It's time for some brave developers to explicitly call their "romances" sexual harassments instead.

video game romances shouldn't exist outside of ones with premade characters and linear stories and then 90% of those still shouldn't exist since lovely romantic writing is more unbearable than just regular lovely writing

Romance novels are as big a sector as genre fiction novels and you better believe they are just as poorly written

romance is hard to write but as it's a major factor in many many lives, media is always going to reflect it. game designers are generally pretty bad at it but that's more a result of game desing not rewarding or encouraging that skillset monetarily. if you're good at writing/editing/storyboarding romance you've got better poo poo to do than learn computer design too and then seek out the worst possible paying position for it

when i play support and i just run around points that my team just captured, or where i've previously seen the enemy team moving through, placing claymores until i run out. after that i mostly run around and try to find people to shoot. i get 30-40 claymore kills a game and have been at the top of my team's leaderboard from doing this. you can place 20 claymores if you have the right armor and use all your ammo packs, and there's no cap. you wanna put them in spots where people can't see the wires, like at the base of windows they're climbing through, behind knee high objects or in grass or bushes.

yeah it's good. also probably not something that should be in the game but whatever it's funny

Jokerpilled Drudge posted:

people can't run private servers yet, I think the devs are trying to find ways to prevent people from running servers dedicated to grinding unlocks before that. there's no matchmaking as far as i can tell.

when you place claymores on the other side of windows/cover, do you face the wires towards the wall or away?

should grind out the sv98 15 kills for the medium scope, tho the dmr is a bit more flexible. snipers in this game are absolute garbage and you can dunk them strafing in sniper duels lol
