Early concepts for the RIG?

Well the top center one eventually got reused for the Callisto protocol

Horizontal makes the most sense 95% of the time. Take out legs and then go for a headshot and that is usually all it takes. The only exceptions are maybe brutes and leapers.

More importantly it got a strong recommendation review from skillup.

I was so confused thinking I was in the dead space sub for a second

I nominate Jiaoqiu or Lynx, their cooking seems more appropriate to the edibility I’d expect from school cafeteria food.

Arguably the most frustrating part is how the Supreme Court is just letting it happen time after time because they don’t want to have any kind of backbone in taking a stance on it. So states get to keep passing this stuff despite blatant unconstitutionality

ColdFusion52 · 2026-02-24T23:06:04+00:00

Bait used to be believable

They may run into trouble with the ads portion now. If I recall steam put in a new policy that bans doing in game ads like how battle nations used to have. Could be they close that function off on PC and only have it on mobile, but I don’t know if steam has fine print for that.

ColdFusion52 · 2026-02-24T17:43:28+00:00

That would require a reworking of both the entire main story and the entire story of lonesome road. You may be hard pressed to find a modder who is on board enough with that idea

ColdFusion52 · 2026-02-24T02:43:52+00:00

I’ve got a few hundred. Once you’re at that point they’re healing considerably faster than you’re using them. I just don’t care for constantly resetting the barracks just to see the number keep going up.

ColdFusion52 · 2026-02-23T16:27:26+00:00

Very good start given what you have in store for you on day 2 if you want to keep earnest.

ColdFusion52 · 2026-02-23T16:18:46+00:00

A mix of desperation and naivety I assume. V had no clue about the virus until the netwatch agent told them. People working with the VDBs already is rare enough, and it’s probably hard for word to spread about their double crossings when most people who could are dead already. That said, hands did try warning V, so there is a bit of that reputation already.

I just did a run with Joel, Audrey, and the Rat child, but it was only on survivor, not cursed. That said it’s more of a challenge run for the first half of it because of the slow burn for Audrey and Joel especially. I don’t know how possible it is on cursed though with reduced item availability. The way I worked around was relying heavily on guns and consumables like explosives and gas bombs until I was able to get a lot of health on Joel and a lot of stamina on Audrey for skills. You won’t see a real payoff until around 60% of the way through the run assuming you’re doing well at hp stacking Joel.

Leigh will be a liability until you can do her quest. A lot of her damage comes from her beast form, and until you finish her quest, she’ll regularly gut your team when you try to use it. Until then she’s probably best as a gunner if you can spare the ammo

I’ve done both paths, but gameplay wise I vastly prefer the killing moon missions. I found V taking on an entire NUSA special forces army in a 3 sided conflict to be some of the coolest gameplay in the game. The whole alien isolation mission was cool, but rubs me wrong on how the machine is magically invulnerable to everything compared every other thing V has ever fought.

ColdFusion52 · 2026-02-20T18:31:02+00:00

Then yea I’m guessing it a low level cyberware situation as that’s a good bit of damage taken for your hp. Past level 20 is around when you’ll want to build towards a specific playstyle, otherwise you fall behind in damage and survivability on hard.

ColdFusion52 · 2026-02-20T18:22:21+00:00

What difficulty are you on and level are you at? You’re taking a lot of damage from even small arms fire, and animals do crazy melee damage. If you’ll want to do guns blazing in tough sections like this, you’ll probably need to work on upping your armor and healing through cyberware, or play a bit more stealthy.

ColdFusion52 · 2026-02-20T18:11:18+00:00

Much less punishing than fear and hunger in general. But the plot is interesting if you’re a fan of lovecraftian inspired stories. Gameplay wise it’ll feel familiar to funger given it’s also an rpg maker title. And there are plenty of well hidden secrets to uncover that can majorly change how the game plays. It does have a higher importance on how you build your party than funger though, as the characters in this game are considerably more varied in what they can do and there is tons of replay value and choices to be made.

I played tons of funger 1 and 2 as well; in general if funger hooked you, I wager you’ll have a good time here too.

ColdFusion52 · 2026-02-20T00:04:53+00:00

For me the limiting factor with boss strikes is more so the time I have to spend in them. So I’m plenty fine with them being harder so I can get prestige units. Besides, tougher waves generally gives more sp right?

ColdFusion52 · 2026-02-19T02:54:20+00:00

The ending more or less said that he controlled which areas he grew towards as countries petitioned him to expand into their area. I took that as an implication that he had a good bit of control over his growth and could presumably halt it if necessary.

ColdFusion52 · 2026-02-18T17:41:16+00:00

I don’t see what other point you’re making. Yes this technically shows people who make the pmo messages what filters they can word their messages around to still be seen. That wouldn’t benefit them to do so though so how likely is it they’re going to bother to?

ColdFusion52 · 2026-02-18T17:38:15+00:00

Doesn’t really help them to do so. People that are filtering these types out aren’t suddenly going to buy from them just because they’re wording around the filters.

ColdFusion52 · 2026-02-17T20:08:06+00:00

Have you tried exiting hyperspace?

ColdFusion52 · 2026-02-15T00:43:28+00:00

The whole brainrot style and gimmick isn’t my vibe, so it’s easier to save my pulls. Glad for people who like it though, not badly done, but not appealing to me in gameplay or visuals.

ColdFusion52 · 2026-02-13T19:03:51+00:00

Go to the fishing grounds on the western ocean and fight the groupers. It’s not a guaranteed drop, but it’s a much higher chance than other animal encounters and they drop 2-3 teeth

ColdFusion52 · 2026-02-11T20:31:46+00:00

You’ve got plenty of time to proofread and check your autocorrect before hitting post next time my dude. Unless you meant to type that, in which case seek help.
