    Tom Clancy's The Division

    Reposting from earlier: grind the united nations mission on hard until you're kitted in full purples, it's like minimum 8 per run and it's stupid easy even with poverty gear. Then move on to the tunnel mission on challenging, you'll be grinding this for a while. Somewhere around like 100-120k...

    Yea you're looking at something more commercial grade to cover a house that size. Using consumer level shit from Best Buy or whatever you're going to need several access points via powerline adapters or some such nonsense/

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    It's mostly a gear thing, yea. In Lincoln there's no runners, only the melee chumps, and no heavies either, so it's far easier for fresh 30s and ungeared people to just flail through it. You get relatively safe positions for all the fights as well so you can take as long as you need to pick...

    Enter the Gungeon

    I got to play this a bunch at PAX last year, and even the build from back then was a blast to play. Really looking forward to this. I do kind of wish it had better multiplayer, as it mostly uses the Isaac system where P2 steals a life from P1 and spawns in as a one health guy with a shitty...

    I'll grind out some lincoln tonight if anyone wants in. I'm probably pretty close to being able to solo it at this point so can carry whoever if you're fresh to 30. PC obviously, @ Obsequey.

    He Never Died - with Henry Rollins

    Him just straight up telling her is the problem, it just feels far too direct. It's like he's not telling her, he's telling the audience, just in case they had somehow not already figured it out/assumed.

    Yep. I can't even get the division to stay at a stable 60 on ultra with a 980 ti at 1440p.

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    DZ can be fun, but seems the last few days the hacker population has just exploded. Maybe it was just a run of bad luck, but since like wednesday going up to DZ6 is just instant death from 100+ meters, people teleporting to all the division tech crates, etc.

    A single 970 cannot run everything "nicely" at 1440p. Even a 980ti dips below 60 on the division/witcher 3 at max settings and 1440p.

    Yea that happens more and more these days. There's no real cure for it either besides just joining matchmaking over and over and hoping to get dumped in to a working instance.

    He Never Died - with Henry Rollins

    This was actually pretty fucking awesome. They went a tad heavy handed with the Cain stuff, felt like it would have worked better if it was more understated/implied rather than just, you know, saying it. Also putting it in the trailer is a shit idea.

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    I finally got around to testing that trapped cover mod and can confirm, it's fucked and works backwards. My scan with the increased damage vs scanned targets produces M4 headshots of about 350-380k depending on what you're shooting. Using cover + trapped M4 headshots are in the 420-450k range...

    Marn is a complete shitbag, but he's so fucking hype to watch I can't help it. Mika will get exposed as the game ages and Marns style of bullshit will stop working at the high-end. She's a fucking meatgrinder for online play though. It's like you're playing Marvel and everyone else is stuck...

    What do you do?

    It's far more the norm/acceptable in IT than most other places. Even still, more than like once a year/18 months gets a little silly as you've barely had time to even learn anything or build new skills in a lot of positions by then.

    Hmm haven't played with the cover one before. How big are the boosts? More than using scan?

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    Works for police backpack as well to double your ammo. He's likely using the recovery talent on some high end items where it heals for 2% of max health per second after getting hit with a status effect. If you flashbang yourself it bugs out and just stays on until you switch instances.

    Can confirm, every experience with a combo unit has been ass. That said, maybe they're better these days, last time I tried one was like 5 years ago?

    Onoes made a lan party desk and wants to sell it.

    Actually a pretty epic idea, because yea bar-cades are fucking huge these days. I can think of at least 2 places in Chicago that would jump at this to turn it in to like a snes/mame emulator box.

    Alright time to try and set up this consulate farm, who else is on PC tonight? Should be able to find me @ obsequey. I tried adding some of you from this thread but seems like a lot of you are on PS4, so need more PC people to get this rolling.

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    Batman being in nofucksgiven mode is the least of this movies problems. I may be a bit biased though as Thomas Wayne Batman is best Batman.

    Onoes made a lan party desk and wants to sell it.

    That thing may be a bit harder to quantify donation-wise. Most items you'd donate (clothes, household items, etc) have static values and they just give you a receipt for them, IE pair of jeans in good condition is 15$, t-shirts are 5$, whatever. Iirc there is a pretty basic "computer" donation...

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    This one is actually worth doing if you have a group to do it with. The drops from the boss are ilvl 31 so just as good as anything you can craft, and he drops quite a few different weapons, notably augs and m4s. Anyone wants to get in on it tomorrow add me on uPlay @ Obsequey and we can...

    Yep challenge mode is not nearly as hard as people think it is. Sure, randoms can be pretty bad, but I find I can carry event he worst randoms through any of them besides the power plant and my gear is nothing really special (still on purple gloves and holster cause replacing them is impossible).

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    We must remember very different things about those movies then, because the Schumacher ones are actually unwatchable. And yea, that list you have is a definite pile of shit, no question, but I don't think something that has the budget and backing of this undertaking can come outthatbadly.

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    I don't get it, still far less efficient than just grinding challenge missions I'd wager. Do people just not do challenge missions or what? It's not like ungeared people can even pull this one off reliably.

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    You can have basically 100% uptime on any skill you want with proper health management using strke back (cooldown reduction on reaching low health). Anyone not using that talent is mostly wrong at this point, especially if you're soloing at all. You're damn near immortal vs npcs if you run first...

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    If you're not using the cover buff you're probably doing it wrong. That shit is how you turn challenge missions in to 10-15 minute runs. Stacks with itself, and just puts out absurd damage when done so. The most "efficient" challenge run comps are basically 3 cover buffs and a scan, with like 2...

    Well, there wasn't really anything to dislike about my Nexus 5? I guess maybe the battery life wasn't amazing? I'm mostly curious if there is anything new worth buying that's actually a big leap from what I had, or can I just buy another Nexus 5 someplace and be done?

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    Yea I'm not even sure I'd call bullet king farming "exploiting". It was really only useful as a fresh 30 to get kitted in purples to do challenge missions. Past that just grinding the tunnel mission was way, way faster for phoenix credits/high end drops. My vector is at like 130k sheet dps...

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    Add me on uPlay @ Obsequey if you wanna do some DZ shenanigans. I either slum in like DZ3-4 and fight groups of players there, or solo up around the 5-6 border. My gear is pretty close to "done" so I've mostly been holding me own against groups of mediocre geared dudes, but that ain't gonna last...

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    Patch has definitely made the DZ a lot more volatile. Death penalties while rogue seem to be a fixed amount of XP now based on your level, so no more 100k+ losses. Lots more extraction ambushes happening, and groups seem to just try and mow down solo players on sight for the most part now...

    Smartphones

    Have there been any major changes in phones since the Nexus 5? I've entirely stopped paying attention, but my poor 5 got stepped on by a fat drunk chick and needs replacing now. Can I just buy whatever the current Nexus is and be done?
