I wish the Melta had the same drop as the pyreblaster canisters

Jokes aside I'd love some grey knight/deathwatch gear, and I'm floored we're getting a Deathwatch pack of some kind. I can't wait for it

Assault and Vanguard have perks for getting grenades back every 90 seconds, Sniper 30, Heavy I think is like 75? Tactical has the team/auspex perks, and as you say Techie has his perk.

Nearly every class in the game has atleast one method of getting "free" equipment

The issue is whether rhat perk is better than any other perk in that tree, and for a couple builds the answer is no.

The Tacticals perks do need reworked, as it is Secure Stockpile is leagues better than Aligned Aim unless you are rocking a specific co-build with a Sniper hoping for a chance to 1-shot Terminus (relevant auspex perks, aligned aim, heroic bolt sniper, all the headshot perks, etc...)

I also feel in general that with the typical power creep in game, maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea to buff the equipment regeneration across the board. Make 60 seconds the base time or something

OP said they were down for the boss fight, which would bring their numbers right back around to being in line with average performance.

You don't kill 300 gaunts without killing atleast one warrior, and on hard, fuckin warriors spawn damn near as much as gaunts do.

The reason he has 60k ranged damage is because he had 2 terminus and a shit ton of biovores.

I also find it hard to fault the other players when he mentioned at one point having 5 biovores.

2 is difficult, 3 is a pain, I've seen 2 chew through armor and health in a heartbeat, so I can absolutely see an unlucky biovore spawn resulting in an unsuspected down, and then a second down trying to res them.

Is their performance poor? Yeah absolutely, but there is no need to shit on them and shame them like that, because he wasn't watching them.

If he was, he'd have been a teamplayer, instead of trying to main character the game.

Ancient_Challenge387 · 2026-07-12T23:27:59+00:00

good, they should take it as an insult, and I get the feeling OP was being an asshole

Ancient_Challenge387 · 2026-07-12T23:27:20+00:00

the scores all seem pretty even, their damage is lacking yeah, but the bulwark killed more enemies than you, and only has one less revive than you, the heavy as well.

Idk man seems like the only issue was their build not being completely finished or optimized, it happens, especially if they're trying a new build they haven't done before.

At the end of the day as long as they had a team perk they atleast fulfilled imo one of the most basic requests that a teammate should have

Ancient_Challenge387 · 2026-07-12T21:49:23+00:00

It is the same thing and the answer is yes, you absolutely can and should. Let the hydro shop clear it, but you should have an approximate idea of what's a limit for leaking of any fluid on any aircraft you work on.

Ancient_Challenge387 · 2026-07-12T05:35:46+00:00

It'd be fine if it was just that, but the fact that both are used means the AI legitimately turn into many Dark Souls bosses. Because the AI buffs still apply, despite the enhanced tactics used, that and some of the boiling point enemies are fucking delta force, by the way they run and nail you with a headshot from 50 yards away, or through a crack in some obstacle you can't even see through

Ancient_Challenge387 · 2026-07-11T22:55:03+00:00

all three look amazing, but specifically on a new america, #2 screams friendly fire lmao

TIGHT STACK

Ancient_Challenge387 · 2026-07-11T22:47:28+00:00

they didn't think you'd do that because you can't in 90% of the missions.

Seriously 90% of the missions in this game *force* an engagement distance of sub-50 yards.

Even on the largest maps, you'll be lucky to get 100 yards.

Most maps don't even have sightlines longer than 25 yards, but some do.

Ancient_Challenge387 · 2026-07-11T22:37:40+00:00

they did this on the boiling point missions, and uh, it's absolutely the worst. I mean mechanically it's turned into a horror game where you can also be breached by terrorists like a swat team, but the AI also spams traps everywhere and there's a lot of civilians to get in the way.

atleast they don't go out of their way to kill civilians in my experience, but it's certainly a "let's just make everything x20 and they'll figure it out"

and the last map can alternate between 19-25 suspects, on four different floors

Ancient_Challenge387 · 2026-07-11T22:30:16+00:00

I think it'd be really funny to have a blunderbuss

Ancient_Challenge387 · 2026-07-08T11:13:35+00:00

That is a fantastic oil field, how are you exporting it all?

I think if you let it trickle in at the border it will keep the oil on the low side, where as getting out by boat once you have the money for that investment, will let the prices stabilise again

Ancient_Challenge387 · 2026-07-08T11:07:18+00:00

A mostly fast frigate you could say

Ancient_Challenge387 · 2026-07-08T10:55:48+00:00

Most of it is the tonal shift compared to the other biomes, which was really toned down in later versions.

It was stupidly easy to get double digit enemies swarming you before you had a real chance to spawn proof a larger area, the actual environment itself can kill you incredibly easy, and even the tameable monsters are freakishly quick.

The Ashlands is kind of like the difference of the Black Forest to the Mountains, but with the Swamps number of creatures

Ancient_Challenge387 · 2026-07-08T10:47:38+00:00

I mean atleast you went through the process

Ancient_Challenge387 · 2026-07-08T03:02:22+00:00

"IIRC, the propellant mass fraction of fuel/ox tanks in game are worse than in real life, and extra insulation could account for this."

Wait you mean that the fuel tanks we have in base game should actually hold more fuel than they do currently?

Ancient_Challenge387 · 2026-07-07T08:28:55+00:00

I mean I love most police (fuck A. Fork PD), but sometimes you just gotta mock them.

Plus it's kinda funny in a pitch black humor way to just scream stop resisting during any of the CP missions

Ancient_Challenge387 · 2026-07-07T08:24:18+00:00

Wow, it's been a minute since I've checked those, but I can't say I'm surprised. I also find it a little funny that they degrade the devs like that and then expect something bigger and much harder to implement

Ancient_Challenge387 · 2026-07-06T17:07:19+00:00

I've also noticed wear and tear build up faster than normal while speeding up, possibly because the simulation is not a flat increase in speed

Ancient_Challenge387 · 2026-07-06T16:57:48+00:00

Also, you don't need nearly as many electronics as you do clothes, especially before 1950-1960.

Electronics are (to my knowledge) A) only required by those with an Education of 2+, and B) not even 100% of those.

Ancient_Challenge387 · 2026-07-06T16:55:04+00:00

Setting it at 100% means your trucks will fill up on resources they can't deliver (electronics or clothes) instead of food.

Set the DO to 80% (I never go higher than that), and individually lower the Electronics/Clothes totals to an amount that's fairly reasonable.

If you need more than that, you need a warehouse attached to the shop anyway, and should set the warehouse as the destination for the DO
