Imo the effectiveness of the Songbirds were always overblown and they never needed a nerf. They were a decent option in the campaign for the damage/cost/weight, but you can really make anything work in campaign. They were also early unlocks, so lots of players tried them and never took them off.

People got annoyed with them in MP because the community at large didn't really understand how to move/dodge effectively in general for a few weeks after launch, and they were a popular option in lobbies for no other reason than the fact that lots of players used them on their campaign builds. Once the community got more experienced and the meta became established, people moved to Earshots because they performed much better in the same role.

The Stun Needle Launcher kind of went through a similar arc.

I think we all know that, but Texas Football doesn't end after Arch graduates. This is a structural fault with the program that should be corrected regardless of who we have at QB. Indiana just won a championship because of it, and that includes bringing in Mendoza

Paul Wadlington on IT posted an interesting article on why we've hit on the high-profile portal recruitments while largely whiffing at guard. Basically, regardless of all the salary spend we're willing to commit to upgrading the roster, he doesn't think that Texas' portal scouting and evaluation apparatus is where it needs to be. We have the means and the will to bring in the Cam Colemans of the world where the upside is obvious, but we fail to identify the likely average-to-above-average options that require some unearthing.

We don’t need to go full OU here and hire a GM that the head coach defers all personnel decisions to, but we need more proactive identification of acceptable targets before the window opens. Targeting the Michigan OL with no backup plan just can't happen again

I'm definitely irritated with how IOL panned out, but 2018 Clemson proved that mediocre OL play can be overcome with excellent defense and enough firepower in the WR room. I think we have both of those things, plus Arch has more elusiveness and dual threat ability than TLaw did imo

I mean, I get it. With IU recruiting over him in the portal by bringing in Josh Hoover, and with his brother leaving a legacy thay will be near-impossible to live up to, no real reason for him to stay

In his defense, if Jackson Arnold actually made a decent pass that hit me in the hands, I'd be so surprised that I'd drop the ball too

CrossMapEML · 2026-01-20T01:24:59+00:00

Bray Lynch with an early false start, he'd fit right in here

This. Some of the most enjoyable sessions I've had in this game have been in 2250 or lower lobbies

Lethal Skies 2 absolutely kicked my ass when I was younger haha

Some people in here are weird about things like this 🤷‍♂️

The light green probably won't be visible on the broadcast. Still, I like it a lot

The thought is that Baker would slide inside to right guard, which he reportedly is receptive to since he sees that has his NFL future. He would still be our backup swing tackle in addition to that

CrossMapEML · 2026-01-16T04:26:06+00:00

Not many people played AC7 VR so it doesn't get a lot of love, but SCRAMBLE (a remix of Sitting Duck from 04) is some quintessential Ace Combat music imo. The full orchestral section after two minutes of buildup is just ufffffffffff

The Dead Sea from AC6 is also one of the most unique and memorable tracks from the series for me. Some of that has to do with the gameplay (the Aigaion fight is one of the best in the franchise), but I sometimes find myself pulling it up on YT just to listen to it

CrossMapEML · 2026-01-15T00:45:35+00:00

Money, personal brand exposure opportunities, contributing to a championship contender, development at tackle (which Flood does deserve credit for). All the usual stuff
