This christmas was mostly spent being zombied out on 0 sleep, falling asleep whild grinding in vidya, or dead asleep while playing only to wake up and keep gaming. Insane, I know. I had to do it though, I was gong to get the skibidi toilet skin and maybe the incredibile with my saved up in game currency from the prior seasons but the snoop dogg sled emote and christmas cadillac were far too up my alley of "stupid insane shit" and then I realized the sled emote was leaving the shop ON CHRISTMAS for some reason because the dates shit cycles out is all fucked up for some reason this year. The cadillac wasn't supposed to leave the shop till january but then it just randomly vanished for weeks only to come back with no announcement other than"oh there's a limited santa snoop dogg skin for it now" as if it never left the shop for like almost a fucking month.
Anyways after grinding to the point I could afford both and only both because xp is ass this season, I decked myself out in full niggaclaus fashion and took to the streets to kill sweaty fuckers only to realize the bot problem is so fucking severe now the game has become borderline unplayable. You're either getting braindead bots with weirdly intense accuracy once they click onto your position or you're dealing with sweats and/or hackers doing some fucked up slide hop shit and crouch running into you bizzarely faster than you can crouch walk. No they don't have the speed buffs they just like run at me while crouching sometimes and I mean like they move FAST.been noticing more and more bots every fucking match since they re-enabled them and that's not a good thing given I technically should be out of the bot servers with how long I survive in matches and how many of these things I've been icing per round.
The main BR mode genuinely seems to be giving so little fucking XP it's ridiculous, Rocket racing too or maybe that's just me? Anyways I can't even win in rocket racing because suddenly i'm constantly either in 4th or 12th when before I was usually in 1st or 4th when they initially added it. Been spinning out a lot more in a glitchy kind of way and one match I was somehow in 12th the whole race despite none of the cars other than me and 2 others moving off the starting line. It's not a wifi/internet connection thing because the matches that shit's happened in it always happens the same, it's like somehow the majority of the lobby is ahead of us but the few real players keep phasing through the glitched starting line cars that are all in 1st. I'm guessing it's the hacker issue spreading to other lesser modes for that and either me being rusty or them genuinely fucking up the physics in one update during the seasons I didn't play RR. Most of my XP comes from the lego modes and BR quests now, sometimes save the world if I'm feeling awake enough. They seem to be the only modes that genuinely give decent XP anymore.
Oh no Pepper what have they done to you. You should have stayed in Lego island doing kickflips and shoving pizza in people's faces.
It's clearly a "modernized" stylization kind of like rocket racer or other lego game characters that returned in recent years. Not as bad as some but you'd think they'd give him like the mid level legs due to the fact he's supposed to be a kid who has trouble reading lmao.
I've been trying to find him in the fucking gamemodes he hasn't shown up once for me.
Speaking of rocket racer and fortnite the rocket racing logo is literally just the rocket racer logo from lego minus the fire with a checker flag pattern emulating the fire in the position the flame would be. They fucking knew what they were doing.
