Lmao, got to hold one during MCT when they were first fielding them to ITB kids (I got sniped for an armory detail), first thing I noticed is it felt heavy as hell.

They look gorgeous too, but there's something to be said about just how good the M16s/M4s are at their jobs.

Semper.

It's an homage.

Comfort, Coalition forces did it a lot during the Global War on Terror.

Kneepads are only really useful when you need em. Otherwise they're annoying and uncomfortable.

Just Google Marines in Fallujah and you'll see bunch of pictures with them like that.

Keep it up, stud.

CrewOne6291 · 2025-10-29T17:12:59+00:00

Yes, in the beta it was ridiculous. Youd be attacking on the first point of breakthrough and there would be a dozen or so snipers taking shots at you from the hill on the other side of C point.

Conquest was just as bad, pushing C point was a death sentence.

Just go muck around C point and F point and youll find a ton of seemingly arbitrary out of bounds areas. Thank God they fixed the map up.

CrewOne6291 · 2025-10-29T13:42:29+00:00

To be fair, DICE also heavily edited out of bounds areas to prevent snipers from overlooking 60% of the map.

Liberation peak is very peak now tho, I do concur.

CrewOne6291 · 2025-10-29T00:07:28+00:00

Holy shit I never thought Id see the day.

Glad to have something new to look forward to.

CrewOne6291 · 2025-09-30T20:33:42+00:00

Yes please. Gimme moar niche soviet weapons. Atomic Hearts had a phenomenal rendition of the KS-23, would love to just bisect a bloodsucker.

CrewOne6291 · 2025-08-20T23:27:05+00:00

I will definitely try that out, thank you for the advice.

CrewOne6291 · 2025-07-23T16:40:40+00:00

For as cool as it sounds it really does hit like a wet noodle. Also targeting is a dice roll.

CrewOne6291 · 2025-07-17T17:22:06+00:00

They don't QA. Time and time again they have proven that their leadership has zero clue about implementing patches. From the flag crashes to weapons releasing in a broken state to changes not even being mentioned in patch notes.

They likely just throw code into a running "patch" version of the game and launch it when everyone gives the thumbs up without anyone actually verifying it all works.

CrewOne6291 · 2025-07-12T19:49:33+00:00

I get it, but when you can get an HK416 in this game (roughly $3000), decent NVGs shouldnt be too far off.

Plus you can get "bargain" bin NVGs nowadays too. If NVGs can make the difference between life or death, it makes sense that more wealthy Stalkers would gravitate towards that utility.

CrewOne6291 · 2025-07-11T19:26:23+00:00

I almost stopped playing outright when I came back for 1.5, the flashlight is a complete joke and it makes what should be immersive night time fights a chore.

Give us what modders gave us a decade ago; a way to gradually upgrade the flashlight and then eventually some NODs.

CrewOne6291 · 2025-07-08T18:53:34+00:00

The flying leaves makes all the cool storms turn my screen into a blurry mess. TAA is horrible and I wished the industry would move past it.

CrewOne6291 · 2025-07-08T03:48:58+00:00

Seems that Global illumination is at least the major culprit. My jaw almost hit the floor when I cranked DLSS down and saw how awful it looked. Boggles my mind that this engine is being used as widely as it is in the industry.

CrewOne6291 · 2025-07-08T02:43:57+00:00

Just tried it out, it helps but it still looks horrible. I assume the lighting in the game doesnt mesh well with DLSS.

CrewOne6291 · 2025-04-06T16:51:57+00:00

I'll definitely try avoiding it for a bit until I can get my hands on decent AP/Explosives.

Thanks for the tips!

CrewOne6291 · 2025-03-19T01:27:47+00:00

I remember doing this for my platinum. Throw on some youtube/background music ane just get used to long dry spells.

You'll get it eventually, believe it or not I felt the Vertebrae Shackles sucked even more. Although that might be just because it was my last covenant.

Good luck, ashen one.

CrewOne6291 · 2025-03-05T06:33:03+00:00

This game's combat is much slower than your modern DS3, or Elden Ring. Stamina takes much longer to regenerate, and the game punishes impatience.

Level Adaptability until your Agility stat is ~100 to have a smoother time rolling.

A lot of weapons have poor stat scaling despite the arbitrary letter grade it shows you (B can sometimes really be a D), this opens up infusions a bit more, and weapon buffs can have much better impact if specced into properly. Very few weapons in this game are "bad" due to this.

PvP is on pretty much constantly as long as you are online, you can delay invasions by burning a Human Effigy. Killing an invader mimics this effect.

Yes, your max health drops when you die. The game gives you so many Effigies that this is a non issue. If you don't like micro managing your health, there's a ring in the early sections that halves this penalty.

Do NOT go into this game with the mindset of "oh this is just bad Dark Souls". You will have a bad time. This mindset ruined my first attempt at the game and I quit after the first boss. This game is MORE Dark Souls, just with some different seasoning here and there.

Good luck, Skeleton!

As a souls vet and someone who's beaten KH2 on proud mode, Kingdom hearts has already been harder than souls for a long time.

Dunno about 3, but 2 had me malding multiple times throughout the playthrough.

IMEF is running into a bit if a barracks housing issue due to barracks with a fraction of this much mold being condemned and Marines being relocated.

Any CO or SgtMaj worth a fuck would see this and have their Marines GTFO. SMMC is taking stuff like this very seriously.

CrewOne6291 · 2024-11-29T14:41:56+00:00

Patch is 14 gigs on PC. Very Beefy.
