    That boils back to al the damn knock back this game has now. This has always been an issue with all melee AT's, not just strictly a Stalker issue. Tanks, Brutes, Scrappers and Stalkers all share that same problem. However, the Knock Back crowd won that war, so now we have to deal with it. However, no matter which melee AT I play, I already know that chasing my target or mobs is always going to be a problem. That is why they gave us Fold Space, the problem with that is though, not everyone wants to take Teleport as their travel power to get it on every single melee character they have, so that power in of itself becomes redundant. I don't see any of that changing though, but point being, that is not a Stalker problem, that is a melee class problem.

     

    last dozen or so characters ive made of various AT have all had combat teleport (or natively for ws). combat is too quick not to have insta port available to be peak 'sports maximum', kupo.

  2. you see stalkers in groups, particularly, dashing frantically to mobs to get a hit in, on trash anyway. whether theyre doing vastly more than a blaster on AVs? maybe?

     

    aside from the aoe focused sets, like spines or ele, theyre very limited (when compared to decimation blasters bring), and even on those need to work much harder to feel as if theyre actually playing.

     

    i dont know if thats something that can be fixed, as thered be riots if blaster damage came down.

  3. itll work.

     

    smoke, pbaoe controls, bonfire, hot feet, the time bubble cc, aura, and pbaoe buffs compatible with your melee party members and might help imps stay alive'ish.

     

    mhm, kupo, itll work.

  4. when are they fixing archery? i hope its soon.

     

    the redraw happens, which locks you, even though damage from something like arrow cone hits shortly before the draw is complete.

     

    it plays hell with secondary power execution delay, which gets clunky.  was messing on a corruptor and was super annoying. likely the same on a blaster with 2ndary melees etc.

     

    i cant make pittoo properly... so it really is a high priority fix!

     

     

  5. i couldnt go on after a few hours.

     

    the story, well I just left click skipped as much as I could.  that's a me problem, you have to be RIVITING for me to actually listen to whatever you've got some 25y/o writing at me these days.  changing of the guard at Bethesda, is what I'd say about writing disconnectedness and quality in this title.

     

    Its like there's mark of the tread of old veteran, and mash / plant of the new on a changed muddled sea o' words. 

     

    endemic of time, and something unseen to those not having played daggerfall when it released or the like.

     

    truth is, I don't remember a word of the story in Ultima IV, or oblivion. nor kings quest, nor space quest, nor system shock past names, voice clip fragments, and echoes of places traversed. just more of a feeling of, I liked that I remember liking that once upon a time.

     

    not kotor, mass effects, nor even fallout 3 and new vegas past what mentioned - fragments, theme, and into-out-of vats vats vats, pickup thing, sell menu, choices... ok.. confirm, fire ants, a radioactive shelter crammed with luggage.

     

    So I'm too weathered, and not 15.

     

    Approaching starfield without weathering of time might be more fun, but an 'unparalled experience'?  it is not.

     

    no mans sky was/is better, as a space simulator - though has an atrocious plot in its playground.

     

    kicker - the combat is bad. melee especially. bad, bad, really bad, sub skyrim bad.

     

    i feel like trying out dark and darker.

  6. Homecoming heroes - 

     

    I'm sure you'll agree, when the weather gets nice and stormy, when the wind is finally cold again, and the sky doesn't hurt your eyes - the days end is best met... with steamed puddings and custard.

     

    Now, the process can be adapted! 

    bacon and onion, goats cheese,

    raw honey and raisins,

    truffles and mushrooms

    maple syrup and sausage meat innards.

     

    but, best bet is jam.

     

    (psst - its better to use cloth, or even an old shirt sleeve than tinfoil -  which is why its sometimes called 'shirt sleeve pudding' or 'dead man's leg')

     

    if you want to be extra tasty, you may fry the slices in butter (or lard).

     

    apply custard, liberally.

     

     

    bacon and onion

     

     

    It won't make you fat if you're not a super piggy and eat it every day.

     

    enjoy!

  7. ^ probably because they made the form change instant (good).

     

    ive never done that - linked a bind to

    1>drop form

    2> use power from dropped form

    3>re-enter form

    allowing you to skip anim time on the ghost power ordering shouldnt allow but implementation does.

     

    so theres the cancel and immediate cast.

     

     @Laucianna has videos and actual bind commands.

     

    you could do this with the tank form to with its relevant skills, on all your skills where theres form shifting or can be, to cheat in the changeover...

     

    ...thats definately cheating spirit of letting khelds change form insta, and conceptually shows as so in bind commands you'd create to exploit the behavior.

     

    because its clear your referring to the past (a power from a form youre not in) as part of a chain to avoid cast time.

     

    probably next Figs - psi melee / dark stalker (to hurt for/with khelds)

  8. mid level report on fire/mental

     

    Figs lvl 28

    Figs - who is mildly imbalanced

     

    positioning for everything is improved by combat tp, night and day versus running about for cones:

     

    /bind ` powexec_location target combat teleport

     

    /bind shift+` powexec_location 180:30 combat teleport

     

    - fire damage is, as always, ludicrously good. blazing bolt, blaze, fire blast under hasten are st

    - fire breath does amazing damage across its ticks

     

    - mind probe is super quick and hits hard (this over subdual). will definately take the final melee.

    - 🔮 psychic scream 😱 hits wide and hard, good for winter set proc that adds an Immobilize. 

    - between psychic scream, fireball, rain of fire and fire breath available a lot, and supplemented with inferno (and psychic shockwave to come in a few levels)... aoe of this pairing is exceptional.

     

    - drain psyche works best because of combat tp. ` -> youre positioned, shift+` -> your now at a spot to fire a cone at the target you ported to.

    That's why.

     

    tripe.

     

    whining about not being able to define a closet for people to throw them in, and decrying 'current day sensibilites' as a 'departure from traditional values', 'wokeism', and to quote further 'like traditional marriages and two sexes'.

     

    i was waiting to hear phrase bingo with: 'radical left', 'deep state', and 'perfect phonecall'

     

    just pick he/him and be done with it? because, they'll then refer to you as he/him.  likewise with other choices.

     

    to link exclusion with 'escapism' is quietly asking 'why can i not be a biggot in your media?'

     

    which, is silly, and desperately selfish... indeed, harmful. it is not enviable of a (hu)man, to wish to vector harm.

  10. has anyone had positive experience in starfield? the reviews im hearing are less than enthusiastic.

     

    i get its not eve online, mo mans sky, star citizen (and no ty)... but was hoping itd remind of fallout.

     

    xbox big boss said its similar to oblivion, and that was a good game.

     

    space combat looks like something from privateer (origin), pace wise.

     

    i dont care about bugs past crashing constantly, which it doesnt seem to do.

     

    but bad story... thats problematic.

     

    few days is xbox game pass.

  11.  

    more manly tho... and a crazy lady tortured him, cut all that off. scary comics. i dont think juuzou has pronouns, in that theyd not occur to him.

     

    razor rhamon has pronouns.  adam in the garden of eden he/him. takes what he wants he/him.

    Imagine that the options were instead to choose Catholic or Baptist, and that decision factored into the gameplay to some degree, (for instance assuming your character was a devout follower).  Would you be happy with that, or would you prefer such assumptions about your character be left out?  

     

    Catholic, obviously. the rest are literally derivative.

     

    but being able to choose nothing, but man with beard strong, woman with curvaceous hips, 💋 kisses - no persona, thatd be restrictive.

     

    non sex affirming gender pronoun choice is only going to present if you elect to choose it.

     

    its like being upset mcdonalds exists when youve no intention of eating there, just dont go in. maybe not burn it down.

     

    ...take character creation in cyberpunk, you can have no bits and pieces whatsoever, or have the reverse you might expect... in baldurs gate you can elect for ritualistic genital surgery options, and even sex bears 🐻, actual ursine bears 🐻. and demons.  thats ungodly, AND dangerous.

     

    (the mind flayer tentacles are erogenous areas, I know, well Figs knows. he only sexes demons and bears in Faerûn, no humans, no women. only demons and bears. maybe vampires, but the guys a prick.)

    he I don't think you understand what "escapism" means.

     

    looking in a mirror, and so that beholder sees; wishing it were a looking glass, peering beyond and through, maybe nodding away in imaginations?  what is or should be barred in such a vision?

  14. Just now, biostem said:

    IMO, it's more about the "you put your RL in my escapism" part. 

     

    the inverse, to strip RL from escapism, is exactly what enforces loneliness, isolation and spiral of ostracisms.

     

    you could pick he/him, and be done with it?

    the real reason that I won't be buying it is because I agree with Heelvsbabyface

     

    he screamed about a lot of things in his video - what part in particular? gender pronouns? 

     

    its a thing younger than me, but the truth of the matter is - sometimes people go through life being thrown mud at for all sorts of things.

     

    their skintone, the fact that they might entertain 'race mixing' and inter-racial pairings, ritualized genital surgeries weeks or days after birth, pink-is-for-girls and blue-is-for-boys, forced marriages at crazy low ages, forced pregnancies, prejudice on pretty much anything - often based on nothing but the superstitions and clime of the locale.  and this in the USA, not a taliban run far off depotism.  hell, if you have red hair you have no soul, and there's people who can measure and assign that too!

     

    heels shouted a lot at a microphone, to an aging audience, of something-something-wow-maybe-relevant-2005.

     

    <--- But starfield, not Bethesda's finest --->

    ---> and that has nothing to do with allowing a player to feel comfortable in their skin behind the screen - one of the few places they might get the chance.  see, people get up randomly on forums and announce they feel against x, y or z. you know, because... the guy who sells magazines in disco elysium. they're all over, sadly.

     

    that kind of inclusion, that allows a person to feel themselves - it pierces loneliness, and makes slightly less scary the crazy man from an old mmo jeering at a person.  it is important, to be kind.  Its christian, its buddhist, its of a good alignment, it is to be of a mind in charity, and in one that extends a hand.

     

    to hell with awful sentiment.  it be damned, and our lungs filled with vigor in the expelling of it.

     

    from a similar time ago.  is crona a boy or a girl? they fight good, why'dja give a shit?

  16. in honor of our poll, sorta, i settled after hours of indecision on fire/mental/will-be-firey

     

    already the cones double up is messing stuff.

     

    combat tp, stupid-kick/tough/weave, hasten, no travel.

     

    character is named: Figs likes custard 🍮😋

     

    the good kind, powdered. made right. thick, like best hot soup.

     

    maybe with jam roly-poly, if your sophisticated, or sticky toffee pudding... or apricot oat cakes.

    Screenshot_20230903_194425.thumb.jpg.e167379ceba9d39262412578c9f3383d.jpg
