    Helldivers II

    Crossbow and a MG stratagem works well for the landed ships. Pop the shield with the mg, then a single crossbow shot into the open door insta kills the ship Hornet launcher is useful too - makes shooting down the jetpack guys easier since they constantly move around. 2-3 darts will take them...

    Helldivers II

    Those missions are tough - the longer ships stay up, the more shit that spawns. They usually land in clusters or 2 or 3. The lander ships do show up on the map. Main goal is killing the ships, once you deplete reserve ships and landed ship quota is done, mission is complete splitting your...

    Not as great as you imagine it up be. Fallout 76 is kind of MMO lite and only has prox voice chat. People have begged for text chat because a) not everyone uses mics b) it’s easier to coordinate via text when you’re trying to get an entire server to go to one specific location

    Helldivers II

    Zombies you usually want aoe weapons. Since you barely played I presume you don’t have much in way of warbond weapons or strategems, which would make it hard. The light machine gun stratagem might be good then - lots of ammo, can use it as a primary weapon mostly, and is good at dropping...

    Helldivers II

    One cool part is there are other NPC soldiers and you can give them orders like follow, hold and they will even inject you with stims at times when you get injured They get overrun easily - I had a squad hold a spot and as I left like 30 zombies overran them lol

    Yup. Like that game Once Human, I made some friends in the game during one season and we coordinated our move to the next season Granted there was attrition as people stopped playing, but that happens in any game, MMOs included

    Baldur's Gate 3 by Larian Games

    You can, but you get a better ending if you do side quests I dunno when they added it, but I found a happy Karlach ending during a recent play through I did with the unrestricted party size mod 1) Had Orpheus become the mindflayer 2) had Wyll bring Karlach to hell and I stayed 3) at the...

    You can’t self regulate trolls in global chat beyond blocking them in some cases. New World is constantly a situation where someone intentionally drops racial slurs or call people gamer words and the server mass reports them and they get a 3 day chat ban, although that’s common in any PvP...

    In one save I cut a deal with Gortash after I killed Orin - you have to be firm with the “you keep your stone, I keep mine” offer otherwise he thinks you’re weak. As long as you don’t try to go to the underwater prison or fuck with the foundry, he is onboard with the deal. However if you...

    Gortash and the keep goes KOS on you if you a) Assault the steel watcher foundry b) travel to the underwater prison - those are dealbreakers for him. If you don't do that, then he is still willing to cut a deal and the keep/Gortash won't be KOS yet.

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    The biggest issue you run into there is FOMO and loss of agency. Even if you create new content to replace the old, newer players will forever miss out on content that is now gone and eventually complain/demand "fresh start" servers. And if player actions determine the server, you'll run into...

    I dunno, I still feel like Riot's project might end up as Project Titan 2.0: They probably tried to make something more unique, but started to question "is it actually fun?"

    World of Warcraft: Current Year

    MMOs in a manner of speaking have already been redefined a bit. The closest approximation would probably be action games with RPG-like elements where you have more than 20ish players running around at the sametime where ever you are, with even more at central hubs. Of course you might argue...

    Marathon (Bungie)

    Drama aside, I think Arc Raiders would probably be a huge reason why they might delay. They really seemed to hit that sweet spot that appeals to both casuals and sweats. If Arc Raiders drops this summer or early fall and Marathon released relatively close to the state it was during the...

    I haven't seen the accusations, but a lot of these "stolen story" lawsuits end up being complete bullshit because a) its clear the original author stole ideas from elsewhere themselves b) it's Nintendo Lawsuit against Palworld level crap "Omg, my story has people flying on alien creatures and...

    The Astronomy Thread

    Interesting hypothesis related to the Fermi Paradox - Mitochondria and the creation of eukaryotes was effectively a fluke, so it may not be a guaranteed outcome on other planets even if life or even simple multicellular life is quite common

    There is a chest slider which makes tits bigger and an ass slider. No body type 1 or 2 either - you pick a premade to start modifying and they're all clearly male/female options even though they aren't labeled.

    Dune Awakening

    Game has a true tutorial intro and then a guided early game option. Tutorial is the basic how to move/climb/fight/ access locked shields/stay in the shade, then you get dumped into the actual game map For actual game start, you have the option of guided start or advanced. Guided start locks...

    Ya, I liked it enough for the limited play we got. I do like that the sandworm is a legitimate threat if you stay on the open sand too long and you still need to be mindful of staying in the sun too long. Before beta ended I got eaten by the worm and ended up in some Freman afterlife where I...

    They were doing maint patch a bit ago edit: People online were complaining about the mini gun dudes with shields - they aren't too hard to beat once you understand them. I figured out a bunch of ways to deal with them: 1) Use a stun ability then run up and slow stab them, then run away before...

    That works - globe of invuln + runepowder bomb also clears the room pretty fast Best part of that fight is if you fuck Harlep and they let you ask them any question, if you select the "is Raphael any good in bed?" one, you get a bonus dialogue before fighting Raphael where he says "killing you...

    The Long Walk (2025)

    The story was written in the 70s and it takes place in an alternate timeline. I haven't read the short story in probably 20 years, all I remember is it was basically an oppressive regime controlling the US and things were really shitty for lots of people and people signed up for this because...

    The Long Walk (2025)

    Presuming traditional movie structure, we probably spend 30 minutes establishing world and characters, 15 minutes after that until first death after the build dread/anxiety, next 30-40 minutes ramping up, then final 30 focusing on the last surviving characters
