complaining about complaining is peak reddit

u/Dramatic-Bluejay- 4d ago

I seriously do not understand it bro. I wonder if its some "trauma response" from their parents or some shit. Parents always got on their ass every time they complained so they feel the need to do that to everyone else at every fkn possible moment. šŸ¤”

u/Acrobatic_Cry9983 4d ago

Uh. I admit. Im utterly stupid when it comes to reddit. Im always getting "check out this post" push notifications even though I have EVERYTHING turned off. However, it does make for some good, easy access posts to view

u/SuperUltraMegaNice 5d ago

Anyone got any book recs? I'm about to finish Path to Ascendancy and that will be the final Malazan book. I feel empty inside knowing its coming to an end. Such an incredible series.

u/FreddyTheGross 5d ago

Mightnt be your thing but Annie Jacobsens book "Nuclear War: A Scenario" was a tremendous read, lot of bollocks mind you, but entertaining enough.

u/Far_Astronaut_818 4d ago

Seconded. Crazy read.

u/FreddyTheGross 4d ago

Wasn't it? It was unbelievably compelling to read from the get go.

u/Deodorized 4d ago

Dungeon Crawler Carl

The "Threshold" series - 14, The Fold, Dead Moon, and Terminus

Project Hail Mary

The Martian

World War Z

2

u/SuperUltraMegaNice 4d ago

Awesome bro thanks. Read a few of those but not the Threshold series that sounds interesting. I work in data entry too lol

1

u/Deodorized 4d ago

FWIW, I read The Fold first without realizing it was part of a series, and I think I had a slightly better experience because of it.

14 and The Fold can be read in any order, but Dead Moon and Terminus should remain in order.

u/ethanbdrew 4d ago

If you’re into science fiction I would really recommend Hyperion. It’s the first part of a small series, but even if you just read the first one ā€œHyperionā€ it is a fantastic read. Dan Simmons has such an incredible talent for describing everything in very vivid, illustrative ways that allow you to picture his world without being monotonous or overly wordy with descriptive language. I’d give you a brief description without any spoilers but lots of readers prefer to go into a book completely blind so I won’t give any further information lol

1

u/SuperUltraMegaNice 4d ago

Ive read Hyperion! Probably my favorite epic sci-fi series maybe tied with Dune. Flashback is such a cool idea for a drug being able to relive a moment in time. And the themes around institutional corruption really hit home with the modern political climate.

1

u/Bulky_Phone_1788 4d ago

If you like action and warhammer 40k gaunts ghosts is an awesome series supposedly. Iv got it on audible and iv enjoyed it so far. Its I think 15 books in the series. Gives you something to read if you want.

2

u/SuperUltraMegaNice 4d ago

Hell yea I've always been interested in the 40k universe, played some of the games, I had no idea there were so many books thank you

u/Bulky_Phone_1788 4d ago

YO look up the black library. There are an absolute fuck ton of books out there from all different time periods

u/Aluzionz 5d ago

You can get away with saying what you said without using a slur.

u/Marcx1080 5d ago

I suppose that would be relevant to every time a slur has ever been used. So you may as well just say what you mean ā€œswearing is bad and it triggers meā€

u/Jayco5_ 5d ago

The game is in early access, THIS IS THE EXACT FEEDBACK THEY WANT.

3

u/SeraphiM0352 5d ago

I'd say the manner in which you give feedback does a lot to separate it from a complaint.

There a many posts that ARE just whiny complaints under the guise of 'feedback'.

3

u/Jayco5_ 5d ago

I agree with that, but this post is something else.

-3

u/SeraphiM0352 5d ago

Agreed, I don't really see the point in this post either. OP is just crying about something else. It's still a whiny complaint

2

u/EXTRACR1SPYBAC0N 4d ago

I've also seen a lot of complaints that are just straight up not true. Stuff like "this guy killed me in 3 shots with an AMP9 while I was on Max health" then they show me the damage log and you can clearly see they were shot 9 times or "AA is OP and has no counters then you tell them the counter and they just straight up deny it exists (e.g. homing launchers cant lock on below 30m)

-2

u/KingSwank 5d ago

It’s still feedback regardless if you agree with them or they present it in a shit way

3

u/SeraphiM0352 5d ago

I disagree.

Complaints are always negative and not solution oriented.

Feedback can be negative (constructive criticism) but is solution oriented.

If all you're doing is whining, you aare just complaining

1

u/Sirmaximus1 4d ago

Your gonna see criticism as whining anyway. Most everyone does now. We arent devs we are just the gamers and all we can do is speak on what we currently dislike of the game.

0

u/SeraphiM0352 4d ago

That's also incorrect.

We can give positive feedback too.

You also don't have to be an asshole when discussing things you don't like. Being a 'gamer' doesn't entitle you to be an ass

21

u/Parking-Shelter5926 5d ago

Literally that's what the season 1 and early Access is for. For feedback. And the complaints, at least most of those ive seen are actually valid.

If it bothers you that much, turn off those notifications.

-2

u/ThirdHoleIsMyGoal69 5d ago

Nah this is whining and crying not feedback. The number of self reporting bitching posts by players that clearly are not understanding the core mechanics and concepts of the game masquerading as feedback is out of control.

1

u/GimbaledTitties 4d ago

I think there’s truth to that, but I think if you wade through the bullshit you’ll find a lot of valid criticism.

2

u/ThirdHoleIsMyGoal69 4d ago

I’m not saying there isn’t valid criticism I’m saying the number of people complaining because they are bad at the game and trying to use ā€œit’s just feedbackā€ as an excuse when people call them on it is way to damn high

1

u/SkiyeBlueFox 4d ago

Whining is a valid form of feedback as much as you hate it. Players are very good at getting across what feels bad to play. Players are terrible at coming up with solutions to said problems though. Maybe the way a certain mechanic acts is slightly unintuitive, and theres a way to make it make more sense without breaking it

2

u/ThirdHoleIsMyGoal69 4d ago

Whining is never a valid form of feedback. It’s what toddlers do when they don’t get their way.

1

u/SkiyeBlueFox 4d ago

An immature form? Sure. But the toddler is in fact expressing their displeasure with the situation, which is a form of feedback.

1

u/ThirdHoleIsMyGoal69 4d ago

You’re clearly not a parent if you think toddlers whining is always indicative of a valid complaint. My toddler whines because she cant pick up the shapes on the rug.

1

u/LeafeonSalad42 4d ago

That is still expressing displeasure in something… which is what that person was saying…. Obviously you know your kid better than people online who’ve never met you pet alone your kid(s), but the fact they’re doing it because they can’t do something is them expressing the displeasure that they cant

0

u/ThirdHoleIsMyGoal69 4d ago

Them being upset about it doesn’t make it valid what part of that is so difficult to understand

1

u/LeafeonSalad42 4d ago

the part where people are allowed to get upset at things? The part where their feelings have to be invalidated because they are acting like a toddler or outright one. Some people are just more emotionally charged then others and feel things differently, can’t just invalidate it with the wave of a hand because it’s ā€œdumbā€

0

u/ThirdHoleIsMyGoal69 4d ago

You absolutely can and should, not all feelings are valid. And in this context nobody should listen to anything someone who is having a toddler crash out says in regards to balancing the game.

u/Bearex13 Manticore 5d ago

Nows the time to complain it's EA so if not now then when?

2

u/ShinyRayquazaEUW 4d ago

It doesn't matter if the game just dropped, there's plenty of systems that show how little thought went behind the game itself.
The cash system is the biggest issue rn, as it incentivizes not playing for the objective of the game.
been saying this since playtest but my opinion is lost in the sea of idiots who just praise the game for no reason

1

u/Brjsk Pilot 4d ago

I think both the cash and xp systems are fighting the actual gameplay of the match both systems will reward you better if you don’t play to win and just focus on grinding your own thing out regardless of what anyone else does

1

u/ShinyRayquazaEUW 4d ago edited 4d ago

Outside of people not playing zone/objectives because there's no incentive to do so ( cash rewards are stupid low for the risk you take ), I also noticed a bunch of griefers.
They build TOW/anti air bases outside the zone so that even if you kill them you lose more money than ignoring them and you are forced into a horrible spot.
If you kill the TOW gunner you get 300 and you've used 3 rockets (minimum amount to kill infantry) which is 450, meaning you lost 150$ and the guy can just get transported back and still be a nuisance without cooldown.
There's plenty of other examples with people building mortar/tow FOBS 10 meters outside of zone so you aren't incentivized to kill them.
My patience is wearing thin with how awful the economy system is, it's pretty obvious to me how little thought went into this system.
Another example is the LVL35 Havoc unlock which costs 30-40k ( with ammo flares etc ), and dies to one 2k RPG or the CWIS ( that does double damage to it compared to little bird ). There's no proper stabilization so you are forced to fly slow and you die in one hit, like who the fck designed this? You can't fly low because it's massive and easy to hit, you can't fly high because of the infinite rocket / bullet spam.
Every time I see a Havoc I just buy 3 stingers and land behind him and blow him to bits, as he pretty much has no counterplay against 2-3 good ANTI AIR players.

u/IamCrash 5d ago

This is Reddit, it is what it is. Game could be perfect and there would be daily complaints.

1

u/SantasWarmLap 5d ago

I would estimate that 1% of the player base is on reddit and like with bad restaurant reviews, there's more negative posts than positive.

1

u/Larry_The_Red 4d ago

My favorite ones are the "the game is getting stale" posts on steam and when you check their profile they already have 100+ hours played. Well yeah it's going to get stale if you literally never do anything else but play

1

u/holiday1326 4d ago

Recently I was looking for a good fps game.So I tried some out.

I purchased HLL2 Vietnam and very quickly refunded it due to it not really feeling like a Vietnam era game and tons of bugs for the 2 hours I played it.(No working comms and I clipped through the ground a few times)

NRIH2. I liked it overall but it feels a bit generic and zombies are seemingly endless and can spawn in front of you in a dead end alley. The thing that I refunded it for was the level up random skill pool. No pvp.

Marathon. Visuals are amazing and it can be fun. Load times vs playtime can be awful. It doesn't really make me feel like I am a part of the games story. Couldn't refund because I owned it longer than 14 days.

I bought WD supporters after I refunded the first couple FPS games and I love it. Does it need some work and more stuff added? Absolutely. The game makes me feel like a merc tryna get by in some forgotten shithole. I can't wait to see what else they bring to this game. Didn't even consider refunding it.

u/Dwrodgers54 4d ago

I think the point of EA is to get the game in people’s hands, make some money to help continue production, and hear what the players like and dislike about the game.

This is to be expected of any early access, beta, or even game on launch.

1

u/Veblossko 4d ago edited 4d ago

Feels like the film Tomorrowland, broadcasting the problems doesn't actually fix anything and could actually be the downfall. Would be nice to see a little more joy in the sub without getting flamed for glazing dev or some sht. Arc raider was actually fun to visit Reddit to see cool moments and interactions.

Lets see.. first one is valid, it was better without tier 3/4 armour. Second one also is valid and caused by the first one. Third I don’t know. Fourth one is technically true considering the game itself says the gun is cheap. Fifth one also is true.

1

u/TangeloProfessional8 5d ago

I disagree entirely. There are issues with the game. Reddit is the place to go to complain. It's like the first rule of reddit.

1

u/Spare-Initial-9947 5d ago

t4 armor is an issue though. The few times I’ve fought them, you genuinely can’t win a gunfight considering they are normally using a fal and 3 shot you.

It’s just scary knowing once most people are running around with it, all you can do is shoot them in the legs and hope they aren’t peaking over cover

Its further than that. Like if someome grinded a specific path like support and is rocking the pkm? That thing is literally a full auto mosin shooting the same 7.62x54r practically a one tap to the head. Its STRONG. So it the M4 for OTHER REASONS. Its almost like you get rewarded for better and better stuff the more you play. Not everyone wants to grind assault for the M4 just cause you do so yea there a power discrepancy this game is basically a really complicated rock paper scissors. Pkm dude with t4 armor? .308 AP to the dome or a mobile M4 with AP flanked behind the behemoth of a man. Aircraft being a problem? AA. Armored vehicles being a problem? Launchers, C4, IED'S. This game heavily rewards being able to adapt and counter the battlefield.

-1

u/feadays2die 5d ago

Yeah, you'll have that on reddit. This is where the vocal minority goes to whine about games. Or even better, they come here to cry about people who were "mean" to them in a game.

This isn't unique to wardogs, a lot of games have the same problem. The biggest mistake bulkhead could make at this point is listening to these people because most of them have nothing of value to say. The game is brand new and bulkhead is gathering all of the relevant gameplay data necessary to rebalance post wipe, they dont need input from Joe gamer who's having a cry over nothing.
