Was watching shroud’s stream. He was on a server that had a bunch of big streamers on it - cheater shows up with aimbot and starts killing everyone. Shroud escapes and runs into another squad that agrees to be his security detail. Eventually multiple squads show up and surround the cheater...

Wasn’t the PS2 game technically the canon sequel to The Thing?

There were quests in tech test 2 that weren’t in live, like movie night. I wouldn’t be shocked if the new quests getting added this month are the missing ones from the tech test. Like there was a quest to get lance’s mix tape, to get a movie reel and projector, etc

Lolstralia. What’s with Australia and the UK being censor happy nanny states? To be a bit fair, I think the American VA had bad direction. Remember the infamous “COVID patch” in ShB post-MSQ where all the English VA sounded off? Most of that was due to poor direction. VA work when you have...

I agree Expedition 33 will probably get GOTY Multiplayer is a toss up. Rivals fell off a lot. I think if Arc Raiders maintains momentum through the end of the year, it could snag it Independent/small developer category will be tough. Schedule One and Mega Bonk would probably be favorites

The Japanese fans didn't like it either, which evidenced it has less to do with the localization and more to do with other factors. What I suspect happened: 1) Ishikawa, who wrote ShB and EW, was promoted to lead story supervisor. That means other writers took primary reigns and she probably...

I do wonder what determines the amount of drivers that drop. I killed a bombadier in Blue Gate tonight and looted 5 drivers from the remains!

Ewww, Grummz. That dude is such a grifter Anyways, after doing some research online, it suggests that Kate maybe still works at Square Enix/on the team, but was moved to a different role that deals with game lore. I would be curious what actually drove the change - while it is possible the...

That is driven by players. I have to imagine pacifist runs in groups are a much smaller minority than pacifist runs in solos.

The LKV employee room key (in the space building in buried city) has great loot if you can get that key. Drop rate for the key is ass, though

The Queen guns aren’t bad, they’re just anti-Arc guns like hullcracker. For PvP they aren’t great. I get the feeling more content is done but the devs are drip feeding it to keep players engaged. We’re getting a new map and quests and items this month

The bottle neck for a lot of T3 stations are items you only get from the big Arc like bombadiers and bastions. They're much harder to pull to a more remote spot to kill and usually hang around more open areas. The turret cores are a pain in the ass to get, though. Apparently they can also...

I was most surprised that he was only 84. He looked like he was 84 back during the Bush administration

Finally got daggers - after Amazon murdered the game lol

Low spoiler review

None of those things addressed inflation, though. In fact they made things worse. The only thing that made inflation somewhat controlled was the gold cap (players couldn't have more than 500k, guilds I forget but it was like 1-2 million at first or something) The taxes you paid went directly...

Tabula Rasa was a cool idea that was too early - the tech wasn't there yet.

Blizzard were like the New England Patriots during the Brady-Belichek era - all the coaches on that team would leave and get a coaching job on another team in the NFL, then they would do miserably on their new teams

Pro tip: There is a quest you get later on where Celeste needs you to get a power rod. RNG for that is shit - only drops from breach loot spots in the generator building on Dam map and the drop rate sucks. However, during one quest much earlier you get a legendary grapple hook item as a...

"Once again the Gods have spread the timeline's cheeks and rammed cock into continuity!"

Water Treatment plant is pretty good for shrooms - if no one has hit it, can usually get between 1-3 in the outer hallway with the pipes

Well it does get rid of two issues at once Creates a reason to raise Ashur's station and remove the overlying slave revolt threat. I suspect the timeline diverges sometime after Batiartus gets killed - after assassinating Spartacus, Ashur probably marries Lucrectia and acquires all the...

I used sticky nades on it, seemed to do the trick until it ran away lol A lot of items get slept on. Blaze grenades are great for making space, covering a retreat in narrow areas, or flushing people out of spots. Lure grenades attract Arc, but the Arc will still prioritize a human if they see...

Ya, I got this once. The nuke spam clears waves so fast lol

Just wait until the quest where you have to kill the giant Arc ball that rolls around. I did that on the desert map because it usually spawns in a remote area. Tossed 2 nades at it, it was damaged, then it runs away out of bounds at the edge of the map. I had to spend like 10 minutes trying...

It's just a classic case of misunderstanding their audience

The NA Solo thing isn't too hard to explain NA PVE tend to gravitate towards solo play and people are doing quests so there isn't strong motivation to fight others since it can impede your questing. What will be interesting is what happens when the more PVP oriented solo players start to wrap...

I kind of wonder if there is some hidden queue modifier where if it notices you are chill near other raiders, it matches you with other chill solo raiders No joke, I played for like 3 hours tonight and outside of one person, most everyone was chill and didnt want to fight. Mostly people were...

I suspect the locked map will be the “end game” map, like labs in Tarkov There is also a “reset” progression where you get certain perks and cosmetics for a voluntary reset and based on your stash value at time of reset

You just play smart is all. I solo constantly in games like this or even BR. I’m not a pure bush Wookie because I have no issue fighting, but it’s learning to read the environment You can’t always avoid fights, but it’s pretty easy to reduce the risk of an engagement if you look for signs of...

That’s part of the fun - you can play completely pacifist and win, but there are PKs lurking around and deadly NPCs. Sometimes the other players are friendly, sometimes no I do love how the Arc npcs can change a fight/interaction though - temporary alliances can sometimes happen if something...

Interesting dev update. They’re testing a way to store your base and all its contents in a base backup tool. Good news if you wanted to take a break and not lose all your shit

There are too many zoomers on this forum that can’t appreciate Aeryn Sun or Xena

If you solo queue, there are a lot of people willing to be chill because people are trying to do quests. There is still PvP, but this will probably the most pacifist the game will ever be. Once people level up, that is when they start murdering lol

Live letter was this morning. Next patch scheduled for 12/16 1) housing changes pushed to 7.5 2) with the exception of weapons, all gear can now by glamoured regardless as to class. White mage in plate armor? Samurai in fishing gear? Go for it 3) changes to criterion dungeons - hard mode...

Huh? That has to be an issue on your end, the positional audio in this game is one of its strong points. As for your gun complaints, you're using noob guns. T2 and T3 guns start getting things like sniper scopes, special on-use effects, or full on machine guns. Even without a bench, you...

It's mostly because early on you need everything. Once you get established and get your stuff upgraded, you'll be primarily looking for certain rare items or gear

Rail pass pays for itself if you plan to visit multiple cities. When I went took a day trip from Kyoto to Hiroshima - took like 3 hours each way. The pass that lets you sit away from the rabble is nice since the cabins are virtually empty in business class or whatever it’s called Food isn’t...

I never said the cash shop wasn’t shit. They eventually got the hint and released some cool shit like the winged knight outfit and hippo mounts, but for like a year plus it was some renfaire on acid clown outfits. It took them like 2-3 years to add stuff that was semi decent The biggest issue...
