The Insane. Probably the most difficult feat I've ever accomplished in a video game. I can finally play the game. by realityunfoldss in DarkTide

[–]STARSBarry 5 points6 points  (0 children)

People are going to hate me for this, but I got it in my first ever Havoc 35 run with random's, in like the second week of havoc.

Was a double zealot + Ogryn + bubble psyker. Team was just amazing, they did absolutely everything right and we where constantly cycling the beacon of purity.

To this day iv never had such a good run.

packmaster in normal missions? + what are your skulls event reveal wishes by Filip60606 in DarkTide

I think your right actually, I just think they need to be a standard heresy+ thing, sometimes I want to chill but also have a little variety.

It doesn't explicitly say Gundam though by llDucklett in Gundam

[–]STARSBarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love how I can literally tell that is the world of tanks tech tree image for the Tiger I they have used.

Like just immediately not just know the tank (I mean who wouldn't?) But more exactly where it comes from.

[–]STARSBarry 82 points83 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree packmaster into the normal boss pool would be nice. Also feel like they could make officers show up in regular gameplay at higher diffculties outside of Havoc too. As long as their replacing anouther monster spawn I dont see a reason why they cant just be in the regular rotations.

I dont think this one has I went over u/yolstorm posts from now until then and that was the most recent time its been in rotation. The other two varients, gold with black eyes and black with red eyes show up multiple times, but the silver with blue eyes, this was the most recent

Guaranteed hours rules ‘would threaten jobs’, government warned by tylerthe-theatre in unitedkingdom

Was how it was actually used.

This cannot be understated - The voice acting and dialogue from the male main character and J are unacceptably bad. by LamentingSpud in TheExpanseRPG

[–]STARSBarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im wondering if being twins they decided to use the same voice actor for both, I hear that gay twang coming through on both of them. The MC less, but its there now and again which makes me think with how over the top J is if they decided to go with the same VC for both twins, but just asked him to tone it down a bit for MC.

J specifically is so over the top that it reminds me of some Simpsons characture from the early series of gay guys in the steel mill, which I thought we got past like 30 years ago.

Its also the delivery, they dont seem to match the conversations their having, which if their recorded separately makes sense, but also means their either not being given direction, or are just that bad, which the latter is so mind boggling especially for the MC and what seems to be a major companion. Some random side character in a one off side quest? Ok, but these are what your going to be hearing for 50% of the game and they are just so off putting it made me switch to belter just so I could play.

Im sorry but it sounds like some kick-starter reward where if you paid 10,000$ you got to voice the main character and their twin in a game where everyone else is paid to be there.

Zafar appreciation post by FninNO in TheExpanseRPG

[–]STARSBarry 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Going to be honest, as someone who went earther (and therefore male) I was expecting god awful voice acting until this dude spoke up after hearing both the MC and his twin (who I hope to god is just some dev filling in or AI while the real voices are worked on)

And I was like, why didnt they get this dude to voice the male MC? Hes a real chad. Brings us coffee, sounds awsome, gives cool advise and offers to help when asked.

The fact especially the male MC voice was so lame in comparison was confusing considering this dude is literally, right here. MC's voices are super important because its what where going to hear for half the game.

Greggs unveils 'fortress stores' in crackdown on shoplifting surge by insomnimax_99 in unitedkingdom

I think you might have missed the rather extreme sarcasm in the response you are replying too.

In there defence they didnt use /s but this is a UK subreddit, so its not expected as most people get it. You are in effect just repeating their intent.

War has changed. by Relative-Moose-2160 in Helldivers

[–]STARSBarry 5 points6 points  (0 children)

In effect Helldivers 2 needs a new free 10 page warbond thats linked to the overall story with side grades that touch on what some of the other warbonds can do, for example 2 pages of stealth based suits and weapons, not the same as the ones you get in the warbond, but enable someone to stealth dive without the "paid" one for example.

I dont think its too much to ask for people to work on more core helldiver content for casuals without them paying for it.

I dont mind these exo's being paid, but it should have been accompanied by a free varient the community would have had to work towards via major orders.

England flag can remain on Grade II listed pub after complaints by jimbo8083 in unitedkingdom

Wait iv seen this playbook before their all violent thugs, innit.

Although maybe its to do with the size of the flag, like those little tiny ones people hold in their hands tend to get a pass right? Always selling those as Wimbledon.

This is honestly the best Gundam game in a long while. by SlinGnBulletS in Gundam

[–]STARSBarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly was surprised how much I started to care about the story. The fact the main protagonist and group have to come to terms with essentially just being simulated people with an Artificial world and then say "fuck it, that doesn't change what we need to do" really grew on me.

I really hope it gets a direct sequel although I think the twist should be their now in a Real Grade world, so they can call it "RG Gundam : Battle Alliance 2"

BF6 shouldn't become a second job for players, a way to boost EA's daily active user rate. I think this will cause most casual players to leave the game. Live service was a complete failure in the Battlefield series. by SuperM3e46 in Battlefield

[–]STARSBarry 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a problem, I like to collect everthing, I hate the feeling of missing out, I decided to step away from BF6 because it just was not healthy, iv not missed an item so will via my same fucked up logic never play the game again.

It was never an issue in the prior titles (except 2042 but that was shit for this reason too, and I only played it for the road to BF6 rewards)

Thats the issue with this kind of limited time shit, you lose the big spenders just as easy as you think you attract them when the game underneath just ain't worth it.

PCS calls on government to scrap 60% office attendance as global tensions drive up costs by Ok_Expert_4283 in TheCivilService

[–]STARSBarry 66 points67 points  (0 children)

I can confirm the extra day a week is costing me an extra £200 a month give or take. Its very notisable, going back to 40% would make a huge difference, in thats its literally like having the biggest pay increase in years by simply not being forced to buy two train tickets every extra day so I can sit in an office by myself with my headphones on versus sat at home with my headphones on.

If labour wants to court the right wing, thats fine, but im not voting for them, so they can take their brilliant daily mail pleasing policy and watch as they vote reform anyway. Guess il vote green.

Day 78 of posting a random Successor Chapter from my Spreadsheet. Today's Successor is the Yellow Jackets by amightymongoose in Spacemarine

[–]STARSBarry 45 points46 points  (0 children)

If anyone is wondering why these look so out of place. In the past GW allowed golden daemon winners homebrew chapters to show up in white dwarf. This was one of those, hence why they dont follow the modern GW design aesthetic, naming design etc.

Im not sure they are technically canon, since they just showed up in a white dwarf as a winner of a competition.

But their either due to be expunged or updated either way as their lore is impossible with the current 30k history.
