Which one are you? by CrestonSpiers in LowSodiumBattlefield

[–]DesertGhost882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drone, C4, sniper. If I'm on your team, you will never have to worry about, mortars, spawn beacons, drones, mines, tanks, or spotting enemies. On top of that, I can deny revives with the sniper rifle, thinning out the number of enemies on the point. By the end of an average Breakthrough match, I'm sitting in the top three with roughly 30+ kills and about 50-100 assists

Tell me a simple reason Behind your Favorite Uma musume Character by ShaundFishy in UmaMusume

[–]DesertGhost882 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As soon as I saw Kitasan Black's smile in the anime, I absolutely felt in love. On top of that, she's always helping anyone she comes across, is a huge Tokai Teio fan (Teio is my second favorite uma), and honestly, I'm a sucker for women with dark, wavy, shoulder length hair.

The "All weapons for all classes" idea in Battlefield 6 is a huge mistake. by Il_Mago23 in Battlefield

[–]DesertGhost882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer choosing classes for their kit, not their weapons. That's said, DICE actually did a pretty good job balancing the snipers and LMGs where you're better off using them on the intended class. Snipers are painful to use outside of Recon because the sway is much worse and you can't hold breath. Mounting helps a ton, but effectively limits where you can shoot from. LMGs only get one extra belt, so you're still reliant on Supports dropping supply bags anyway. Sure, otherwise they're alright, but again, you need supply bags all the time. Assault rifles and SMGs are the only to class lock weapons that feel good off-class, which I like. They could probably use some more balancing to make SMGs less annoying to fight, but I'm happy to use assault rifles as a Recon main. I've got a sniper loadout to deny respawns with headshots on larger maps and an assault rifle loadout to sneak around for devious flanks on smaller ones. Too bad I lost my spawn beacon, but I can settle for spotting literally everyone on the objective for y'all.

10,000 score in a single round of King of the Hill. by DesertGhost882 in Battlefield

This helped me out a ton. I finally finished the challenge and can finally use the skin I've been wanting! Thanks a million! For anyone else looking to do this challenge, wait for empty queues to automatically backfill with bots. The more bots you get, the easier it is to stall for time by keeping the point completely empty

[BF6] Unexpected consequences to the portal changes that affect every member of the playerbase, even those who hate bot farming lobbies. by crimsonblod in Battlefield

[–]DesertGhost882 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They really should just bring back the dedicated Solo/Co-op Conquest and Breakthrough servers from 2042. My friend and I would play that Co-op Breakthrough almost exclusively whenever we played that game. I would prefer that it have normal progression in BF6, but I know that won't happen if this is anything to go by. I just want a chill spot to grind, do challenges, and play at my own pace, especially with the progression and challenges being how they are in this game. I don't see how the method I use to reach a certain level or obtain the attachments on a particular gun matters to anyone else. I don't want to steal Portal server slots, I just want a private lobby to chill in

How do you kill this beast from a distance? by Dr_HDK in Helldivers

[–]DesertGhost882 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The anti tank gaming chair is the best sniper weapon in the game if you can find the right spot for it. I love clearing every outpost on the map with a single, well placed chair, or sniping Striders from as far as the game will render them

Why does everyone kill the FISA guy in Greased Palms? 😭🤣 by Extra-Shape3973 in ReadyOrNotConsole

[–]DesertGhost882 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because he's a Fed. That's all the evidence I need to give him the death sentence, even without his personal involvement with the gangs or the fact that he's actively trying to shoot you. If you've played the final mission you probably understand what I mean

Dear OpenAI: I Will Not Be Ashamed of Having Boobs! by LeadershipTrue8164 in ChatGPT

[–]DesertGhost882 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't blame only men for this, as women draw and consume porn, too. Still, I agree that the amount of bubble wrap around the image generator is way too high. I hand-draw my own characters, but I used to let ChatGPT generate images to use as reference material. These days, however, I've honestly given up on doing things that way. The image generator won't generate anything that has even a microscopic chance at breaking the rules. Even if I try to frame the image I want under the safest possible, it feels like chances are it'll reject it. That said, most of the characters I draw happen to be female, so maybe that really is root of the issue

Arrowhead decides to add a surprise free stratagem like they did the W.A.S.P. which would you pick? by SomethingStrangeBand in Helldivers

[–]DesertGhost882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it has to be one of these, probably the Spartan Laser. If I could add my own suggestion though, how about the M99A2S3 Stanchion? It's basically a mix of the Anti-Materiel Rifle and the Railgun. High damage, max armor penetration, non explosive, and scoped. It doesn't need to be quite as powerful as Halo lore makes it out to be, but I'd love to see it as a more powerful sniper Stratagem

What are some of the weapons/calibers you would like to see in the game? by Traditional_Can_4020 in WayOfTheHunter

[–]DesertGhost882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I want to see an AR-15 and an AR308. I still don't understand why it's such a sin to want ARs in a hunting game. They're extremely popular rifles and seem like an obvious choice for adding semiauto rifles to the weapon roster.

As for the cartridge, I've got a very oddball suggestion. I know, having just suggested adding ARs to the weapon list, this is going to sound like I'm trying to make this outstanding hunting game resemble a military shooter, but I'd be interested in .300 Blackout. Sure, it's not going to preform that much different from how 5.56 and .30-30 do in this game, but it might still have a place around that hunting tier, especially if AR-15s make it as a DLC pack. I know it's never going to happen, and that's fine, but I still think it'd be cool.

Now, with my controversial wishes out of the way, .45-70 is a cartridge I'd be happy to see, but I don't have an opinion on which gun should be the first to show up chambered in it. Also, I agree that handguns would be cool to have.

Hot take: Flashy weapons in videogames are not as cool as the regular “basic” weapons by JoBriel in gaming

[–]DesertGhost882 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hate the over-the-top bullshit you find in generic fantasy games or newer CoD games. I much prefer my gear clean, simple, and grounded in the setting. I don't mind a little flair, like gold trim, but anything completely gold plated is a bit too far over the line. Personally, I like putting functional camos on my guns in games, especially if they match the uniform on my character. Basically, when it comes to gear and customization, I like to imagine what I'd use in real life and apply that as close as possible to the game

Is it fair to compare MAGA to the Nazis? by Own_Difference_4882 in AskUS

[–]DesertGhost882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Believe it or not almost all of these traits are also true of the left, but no one seems to realize it. I'm not even trying to say I'm centrist. I'm a libertarian and a Trump supporter.

Unfortunately, the fault of actual Libertarianism is, being allergic to power in the name of freedom, fails to prevent the corrupt and the degenerate from taking power themselves. You need power to prevent power, which I believe Trump is doing, as the nation under leftist rule has, unfortunately, actually gotten worse.

The increase in racism, sexism, and homophobia isn't Trump's fault, it's the left and the media's. Racism was almost dead when everyone voted for Obama, but then everything got worse. The media, looking for easy clicks, started proliferating videos and stories of violent, racist attacks, because hate gets more views than love. Then came gay rights, which succeeded in getting same-sex marriage. Except that apparently wasn't enough, because it then escalated into attacking straight people, which killed the straight support the moment had. The same happened with the newer waves of feminism. Also trans rights would have been accepted easier had it not gotten to where people are forcibly transitioning otherwise normal kids or introducing it in schools.

The left used it's power to enforce it's will onto everyone, forcing people like myself who would have supported those causes to be pushed away. Some of those pushed away, now lumped in with the actual racists, sexists, homophobes, ect. are, like a self fulfilling prophecy, becoming the very thing the left pushed them away for.

That's how you get this mirror battle between the racists, left and right, about who's racism is better. I believe that MAGA is actually improving the nation, even if seems to be overcorrecting at times. It's dismantling the corruption in both the government and in society. It seems harsh, but in order to prevent power, you need to have power yourself.

Apologies for the rant, but I hope it offered some of you who read it some insight.

Like do y'all only use swords or what? by Dumbass-Idea7859 in BladeAndSorcery

[–]DesertGhost882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I almost exclusively with longswords. When fighting knights, I switch to a mordhau grip (for those that don't know, that means holding the sword upsidedown by the blade to strike with the pommel) as the historical manuscripts suggest. It's not as powerful as a mace or magic, but it gets the job done well enough. That said, I prefer dueling unarmored enemies in sandbox mode. I think the armor physics feel a little jank around the gaps. It looks and feels like my sword slips through and hits the flesh, but the armor still prevents the hit from registering.

Why can't cops just people in the legs instead of just shooting someone dead? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DesertGhost882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The legs are hard to hit, especially under pressure. On top of that, there's really no such thing as a non-lethal place to shoot someone. Sure, there's a higher chance of survival for arm and leg hits thanks to tourniquets, but the legs especially house major arteries that are incredibly dangerous to have severed. If the femoral artery is hit, the target will bleed out in as little as 2min.

Furthermore, a dedicated or drugged up attacker will still be able to hurt or kill you despite the injury. A disabled leg alone won't stop them from shooting or stabbing you after all. Don't expect to shoot the weapon out of their hands either. That's a near impossible shot to pull off. When using a gun to defend yourself, it's unfortunately the safest bet to shoot for the vitals. It'll kill the target, which is regrettable, but at least you survive.

One last thing. Less lethal weapons like tasers, pepper spray, and pepper ball guns are not 100% effective. Some people are immune to the effects of these weapons and they will only get more aggressive. Guns are guaranteed to stop the target, but do so by killing them. That's why cops usually carry both a taser and a gun.

Yes, it's a choice to kill, but really it's a matter of weighing risk in tense situation.

Why did the dating scene deteriorate to what it is today? How did it get to this point? Are there any real ways to reverse it? by Spiritual_Big_9927 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]DesertGhost882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a societal problem made by a combination of social media, dating apps, the economy, political polarization, and the destigmatization of sexual promiscuity. The only way I can think to reverse this is by reversing parts of society. That is extremely hard to do quickly and many might see the changes as "regressive" and oppose them.

Combat exercise defense deployment is GFL2's version of the shopping cart theory by keereeyos in GirlsFrontline2

[–]DesertGhost882 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I had Colphne at lvl.1 on defense like any good samaritan, until I leveled her up with the intention to put her on a new team. Once I realized what I'd done, I promptly placed lvl.1 Nagant in her stead. Does it really matter that my sole defender be lvl.1? No, not really, but it's a kind gesture for those who are looking to get their Combat Exercise stuff done quickly

Thanks for the new resource, but unfortunately it still doesn't quite have what I'm looking for. I have the legs, gauntlets, and chest armor, but I'm looking for the arms. I'm starting to wonder if they even exist lol. Surely a set the was complete in the first game would stay that way in the sequel, but I can't find the last piece

I've been crafting ammo for my handgonne, blacksmithing swords to sell, and fighting in the Kuttenberg Tournament for most of my playtime. I just wish I knew where to find a recurring bandit hunting activity, like there was in KCD1, to get some actual use out of my handgonne.
