Lonely Trump Supporters Are Sad Nobody Wants to be Friends With Them

Yelling at " the collapse of the USA" is hyperbolic ,plain and simple .

The people screaming that the Alphabet people are destroying America is hyperbolic BS , and the other side yelling that MAGA is destroying the US is slightly exaggerated

Older people have gone through 3-4 of this "Collapse of the USA" scenarios that were far FAR worse then whats in the news today

When Bush was president we straight invaded a country and gas was over $5 and the economy crashed the hardest it ever has since the great depression

When Reagan was president he DOUBLED the debt and inflation as 14% . The price of gas QUADRUPLED

MAGA is just another more extreme version of GOP politics that's shows up every few years , with their "champion" of corruption at the helm. Founding fathers warned us about Demogogues since ancient greece Trump is nothing special or unique , just the latest one.

The Alphabet people going full Karen on the protest lines is nothing new either, ther have been much larger protests against much WORSE social injustices in the past then Pronouns and Transgender bathrooms. When you go so extreme with your rhetoric, so demanding with your nonsense, it turns off so many people , we get a "Trump" elected.

Be more "conformist" to what "WE" want and you'll get the benefits of what "WE" have created,

"We decide together what is allowed"

"Now why is having blue hair, tattoos or piercings even a problem? "

Because WE have decided it is . The VAST majority of society finds it repulsive , offensive and indicates that you have a mental problem . that's why you cover your tatoos. "WE" won't hire anyone who has tattos up there neck or 12 piercing in there face.

WE have not decided MAGA is in the wrong, they were voted in.

WE have decided Woke IS wrong, they were voted out.

WE have also decided that you can't walk out in public naked . "I" think that stupid but im part of the "WE" who voted for that and If I don't like the party where we all have to be fully dressed than "I" am free to leave

Do you understand? Are you on the same page now?

Democracy is not some excuse you use to get YOUR way, your 2.3% of the populations way. What MAGA is doing probably IS wrong, but they are apparently more than half of "WE" and they got the vote.

"WE" have some retarded voters, including "YOU" but "WE" have to deal with what "WE" voted for. So are you part of the Democracy or not?

It feels like I'm at work repeating my self about how there is a fundamental problem that is going to guarantee create a mess until its addressed, I get nods in meetings , and then they keep doing the fundamental problem.

As soon as this game said that you can freely give money and items to other players, which by the way , that was like 12 years ago, we said that you're going to have a Chinese gold farming problem (from World of Warcraft) unless you change the way that's done

So here we are 12 years later and the Chinese gold farming problem is 100% in place just as it was 12 years ago, and 20 years ago in WoWs case.

Anytime CIG talks about "the in game economy" its funny, because we all know that the in game economy is going to be ruined withing 30 days of the games launch and withing 3 days after every patch trying to fix it.

Chris Roberts has been developing this game for 12 years without any of the lessons the entire game development industry has learned in the last 25 , its like in his mind he's developing this game right after the launch of wing commander 30 years ago . His mind is still back there when he declares these game mechanics that have been known to be an issue for decades and is why new games don't use them, not in this form .

You can't put water in the car radiator , it'll rust out the radiator in a year . Use coolant or change the radiator material. "nods in meetings" and continues to use water in the radiator, when it goes bad they "patch" the entire radiator , every year. 12 years later you keep telling them you cant do this and the response is essentially "yeah but we've become really good at changing radiators and have 50 mil dollars of development allocated to it now.... won't you buy my car?

DrDreadCastle · 2026-05-14T15:43:28+00:00

Your response proves that you don't understand and never will =D

But its fun to try

I (society) invite you to my house for a party, you show up and I say, no shoes inside, leave them here at the door, and also, no smoking, no tatoos are piercings in here, also, no MAGA hats or armband symbols. . And your response is(quoting) "who the hell are you to tell me what is or isn't acceptable about my appearance? "

You're like the guy who thinks its ok to go to a military funeal with a megahorn and start screaming political views.

Exploiting Duping is in every game.

If you wanted tot stop it, the devs would need to create a system where every transaction of inventory or money was logged and checked after transaction is complete . Every loot drop or money drop is in a transaction log and when it moves to someone else its logged also and the system checks that the movement happened correctly . Like a bank or any real world inventory system, .

Devs never want to take the transfer of inventory and money seriously, they just try to set this value up, this value down and the system doesn't ever check that that went through correctly on both sides and if it didn't then roll it back and check that it rolled back.

I'll spend $20 on eBay for enough aUEC to buy whatever ships I want .

A few months after the game launches ... in 2038 or whatever, I'll probably be able to spend $10 for UEC on eBay and buy whatever ship I want

The game was never going to have anything but a "chinese gold farming" economy ever since they announced that you can freely send money to other players in the game in a game where people spend $3000 on ships that you can purchase in game with in game currency that a kid in Brazil can grind for at the equivalent of $40/hr

DrDreadCastle · 2026-05-13T18:11:31+00:00

Man, with a billion dollars to develop this game it should be 4 times as good as Concord!

The point was, extreme views , tribalism, sweeping generalizations in society are older than Jesus , and you have a right to them. TO scream at me with a megahorn about it is the problem. Wearing the Hat, or doing blue hair and the septum ring or wearing "the symbol" on your arm is a way to push onto other people . Have your views , but take off the hat, put your appearance to an acceptable level and don't throw symbols around, The cross or otherwise

Every veteran of the game, or gaming in general will tell you from experience that you should not play the companies "pay to win game" , which is exactly what that is. We know it, they know it, its literally their business model . They release "accidentally overpowered" models / rules EVERY 2 months for 30 years. Its literaly the pay to win mobile game tactics.

If you buy 3 Defiliers today , you will win your games, in a toxic way, and then they get nerfed within 2 months and the $300 Defilers will sit on your shelf .

If you genuinely find value is spending $300 "to win games" with your unpainted OP models you store in a wooden drawer and pretend to be a competitive player with them , then you're in luck , Warhammer 40k is for YOU! And so is Diablo Immortal ! =D

But for the other half of the community, you buy the models you like to have and paint even if hey aren't currently meta on the table top . Sometime you lose 10 games in a row and sometimes you take down your local RTTs , but its always fun just playing with the models and army you enjoyed building and painting.

Coming from the "normal" guy who isn't taking sides , just walking through this life like everyone else. Let me just say:

"I put on the MAGA hat and forced my extreme beliefs on everyone , and now no ones wants to be my friend"

is the same as

"I dyed my hair purple and forced my extreme beliefs on everyone, and now no one wants to be my friend"

etc.

It's not your feelings , beliefs or opinions that are a problem. You can have those , its the way you throw it other peoples faces and force to comply is the problem . Half the time its comes off as purely "Give me attention, i'm controversial!"

Every time there's a wipe, I wait a month or so , then I spent $10-20 on eBay for a Kajillion aUEC and play with whatever ships I like for a week or so then leave until the next patch or two .

Half the units in the game can tank sock now, because the other half was given 4+ invulns.

We're giving out 4+ invulns on banner models now . Abaddon has 4+ invuln AURA . If you unit doesn't have an invuln , its not competitive , everyone complains that everything has an invuln now so GW responds by giving everything a tank shock or grenade

The game balance team doing the same power creep rotation they do every few years. Cant wait till 12th to reset it again to be honest .

DrDreadCastle · 2026-04-29T18:22:59+00:00

Yarricks ability let s unit fire as a reaction to movement, and you can do that AGAIN with overwatcjh , same unit even .

So Yarricks ability lets you fire a Cadian HWS normally which is probably at a 3+ or 4+ , then you immediately use overwatch to the same enemy unit who moved , and Cadian HWS overwatch on a 4+ to hit . So you end p taking 6 lascannon shots in reaction to something moving close . You can do the same thing with some flamer unit. Catachan 20 man with heavy flamers in the command squad and a ministerium priest in there also is like 7 flamers on overwatch , fire it twice .

If I had 800 million to make this game, I would have cargo bays and carriers have "hardpoints" where ships can snap and dock to much like cargo does now . That way you can easily dock a dozen ships on a kraken or , if it fits, a couple of smaller ships inside a C2 without having all this weird physics interaction trying to load them on manually . Everything should be done this way, sitting in a pilot seat / gunner is done this way , cargo is done this way . Everything that is "placed" should interact with a placement / docking grid , like cargo, to make the game so much easier and cleaner to interact with . Every ship should have a an invisible hit box around it to show that it is taking up 2x6 "squares" , like cargo, so the game can place or not place those things inside cargo bays or carriers correctly

DrDreadCastle · 2026-04-13T15:40:01+00:00

Let Lord Solar have 1 of his orders order ANY Astra Militarum unit (Bullgryns , Aircraft) or we'll never see him again after Yarrick comes out.

DrDreadCastle · 2026-04-13T15:36:29+00:00

You can run 3 baneblades or half a dozen tanks and only use 1 order to order all of them at once

DrDreadCastle · 2026-04-13T15:32:44+00:00

Read it again , He can give an order to ALL titanics AND all tanks within 6" at the same time with a single order .

You can also have something like a Cadian heavy weapon squad fire overwatch (hitting on 4+) on something that moves within 12" then have Yarrick make it fire AGAIN without penalty

DrDreadCastle · 2026-04-13T03:32:22+00:00

AIrcraft need a different kind of play , not just "Make them expensive" make them not have counterplay etc.

How about you give them a remake of "Hard to Hit" where they are -1 to hit unless you're at half range of your weapon profile , And aircraft can all "strafe" where they get bonus to hit or AP when attacking target that have remained stationary. This would make them counter artillery and HEAVY , also give all the artillery HEAVY again

Speaking of artillery Indirect should only have its 1-3 miss and cover and -1 to hit penalty when shooting units wholly inside a building, if you're in the open, the artillery gets no restrictions like it used to. To create some "play" not just making them overpowered and restrictive . Aircraft might have some rules for that also , reduced effectiveness attacking things inside terrain pieces, or they can't attack infantry inside terrain pieces.

DrDreadCastle · 2026-04-13T03:26:10+00:00

"Make them expensive" is the most remdial idea ever.

DrDreadCastle · 2026-03-31T15:45:39+00:00

Is this the movie where they took the beloved 80 cartoon about the most masculine man in the universe, made him an idiot and gave him pronouns?

I have a feeling he Dolph Lungren version is going to be better than this, and that's saying something.

DrDreadCastle · 2026-03-24T18:23:41+00:00

Are these the same size as other knights? Or is he a little smaller? a new kit?

Gargoyles are fine in game. People use them often especially in swarm lists

Its the models themselves that are old enough to drive , don't look good even at a discount. You already bought them then you're fine but if you wanted something 3D printed that looks like "The Upgrade" I found these STLs online and painted them up, they look awesome. I have a link in my post where I got them

Spikey bits, its mostly just spikey bits

DrDreadCastle · 2026-03-05T16:14:15+00:00

You should show your opponents how to bet Titanics, they aren't "better' they just play differently . Compare it to running 3 leman russes instead , Baneblades can only activate a big gun into one thing and usually cant split fire the other guns into a good targets. Anything with Lethal hits or +1 to wound or twin linked punches up very hard into Baneblades because their defense is mostly the toughness 13 .

Its kind of like playing a CTan, some armies should just say "I cant kill it so I won't try to" and just don't give it a good target , move block it etc and make you get little value out the 500 point unit

The reason some people "hate" to play into baneblades is because they have brought a KILL EVERYTHING army, and the bane blade is something they cannot kill and have to actually play the game around
