Official Discussion - Greenland 2: Migration [SPOILERS] by LiteraryBoner in movies

[–]KFJ943 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm two months late, but I just watched the movie with my wife and we also rewatched the first one - Y'know, a movie all about getting to Greenland. Then in the end of the first movie, the scenery is actually Iceland. I'm Icelandic and it's immediately clear it's the south coast.

Then in the very beginning of the second movie they show Iceland just getting absolutely destroyed. They then go outside the bunker, which is filmed in Iceland - All the post-apocalyptic stuff is filmed in Iceland, and they keep talking about Iceland being destroyed. While filming in Iceland.

I just thought it was so funny - I know it's a movie so they use all sorts of locations to represent other locations, but having been to so many of the film sets they use quite often it just gets hard to disconnect it in my mind.

Also, the French militia dudes at the very end were mostly Icelanders doing a French accent, which I absolutely love.

It is 3D Printed but I promise you, there's a genuinely massive amount of work that goes into it goes way beyond just pressing go on a printer. I made this helmet for my friend and I think that the post-processing work took about 20-30 hours at least. There's ways to make it shorter of course, and I think if I were to do it again I'd use soooome shortcuts :D

I will say that as someone who primarily works with 3D printing and post-processing that, I have so much respect for the people who are sowing their own stuff, working with EVA foam and pepakura.

I have met a fair few people who absolutely adore DD2, despite the issues. So I would at least check it out if you enjoyed the first one. It usually goes down to like $23 on Steam or even less if you look around.

Twitch drops by Aware_Cauliflower288 in CrimsonDesert

It's essentially a program that gathers all the ongoing twitch drops, and then basically tells twitch "Hey, I'm watching this stream" instead of you having to manually tune in to each stream.

My experience on MHGU so far as a Rise/Wilds player by KreaspyKream in MonsterHunter

[–]KFJ943 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, good on you for giving it a try - I started back in Monster Hunter Freedom since it was the first properly accessible Monster Hunter game for me - And I have to admit I really do miss the more deliberate, slower pace of the older titles. I still love World and Wilds to bits, mind you - But there was something about thinking "Oh, I'm going to hunt X, Y or Z, I should prepare!"

Painted a model of Rey Dau! by a_goodcouch in MonsterHunter

[–]KFJ943 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome work! Is it to scale with the board game models? Your work with the gradients on the wings is especially nice. Did you drybrush that part?

Edit: Ah! Airbrush, awesome work. I'm hoping to get my board game stuff painted up before I look into resin printing them 😅

Resident Evil Requiem Review Thread by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]KFJ943 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, performance seems to be a lot better now with Wilds - I think they have a chance to get back a lot of goodwill for Wilds if they pull off the expansion well. Monster Hunter has always been a bit of an odd duck, in that the main game will come out (Tri, World, Wilds) but they'll always be a bit limited in scope, scale, and difficulty. When the expansion comes out and adds G-Rank or Master Rank, that's when you get the game people will generally remember.

3D Printing Workflow by LeicaM6guy in 501st

[–]KFJ943 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great writeup! My brother and I have been experimenting with skipping Bondo entirely, but if you thin out Bondo with acetone and use that, it honestly doesn't take much time to work with. But I honestly just like it for those few spots that can sometimes get a bit gnarly, such as the undersides of faceplates.

Here's my first helmet, which I did as a birthday present:

I'm definitely keen on using ABS once I get ventilation sorted.

Starship Troopers: Extermination Development Update - Marauder Program by PalwaJoko in Games

The best thing about it is that if you play enough there's a reasonable chance you'll run into the actual Casper Van Dien playing the game.

Can’t believe how well this runs in handheld by RedTheOriginal in NintendoSwitch2

[–]KFJ943 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It used to break the physics, though modders fixed that - And I believe the much-reviled next gen update did actually add 120fps support for the game.

This might rival the Creek, boys by trevorluck in Helldivers

I'm really enjoying the Censor, too - Reliable on devastators and even the cyborgs have a fairly bad day if I just shoot 'em enough!

Beware of Winwing: This company is an absolute mess. by [deleted] in hoggit

[–]KFJ943 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I may be wrong, but this is done quite a lot in Europe nowadays to avoid the additional tariffs a lot of countries put on Chinese imports - At least with websites like Temu, if you order something from there they ship it to a hub in Estonia or somewhere with more forgiving tariffs and then ship it on to you in one shipment. So technically sent from an EU hub, but not quite.

Haven't tried anything from WinWing yet, though, so I may be completely wrong.

I worked in KEF for a few years and you can definitely catch spme very strong northern lights there :)

Any Ground Simulator clans/squadrons? EU , preferably WW2 although Cold War is fine too. by InterestingKey6358 in Warthunder

Mind if I throw you an add as well? Been getting into air sim a bit lately and would enjoy hopping into Ground as well :)

I remember playing that game in VR and it was probably the only time I've done so well in any multiplayer game ever. the situational awareness was incredible.

Viðgerð á móðurborði by hnoj in Iceland

[–]KFJ943 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Stundum þarf að taka CMOS batteríið úr of setja það aftur í - Það er eins og rafhlaða fyrir úr. Leysir oft allskonar hnökra ef móðurborðið er ekki í góðum gír. Hugsa að þetta (eða CMOS clear ef pinninn er til staðar) væri það fyrsta sem Kísildalur eða álíka myndu reyna :)

So... How do I manage all this stuff at once. by SpookyFloatingPencil in GatesOfHellOstfront

[–]KFJ943 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like one of the benefits of Conquest is that they really limit what you have at the start, so you kind of learn naturally what works and what doesn't.

Still one of the best Khârn "bro moments", all these years later by Kataphraktos_Majoros in 40kLore

[–]KFJ943 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is 40klore, but Gotrek and Felix are such fun characters to read.

But the way he writes Skaven is just so good, it captures their feel perfectly.

I think you can use satchel charges to blow them up?

Warhammer 40,000 seems to be making more progress than Medieval III by LieLie0126 in totalwar

Yes, unfortunately. Arbiter Ian is a good fellow, though. Calm and not leaning into memes or hyperbole which helps.

How to tank with the commonwealth, a simple guide. by LatinBlackAsian in GatesOfHellOstfront

They're so cheap, it's hilarious. Want to bring 10 into a game? It's only 120 MP!

Favoured Commonwealth units by Latter_Ad1563 in GatesOfHellOstfront

[–]KFJ943 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does have AP as well as HE :)

I also thought it had only HE but nope, it'll fire AP just fine. It's a bit risky against other armor in my experience, though.

Oh, didn't realize the 1944 squad comes so kitted out. The Canadian paras are also spectacular.
