Basically global issues like war and resources and and limited nuclear exchanges and hostile AI cause western governments to collapse. Corporations basically take over the role of governments and with no real checks can basically do whatever they want. The corporations also go to war with each...

In terms of terrain, you could have the Great Lake drained and it basically just be a “desert” area outside the city. You could have rusted cargo ships doting the landscape among various “towns” and water extractors trying to coax the last bits of water from underground

CDPR has previously mentioned that V's story is done, so I don't think they are going to dive into a direct continuation of 2077 from that perspective. Having it take place in some post-apocalyptic style shithole city would also let you bypass some of the corporate fallout from 2077...

Ya those flesh heap fuckers are hard because they run super fast once they enrage and if you have medium/heavy armor you aren’t outrunning them. The trick with them is to kill all the glowing faces on them. Weapons with shrapnel work well or fire/gas weapons or powerful explosives, tricky bit...

They have a pretty large and loyal fanbase, so not surprising. Controversy where the streamer looks like the victim also helps. That Harry Potter controversy with Pikmee (she wanted to play the Harry Potter game and terminally online people attacked her and bullied her out of playing it) paid...

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...

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...

RIP

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

Did you register your psn account on it?

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...

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

Invasion of Super Earth event has started

Employee Groups at large employers are pretty common

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

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.

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?"

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...

After seeing that lore excerpt, I now understand why they advertised this game on this forum

Pretty amazing, although I can already predict fears about a Gattaca-like future

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...

Interesting video on the upcoming WoW housing change - refreshing that Blizzard is basically just letting players go wild

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.

I haven't played it, but in watching streamers it feels a little TOO retro in terms of FPS design.

Was it the gloom mutated ones? Those fuckers are tough

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...

I wouldn't be shocked if you don't see a major sale until around the time Larian announces their next big game or the really big custom mod maps hit the internet

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...

As an archaeology nerd, this got me to actually laugh out loud. Well played

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...

Just saw an update - preorder people were making a ruckus about not getting invited so they will be giving beta access to people who preordered

Supposedly they are going out in waves
