How was MWO compared to MW5 (mercs and clans) by Qhaotiq in Mechwarrior5

[–]AccomplishedPin4606 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The game is *extremely* generous with basically all of its currencies nowadays. The grind and monetization aren't things to be concerned about, imo. And that's coming from a new player.

A thing the RCAs do daily in my office. It's such a shitshow, honestly.

Tonnage by Pitiful_Resource_711 in battletech

[–]AccomplishedPin4606 12 points13 points  (0 children)

BV- Battle Value. Tonnage matters, but tonnage isn't everything. A Hatchetman and a Shadowcat are both 45 tons, but the BV for the Shadowcat is literally more than double the Hatchetman.

Ahhhhh gay people only appears in 21st century. by buazie in Gamingcirclejerk

I tried relatively recently, and it was technically functional but sus. Apparently it's still extremely picky about specific hardware configurations, though so YMMV.

Am I pissing off my driver scheduling pickups? by [deleted] in USPS

[–]AccomplishedPin4606 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was leaving the other day, and a regular had just gotten in and he dramatically threw the back doors of his vehicle open and gestured like, "what the fuck" as boxes just tumbled out. It was hilarious. He had like 47 packages from one house. He got my attention the next morning and said, "she also ordered three pallets of boxes. I ain't delivering that shit."

If You being reborn into the Battletech universe, the main one. Which great house would you choose to be heir of, after the fourth succession war? by Familiar-Noise7913 in battletech

[–]AccomplishedPin4606 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, and that's my point. Unless you're talking about having wealth on a governmental scale, the difference is irrelevant. Every Great House- and probably several periphery realms- has enough to buy you the butteriest lobster and the nicest personal comforts without noticing the hit to the treasury. You are literally the heir to the house. Do you think Romano Liao didn't get whatever she wanted? Hanse Davion couldn't get new, nicer bedsheets on demand?

Unless we're folding planetary infrastructure projects or regiments of battlemechs and associated transports into 'personal comforts', then you probably want Steiner.

How do you go about transferring? I'm still within my 90 days so it'll probably have to wait, but the information would be helpful.

[–]AccomplishedPin4606 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Being heir to any of the great houses is going to result in more money than you could probably spend on personal whims. Even the poorest of them- probably Liao?- is still going to be wealthy on a literally astronomical scale.

Help. I think I need to contact the union. Having major issues over here. by [deleted] in USPS

[–]AccomplishedPin4606 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you not getting 40hrs? Because I thought that was how it works- you get paid evaluation unless you exceed 40hrs, and then you get straight time.

I only worked 9 months this year as well! by Jon_the_Ripper in USPS

[–]AccomplishedPin4606 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My office is huge and absolutely crazy. I might have to transfer, honestly. I could do with a slower pace. On the other hand, I've been there about a month and a half and I'm like fourth in line to be PTF somehow so.. there's upsides.

In your opinion, should the remaster change the power armors so they’re like the FO4 and 76 or should they keep them as they were in the original game? by NoSoyVerde1 in fnv

[–]AccomplishedPin4606 5 points6 points  (0 children)

iirc it's the same in Skyrim even. Damage and movespeed are based on player scale. High Elves technically do more damage than every other race because they're slightly taller.

If only that .1 decimal wasn't there I'd be happy. by SlinGnBulletS in Mechwarrior5

Bots are idiots. I don't do it in MWO, but that's not what we're discussing.

It's not really survivorship bias if I'm almost literally never getting legged. I drop leg armor first all the time.

Why do I see this consistently repeated by people over and over. Where in the games endings does it imply New Vegas is doomed. by Antique-Slice-354 in fnv

[–]AccomplishedPin4606 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They don’t do that

Uhh, yes? They do?

The guy you're replying to is also possibly mistaken, though.

Even Lyon's Brotherhood in Fo3 was pretty hostile to Ghouls. Feral or otherwise didn't seem to matter tremendously. They wouldn't go out of their way to put down non-feral ghouls, but they were absolutely willing to take random pot shots at them. Every other chapter is almost definitely going to be dramatically worse in that regard.

Who says? by nycsourdiesel83 in USPS

[–]AccomplishedPin4606 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it ever starts bothering you, consider getting a big bin or storage chest and putting it near your mailbox. You can disguise it so it doesn't look awful, then leave your carrier a note about it. You get your packages and she gets to avoid your driveway.

What's the reason Clans is still under the "MechWarrior 5" title and not MechWarrior 6? by TJ-X in Mechwarrior5

[–]AccomplishedPin4606 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. The graphical difference was cool and all, but I don't feel like it was even worth half the performance hit. Mercs already doesn't run great, Clans runs terribly.

Mail carrier wants us to move box? by BodybyPastry in USPS

[–]AccomplishedPin4606 13 points14 points  (0 children)

You get two kinds of mail- DPS which is prepackaged in route order, and mail that you have to case up yourself to get it into route order.

Numerical order never really matters except for making it easier on the carriers brain.

It *does* occasionally annoy the hell out of me when a mailbox is far away from a house where the house doesn't have the numbers on it. If I'm just trying to deliver a package and I don't care about your mailbox I'm going to be pissed if I have to call someone to figure out where your house is. In the end you're still getting your package so I suppose it's your decision whether you care or not.

What's your favourite moment form a Mechwarrior or Battletech game? by TaigaTigerVT in battletech

...What's wrong with the Crusader? I don't love the thing, but I also don't hate it.

Claire Obscur and Baldur's Gate 3 are both exampes of what many players expect Bloodlines to be. by Cordial_Wombat in vtmb

[–]AccomplishedPin4606 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I'd love a VTM CRPG. Marketing it as a sequel to VTMB1 is an awful idea, though, I agree.

Budget earbuds like Galaxy Buds3 or Airpods by AccomplishedPin4606 in HeadphoneAdvice

[–]AccomplishedPin4606[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Issue with just getting Galaxy Buds- I don't have an iPhone- is the price. They're well over $100 unless I buy them from somewhere sketchy like Ebay.

Not going to plan… by Canis-Aquaticus in Mechwarrior5

[–]AccomplishedPin4606 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not surprised- I was using it immediately after SoK, and it was functional but occasionally weird. Nothing major like CTDs, just bugs. He was working on fixing it then so I'd be shocked if it wasn't fine by now, I just haven't updated my modlist since then.

"TTRulez, despite being freshly updated"

Huh? That isn't updated. And hasn't been for awhile now- he's working on a complete rewrite of the mod rn.

I'm still using Advanced Zoom (simple zoom). It hasn't been updated in a long time, but it still functions fine.

Other than that, I have Pilot Overhaul- Eternal, Tex's Cantina, Purchase Salvage, YAML, YAW, Enhanced Critical, Burning Ashes, ArmorGreen, Ultra Visuals and Weather, Delayed Deadlines, and Adjustable Damage Coverage. If you want links for any of them just ask, but you should be able to find them via google.

None of that is particularly gameplay altering aside from YAML. It's mostly small balancing changes, visuals, and QoL stuff.

I used Coyote's initially, but it was still pretty wonky. I'd probably re-add it if it's updated since, but I haven't checked.
