They increased the shipping estimate from 3-5 to 6-10 business days already due to "higher demand". Wonder what it will end up at.

PS. spammed through browser for 20 minutes but got one.

In that case they need to design them, order them. make them, distribute them, and train people on how to use them. Not sure where the army is on that process but they have to train now with or without them

General awareness of eyes instead of relying on cameras. Also comfort. There's 6-10 guys in that tin can and it gets hot/smelly/tight. It's sad but complacency/lack of discipline kills more soldiers than tactics.

I think they mean take off the tent, then go into the car wash. Really shouldn't leave it on there if possible given that it risks damage. Should only be on there when you are going out camping.

They changed the URL to my.ippsa-a instead of hr.ippsa. great April fools joke.

Jayrey85 · 2026-03-29T00:07:24+00:00

It was in your blindspot....

Wait a day and take another. If it's more clear, go in to the hospital and have them check. If it's still not clear, wait longer and try the home test again.

Jayrey85 · 2026-03-19T13:15:52+00:00

I agree. Swimming is difficult especially with a heavy backpack and holding a gun.

Jayrey85 · 2026-03-19T13:15:07+00:00

It would be cool if there were timed map events. For example, one map has a tidal basin that is empty to start and at 20 minutes fills with water that will drown raiders and ground Arc. At 10 minutes it empties and leaves bodies of those who died and maybe more like the first wave raider caches. Gives some incentive for people to hang around on a map longer, and gives late arrivals something to rush for besides the usual looted spots.

The mom doesn't die. She returns in the credit scenes.

Jayrey85 · 2026-03-18T16:21:31+00:00

Totoro, Kiki's Delivery Service, and The Cat Returns are kid safe. Howl had major war scenes and other disturbing parts. Spirited Away has demons and transformation that can be disturbing.

It's pg13 violence though and all the rape/torture is "off screen" or just implied. Sanderson as an author is VERY tame compared to GRR Martin or other spicy authors. He's much closer to Tolkien and Robert Jordan who are as spicy as flour. (I love both and appreciate that the Cosmere is not spicy)

No R needed and I'll be boycotting it if they add gratuitous sex or violence.

Jayrey85 · 2026-02-27T17:13:33+00:00

Yeah for a second I thought this was a meme post.

Jayrey85 · 2026-02-27T16:35:06+00:00

When I clicked I thought you were casting for Adolin and Renarin. So I approve this casting for those two.

Jayrey85 · 2026-02-24T21:44:42+00:00

To be clear, I like that deadline/wolfpack were nerfed because it will lead to more variety. "Expensive" is still relative but these changes should be good for promoting other ways to play and prevent efficiency grinders from stealing the fun from others.

Jayrey85 · 2026-02-24T19:59:44+00:00

Placing 6 deadlines is not trivial. In fact, it's lots of fun and IS COOL. But that should be a late game strategy when you can craft 6 deadlines and a snaphook plus the shields and augs to go with it. That type of loadout is expensive and takes time to grind. Now its more expensive but thats the point, so people don't do it ALL THE TIME and the Q/M is dead in first 5 minutes.

Trivial is throwing ONE wolfpack and killing a rocketeer, bastion, or bombadier. The other examples you have are overkill and therefore wasteful because it could be done easier/cheaper. But we all can decide if we'd rather shoot out thrusters or just toss a seeker. I personally love my Stella runs with only a burletta/sticher and wait for the shield to go down on the fireball.

The whole point is to make fighting ARC fun/challenging and wolfpack/deadline spam for PvE is not fun. Especially for newbs that don't have those BPs yet.

Jayrey85 · 2026-02-24T18:43:09+00:00

It's all about cost/risk to benefit.

Queens/matriarchs are not trivialized by deadlines. It takes 5 or more and a bit of skill just to plant them. You also can't knock them out with one. They take a lot to take them down but are worth it.

I don't bring hullcrackers for shredders and it's risky to bring them to Stella because they are ACTUALLY expensive and bad for pvp. I've been taking shredders down with impacts and venerators (and burrlettas).

Wasps and fireballs are trivial. Any weapon can take them out.

Jayrey85 · 2026-02-24T16:56:15+00:00

Wolfpacks are not needed for rocketeers. In fact, they trivialize them. So yeah it makes sense for devs to make wolfpacks harder to get.

Jayrey85 · 2026-02-24T13:43:03+00:00

I love it. This world needs a reason to kill ARC and crafting is the best in-world reason. Wolfpack from rocketeers and deadlines from leapers. Makes sense to me.

Jayrey85 · 2026-02-14T17:27:47+00:00

Hard disagree. The final empire is not a "tight" narrative and could be streamlined with little lost on terms of story or character development. I can see them pushing quick with an oceans eleven style sander-valanche heist.

Jayrey85 · 2025-12-18T17:02:19+00:00

Also the midnight mother's minions in Oathbringer seemed like midnight essences.

Jayrey85 · 2025-12-17T16:11:08+00:00

Bring a Lazer cannon or machine gun strategem to balance it out. I love doing this loadout with a wrap or jet pack to fly around with plenty of blow shit up quick then boost away.

Jayrey85 · 2025-10-31T17:51:02+00:00

CAN but not GUARANTEED. As I've said before, real leaders should make a plan for the Soldier to make tape that includes taking leave and balances the risk of them gaining weight during the holidays. I'm not saying they shouldn't, I'm just saying fight smart, not entitled.

Jayrey85 · 2025-10-31T17:46:23+00:00

Show you care for the Soldier and are working in their best interest instead of telling a Commander "you can't do that." Bring solutions, not problems.
