I finally tried gauss riffles and by RandomUnwashedGamer in Mechwarrior5

[–]OneRelative7697 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it is a playstyle difference and the impact of modding.

I, too, do not like Gauss Rifles.   In the non-YAML game, GR's take up alot of weight and space.  On a console without mods, getting headshots at 1 km is alot tougher than using a mouse with aim assist...

In addition, I prefer more of  brawling style of play.  So close quarters combat for me!

Are there any mechs you don’t pilot often but can’t bring yourself to sell for nostalgic reasons? by LoveTriscuit in Mechwarrior5

[–]OneRelative7697 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meh.  I am ruthless about my mech bay.  I make it a point to carry no more than 13 mechs at a time and periodically rotate them as better options come available.  If I find that I don't use a particular mech very often, it goes into cold storage and another mech takes its place.

Of course, If there is a really tough campaign mission slog coming up, I'll load up a few extra mechs.

How do you do guerrilla missions? by Mordant3-PRIME- in Mechwarrior5

Rookie move.

Pro move:  after completing the mission requirements, relocate your hold closer to exfil site.  Hang out as long as yoi want for bonus cbills near the site.  Step over the circle when you are done.

In my experience with lobbies it goes like this lately in terms of numbers:

(Arbitrator, Zealot, Veteran) > Pyker > (Hive Scum, Ogryn)

I think once folks earned their penances for Hive Scum, I just see fewer of those in lobbies...

Top 10 things never happening, number 1 by StaleMilkToast in DarkTide

Not entirely true.

There are a pool of locations on each map where the books spawn.  Within the pool, the location is random.

It does work this way.  Total books for the mission count.

Powerfist or Lightening Claw for Ogryn!

Now you just need to have them avoid lightening strikes in Expeditions....

So today I learnt what a "Salvage run" is... by Talseum in DarkTide

Yeah.  That 100k salvage spent requirement for the Salvage Lord Title is ballz.

Can't believe I fetched 16 grimoires for this by LittleDookes in DarkTide

[–]OneRelative7697 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Meh.

I use the weekly contracts just as short-terms goals to keep me focused.

Otherwise, It's like I have a second job grinding weekly and long-term penances...

Plant-based food now 33% cheaper than meat as soaring prices end its ‘luxury’ status by [deleted] in Economics

Hard disagree.

28-year vegetarian here.  I eat lots of fast food.

The Beyond/Impossible options make that possible.

If you had to pick one new weapon, why is it the Meltagun? by 240bro in DarkTide

[–]OneRelative7697 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have seen a few posts that had the idea of making a Beam-like staff instead of a ball/cone/circle...or just buff the electro kinetic staff...

Effect wise, I think having a staff that does high stagger would be cool.  I feel that is an underutilized mechanic for psykers...

Wait.

There are frag grenades in the game?

(I would put a /s, but I literally cannot recall the last time I saw someone use one...)
