games like xcom are literally fucking rigged though

Why is probablility the biggest midwit filter in existence?

im bad at math ok
>>
>>741818243
failing a 95% chance action more than 5 times might as well be 0

but in general people only understand 0%, 50%, and 100%. like all the retards who gloated about the "hillary has a 90% chance to win" predictions

It's funny because XCOM is actually rigged in favor of the player

>>741817794
Games do in fact lie about probability, all the time.

sid's retarded lying to the player about %s has a contradictory effect.
Also why tabletop mechanics just don't belong in video games.

Aesthetic deception at play

Assuming the events are independent, the probability of failing such an action 10 times in a row is:
(0.05)^10 = 0.00000000000009765625
OP must have been extraordinarily unlucky for this to happen.

I hate when games like Pokemon have seeds that predetermine the success of actions. I know it prevents savescumming in a lot of cases, but whatever. Just let me have fun with my convoluted strategy.
>>
The OG Fallout games had anything below 89% be in actuality 50% and less and anything above that be almost 100%.
Which is why it was always good to have grenades in your inventory so that you didn't need accuracy to score damage.

>my character has a 99.23% chance to dodge all incoming hits at base
>is wearing a legendary item that says "should any damage be fatal, you have a 99% chance to evade death and have your life be set to 1 instead. this chance is equal to your dodge chance.
>there are no realtime logs but every map I complete says I've taken a small amount of damage every fucking map
I dont understand what is happening here. a 1% chance of a 1% chance is 1 in 10,000. that's less chance than finding a shiny in pokemon and it's actually a 1% chance of a 0.77% chance

He is in prison forever now :(

he has a hearing next month from jail
his plot armor is ridiculous for a violent crackhead lolcow tho, could go either way at this point
>>
>>741820535
Why would the chance to evade death affect the normal damage you take that isn't fatal?

Actually wait typing this I just realized taking damage itself isn't 1 in 10000, it's just a ~1 in 100 chance so that makes more sense
It's still bullshit that it's happening every map tho you dont get hit that often unless you're standing still
>>
>>741819891
yeah true, there was about a 50% chance of being born in East Asia..

Well, you also probably take hundred of hits, before evasion, without realizing it.

i know the sample size is small but still seems pretty unlucky
