It's been like 9 years

And I'm getting clapped so bad it's ridiculous

Obviously, starting in a sidewinder you don't expect much. But like, I expected it to at least be able to complete the base level missions as-is. I had to upgrade my fsd just to get to destinations without running out of fuel even with a scoop

Then the first combat mission was against 4 wanted commanders

[raven frost]

oooh yeah no

sidewinders don't stand a chance against any ship unless you're like a hella skilled pilot sadly

[pallid grail]

I mean I lasted a good while l

Lol

But yea. Tips for getting started?

What should I be looking to fly initially to see combat

[raven frost]

Eagle is a good start, don't expect to be winning wars with more than one ship though

That or if you save a bit, Viper Mk3

[pallid grail]

There's a mk3?

Thought the mk2 was the big deal

Just seeing in videos

So what exactly is the sidewinder supposed to allow me to do? I get going up against other players or even harder NPCs it should never be able to hang but so far it hasn't really been able to do anything except travel from system to system

And even that it doesn't do very well

[raven frost]

starter ship, it doesn't really specialize in anything - you kinda have to build it to do what you want. I personally would fill it with cargo racks and do some cargo running

I'd try and tell you what works but it honestly has been so long since I flew a sidewinder I don't remember how to build them

[pallid grail]

Just looking for tips on how to make efficient money, while also having fun

Is been a long long time but I feel like I was more combat capable in it back then

Mining bored the piss out of me last time I played so I really don't want to do that unless there's a less face melting way to do it. Running goods between stations is okay every now and then but not something I want to do for 20 hours straight either. Need to have some combat in the mix. Or other stuff. Thankfully Odyssey is a thing so Id like to plug at that a bit too

[raven frost]

yeye

odyssey seems like a good way to make money early on

if you're willing to play a mid shooter 😛

[pallid grail]

I haven't really messed with it beyond the tutorial mission but it seemed kinda fun. Just like, the different systems you can interact with and how they incorporate the discovery and research aspect of the game into it.

[primal loom]

It's the junker space car that lets you scrape by 'till you can afford something better

The Cobra Mk3 is the better version of it, very maneuverable and capable of doing just about anything

[raven frost]

I remember taking on an anaconda with my cobra mk3, I won but I was barely alive by the end of it lol

canopy shattered, 3% hull integrity

[primal loom]

Lol the nerves while docking after that

https://tenor.com/view/huh-gif-20211479

[raven frost]

nah

more and overwhelming sense of "Jesus, I just did that???"

[frigid yarrow]

The fact all that came from a boom at some point in the non existent universe

[raven frost]

just glad it wasn't a federal corvette

would've been dead from that

[frigid yarrow]

I have a clip about that too

It was beyond tense

Straight up nightmare fuel for me, and for any pilot that faced the very same fate I did

It is when space passes from having no sound to start chanting in latin that you understand shit got serious

[primal loom]

Complicated man, very complicated

[tame cairn]

i havent even watched much of the game but what i have seen is more than enough

[shadow tartan]

Sucks how it went down but there was a reason why I posted that the founders left the studio in 2022

[tame cairn]

yeah, that always sucks
i just hate people that follow trends, just because its trendy doesnt mean it will work for you

[shadow tartan]

Everyone wants to blame publishers though

[tame cairn]

mm, i havent been too involved in the controversy for the game but thats always not cool

well usually

Ahh, screw it. It's only 12€ right now

[obtuse reef]

It’s alright, just a lot of interesting mechanics are locked behind the DLCs

[obtuse reef]

what a cry-baby

it was only a limb removal

[obtuse reef]

So, about this. Sgt. Beanbag just got his chest caved in by a really angry robot

He, uh, he's not moving

[winter yew]

NOOOOOOOO

[obtuse reef]

Fortunately, I had to reload the save, so he's now alive

[winter yew]

hooray

[high ibex]

Spotted last night as I was treasure hunting in ESO 😂

[obtuse reef]

and thanks to Sgt. Beanbag, we finally took down that really angry robot

[tranquil glen]

Drifter?

[obtuse reef]

It has become very apparent that choosing the one race with the lowest HP in the game and then choosing to ignore the fact that they need time to heal and immediately putting them in combat with one of the hardest enemies in the game was a really bad idea

[worldly vector]

https://youtu.be/lPJB8FMkxos?si=rj7gyPPiPqfUW8td

First off

Fallout ain’t seeing the pearly gates for that thumbnail

Second

Byf is never beating the allegations

[dull tulip]

I was so excited to get kicked by Rhulk during that raid

[inland oasis]

i wish i never saw what byf looked like lol

by that i mean ive only ever heard him and he looks nothing like i thought

[restive tusk]

its always like that.
Voices over radio / video rarely correspond to the image you paint in your mind

[inland oasis]

100% i think theres been only like once where i wasnt far off

[restive tusk]

I know this 70+ year old lady who is always the one doing intercom at the subway station, and she has like the sexiest female voice ever

she also does it on purpose too

[inland oasis]

its weird how our mind even connects a sound to an appearance like that xD

you "sound" like youd look a certain way

just sounds strange lol

[restive tusk]

yea that's the thing, we always think the face corresponds fine to the voice.
But most people i know are usually very far off. lol
you're the first i hear claiming they're usually correct

[inland oasis]

i didnt claim that]

theres only been ONCE i was right lol

kinda

[restive tusk]

😂
i completely read the post above wrong sry

[inland oasis]

lmfao

[restive tusk]

it's all the like double and triple negatives thing

[inland oasis]

i totally get what u mean tho. we always give the person we hear a benefit of the doubt. like they sound normal, so they must look at least average.

[worldly vector]

yep

he ended up being a neckbeard

☠️

[worldly vector]

you played d2?

[inland oasis]

i mean that part doesnt shock me its destiny 2 lore. and the king of it. but idk it doesnt fit even while looking at him

[worldly vector]

lol

i hope froggy (the oob guy) never does a face reveal

[dull tulip]

I've been playing since D1 beta

[worldly vector]

cause his voice is so nice

[worldly vector]

damn

[inland oasis]

makes me curious what spiffing brit looks like lol

[restive tusk]

i am always wrong.
this one local radio host has some really good deep voice, always talked very erudit-like. I pictured him has a middle aged white dude with prepboy hair and geeky glasses.
When they started posting billboards advertising the show with his face on, i found out it was a super young black dude with dreadlocks

[inland oasis]

its a mindfuck lmao

[worldly vector]

did you know jenks has never raided or did a dungeon until i convinced him to try lfging prophecy a while back? (hes also been playing since d1)

[inland oasis]

ik that feeling

[restive tusk]

i think i know a person who has seen spiffing brit.
gonna ask them tomorrow

[inland oasis]

i still dont. u didnt convince shit

[worldly vector]

you DID do prophecy and got a nice smg tho

https://tenor.com/view/dog-smile-smirk-gif-18775562

you have it equipped right now

[inland oasis]

okay?

[worldly vector]

so i did manage to convince you to try a dungeon

[inland oasis]

not rly no

i tried lfg

[worldly vector]

so you didnt do prophecy?

[inland oasis]

i dont care if it was a dungeon

[restive tusk]

Also Josh from let's game it out....
still puzzles me 🤔
i love his voice

[inland oasis]

anyways

[worldly vector]

did you know the voice actor of savathun will be voicing yellow in the upcoming among us show

😂

[dull tulip]

Can totally believe it. I rarely raid cause of my social anxiety

Found a chill group tho I'm still not great with social interactions but at least I've raided lil more

[worldly vector]

thats kind of what i never understood

nobody will say anything if you confirm you have a mic and can put good damage/kwtd

you dont even have to speak

i say hello one time at the start of a raid to let them know i have mic and never talk again

[inland oasis]

i just avoid that process in general. its not hard to understand

just auto matchmake me. lol idc about if someone wants me or not on there fireteam

[restive tusk]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMjxmPPmYnE

well i'll be damned, someone actually found out his face on a video about some other obscure movie

[worldly vector]

90% of my time in d2 is spent in endgame activities :tired:

[inland oasis]

YOUR time

[worldly vector]

yeah

thats what i said

[inland oasis]

we dont play the same

[worldly vector]

uh huh

that much is obvious

[inland oasis]

and im not trying to tell you how you should

so

[worldly vector]

😂

I’m your opposite

[inland oasis]

👍

[restive tusk]

Welp apparently Spiff's face is actually not a very well guarded secret i was linked to google so

and he definitely looks british

[heady ore]

https://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/1322726

[worldly vector]

no.

[dull tulip]

Anxiety is complicated and exhausting. Not only is it a mental burden it can cause physical sickness too. It's very difficult to contol and hits like a truck.

Sometimes I'm perfectly fine, but when I get a severe anxiety attack during a raid, crucible, yadda yadda its so overwhelming that I just don't even wanna bother putting myself in that situation again.

Then eventually time will pass and I heal a lil. Try it again rinse n repeat

[worldly vector]

so what im hearing is weak mental fortitude?

[inland oasis]

such an ass

[worldly vector]

kekek

[dull tulip]

I'm weirdly okay with solo crucible, just do my best to view everyone as npcs

[worldly vector]

if theres one thing you should know about interacting with me is that seeking sympathy from me is not gonna get you anything

but if you want to strike up a nice discussion about a topic i understand? im your guy

[dull tulip]

I'm not seeking sympathy. I was explaining since you were implying that you didn't understand why some individuals struggle with social interactions more than others.

[inland oasis]

no one wqas seeking anything. youre just straight up disrespectful

[worldly vector]

dont bother telling me your woes because my reaction will not be wholesome in layman terms

[restive tusk]

it's that edgelord thing striking up again

[worldly vector]

just being realistic

going out of my way to make an internet stranger happy is not high on my list of priorities

[restive tusk]

there's a difference between being realistic, or straight up out of touch

but i digress and this is the wrong channel

[worldly vector]

ill go with being realistic.

[inland oasis]

not going out of your way to show respect but going out of your way to disrespect someone.... lol

[solid lynx]

Just beat Stellaris

[worldly vector]

i mean if your gonna interperet that as disrespect then again, its honestly kind of a problem on your end

cause plenty of people ive interacted with have no problem with having fun poked at them

[restive tusk]

i mean when someone mentions their real physical or mental problems on something and you just decide to be dismissive or a downer, im pretty sure the problem is on your end

But whatever works for you, not my issue to deal with, my 2 cents are spent

[worldly vector]

being introverted isnt always social anxiety yet everyone overexaggerates their "mental illness", why dont you show me the diagnosis?

[restive tusk]

there it is

[solid lynx]

It costs nothing to be nice

[restive tusk]

some opinions are just better kept to yourself

[worldly vector]

it costs my effort and its a monday, so yes, it costs to be nice

[worldly vector]

the internet is for free speech, no?

[solid lynx]

Perhaps, but that doesn't mean there are no consequences for what you say.

[worldly vector]

in real life? sure

[solid lynx]

There certainly are consequences on the internet too

[worldly vector]

no consequence on the internet cant be solved with a good meal and a new account

[solid lynx]

Besides, even if there were no consequences

What do you get from being rude?

[worldly vector]

i pay less for being rude than i do being kind on mondays

[solid lynx]

Gonna lay it out for you straight, that's a horrible outlook to have.

Not everything in life is about exchange

[worldly vector]

to you? sure

[solid lynx]

Try being nice just for the sake of being nice, it might make you feel better.

[worldly vector]

except for me today thats not what will happen

[solid lynx]

Yeah, I really don't know what to say to you.

[worldly vector]

if it was a weekend i wouldve been very nice but unfortunately it is not

[restive tusk]

at this point it's just cringe

[solid lynx]

Can't say I agree with your reasoning for being like that, but I suppose it is what it is. Doubt there's anything I can do to change it.

[worldly vector]

i thought you had given your two cents already?

[solid lynx]

I do sincerely hope you do better in the future, though.

Because being rude to others because you don't like the day of the week is very childish

[restive tusk]

and 2 cents was already more than this event deserved

[worldly vector]

go say that to any person who had to wake up at 6 in the morning on a monday and see if their response is a "sorry"

[solid lynx]

I get why that's unpleasant, but you don't gotta take it out on other people.

Anyways as I said earlier

Doubt there's anything I can do to change it

So

[inland oasis]

i wish the forza horizon games had a replay editor along with the photo mode, and i dont mean the replay editor like after a race.
im talkin a fully fledged one that records like the last 10 seconds or something, lets you tripod a camera up, and have a follow vehicle funtion etc. many options. i feel like they cheap out on it every iteration.

afaik as it is rn in the game they have some cool features, but only accessable in the after race replay editor and thats it.

[glossy kestrel]

@inland oasis shadowplay has tht function... OBS has tht function... dont need it ingame
would actually be a waste of resources and server stability to add it ingame!
they already have the in race replay thing when u hit R... tht alone take a lot of resources!

[inland oasis]

right because i wanna use third party software for something thats been in the games already before...

nty

not to mention its also capable of being a single player game. so it wouldnt affect servers whatsoever

[obtuse reef]

I started playing GTFO. Fun fact, it is not well balanced for two players, as in, not at all

Most games usually increase or decrease the difficulty to compensate for more or less players. GTFO does not do that

It is also the only game I know of with a quad barrel sawed off shotgun

[inland oasis]

that game afaik is one of the least handholdey games out there in terms of difficulty.

it doesnt care about you. only that you lose xD

[obtuse reef]

Yup

My friend and I managed to beat the first mission on the easiest difficulty. After five or so tries

[inland oasis]

brutal

[obtuse reef]

We discovered that it was my other friend who was the issue, since he is really bad about moving around the sleeping enemies

Since they enter an agitated state if you move while they’re stirring, if you don’t stop moving, they will aggro and wake up their buddies

At that point you have to go loud, which results in more enemies waking up, resulting in them overwhelming you

There are also times where you have to go loud, either too many enemies too close together to kill them silently or just too many in the room in general

We also don’t play a lot of stealth games, so having to actually be careful is something we’re not used to

[inland oasis]

im reallly bad with stealth for 2 reasons, 1 i like going quick, being effecient. i lack patience. and 2 i really like to push the limits and see just how far i can really PUSH the stealth mechanics. xD

usually ending up in me just getting outright cuaght

[obtuse reef]

Oh yeah, GTFO simulates you bumping into enemies lol. If you accidentally touch one, they will immediately aggro

I have accidentally triggered enemies like that

Also, you can’t use your flashlight as that also aggros enemies

So you have to blindly feel around (or use the biotracker) to find the enemies and then pray there isn’t one too close

[dry copper]

From left the right. red white blue hats (american). red white blue shirts (american). white blue red chaps (russian)

[obtuse reef]

It’s also really weird what makes noise and what doesn’t. The turrets activating, which makes an obvious noise, doesn’t aggro enemies, but using computer terminals does.

Killing enemies does also make noise, but less of it

[frigid yarrow]

I switched up my build last night to try a loud obnoxious tank in FO76

It's very VERY loud

Walking around with a 50 cal machine gun

Full power armor

[obtuse reef]

Deep Rock Galactic gives you a nuclear grenade launcher, PAYDAY2 gives me a goddamn minigun, Doom Eternal is, well, Doom

So naturally, GTFO is a huge change of pace

By the way, the minigun in PAYDAY is pretty shit

Doesn’t deal a lot of damage and uses a ton of ammo

[primal loom]

Mind-boggling scale

[primal loom]

https://tenor.com/view/fallout-guns-battle-power-armor-sodaz-gif-8714063767294786148

[dry copper]

I don't like the minigun for its wind up

[obtuse reef]

I guess CS2 has stealth, but I choose to ignore it

Unless I’m being an asshole with the knife

[dry copper]

The damage output of the minigun in fo76 is not justified by the windup time.

hey, at least you guys didn't get a nuke dumped in the beach

we didn't have that luck here in Spain lmao

[dry copper]

Thought you were going to pretend to be a dinosaur, talking about the asteroid that killed them

[frigid yarrow]

ah, no, it's actually funnier, back in the 60's the US crashed a plane with 2 nukes in Spain, while people was on the beach and all, they didn't ignite though

[dry copper]

well.....no. To detonate a nuke requires a specific series of operations. They don't go off accidentally.

[frigid yarrow]

indeed. one of them broke and started spreading radiation tho

[dry copper]

eww

[frigid yarrow]

yep.

[dry copper]

I assume the plane was shipping the nukes

[frigid yarrow]

of course we were told it was fine and people didn't get irradiated. classical Chernobyl coverup

[dry copper]

chernobyl was covered up?

lol

[frigid yarrow]

ah nah, just flying near the USSR, cold war stuff you know

[frigid yarrow]

in the USSR

[dry copper]

Maybe. I don't know. Russians aren't historically well known for their skills at covering things up.

[frigid yarrow]

i'm talking like in the context of, a nation suffers an event that is too big to be shown to the public so people is told all is going well. same thing in this nukes scenario

a classic

[dry copper]

Reminds me of Churchills propaganda during WW2. Keep Calm and Carry On.

[mental rose]

I saw that in a youtube vid I think... American strategic bomber suffered failures to multiple engines, so they had to ditch their nuclear bombs to reduce weight.

They were inert, fortunately

[dry copper]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JMR0TPUvry0

[frigid yarrow]

yep

[frigid yarrow]

the fact that happened in the first place feels so surreal lmao, they essentially left the nukes's info be gathered by anyone. and that actually happened, there was a scientist we had who was searching how to make nukes a thing here aswell, it's such an interesting story

[mental rose]

Ok, no. It was a different scenario.
In 1950 a strategic bomber on-route from Alaska to Texas suffered engine failure and had to ditch it's nuclear bomb.
Here though, the priming explosive detonated, but the nuclear part wasn't armed so the explosion was conventional.

I think if Razer had stuck to the idea of modular computing, they would've had something genuinely unique in the gaming space

They spent too much time diversifying and not enough bringing down the cost to make it market ready

[obtuse reef]

I might just end my current Kenshi playthrough and move to the next one that I want to try

I was going to destroy every faction, but I already defeated the Anti-Slavers, which was the biggest challenge. Their leader had higher stats than the supposed final boss

I managed to take him down with three unarmed bug men, a crossbow and a really stubborn robot

And they all had no HP

My next playthrough is going to be hell though.

No armor, solo hiver worker drone (lowest HP in the game with reduced xp gain in combat stats), unarmed with the robot apocalypse mod installed, causing hostile roaming bands of robots

I wish we’d get a new Skate 4 game… lol. Just watched some old footage of 1-3, and man…. I miss that game

[earnest hatch]

but we are????

[inland oasis]

Some time soon, I heard about the confirmation a while ago

[earnest hatch]

https://www.ea.com/games/skate

they do updates quite often now

[abstract turret]

https://bethesda.net/en/article/0xBHwy048KMmWqzKkrknu/fallout-4-next-gen-update-2-notes

[thorny python]

space engineers just updated

[obtuse reef]

Looks convenient for everyone who knows how to code or set that up. Unfortunately for me, I’m too stupid to understand any of it

[thorny python]

You don't need to know how to code to use it. Most of their recent updates have made it so scripts aren't relied upon so much.

[obtuse reef]

They’re making the AI and automation easier for us smooth brained folk to understand, but I’m still not great at it

[silver sparrow]

🥚

This is the keen brain

And this is the keen brain on drugs

Any questions

[thorny python]

where did the pan come from?

also are you saying that's your brain or Keen Software House's brain?

[silver sparrow]

The pan is clearly the drugs in this metaphor

[thorny python]

that doesn't answer where it came from.

I watched that

There’s also Pootis: Engage and Pootis: Engage Extreme

They probably can’t be posted here

The TF2 community is a unique experience that I can’t quite encapsulate in words

Especially because half those words would get me cancelled on Twitter

I’d normally recommend that someone should go check it out for themselves, but I don’t even think that someone with a death sentence should have to do that

[obtuse reef]

Just did the second mission of GTFO with my friends. It was hell. There was fog everywhere, as well as giant enemies that needed a .50cal to take down. I was the only one with a bioscanner, so I was the only one who knew what was where ahead of time, my friend was the only one with a thermal sight, so he was the only one who could see through the fog, and my other friend was the only one with a sniper rifle, so he was the only one who can actually handle the big guys

We beat it first try in around an hour

On the easiest difficulty

[weak tiger]

I really wanted to play GTFO but I’m kinda glad I didn’t, I’d get too stressed XD

It’s fun to watch people play but ooooffff

[obtuse reef]

It’s like red light green light, but the Squid Games version

If you move when you’re not supposed to, you better pray you can kill the grouchy bastard before he tells his buddies

It's always the same thing...

[weak tiger]

The creature design looks really good but I’d get my ass kicked for suuuure

[restive tusk]

It's even worse when you're ttrying to help someone troubleshoot and they lie about using mods

[dry copper]

Almost have my ultracite power armor pieces all assembled

Just need a right leg

[obtuse reef]

You technically can go loud

It’s just it uses a lot of ammo and other resources that would be better suited for when fighting is non-optional

[restive tusk]

is there something i syhould be saving my atoms for if i don't plan on paying cash anytime soon

[dry copper]

If I didn't spend any money and just saved my atoms, I'd save them for specifically utility items that give resources I would need to craft or make otherwise.

[restive tusk]

And fck manor lords is already looking so godly...
i need to wrap up a few games and make disk space...

[dry copper]

Sorry not utility

The store utility slots are for like repair kits

I mean utility for camp items...like a fusion core charger

[weak tiger]

Makes sense, tho I don’t have a consistent 4 person group to play co-op with anyway been achievement hunting on MELE for Steam and scoping out other smaller games

[obtuse reef]

I mean, you can also do it solo

[restive tusk]

oh yea got it.
and maybe unlock a second loadout slot or camp slot

[dry copper]

Or the acid producing butterfly cage

[obtuse reef]

It’s just that the game is poorly balanced for solo, as in, not at all

The difficulty does not change based on player count

[dry copper]

Acid was a big deal for me playing, making ammo. So getting the acid producing butterfly cage was a game changer

[weak tiger]

I like a moderate challenge not absolutely embarrassing myself 😂

[restive tusk]

i've been looting all corpses so far, im drowning in ammo and having to leave some at the camp

maybe it'll change

[obtuse reef]

It’s easier with a smaller group imo, since you can coordinate a bit better.

[dry copper]

Sell the ammo you don't want. 1 cap a bullet

People will buy it all

[restive tusk]

i also unlocked this bullion cubes from season rewards 🤨
no idea what it does yet

[dry copper]

I just unlocked bullions today.

[weak tiger]

I feel like 3 is a good number just from vibes

[restive tusk]

you for real?? 😂
gonna try that

[obtuse reef]

Yeah, three works fine

[restive tusk]

sorry bout the cross convo guys lol

[weak tiger]

Maybe if it goes on sale I’ll see if buddies want to play with me

[dry copper]

Bullions are another currency beneath the events system. You can get max 400 a day with treasury notes and 300 more a week with some weird npc I've never met yet

[weak tiger]

lol dont even worry I was about to say sorry for yapping too

[dry copper]

Bullions buy the most expensive shit in the game

[restive tusk]

what it do tho? lol

oh kk

not there yet

[dry copper]

You can buy the top tier armor plans. I think there are even store items on some vendors for sale for bullions

atomshop store

I'm told the company tea machine is one

That's my first buy if I find it

[restive tusk]

yea im getting ahead of myself.
been taking it slow with my friend just an hour a day or so.
we still level 15

[dry copper]

I just did events and got most of my levels

[restive tusk]

we kinda wanna do the storyline tbh

we do a couple events, but that just makes us side track from the missions

[dry copper]

Tag shit and don't even try to kill it. Everyone else does the heavy carry in the event. The only advantage to leveling is having more skill points to build your skills the way you want to

[restive tusk]

true. can try that too

[dry copper]

I only do 3 or 4 specific events because they're the ones people open lunchboxes for

Lunchboxes are XP bonuses that last like an hour or two

Scorchbeast queen, the main event (right now it's alien invasion), Radiation Rumble, The Jamboree

I can't recall the names of the others and the jamboree one is actually called something else. You have to protect a booze still

Four waves

I won't do Earl unless I see a ton of people there. It's not worth doing and failing on.

[tame cairn]

Isonzo is kinda fun

[restive tusk]

we still trying to grasp some of the mechanics. this is too advanced 😁

[austere lance]

F76?

Honestly just play it like a normal Fallout game and you'll be fine

[dry copper]

This is the first build I've done with no vats

The damage output is ....different...but I'm tanky as hell

I still need more fusion core perk cards to optimize it

[restive tusk]

normal FO i always tried to stay away from power armor when possible

nothing against it, i just prefer to play with my own vulnerable body

[dry copper]

Same. I am trying a power armor build now. It's...a little awkward

Esp with the first person camera being so low on the armor

[restive tusk]

mhm

[dry copper]

Your hands literally get in your face

[restive tusk]

when i have to hop on armor, i'll usually grab the big guns, like minigun or rocket

oh i was trying that railway spike sniper on FO, it's actually pretty cool

fo4 *

[tame cairn]

railway rifle is so OP

[dry copper]

I have not seen a railway gun yet

[tame cairn]

in fo4

[dry copper]

By the time I find a railway gun it will be nerfed

[tame cairn]

once i got that, i used that pretty much only

[primal loom]

Are we talkin' Fallout 👀

[tame cairn]

indeed

[restive tusk]

yea the railway spike thing is a newer addition

iirc its a CC item thats given free now

[dry copper]

Question: Does the Gatling Plasma count as a science gun or a gunsmith gun where updating and preserving it is concerned?

[restive tusk]

they also have the tesla gun and solar rifle. all newer OP additions

[tame cairn]

in fo4?

no

[restive tusk]

don't recall for sure, but i believe its both

[tame cairn]

its the railroads gun

but the enclave stuff is new yeah

[restive tusk]

pretty sure what i got is from the CC

[restive tusk]

i'll check later

[primal loom]

Love me farm

[tame cairn]

the rifle that was added with the update was the Anti Material Rifle

[restive tusk]

hey! i was using that same hat yesterday @rib
with the Golf outfit

[primal loom]

Niiice

[tame cairn]

i'll get into 76 eventually, too many games to play

[restive tusk]

i feel the pain

bellwright and manor lords been calling.

and i wont have time to play enough before KCD 2 drops ugh

[primal loom]

We're spoiled for choice, good problem to have lol

[restive tusk]

steam doesnt help either with its sales

[tame cairn]

man i cant wait for this game

[restive tusk]

its like the meme.

"instead of playing games i never paid for, i pay for games i never play"

steam sales, the opposite of piracy

[dry copper]

I wish the modding system for weapons let you replace the 1 star perk without replacing the 2 and 3 star perk in gear

[obtuse reef]

Does this mean if I pirate games, it gets balanced out?

[restive tusk]

dont think it works like that 😆

[obtuse reef]

I’m sure the court will see my logic

It’s flawless

[primal loom]

Gorgeous

[tame cairn]

I'm trying to 100% Spiderman 2

it's fun

[primal loom]

That would be nice

[dry copper]

Peter parker appreciates it

[tame cairn]

good, hopefully i get a raise
this takes a while

[restive tusk]

"you see your honor, i know i murdered all these people, but i have also fathered several children, i think that balances out"

[primal loom]

I'm just glad we can make any weapon legendary, even ones we craft - and reroll them

[dry copper]

It takes more than a sperm donor to "father" a child

[obtuse reef]

No no, that’s a different type of arbitrary mental gymnastics

[strange dune]

You seem like you’d be a perfect lawyer

[primal loom]

FO4 was a lot more grindy for legendaries than 76 because it was entirely up to chance

[restive tusk]

indeed, but thats too deep and doesnt fit my current narrative

i kinda like it

im the weird dude who loves rng gameplay

and loot

[obtuse reef]

My logic is more like “Your honor, I stimulated the economy, I just also chose to not stimulate as much as I could have. Because I paid one company, eventually the other company will get that money through natural circulation”

[tame cairn]

he likes borderlands

(maybe)

[restive tusk]

never got to play it

[tame cairn]

aw dang

[obtuse reef]

I am the personification of the term “loot goblin”

[tame cairn]

if you ever do, play 2

thats all it is

rng

[dry copper]

FO76 gave me the greatest appreciation for Opossums

They scary af. They show as aggressive...and they never attack.

[restive tusk]

is it even on pc steam?

[obtuse reef]

Yes

[restive tusk]

man they are rubbers.
i used to have one that for a whole week would go to my trash can and rub on an old dugffle bag i had put there to throw out

sadly cannot keep them as pets due to canadian law

any native species for that matter

[obtuse reef]

I’m always goblin that loot.

And then deez n-

[dry copper]

I wouldn't want a beaver

[obtuse reef]

I mean, deez noodles. Yeah. Noodles

Sure

[restive tusk]

its funny cause federal laws can even land you jail time for keeping a native species as pet.
But there is no federal law when it comes to exotic creatures.
Only city bylaws.
This means if i get a literal alligator all that happens to me if caught is paying like a $250 dollar fine

Canadian logic

[dry copper]

and you lose the animal

[obtuse reef]

https://tenor.com/view/yonk-take-loot-gif-9743379

[restive tusk]

get another one and dont get caught again

thats what some ppl do

last i checked, the local city bylaw did not account for tigers btw.
Im sure they would include it in some category though

Some years ago, someone released 2 capybaras in the local Central park

[obtuse reef]

If I see a shiny, I take the shiny. Problem is, usually I have too many “shinies”

[primal loom]

They'll never find my Deathclaw

No such thing as too many shinies

[obtuse reef]

At least, I hope so, for my dog’s sake

has the creators of nms made any other games?

[kind wolf]

Some game involving a campfire, and a mobile game i think

Also light no fire which is coming soon

[restive tusk]

The last campfire has good reviews and won awards

but its a more lite experience story telling game

[restive tusk]

fun concept, put it looks like gameplay hinges too much on VR bad controls like those other games

VR surgeon etc

[dry copper]

My new look

I call it super hero kitty villain

Or "Hello Kitty GOODBYE"

[restive tusk]

Goodbye Kitty

we got kicked from server 40 mins ago pfff

was trying to do mayor mission, got dragged into a public event

wasn't gonna be easy but like you said, others just carry you.
there was a guy in power armor and minigun sweeping up everything so

Got one of these.
gonna be a fun new toy

[inland oasis]

i have one of those :3

i gotta try 76 again.

last time i did i couldnt get it to look good

[restive tusk]

i was so excited i went i crafted a few hundred ammo for it, then realized i still got 4 levels to go to use it

[inland oasis]

it like didnt have 1920x1080 in borderlessw windowed

i hate that lvl locked lol. i got several lvl like 50 weapons i think

[restive tusk]

my friend has this rendering issue where decals don't render.
so blood splats and bullet holes dont show for him

he's got every graphic setting maxed

[gritty blade]

some of fallout's weapon designs are physically painful to look at with how unrealistic they are

[inland oasis]

the assualt rifle...

[restive tusk]

can't get anymore realistic than a 1700's black powder pistol tho 😁

[inland oasis]

the pipe weapons are pretty horrid tho

[restive tusk]

never enjoyed how pipe pistols look nope

[inland oasis]

they even sound cheap

[restive tusk]

but i don't really car for the realism part tbh.
it's a atomic age sci fi fantasy game anyways

[gritty blade]

AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH

[restive tusk]

i like it tbh 😁

https://tenor.com/view/kitty-puke-puke-vomit-kitty-vomit-cat-vomit-gif-10902081098279086080

also like the improvised semi rifle with a shovel handle for stock

[inland oasis]

thing would be like 50 lbs irl xD

[restive tusk]

still my go to in pistol is always the single action revolver and 10 mm

[gritty blade]

why

[restive tusk]

why not. can't argue taste

[inland oasis]

bing bong opinion wrong XD /j

fun to use tho

[restive tusk]

but laser blasters are okay tho ? 😆

[inland oasis]

theyre just big ass AAAA batteries

[restive tusk]

ah noted

[inland oasis]

railspike cannon tho :3

junkjet 😄

[restive tusk]

yea was just talking about it earlier

its big ass and clunky.
i been enjoying it in fo4 tho

[inland oasis]

junk jet is a great starter weapon thats slept on

anything junk is ammo 😄

i think the damage even depended on the item

[restive tusk]

where is that from?

[gritty blade]

that damn harpoon gun makes no sense

[restive tusk]

a mod?

[inland oasis]

junkjet?

[restive tusk]

yea i dont recall that

[gritty blade]

this mf

[restive tusk]

oh ye i dont think ive ever used that much

[inland oasis]

imma have to look it up again but i remember its in a factory either with a similar name as the gun, or u got it from a table in the mission with danse to arcjet

or whatever its called

arcJET

ahem... i think thats it

[restive tusk]

i also got that new mod that adds other ammo to the fatboy.
Like piggy banks

"official mods" that is

bethesda janky atempt at cashing in

[gritty blade]

harpoons are supposed to be attached to ropes to connect the firer with its target. this fucker fires the harpoon on its own so what's the point smh

[inland oasis]

does ur FO76 crash alot when alt+tabbing?

cuz even on windowed borderless it likes to minimize and usually crashes if i do it.

i hate games that i cant talk on discord n play at the same time

also its doing it again. i have no 1920x1080 setting... wtf

[restive tusk]

nope :/

i play on exclusive FS

[inland oasis]

this makes no sense

[restive tusk]

got discord or browser in second monitor

[inland oasis]

so do i

[restive tusk]

but yea, still minimizes when it loses focus

[inland oasis]

but fullscreen minimizes when u alt tab

bordeless doesnt

[restive tusk]

yea

[inland oasis]

in my case it is still tho

[restive tusk]

but i havent crashed from it tbh

[inland oasis]

and i have no resolution that i use

how can there not be 1920x1080 lmao

[restive tusk]

idk? show pic dunno what you mean

[inland oasis]

how can i send a pic of something NOT there lol

[restive tusk]

i mean, a pic of the other options and lacking 1080 on the list?

🤔

[inland oasis]

the fk. i alt f4 and loaded back in. now its just default on it.

bethesda i stg

welp, anyways got it on borderless 1920x1080 now.

earlier the only options were like 1600x900 etc etc. all just bad choices.

[restive tusk]

https://tenor.com/view/success-dailyshow-oprah-failure-gif-5503714

[inland oasis]

OH WOW

fullscreen i get like 60+ fps. borderless was hittin 24-30

that kinda forces my hand

[restive tusk]

yikes

[jolly cipher]

Playing with greenbeards experience:

They sure do love pressing buttons

[restive tusk]

lower your stuff Jenks.
i can hit around 100 fps if i lower my shadows and and stuff

[inland oasis]

im at a stable 50-60 now

[restive tusk]

grass fade is also less than half

[inland oasis]

thats fine for me

[restive tusk]

success :>

[inland oasis]

i have all the fades as long as it can

everything else maxed

[restive tusk]

ah ok preference.
i have shadows and grass lowered and something else, so i can hit closer to my monitor refresh rate

game looks fine either way, and bethesda at least optimizes decently

speaking of that, gonna try out the new graphic settings update on FO4

and see how many mods are broken again

https://tenor.com/view/tootsum-booptie-cant-wait-shaq-excited-gif-17310773

[inland oasis]

my buddy on console couldnt even access the mod menu lol. it was greyed out for him

[restive tusk]

sucks but oh well

it's consoles. you're lucky to even have mod access in some games

maybe its jsut weirdness from the update

[inland oasis]

lol maybe idk

muh big ole ugly tube gun

[restive tusk]

i just want bethesda to finish this crap, so we can get the script extender update, and i can finally start a SIM settlements playthrough

[inland oasis]

gotta love finding random power armor ;D

[restive tusk]

is that the one by the lumbermill where you go for a mission for the duchess

its looking familiar

[inland oasis]

uhh, im jus wandering xD

fuckin crashed

ofc

[restive tusk]

thats the one i have too, i still havent unlocked the PA station

[inland oasis]

i give up on 76

[restive tusk]

😔

[inland oasis]

they never gonna fix it

[restive tusk]

go give 4 a lookie over

what? why? so weird

oh wait

because they're just fkin using triple buffer of course...

3 x 40 = 120 mHz

still not sure why you need that as refresh rate if it's just buffer and youre locking at 40, but whatever i'm not the xpecialist here

[inland oasis]

if ur FO4 ever experiences crashes upon loading in, its prolly this. turned it off and stopped crashing

and dw, i unticked motion blur 😄

[restive tusk]

weapon debris is still not fixed on RTX generation cards yeap im aware

[inland oasis]

STILL... xD

[restive tusk]

a next gen update and they still couldnt fkin fix it

[inland oasis]

mod menu not workin for me

[restive tusk]

mod menu needed SE no ?

[inland oasis]

operation could not be completed.

in game

[restive tusk]

oh sorry, i thought you were talking about the mod settings managher

[inland oasis]

nah the default one isnt even workin

[restive tusk]

one second checking my load order and checking my game

[inland oasis]

cant even get to my load order XD

[restive tusk]

i've been using vortex since the next gen update

[inland oasis]

ugh that sucks

[inland oasis]

i clicked continue, and my save still loads xD

[restive tusk]

in skyrim if you were using mods you should never evben open that bethesda mod menu, cause it broke your whole load lorder everytime you did.
Idk if its been fixed in that last useless update

where exactly are the new options wtf

don't tell me this crap was only for consoles

[inland oasis]

yea same as i had lol

[restive tusk]

so this was only to give consoles more options??

wtf, i've been tricked

mod menu is working fine for me

[inland oasis]

forgot i had this :3

imma reload n see if it fixes it

lel worked 😄

[restive tusk]

oh nice skin

[inland oasis]

nope nvm

fk

same thing too

[restive tusk]

weird i wonder why

you have that thing edited in the .ini file to allow mods to load properly right?

[inland oasis]

https://www.reddit.com/r/Fallout4ModsXB1/comments/1ckbxao/for_everyone_that_has_the_operation_could_not_be/

not just me apperently

ive never edited anything outside of the game. i only ever used the in game mod menu

i never even used the console commands xD

apperently its an account issue but i cant be bothered to care

[restive tusk]

for a lot of mods to work properly you need to add 2 little lines to your .ini file

[inland oasis]

well my mods were working lol

just not the menu

[restive tusk]

afaik, this issue is still present to this day, but dunno

[inland oasis]

it is. that discussion is only a week ago

also discussions on steam

but i didnt know when from. like april 28th

roughly

[restive tusk]

no, i meant the issue with needing 2 lines on the ini file

[inland oasis]

oh ah

[restive tusk]

bInvalidateOlderFiles=1
sResourceDataDirsFinal=```

[inland oasis]

oh yea, thats the same as starfeild lol

[restive tusk]

yup, Creation engine BS

yea idk Jenks.. i can get in and out of bethesdas mod menu and even change stuff without problems

[inland oasis]

thats how i know its an account based issue

i cant say its THE GAME

its my physical account having the issue with it

[restive tusk]

we blame Todd

[inland oasis]

[orchid fox]

[inland oasis]

FO76

[idle saffron]

Oh rly

My reign has commenced

[orchid fox]

Ngl surprised the internet even remotely forgave the shit fo76 did

[orchid fox]

Game?

[idle saffron]

FO76

@primal loom Kidnapped me and made me a farmer (her awesome farm)

[restive tusk]

Luv it

[restive tusk]

I'm now wondering if we have any lever action rifles too. I wanna make an Arthur Morgan char

[inland oasis]

probably. idk tho. FO4 had the 45-70 lever action rifle

from far harbor

[restive tusk]

arg stop reminding me i haven't rebought the dlcs on steam this time around

just wanted nuka, far harbor and workshop. Bethy doesnt wanna do a sale now ofc

[idle saffron]

Yes, there are lever action rifles

[restive tusk]

my life is complete

just gotta grab the right outfit and hat

[dry copper]

Apex done fucked up

[dry copper]

There are copies of the GOTY edition for sale on CDKeys, activated through steam

Like $12 CAD

[restive tusk]

like G2A ? lol

[dry copper]

The keys were purchased when the game was discounted and held for resale.

No.

G2A keys are illegal

Often

Individuals can sell keys on G2A using stolen credit cards.

[restive tusk]

well not always but yea, they do the same key holding from sales thing too

have you used cdkeys?

[dry copper]

Half a dozen times.

[restive tusk]

alright if you vouch will give it a lookie

[dry copper]

Sims 4 sales are few and far between so....

They have the old sales for longer

[restive tusk]

aaannd.. just got greeted by homeworld3 ad, and reminds me i wanna try this old classic

[dry copper]

Make sure it specifically says it activates in your region

[restive tusk]

they even have CAD currency 👍

[dry copper]

They operate in multiple countries so sometimes one can miss the line where it says it activates

[restive tusk]

yup thanks for the heads up, ive used these sites before so i usually make sure :>

[dry copper]

Also, Fallout 4 GOTY is on sale at Fanatical

Same price

[restive tusk]

wonder how activating the goty edition would work on steam if i already have the basic tho 🤔

[dry copper]

If you feel more comfortable using a more official reseller.

[inland oasis]

most likely just an upgrade

[restive tusk]

when you do checkout it accounts for that, im not sure about goty edition serial key

[dry copper]

It wouldn't be an upgrade iirc

but I'm a pessimist

Wait ....does FO4 have its own launcher?

I can't remember

If it uses its own launcher it might be an upgrade that just installs the DLC

[restive tusk]

there's the little pre game launcher but not actual launcher

just the graphic settings and stuff

if you play through script extender it bypasses

they have the "season pass" for sale too.
i gotta look into it

[dry copper]

I wish there was a Fallout MMO and not just this pretend MMO limited to 24 players in an area.

Even if it was an isometric shooter like Fallout 2

[inland oasis]

i like the way it is tbh. could be better sure

[restive tusk]

Bethy got greedy after the show 😄

not gonna do any sales soon

Oh that's it.
I just need the season pass

all DLCs. no need for Goty edition

paying 2 dollars more on CDkeys but whatever

[dry copper]

heh. Fanatical has the whole fallout bundle thing going on now

Surprised they even bothered selling fallout 76 atlantic city

since that's free on 76...All you get buying that is cosmetic shit

The bundle is that, FO4 GOTY, FO3 GOTY, FONV, FO1, Tactics and Fallout 2

2 more days before Ghost of Tushima

[restive tusk]

i just realized you might be cannuck too

[dry copper]

Hah. I'm finally seeing the price of HD2 coming down from its base AAA price point

Seriously. Steam undid all of the reviews of the game that were shitting on it for that PR move.

That's bs

Just because they changed their mind at the last second does not undo their bad behavior

[restive tusk]

UH... steam has been doing that for a long time.
when theres review bombing now, they jsut get hidden

they're there, but you need to specificaally go unfilter

Thanks Mumbles im now the proud owner of all dlc's. Again

good site

soon enough fallout will be like skyrim for me.
I think in total across platforms over the years i bought Skyrim like 5 times

yea it's there

[idle saffron]

No idea where the other band went, but we are taking requests

[restive tusk]

im still bummed i can't play the tuba

[dry copper]

That is a weirdly specific thing to be bummed about

[restive tusk]

i can play all the other instruments apparently >:(

[idle saffron]

Mumbles is an expert on weirdly specific

[dry copper]

I wonder if Hades 2 is just Hades 1 with more story

They produced that game pretty fast

[restive tusk]

haha i went back to look at RIb's farm picture and we were actually using the exact same outfit 😁

@primal loom changes outfits more often than I reload my weapons

[obtuse reef]

Plot twist: he uses a melee weapon

[idle saffron]

Lol

[inland oasis]

one is dressed for war, one for social gatherings 😄

LOL as a matter of fact, that suit can be worn OVERTOP every other layer xD

and lets me keep all my armor equipped at the same time

[idle saffron]

Yeah, it's nice

[inland oasis]

i wish i had an all white suit tho haha.

chillin with chesswick II 😛

[restive tusk]

Valheim Ashlands public release is here

[inland oasis]

hopefully my new shop location is LIT....pun intended :p

[mental rose]

Square apparently drops console exclusivity practice for future releases, and Sony fanboys are not happy about it.
Good, I needed some entertainment after hard day at work

[restive tusk]

where is this shop located

btw is there even a way shops can remain in a random session while offline?

[inland oasis]

location, and as far as i know, i thought ur camps were persistant.

im not rly sure how it all works tbh. i never sold a thing. cuz idk what prices to give stuff.

i usually just trade in unwanted legendaries at sutton station at the kiosk. and then sell my guns and shit to the bot inside.

my character in this is such a heavy alcoholic xD lmao.

[restive tusk]

ill visit later see if its there.
but im afraid camps may not stay up when player is offline

[inland oasis]

yea maybe not. 9 times outta 10 when i find someones camp they aint there, but its probly them just out n about not being offline

[inland oasis]

what level are ya btw? im not very far, only lvl 51.

[restive tusk]

i just started week or so ago, after trying it couple years back 😂

trying to stay within my buddy's level range, we play only when our 3rd friend can't play another game, so we still grinding lvl 15

[inland oasis]

ah gotcha np. i only am at the level im at cuz i wander so much and kill things. id say im probably mentally still lvl 5-10 xD

[restive tusk]

that mf is dumping all on INT though, so he gets a bit ahead, i gotta go back when he's offline and grind some mobs

[inland oasis]

i have the most random "works for me" build if u can call it that lol

[obtuse reef]

My friends have an issue with progressing in games without me, because I’m two hours ahead of them

So I get off earlier than them

[inland oasis]

yea im typically the one who falls behind rather quickly

[obtuse reef]

I’m also usually the worst player

[inland oasis]

current build

[restive tusk]

i like playing with this guy cause when we do a co-op we always try to do stuff together.
Our third friend doesn't give a crap 😂
he'll go through all the content on his own and not even give heads up

[obtuse reef]

Friend 1 is the overall just best at the game usually, Friend 2 is usually the one with the most technical knowledge

[inland oasis]

i play games so wrongly cuz i just do my own thing people get irritated lol

ill learn when i feel like figuring itout haha

[obtuse reef]

If I’m not being the worst at the game, then I’m usually the most experienced (as in, most playtime)
