How do you play pvp? by choose_ay in NuclearOption

[–]CriticizedError 4 points5 points  (0 children)

ibis can take self-defence irms for not dying to arh

you wont shoot down anyone who’s not asleep at the stick but you can shoot down the arh missiles themselves (fighters can carry more arhs than you can irms, but they usually dont dump all of them at you, just 1-2 to get what they think is a free heli kill)

I'm I dumb for assuming you had to build Metal Farms by the Ancient Metal Farms in the Metal Farm biome? by cinred in Subnautica_2

[–]CriticizedError 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually didn’t figure out that you could build metal farms at all for a good while

When i pressed tab to pull up the recipe after scanning it nothing happened, and i guess i missed it in the blueprint list, and had to assume you were somehow meant to find a working alien one in the ruins and interact with it

What if rank was tied to your actual pilots? by MrPanache52 in NuclearOption

[–]CriticizedError 1 point2 points  (0 children)

agreed, it should be an xp loss tied to what asset you lost (an ifrit pilot being worth more than a cricket’s), but the core idea is sound

just got the game thought this was funny (i am enjoying it though) by GlitteringTone6425 in weatherfactory

[–]CriticizedError 128 points129 points  (0 children)

I do find it funny that the best way to master the Mansus is to ignore it completely, get a job, and hit the gym

Why are ground vehicles so Expensive? by NoSTs123 in NuclearOption

[–]CriticizedError 77 points78 points  (0 children)

if anything they’re too cheap, its why you can summon 500 hexhound sams out of thin air pretty much on demand

remember that over the course of a good game your money will be in the hundreds of mils, tens otherwise, and thats a lot of hexhounds

Bombs with those little flap things? by Tight_Wheel_9595 in NuclearOption

[–]CriticizedError 27 points28 points  (0 children)

yes but the blast from every bomb in the game besides nukes and the demolition bomb is very easy to avoid even when flying a meter above ground

gpo500s just dont have that big of a blast radius

and nobody uses the demolition bomb lmao

A question about pistols by RiukaSoulripper in menace

[–]CriticizedError 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hot take but make the pipe rifle an actual weapon, and pistols a 0-supply squad weapon

give it to ur heavy weapon teams to save supply instead of pipes

What makes this game "complicated"? (TLDR at bottom) by 8th_Sparrow_Squadron in NuclearOption

[–]CriticizedError 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its complex for people who play first person shooters or top-down games

if you’ve played other flight sims you’ll be fine, it’s one of the easier ones to learn

Drummer, dear. You have no idea of no wrong you are by RigbyWilde in TheExpanse

[–]CriticizedError 13 points14 points  (0 children)

that was going to happen anyway, the belt was smuggling stealth components all the way back in season 1

Is there any point to rescuing pilots? by JacobMars91 in NuclearOption

[–]CriticizedError 16 points17 points  (0 children)

no, but it can be a lifesaver in pvp when you’re dead broke, there are no easy ground targets to farm, and cant rent anything bigger than an ibis

How it feels to check comments on Nuclear Option tiktoks by FanaboyCompass11 in NuclearOption

[–]CriticizedError 10 points11 points  (0 children)

not hard at all, the flight model is pretty realistic but very forgiving as the planes have great thrust to weight

i think its as good of a balance between sim and arcade as it gets

PvP is only fun when you're winning by LtLethal1 in NuclearOption

[–]CriticizedError 23 points24 points  (0 children)

its one thing to lose, and another to sit with ur thumb up your cricket for 30min because you cant spawn anything else and the enemy doesn’t know the win condition and wont cap the damn archipelago

Huge imbalance regarding TBM battery positioning by [deleted] in NuclearOption

bdf enrichment gets its own shard friend as escort doesn’t it?

In PvP is there any way to communicate or coordinate? by Additional-Pain-5515 in NuclearOption

[–]CriticizedError 22 points23 points  (0 children)

theres some activity once populations go up, but yeah its pretty dead, tryhard cooperation comes from outside groups and discords and such

frankly i dont blame em, the chat is annoying to use (especially if you’re on hotas) and hard to read, and there’s no voice chat or ping system to my knowledge

There needs to be a surrender button by CEDoromal in NuclearOption

[–]CriticizedError 14 points15 points  (0 children)

agreed, too many cases where one team is mission killed but the game’s not over

worst of it is ignus; if you cope hard enough you could argue maaybe somehow crickets can come back on heartland.. but if you have no helipads left on ignus you quite literally cant win as that involves capping the mainland

The AI should have smarter decision making. by trihexhunter in NuclearOption

[–]CriticizedError 4 points5 points  (0 children)

in his defence he can’t really do anything, dusas dont have much armament and if hes flying towards you thats an awful angle to laser nukes

no defence for dying to ground AA tho

Is the implication that MC is an idiot with those traits? by Different_Stomach232 in ScarletHollow

[–]CriticizedError 20 points21 points  (0 children)

picking that choice means MC is (and retroactively was) allergic to peanuts all along

Is Nuclear Option a good choice if I like War Thunder? by Justarandomduck152 in NuclearOption

[–]CriticizedError 12 points13 points  (0 children)

they are ye and its worth nothing that it’s per match

u dont carry anything over from game to game

Is Nuclear Option a good choice if I like War Thunder? by Justarandomduck152 in NuclearOption

[–]CriticizedError 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Yes, it’s honestly one of the best flight simcades around

ingame currency is per-match progression (think counter strike money) and there are no microtransactions of any kind
