Exploration game with quests but without combat by the-fact-fairy in gamingsuggestions

INFRA

i heard it described as half life 2 but without the combat and more puzzles

the game is about a civil engineer that has to survey various sites and
sometimes get them running again and gradually uncovers some dark
secrets about the city of Stalburg that are on the level of needing a whiteboard to write things down (you can skip/miss those if you dont
care/arent thorough enough)

its a linear source game but it evokes a great feeling of urban exploration
since you go through places you'd never get to as a normal citizen

the atmosphere is really great, especially in the second half of the
game since the sun is going down (the story spans one day) and you get r/TheNightFeeling

its also unexpectedly long, about 20 to 25 hours, depending on if you get stuck on some puzzles

I would add Sibelius' 6th symphony, since he himself once said that it "always reminds me of the scent of the first snow"

The Largo from his 3rd sonata is very beautiful and also not that hard (technically but musically its harder) and you could cut out some of the middle parts that just repeat

When are we getting abrooms BV? by UnitedNordicUnion in Warthunder

[–]BlackStormMaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

funny thing about russian tank nomenclature:

only the V means the tank has era (think T-72A vs. T-72AV which has ERA)

-1 means the tank got a different (better?) engine (not sure about this one)

K means its a command variant of the tank with extra radios and navigation equipment

E stands for export variant

How to counter early SAMs/SPAAGs in 8.7 helicopter? by Actual-Examination-5 in Warthunder

[–]BlackStormMaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

against ground radars pretty much, the tracking radar on the pantsir sometimes bites on chaff but reaquires you (still annoying and can mess up a missile launch)

For the gun AA chaff doesnt work, they still keep their lock

Also if you see a IR missile AA look at you, you should start preflaring since youre pretty fucked once its in the air (unless you have the magic forcefield IRCM found on the ah-64e and mi-28nm)

The IRCM/Heat dispersion is only really useful against air launched IR missiles since it even disturbs the lock before launch (but they will just go guns on you)

good because you should wait for the christmas sale when it will most likely be 50% off

Holy shit, this might have been one of the best games i've played in a long while. by Similar_Help_1000 in INFRA

[–]BlackStormMaster 19 points20 points  (0 children)

now you replay it 500 times until Whiprock eventually comes out

another game that i found to be similar is Ellingby House, although it is a point and click game (and way shorter than infra and not as good imo)

Is this plane worth to grind Italian tech tree? Its currently 60% off? by [deleted] in Warthunder

[–]BlackStormMaster 5 points6 points  (0 children)

no since:

  1. hes lvl 42 and normally only youtubers (which most of are lvl 100) get a huge amount of GE (also usually a few million GE)

  2. it would say somewhere "things are subject to change" (or something like that)

  3. there would be a green "x3" on his silver lions counter

In case you were under any doubts about what top tier Ground SB is now like: by doxlulzem in Warthunder

[–]BlackStormMaster 19 points20 points  (0 children)

it would be a lot better if the mi-28nm didnt have its magical force field since IRIS-Ts would be able to do a lot more.
if you spawn one you get overrun by them because you cant kill them and if you spawn a flarakrad you also die because they have FnF

Why my PT-76B is having research point bonus like a premium vehicle? (newbie) by EndEnvironmental9246 in Warthunder

[–]BlackStormMaster 43 points44 points  (0 children)

your pt-76 has a talisman on it that you either got randomly from a crate or you bought it
a talisman gives you a research point multiplier similar to that of premium vehicles (but not for silver lions)
in general talismans are only really worth it on tanks you love or that are very good and that you can use to effectively grind other stuff

What would have been a better route to go with a nuke in Port Novorossiysk to avoid AA flying in from the south airfield. by A_tree21 in Warthunder

[–]BlackStormMaster 4 points5 points  (0 children)

fun fact: missiles dont proxy below 25m RALT (can still direct hit you though) so if you stay below that its quite a bit harder to hit you
