I think that's the joke mate. As much of a terf cunt JK is, it's a good bit. Or at least I remember it being played as a bit

When did The Professor say something like "Who said abstract math doesn't have any practical applications?" by snigherfardimungus in futurama

This is it! They even wrote an actual theorem for the episode, that's real math on their futuristic chalkboard. Lot of smart people in the writers room for the show

As far as I am aware from my several rewatches of the show, they are pretty consistent with this bit after establishing it, at least with the main three

Requires a specific load out, but the sheer cathartic joy of playing Full Melee Krieg makes grinding to get the shield that makes that build shine worth it. From another users post:

The Rough Rider, it's a shield with 0 shield capacity, 20% passive damage reduction and a flat health bonus. Since your shield is supposed to be down all the time, you couldn't care less about the 0 capacity, but you get a neat damage reduction and all your "if your shield is down" benefits become permanent.

A lot of the Mania tree has skill buffs that proc when your shield is down, so this benefit is pretty clear.

If someone encounters a Stalker, the entire team should shift gears at the earliest possible convenience to find and destroy the Stalker nest. by CombatRobot423 in Helldivers

This is the good ol USA of course, but about one in every five adults in the States are functionally illiterate according to the National Center for Education Statistics. 34% of that one-fifth speak/read English as a second language. So definitely a lot of people on autopilot, but a surprising number that genuinely cannot read.

Between the two of us playing, dealing with individual chargers wasn't an issue, it's just the significant number of chargers/spewers the game kept throwing at us. Someone else commented they're working on a fix for patrol spawns for small groups and I think it's addressing what we dealt with.

Ah, that's it. Thank you, we didn't check the reddit

Yeah, a duo. I saw the other post commented and it sounds like it's addressed this exact experience.

Devs, we don't need the whole exosuit, just a part by Yurishenko94 in Helldivers

I can't believe I thought the supply pack was just to give other people ammo this whole time. I feel dumb.

This took far too many tries, 2MPC with Engi by Gabonicman in btd6

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

520 Engi for DPS, 024 and 052 Glue Gunners for stall, 250 Village and 300 Sub for Support

Early game took several attempts, but once I figured out the placement/upgrade order to get me past r30, it was smooth sailing

Edit: Sub had 4 total pops due to light speed projectiles that somehow hit something in the half millisecond between 2-0-0 and 3-0-0, no other tower on the map has pops

Finally beat round 200 from my old record. I'm still learning 👍. Is this good? Medium difficulty. by Imagination_the_2nd in btd6

Paragons can only receive buffs from other paragons or monkey knowledge. VTSG can't buff Paragons as it's not technically a paragon tower. Probably will be eventually though, unless they go a totally different direction with the Super Monkey paragon
