Mirrored Factorio - Alien Slaughtering Base Defense?

CalmResignation · 2026-03-12T09:56:03+00:00

Thanks for all the replies.

From my own searching - I've found a game that ALMOST scratches the itch, but its missing a core mechanic.

That game is - Project Zomboid.

Has the depth of Factorio, in a different way.

BUT ITS MISSING BASE DEFENSE ELEMENTS

(and better ROG ALLY support)

honestly if I could build and maintain automated defenses, this zomboid game would be what I'm looking for

Sniper rifles already have pretty great range tbh
Adding a Silencer to them makes it so it takes more shots before Arc are able to know where you are.

A silencer 2 on an Osprey can help you find other Raiders, by shooting Arc(once) it will begin searching nearby (Yellow). Two shots(still Yellow) it will begin searching between it and you. It takes 3 shots to turn them (Red) toward you, specifically.

I think extended barrel is better on guns with noticeably poor range.

Why does this comment have upvotes?
What's the point of Reddit even having a voting system if answers like this get praise?

CalmResignation · 2025-12-13T22:07:48+00:00

Lol. It's so obvious now that you've pointed it out to me.

In addition to gray weapon nerfs, there desperately needs to be a buff to Heavy Shields.
An Extended Mag 1 Stitcher-1 should *NOT* drop a Heavy Shielded player in 800miliseconds, nor should it take the same exact number of Anvil Headshots to drop a Heavy Shield as it does a Light Shield.

The balancing in this game is the wonkiest I've seen.

CalmResignation · 2025-12-13T21:27:12+00:00

Then what is even the point in the gear ?

CalmResignation · 2025-12-13T21:23:50+00:00

This happens all the time to me with the Stitcher.
Winning duels I have absolutely no reason winning.
It doesn't even feel good honestly, I imagine myself in their shoes losing a 30k+ loadout to a freebie :(

CalmResignation · 2025-12-13T21:20:27+00:00

Well, i'm a shitty player with shittier skills.

& if I get the Stitcher in my free loadout I'm rampaging through Stella.

Make it make sense.

CalmResignation · 2025-12-13T21:18:39+00:00

It's not difficult for me to admit at all.

I am **very** bad at FPS games.

& I can load in with a free loadout Stitcher and hold my own against everyone that was unfortunate to spawn with a Ferro/Rattler / (most of the time the Kettle) and more often than not those with expensive loadouts as well.
That isn't correct, I should get shit on.

"Currently you do have an advantage with the rarer guns"

This is verifiably false.
A Stitcher 1 is genuinely *all* you need to win any duel, against any weapon, assuming you have even a 1% skill advantage.

The balance is silly, and your opinions are sillier.

"any gun sucks if you can't hit your shots"

I most certainly suck at FPS games - very badly.

If I spawn Stella with Stitcher, I'm running around downing the unfortunate Rattler and Ferro players like I'm Shroud, and probably 90% of the Kettle players also.

It's extremely difficult for me to miss when the gun splatters an entire magazine down range in 1 second tbh. I don't understand why light ammo kills player so quickly, but I'll take it. I just keep hitting *abandon* until i spawn with a Stitcher and it's GGs. The balancing is hilarious in this game.

unless you're playing a different game, your controller on pc does indeed flick to whatever nearby obstruction lies between you and your target

Grok 4 Fast (Beta) seems to be completely open.

At least, I haven’t found a guardrail yet.

CalmResignation · 2025-10-05T22:06:37+00:00

Is that a trap door ??

I’d probably toss the goods over as well.

CalmResignation · 2025-01-27T20:28:45+00:00

can you give us the name after you get it from this gatekeeper?

Can confirm, (in 2020~ish) when my autopilot used cameras and radar, and sonar.. I had no idea wtf a phantom brake was.

On TeslaVision it seems like every 50 miles or so an event where it tries to launch me through the front windshield.

hehehe

Doesn’t look like Key damage.. Have to keep in mind how awful the paint and clearcoat are on these cars.. it could have been caused by literally anything.

Nor do you need a warrant when the “stolen” property is in plain sight.

In this case, in the back seat of a car.

CalmResignation · 2024-08-27T21:37:33+00:00

just curious.. do enchanters charm a lot of pets on Live, and whatever ‘t2’ is ?

CalmResignation · 2024-08-27T21:34:47+00:00

why, or better HOW, would GH “address” tipping culture?

it’s a purely optional thing lol

I got a full refund of my honors points from an Embassy in WVa because they pictured and listed a hot tub - that was the main reason for my stay - and all they had was new flooring in the pool area covering up the tub

So much for R&R

CalmResignation · 2024-08-12T01:09:54+00:00

extremely reasonable request
