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

Movie comes out about Mussolini This forum: why is this movie about trump?????

Yup, the story written 45+ years ago predicted he would be president! I never knew King was Nostradamus all along!

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...

Open beta for weekend starts tomorrow, if you can get a key that is. All the damned giveaways online seem to be happening at like 1am or other odd hours lol

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

It’s a dystopian future. I forget the details, but basically a brutal regime controls the US

History is all you needed to get the idea - WW2 had numerous “death marches”, he just combined that idea with modern America and added the “game show” aspect

For it to be a gas giant, it is quite possible it formed closer than it is now and something knocked it into a further orbit. The early solar system was a lot more chaotic and full. For example, Earth is basically two planets that got mashed together billions of years ago. Uranus (uh huh huh...

Apollo was canceled because 1) it was extremely expensive 2) We won the race 3) the public lost interest. Most stations didn't even bother to broadcast the final lunar mission live. Nixon basically doomed human manned flights to LEO for the next 30 years when he decided to go all in on the...

Starship is still a questionmark despite some successes and it feels like a lot of NASA's ambitious lunar plans really rely on that working out since a) its hypothetical cargo capacity vs. launch cost makes a lunar habitat a much more economical endeavor b) Starship (or a version of it) is...
