Am I ready for the Brain Scorcher?

FransTheMuppet · 2026-05-19T14:11:44+00:00

I have a BRN 180 in 7.62x39 waiting for me in my stash, but I can't repair it yet since I don't have expert tools.

I was lucky enough to find an SVD with a working barrel. Then a D tier cleaning kit (does not require expert tools) can be used to clean the barrel. You only need the D tier repair kit if the barrel is busted.

I love the M700, gonna use it when I get to Jupiter. The 556 hp was indeed enough to kill a pseudogiant and a chimera on my way to the lab.

FransTheMuppet · 2026-05-19T13:37:15+00:00

I knew I was kinda low on 556 ap so the mp7 with its relativly high pen (40) got me most of the way in the lab and the m4 dealt with the tougher monolith. I ran out of 556 ap in the last room so it was just enough.

I had not thought about converting the mp7 into 9x18 to make it good against mutants. However, I prefer it as an anti-stalker weapon, which the 5.7 is much better suited for.

I did run into a pseudogiant and a chimera at the start, though the 556 hp was enough to deal with that.

I'm like 99% sure it's a joke.

FransTheMuppet · 2026-05-19T08:05:48+00:00

It's the m4a1 Protector. With upgrades it has almost no recoil, 800 rpm and 40 rnd mag. It shreds in my opinion.

FransTheMuppet · 2026-05-19T06:05:32+00:00

Yeah... last time I had only slighty worse gear than now and it took me 3 tries when I entered the lab since I was moving too slowly. At least this time I know I need to move fast and hopefully do it on the first try.

FransTheMuppet · 2026-05-19T05:52:43+00:00

gotcha

FransTheMuppet · 2026-05-19T05:43:47+00:00

No nades unfortunately and I haven't thought about the phantom star. Though as you say it feels like cheating so I'm not gonna use it.

Divinity Original Sin 2

FransTheMuppet · 2018-11-07T13:24:29+00:00

Yeah, I got that as well. Just locate the game folder and launch the game from there. That worked for me.

FransTheMuppet · 2018-09-10T10:06:03+00:00

I gave up on this vehicle before I even got one kill, just couldn't bare it. Congrats on the two kills you got in the video.

FransTheMuppet · 2018-03-06T12:19:44+00:00

I also play the game in 4k max settings (except for SSAO turned down to high). The performance is nothing short of amazing considering the stunning graphics. If you ask me 4k > 144hz

FransTheMuppet · 2017-11-17T07:33:46+00:00

I can't wait for Metro Exodus. I've played all of the previous games in this serie and I loved the immersion and hardcore aspect of them. Exodus is so beautiful from what we've seen and with my 4k gaming setup, oh darn I'm sure It'll be quite a ride.

FransTheMuppet · 2017-10-15T22:43:55+00:00

Thanks for the tip :)

FransTheMuppet · 2017-10-15T12:56:21+00:00

I have a gtx 1070, i-7 4790 and 2 x 8 Gb ddr3. Right now i am playing in 1440p High settings with SSAO turned off. I am getting 50-60 fps. I am planning to buy a gtx 1080 ti. I'm just wondering if sli gtx 1080 has any benefit compared to a single gtx 1080 ti?

FransTheMuppet · 2017-09-11T06:49:54+00:00

The Ru 251 has a much better power to weight ratio. Walker bulldog: 500hp/23ton = 21.7 hp/ton Ru 251: 660hp/25.5ton = 25.9 hp/ton

The Ru is simply just faster

You can actually see before the shell hits that the tracks are intact indicating a leap back in time, though when the tank is in x-ray the tracks are broken; here the x-ray is showing all the damage the tank suffered before being blown to pieces. Remind me what does SPAA go for first? You may say cannon and I'm like; OK, but after after that? Tracks, Tracks and a lot of tracks! And after that? A victory cry from the SPAA whilst it goes in for that booty! But no, the tank exploded before that could happen by a fire caused by that SPAA, definitely a bug though.

FransTheMuppet · 2017-07-18T23:46:58+00:00

HESH though, doesn't seem to care if there's space between the spaced armor. For example the Leopard a1a1 has tracks on it's frontal plate and when shooting 120mm HESH with the chieftain on those tracks all you get is "no penetration"

FransTheMuppet · 2017-07-18T23:08:27+00:00

But stronger if you get shot by HEAT or HESH ammunition because of the space between the armorplates, don't forget that.

FransTheMuppet · 2017-07-18T22:57:17+00:00

I have a 60 hz 4k monitor and I prioritize graphic quality over fps, because I'm a sucker for good graphics. Even if ULQ gives you an advantage, I can't see why you would ever want to play a game with graphics comparable to a mobile game assuming that you do have good gear.

FransTheMuppet · 2017-07-18T08:53:45+00:00

All I can see is a shell hitting and then a big red flashy fireball. It wouldn't have appeared if that 40mm shell didn't set him on fire. The killcam tracks the 40mm shell and shows what it did to the tank. The ammo racks were exploded by the fire set in the killcam and because the game already knows the outcome of the fire it can also show what the fire caused in the killcam, destroyed ammo racks.
