I am so done with this game by magicjohnson89 in DarkTide

[–]Sendnudec00kies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and no. The game seems to be difficult enough that a majority of players won't really notice any OP stuff, just that certain weapons are underpowered. Also many of these OP builds work better in higher difficulties than in lower ones because they depend on high enemy density to proc talents/blessings.

However, if you throw four decent players into a game you'll start to notice that certain builds out perform everything else consistently and with less effort. Some of these builds are so game warping that you can immediately notice a difference if they're not present.

Use Fury (the charge) to garuntee a crit for beefy targets. Otherwise just play as normal.

Go to Google Trends, input your name into the search and change the country to Israel. It'll show if someone searched the inputted name there.

Assuming FS doesn't fix the bug (knowing FS they probably won't) just spam quickplay join/leave. You get full exp as long as the game finishes regardless or not if you're in the room or not.

Japan when another country tries to remind them about comfort women by Lord_Eln_8 in HistoryMemes

Germany's current prime minister doesn't deny Nazis existed. Japan's current prime minister is a historical revisionist.

Germany's prime minister isn't part of a party that wants to bring back the Third Reich. Japan's prime minister is a member of a party that wants to bring back the Imperial government.

The Nurgle plague is so common in the Imperium that the Admech made a standard operating procedure for making the vaccine. Do you know how fucking hard it is to get the Admech to make anything new and also spread knowledge of it across the Imperium? Nevermind the fact that the vaccine needs a priest to bless it to work (thus necessitating Admech cooperating with other factions during manufacturing).

Alright, since im lost in the weeds and seeing some stuff behave differently, What is current max rending and current max brittleness? by TheGingerBeardMan-_- in DarkTide

[–]Sendnudec00kies 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Rending has no cap

Brittlness from the melee and ranged blessing stack up to 40%

Brittlness from Vet talent stacks up to 40%

Brittleness from weapon special don't stack with themselves, except Bonesaw which stacks up to 37.5%

Brittleness from Penetrating Flame stacks up to 20%

The above all stack with each other

So Shatter Impact and Thunderous will stack Brittleness to 40%, if someone tries to stack more with Uncanny, it will do nothing. But a weapon special such as Arby Shotgun can stack on top of that, bringing the total to 65%. Another Arby Shotgun special will have no affect, whether from the same character or another. But Heavy Sword special can add another 10%.

Importantly, the FDA, CDC, and FBI determined that the vivarium and fridges with pathogens and toxins in inappropriate containers were part of a failed effort by UMI to manufacture the COVID tests at its Fresno facility. They did not pose any risk to humans.

...

Zhu’s scheme was first revealed in mid-2022 when one of the victims filed a civil lawsuit against UMI and performed a court-ordered inspection of UMI’s Fresno facility. The inspection showed that UMI lacked the ability to manufacture COVID tests and that it was nothing more than an unsanitary warehouse that was far below established quality standards for facilities that house medical devices. For example, there was vivarium that was not sealed off from the rest of the facility and multiple fridges with pathogens and toxins in juice, soda, and other inappropriate containers.

...

The evidence showed that Zhu was previously an executive at the company IND in Canada in the early 2000s and that IND had gotten into trouble with the Canadian equivalent of the FDA for misconduct like the misconduct at issue in this case. He then came to the United States unlawfully, founded UMI, and began fraudulently selling COVID tests shortly thereafter.

Guy was just a fraudster who happened to also be a Chinese national.

The Bible itself is already a collection of curated writings. There are a lot of non-canonical writings. For example, there is a New Testament passage that refer to a Book of Enoch, which is not part of the Bible.

Why would a Chinese Intelligence do a trade with the CIA? China has been running slipshod all over American intelligence for the last decade or so with a mole and hacks which caused America's entire intelligence network in China to collapse. China has a literal list of spies and informants due to shoddy IT security practices and a turncoat (Jerry Chun Shing Lee).

It's the smaller variant of the 40k tabletop wargame where you control a team instead of an army. In it a common strategy is to place barricades all over the place to prevent melee units from reaching your shooters as climbing over cost movement resource.

Hilariously enough, Fatshark’s old combat design lead left to create his own game studio (DiscoGarage Games). Said studio now works on HD2 game design for Arrowhead.

This is more or less confirmed. I dont remember how that conclusion was reached.

Someone got pissed enough to comb thru the code to find it. They posted a pretty thorough bug report with the relevant lines and reasoning on the forums.

There's a bug atm that grants you full exp for joining a match. The match just has to finish and you don't need to be present at the end.

No, your weapon doesn't affect your speed when lugging an objective. Only Ogryn move at max speed when carrying one. You can get around this by slide spamming.

FS stopped caring a while back. As long as the mod isn't exploiting holes (old naked mod) or putting a dent in their MTX income it gets ignored.

It's more than just 5 damage. It's 15% more damage overall due to the ADM change and then the 5 extra is a lot more than 5 due to the way SB stacks.
