    Dear Game Developers: ENOUGH WITH THE HORRIBLE ENDINGS TO YOUR VIDEO GAMES

    Ending of Dead Space 2 was such a fucking let down. They were SO CLOSE to making something amazing, telling the story they had to tell, and being done with it. But nooooooooooooooope gotta make more shitty multiplayer sequels with in-game cash stores! Edit: can't embed timestamps I guess...

    Dark Souls 3

    Wait, people actually enjoy man vs game? Jesus, how? He screeches like a potato kid when you take away their favorite plastic bucket hat and uses that stupid shitty echo voice mod constantly. And yea, Bloodborne was a great game that suffered terribly from being a PS4 exclusive. I hadn't...

    Thanks for the info homies. This isn't something I'd probably even do this year as I want to save up a fair bit more money before jumping in to it. As it stands I'm likely to go for a condo, as full blown houses in Chicago are either way out of my price range or involve too many neighborhood...

    Can confirm, work in web hosting and the only people who wear any kind of button down that isn't a flanel are cunty sales types and "project managers", ie professional ball-coddlers.

    So bros who have houses, how does that shit work these days? Do I need to save up a sizable down payment? Am I going to get a housing loan as a single 31 year old dude that makes 70k/year? Does your regular credit factor in to that shit? Is there anything I'm not thinking of that I'd need to pay...

    Yea no way am I trying to play this on my PS4. Bloodborne fucking awful but I sucked it up because lol exclusive, but no reason to suffer through that when better options are only a couple weeks away.

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    Yea I can't get any named worth a shit to spawn for farming. Maybe they do all stay permadead if you wiped them out earlier? Only one I can find that is still spawning is in the very northeast corner of the map, some sniper guy, but it's like a .4km run from the nearest safehouse and just...

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    Yea, I don't even really bother if he's not up, just try again later/the day after. If he's there though it's about the fastest you can mega farm purples to mule and buy garbage to deconstruct for mats. I got a caduceus off him as well, but it was a garbage roll.

    Spronk, no need to fast travel anywhere. Use the guy that spawns by Autumns Hope, he dies nearly instantly, then just let his goons kill you, you respawn in autumns hope, run immediately back to him and repeat. He's like 50 feet from the safe house, and with no pve death penalty it's just...

    Shotguns are actually way, way better than I gave them credit for. The one is none talent that restores bullets on headshots seems to proc off every shotgun pellet, so you have basically unlimited ammo with them if you aim isn't shit. Combine with some heavy CC skills like flame turret + burn...

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    The vector SMG thingy is 100% your first purchase. Extended mag is pretty good, but can be skipped if you have some decent purple ones already. Really, past the SMG the rest kind of depends on what your weakest piece of gear is. Eventually you'll be wanting all of the armor blueprints, so you...

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    Darkzone definitely needs a lot of work, so we'll see how they handle it in coming patches. Ran in to a team last night that was a 4 man rogue squad with a secondary 4 man squad supporting them as non-rogues. The non-rogues were all running ballistic shields and bodyblocking...

    I feel leveling that many alts will take far, far longer than just grinding challenge mode missions for 30 a pop.

    Is there a high-end replacement for the spider silk holster? The one with all 3 main stat bonuses on it? So far all 3 high ends I've gotten from challenging missions have been crap compared to it =\

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    People really only do public groups to run the story missions, and I mostly agree. The encounters/side quests and stuff aren't really set up for multiple people and are already pretty faceroll by yourself.

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    The PVP at 30 with mostly high end gear feels a lot more "Tom Clancy" than the rest of the game does, funnily enough. It suddenly turns hyper-realistic with everyone being able to drop each other in 1-2 sniper rounds or half an smg mag.

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    Well, the people that got ahead with the pre-perf phoenix drops aren't *THAT* ahead. Give it another week of people grinding at level 30 and they'll be basically caught up gear wise. The larger and much more systemic issue is the rogue system being kinda awful at endgame. It worked great...

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    Do you even see damage numbers when shooting players? I can't even remember if you do or not, but I feel like you don't? And yea, if you're fresh at 30 and fighting people in the DZ, be prepared for some of them to be in complete godmode. Not a stretch at all for some of the mega grinders to...

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    Finally finished grinding to 30. Phoenix credits don't seem as godawful slow as Reddit led me to believe? Getting 30 per challenging mission + daily bonuses isn't awful. It's not especially quick, but you can grind out a pattern a day pretty reasonably at that rate. Anyone else running...

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    LMGs and ARs suck at literally every point in the game, no reason to use them at all. SMGs blow them both out of the water in every way, unless you really cannot use a sniper for some reason for long range, no reason not to be using smg/sniper. Shotguns have some merit for ridiculous burst...

    Went with 2 of them, Asus PG279Q for the main and an MG279Q for the secondary. Cover both my bases with a freesync and a gsync, so we'll see where cards go in the future. Now the first world struggle of finding good 1440p wallpapers has begun.

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    DZ PVP at endgame won't happen unless they rebalance the credit/xp gain and loss ratio. Going rogue right now is such a massive dick kick with the penalty on death being multiple DZ ranks and 100k+ currency, while the gain for surviving a manhunt is minuscule (like 2k currency and a meaningless...

    I don't think it actually enforces those DZ brackets though, or at least it doesn't seem to. I was able to waltz right in to the 0-12 or whatever bracket that DZ01 is at player level 16/DZ rank 18 and murdering everything in sight, use an evac point, etc.

    I had to back off of ultra at 1440p cause I'm autistic about my framerate and it was dipping below 60 in a couple places, but yea holy goddamn is this game pretty.

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    I haven't seen anything that made me thinking someone is cheating in the darkzone yet on PC, but it's still only a few days in so who knows. Visually on PC at 1440p it pretty much shits on ps4, but that isn't surprising.

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    It's not really that surprising that this has done so well. Destiny did pretty damn well, and I know there has to be a market in the PC user base for a Destiny-like game. Division doesn't really do anything amazing or revolutionary for sure, but it also doesn't really fuck anything up either...

    Made it to like level 12, did darkzone up to 15 or so, much murder was had. I'm stuck on the story missions now though, the napalm factory thing is like fucked for me and is missing the floor in most of the areas and I fall through the world. Relaunched the game half a dozen times, tried...

    I think I'm actually going to be forced to move by Comcast this year. The last month or so my connection has gone to literal shit, like 1-3mbps download speeds, 30% packetloss constantly, etc. I work primarily from home and can't stay connected to an rdp/ssh session worth a shit anymore.

    Personally I was shocked by Avatar when they went with the complete 180 on the ending and the bad guys all won and humanity is doomed. You spend an entire movie with this awesome space marine Colonel with a badass scar that pilots robots, trying to desperately to stave off hostile aliens so his...

    It feels pretty fast/hectic at the start, but kind of turns in to the opposite down the road once you're about a year in and you'll be struggling to find things to do to fill the day and going to be at like 5pm for lack of them.

    It was only bullshit because it was counter to the way it worked in DS1. I don't think I'd call it necessarily worse, just different. We were all already conditioned by DS1 though so it felt really wrong at first.

    Tom Clancy's The Division

    You and me both. I really enjoyed the darkzone in the beta, but it's Ubisoft and I'm pretty sure there just isn't going to be any kind of endgame on the actual release and it'll be a waste of 60$.
