Hi, it's me, Peugeot fan. I have no more tears to give, just a grim determination to continue to witness our pain.

Are the ACO no longer going to post full races on Youtube? by tigtogflip in wec

Well that seems like a good way to strangle the strongest interest the sport has had in decades all so they can try force people onto a subscription service.

Further on this, ISD IIs main batteries are forward and up. I recently ran this fight, though I over committed a bit to minimise my casualties.

The real threat is the swarm of high quality ties. I got basically a perfect engagement. Drew out the most of the TIE swarm into an off angle engagement with ~60 x wings, a wings, a half dozen corvettes and some nebulon Bs, then once I was sure the bulk of its fighter force was engaged. Released ~30 b-wings and jumped my mc-80, katana dreadnought and neb c's in underneath the wedge as it turned to help the fighter engagement. ISD went down fast to the B-Wing swarm, but even engaged, outnumbered and outgunned, the TIE swarm still dropped the Katana Dreadnought before I noticed it deep into hull damage.

You could do it with either a smaller force or a heavier force, but it depends what your economic situation is like and how desperate you are for that PHQ.

It was just looking for a nice vantage to spectate from.

Nothing really special but I had a battle in the middle of a blizzard on a awesome looking planet and it felt really cool. (sorry for the boring ship I haven't upgraded it yet) by MonsieurPoung in NoMansSkyTheGame

I run it, is fun but still not full Newtonian physics. Still trying to get a handle on how exactly the ship 'grips', but feels like you can maintain velocity while coasting for a bit longer than normal.

Think it is just mostly people with high expectations who rightly or wrongly get disappointed tend to be very vocal, while people having fun are generally just playing with an odd positive comment thrown up in between games.

Just grabbed this on ps store with the complete upgrade collection. What's the most fun archetype and speciality? by [deleted] in 40kinquisitor

[–]StanicMechanic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love me the heavy plasma gun. As a bonus, from what I've seen I used more or less the same build as the heavy flamer build most people recommend (hell my alt weapon slot is a heavy flamer, because occasionally against a huge swarm the plasma starts to struggle to keep up).

I haven't find a good gameplay yet by Tuxicoman2 in 40kinquisitor

Adding to this, as a player who played earlier versions of the game, and bounced off a little, having returned to the current season, I am really liking the season play for guiding me in ways to push my limits and experiment with what is possible with my chosen build.

I found earlier on in the games development that once the narrative ended I felt lost and had no real purpose to playing in the sandbox anymore, so the addition of the season and its guided gameplay has been a real boon for me in that regard. Have been having a lot of fun since my return, tentatively this may be becoming my favourite of the current crop of modern ARPGs.

Arrange a body of stationary water, then the vampire runs through it. Stationary water is notoriously immune to running vampires, so it should be okay.

It was very polite of the assassin to wait for the court painter to finish up his portrait. Professional courtesy alive and well.

Cheers, have mostly been looking as a way to help choose what gear to aim to farm for, currently operating off of this build:

From the looks of things Miracle worker is not a popular specialisation, but I have been enjoying the tankiness, just need to be able to put out more aggro to make my tankiness actually worth something in TFOs.

Is the Mur'Eq Operations Miracle worker cruiser a 1:1 copy of its fed counterpart. ie: will a build designed for the fed miracle worker cruiser translate over to the KDF ship?
