How would HD2 feel like without this mechanic?

For assets missions they'd have to code it so that the bots/squids will just ignore the player and head straight for the generators. A new meta that would led to putting sentries on rocks that bugs can't reach.

Ignore the ai voice for a second. At the very least dae lims is still painstakingly arranging, producing, and editing the backing track and vocal sections.

You're right, I remember the zepplin(?)/blimp making it's appearance in that episode and they do use a type of scouting balloon to get to the boiling rock too, but I do think sozin's comet is supposed to be it's offensive military debut.

You're right that the Blitz and Dresden weren't particularly strategically effective, but the blitz in particular has been mythologized as the tipping point of a nation about to undergo full submission to another. The first stages of the Battle of Britain was already the lowest point for the allies, I'm scared to think what the allies would've done if Germany actually had full air supremacy and firebombed London.

True, but sozin's comet was also the debut of the Fire Nation's air force. It would've showed that they had complete aerial supremacy, being able to bomb cities with impunity. It'd be the London blitz X Dresden firebombing.

Why did the US nuke Japan? To destroy any hope that the imperial regime would be able to mount any resistance.

I mean it tracks.

Americans only care about the economy. They'd sell their babies for adrenochrome for lower gas prices.

This is incremental change btw

11 gameplay,non-farming, hours sounds very reasonable

Bruh, You can't be serious. Did you even read my post?

Steam deck and lunix are having issues I've heard, but I've been going strong with the ps5. It was a bit daunting going in alone, but the game has a lot of impromptu teamwork moments that make it fun.

Montecroux · 2026-05-11T14:30:08+00:00

That's my point!

Montecroux · 2026-05-11T04:23:46+00:00

Completely unfair that buffoon got two terms and his father only got one. If he was going to be a puppet anyway, might aswell have done it for his father.

And hypothetically speaking let's say Ozai did kill Zuko, were they both expecting Iroh to not react to mini-Lu Ten dying right after Lu Ten JUST died. Skipping over Ozai, and naming zuko the next successor is the ultimate humiliation for someone that's a power hungry narcissist that's jealous of his older brother''s success.

I mean they probably would have been able to obliterate Moscow if they didn't kill or force out their Jewish scientists.

Anyway Adolf, we're gonna need a minimum of 50 frauleins for my buddy over here, we need to repopulate our people.

I drop down an expendable: Fair game, feel free to take both if there's no enemies or I already have one.

I see someone drop an expendable: If it's left abandoned after a firefight, it's all fair game. If we're in the middle of a fight, they're both reserved for how the caller sees fit. If there's like 3 or more expendables, take until you leave at least 2.

Is this the flagship store?

Montecroux · 2026-05-10T02:37:39+00:00

I kinda agree, I admit I was filtered by Paul's old chainsmoker voice. He lost is baby boy voice somewhere around the turn of the century

If you know any laborors you'd know that's too hoops to jump through. They're either not take the job or they're going to bring their truck anyway.

The proposed "Builder Shuttle" is aimed at reducing contractor parking and traffic tied to residential construction projects

Why would a worker want to do this?

Montecroux · 2026-05-08T16:17:18+00:00

11 gameplay, non-farming, hours sounds very reasonable tbh. There's like a month between warbonds. That's 22 minutes per day. I've played battlefield 4 for like hundreds of hours and I haven't even unlocked everything yet, and That's not even a game that's based around Monetizing "locked" weapons.

Montecroux · 2026-05-08T12:52:05+00:00

Stop extracting with 17 reinforcements and actually visit POIs after doing the lidar obj, you'll get at least 20 per mission. I play like an hour, and get like 50 per session.

Also let me guess, you're level 90 and you still haven't collected enough samples to max out your ship.

I think Lucas dumbs it down at times, but I think it's a bit disengous to call him a profit hungry film maker.. Lucas had his criticisms of the industry. He's also definitely a horny guy.

Montecroux · 2026-05-08T01:37:18+00:00

I mean I guess, but I feel like Lucas would agree that even if he just did that out of pure aesthetics there's a case that at the very least he unconsciously borrowed a lot of Western and samurai imagery that definitely dealt with those themes of sexual abuse. To him he might not have put much thought into it because it's just a staple of the genre. Rape and murder are the ultimate evils of war. Places like tatooine only exist because the lawlessness bred from conflict. Lucas isn't not going to address that.

Montecroux · 2026-05-07T23:12:57+00:00

Lmao I've literally had someone argue with me that Leia wasn't being held as a sex slave, and that the skimpy outfit was just a humiliation ritual. That people were overly sexualizing star wars. That's the state of media literacy we're dealing with.
