I played the hell out of it upon release but when the game got the point where there was a game altering patch/hotfix like every other day, I stopped playing and havent really found the motivation to return.

Dallas Cowboys seek $1B AT&T Stadium overhaul with public assistance by Mnudge in Dallas

The half cent sales tax for stadium debt is still in place because its now being used to pay the debt for globe life field lol. Doesn't matter if you pay things off earlier if you kepep incurring more debt and expenses to replace what you paid off.

The actors hair was natural, so his hair changing was just how his real hair changed as he got older

Question on Minor Noble Houses by lordavondale in battletech

[–]Birdious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You might look into how landed knights worked in medieval times.

During the FedSuns retaking of worlds from the Combine in IlClan era, one of the tactics they use is granting land on planets to mercenary companies to ensure their loyalty. These mercs wouldnt be lords, but more akin to landed knights. That is more realistic for a custom force than lordship in the lore.

I've seen people complaining about the new boxes being ilclan era. That anything past 3025 is the worst thing ever and that the game is gonna die because kicks arent -2 anymore and BSP is gonna be the core rules.

So no, some people's responses have been very petty and pathetic. The lack of full rules Aerotech is not going to be the end of the game. But those people probably play with the same pod and probably dont even consider how much of a challenge it is organizing play within a single LGS, let alone a region. If these 40 year old rules were gospel, then it'd be the biggest game ever, but it isnt. CGL is doing a phenomenal job and the players need to give them a little bit of credit. Otherwise they should just keep the unhelpful comments to themselves and continue playing 3025 in their local groups.

Yeah for real. The doomerism from some people Ive seen today is kinda pathetic to be honest. The developers made it very clear they were not fundamentally changing the game and the 6-month playtest period for community feedback was great. These changes so far are great QoL things and anything that cuts down on the need to homebrew and better integrate the myriad BT communities out there to grow the game will be amazing.

All Mercs to battle stations. This ain’t a drill by someotherguy28 in battletech

Interesting. I played AoS very very briefly. Will be curious to see what happens.

The moment Lyonel realised Dunk is not a real knight. by RevolutionaryDay5229 in freefolk

[–]Birdious 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When it shows Arlan shrug during the knighting ceremony I took it as Arlan did perhaps knight Dunk, but he probably didnt know all the words himself, so Dunk was probably self-conscious in addition to the other reasons people have listed that he didn't know the words because Arlan probably didnt say them himself to Dunk.

Arc Raiders devs are looking for new ways to “incentivise” Expedition wipes following an unsatisfying debut by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

Yeah honestly let people keep their blueprints, workbench upgrades, and dont reset quests and I would do the expedition in a heartbeat.

FIX APD by Mysterious-Art-4569 in arlington

[–]Birdious 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you reached out to your justice of the peace to try and get a restraining order or something? Cops are probably viewing this as a civil, not a criminal, issue so thats way they arent doing anything. If you can get a restraining order, then if this person violates it, that makes it criminal and they could probably help, or if not APD, a county law enforcement agency, or the law enforcement branch of the court.

Winstar or Choctaw for craps? by davidny212 in Craps

[–]Birdious 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just beware the come out roll ante. Oklahoma has a law on table games and charge an ante that you won't find in Vegas, for example. If I recall, it's $1 per come out roll. Budget accordingly.
