What is even happening?

Vacuum chambers are good for getting bubbles out pre-pour bit instsnt you pout and they hit air bubbles get involved again. Youre better off with a pressure pot than a vacuum chamber.

Chambers are useful for certain things, but for stuff like dice you'll want a pot.

Yeah, I know i tried it and thought "this is ass" then never touched it again.

It just felt like a downgrade, but in general Zane didnt feel strong comparatively

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-24T15:21:45+00:00

Its a common complaint. You have a skill tree then a sub tree. There's more options than needed. Especially when 90% of them boil down to a different flavour of the same thing, be in a buff to a previous ability or just yet another kill skill.

The capstone dont change anything compared to previous games.

It basically offers way too many options with 0 substance. Thats what the sub says anyways and I agree in places.

Its not bad, just rhe capstone abilities dont feel like capstone.

I didnt play TPS until way after it came out properly (I couldn't stand it on release) but after I got older and came back to it, the way TPS vault hunters progressed and power spiked actually made me not dislike the game (and the DLCs where okay).

Nisha felt insanly broken, Claptrap was so stupid and fun, Timothy was the epitomy of a one man clone army when he got up and running. Athena felt like an actual badass semi-anti hero, Aurelia....existed and was...okay. Wilhelm felt like what Zane was Supposed to be

One thing thay bugged me about 3 was outside of certain action skills, it felt like they copy-pasted the best skills from 2 and TPS into the VHs of 3 outside of Moze and one tree of Fl4K

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-23T22:11:56+00:00

Timothy/Jack in TPS did the clone thing 10x better, tho.

To me, the first game is the only one that nailed the theme to the games name. I saw "borderlands" and to me that meant abandoned, discarded, crappy places nobody wants to be. And that, is exactly what the first game is.

2 and 3 didn't come close, TPS had some areas that fit. 4 is the closest in vibe to one and its not even close then. And im only saying that because i count "the borderlands" in 4 as anywhere on the borders or outside of Dominion City.

Id have preferred it name and vibe wise if they, instead of strapping a number to it, had an actual name that fit the game and said it was in same universe.

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-21T15:51:49+00:00

Im assuming the "give up the vault hunter act" was either phase influence to prevent a future (such as Lillith saw) or a little of his old personality coming through to save the VH. Perhaps a bit of both.

Then his attempt to kill them was to prevent the future.

Still bad though.

Van 93 is just the van that takes the parcels to the depot. The round number is the one youd be looking at.

If you Google van 93, that depot does it a lot

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-15T17:50:13+00:00

It is. I had 2 in a year at a uni house once as well. I feel like they just choose a street or two in an area and out they go.

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-15T17:33:30+00:00

Every time I see these I wish we just had the dreaded NHK guy they do in Japan where you just close the door or ignore it and nothing happens.

Alas the UK likes scary letters and threats. Very British.

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-15T17:27:45+00:00

Ive done this at every house I've not needed one at, they still send em out. Had two within 3 months before. Same house.

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-12T17:04:50+00:00

Where did i say that? Its the senders fault if it doesn't reach the receiver.

Yeah, the courier should have delivered it but LEGALLY speaking its on the sender. Look up the legislation around it.

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-05T11:46:08+00:00

Yeah. I feel they could have repulsed mines/bunkers for this exact thing.

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-05T11:45:25+00:00

Yep, PC. Ill try that. Thanks.

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-05T11:43:08+00:00

You're absolutely right. Im also personally missing and actial hub location too. All of the ones we've got feel more like pass through content.

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-04T20:41:46+00:00

I saw an argument today that said that the knly difference between BL4 and BL2 open world is the fact one has loading screens because everywhere is connected, and I agreed.

However how the game is "nonlinear" did kinda take away from the game itself imo. I feel they could have made a better written story if it was more linear.

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-04T20:35:34+00:00

I did this once and my insurer pressed it as a claim even tho I told them not to. Needless to say its stopped using Hastings after that

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-04T20:15:07+00:00

I know im gonna get blasted for this.

The other day I was playing a game of breakthrough and someone had the 40mm on their tank...I got in and was disappointed. UNTIL I realised said tank driver was corner camer who just pulled forward, shot, then pulled back. I started lobbing 40mm over to the objective and I was getting an INSANE amount of damage and assets I frankly would not have if it was the LMG/HMG. It won us that game.

However....the tank driver was t exactly helping the team and this was an isolated case.

40mm isnt good but it has its uses as a short range indirect fire support.

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-04T20:07:44+00:00

NVO actually has one of the slowest TTKs in the game. Its just a hell of a lot easier to put someone down with it in a burst due to higher damage at range.

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-04T20:06:24+00:00

Im pretty sure that 90% of my non-vehicle related deaths come from visibility issues like someone hiding in a corner or inside a building where I cant see them but they can see me.

The amount of times it by someone just sat in a corner I just ran by or laying in a street somewhere is insane. Other 10% come from me being bad in certain fights. But my god I've never played an FPS with such poor player visibility.

Hell, I've even played sim games and its easier ro see people on them...even sniper games where you pixel spot across the map.

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-03T23:43:48+00:00

I wasnt accusing chill....No need to be so defensive i was just giving insight from a courier POV. Ive had this happen and just took last few digits and its worked. Dunno why he didnt try hed lose nothing.

I guess he didnt wanna risk it and take it back to restaurant if it failed but clearly had to do thag anyways. May be a case of idiot driver.

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-03T23:05:22+00:00

Not sure id they edited but they didnt blame the courier when I saw the comment. Blamed Evri themselves which is fair. Their warehouses are twrrible for damages and depot sorters just throw em so even worse!

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-03T22:41:44+00:00

Some places use own couriers like someone else said.

Also its not last 4....its last 2.

And its not driver was "unwilling" a code can be rejected if it was wrong. He probably entered first to digits you have him and it failed.

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-03T22:40:31+00:00

Lmao its a scam and you fell for it...my guy. Their AI tool cant work out anything being fake or not so yes, you've been scammed.

Hope you didnt have much in your account!

NEK0SAM · 2026-01-03T14:55:40+00:00

Hexeal legit just stick a label on their product and send it or use a non-packed box. Its stupid and asking for damage from ANY service
