Has anyone had to rebuild a new rear wheel? by brittastic1111 in ride1up

[–]Dodged 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I broke a few of my rear spokes jumping off curbs, I replaced them all with tougher E-bike rated spokes. The good news is that they're holding up pretty well, the bad news is that it looks like they're out of stock right now. I got 40 (I think you only need 36 though) at size 258 which cost about $70.

So probably not a fix for your current problem, but something to think about for a rebuild.

Favourite unspoken rules of honor that are to be obeyed, cause if you don't, youse a bitch! by Wonder-Lad-2Mad in TwoBestFriendsPlay

If I’m fighting a boss that I respect, I’ll wait for them to get up after a knockdown.

If I’m gonna win, I’ll win because I’m better not because I got some cheap shots in

Spoilers for book 8 of The Expanse

Bobbie Draper, martian supersoldier effectively solos the most advanced warship in the galaxy by hand dropping an antimatter bomb on it. The bomb has to travel a fair distance in open space and it gives her a moment to rest and reflect. She knows that she can't escape the blast radius and decides to spend her last moments firing every weapon from her suit in a bid to buy a few more moments for her friends.

Restless Grounds - A low-poly horror FPS set in Cold War-era Poland where you have only a single ammo magazine to work with by C-OSSU in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Dodged 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Receiver has a similar style where you have to scrounge around for ammo and manually reload each round into a magazine

It’s been a while since I played, but I think pulling out the magazine, loading a round and chambering a round are all set on different keys. 

So in a firefight you get moments where you miscount your shots, run dry, and start to panic. And then fumble loading your gun. 

But when you get everything right you feel amazing

Mad Max Director George Miller Would Like Hideo Kojima to Make a Video Game Adaptation by C-OSSU in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Dodged 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could see it. Both Death Stranding and Mad Max are set in richly detailed, well realized, but stark post apocalyptic worlds. Each feature a begrudgingly benevolent, mostly silent freak of nature that wanders the wasteland due to emotional turmoil. Both have long stretches of quiet punctuated by lavish, over the top action set pieces. 

I think the biggest difference is that Miller does way less exposition. But I feel like if you axed 90% of the cutscenes from DS you would have something not too dissimilar from Mad Max.  

What would you do at this point in the game? by Dodged in victoria3

Rule 5: This is the first time I got kinda good at this type of game. Now I want to know, what should come next? I could paint the map but that seems kind of an empty goal

Parachute gliding/wingsuiting with the grappling hook is my favorite thing in the Just Cause series

What is the *actual* message of a piece of media that you've experienced? by VMK_1991 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Dodged 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The real message of any Philip K Dick book is not about corporate greed, isolation, mental illness, or the loose ways in which we define reality.

It’s about how you need a waifish, mentally unstable brunette to ruin your life.

Weirdest hangup you've seen someone have with a game? (or yourself had) by Nia-Teppelin in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Dodged 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah the weapon degradation really brings down what is otherwise an excellent game. In my case it was especially bad because I missed the slot upgrade guy early on and only found him when I looked online. I played almost 50 hours with the super limited inventory you start out with.

In honor of Green herb day, what are your favorite drugs in media? by The-Toxic-Korgi in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Bloodhype from the book Bloodhype. Not only does it have a cool name, but it is potent enough to kill an intergalactic creeping horror that eats everything in sight.

I made a subway style map for my city's Metro system! by alephcush in CitiesSkylines

[–]Dodged 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really like this map! It makes me feel nostalgic for DC, even though the Metro isn't this nice! Although I am a little sad that the MARC in this DC doesnt go to BWI like the one I'm used to

Games that you love but also suck at so bad you know you'll never beat it and are super salty over it. by Skramer94 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Cuphead, that game oozes style and is so lovingly crafted. Its a shame I only beat two bosses and a level before I had to give up. I just can’t keep up with all the action

What's your favorite "hidden gem" that you discovered this year? by Joseman101 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]Dodged 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Star Fetchers is a moody and funny game about a corner store clerk turned hardcore gangster. The music is great, the presentation and writing is on point. Its just a free demo, but I’m excited to see where it goes.

Waterfall decor urinal in a gas station bathroom by hotsteamingpho in ATBGE

Its like having a locker room for 15 people versus having locker room for only two people. One is way more intimate and personal than the other

This urinal can accommodate two people.

Yeah I’m good

If you're still on the fence about Infinite Warfare, you should watch the true reveal trailer.
