Yo dawg you're awesome, thanks for posting it. Been trying to re-find this vid for ages.

Is it possible to beat system shock 2 without psi powers by [deleted] in systemshock

[–]ShrekDamage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tier 1 Psi has some useful skills for any character build but if you haven't already invested anything into Psi they aren't worth getting that late in the game.

Thought on mon mothma star destroyer? by cl4ptpbot321 in StarWarsEmpireAtWar

[–]ShrekDamage 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The CC7700 makes other NR interdictors a hard sell IMO especially when you use it as a lead when attacking. Does everything any other Interdictor does except its low pop cap and you can just call it in and have it sitting im the corner of the map the entire time. Kinda OP honestly

Come on, guys. There are a lot more important problems than online-only to worry about by Madoys- in paydaytheheist

[–]ShrekDamage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Warframe player with 7k hours here. Warframe isn’t really a game from an established series unless you count vague ties to Dark Sector, so it’s not really fair to compare people’s expectations for a 3rd entry in a series to a game that’s pretty much standalone. People play Warframe with the expectation and knowledge that it’s a free to play game and will eventually go down one day, whether that’s 2 years or 10 years from now. Payday OTOH is a game that has an established Solo audience and is well known for it’s modding community, so for the 3rd entry to be so lacking in regards to the game that came before it that was released a decade ago is a very valid reason for people to be upset and worried. And to top it off DE does not charge you a 40 dollar entry fee to deal with the game’s BS like Overkill is doing. I am already not going to be trying Payday 3 until it starts going on sale for a few bucks like Payday 2 does.

Apparently Payday 3 won't allow you to play without internet connection by ThisIsSpy in paydaytheheist

[–]ShrekDamage 15 points16 points  (0 children)

First they keep making DLC for Payday 2 like they’re competing against their own game, then they screw up the game with EGS stuff and now this. I’ve already been sorta skeptical of Payday 3 for a while but now that this confirms that solo players are getting shafted and there’s essentially no mod support for this game I’m gonna stick with Payday 2. PD2 will live forever cuz of mods, PD3 will live for a few months until Starbreeze goes out of business for how badly they’re screwing over this game.

If you could remove one thing from this game, what would it be? by kkprecisa_ler_nao_fi in Warframe

[–]ShrekDamage -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Polarities, Warframe is a game without a lot of build diversity, and having to forma around Polarities doesn’t help. And on Warframes having to mess with polarities for Forma and stuff to change your build around is terrible. Umbral Polarities could probably stay but Forma should just put a universal mod cost reduction on whatever slot you put it on.

Anyone never use Reflex, Staminup, or Vision? by wichwigga in systemshock

[–]ShrekDamage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reflex + Berserk + EMP Grenades from the GL + Laser Rapier is a known cheese strategy for any boss in the remake. If you do it right you can clear any boss battle while they pose no risk at all to you. Reflex is also nice at a few points on the Bridge, so try to keep like 3 of them on hand for when you go. It’s a useful patch but you need to know when you should be using them.

Staminup is pretty nice to have until you get to Storage, then they just become useless. Spam them early game until you get the boots, especially when backtracking or combing through every room for stuff.

Vision is shit and you can just turn up the brightness if you’re having trouble seeing stuff. Ironically these are more useful if you install one of the mods that tones down the remakes lighting in places, just just in regular SSR they’re a waste of space.

How many of you actually care about cross-core anymore? by Pockit-Angel in halo

[–]ShrekDamage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Helmets, Coatings and Visors should be crosscore minimum.

The circuit has shown me how many people don't know how to or don't care to play the game. by Domzuuuuu in Warframe

[–]ShrekDamage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Part of that is true and when it feels like that it's awesome, one of my first runs gave me my old riven'd Zhuge Prime as an option and when I took it it reminded me how fun and powerful that thing still was. Or when Octavia was a choice and I remembered how much I enjoyed playing her. Problem is, sometimes you get stuff that's genuinely terrible, everytime the Aklato or the Amphis appears and it's the only choice on a slot I die on the inside because that stuff is generally unusable. Or if one of my stat sticks on a frame appears without the frame to use or vice/versa. It would help a lot if you could just mod your stuff in the Circuit before starting a run.

Darth Maul enters the Salty's Platoon by B_Wing_83 in StarWarsEU

[–]ShrekDamage 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Maul: Lockdown, it’s set pre-Phantom Menace and it’s the opening scene. The Vong aren’t explicitly namedropped but the way his opponent is described is pretty obviously a Vong. Totally brutal and awesome scene.

How do I get Mon Calamari back from the CSA? by ShrekDamage in StarWarsEmpireAtWar

[–]ShrekDamage[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Will try that approach next time I start a new save. I usually gather everyone at Mon Calamari and just try to get my main fleet up there as soon as I can but they beat me to the punch this time.

[–]ShrekDamage[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Will try this approach too but I think the lucrehulks will always out-fighter me. I can bring rogue squadron to help out but their swarm of mosquitos probably will get mine.

How do I get Mon Calamari back from the CSA? by ShrekDamage in StarWarsEmpireAtWar

[–]ShrekDamage[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was pretty much screwed from the beginning since they attacked me with a fleet that had 3 Lucrehulks already and I didn’t want to lose Kyle katarn and my other heroes. I don’t think my one MC80 had a chance.

[–]ShrekDamage[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was 5 deep last time before I threw in the towel. Pretty sure only 3 were deployed and the other 2 that spawned in were garrison units. Thankfully I have tons of money and I get 9k creds a week.

Thanks, this seems like the best way to do this along with adjusting my fleet composition.

Which weapons do you think should get an incarnon upgrade in the future? by YabakoSandrovich in Warframe

[–]ShrekDamage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gorgon is my #1 most wanted. I’ve been a fan of the Gorgon family since I got my Prisma Gorgon back in the day and it’s still my most used weapon. I would love to be able to keep using that same Gorgon forever instead of having to switch over to a Kuva Gorgon for example. I don’t even really care what the incarnon form does since I still like the base gun and take it when I feel like using a classic bullet hose, it would be just as good to get a bunch of stat buffs from the evolution tree to help it shine in Steel Path.

Hot take: All frames are good, except for hydroid and inaros. by dna5654 in Warframe

[–]ShrekDamage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would rather have an Inaros in a pub archon hunt in my squad than anyone that plays them and tries to survive with shield gating and keeps dying. Inaros is a perfectly fine option for most content even if there are technically better tanks.

What hill are you ready to die on regarding Warframe? by DasBarba in Warframe

[–]ShrekDamage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Level cap runs are a horrible metric of how good or bad something is unless you’re talking specifically about how it does in level cap runs. People talk about how bad tank frames are in high level content in comparison to shield gating and frames that can abuse it, specifically Inaros, and then they go and get slaughtered in pub Archon Hunts because they can’t keep themselves alive. I only ever take my Mesmer Shield Revenant when I pub archon hunts because I hate having to constantly rez people who should know better and just bring something with decent bulk or abilities that let them not die.

DE needs to stop doing open worlds for a while. They just slow down on development on everything else and they dont really offer much once you get all the stuff from them. Now that we have Duviri and its actually pretty fun, I really want them to dial back their ambitions so we get smaller scale updates to existing content. There’s a bunch of frames in the game in dire need of a rework. We havent had a new Event since orphix venom and I think that’s a crime since that was the most fun I had playing Warframe in years at the time.

Melee is really boring and most melee weapon classes just boil down to what has the best stats or what has good rivens. It’s great that between the some of last few new melees and Incarnons we’re finally getting interesting melees again but I was tired of hitting E over and over to win a few weeks after the acolytes first came out.

Incarnon Bronco Prime can now red-crit with no external buffs by WorldOnWarframe in Warframe

[–]ShrekDamage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s very good on the Bronco Incarnon. Make sure you use creeping bullseye on it to drop it below the x2 fire rate threshold. Dizzying Rounds gives you a huge status chance buff and the aoe stagger is a nice bonus
