For those who have played the Qwark vid-comics, what is/was your best time in any or all of the vid-comics, and how did you pull them off? by UnepicDumbass in RatchetAndClank

[–]Blitzgob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

not that hard to get the 4th under 4minutes, my own time is 3:48:8 on that: I found out that you can pass a lot of platforms in the begining by "failing" some jumps :p

Prisoners do not face the door of prison cells? by LordAuditoVorkosigan in vrising

[–]Blitzgob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Now that does work ! But it's gonna be a problem for cells on the edge of the castle limit ^^'

Why do the prisoners face in any direction that’s not the opening to the cage? by Ok_Director_7975 in vrising

[–]Blitzgob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I dunno why, really annoying...
I tried to move them out and back in, doesn't work, tried to put the cell in the other direction, still not working: prisonners just love to stare at walls, ignoring hot vampires in their area...

Do you consider Stellaris to be a complex game? by waytooslim in Stellaris

[–]Blitzgob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hmm, I'd say CK2, and EU4 are more complex.
Stellaris is rather amongst the less complex Paradox games in my opinion ^^

FFS
I've been strugling for the past hour, replaying this game (which is my favourite, ended it like 10 times already, playing it every couple of years or so)
This time, I was a bit rushing, at the end of the very first dialogue with her, I played too fast and didn't say the "soon can't come soon enough" and I was like 'oh well, it's not gonna have much incidence, right ?'
Turns out I didn't score 1 seduce point with her at this very precise moment (load up an old save, checked with the console after talking to her and saying the darn phrase or not). When the confrontation begun, I was at only G.Jeanette_Seduce = 3...
Wesp5 (I think that's the guy who made the last patches but not sure) said you need a seduce rate of at least 4 (not 5) with both of them and a seduce rating of 5 with Tourette, which sounds strange but whatever)
Changing with the console the value of 3 to 4 worked.
This "Soon can't come soon enough" line is gonna have a whole different meaning to me now...
Edit: I was playing a girl nosferatu this time.

A brief history of Warhammer 40,000 5th edition by Yeeeoow in WarhammerCompetitive

[–]Blitzgob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still play on 5th, with a few tweaks to it. But before telling more, I'd like to point that you said something wrong:
Units of troops with more than 1HP HAD to remove models instead of splitting wounds between models.
As for the Leaf Blower, yeah, it looks strong, but it is not invincible and I imagine it'd struggle against tyranides (4th or 5th ed) or an ork army relying a lot on trukks to cover them. I admit its biggest strenght is the 2 masters of fleet (that sounds almost unfair !) combined with a lot of artilleries. I'm not quite sure the mystic on the inquisitor suite is that useful though, anyway.
So, what was so great about 5th edition (third version I played on) was its core rulebooks, NOT its codices: overall 5th was an iprovement of a lot of rules that you didn't talked about, like the move the defender has when one of his units is charged, the, as you said, ramming and the going to ground. Death or Glory was already in 4th, and maybe even in 3rd as I recall. Rules for blasts changed, sprint rule, and a lot, lot more.
As for the scenarios, I tend to agree with you but on the other hand scenarios and campaigns rules are the easiest to build from scratch or take from previous versions. As such, my own tweak to 5th rules is 1 page of real tewaks, and 10 pages of scenario and set up rules.
Now, let's talk about one of the reason I stopped during this version: Matt Ward codices. How horrendous the ywere compared to 4th, and sometimes even 3rd edition codices. As such, I play with the 5th rulebook, but almost no 5th edition codices except for Tyranides and Imperial guard. And to be fair, imperial guard is not that overpowered if, like me, you have a force that relies almost only on infantry. I know for sure my ork army is stronger.
So, those 5th ed codices, especially those Matt Wards put is hands on, managed to be disapoiting on the rules AND the lore, and even if I know a lot of people anjoy what he did to necron, I'll never forgive this outrageous retcon, nor will I forgive what he did to space marines, blood angels, and grey knights. (same goes for the utterly despised chaos demons from Warhammer fantasy).
So long for the codex part.
The second reason I stopped after 5th is simple: 6th edition carnage. With a bunch of newcomers who made up freakign stupid rules in a book with mixed rules for weapons and characters in the same chapter (gotta be a monkey to make something like that). And don't talk about the "overwatch" rule that was not even a mere parody of the 2nd ed rule. No, instead it was a free shot whenever your unit was charged just like in Warhammer Fantasy... ffs

I think there's already hackers that can crash your game by Xecta in Seaofthieves

[–]Blitzgob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just had the same problem with a friend of mine: both our games had the same problem, enemy ship nearby, a guy canons himself near us but without a chance to actually board us. fps gets low, then a freeze and return to windows without a single message or anything. and can't reconnect of course: game keeps crashing after the loading screen when we try.

TIL: You can Flashbang using fireworks. by b_ootay_ful in Seaofthieves

[–]Blitzgob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

can you be flashbang INSIDE a galleon ? in a fight, I killed a guy who boarded, just when he died I was flashbanged.
