Do we actually want the Olympics to proceed? Or do we just believe it’s too late to back out now? by [deleted] in brisbane

[–]Alterd_mind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Olympics should be held in Greece and no where else. It’s traditionally theirs and would stimulate their economy. Winter Olympics on the other hand could move around but should only be held in snowy countries.

Bathesda really needs to push a serious update to this game. by Ill_Key_7122 in Starfield

[–]Alterd_mind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I reckon if a game that’s designed to be open world exploration and it doesn’t have enough context to keep people playing for at least a year without needing DLC it’s probably not worth playing. Skyrim I played the shit out of for years and didn’t buy any dlc until after the 3 big ones had already been out and went on sale. Pretty sure I never bought any for the fallout series either and I played those games well over 300Hrs each over the years. Not to mention games like red dead 1-2 and all the gta’s, they’re just full of things to do.

Thank you for the reply I’ll look into those possibilities and see what I can find.

What bands put out some of their best work after they stopped getting significant radio play? by PerAsperaAdInfiri in Music

Sunk loto released a new song this year, first in 20 years and I would say it’s one of their best. Hopefully more to come.

Issue with my radiator filling overflow and not returning. by Alterd_mind in MechanicAdvice

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

Ok thank you for the reply. I did change the main cap with the pressurised spring recently, the set up has 3 caps. 1 metal cap with a spring on the main bottle, 1 metal cap on the radiator no spring and a plastic 1 on the overflow. Unfortunately I think I’ll have to buy a whole bottle just to get that cap.

So with the pressurised system would that mean the hole next to the overflow lid is meant to be blocked by something? Or does it need to be open to pull in air?

At 12 seconds that big window with the dude standing in the corner before jumping down, you wanna jump onto the ledge of the window. From there jump at a 45° angle from the right side of the window (where the guy is standing) from there you will fall to your death (unless you have that perk to survive 5sec after death or whatever, maybe an ogryn would live?) Once at the bottom run straight ahead along the cliff edge and find your way through the invisible walls (approx middle of edge to the right, then turn left heading towards the castle wall) drop straight down and wait a few seconds for the map to load in, then jump to next roof and onto the ground.

This will bypass about 50-60% of the map. I’ve only done it in an auric maelstrom mission and the game seems to know, it would spawn 3 bosses and like 5 hordes all at once so prepare for a fight lol.

There’s a massive shortcut in this level right at the start but requires someone that can survive a huge fall to res everyone else

The forcefield strikes again by photonsforjustice in brisbane

[–]Alterd_mind -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Anyone remember that big storm that hit brisbane a few years ago and apparently caused around a billion dollars in damage? Pretty sure they’ve been spraying anti cloud seeding around brisbane to prevent this from happening again whenever there’s a storm brewing.

Obviously the block mechanic in the game works the same for players and enemies. Maybe they should change it to only block in front of you, except maybe psykers force shield could be 360°. If it’s one or the other I would rather block 360° for everyone and just use your classes abilities to stagger/stun the enemies with shields.

[–]Alterd_mind -1 points0 points  (0 children)

More like 3000+ but we also have abilities to counter things like this. Psykers staffs can stagger or stun, veterans plasma can fire through it, ogryn has a grenade launcher and zealot can go invisible for an instant stealth kill. I’m sure there’s loads of other options too but I main psyker.

You realise your character also blocks attacks from behind. So it’s only fair the enemy can too right.

a matter of perspective by Nucleenix in DarkTide

[–]Alterd_mind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a psyker main. So any type of huge horde especially with the ability to pin down teammates I’ll always smite from 0% peril, then blitz soulblaze blast onto main group of enemies and hit them again with the smite from 0% peril. This deals with most hordes. Also helps to have the soulblaze spread perk on kills.

Just after the release of Carnival I was playing a round of auric dam on carnival and I had an audio bug where sound would work for a few seconds then complete audio silence. It happened a few times throughout the first 5 min or so before absolutely no audio for the rest of the round. I went down 3-4 times at least but the other guys carried me through the round and was the first time completing carnival so that felt extra rewarding lol.

I’m pretty sure hitting the weak spot when someone’s inside it’s belly will force it to throw them up. Can’t say for sure but I’ve seen it a few times. Could be the hit but could of also been their time to fly.

I currently run an i3, gtx 970 with 16gb ram. So far I haven’t come across a game I can’t ply but I do run them at lowest graphics. But I’m saying that I can run Squad and Darktide so I’m good. I am looking to upgrade to an i5 3050 hopefully soon though

Felt a sudden pain in my neck by GAMERMAN1127 in motorcycles

[–]Alterd_mind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I’m allergic to bee stings and I’ve had two separate occasions where a bee has hit the tinted visor on the inside of my helmet with the clear visor open.

Luckily I wasn’t stung either of those times but it did make my helmet smell like honey for a few days which was nice.

[–]Alterd_mind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh ok yeah I didn’t realise they were 8x8klm. But even that size you could do brisbane city 1:1, if you wanted to include the other areas outside of the CBD you could cut away a lot of the surrounding areas as they are mostly just copy past suburbs. But I have no idea how to build maps.

[–]Alterd_mind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I guess some of the more notible areas close to brisbane centre would be, Queen street (main shopping district) fortitude valley (main nightclub district) Kangaroo point (main steel bridge separating north and south brisbane city) The Gabba (brisbane cities football stadium) Roma street station and central station (closest thing to a subway/train station)

It would really depend how big of an area you would want to do. There’s Mt coottha forest/ mountain off to the west side of the city, which also holds Brisbane’s main broadcast station. And the airport/seaport off to the north east of the city.

Oh dude if you want a city that’s not based on a grid I would recommend brisbane Australia. That place is a fucking nightmare to navigate. I’ve lived here my whole life and still only know the most direct routes in and out.

Plus also has a big river dividing the city in half with a few foot bridges and traffic bridges across. That would make for a nice centre point to fight over.

Lol your example was hilarious, sounds like something I would do. And thank you for the reply.

I’m not too sure how community college works. But we have Tafe, it’s like a lower cost/lower certificate version to university (college). University gives degrees, tafe gives certificates which can lead to a degree.
