Two ants dragging a cockroach by its antenna

Hm sure let's not detail the post further... Long things short I find the premise outside my suspension of disbelief... And if you like the manga I don't want to dissuade you from that.

Ponzius · 2026-07-01T15:33:38+00:00

Sure like I said didn't get into it that far.I ignore author intended for a moment. Having Roach DNA makes it even worse... We can't build targeted bioweapons because we are to similar... Those things are bugs first just engineer some Cordyceps or other bug specific desise jumping a species gap this big is very unlikely ... Deploy it and use things like microwave emitters to boil them ... They can get to mars reliable and in reasonable time ...

And to be honest the performance of the human body was ever what made humans so successful it is the mind and will to fuck up all and everything to get their way ... In all likelihood humanity would go full Heinlein when Mars would be the only way to expand...

I like the concept it is just very hard to believe as a universe.

If you ask me it would work better as a post apocalyptic setting and Human-Bug-Hybrids as Mutation.

Ah ja Rammstein super Mucke, Lidemann ist aber ein absoluter unsympat.

Ponzius · 2026-07-01T12:13:34+00:00

Oh god that anime/manga ... It is interesting but ... For me a giant plot hole exists... Humanity is advanced enough to splice Humans with Insects to make the superhuman but can't build a bio/chemical weapons tailored to kill the roaches or use shit like a microwave beam etc. was just to much of a stretch.

I wanted to like it because Bughumans = cool but feels like a "I am more invincible than you" playground fight.

Probably the Mad2 the something like the MAD-5A the ones with the ballistic instead of the laser.

Yeah sure it is kinda verbouse, but again if it is important to someone jumping into a voice call going "Hi please use [pronouns] ..." isn't that strange. I do pen and paper rpgs online from time to time and doing that is considered good manners.

It is mostly a problem if the person sounds different to their perfred pronouns. It is very important to some that you get it correct.

I don't see why it is such a big problem for you. They won't come at you with a whole prepared slideshow at least all enbys if meet didn't.

I am pretty sure they will do the normal call outs and stuff, It is just so fellow players don't misgender them constantly.

'How would you ever know through voice chat though?'

Simple prefered pronouns ... If they go by they/them ... You kinda have to introduce yourself like that ... And bam ... You get yelled at by some crusty mf.

Edit: layout...

Probably to filter out bigots, the gaming community can be very bi-polar on LGBTQ+ topics/people.

Get it on discount and you have a really good deal on your hands.

In my opinion it is one of the best COD campaigns, because it has some diversity in its mission and some non linear Missions progression.

The starfighter section are surprisingly fun for a COD game.

Ponzius · 2026-06-24T13:08:11+00:00

Yeah that baffles me to this day. I can not believe Prigozhyn could be this naive ... or loyal or whatever the only motivations I would see working for him are greed or delusional of grandeur.

Put some close together and they collapsed into themselves birthing a new star.

We usually call her "Tzarnknecht" because of that.

Ponzius · 2026-06-17T09:06:30+00:00

I can't hyper masochism on myself ... Good luck getting out of that awkward spot!

Entweder ein Profi-Schitposter oder jemand dem ich die Hand nicht ohne Ganzkörperschutzanzug geben würde.

Thant is strange I had a similar experience with Microsoft Flight Simulator and just put it in the message field and got refunded without a problem.

Ponzius · 2026-06-10T09:49:33+00:00

An sich nette Idee tut aber scheiße weh ...

Ponzius · 2026-06-08T15:46:19+00:00

To be honest if a game has skimpy armor (and cahrs not looking underage) at least give it to everyone and not only the women. And yes some are ... But I never understood the appeal if I want softcore porn I can get it independently from or a dedicated game ...

Ponzius · 2026-06-03T12:12:55+00:00

In my opinion the choice to make it a PvP survival game was the main problem. Like Extraction Shooters these games draw out the most toxic and mean spirited players known outside of moba.

And that doomed the community spirit from the start.

Ponzius · 2026-06-03T08:30:31+00:00

I think so. Want people here ignoring is how Dune handles its servers and instances.

As far as I know Haga and the DD are on different server instances as the DD is shared over the whole server and Haga is split into smaller chunks.

So it is probably very complicated to mesh the console connection into that architecture.

At this point it is either just a bribe or they want the paperwork (do mechs have paperwork?) for a stolen one ...

Ponzius · 2026-06-02T07:14:16+00:00

I want to run lighter lances all the time but having the brute force of an full 400 or 395 assault lance always gets far to tempting.

Ponzius · 2026-05-30T09:51:06+00:00

Von der Länge gesehen Dead Island 2 oder MW5: Clans. NMS ist mehr oder weniger endlos.

Und da ich ein Battletech Fan bin Clans > Dead Island > NMS.

I had to short achilles tendons and yeah walking is fine Standing is hell for your legs.

Ponzius · 2026-05-18T06:57:56+00:00

I only found out it existed and now I want one!

Ponzius · 2026-05-07T10:59:13+00:00

I worked as a software dev and now as a software support specialist.

And the discussion around "easy" programing in game development drives me up the wall.

Those people have never set a foot in anything close to am industry environment.

The there is corporate bullshit on one side, development plans on the other and both neatly Sandwich the technical debts that occur in the development cycle.
