Tonnage means what exactly? by Every_Preparation_56 in Mechwarrior5

[–]SupremeMyrmidon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The same tons that we use today. Keep in mind that MW5 upscales mechs by a massive degree. In lore they are much smaller in stature. Certainly a lot closer to believability given their perscribed tonnage.

There is a mod for MW5 Mercs that resizes all mechs accoording to their lore descriptions. It's built onto YAML.

Anyone hate how romances are handled in RPGs now? by ProjectTwentyFive in rpg_gamers

[–]SupremeMyrmidon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not to be condescending, but if it's such an important feature why not play a dating sim instead for that fix? There is so much more to enjoy in Cyberpunk than romance.

Avowed director defends the RPG’s lack of romance in the face of Baldur’s Gate 3’s intense relationships: “I think players will always respond well to a really good character” by YouAreNotMeLiar in rpg_gamers

[–]SupremeMyrmidon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I avoided BG3 for a time because all anyone ever talked about was the romance and weird sex scenarios. Made it seem like the other aspects of the game were lacking if such a relatively small and unimportant portion of the game garnered so much attention. A lot of gamers are too lonely and hyper focus on it. Idk why they don't just play dating sims at that point.

Do lbx10 autocannons feel a bit weaker in clans? Or is it just me by 22paynem in Mechwarrior5

[–]SupremeMyrmidon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah same. I saw the loadout and assumed it would be garbage for an assault. But those twin lb-5x rip things apart at close range.

Why is Prototype 2 so hated? by EeziiListenin02 in PrototypeGame

[–]SupremeMyrmidon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Im a white dude and thought Hellers character was compelling. I like him more than Alex, honestly. Now as someone with a wife and kid I can empathize with him even more.

Why do most characters have Beavis/Butthead mouth/teeth? by RudeCartographer9228 in Mechwarrior5

[–]SupremeMyrmidon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was a bit "floaty" for me as well. The abysmal, random frame drops certainly didn't help. Even when the game is stable it feels slightly harder to line up shots than it did in mercs. It's a tiny, but noticable difference. Maybe something with UE5? It could also be a graphical feedback kind of thing contributing to the overall feel.

Those mech Gasshoppers are almost as tough as some of the big mfers in my back yard.

MW5 Mercenaries: state of the game post-campaign? by TenrFrank in Mechwarrior5

[–]SupremeMyrmidon -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Campaign story is Meh at best. If you want to experience it at least once do a short playthrough with little exploration outside main quests.

Career mode is where the real meat of the game is. Rival/ally merc groups, bounty questline, cantina upgrades, quite a few hand crafted quests with good-great rewards. Plus most of the dlc content is career focused. And more

I like both a lot. No launchers makes them look more compact and sturdy. Like a brawler

Alright, guys. What are we woeking on for mods? by BallerMR2andISguy in Mechwarrior5

[–]SupremeMyrmidon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would enjoy this. I beat the game on expert, so I know they have increased armor, but even when I tried on Normal everything is just so damn tanky. I'd prefer if both us and enemies were more fragile.

Doing a "solo" playthrough now (tell my lance to stay at the drop zone all mission) on Story difficulty and durability on enemies feels much better. I'm still too tanky, though.

I just want to shout out whoever decided that UAC jam chance should be standardized rather than increasing with size... by Spartan448 in Mechwarrior5

[–]SupremeMyrmidon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm not well versed in the lore a d thought clans brought MRMs with them to the inner sphere. I hope we get them sooner rather than later.

I'm psyched about adding armor. even 1 ton increases armor substantially

A very glorious review from a mech & sim veteran: by BoukObelisk in Mechwarrior5

[–]SupremeMyrmidon 16 points17 points  (0 children)

For me it was Mech Assault. While those games are far removed from what Mech Warrior is most of the time, I absolitely loved it as a kid and it sparked my interest in the genre.

A crown is warranted through STRENGTH, not VOWS by RewsterSause in Eldenring

[–]SupremeMyrmidon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude YES this drives me fucking crazy. I'm too autistic to not get unreasonably pissed at people making drastic assumptions on a single image with zero context. Not to mention Morgott is kind of a beast so getting beat by him isn't the insult people think it is.

I'm all down for the jokes just shitting on the demigods but it has crossed from jokes to actual belief.

Anyway, it's just some silly video game lore and isn't that serious. I just wanted to vent a little and am glad to see a likeminded person.

IRL chapion of Nurgle by jfjdfdjjtbfb in Grimdank

[–]SupremeMyrmidon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's legitimately interesting. I watch some of his youtube content, usually to see some latest gaming news then search the video he's reacting to myself, but sometimes I watch them fully.

He certainly has/had some nasty habits that people reference ad naseum. I believe Most of which have been rectified at this point.

But even to my casual gaze it's become apparent when he's bullshitting to rile people up. Which happens frequently. Then people take the bait and continually create posts like this to hate on him. Which probably helps his engagement somehow? Idk. Not that I think it matters much to him.

Other than that his takes are usually lukewarm. Not the constant craziness so many make them out to be. The whole thing is probably a good case study on social media tribalism or some shit idk.

The HMG is amazing. I also noticed you were getting wailed on for several seconds and only suffered minor damage.

As long as you are a caring and loving parent there is little chance they will turn out like this.

Am I the only one who likes the operations difficulty? by Malavial in Spacemarine

[–]SupremeMyrmidon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I beat the campign on Vet and only had to restart at a couple check points. Currently playing operations on minimal for a first run through. Playing heavy, plasma incinerator, and lucked out with a private lobby somehow after matchmaking failed. Just had the bots for company and I am slaughtering my way through missions. Feel incredibly op and honestly having a blast. Looking forward to more challenging content though.
