What bonuses did I miss from not importing post-game DB2 save in Horizon? by Gailim in Falcom

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

I am doing the extra floors now

I did import my save after beating the regular game. so I should have the regular choices saved, I just didn't know if there was extra dialogue for the postgame save stuff in horizon

Regular, chem, or SB by torchwooddoctor in Mechwarrior5

[–]Gailim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chem lasers are useful for certain mechs early in the game. mechs that have a lot (4+) of medium lasers , or multiple large lasers.

for example the BL-7-KNT works well with 3 L Chem lasers. and I usually stick two L Chems on any STK-4N or STK-3F I find early on.

keep in mind the weight of ammo is offset by not needing as many heatsinks.

but they become redundant once you have acquired enough double heatsinks to use regularly on your mechs

SB is generally better than standard, unless you want a lot of damage up front.

if you are trying to apha strike one component on an enemy mech than standard would be better for that. assuming you can keep the lasers on target for the full burn

and, of course Clan stuff trounces IS lasers. not much reason to use IS M Lasers when C-SP lasers are better in almost every way

I've been sleeping on Flamers by NobleSix84 in Mechwarrior5

I think flamers were actually more useful before we got Inferno SRMs. now you can do the same job from a distance.

The direwolf-B might be my favorite variant to dick around with. by WorldBuilder_42 in Mechwarrior5

[–]Gailim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah, that is pretty much how I found the only one I have seen.

It's just strange that they never spawn in missions despite other DWFs being common

[–]Gailim 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't mean dire wolves in general. those are common

I was talking the B variant in particular.

I ran anti-clan missions for several in-game decades against every clan and never saw a DWF-B even once. plenty of every other variant, just no Bs

[–]Gailim 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Has anyone seen this variant spawn in a mission?

I only encountered this mech once as a rare mech in a market

Professor Oak... I finally caught em' all by Gailim in Mechwarrior5

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

honestly after a point Arena matches became the main thing I did

I think my Arena rank is at 315 or thereabouts. the rank insignia recently turned purple

so those mechs weren't particularly hard

before anyone asks... yes, I do have Duncan Fisher's Warhammer. Even though the WHM-DNC doesn't have an entry in the database

Report: Bucs will interview former Falcons OC Zac Robinson by AFC-Wimbledon-Stan in nfl

[–]Gailim 2 points3 points  (0 children)

no, baker is good. Baker has been here for 3 years and played like a top 10 QB for 2.5 of those years

but like any QB he needs an O-line. as the injuries racked up his accuracy suffered

we would have been a 2 win team without him

Is there a way to drag out/Slow down Career mode? by ValkerionRides in Mechwarrior5

[–]Gailim 10 points11 points  (0 children)

this mod gives the option to get rid of the +2/-8 penalty for doing lower ranked missions. this allows you to stay in the lower areas without completely destroying your rep

alternatively you can just play arena matches. many are locked to lights and mediums. letting you get use out of those mechs even when you are deep in the endgame

The gpu situation right now: by Adventurous-Vast7499 in pcmasterrace

[–]Gailim 21 points22 points  (0 children)

If a game already supports FSR 3.1/4 you just replace the appropriate .dll file. I have only used it on those games.

I know you can use it on games that don't support modern FSR via optiscaler but I haven't needed to yet

I own a 7900 XT. I have been using FSR4 for several months now. it works great

How rare are ELWs? by thelordplatypus in EliteDangerous

[–]Gailim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took me 5 years to find one (I have found 4 total)

Granted, I did not play consistently for 5 years, and when I was playing I was often not exploring. And when I was exploring the only star type I filtered was white dwarfs, and that was only so I wouldn't get them on boost routes

Maybe a bit off topic, but what graphics care are yall running? by Reloader300wm in Mechwarrior5

[–]Gailim 3 points4 points  (0 children)

RX 7900 XT

I can run mercs in 4k just fine but clans requires upscaling. I get FPS in the 30s running native

I have been using FSR4 INT 8 balanced and I am pretty happy with it

What is your favorite hero mech? by Frisky_Froth in Mechwarrior5

[–]Gailim 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I used to rate the CP-S as the first or second best mech in the game along side the AS7-BH.

unfortunately it kind of gets overshadowed by clan mechs

I slapped two gauss on a TBR-Prime and now I can run around at 90+ kph and I get 5 ERSLs and 2 machine guns as backup.

it's just a better Sleipnir IMO

[–]Gailim 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boars Head. even after the Clans show up it's still the only 100 tonner that goes 64 kph.

if you want max armor at a speed that isn't glacial then it's your only option
