cant remember but its alright

snow hull
#

that first episode, tell me you didnt immediately think of the Blackhawk Down scene of the helicopter crashing in Mog. because that was literally a slightly altered rip of the video feeds from the second crash scene.

#

sorry, wrong reply tag, that was meant for @frozen sparrow

frozen sparrow
#

i’ve not seen Black Hawk Down but that whole scene was boring, they could’ve halved the run time or added some black market bioweapons

snow hull
#

you HAVENT seen BlackHawk Down?

#

well okay then

#

sent you a PM

#

tell me that opening RE Scene where they showed the video feeds is not a rip of this above portion of BHD

are DE preparing something epic for tennocon? It seems live new war gameplay :O

random skiff
#

They have confirmed New War being "shown" in 4 days time.

#

I'm putting 20p down on Duviri not being more than hinted at.

hollow scarab
#

holy bloody hell it seems poe will be the battle ground

#

Duviri is next year, they already said that months ago

random skiff
#

They also said it was "up soon" back when it was first announced, and "War Within" was what, 6 months late?
I'll believe DE hit the right time for something when they actually do it.

hollow scarab
#

basically duviri was planned for this year

#

but in a stream a few months back they couldnt work on some aspect because of the work from home situation

#

plus i wanna bet they first want to finish the new war so that afterwards duviri will continue

random skiff
#

Oh I know why, but that doesn't excuse DE for being late for literally everything else, including that as it was announced in July 2019.
I love the game, but they really need better time management.

#

remember when New War was supposed to come out in 2019? I remembers.

hollow scarab
#

nah they were too vocal about their stuff, having the bad habit to announce it before itbwas even ready

random skiff
#

oh well aware of that. War Within is coming to mind here.

hollow scarab
#

New war was planned to stretch over multiple instances

#

was never a single story, play it and toss it to the side

#

i strongly believe that even what they will show will be just a brief introduction

random skiff
#

No offence meant and I hope someone gets new info out of that, but I am aware. I'm....quite invested in WF.

hollow scarab
#

i cant even remember when i started playing it..6 years ago maybe??..

random skiff
#

I now measure my playtime in drastic map changes.

hollow scarab
#

more like drastic content changes

#

a new warframe once in a while isnt quite content

random skiff
#

nah, i mean that literally. Remember before we had the Orbiter?

#

mod cards.

hollow scarab
#

ohh yeah

random skiff
#

i still remember when everyone lost their minds over Second Dream reveal, the zariman 10-0 info being validated, the rhino lore being shown in a new light.

hollow scarab
#

i have a strong feeling that the man in the wall has a big part in duviri

#

or duviri will start something else

#

as many said about duviri, our current tennos maybe arent the same ones from 10-0

random skiff
#

I mean that's a theory, but the dialogue in Second Dream does directly reference that we remember what happened during the first Void Storm.

#

although DE realising they accidentally made Hayden Tenno during Duviri will never not be funny to me.

random skiff
#

damn riposting in v2 is weird AF.
for a start....its not riposting. Its just a fancy block.

lost girder
#

warframe? i starting playing a little of that a couple years ago... but because i followed it in beta i have a badge that labels me as an OG player (and makes me look like a poser).

#

i always mean to go back and play, but it keeps slipping my memory.

empty oasis

ah gotcha, never saw the third one haha

random skiff
#

2 was pretty good, still kinda feels like they shoulda stopped at 1 tho

empty oasis
#

for sure

#

I actually love how dated the movie is because it's such a time piece

sacred snow
#

its been a wild ride,gentlemen and ladies

random skiff
#

ta
i honestly think thats gonna go relatively quickly.

sacred snow
#

why?

#

its superior compared to normal forms of hacking

random skiff
#

because whats the one thing publishers hate more than anything else?

#

losing money.

#

a game could explode inside your console and publishers wouldnt fix it until it started eating into their revenue

sacred snow
#

like that's gonna stop them

#

remember Warzone?PUBG?have we learned nothing from them?

random skiff
#

you mean relatively new games that have a tiny portion of cheaters compared to legit players?

sacred snow
#

i wouldnt call Warzone's playerbase tiny

random skiff
#

the amount of cheaters, thanh

sacred snow
#

still doesnt change things

random skiff
#

its a tiny, tiny portion of ppl who do it at all, they just like to shout about it loudly.

sacred snow
#

the game's been having issues with hacking ever since the Cold War/Warzone merging thing

random skiff
#

so? every game has issues with "hacking".

#

its just a part of online gaming, someone is going to try and cheat to be better

#

hell, ME3's CoOp mode had "hackers" and that is entirely PvE.

#

hype sells, so a news outlet isnt gonna go "theres a few cheaters out there but overall you probably wont run into one unless you play for hundreds of hours"

#

the headline will be "cheaters overrun CoD lobbies"

sacred snow
#

convincing

random skiff
#

recognising hype is a worthwhile skill, but in any case devs do want to remove cheaters. It ruins their game.
trust in that something about this AI thing will be solved soon, whether they just block it from running at all or a cease+desist letter goes to the creators.

sacred snow
#

if cease and desist letter work then why havent they done that before?

random skiff
#

lawyers dont move fast

sacred snow
#

yeah,so why should we believe that Activision can send a letter to the creator?

#

or any publishers?

random skiff
#

because "not moving fast" isnt the same as standing still.

#

just let the story play itself out, something will be done.

sacred snow
#

hope so

oak oracle
#

I for one welcome our new pve overlords

sacred snow

i need names

#

Been watching a show called brooklyn 99

#

its a sitcom about nypd

#

So since division is having their own netflix show, what would happen kf crossover happens?

random skiff
#

You are aware that Div2 takes place after most of the world has died, right?

#

just a minor plot-point, easy to miss.

frozen sparrow
#

I’m mildly surprised there isn’t a Brooklyn 9-9 reference in Precinct Siege

random skiff
#

idk about that show, every time i try to watch it something just seems off to me.

frozen sparrow
#

yea I watched some of it, it was... alright

#

seen better but seen worse

amber horizon
frozen sparrow
#

Only if Ash gets in 😤

shy vine
#

Im not a total fan, but if Ash gets in.. im down for it.

#

Give me some melee variety by this point really... More than just a "shove".

#

A one two punch, shove, shot... something.. i mean come on.

#

I was trained in simple CQB, so thinking an agent who is way more trained than I should be able to pull basic John Wick shit.

#

Give me action Ubi!

#

Also.. hello chat.

#

Aspect.. i see you lerking. What say you on simple animation on takedowns in Div2, aka GR:AW style?

amber horizon
#

simple, sure

shy vine
#

When hp allows of course

amber horizon
#

unalerted, non-goldbar i'd say

#

then goldbar at like 10%

shy vine
#

Just 10?

#

Unaware... why not push it to 25?

amber horizon
#

because an unaware enemy cannot reach 25%

#

as soon as they get hurt they are "aware"

shy vine
#

Fair

amber horizon
#

i mean, finishers and melee takedowns make more sense in ghost recon than here

#

its much more stealth oriented

#

agents arent exactly the quietest bunch

shy vine
#

Again, i agree

random skiff
#

the finishers in Breakpoint were fun.

amber horizon

shy vine
#

Kelso.. lets blow a section out of a motel...

random skiff
#

"Grand Washington Motel" doesnt have the same ring to it.

shy vine
#

Id just love some more melee love

amber horizon
#

slashing people's legs out from under them never got old

shy vine
#

True

#

Or a muzzle thump to the chest

amber horizon
#

smokebomb then takedown chain, always nice

shy vine
#

that shit never gets old

#

I guess i want more Clancy and less Ubi by this point.

amber horizon
#

i know people call it a bad game, but i dont really care, it felt nice enough and i had fun playing it

shy vine
#

Its an awesome game, cant hate it really for me anyway

#

Does what it sets out to

amber horizon
#

story coulda been better but like

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

wasnt expecting a mindblowing story, just some dumb fun in a cool place

shy vine
#

Agreed, its a fun playground

#

Here's hoping for a Div3 to take up the mantel? I guess.

#

I guess i miss GR:AW more than I realize, gameplay mechanics wise. Would love more melee love. As much as I enjoy gunplay, I want interactions to mean something, to include fucking someones chin up with the butt of my rifle i guess

shy vine

shy vine
#

Recently played GR:FS and man the gun play and melee was really fun. Only reason I mentioned the games. Would love some simple take down on low HP enemies to make engagements more interactive and enjoyable.

Make us feel like a Agent, trained to.. you know.. take down people. In trained fashion.

Its the force you could really appreciate, if they werent so stuck on a paycheck really.

#

PMC's... amiright? hah.. ha ha... ha... -_-

#

Rivens.. what have you threatened LMB with? 😆

#

Iv never seen them so obedient.

random skiff
#

I wouldn't call it a threat exactly.

shy vine
#

But it was definitely a power play of some sort.

#

Not even a simple rebuke from LMB.. well.. Riven what have you done indeed! lol

#

(please don't hate me for this btw, its for my own amusement. ) Love you mods. >_> Im instagating.. i know...

#

I want to buy Sonic Mania.. but im hesitant.

umbral lake
#

Sonic

amber horizon
#

yes

umbral lake
#

hmmm.... I mean I really have both good and bad memories regarding the franchise

#

I really enjoyed the DS games and i actually liked "his world"

shy vine
#

Seriously though.. im a Quake, Unreal, Duke, Doom kinda guy

umbral lake
#

but that one guy named CWC ruined all the reputation I had towards the franchise

shy vine
#

I like my 90's violence and gore unhinged...

amber horizon
#

boomer.

shy vine
#

True american fashion i guess.

umbral lake
#

Boomer is also a faction in Fallout New Vegas, and they use explosives

#

Thinking of it, there are going to be cleaners who are also a boomer(in a generation sense)

#

So we can call them, Cleaner-Boomers. Probably Joe Ferro is even one

shy vine
#

Joe was actually really close to someone I can relate to.. sadly.

umbral lake
#

Bliss is probably a boomer too

shy vine
#

Bliss was an old bastard outside his prime.

umbral lake
#

I dunno about that, cleaners are my second hated faction while LMB, True Sons, Black Tusks share the first place in my hatometer

#

My least hated faction is probably the outcasts, most likelt. because like how u relate to joe I relate more to them

shy vine
#

Oh i disagree with their antics... but relatabilitiy is a different matter.

#

I hate the outcasts too. Way too radical.

umbral lake
#

And of course, Rikers I do relate with their motives but their methods of preying the weak place them in a permanent second place alongside the hyenas

shy vine
#

Joe was someone who had purpose, twisted as it was

umbral lake
#

Rioters... welll.. they are more of a 1.5th place. Mostly because they have literally no ideology to follow.

frozen sparrow
#

partially

umbral lake
#

But among the enemy factions, I find outcasts to be least hated

random skiff
#

They're anti-vaxers tho.

umbral lake
#

I can relate to them really well, tbh the Evelyn video where people line up to hammer the architect? That actually was kinda satisfying cuz they are all getting their equal chance of vengeance, although misguided.

random skiff
#

I mean yeah their backstory is sad, but the actions since kinda don't justify it.

umbral lake
random skiff
#

isn't that the main motivation of the LMB once you kill their boss?

umbral lake
#

LMB are fascists, nuff said

random skiff
#

ill take a facist over a person literally trying to spread more Green Poison.

shy vine
#

^

umbral lake
#

Ill take homo sapiens going extinct than fascism... but lets not go overboard

shy vine
#

Its not right.. but its more right to choose that...

random skiff
#

Outcasts remind me of that one Hyena who took a dump in a water tower.

#

just more technical.

umbral lake
#

TBH hyenas are idiots.They are smart in a way they organize themselves but in the end they are just traditional opportunistic raiders in a post apocalypse setting

shy vine
#

You have someone wanting to spread a viral agent to the masses, over someone who just wants to be "king"... ill choose the king.. only to kill them. of course.

random skiff
#

Hey at least the LMB are easy to pick out of a crowd.
outcasts literally go undercover.

#

also they look a bit like that Mr Bean thing where he puts tape on his face.

shy vine
#

Path of least resistance..

random skiff
#

tbh I don't see a reason why you'd need to pick at all. Just shoot them both.

shy vine
#

Most definable choice

random skiff
#

I guess gun to my head, I'd take the bullet. but gun to a persons head that i like, uh, cleaners at the start.
"by any means necessary" was their thing and yeah hard to argue. Over time that was ruined but yeah.

#

shy vine
#

Cold? In hells land?

random skiff
#

Its winter here.

#

Nothing trying to eat you or what not?

random skiff
#

deserts are actual real cold of a night time, but yeah almost no one here lives in the desert, its all coastal. So even colder.

shy vine
#

Im aware of how cold deserts get (Iraq for 16 months) but I figured it was somewhat pleasant there? lol

random skiff
#

Most of the time it's nice, but we do get snow on occasion.

Pleasant as in ignoring the wildlife that wants to eat you...

So, funny story - I swung by the gas station by my house for my usual soda and two beers and the kid behind the counter tells me that the Amazon driver that tried to kick the bathroom door open on me has been coming by and continually starting shit with other customers to the point that they banned her from the store and reported her to Amazon.

Firstly I hope u don’t mean u drink both those beers b4 leaving

Also wtf

Why is a Amazon driver so anger

They deliver packages all day

I get it if they dealt with ppl all day

From what I hear it's not the best place to work, even being a delivery driver

merry wren
#

In case you didn't catch my story the other day, I was at the gas station to get a drink and an impatient Amazon driver repeatedly tried kicking the bathroom door open not a minute after I got in there and then yelled at me when I opened the door that I needed to get out of her way because she's gonna be late getting back on her route. Told her "not my problem" and shut and locked the door again so I could wash my hands.

just like when ppl said the ps5 was gonna kill pc gaming

never gonna happen

yet in practice its completly garbage compared to a pc

even a low end pc

ps5 is basically a good value prebuilt for playing games with controller/playstation exclusives

good value at base price, anyway..

nah drops are always borked as shit

lost girder

everything else worked fine, the tannuki stuff wasnt even linked to twitch's inventory system.

the people complaining about loki didnt read the disclaimer right under where they claimed the gear that says it could take some time to appear in the in-game inventory.

#

or they didnt relink to twitch recently

hmm... people who were in the relay think its because the relay was broken. fair enough. got a good haul, and good news about warframe, so im happy

the armor and skin will be probably handle out next week since the relays couldnt handle lol

# dense parcel Just finished black widow not bad movie 8 like the blonde girl

theres two parts that semi-bothered me, 1.) when they have the macguffin, the first thing 2 "highly trained super spies" did was leave it in the kitchen next to an open window, and then go have a convo in a room... on the other side of the house. then, the payoff was nothing because they grab it off in less than a second making it all meaningless, just like 2.) when widow 2 gets tranq'd, theres zero payoff, it literally had zero effect later, she never even becomes drowsy at any point.

#

its like they removed the parts of the scenes that made them make sense.

random skiff
#

oh so its got an idiot plot?

lost girder
#

twice. thank god the sherriff from stranger things was so good in it.

random skiff
#

oh new Hellboy.

#

maybe its just because i havent seen most of them, but the later-day Marvel movies seem kinda caught up in themselves. Would you say that's the case?

lost girder
#

otherwise it's just an origin story/weak explaination why she was ready "to go"/set-up for widow II/setting up falcon and winter soldier (because it was supposed to release before?)

#

which is lame, making it just a tie-in

#

well, everything theyre releasing is strongly used to tie-in to other projects.

late vine
#

although tbf I did enjoy Wandavision, it was refreshingly different and weird

lost girder
#

it reminds me of how they ruined iron man... was it 3, the "demon in the bottle arc" that they messed up because they wanted to use iron mans success to make people go back and watch avengers 1.

loki was good at first, but I felt it got a bit too implausible (weird criticism, I know) after a few episdoes. I literally thought most of one episode was actually one of the antagonists mind-games, it seemed so out of character

random skiff
lost girder
#

i mean, thor only became a mega favorite once they let chris cut loose.

late vine
#

yeah, he's clearly more at home with humour than anger

random skiff
#

oh Hemsworth? yeah thats the Aus' sense of humour. It's weird to see it in an american movie.

#

i think thats why i liked Ragnarok so much, kiwi (NZ) director, aus main actor and kiwi 2ndry main actor.

late vine
#

I'm loving that the NZ sense of humour is getting more hollywood time too, thanks to Taika or whatever his name is

#

have you seen Hunt for the Wilderpeople?

actually no, but i was a massive fan of Flight of the Conchords back in the day.

oh yeah hbo flight of the concord... man, that takes me back

huh, i guess that's why jerome works with him

i feel i should translate, kinda forgot to.
kiwi = australian slang for NZ local.

jerome was the one with glasses, right?

Yeah, I think most westerners are aware of that (and I did live in NZ for 6 years, so I'm doubly aware)

random skiff

just making sure, i got asked the other day on a server what "bloke" meant lol

lost girder

we all know, but i doubt most people are aware of the tiny bird

we don't really think too hard... on much

crikey, bloke? I can understand people not getting something like jandals or ute, or dunny. But everyone in England uses bloke sometimes, surely

random skiff

oh god that sentence hurt my australian soul

unless they were eastern european maybe

random skiff

jandals is NZ

thongs here in aus

is it NZ only? I just assumed most NZ slang is Aussie too

random skiff
#

absolutely yes lol

#

you use jandals here everyone will laugh at you

late vine
#

although tbf I don't think kiwis say Dunny

random skiff
#

its like "chilly bin" is NZ slang for "esky".

random skiff
lost girder
#

some americans dont even know the common cognates (lift/elevator, chips/crisps, etc), so im not surprised.

random skiff
#

a lot of the heavier aus slang is only really said by our version of rednecks.

lost girder
#

in hawaii, we say rubbish instead of trash, and someone in cali gave me shit

late vine
#

fair enough, I've probably just picked it up from books

late vine
#

rubbish in England too

let you in on a secret: if its said in england, its most likely said in aus too. We take almost all of ours from theirs and modify it.

#

kinda depends on the area tho

lost girder
lost girder
random skiff
#

our redneck equivelant is more "no shirt, boardshorts, thongs, cheap sunglasses"

lost girder
#

probably why we all say "no worries"

random skiff
#

yeah lol we like to use that a lot here

late vine
#

what always made me laugh about NZ terms was that they say 'Chips' in the American sense (what we call Crisps) and 'Chips' in the English sense (what Americans call 'Fries')

random skiff
#

its funny, in aus we use chips for crisps and fries.

#

"hot chips" if theyre cooked

late vine
#

yeah, so you have to rely on context to work out which one they mean

lost girder
#

fries is just the lazy way, used to be "french fried potatoes" because thomas jefferson ONE time called them "potatoes fried in the french fashion"

late vine
#

or they try and clarify it by calling them 'potato chips' which really doesnt help

lost girder
#

and the french part just means its cut julian style

random skiff
#

and dont get me started on our weird obsession with Schnitzel.

late vine
lost girder
#

what irks me is when i hear people talk like "chips" makes so much more sense than "crisps", theyre kinda equally non-specific

random skiff
late vine
#

Schnitzel is something I miss after coming back to England - almost no German food or restaurants here at all

#

crisps are crisp in texture though, whereas chips are usually not

random skiff
#

the biggest one though: biscuit vs cookie vs scone.

lost girder

its cuz that one refers to the form

(tbh, i was kinda hoping for zombies like that to appear in that div2 RE event)

frozen sparrow
#

the division is set in 2029

sacred snow
#

just sayin'

frozen sparrow
#

yes, cus wildlands is set in 2019

#

before the flu means no conflict.

#

though honestly, the idea that that one chelsea piers sign was meant to be the sole item that determines the set-time opposed to just being a randomly selected day-of-the-month doesnt seem like something the devs would do after spending a fuck ton of time obscuring the time-setting.

Who is?

me

lost girder
#

when people say 2029, theyre talking about 1 asset piece in the game

random skiff
#

Div once had some official concept art where it specifically mentions Div1 taking place in 2019.

#

thats since been edited though, so take your pick.

frozen sparrow
#

the sign is the only evidence we have and it’s a date that makes sense

lost girder
#

i think the time-setting is supposed to scale with whatever the actual year is.

random skiff
#

I think from that div2shrug meme thats ingame alone, we know its not set 10 years in the future.

#

(that was a joke, obviously not)

#

but it does raise an interesting point about real world politics and divs realism.
the further it takes place in the future, the less current technology used by civvies ingame makes sense.

random skiff
#

oh of course, but it reveals the innate problems with doing that, the further in the future it takes place.

#

Anyone looking at that new Ubi game right now?

#

I need to bleach my eyes right fucking now

random skiff
#

the chat is all "oh no" lol

frozen sparrow
#

yea just watched the reveal

random skiff
#

i hope someone enjoys it, but i really dont think it was a good idea.

frozen sparrow
#

already tried to sign up for early access but it doesnt seem to be working

sacred snow
#

-Shows Outcast using HIVE
-Not having the Division as a faction
Yep they’re fucked

#

Why not have Ghost and Division as factions?

#

It’s not Tom Clancy’s The Cleaners or TC The Outcast

#

Or fucking Wolf’s Recon

frozen sparrow
#

its called "XDefiant" and the characters are referred to as Defiants, its about the bad guys

#

probably because its easier to justify bad guys vs bad guys then good guys vs good guys

sacred snow
#

Fair enough

#

But…why?

amber horizon
#

(The Point)

(Thanh)

sacred snow
#

I know

#

I’m saying why did they think this is a great idea

#

The entire chat is exploding with “booo”

amber horizon
#

note: havent watched the reveal, but- since TC works like to use the grey area of right and wrong, using the general "badguys" and morally grey guys is kinda a smart move

#

Also on the "boo" thing: people are pissy they didnt get the exact game they want

#

I dont personally care, i'll likely look into it atleast a bit

sacred snow
#

Id still sign up for the beta though

#

Just gonna wait a few hours for the website to work properly

frozen sparrow
#

oh so it's not just me then?

frozen sparrow
sacred snow
#

Yup

#

Lol

#

I’m stuck at the loading screen

@drifting birch there we go

#

so yeah, KotOR was incredible. Set waaaaaay before the movies, back when there was actually a Sith Empire.

drifting birch
#

Think they'll revisit

#

Thought I heard about an old republic movie in the works at some point

random skiff
#

they actually kinda did, in a low-key way.
SWTOR (the MMO) is in the same timeline.

#

its set 300 years after, roughly.

#

oh yeah the movie they talked about, yeah thats what, pre-peqeuls?
the "Old Republic" that im talking about was like, 3000 years before the movies. It's kinda amazing actually.

drifting birch
#

Maybe it's my age but I don't think old republic will ever captivate me like new Republic

#

The movie I was thinking of was named like high republic or something

#

Or maybe it was a tv show or book

random skiff
#

you might be surprised. it allows the "good guys" to do some real evil stuff, its very much a grey area, as opposed to the usual black+white of Star Wars.

drifting birch
#

I only really know about the pretty vanilla old republic characters

random skiff
#

the major one most know is "Revan".

drifting birch
#

Yeah

#

Revan, malak, sith triumvirate and all that

random skiff
#

god that reveal in kotor was something else.

drifting birch
#

Have heard of more obscure characters like mission vao and zablar and hk but don't really know anything about them

#

I like the idea of a much larger population of sith though

random skiff
#

basically, HK-47 was an assassin droid owned by Revan, very quippy.

#

oh yeah kotor + swtor age had the sith academy going. In swtor you can actually join it as a student.

#

same with Jedi and theirs.

drifting birch
#

I don't mind it being legends

#

Big disparity in the level of power that some of these people had

#

Something about nihilus consuming planets

frozen sparrow
#

is the sith empire even canon?

drifting birch
#

I don't think so anymore

random skiff
#

Yep! all part of legends.

#

actually fun fact, they kinda accidentally made Revan canon.

drifting birch
#

I expect it to happen officially some point

#

Too popular of a character

random skiff
#

theres a line in one of the shows thats full canon where they mention part of his lightsaber was used to make this other one.

#

which means the Star Forge is canon, and i am 100% sure that will come back at some point.

drifting birch
#

In a while perhaps

#

Disney got their hands full it seems with all the new shows scheduled to release

random skiff
#

i kinda low-key thought thats what the Emperor used in TRoS

#

but nah, just some lame planet

drifting birch
#

Retcon it with your own theory

random skiff
#

actually woulda made sense too, since Rakata cloning.

#

omg why the hell didnt they do that?

frozen sparrow
#

there’s a lot of things in legends that deserve to stay there, but not everything
Starkiller and maybe Kyle Katarn too

drifting birch
#

That's what I do when there's no full explanation for some dumb shit
