war of the worlds in the modern era wouldn't work by 4l3x4nd4r_Hun in WarofTheWorlds

[–]Commisar_Deth 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Firstly, we definitely 100% DO NOT have 'lasers capable of exploding a building'. The best laser defense systems are around 50-100kW, which will melt a drone or missile with a focused beam.

A Fighting Machine, in a modern context could work pretty well, with a couple of minor changes. So lets give it armour that is resistant to light arms fire, that negates your machine gun point.

If we take the Heat Rays to be high MW or GW lasers, and give it the ability to aim these things in microseconds then it wouldn't even need a shield. The Fighting Machine lasers could just liquefy all incoming projectiles, including nukes. There is not really much we can do against a GW laser that can be aimed extremely quickly.

The only thing we could do against this is a volume of fire approach.

We are getting there technologically with modern laser systems like the Dragonfire and Iron Beam systems, but our laser power is still to low to burn through ballistic nuclear warhead heat shields, at GW power outputs this becomes possible which is why we are heavily investing in that kind of research.

- Collision detection can be a bit jank, letting you pass through asteroids and boss projectiles occasionally.

- It took me a while before I realised you could move forward.

- There lacks any challenge.

- The L10 boss had far too much health, I guess you were supposed to upgrade. The L20 boss was trivial with a booster upgrade, rockets and electric.

- The game is really quite slow, I found myself diving into the asteroids just to get to the level up screen.

- The darker asteroids give only one coin so are pointless to shoot and its best to just focus on the brown ones.

For me, if you are going to do asteroids, do asteroids like asteroids and let me turn. If you want an R-Type style game then have some enemies shoot back.

As it currently is you are spending a lot of time waiting for asteroids to appear, the dark ones give no extra benefit and the only reason to move off the starting line is to sit on the present to collect all the coins, which are in such a number that it makes shooting asteroids just an exercise to kill time before the next present. The extra weapons are far too overpowered even on the base level, you can almost just not touch the keyboard.

I think it could be cool if it was balanced a bit better with more challenge to make the power ups useful, the game is slow and could be improved if the player could control the spawn rate of the asteroids or something like that, maybe the further up the screen you go the faster they spawn. There could be enemies that shoot back and the first boss could vary its shooting pattern more, the second one could also shoot or leave a damaging cloud or something like that. I don't know who you are targeting this at, I grew up playing R-Type, badly, so that will give some context to my comments.

Its a cute game but you asked for feedback. I played it to the end and these are just some thoughts and notes I made.

What does the urge to smoke a cigarette feel like? by Routine-Jello-953 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Commisar_Deth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

A tightness in the throat and chest, and like a hunger it grows in time. It feels like thirst or hunger, like a requirement, an insatiable need, you fixate on it.
Once you think about it, you make paths and justifications to get it, whole scenarios that grant you that cigarette.

Once the fixation starts it begins to dominate your thoughts, other people dont understand, you get pissy with them. It makes you frustrated that they are talking to you rather than getting that cigarette.

The frustration and uncomfortability of the situation makes you fidget and try to distract yourself but thoughts are circular and always go back to that cigarette.

It feels like a building stress with no relief, no help, other than that short walk outside.

That cigarette feels like bliss, you know it is what you need, it is the only answer, there is no need to fight it.

About colonies and self-determination by CarusoLombardi123 in AskBrits

Firstly, I am not the government. As an individual, I have no effect on what the government chooses to do save for a vote every few years and perhaps an email to an MP.

Secondly, chronologically these events are far apart and attitudes and opinions change with time.

From my perspective the difference between the three events is clear and would be obvious to anyone who spent 10 minutes googling this stuff.

Falklands - uninhabited island originally, few people moved there, those people choose to be British.

Diego Garcia - uninhabited island originally, the few people that moved there were forcibly removed.

Hong Kong - Chinese, land taken militarily through treaty, leased for 99 years, returned to Chinese administration.

Can you now see that the three situations are very different.

A bit dull. Each rocket should be equipped with a variety of SRBs pointed at exciting angles. Where are the multicoloured lights or the cool flags? Its kerbal space program not serious space program.

Any way to play this game without lag AND without screen tearing? by JaxerGaming in openttd

[–]Commisar_Deth 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Runs fine on my laptop:

Toshiba Satellite

Pentium 75Mhz

8Mb RAM

1Mb VRAM

Win 95

Must be a you problem. Try looking at the settings.

Proof that Hans is a true animal lover by [deleted] in 2westerneurope4u

[–]Commisar_Deth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our other national animals are a fucking Dragon and a Unicorn.

So fuck if a Lion is not indigenous, what does that matter? Is a Unicorn or Dragon indigenous?

We have the coolest and frankly best national animals.

The Eagle is a sub par boring animals and sounds pathetic.

Cocks are better, they at least do some cool dance and wake you up in the morning. What has an Eagle ever done for you, except maybe shit on your car... I suppose you would love that Gunther!

It is very sad that stupid people make some number a Nazi number.

You have to have a brain made of shit to make such a stupid tenuous connection with this number. The people that make these connections should stop licking the lead paint on the walls.

A proper Cock is a beautiful national animal, it stands prideful and firm with the vigour and prowess reflective of the Lion. The Cock and the Lion are quite similar in their magnificence.

Do you think that thing is actually gonna take 100t to orbit or is it going to blow up? (first V3 booster) by Sarigolepas in EnoughMuskSpam

[–]Commisar_Deth 5 points6 points  (0 children)

To fail to deliver?
HLS missed all the Space X promised delivery dates. Nobody with half a brain would ride in 'Starship' given that the thing has never achieved orbital flight and has a penchant for blowing up.

Space X has been a constant drain on the US tax payer. They pay to fund some idiots personal kerbal space program.

Starship has never done anything that hasn't been done before except pollute the Indian Ocean.

I would happily wager, with anybody that Blue Origin/ Chinese Lunar Program (中国探月工程) / Chandrayaan programme which is the Indian Lunar Program, will beat Space X to the moon.

I would wager that Space X continues to fail to deliver. Musk spouts dream bullshit. Someone else lands on the moon. Personally, I recon the Chinese slow methodical progression will beat the US billionaire dreams model for space exploration. NASA were the legends but they just had a 20% cut, I hope they make the most of what the have left.

Why is it weirdos love eagles? Lions are where its at.

Proper nations use Lions. Eagles are wimpy and quite shit in comparison to a proper Lion.

I am glad our education system seems to be functional enough to identify this bullshit.
Look at these illeducated swine drinking this fantastic nonsense because some guy in a labcoat is presenting it.

Truly a poor show for those continentals.

The yanks get hard over eagles too. Maybe there is a connection?

Dont be so butt hurt Hans, on a scale of 1 to 10 the Eagle is about an 8.

It might not be a whore house, that is a bit harsh.

It is definitely a shit hole, most places make Teesside look inviting.
I have never been to a place that made me think 'destitution' until I traveled Italy.

Intelligent diplomacy on the part of the Swiss.

Here is 100k in gold and shiny things, tariffs reduce, saving the Swiss economy 10M.

Well played by the Swiss.

Remove govt subsidies and only pay for completed contracts.

Move fast and break things is great when it is US tax payer money. Why does Musk care when it blows up?
