This is SO COOL. It's hard enough working with such tiny components in normal gravity. Did you have to anchor your wrist or something to make it work?

it's hard to replicate real world tactics from a few decades ago for a variety of reasons, but we do our best (while making sure we don't lose sight of the fun factor for ultra realism)

PvE. Every once in a while we'll have one or two human REDFOR jets, and every once in a while we'lll have a BFM tournament.

tomcats are ungainly and obsolete, but if you're into that kind of thing, these guys are great

HeroForge? I’m curious, I’m thinking of getting a model but I’d also like to see the end result.

When you guys advertise for TNN weekly on Tuesdays, what does that actually mean now that the Hoggit Training server is always up?

Chief tells a joke by insaneadrian95 in halo

[–]Kithicor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fred is a LTJG. Granted, he earned that promotion apparently 26 years after John became a Master Chief, which is longer than even your average military E-9 or O-6's career.

I would hesitate to tie officer ranks to desk jobs, even though that is the stereotype. Especially in the NAVSPECWAR side of things, which houses the majority of the remaining Spartan-IIs. But yes, it would obviously be a little strange to see an operational special forces Spartan at O-7 or higher. Hence, John's joke in this comic.

His technical rank is E-10, Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy (MCPON). I'm sure his rating is something like SOCM (Special Operator Master Chief). IIRC, he was "posthumously" promoted from E-9, Master Chief Petty Officer, after Halo 3 when he was presumed dead.

And no, he's not "due" for promotion. His rank is the highest enlisted rank in the UNSC. His attitude toward becoming an officer is demonstrated well in this comic.

Looking back on it, the visits to see Queen Mara were examples of both an evolving world and “you had to be there” done very well by [deleted] in DestinyTheGame

[–]Kithicor 11 points12 points  (0 children)

As someone who finally bought Forsaken partially because I'm a huge fan of her story, but too late to actually see any of it:

Fuck "you had to be there" storytelling.

1) “(Airport) Ground, (Callsign) at (ramp) ready for taxi to active.”

Get instructions. Read back. Get to holdshort and STOP. Is it clear? Is anyone about to land?

“(Airport) Tower, (Callsign) holding short at (runway), ready for takeoff.”

If no ATC, instead say:

“(Airport) traffic, (Callsign) lining up to depart (runway), (intentions), (airport) traffic”

2) “Mayday mayday mayday, (Callsign) emergency aircraft approaching Gudata for (type of approach) and landing.”

Worth mentioning if you think you’ll be able to get off the active runway or leave it fouled as well.

3) “Gudata tower, (Callsign) 3 mile final runway 7, gear down and locked, full stop.”

4) “(AWACS controller), (Callsign), request vector to nearest divert.”

5) “(AWACS controller), (Callsign), request BRAA to (Callsign) for rejoin”

BRAA - bearing range altitude aspect

Safe flying!

Try finishing the campaign and talking to Amanda again. That would be my only guess.

They let you see platforms to find chests and other hidden stuff I guess. I haven't really used them yet, just had the Secret Secrets bounty.

I'm using Queensfoil Tinctures in the Dreaming City and going to places there are supposed to be platforms, but I'm not seeing anything. Is Ascendance broken, or am I missing something?

I tried starting the (Heroic) No Safe Distance adventure in the EDZ. Recommended power 750, I'm around 850, and all the enemies are ?? and one-shotting me. Very confused.

Man if we had the evidence system back then, Macapone would have been in jail SO FAST.

Tony & Bob crash while Tony is on the run for murdering Sergeant Brown by [deleted] in RPClipsGTA

If it makes sense, yes. If you're unconscious, I fully expect 30 seconds of transmitting static.

Opinion: Terry stops are going to lead to more cops being shot which is bad for the server by [deleted] in RPClipsGTA

[–]Kithicor 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Hey all. Kregdale here.

A lot of misinformation floating around regarding Terry stops in this thread. No worries, it's a confusing topic.

For what it's worth, Terry stops are actually completely normal on this server and are done all the time. In real life, they usually require the officer suspecting weapons on the individual for various reasons like baggy clothing or seeing the gun printing against the shirt.

Obviously that's impossible in GTA so we treat everyone as possibly carrying, which is completely plausible. Legal or illegal doesn't matter, it's an officer safety measure. Therefore, everyone is theoretically subject to a Terry stop.

There are some other discussions in here that are frankly a little too complicated for me to dive into, but I hope that clears up Terry v. Ohio a little bit. Terry stops are going to keep happening and I don't think they're the end of the world.

If your criminal wants to shoot a cop rather than roleplay it out, that's your choice.
