Nostalgia4Butts posted:vita is cool now if you hacked it when it had the 3.60 firmware Man I'm so over hacking systems. I used to be way into that stuff and even dabbled in writing homebrew but I just don't even have the energy for it anymore. To clarify my "this system sucks" statement, in order to connect to my hotel's wifi I had to download an update that enabled to feature to connect to wifi with a login page (think kind of like starbucks). My workaround was to use my phone as a hotspot and burn 200 MB international data that luckily is getting paid for by work. After the update everything worked fine. It's just a rushed, incomplete system. Games sure are fun though. Fart Sandwiches fucked around with this message at 16:35 on May 5, 2017 |

It can if the RNG gods favor you and you make a really specific build. Of course then the problem of gently caress all end game content shows up so it quickly becomes boring as poo poo

Yeah, I didn't get the whole bullet sponge thing until the different world tiers and incursions came along and holy gently caress shooting people for 15 minutes sure isn't fun.

If anyone besides me still gives a poo poo the bioware guys did a stream talking about balance changes to the multi. Helpfully summarised by one of the posters in the mea multi thread. -Non-sniper weapons are all getting a buff -Some powers were getting a buff -Combos were bugged and not scaling with difficulty -Shotguns will have a 'more defined role' related to use as a skirmish weapon -Mid & high level outlaw units getting buffed -Kett all getting nerfed, including sync kill chances -Cobra RPGs getting a buff. Won't be OHK, but more damage will carry through, including on Ascendants -UR weapons are supposed to feel better and be better than other rarities, and are getting buffed -They are looking into crashing and definitely want any feedback from people there -They're going to add something to do/buy with unused mission funds, related to progression speed No actual numbers for now, but they'll post them closer to release. So 75% of weapons aren't working right, two of three factions are not set up properly, a major damage mechanic isn't functional, and some player powers need a buff.

Call me when Andromeda is like half price and I might be dumb enough to buy it. Maybe by that time they'll have cobbled together enough patches that it doesn't look and play like a janky mess.

And that's why you always play Stalker on master.. Cranking the difficulty all the way up actually makes the game easier.

No, sorry, it's the same 3 missions over and over again until it ends. You'll be underequipped until the last hour, after which the game will poo poo powerful guns at you.

Me and two friends got our first chicken dinner in PUBG tonight. Myself and the guy I play duo with died fairly early, but our teammate, who doesn't take it seriously and sucks in general, managed to take advantage of the other squads killing each other and the circles closing around him perfectly until it was 2v1, then he fragged one guy and blindfired into smoke for the other. They never even saw him. Me and the other dude were dumbfounded by the entire thing. It was a glorious train wreck that worked out in my team's favor.

Starting to get into PUBG, got top 3 solo the first two times out. Then promptly blew myself up with a grenade next round for first death. If anyone is on Asia add me on steam as nullscan, about to head to the pc bang to see if it runs better than on my laptop.

As you play through, it's not so bullet spongey. A sniper rifle round to the dome will kill your average dude. You can even forgive bosses for being bullet spongey like the cleaner dude who is literally layered to ridiculousness in an armored gas suit, or the dudes who are using fancy shade tech gear just like you. And the big missions that you do they are actually really good. But then you hit level 30 and then to get better gear you gotta up the world tiers or do the incursions and Jesus Christ you are pumping mag after mag into just one guy and it just gets super old after that. The mechanics of the game though are really solid but if they had actually put some length into the game instead of concentrating so hard on the dark zone and forcing you to play with other players it really could've been something. I played a few characters up to level 30 though so I got my money's worth out of it.

Here's a really amusing game bug in MEA. Because enemies get tougher as you up the difficulty in single player, your powers do more damage and so do the resultant biotic/tech explosions. The bug is that if you increase your single player difficulty, that same bonus applies to your multiplayer characters  How the gently caress do you even code a game that badly? wait it gets better, if you set the game to the lowest difficulty you get a bonus against armour with guns which carries over to multi as well so you can take your pick of extra combo damage or extra armour damage by changing your singleplayer difficulty Comrade Blyatlov fucked around with this message at 19:47 on May 6, 2017 |

Missionary Positron posted:That really sucks. I thought the core idea and world building The Division was, and still is, pretty solid The atmosphere is amazing, yeah. The dark zone got expanded a while back and when you go all the way to the top, there's piles of body bags stacked in the streets up to the second and sometimes third floor of apartment buildings. Abandoned dump trucks full of 'em, a bulldozer parked on top of a corpse pile, some of them are on fire, and the streets are a blood and snow slurry. They really nailed the "yo poo poo's hosed" style. Also there's a recording telling disposal units to turn back from Central Park as there's simply no more room for any more bodies  not caring here posted:Yeah, there was a thing going around that the base gangs were nothing but black dudes in hoodies but that wasn't true at all. Yeah those articles were a pretty solid indicator of who played the game and who didn't. Like sometimes you'd find a recording of the rioter dudes trying to find meds for their kids, but more often than not they're just killing for fun. There's one one of those weird 3D renderings you can find where it's like Batman investigation mode where there's rioters -> flaming bottle -> kids and welp Then there's the sanitation dudes roasting everyone with impunity. Like oh dear you got asthma?? Too bad dude. The prison inmates are painted as nothing but life sentences folks and the radio guy even says as much. The non-violent part time folks are gonna run, it's the real bad dudes sticking around to make poo poo worse.Then lmao there's the loving PMC dudes brought in to protect Wall Street who decided now is a good time for a coup. There's an aircraft carrier with their insignia on it you can find that sadly the devs did nothing with despite it having the little inteactable things on it like ropes and ladders. But yeah mister outraged video game writer please go on how it's all innocent people you're mowing down
