    Nah, I should have worded it better. A little too subtle.

    I must have downloaded the wrong torrent. When does TWD come back from break?

    Black Desert

    Everything in the economy is controlled. Everything you do can be boiled down into a flat rate of average silver per hour. Crafting/trading/drops, it's all the same. It will be even worse for NA with the processing requiring energy bullshit. I've played the game a month and a half in KR, I've...

    XCOM 2

    The first mission isn't that bad, you just have to keep doing it til the rng favors you. I head toward the building facing the bomb placement. The three pack of troopers is usually right in front of it. I move in close, grenade them, then finish them off with flank shots. Then I put a guy on...

    XCOM 2

    It's not poorly tuned, it's just all RNG. In the first mission, no matter how perfectly you play, if the RNG fucks you and you miss too many shots, game over. You're not at war with the aliens, you're actually at war with the random number generator. If you survive long enough for your soldiers...

    XCOM 2

    Mimics are way cheesier than throwing rookies away. I wasn't complaining about aim being too high. I said once your aim gets high enough it negates a lot of the RNG, which makes the game easier. Aim isn't the issue. It took me like 6 tries to get past Gatecrasher. On my successful attempt...

    XCOM 2

    I love it when people feel the need to educate us about shit we already know. I've already completed the game on Vet and Commander and I'm a third or so into my Legend/Ironman campaign. Removing timers wouldn't cheese the game. All time limits do is force you to charge toward the...

    You can't really play the economy since the prices are fixed.

    Yeah, I don't like how the timers severely limit your tactics in a tactical game.

    XCOM 2

    The problem isn't so much the RNG. It's the fact that most of the difficulty is tied to it, in the Aim stat. Once you get your Aim high enough, most of the difficulty is gone. Grenades/rockets already negate the Aim RNG. (Although, I am glad my rockets no longer have a 10% chance to fly in a...

    In both my completed play-throughs I've come across 2 of the +20 hack rewards, so it's at least 120.

    There is zero evidence to support this, other than you saying it repeatedly.

    I'm not positive, but I think Lightning hands uses/negates Quick draw. Which sucks, it should be its own thing. Edit: I think there's a mod that let's you play with after disabling/removing a mod, if you don't want to deal with the ini stuff.

    XCOM 2

    I started my L/I run last night. Came up with a new drinking game during the first mission (which took me like 6-7 tries to complete). Every time a soldier misses a point blank flanked shot, you take a drink. Fun times.

    Got tired of Bradford always bugging me while I'm trying to run a mission, so I decided to throw him into the mix and let him deal with the aliens directly.

    Yeah, there's a reddit thread about that I came across the other day. Capslock is one of my favorite abilities. PSA: Press Caps Lock in the post-mission Skyranger screen to dramatically speed up load times. : Xcom

    No shit, I was referring to shotguns in general, my bad.

    Storm guns are worth mid/late game. Early on, reg rifles are better (THAN SHOTGUNS), IMO. Your accuracy is just too low early game. Edit: Enhanced for the reading impaired.

    I have, on Veteran. You get like 4 turrets set up on the edges of the ramp. Not really needed. On Commander I didn't have them, squadsight from a haywired mec, 2 sniper shots to take out the beacon.

    All that shit will still happen when I start enabling Ironman. 3 playthroughs without Ironman is a very small percentage of my game time. I put well over 1000 hours into EU/EW. Edit: Lol, that vid was great, Gavin. Thx.

    I prefer to do one run through of Vet and Comm while savescumming. My first run on Legend I'll do mission start savescum only. I learn as much or more, and I don't have to redo the early missions 50 times. I will still get all the Comm/Legend Ironman fun times.

    I'm wondering if Psi-ops are bugged. I'm almost positive you're only supposed to get half the skills, not all of them.

    Got a voice-over at one point when I was looking at my recruits. Bradford says something like they received some radio transmissions from some guy named Van Doorn who wanted to join, but that he wasn't Xcom material. Made me chuckle, I hated that whiny fuck.

    I'm pretty sure they didn't have hard drives back then, so at the very least the data would have been on floppy disk. But, the funniest part was how fast he was able to access the information.

    Pretty sure she was new. Clarke, Raven and Bellamy's sis were the only hot chics (of Sky Crew) with real dialogue, iirc.

    The 100

    Bellamy seemed to give zero fucks about her anyway. Finds out she got blown to bits, no reaction. Too worried about getting Clarke to come back with them. Maybe we'll get some emo scenes with him mourning her next ep.

    Marvel's Jessica Jones

    Not quite. It was well established that while not bulletproof, she was pretty damn damage resistant. She takes hits from drugged up supercop, Luke Cage and a fucking van.

    "One of the cool things we do is that once you hit the max level - level 30 - suddenly the whole Dark Zone re-populates with all-new content and challenges suitable to that level.

    Am I the only one who is getting exceedingly irritated that theykeepreferring to Earth1 Wells as if he was actually Wells?

    Black Desert

    There are items you can get from mob drops and fishing (and the AH) that when lined up a certain way in your inventory and clicked on produce a summon scroll. When you use this scroll you automatically get a quest, and and after you defeat the summons the black spirit rewards you. Everyone in...

    I'm pretty sure we were discussing how easy the game gets after the first few months (where all the "difficulty" is really just rng), not bragging about our leet skills.

    XCOM 2

    No, I take my time, since the early months are the most brutal (cuz rng) finishing sooner just meant going back to that meat grinder. I wear skeleton for the extra movement, but my guys rarely take hits unless I'm being lazy. Most pods are dead before they can get a shot off. I run two snipers...
