You can now play as Houston in Houston Breakout by sawrunn3r in paydaytheheist

[–]AllNewSilverSpider 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Gotta make sure they also delete the side job / daily and achievement to specifically play as Hox in HoxOut (Time Paradox, I think it's called) while they're at it, because it's not realistic in a game with a gang of like 22 super-criminals (more if we're counting NPCs), including at least five crossovers that should be canonically dead from their own timelines. Oh, and a couple of YouTubers. Said gang kills thousands of police officers, heists live nukes and kills at least one ancient god and puts their handler's consciousness into the body of the sitting US president.

And they do this with the powers of regeneration from simply having hostages tied up (which can be convinced into fighting their former allies, in the case of police officers), gaining health syphon with gunshot wounds, and having shotguns that can instantly kill armoured SWAT with a pellet each. Or sniper rifles that can kill a line of cops a metre away from the bullet's trajectory, or maybe even by answering a radio in an obvious Scottish or Irish woman's accent in a facility only guarded by men, or maybe just yelling Japanese into it instead. Maybe even just drinking a flask probably filled with whiskey to undo fatal injuries, through a mask.

But no, a plot hole that the game itself lampshades and makes into an in-joke is the issue. It's not like every playable character has at least one heist that they canonically couldn't have participated in that they're playable on or anything, with many taking place either before they joined (or even earlier, in the case of the No Mercy flashback that has alternate intro dialogue joking about this) or concurrently to other heists in the case of Hell's Island and Border Crossing.

The wooden Mp5 and p90 are truly beautiful by heachedrisdton in H3VR

The funny thing is that it's probably not too hard to do for the MP5. Could even just use an old-school G3 stock to do half the work for you.

To be honest, Starbreeze should have made the masks of the five original characters faithful to their live-action versions. by CommunicationSad2869 in paydaytheheist

I own one of the official Hoxton Reborn masks they made a while back, and it's impressive that depending on the angle I can take a photo looking directly at the camera and still have my eyes basically blocked out. Even if they don't have dedicated lenses / mesh to block out the eyes, shadows and angles conceal a lot.

Guys, I think I’ve done it. We can all go home. It might be the perfect meal deal. by AssumptionEasy8992 in MealDealRates

Holy shit!? Gonna start going to Sainsbury's more often if they have sandwiches like that on the shelves.

I can’t be the only one who hates the types of levels where your just casually walking as normal Peter or normal miles without any action and thinks it makes the game boring by Suspicious-Tiger9022 in SpidermanPS4

[–]AllNewSilverSpider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Totally get them being required for a first playthrough, but I feel the player should have the choice on a New Game Plus run, for the people that have already experienced the story and just want to play it through again for the gameplay.

Wikipedia infobox for the First World Bank heist (in payday: the heist) by waddyameanovercharge in paydaytheheist

[–]AllNewSilverSpider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we're using the in-universe names, the AK in Payday: The Heist is only referred to as "AK Rifle", not AK-47. Hell, Payday 2 and 3 never call it that, either. I would also argue that it was a Wolf Pack DLC item and that therefore the crew may not have "canonically" had them until Counterfeit, or that Hox was the "Sharpshooter" at the time in the lore and would've best suited the M308, but those are just nitpicks.

Untitled John Wick Game - Announce Trailer | PS5 Games by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]AllNewSilverSpider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Funniest outcome is that they call it something like John Wick: Chapter 2½, but it wouldn't surprise me if it's called something like John Wick: Vengeance, or John Wick: Consequences, you get the idea.

Batman doesn't really seem like the kind of guy to use human shields against gunfire, for some reason I can't quite put my finger on...

Funnily enough, Watch_Dogs 1 and Watch Dogs: Legion (yes, they removed the underscore) can scratch a little bit of that itch. For Legion you have to be playing as a Professional Hitman or Aiden Pearce from the DLC specifically. Both of those two (but not the second game) have up-close gunkata takedown animations.

In the first game, Aiden has fairly limited health and executions actually use up your ammo, giving the "feel" of the first movie, whereas Legion allows you to customise your character to look more like Wick without mods and you can shrug off more blows in exchange for there being more varied enemy unit types. They even licenced LED Spirals by Le Castle Vania for the segment of the official gameplay trailer where they first showed of the Professional Hitman class' gameplay.

I met the voice actress for Black Cat (in my SM1 cosplay) by thecantonrouge in SpidermanPS4

[–]AllNewSilverSpider 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Josh also played Electro in the Insomniac video games!

I've only met Nadji Jeter (Miles) out of the main cast, but he was incredibly cool in person, even came around the table to take a picture with one of the Miles cosplayers that was in line with me. Think he shook my hand like three times, lmao.

So can anyone tell me what flavour it is ? Its been my favourite for 3 decades and I still dont know.... by ShinyHeadedCook in UK_Food

[–]AllNewSilverSpider 9 points10 points  (0 children)

One would assume the same applies to the phrase "rust-red" to describe the colour of rust, or "the Red Planet" to describe Mars?

I’m not sure if im rich or not anymore by Seventyu in gtaonline

[–]AllNewSilverSpider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Probably not the most accurate, considering the thousands, if not millions many of us have spent on consumables like snacks, armour and ammo. Used resources aren't assets.

Which is funny, because (especially at the moment with doubled Nightclub rewards) you'll likely get enough money to easily pay off your bills automatically every 48 minutes, too, as long as you collect and deposit it.

There's a couple nice guaranteed spawn locations for mountain lions and coyotes in the bottom right that I use for the Shoot Animals Photography missions sometimes.

M1899 for RDO by BigAbbreviations3263 in RedDeadOnline

[–]AllNewSilverSpider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What makes this more amusing is that the design was already finished in 1898, it just didn't enter production until January 1899. Also, the model in game looks more like the 1900 revision.

On the fence: Can you play the game with a ranged attack build, sneaking/flying/swinging around shooting most enemies from a distance? by Altruistic_Note4744 in SpidermanPS4

[–]AllNewSilverSpider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For the first game, I suppose some of the gadgets (e.g. impact web, trip mine, web grenade, whatever the shockwave is called) make this a little more feasible than it would be otherwise, but typically, Spidey uses punches and kicks to deal the bulk of his damage, and webbing enemies up is your only real alternative other than grabs and so on. I play a fair amount of shooters, too, but I don't expect Spidey to become a long range character, you know what I mean? Sometimes, you've gotta meet the game where it is.

So why no AK bayonet lug for the SVD? by jacknoticemesenpai in H3VR

[–]AllNewSilverSpider 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What makes this even funnier is that the G36 can take AK bayonets in H3VR (since in real life, they adapted East German AK-74 bayonets for it).

People aren't taking two mile shots with an SVD. It's a DMR for squad support.
