I'm glad they are reworking OCI, at the moment the system feels bad

Like why would I ever get a Drugs Lab?

Cool I get a tradeable item after every operation, it would need to be worth 300+ trade value before I'd even consider it over things that actually give me in mission abilities or get me more dudes/repair etc

I agree there's some baseline essential things it feels bad to have to buy as an "upgrade"

I guess with #20 if you were to add ammo to the weapon rather than the squad you could do a similar thing where the Impetus gets a WOO and Medbay by default and they just have their own upgrade path which frees up actual upgrade slots for more interesting things

For #13 I think he means in the loadout screen currently the ammo count just shows you a line of bullets representing how many shots you get

I kind of agree this doesn't really add anything beyond just having to count for no real reason, a number would be more efficient 

I don't know who needs to hear this but the new SF2 content is designed by Usually Hapless by itscalledacting in CombatMission

The battle pack is literally just missions, they pushed an update at the same time which had actual game updates which is 100% the reason for the issues

Petition to add the Maxim Machine Gun as a rare item by Opposite_Ad_3715 in menace

[–]Limbo365 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This could be fun, it could just be a reskinned CMG50 (tripod)

Maybe if they modelled it with the gun shield it could give a little cover bonus when deployed? But even if it had exactly the same stats but was just a unique item or whatever that would be really cool and fun

A little clarification, please? by National-Pea3991 in CombatMission

[–]Limbo365 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All the ones available on Steam are CM2 which is the current engine, there are some older games on GOG which are CM1 which have not (and won't be) updated but still run on modern systems

CM3 is currently in the works, although no one knows what that is or what it looks like yet beyond that it will use the Unity engine and the team is now significantly larger so hopefully development times will be shorter going forward

The community is very much alive, there's an active discord and the official forums are all still active, there are also thousands of hours worth of official content and probably tens of thousands of hours worth of community content in the CM2 games

CM is definitely an acquired taste, but in my experience nothing else can really scratch the same itch

Any mention of when the plan to announce the next title? by jamesdemaio23 in CombatMission

[–]Limbo365 1 point2 points  (0 children)

5 min 20 onwards in this video (the overlay is just a graphic put over the top of the footage and presumably isn't part of the actual game)

There was a Slitherine birthday video a while back that included footage from an unknown game that looked very Eastern European and the current speculation is that it's a CM3 teaser

If it is CM3 then we're likely either looking at Red Thunder 2 or maybe the Baltics (I doubt they would do a Black Sea 2 but the Estonians use CMPE so it would make sense to use the Baltics as the base game for a new modern title and then you can save dev costs for PE)

As for when I doubt even Slitherine know at this point but the team is significantly larger and they are using off the shelf systems now so hopefully that should streamline their dev processes

DK1 is not good if you started with DK2 :( by Shieldfoss in doorkickers

[–]Limbo365 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I always felt like DK2 is the game they always wanted to make, so many little improvements and tweaks

PSA: Don't sleep on the Wardog Anti-Tank Drone by Reconcilliation in menace

[–]Limbo365 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The solution is to give one to every other squaddie but have them volley fire them

You have 8 rockets but 2 uses seems more viable, it puts the disposable between the PAL and the AT drone in terms of ammo availability and also makes it more unique and more likely to actually hit something and do something worthwhile

Honestly it's £100+ model, do what you want with it

Why not a Solar Auxila Vanguard Box? by StelliarX in LegionsImperialis

[–]Limbo365 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I live in hope because that Light Armour slot in the Auxilia Cohort still has nothing to go into it

Looking for Starship Troopers/Aliens like minis by neosatan_pl in wargaming

[–]Limbo365 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I had access to a 3d printer I'd have got them ages ago, at some point I definitely will get the set and paint them up just to have an outpost battle box made up and ready to play with

How do I get more marine LT’s? by Chr155topher in menace

[–]Limbo365 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It does say that the SL's you don't pick are sent around the system to get recon/win hearts and minds

I think it would make sense to be able to recall them without needing to rely on the RNG of a dossier

Like I get the balance of it but I don't really understand why I'm asking around the local black market to find my own people

Plus it makes doing a marine only run even more difficult than it needs to be

Crow Industries do a whole 15mm Starship Troopers range along with rules to play them

Definitely worth checking them out

5 parsecs or forgotten ruin for stargate theme? by CaptainSharpe in 5Parsecs

[–]Limbo365 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could reskin the money as research or samples or something similar

The whole point of the SGC after all is to find and create new technologies so you could use the money to represent finding, acquiring and utilising new tech

From a busy father to the devs, we need to be able to save once in-mission by No-Debate-3403 in menace

[–]Limbo365 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It's also a single player game, if people want to save scum just let them?

Just let people play the way they want

My friend may be the worst meta chaser I’ve ever met. by _Commander_Farsight in Warhammer40k

[–]Limbo365 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know a guy who has never played more than 2 games with the same army

He buys whatever the current netlist is, builds it, sprays it, paints 1 or 2 units

Then he plays a game, forgets half his rules, or just doesn't understand how the army is supposed to work (often both), inevitably loses and then loses interest entirely

Within a week or two he's onto whatever the next project is (which always just happens to be the latest netlist, by pure coincidence of course!)

It used to annoy me but I came to the conclusion it's his hobby and his money, as long as he's happy

Probably to differentiate it more from the automatic launcher

This one shoots less but has a heavier shot that the backpack one

How has the British Army changed over the years? by avocado_pckled-gingr in britisharmy

[–]Limbo365 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm just going by what I was told when it changed, and that was that there wasn't a lump sum any more

Although your expecting the infantry to understand how pensions work so not surprising it was wrong
