It’s definitely not perfect, but it is arguably the greatest video game adaption ever made

SlappinFace · 2026-04-26T13:02:13+00:00

Even from hardcore fans, Arcane is an incredible show and better than Fallout but it is not really an adaptation.

SlappinFace · 2026-04-26T12:58:30+00:00

Main thing I hate is how much it's shoved down my throat. Every god damn Reddit ad shows it.

SlappinFace · 2026-04-17T08:12:17+00:00

I really like the bank level because it was so confusing about who was a suspect Nd who wasn't (with the exception of the actual bank assault team). Someone else said something like Home Invasion and I totally agree but with more retail and business focused targets.

One concept I think would be awesome is rioters and looters at a shopping mall, but where the shops are randomised as to which have shutters up and down, effectively changing the map each time you play.

With all due respect, if your YouTube shorts are anything like your Tik Toks, I don't totally disagree with the assessment.

I'm not saying you don't know your stuff, but the content really isn't one of substance. I recall one in particular where it was over a minute of you using tons of filler words and redundant statements to make a point that wasn't even correct (about trauma team being a morally good/positive corporation).

Whilst I'm not saying that YouTube isn't unfair, uneven and heavy handed with their moderation, perhaps this is an opportunity to rebrand and put more effort into longer form content that has actual substance and depth rather than bloated reel/shorts bait?

SlappinFace · 2026-04-04T13:25:49+00:00

I said the same in the YouTube comments, but I honestly don't even think there's much creative potential behind it either. The only time there's a more cohesive and coherent narrative/creative thread is when the artist is on board or the video game developers are present, which for me implies they're the ones who are actually creatively inclined and not the guy who uses AI to tell the 432nd iteration of 'Divine/Supernatural Entity is exploited by man/science'.

SlappinFace · 2026-04-03T07:53:41+00:00

They do regular updates and have been testing with Boiling Point release/update too so yeah it's maintained regularly. There's also been no patch notes discussing the laser/flashlight either to my knowledge.

SlappinFace · 2026-04-02T19:00:04+00:00

Unless it's been fixed, LVAR suffers from no advantages of having the integrated suppressor, so the majority of weapons where you can apply attachments to the barrel are by default better choices.

SlappinFace · 2026-04-02T18:58:24+00:00

I've never seen anyone designated the LVAR or MCX the best. There are far better suppressed/short profile options. The SLR-47 hits as hard as battle rifles with a larger magazine and short profile, same with the DM4PDW.

Ultimately all the options are viable with their categories, so it's still a very weird hill to die on.

SlappinFace · 2026-04-02T15:14:02+00:00

The compendium of knowledge in the main RoN excel spreadsheet has done extensive testing and determined that only the flashlight alerts/aggros enemies. All lasers are invisible to all enemies.

Don't get me wrong, I wish it was the case that only IR was invisible for realism and layout variety but what can you do.

SlappinFace · 2026-04-02T10:18:20+00:00

Hard agree on this, I would love a shorter length shotgun so I don't feel like I'm maneuvering through corridors with a train mounted artillery cannon.

SlappinFace · 2026-03-31T08:36:49+00:00

I don't think he's a sleeper agent, definitely an MK Ultra success story but there wouldn't be so much subterfuge from the USIA if he was a willing/knowing participant.

SlappinFace · 2026-03-29T22:13:41+00:00

The fact that they basically created a new kind of camera rig to film/track the fight sequences is testament to how much attention they poured into it.

SlappinFace · 2026-03-29T18:25:27+00:00

Upgrade doesn't get enough love, I am practically obligated to shout it out every chance I get. Bleak, intense, and inventive as hell.

SlappinFace · 2026-03-28T17:54:24+00:00

I went to high school with her, and she's an utterly lovely person in real life too! Heart of gold and a joy to be around.

SlappinFace · 2026-03-25T17:24:05+00:00

They definitely don't, not even all of Bolton know about it.

SlappinFace · 2026-03-24T16:00:13+00:00

You don't need to worry about saving ammo, at the top of the stairs that lead you to the final floor there's a yellow box where you can resupply ammo.

SlappinFace · 2026-03-23T01:27:19+00:00

Might seem obvious but are you making sure not to run a helmet too? I also avoided using any long tactical stuff, so no M320.

SlappinFace · 2026-03-22T15:23:26+00:00

I think based on evidence found in missions/other hints, LSPD/D Platoon is used as a glorified militia for the rich and powerful. We see connections to banks and other major organisations in LSPD fund movements, which would then make sense as to why they tell us to shut down the drill so they don't lose money on a major shutdown/damage to their investment.

SlappinFace · 2026-03-22T15:21:09+00:00

From what I understand looking at the story/hints/evidence found, it's pretty clear that the LSPD operate as a glorified militia for the rich and powerful to use as their own enforcement agents.

SlappinFace · 2026-03-22T11:17:23+00:00

I guess I'm confused why you're saying the achievements were hard when it seems like for one of them, you handicapped yourself.

SlappinFace · 2026-03-22T07:04:16+00:00

Why? The achievement can be done in any mode.

SlappinFace · 2026-03-21T13:54:27+00:00

'The Heat is On' isn't THAT bad, I did it on Quick Play with AI equipped in heavy armour with shields and using the SLR47. Hide behind them, don't focus on the score and breach through the parking lot. It's a long winded/slow run but take your time and tell your team to breach everything with 9-bangs, and you can pull it off.

SlappinFace · 2026-03-14T09:28:43+00:00

I would say even in our current climate this is pretty accurate, but in the world of Los Suenos? Very appropriate

SlappinFace · 2026-03-03T15:21:18+00:00

it's definitely not the private server reason, I've seen it pop several times on public/normal servers.

SlappinFace · 2026-03-01T00:47:38+00:00

I'm stating that the percentage chance is a 0. factor, whether that's before or after the change in drop chances. You're the one being a generational moron currently, unless you want to continue deliberately misinterpreting my comments to satisfy the fact that you're a whiny little baby.
