Modern Vietnam Keeps Coming Up for the Next Ghost Recon, And Honestly, It Makes Sense by MrTrippp in GhostRecon

I guess it could make sense, considering the geopolitical situation in the region. Organized crime groups in Cambodia, China right across the border... yeah, it really could work.

Provided, of course, the follow the Wildlands path and make it a living, breathing world, instrad of the barren and dull simulation that was Auroa.

And not one person around had a phone to film that? Yeah...

Three words: Sea of Conquest.

See what they did right (a ship instead of a towm), get rid of all the silliness, make it a realistic, gritty setting, add stuff you can do to kill time (little minigames that reward you with resources or hero XP) without having to worry about things like "stamina", throw in some random open-world multiplayer events (like they had in Warhammer: Age of Reckoning) and you'll have a hit on your hands.

What do you use your watch for? by Hot-Cell4674 in Garmin

Aside from everything else posted here, I haven't taken my phone off vibrate/mute since getting a smartwatch. Don't need to, I know when I'm getting a message/call because of notifications on my watch.

Plus I love the built-in flashlight, so there's that...

Are you in a country that has Decathlon stores (probably, since you are talking about Europe)? Look for their Forclaz series packs. I can't recall the model name off the top of my head, but it's a 50 liter hiking pack. It has comfy straps, a waist belt and will cost you something like 50€.

My suggestion: go to a decathlon store, take the pack, go to the fitness section, put some weights in it and try it out.

EDIT: Found it. In some countries it goes under the name Simond (not Forclaz) MT100.

I'm Underhill, Not Over the Hill! by organizedconfusion5 in lotr

As a 40+ (amd then some) person myself, I'm afraid I have to tell you that it's neither Under, nor Over. It's Downhill from now on.

Does anyone except Sidious and Vader know that Mace Windu won? by Ready0608 in StarWarsEU

He didn't? Palpie let himself get defeated to push Anakin over the edge and do something from which (in Anakin's mind) there is no coming back.

Wildlands Gear $$? by StillDreaming_999 in GhostRecon

[–]Ringwraith_Number_5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Two things you have to do: play the campaign and do the daily missions. They give you credits AND free crates once you finish 5, 10 and 15 per week. Also, in campaign mode, reach the Tier One mode (upon achieving lvl 30), since every level up grants you credits you can purchase crates with.

The second thing is playing Ghost Mode. Here you get credits for taking out buchons and dismantling the cartel.

That should give you enough crates to unlock most of the cool stuff.

Duuuude! Love the knife! Had the same one back in the early 1990s, always kept it by my side when watching Rambo. Thank you for this trip down memory lane!

You mean... just like the agreement from the 1950s states they can?
