    Well just got my first major buttfucking from bullshit game mechanics. Enemy lance drops in, gets a free move towards me, then immediately goes into combat and gets to act again and they all focus on my zeus since it never got to act and they knock it down. The pilot ended up dying but I managed...

    TFW you're staring down a thunderbolt, battlemaster, and 7 supporting light mechs and start to sweat a little bit until Glitch one-shots the thunderbolt and the battlemaster on consecutive turns with the gauss rifle. Full battlemaster salvage ain't too shabby, although the hardpoints and spare...

    GL is such a fucking trash game, maybe the retardation of them rerunning the bahamut raid will finally be the incentive I needed to quit.

    I was so happy to get full salvage off a catapult until I realized it's the K2 variant. Does this game even have the standard LRM catapult? I've seen the K2 three times now, have never seen the basic missile boat version.

    I've temporarily kitted out the freebie highlander as a missile boat but with so much tonnage to work with and only two missile hardpoints it's not a very efficient loadout. Ended up filling the remaining tonnage with energy weapons for backup work but with that set of hardpoints a highlander is...

    I got full salvage on the Zeus that attacks you in that mission by just repeatedly knocking it over lol

    TBH I really don't see how they can incentivize small/med mech usage without it being stupid and arbitrary. Mechcommander 2 tried it for a couple missions and it didn't do much, the mission with minefields that wouldn't be set off by light mechs I just took big mechs, avoided the minefields, and...

    Oh. Well I feel slightly better then. Kinda funny how rustled I was about missing out on that Dragon salvage the other day when I've gotten to the point where I can just buy them, which should be all the info I need to know they suck.

    Came within spitting distance of full salvage on a cataphract, but i got too overzealous taking out the last leg and it overkilled into one of the side torsos. So now I've got two cataphract pieces that will rot for god knows how long until I run into another one lol

    iirc it was 10 times, you get 'captured' an extra time in Faith's territory.

    Still woulda been my first heavy. Anyway feels like you should just always negotiate for full salvage unless you're desperate for money to upgrade the argo or in danger of not being able to make payroll. Guarantees you don't miss valuable mech salvage (like that catapult I missed) and the money...

    So apparently this piece of shit game doesn't autosave during combat. Had a story mission going exceptionally well, had made it most of the way through the mission with no wounds and minimal mech damage and I think I managed full salvage on a dragon, which would have been my first heavy mech...

    Figures that right after I make that comment about full salvage being pure luck, my first ever catapult shows up and I get full salvage on it. Except I negotiated the mission for pure c-bills. REEEEEEE Actually seems to happen every time I negotiate a c-bill contract, there ends up being great...

    Try praying to Kerensky before each shot. I'm super happy when I get double salvage on a mech I want, no matter how skilled you get triples will always involve a lot of luck.

    Yeah with the reinforcement bug I've been leery about going any higher than double skull missions. Even 1.5 skulls is a clusterfuck if I have to fight 6 fully armored mechs at once.

    Pit bulls - The Breed of Peace

    They aren't legal to own within any city limits. Even small towns out in the middle of farm country like mine that allow you to have all sorts of animals inside city limits don't allow you to have roosters. I guess 311 means animal control wherever you are, they must have some sort of backlog or...

    woof. +dmg on LRM20s is so OP. I have a pair of LRM20++ but they're both crit/stability. Also don't have anything big enough to mount dual LRM20s without stripping so much armor off of it that a locust could probably bring it down in a single volley.

    Not to mention that due to hardpoint constraints, it's not like you'll be able to change much for a while anyway. This ain't Mechwarrior 3 or Mechcommander 2 where mechs just have a big blank 'tonnage' space that you can stuff whatever you want into it.

    The (according to reddit super frequent) bug where reinforcements spawn immediately instead of after you've already engaged/started destroying the primary target is not something that should have made it through even rudimentary QA. Having to deal with 3 mediums and 3 lights at the same time...

    None can stand before the might of Fyodor Kerensky, a mysterious exile from the deep periphery who commands his forces as if it were his birthright. Headcanon is fun.

    All this Battletech talk makes me want to fire Mechcommander 2 back up. Just wish LRMs weren't so absurdly overpowered (and borderline mandatory).

    Sounds like poor AI. From the point of view of the pilot of the enemy mechs the convoy escort is the threat, not the convoy. Once the escort has been taken out I can destroy the convoy at my leisure. My objective should be to survive my mission, not kamikaze just to make the other guy fail his.

    Venom (2018)

    Eh, I think it can work fine. I mean yeah it's weird not having the Spiderman tie-in, but Brock was constantly going back and forth between villain and anti-hero so jumping straight to an anti-hero version of him isn't that big of a stretch, even if most of his time as an anti-hero was while...

    Venom (2018)

    Do you have even the slightest familiarity with comic books? Sandman's origin was more or less straight out of the comics as well, as was his appearance. Cletus Kasady was a 140 pound serial killer that became Carnage when the Venom symbolbiotic gave birth.

    Venom (2018)

    What? Spiderman 3's Venom origin was basically straight out of the comics. I'm a little fuzzy on the specifics since I've mostly blocked that awful movie out, but Brock repeatedly gets screwed by Peter and/or Spiderman, is webbed down below when Spiderman forces his way out of the symbolbiotic...

    Vermintide 2

    That's the biggest problem though, weapons that are bad against armor are generally just bad. Hell I didn't even know about glaive push attack because spamming lights gets the job done too. I mean Kruber effectively has three melee weapons that do it all, hammer, halberd, and exsword. Obviously...

    Vermintide 2

    I feel like the glaive isn't insane compared to the weapons other heroes have, it's just insane compared to her mostly shitty repertoire. I think the real issue is that they dramatically changed things and the rest of her weapons did not translate well at all. She also no longer has the...

    I didn't do any of the stunts, I'll go back at some point and give them a try along with some of the arcade content. I have to say the endings aren't nearly as bad as you guys led me to believe they would be. The secret ending is just a lame ripoff of what they did in Far Cry 4. The super...

    Oh didn't realize it was a full patch, guess they changed more than just the handgun. Dunno how big of a nerf to the falchion that is since I was never doing light attacks to armor/chaos warriors anyway. Depending on how much better 1h axe is against hordes it might be viable to carry one on...

    Faith's territory seemed so weird and out of place in the setting. Everything to do with Bliss is basically flat out magic, especially Faith herself. I get that they like to put some more abstract stuff in their games to mix it up, but I felt like her territory belonged in Witcher 3, not Far Cry...

    charged attack just means aiming right? weird that they would call that 'charged attack' but i guess universal terminology for using RMB. Seems like a potential improvement for a halberd/exsword FK since you already handle hordes well with your melee weapon, you're basically trading off the...
