    I lean more this. For all that was happening, the film felt like wheel-spinning most of the time. 

    Thank you..

    Ant Man has some of the most charming characters ever put on screen, you could let Pena and Rudd play off each other for the entire movie sitting in an empty room and I'd at least be entertained.. it just moved slowly, had too little of the fun and next to no action.. maybe it's amplified by my wife and son both being bored and wanting to leave.

    Elder scroll games I have yet to finish.  The problem is I put so much time into the doing everything that I burn out and buy a new game.

    I'm the worst with them, I finished Skyrim, and I'm like I'm going to go try a whole new class.. pick up bow, put the exact same skills in the exact same places and end with one shotting dragons with my arrows..  going to do a mage this time I swear... nope.

    The Dolby features of STV are so far behind it’s disgusting.

    No Dolby Vision or Atmos, even with “full uncompressed” audio you still don’t get the surround quality of Atmos.

    :rolleyes:

     

    Uncompressed audio means absolutely nothing when the OP is focused on internet streaming and not ripping everything to their PC. ATV can stream MKV files through the VLC app, btw.

    You are aware Shield has had Atmos since 2016 right?

    VIsion is only an incremental update to HDR10 which Shield supports, in fact it's little more than just extra information that insures compatibility so it's hardly a killer feature when you're pairing it with less apps, less options, and crappy compressed audio.  They had 3 friggen generations since the Shield came out and that's really all you got?

    Since when does Shield TV support Dolby Vision? :confused:

    The Audio features on ATV are so far behind its digusting.

    No DTS, even with Atmos it's only the crap lossy DD+ version.

     

    Shield has full uncompressed Audio support, and fuck having a 4K box that can't handle MKV video.

    ^ I feel like Mackenzie Davis is in a weird spot in her career. People who pay attention to movies know she’s a fantastic actor but hasn’t yet gotten the roles or recognition to warrant huge paydays. She’s like one role away from breaking out imo and if this movie is even above average I think this’ll do it. 

     

    I was not aware of her before Black Mirror but she really stood out (as did that entire episode),  It's just hard to look at such a beautiful woman sport a bowl cut.

    There's classes?  Public multi games with classes often run into balance issues.  Any risk of that here?  Concern over one class with a competitive advantage based on abilities becoming preferred?

     

    There are minor advantages early on, an example would be hunters can roll, assassins can blink (shoot forward even through a small opening), and Mages can fly like superman for about 3-4 seconds...  if two people land outside of a house and rush for the weapons those 3 will get there faster with that built in ability,  Warriors and Engineers jump REALLY high so they can't rush in for the weapons but if they choose to land in an area with two story buildings they can immediate get up to a balcony and get to goods faster.. so it does mostly balance out.

     

    Now later game once you're decked out with your special weapons it depends on proximity,  Assassins and Hunters and Mages will be better fighting with some distance as Hunter gets a bow, Assassin a Sniper Rifle and the Mage a Staff (they are elemental so the element they get from the forge randomly also impacts the amount and type of damage).  The Engineer and Warrior are much more in your face fighters, Warrior gets a throwing axe and Engie a plasma cannon that does is much like a grenade launcher.   Overall it will come down to skill, timing and how you approach the situation and any minor imbalance that exists is pretty much nullified by skill.   The Hunter is considered the weakest by far yet all of my wins have been with her.

    It's coming to Xbox One soon. I'm intrigued. It lookslike Fortnite but without the shitty building mechanic. I'll have to check it out before all the 9 year olds fuck it up.

     

     

    That's my feelings, I HATE the building in FN.

    I also think the mounts on demand make getting around better and keep the pace up a bit

    To me the big difference is the classes and abilities that just makes it more interesting, you need different tactics depending on what class you are up against.

     

    Also another good move they did was Paladins made you sign up for a High Res account, RR just uses Steam and your Steam friends list.

  8. You should check it out, it's free and there are two things that put it above others that make it a bit more started friendly.

    There is a Training Deathmatch mode that lets you respawn and get a feel for the game (it was taken out in the last patch because they are reworking it but it will be back soon) and secondly while the down mechanic exists in other BR games it's reserved for Team play and a team member has to revive you, in this one you get 3 chickens and when they down you they have to also kill your chicken form which you have control of, if you can pull off an escape and evade them for 20 seconds you will be revived (it's rare you can survive as they will hunt you down but I have managed to pull it off 2-3 times)

  9. Game appears to be growing quite well, all of my favorite Overwatch pros have moved to it almost exclusively so I can't be alone in thinking the game is incredible.

    I loved PUBG but felt it performed like dookie and trying to play it on a laptop was pretty much a no go,  Fortnite came around and I loved how it performed and looked I just HATE the building and it annoyed me enough to make me check out something else to get my fix.

     

    I enjoyed Paladins even if it was a poor mans overwatch but upon hopping into Realm Royale (that was originally Paladins Realm Royale) it's clear all of their resources are going into this game, it's polished, well designed and a ton of fun IMO.  The Class System with Abilities and ability to craft legendary weapons unique to your class give it a unique feel and it helps keep the action going because people don't just move to the next safe zone they move to the nearest forge to improve their gear (and you're going to do better by engaging as you need to kill people to collect the Chicken Trophies you need to craft a legendary class weapon, as well as enough shards by breaking down loot you don't need, to get enough you're either going to have to scour an entire village or kill 1-2 people and destroy their stuff).

     

    I'm having a blast solo but I'm hoping to build up a list of people who play as Duos are where it's at and my friends seem to be interested but getting them to actually download and try it has been a chore,  I've started twitch streaming even though I have  a face that's only fit for Radio and a Voice that's only fit for print... but I had a good run last night so if you want to see how it plays, check it out.
