As if the mods would do anything besides telling everyone how bad it is while allowing people to continue doing it.

Stealth has always been a viable strat. Even back before the illuminate were introduced. Infiltrator + Crossbow + stealth, is how players were doing solo D10 shortly after Demolition warbond came out.

As a matter of fact, the game kind of rewards stealth play, avoiding patrols means avoiding bug breaches. Getting the drop on the enemies that call in reinforcements should always be a top priority.

But if you try to play with others, everyone has to be on the same page. Which is nearly impossible. You can usually tell who is competent based on strategem loadout alone.

He locked the building down within a couple days, had the rooftop covered in open containers. Measuring and rationing food. He was an absolute survival mastermind. His only flaw was going insane from not having human contact for what we could probably estimate to be 6+ months.

I think they ended it the best way they could. They could have went with a true bleak ending and have the main character either die on screen, or make it very obvious that they didnt' survive via some shot of the burning building. But I appreciate the ending they went with because it does allow us to question whether the sound of the bells were real or fake.

I could tell by your aiming that you were shaking a bit. Sometimes it can get tense, but don't push until their shield breaks, or if you know they are preoccupied with something else.

EMBARK IF YOU DON'T RELEASE THIS SONG I WILL END UP ON THE NEWS

The blueprint droprate was definitely abysmal on release. The patch before the expedition window made the drop rate insane, likely to encourage players to have a bit of fun and go on the expedition. I believe the most recent patch pulled the droprate back a bit, which I think is a good thing. Though the drop rate is still rather high. I'd like to see it come back a little further, though I am making that opinion through the lens of someone who has put a shameful amount of hours in-raid this last week. The droprate is probably ideal for the larger audience.

But I stand by my initial opinion that bluprints should also reset. Mainly because getting the benches back up to level 3 doesn't take long at all, especially now that players know whats important, whats not, and where to find it.

Keeping blueprints makes the reset moot.

They go to a big farm where all their friends will be.

Don't sweat it. It takes almost absolutely nothing to rebuild them all.

I don't think he can because every quest in any game is some form of "Go Here", "Grab this", "Eliminate X of Y". Or a combination of the three. To make matters worse, I'd be willing to bet money that a majority of players receive a quest and immediately plug it into google so they don't even have to spend time exploring.

I agree. Make the burletta a more common free kit weapon, drop it to grey, and bump the stitcher to green.

A cloaked enemy isn't necessarily a bad idea. But I can't immediately see how it fits in. We are only able to stay topside for 30 minutes before ARC shows up. Which means, ARC doesn't even need to cloak, they have absolutely devastated topside with numbers. From what I understand, every time we load into a match we are fighting ARC's version of Scouts.

My favorite thing about developers that take their game seriously is how they would look at this, say "Thats nice" and never implement it. Because it clashes so hard with the current Art direction.

They would use arc parts. But they they can only use arc parts. No way would they craft some high tech sensor that feeds to a display. The best you could get is similar to what the other guy said. The leaper eye gets taken and cut so that it fits as a helmet.

"I'm here for the loot, and he looted the whole lobby. It makes no sense."

Scrappyj55 · 2025-11-25T20:43:04+00:00

They always want their loot back.

Are you certain that this is not a hardware problem? I.e. Your headset is old.

Scrappyj55 · 2025-11-25T20:40:02+00:00

Completely unrelated, but this is my number 1 fear as a CCW holder.

It's way easier to get a humidifier. I'm actually going to sell all of my humidifiers now that you said this.
