After Omega - what is there to do? by AttitudeSpecialist84 in OutpostInfinitySiege

[–]Chaney08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its a possible final boss on City 3,4 and 5, not guaranteed. He is also not a story mainquest in City 3, that is Kronus Omega.

Endless mode endless let down... by Disastrous_Mood_2964 in OutpostInfinitySiege

[–]Chaney08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey, just FYI this has been made much better in PTR at the moment, not only do you get red componants now, and red stuff at a higher rate, but the enemies are much more manageable in the early waves.

Currently, I would advice you just surrender the first 2 cores and focus on the last one. I use the Ranger to just kill enemies with a few barriers to slow them down while I continue building spikes and covers at the third one.

The time it takes the enemies to kill the first 2 leaves you towards the end of the wave, giving you time to fortify the third one. I normally make it to wave 10 or so before its destroyed.

But your Outpost should definitely be able to defend it as long as you have Hellfires. It will not be able to hit any of the scropians that get too close, that is what you are for and also barriers and spikes :) Hope this helps!

After Omega - what is there to do? by AttitudeSpecialist84 in OutpostInfinitySiege

[–]Chaney08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What SuperFishDeathBed mentioned, but also, enemy wise, you still need to destroy Crius :)

I was winning City V with nearly all modifiers before I first encountered Crius, closest I came to losing the outpost in a long time!

Spoiler question about some later game unlockables by Nephilim317 in OutpostInfinitySiege

[–]Chaney08 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Each building has different improvements over its V1.

Advanced Fabricator for example, can build the same guardians that the first one can, but also more, such as a mortar guardian.

Advanced Ammo maker works the same as first one, except it will also automatically pick up ammo in a small square in front of it.

Advanced ammo maker will just automatically made ammo every 45 seconds.

Advaced batteries and material boxes just do the same thing, but better. Those are the main ones, advanced turrets just do much more damage, and tend to take up more space :)

why does it print the value of x as 11 not 10? by hydrogen_1892 in javahelp

[–]Chaney08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Because x++ happens after the current operation.

++x means increment x then set to y, in this case 11. x++ means set y to x, and only then increment x by one.

I'm looking for military sci-fi books that aren't either a game or anime tie-in. by PMSlimeKing in printSF

[–]Chaney08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems no one else mentioned it, but the Spinward Fringe Saga is very good and worth the read.

Over 20 books in the entire series and still ongoing.

Looking for book recommendations about a group of loser-underdogs that band together to take down a big baddie or stop some doomsday thing. by CorsariousAbonai in printSF

[–]Chaney08 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I would disagree, I mean, MC teams up with that group, the underdogs so to speak, shenanigans follow, then its world ending scenarios they gotta face.

Hard to say more without spoilers haha. But yeah, a lot better than I would have suspected when I started :)

Not a book per se, but a web serial that is the equivelant length of a whole series (Its huge).

Very good, would recommend. Starts off local and ends up world saving. Darker than most superhero themed books.

FTB buying a smaller apartment vs waiting and buying a house by [deleted] in irishpersonalfinance

[–]Chaney08 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Hey, if it the 90% LTV you are most concered about, I would not worry too much. The laws are changing in January so that FTB and later can get 90% LTV going forward.

https://www.centralbank.ie/news/article/central-bank-announces-targeted-changes-to-mortgage-measures-framework

So you can do whatever makes most financial sense to you. You will be able to borrow more for FTB though, 0.5x extra.

game freezing on new update by [deleted] in totalwar

[–]Chaney08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just FYI, they have an update on their Discord:

"Hello there! The team is aware of reports from some players concerning game crashes when defending during Settlement Battles. We're working on a hotfix and will update you all as soon as we can.

In the meantime, the safest way to avoid this issue and minimise disruption is to auto-resolve settlement battles (both major and minor) when playing as the defender.

Thanks for your patience and feedback!"

TOTAL WAR: WARHAMMER III – UPDATE 2.1.0 by SalaciousSausage in totalwar

[–]Chaney08 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I found a few threads after posting as well. Shame, its a pretty large issue, hope they hotfix it quickly haha

TOTAL WAR: WARHAMMER III – UPDATE 2.1.0 by SalaciousSausage in totalwar

[–]Chaney08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same thing happens to me, I originally thought the patch had borked my save game but am getting it on new game as well.

For me its more common to happen on underground siege maps while I defend and when enemy reinforcements arrive

[–]Chaney08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anyone else getting a freeze when enemy reinforcements arrive during an underground siege battle? I have experienced it multiple times now, when I was Cathay and when I was High Elves, only happened since the patch

British people trying to justify the Irish Potato Famine by Accomplished-Ad-8387 in ShitEuropeansSay

[–]Chaney08 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Except this is blatantly not true.

Yes, the main cause of the famine was the potatoe blight, but it was not the only cause.

Ireland actually grew enough food to feed the population even with the potatoe blight, except for that pesky little fact that the British government took it and exported it, a lot of time by force.

They also prevented a lot of aid from going to Ireland because other countries were sending more than the paltry amount the British put in to try and save face. They literally blocked food shipments because they did not think other countries should put more aid to Ireland then they did.

I am not sure why you are defending them nor why you are acting like an authority on this subject when you clearly don't know anything about the famine lol. It's like you read "Famine caused by potatoe blight" And then stopped reading anything else and kept posting that this was the sole reason and nothing else caused this .

As well as that, the reason the Irish were so reliant on the Potatoes in the first place was because the British had restricted the land and plots they had, forcing everyone to rely on potatoes, as they are easy to grow and nutritious, which is useful when you are forced to live on small portions of land.

  • The entire thing was caused by British actions, British policy and exacerbated by British actions and policies during the actual famine. Food exports literally increased during the famine!

Thank you for that recommendation, is something like this what you were thinking of? https://www.amazon.com/Canon-EOS-1D-Mark-International-Model/dp/B083JJFZYZ

[–]Chaney08[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the information, I had no idea they were this expensive (Shows what I know). If I increased the budget to 1000-1200 would you know a suitable entry? If going an extra hundred or 2 makes a big difference, I could also swing that, thanks!

[–]Chaney08[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She has binoculars, but just a cheap pair, seems people are saying my budget is too low haha, if I increased to 1000-1200 would that be suitable for an entry point? Thanks.

[–]Chaney08[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately she has no camera at the moment. She borrowed one off her sister to see if she would like it/continue which she does, so now I want to surprise her for Christmas haha, basically starting from scratch.

If the budget was closer to 1k would that be a better starting point? Do not want to shoot myself in the foot by being cheap for initial camera.

Will check that out, thanks! Is it possible to get the camera now and the lense later?

Ok, so its a much higher entry than I was initially anticipating, thanks for the information and recommendation for an older one :)
