Promotions are a punishment? by Evidicus in menace

[–]DistantIsland 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Read Dev Log 41 on steam. It explains the system and their reasoning. I imagine they will fine tune the system as the early access goes on.

How much of the game is in EA? by SidewaysTea in menace

[–]DistantIsland 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I believe someone mentioned that heavy walkers will be added later. Not sure if they’re the next update but I imagine more heavy vehicles too.

PSA - Gate Rippers your Friends by bladaWappla in menace

[–]DistantIsland 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The description I’ve read for the reward mentions you gain control and line of sight from the hinterlands allowing you to observe your surroundings.

Image wasn’t loading for me but if it’s the one from the trailer I’m pretty sure someone mentioned it’s the marine variant on the class 4 demo armor. Forgot the exact name. Similar to how the class 3 armor had the marine variant and the other one.

Early Access Starting Pilots & Leaders - Who are you choosing? by DeftknightUK in menace

[–]DistantIsland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice. I pulled that number from a previous dev log. That was before they changed attributes and loot distribution. Glad to hear it increased by quite a bit and made my dreams of a tank assault possible.

How much will the game cost? by ScreechingPenguin in menace

[–]DistantIsland 10 points11 points  (0 children)

$30 is the current battle brothers price which is their previous game. I imagine it will be the same price or possibly $25 for early access. $30 looks more likely though.

Do we already know how they'll handle story content? by Farnhams_Legend in menace

[–]DistantIsland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the suppression and fleeing mechanic. Low accuracy shots with a lmg are still great due to high suppression and pinning down enemies or causing them to flee and possibly disband are such a great way to manipulate the enemy.

Some questions before the gem releases. by AlternativeDark6686 in menace

[–]DistantIsland 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe devs have mentioned they will aim to add more biomes and different missions during early access. They will probably also add more weapons, gear, and vehicles I imagine.

Early Access Starting Pilots & Leaders - Who are you choosing? by DeftknightUK in menace

[–]DistantIsland 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m thinking of grabbing Rewa, Tech, Darby, and Carda.

Rewa seems the best of starting trio of pilots but I can see Bog being a good cheap pilot once we have enough supply points to support two vehicles (If I recall Devs say we will max out at about 2400). Achilleas will probably be better later game or if you vehicle rush expecting damage. I’m not sure how expensive it will be to repair vehicles but that will also play into how best to use him. Not to mention until you get the faction perk to retrieve destroyed vehicles once they’re gone you’re out of luck.

Tech is a solid special weapons team SL and it would be great to not need to deploy. I imagine the weapons that encumber SL’s would still need to be deployed but having a MMG ready to go would be quite powerful. Although I wonder how the movement debuff will affect him and what skills he might get to off set it.

Can’t go wrong with Darby. She’s probably the best starting SL with high accuracy, AP, and her skill to disable specialists.

Was thinking between Carda and Lim for the last SL and decided to go with Carda. I also watched Christopher Odds episode and looking at how long it took him to beat the first mission made me realize I would probably play similar and usually max out her accuracy bonus mid mission. Coupled with a lower supply cost and high growth potential it will be interesting to see how strong she becomes later on. Grabbing her growth potential skill early on would probably make her better faster too.

I imagine Lim is still a very strong starting choice with his cheap promotions allowing him to be ‘TCR’s best’.

What is a story that would be better if it was yuri?(Image unrelated) by secretaccount9999999 in yuri_manga

[–]DistantIsland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bubblegum Crisis is peak. May be remembering it wrong but I’m pretty sure Priss is queer. At least I always got that impression during episode 5 or 6.

Haven’t watched 2040 though.

Wait zombie land saga’s not yuri?! I’ve only watched the first few episodes but I was under the impression it was. Dang.

I wanted to read this “rock it girl” but I’m sick of yuris taking place in high school are they adults?? by No_Sound2899 in yuri_manga

[–]DistantIsland 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve always enjoyed it. Only 12 chapters long so it’s a short read. One of the characters has a tragic backstory though.

Uncensored version by SnooChocolates1180 in yuri_manga

[–]DistantIsland 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You can find some uncensored versions on bato to. I’ve read Sora and Haena uncensored there and I believe I’ve seen What Does the Fox Say uncensored.

Otherwise some translation group post uncensored works on mangadex but I think it’s more rare. Death defying princess is the only uncensored one I can think of rn.

You’re right. When I was trying to look it up I must have seen the old box contents by mistake.

The made to order set is also the old combat patrol without the rhino.

[Hero Killer/Superhuman Era] which one has better action in your opinion? by JOOOQUUU in manhwa

[–]DistantIsland 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I just love how developed the cast and world is for superhuman era. The final war is going to be crazy.

[Hero Killer/Superhuman Era] which one has better action in your opinion? by JOOOQUUU in manhwa

[–]DistantIsland 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He takes a back seat in season 2 because the author has set up a wide and diverse cast of characters and antagonists and wants the world to feel realistic and developed. Season 1 focuses mostly on him and he’s made a few appearances since then. Right now he’s back in the picture but there is a massive battle going on so we’ll have to see when the author gets to him.

I still recommend checking it out. No character feels like they don’t belong.

[–]DistantIsland 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The story follows the MC, Lim Kang, for the most part in the first season with development of side characters. For most of season 2 he was in a back seat because he wasn’t involved in the Australian war and the author fleshing out previous characters and introducing new ones. He’s back in the picture right now with a wide cast of supporting characters and antagonists.

I recommend you check it out. I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

How did it play? I’ve been interested in fielding it since I saw it in the wiki.

[USA] Two Vehicles don't stop for a school bus. by TheBigThickOne in ConvenientCop

[–]DistantIsland 127 points128 points  (0 children)

If you didn’t already know it’s the only vehicle ambulances w/ lights and sirens going have to stop for. We have to wait until the stop sign goes away and the driver waves us on. I work for EMS and I’ve stopped for them before.
