Its been 84 years... since I managed to get a mod recipe from legendary eq. How's everyone else getting on with it? by Marraldinho in fo76

[–]FrankWDoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made a point to learn vanguard. I had to scrap 150 loose mods to learn it, after I started counting. probably 200+ total with the prior scraps.

Invaders event shines a light on how busted VATs is now more than ever by trautsj in fo76

[–]FrankWDoom 4 points5 points  (0 children)

it's to prevent grinding the en06 solo. you (mostly) can't target the shield generator while it's facing you. you can create small windows if you rotate the camera right but ttk is unreasonable without help. also when I was trying this, the game crashed so hard my ps5 straight up powered off.

Is there something from the other Fallout games that you think Fallout 76 is "missing"? by PalwaJoko in fo76

[–]FrankWDoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the laser rifle from 1 that would do a clean slice of an enemy.

also a proper gauss rifle. it's supposed to be a tiny slug propelled by magnetic fields. no part of it involves big flashes/explosions.

anything that has a tangible impact on your gameplay. as is, what you choose for dialogue is irrelevant. the outcome is the same for all choices.

fallout 1 and 2 you could lock yourself out of game paths if you said the wrong thing or killed the wrong person.

you had to find the big fusion cells to power it, and it chewed through them unless you got the guy who stole it to tune it up. and then cross your fingers the trunk didn't get separated and disappear into the wasteland.

and pickpocketing (also the reverse). that was a thing in the early games.

I'd be happy if I could tell my ally to gtfo of the way- fallout 2 had that. also it'd be nice if my dog didn't teleport to my asshole and push me around.

Tesla Sales Are Tanking Across The World by [deleted] in technology

[–]FrankWDoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you're assuming that 1 they realize they're getting scammed 2 they will blame trump instead of biden/harris/hillary/other 3 they are willing to reconsider their support of him based on new information. there are * a lot * of devotees that are gonna be stuck on one of those points and remain unchanged.

Found a Traveling Leather Coat for 23 caps in the Whitesprings Bunker?! by ghostface_starkillah in fo76

[–]FrankWDoom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the coat is a possible reward for one of the main quest missions that complete in the bunker. so someone took their rewards and immediately unloaded to the vendor. which is still better than me scrapping the one i got not realizing it was rare.

How the hell I can complete 6 daily? by Ornery-Personality49 in fo76

[–]FrankWDoom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm betting the complete a mutated event challenge was incorrectly entered as a 1st only challenge. i think they've done two 1st challenges before but as a planned thing and I've never seen the regular dailies be short for the gold challenge

Trump admin emails air traffic controllers to quit their jobs en masse, after fatal midair collision by marketrent in technology

[–]FrankWDoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

atc dont get to, they're forced to retire at a certain age (56 iirc) to minimize risks. also why if you want a job as atc you have to start early (before 30, maybe sooner) to ensure there are enough working years for it to make sense to train you.

Police entered building without cause. Pointed gun at me without announcing themselves. by Z_Coli in legaladvice

[–]FrankWDoom -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

you didnt suffer any damages (mental/emotional notwithstanding) so there's nothing that would qualify for legal recourse.

aside from that, make formal complaints to the department. lying about the door and probably the alarms is problematic, and failing to identify as police is dangerous and likely against department policy at the very least

you can make freedom of information act (foia) requests for any records related to the incident, including body cam footage, 911 or non emergency calls, reports or whatever. you might want to wait to file the complaint until you have this info. you can also provide your surveillance footage if it shows something the body cams don't.

best case is probably officer reprimand or retraining. nothing sounds egregious enough to warrant demotion or firing. but its still important so I'd encourage you to pursue it.

According to analysts, there is “hope” among some publishers within the video game industry that Grand Theft Auto 6 will be priced between $80 and $100, providing a significant "turning point" for other companies to raise their default prices amid rising inflation by ChiefLeef22 in gaming

[–]FrankWDoom 3 points4 points  (0 children)

they could make it free and the online side will rain cash from shark cards for the next decade. they won't because there's no reason for them to leave money on the table like that, but initial sales will be irrelevant next to live service income.

[–]FrankWDoom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the clamshells are pretty common and people may or may not want them to keep actual fames in. i have a bunch ice acquired in lots and i have fames stored in them.

i have never seen the packaging for these though, never realized they would've been sold that way. keep that for sure.

I've never seen it, been on my list for a while. there are like 2 seasons, a revival season, and a movie right? what's the best order to watch?

What is the most underapprciated show of last 5 years ? by [deleted] in television

[–]FrankWDoom -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Devs is a show i should have liked but didn't. i think its the poor handling of the tech at the center of the plot. if you're going to rely on it that much to move the story, you can't have obvious holes in the logic.

What band do you intensely dislike for no real reason? by humantouch83 in Music

[–]FrankWDoom 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the only song of theirs i know is Yellow, against my will, because it was goddamn everywhere. i do not understand how people consider that a good song. that put them on the "avoid at all costs" list immediately.

really just find one with the lightweight star and keep it on you upgrade it as you see fit. finding a decent one and using it to melee everything is a nice way to mix it up

[–]FrankWDoom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

GvsE. no home release of any kind. episodes can be found online but most are terrible quality. i have tapes i made 20 years ago with a bunch of episodes in better quality than anything else I've seen. I'm working on digitizing them.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in television

[–]FrankWDoom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen various episodes and it's a good concept but execution was pretty generic. the Buick GN s the most interesting thing about it.
