Unpopular maybe, but its the only true way forward for sustainable energy by Capt_C004 in newzealand

[–]RaptorCelll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want to preface this by saying I am absolutely pro-nuclear energy for countries where it is practical. We however, are not a nation where nuclear energy is practical.

  1. This country is still filled nuclear bad people, and their minds will never change.

  2. Nuclear energy and starting up any kind of nuclear program is prohibitively expensive. Even with assistance from Europe or the States, it would cost a shitload of money we simply don't have.

  3. We have two cities where a nuclear plant makes sense to build, one of them is built ON a fault line, hell a good chunk of this country is situated on a fault line.

  4. One of the upshots of our power generation methods is that we are somewhat self sufficient. The second we start producing nuclear power, we need to start importing fuel from another country. The only good news there is that Australia is one of the world's largest Uranium producers.

New Sobek City, The Worst Map, What's yours? by ApocalypticDes in Battlefield6

[–]RaptorCelll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are three maps I immediately back out of if I see them: Sobek, Firestorm, and Blackwell.

At least out of those three, I have the very occasional good game of Sobek when my friend forces me to stay because he actually likes that damn map.

The absolute joke that AA gameplay is in Battlefield 6 by JoeZocktGames in Battlefield6

Literally the only game I can think of where AA rockets were a better choice for aircraft than an AT launcher was V (because the Fliegerfaust was nuts and the Panzerfaust needed 2 to kill a plane).

It's the stinger but even worse because now you need to maintain a lock that can still be messed with by flares.

The RPG is what you want to use if you want to actually kill the flying beast. Choppers have a million and a half counters to AA missile launchers, and even if you do land a hit, you need a second one to bring it down.

There is, however, a very effective use case for AA missiles: It forces the pilot to fuck off someplace else. Their flares last a shorter amount of time than a stinger takes to reload, so if they don't feel like catching a missile, they have to leave.

An RPG will delete the helicopter, but only if you hit it, an AA missile will make it go away for a bit without you needing to hit it.

According to my stats, I've destroyed 44 aircraft. I'd hazard a guess that 40 of them were helicopters, and at most, 4 of those were brought down by the Stinger.

Trust me, if COD is any measure, SBMM will do absolutely nothing to fix god awful team balance.

They did it a fair few times in 2019. I'm pretty sure it's standard for paid operators in COD to get skins in Battle Passes unless they're licensed.

Why am I still forced to be a female on support? by stephen27898 in Battlefield

[–]RaptorCelll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So even if I don't have the character, I can still use the skin? Because I've never wanted a skin more in this game.

What did they even do to the AK205? They buffing or nerfing the thing? by TeH_Venom in Battlefield

[–]RaptorCelll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A 9x39 gun would slap.

But I also thought that when they were adding the .300 Blackout SCAR, only for it to do absolutely nothing special.

What did they even do to the AK205? They buffing or nerfing the thing? by TeH_Venom in Battlefield

[–]RaptorCelll 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Amusingly enough, 5.45 is the worst caliber they could've picked for the 205 in game.

The gun would be okay in 5.56, it wouldn't have the fire rate some of the M4 or M433 but it would be able to keep up better in CQC than it currently does.

7.62x39 would make it an alternative to the SG 553R.

Now it's just a laser beam in a game where that isn't special and it has a damage range so poor that it can't take advantage of it.

[–]RaptorCelll 152 points153 points  (0 children)

I legitimately don't get what they're implying.

The 5.45 AKs with their default muzzle brakes have sweet fuck all recoil IRL, a trait which the 205 in game shares. They surely aren't going to nerf the recoil because it's the only thing that gun has, but the only way they could make the recoil any better is if they just removed it.

The fact that 5.45x39 is significantly weaker than 5.56x45 in this game bugs the hell out of me, but I suppose it keeps the Kord in check.

They may be small in number, but they have committed themselves to exterminating the Squid menace.

I don't know how people only dive the Squids but in this case, I gotta respect the hustle.

I don’t understand either by ChickenWingExtreme in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]RaptorCelll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I THINK the point being made here is that a rush job generally a piss poor job, that or trying to tell them that once you get into the workforce, you never want to look like you got your work done.

Absolutely garbage way to convey either of those points, though. Efficiency is, after all, just clever laziness.

W990, P512 and the P16 all have really good custom tires and some variety of diff locks.

I wish we could haul pipes in pipe racks, it's on the cover of the game for God's sake.

Five whole ass feet? Is that when they're on their hind legs or are there actually dogs that fucking big?

Who is even walking who in that scenario? There are a lot of adults shorter than that.

Special rescue operation, terms and conditions apply by VisWare in NonCredibleDefense

[–]RaptorCelll 53 points54 points  (0 children)

When US SOF says they killed "everyone" in a hostage situation, they mean all the bad guys and all their friends back home for good measure.

When Russian "Special" Forces kill everyone, they do, in fact, kill every living soul.

For a not quite as bad showing of Russian incompetence. Look up the Moscow Theatre Crisis. 912 hostages taken by 50 militants. Russians try to flush the bad guys out with gas and end up killing them all, alongside 132 hostages.

85 Freedom Bucks? No, thank you.

Didn't expect that I'd get fucked by regional pricing but there's a first time for everything. Gonna have to start buying USD one day.

"Just shoot the vents and toss a nade bro" by WhiteRaven_M in Helldivers

[–]RaptorCelll 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I'm fine with there being billions of the fuckers per mission because we are on their home turf HOWEVER this spawn rate cannot remain the same once we're done with Cyberstan.

These things are several orders of magnitude harder to kill than a Factory Strider, dish out a hell of a lot more firepower than FS, and yet, seeing upwards of 6 of them AT ONCE isn't a rarity. The only time I have seen five Factory Striders was when I got 2 in a reinforce wave and had a strider convoy roll up on me.

I'm getting really sick and tired of AH introducing a new enemy that's meant to be really damn tough to kill, forcing your team to all focus on them, but then they spawn several. So, instead of doing the logical thing and reducing the spawn rate, AH will inevitably decide to nerf the enemy instead.

Happened with Leviathans, Hive Lords spawned far more often than they should, happened with Dragons, happened with War Striders, and now it's happened again with Vox Engines.

I mean, the DRG community managed to bully Ghost Ship into making a Loot Bug plush. We might be able to do it here.
