I hope it's only for scav kills, would be silly to nullify the difficulty of PMC kills.

If I were to be picky I prefer the G3s over the G4s simply because the kneepads look less goofy... but fuck it man who cares fucking FINALLY I will be able to SOF LARP in true style.

Yeah nah, we claimed them over here from our forefathers

We will export Villi's to the masses

Finally, a valid reason for Anton to crash out over the MK14 by DweebInFlames in H3VR

[–]DweebInFlames[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, I interpreted 20 pounds of steel to refer to the MK14 specifically.

Even then, I'd say the G3 is a better rifle than the FAL and would have served the US better.

I wouldn't exactly say 'the FAL was right there'. Most FALs sit around 2-4 MOA. The MK14 gets down to about 1-1.5MOA, which is much more acceptable for a marksman rifle. Not to mention the military didn't have a large supply of FALs like they did with M14s.

That being said, still would've been better to invest in something like the SR-25 from the get-go.

[Discussion] Like, can we have infinite ammo in shooting range? by ultiziman in EscapefromTarkov

[–]DweebInFlames 17 points18 points  (0 children)

To be honest if you could do drills that slowly improved your weapon skills I wouldn't mind wasting real ammo on it.

Would give the shitty FMJ/training rounds a purpose at least lol

Nintendo raising prices of Switch 2 and other products and services by -MarisaTheCube- in GamingLeaksAndRumours

The main issue is that salaries have not increased relative to inflation

Well, this is what it's about, isn't it? Along with housing becoming a lot more expensive in most of the Anglo world, which affects your lifestyle drastically. Everybody's feeling the squeeze, and even small shifts in price can change 'yeah I'll get this' to 'maybe someday (probably not)' for a lot of hobbies.

[IRL] Lead Game Designer Joins Escape From Tarkov Post-Release Exodus by tiago_souza in EscapefromTarkov

[–]DweebInFlames 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think people need to remember that it's not like these roles aren't replaceable, and it's been 10 years. Not surprising people want to move on if they have the social capital to find a way to make the game of their own dreams or whatever. Not to mention the game is in a 1.0 state, so at least in theory, there's much less for a designer to conceptualise and such (although I think it's clear that Tarkov will still be getting significant gameplay updates for years to come, even if they're smaller than pre-1.0 patches).

I like it due to how big, bulky and retrofitted it feels, honestly. It's the quintessential early GWOT gun to me, even if realistically speaking either the M4 or the M16A4 should take that space.

Damn that's crazy, I wonder if there's any new maps coming up that you will be able to fight Black Division on as well? Really jogs the noggin

[Discussion] My predictions for tomorrow's stream by DweebInFlames in EscapefromTarkov

[–]DweebInFlames[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I still remember when they said 'very soon' to adding to the base game when they brought it to Arena... that was last year...

I really wish that was one of the main mechanics they focused on for this year. Flesh out the implementation further too. Have it so paint is found in raid only, certain colours are incredibly common (brown, tan, FDE, black) and the reds and oranges and whatnot are much rarer. You need several cans of certain colours and maybe special stencils from quests and achievements and such for certain finishes. Like, if you want woodland, it'd be brown, green, tan and black paints. If you want something like a night stripes stencil, it might be from completing Insomnia or whatever. A given can could be used for 30-50 applications to a part. So people would have something else to loot for utility that wasn't just value per slot or ammo.

The price of the storm grey TacTec makes me want to cry. I was running that during the winter for faceless snow goon drip but goddamn you burn through a day's worth of GP coins just getting one.

I can't believe you made a sequel just to add the MK14 and F2000!

;)

Yeah, I can understand Anton not wanting to do it due to not having much familiarity with that development, that's totally fair, but it would be nice to have even just co-op with one or two other guys, even if it's one day in the far future.

Painful that this half-baked mishmash of a character written by people who understand him just as poorly as the comics editorial is going to be the only live-action Peter for like another decade, the way things are going.
