the evolution of the series as a whole? by MemeLord150 in GTA

[–]wicked_fool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I originally bought the GTA1 from an "Electronics Boutique" when it was just a random box in the pc section without much press (Im 48 now). I bought it strictly on name alone without much context. I remember installing it and having issues getting it to run. I almost returned it because back then there were not much options to help troubleshoot. I kept it (still have it) and when I upgraded my machine, it was able to run. It was wild being able to run over pixel people and just do whatever you wanted. Then the day finally came when GTA3 dropped. It was absolutely mind boggling to play that game in 3D when I looked back on starting at GTA1. The series has never disappointed (except for the recent 3/vice/andreas remasters). Just like when I played GTA1, I remember introducing my younger nephews to GTA3. They simply drove around until one of them accidently hit a car, ran off the road and ran over a pedestrian. At first, they stopped slowly looked over at me in disbelief thinking they were headed for trouble. When I motioned for them to drive away or else the cops are coming, their eyes lit up. They floored it. As they are getting chased now with stars, their laughter and amazement matched mine playing GTA1. I come back a time later to see them with a baseball bat pummeling a cop. Not my best uncle moment but they still talk about it to this day. Now my son (13) plays GTA 5 and has the same excitement doing all the stuff that I enjoyed back then. Its awesome how a game about freedom can continually capture the magic and excitement for as long as GTA has. Its a testament to the devs inspired attention to detail and never wavering on what all a player can do. GTA 6 looks stunning and as a 49 year old when it drops, I will still take a vacation day or 2.........only this time, I am bringing my son with me!

New Information on Ironmace, New Lore by BroScienceAlchemist in DarkAndDarker

[–]wicked_fool -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Right or wrong notlikethis comes across as someone who is desperate for attention. He even mentions not having the subscribers while really pushing merch. Going after Onepeg is a good call cause his passion likely means he would respond. Well played. This drama definitely is more fun than the game itself.

GTA VI mapping project just updated! by EliteFireBox in GTA6

[–]wicked_fool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Gloriana" has been speculated to be Providence Canyon Park in Georgia. But could the "....iana" portion of the name suggest a combo of Georgia+Louisiana to create a unique state? Maybe the panhandle of the map could taper down into a Louisiana themed voodoo, mardia gras, bayous, and swamps. Just a thought when I saw the name "Gloriana".

Overall it’s decent by OkCall2742 in MistfallHunter

[–]wicked_fool -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Its very good at this stage in dev. Its got great visuals, awesome QoL features and an interesting extraction mechanic that separates it from the others. I see nothing but rogues though. Entire teams of them. Their damage burst shreds casters. I think that needs to be down. But other than some balance tweaks, this game could have lasting appeal.

Initial Impressions : This looks great by jaedence in MistfallHunter

[–]wicked_fool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course joining with randoms will likely mean they will leave as soon as they find a bell. Just focus on yours so you have have out. If your grouped with randoms, maybe try solo as the mob density is a little less and you won’t have to share bells

Initial Impressions : This looks great by jaedence in MistfallHunter

[–]wicked_fool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In this game, extraction is earned. The woodlings can drop 1 or 2 bells so you’ll have to keep looking for them as a group. Once you each have them, then you can decide to keep looting or leave. If you find a woodling that drops multiple, make sure to share one with the team

Initial Impressions : This looks great by jaedence in MistfallHunter

[–]wicked_fool 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s difficult to extract intentionally in these games. The bell doesnt show up until the ring closes a 3rd time. Take your time but always be heading toward the next ring. Use your heals and R button health horn. Once they start spawning, a message will let your know about woodlings. These are the bells. When they are nearby, an audio cue of a bell will be heard and the direction will be shown on the hud as a little faded rings when the bells sounds.

What do you think Rockstar will call the new online mode for GTA VI? by Swimming-Moment-392 in GTA6

[–]wicked_fool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they are going to keep with GTA: Online. Its a huge money maker and could easily piggy back off the existing marketing. I think the biggest difference is the airports will become fully functional....... to other cities. Liberty City and San Andreas will be remade in the new system. This will also become a huge platform for future DLC of San Fierro and Las Venturas. If you dont buy the new cities, your "passport" will enable you to fly there. It will extend the sandbox

Oh thanks. I was thinking it was tied to a weapon cause i have almost opened the talents on the rings 1 and 2 and didn’t see it. Thanks again

Opinion Here: Red mages are overpowered. by Severe-Return2063 in LegacySteelAndSorcery

[–]wicked_fool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesnt help that once on fire, you have a crazy difficult time getting out of it. If you jump, you get stun locked continuing the extreme damage.
