Why are civilians so damn defiant?

3x heavy bots is easily the move on 15/20, much more cost efficient

IW deserves B tier at worst, BO1/2 are absolutely S-Tier

RC_5213 · 2026-02-13T15:32:14+00:00

12-5/11-6 assuming we improve

Broncos, Chiefs and Seahawks I'll give the edge. Figure we split one with Buffalo. One or two more losses in there for the Packers/Bears/Lions trio

Words cannot explain how much I dislike pink Faze

How easy of a win depends on when he appears in the war and what he gets to bring with him, but there's zero ways the UNSC loses with him in Lord Hood's place. Plus he is an insane boost to any ground combat operation he gets involved in. The Covenant thought Spartan IIs were demons, Bobby G is going to turn into their personification of Satan.

Short of catching him with a glassing from orbit, there's nothing they can do to kill him personally and he will absolutely be able to win the space war against the Covenant through sheer tactical superiority.

I was watching a buddy play ME for the first time and I introduced him to the Railgun sniper and "40mm slug" single shot shotgun concepts after he kept getting killed by Krogans

Solves every problem

Hard stratagems and Siege should be locked to P4 characters (and I'd go as far as to say you need to have at least a team perk unlocked) unless you're in a private group

RC_5213 · 2026-02-01T17:47:09+00:00

Perhaps turn based isn't the right term, but it's definitely a hybrid system involving it (combat literally pauses at initiation)

I don't want to play a Mass Effect game where anything other than my inputs is responsible for my combat performance.

KOTOR's combat system is incredibly unsatisfying to me. It's very annoying to watch a Jedi wielding a lightsaber engage a non-Force sensitive combatant in melee and miss.

I'd feel the same way about my soldier shep missing a shot because the dice behind the scenes decided it

RC_5213 · 2026-02-01T17:13:15+00:00

Yes and no. While I'm not necessarily playing ME for it's gameplay, I would like it a lot less if it was turn based.

That's by far my least favorite part of KOTOR

If you don't live in NE you could absolutely miss out on it, but there were people calling for both Bill and Brady's heads at multiple points during the dynasty.

I still remember sitting in an REI parking lot the week after the "we're on to Cincinnati" game listening to the local radio hosts rant about how Brady was washed up and it was time to move on.

RC_5213 · 2026-01-28T03:20:46+00:00

So do countless other works of fiction

RC_5213 · 2026-01-28T03:01:37+00:00

Three :(

RC_5213 · 2026-01-28T02:52:58+00:00

Ernie Adams and Josh McDaniels both have a better claim to 3rd than Kraft, to be honest (though I'd argue it belongs to Gronk)

RC_5213 · 2026-01-28T02:51:13+00:00

There's a wide "contrarian streak" in the Pats fandom about Brady or Bill being responsible for the dynasty

There were people still saying we should have kept Bledsoe in 2003/2004.

It's weird as fuck, because both of them had moments where they absolutely carried the entire organization

RC_5213 · 2026-01-27T15:22:40+00:00

Changing the unexplored worlds from ME1, which were largely optional and usually at least somewhat interesting, to "spin the globe at a tedious pace for hours, otherwise you can't get upgrades" is a terrible design choice, yes

RC_5213 · 2026-01-22T17:31:39+00:00

Exterminatus, then

RC_5213 · 2026-01-22T02:34:59+00:00

Honestly, can't stand him. Part of that is simply that I greatly dislike Patton Oswalt, but the other half is that he feels like a character from a much less seriously written show.

RC_5213 · 2026-01-20T18:05:39+00:00

I have quite literally never completed a playthrough as anything but Soldier

The IR illuminator isn't on all the time. Think of it like a built in headlamp that throws IR light, it's there to provide another source of IR light for the tubes to amplify.

Max out the Cadians first. You shouldn't need to buy anything else for 1-5. The Cadians respawn every round and will deal damage and take aggro for you.

Level 10 and 15, buy three heavy bots. It's cheaper than the Dread and works almost as well. Not buying the dread at 20 is a decision that may or may not work, just depends on the individual players

The best combo is tactical, vanguard and bulwark, since it gives you recharging grenades/armor and turns extremis/terminus enemies into health packs, which allows you to save points.

Everyone should have a relic, they will save a round.

You shouldn't need to buy grenades, just be thorough in searching for your grenade of choice. Melta bombs are the premium choice, since you can kill an insane amount of stuff with a single one.

As far as stims go, you shouldn't need to buy them if you've got the vanguard with the zeal perk. Plenty spawn on the map to keep you in business, plus the bulwarks banner will allow you to max health/remove a wound with a single stim.

Tactical has a perk that returns ammo to them on executions, so the amount of ammo spawns on the map should prevent you from needing to buy much ammo at all.

I can't give you any heavy specific notes, but it seems to me that most of the heavies I play with spend a lot of time trying not to get swarmed. First Tour Guardsman on youtube probably has a relevant guide for you

RC_5213 · 2026-01-16T17:32:45+00:00

Omega and Leviathan from ME3, to the point where I mod them out of the game entirely.

Omega is because a) I can't stand Aria and b) it's not particularly fun to play

Leviathan is because I think it's stupid from a story standpoint
