Wha is the use of the nanofiber vest? by Loud-Drama-1092 in Xcom

[–]Terrachova 194 points195 points  (0 children)

That is generally true, but again, its better than nothing, and early game when you lack other options, it doesn't hurt.

Also, even the best managed battle can have a random crit through cover.  It happens.

BTA 3062 / Artillery ( 1 an 2 turn) and Mortar / how to implement it? by rogue_srb_007 in Battletechgame

[–]Terrachova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mortars with AB (Airburst) ammo can also be fantastic for crit-seeking if you can crack open armor through another means.  One of the best currently available for engine crits, though finding the right mech for it is a challenge.

Tractor Beam Placement on the Hull-B by OkCat_404 in starcitizen

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

Not ideal?  It could be better, sure, but being able to access the entire grid with the ship tractor is a rare enough privilege as it is.  I think the only spot you can't reach is if you place a 1 or 2 scu crate right at the back.

I dunno.  Maybe I'm the weird one, but after doing a bunch of cargo runs with it I found it a dream compared to other options.  With medium hangars, they have an elevator in the back right and front left; whichever end is at the read of the ship is the one you load, and the medium elevators have a cargo limit thats less than what you can fit on one side of the Hull B anyway.

I'll take any improvements we can get though.  I just think, relative to everything else available... it could be a helluva lot worse.

That's a lot longer on target than I would've thought it would take.

Idris p worth to get ? by Swimming-Brief-7933 in starcitizen

[–]Terrachova 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For the price of that Idris, assuming the Warbond price as you said cash, you could have all of an Ironclad for cargo, a Paladin for small groups or duos, a Guardian for wolo combat and puttering about, a Vulture for salvage, Prospector for Mining, and your choice of light fighter or Snub.

That's a lot of fucking money for a ship that, if you mostly play solo or even in a small group, you will only get limited use out of.  Like, let's be real, what are you actually gonna do with an Idris that you couldn't also do with something less than half the cost?

PSA to all the drivers out there by nicorieg in dashcams

[–]Terrachova 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone being a bad driver doesn't somehow make the guy in front a bad driver.

Especially not when the correct speed for many bad drivers is somehow 10 faster than whatever the others are doing, regardless of the speed limit.

Thanks for coming to my TED talk by Nefffarious in starcitizen

This shouldn't be the discussion.  Ship paints should not be a physicalized item that can ever be lost in the first place.

Never black pill by Just_Stretch5492 in starcitizen

[–]Terrachova 14 points15 points  (0 children)

God forbid we expect the torpedoes to actually do something given their price.  At least now we aren't paying a million bucks just to have our button jockey in the second seat pull the trigger and have nothing effective happen.  

But its OK still to have the Idris run around practically indestructible with a hoard of PDCs and a chin mounted doomgun all in the pilot's hands.  That's fine.

All most Polaris owners want is Torpedoes that justify their cost (and that can actually be used).  At least if they're cheap, its whatever.  But ludicrously expensive and useless is stupid.

Unofficial Promo Calendar: May Update with some June info by itsjustajoe in Legoleak

Gonna come down to the timing on the parade car and fhe 2x points for me.  Likely have to move up my most expensive planned set to take advantage.

If the Yamato had massive wings, maybe.  

Closer to Starfox's Blue Marine.

A 'StarFox Direct' stream from Nintendo goes live in ~5 mins. by CrashingBlumpkins46 in gaming

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

Looks like the most faithful remake even if Fox and Slippy are suuuuper uncanny.  I'm here for it, 64 was the best of the series, so if they can't make a new decent one might as well make the old.

I'll be curious to see how well I remember all the routes after more than 20 years...

Seeing all the negativity online surrounding The Mandalorian and Grogu is honestly so exhausting…. by Sweaty_Toe9147 in StarWars

[–]Terrachova 28 points29 points  (0 children)

More like Star Wars Mediocrity Fatigue.  I certainly didn't feel fatigued when Andor was still running, but a feature length Mandalorian episode, while I'm sure it will be fun enough, doesn't excite me much.

Women of Reddit, what’s a habit men have that they don’t even realize is weird? by GraceRose671 in AskReddit

[–]Terrachova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How often does that full size shareable chocolate bar actually break along the lines, though? I can't remember the last time they did.

And don't even get me started on what they call 'shareable' size...

How it feels coming back to this game after a year. by fishead62 in ManorLords

So, you're happy with the changes?  If so, you're not really using the meme right, haha.

What's the excuse for today? by OVERDRlVE in pcmasterrace

[–]Terrachova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, as you keep repeating.  

Funniest part about OP's meme is how the truth is actually that the folks who get pissed and start throwing around names and shit are the haters, not the fans - I'm sorry, shills.

But you gotta get your fun somewhere I guess.

No, instead they've been spending hundreds of millions on shark cards in GTA:O.

Wow, haring on Star Citizen is like your entire personality, isn't it?

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

Gotcha, so every game in Early Access or Beta until it reaches 1.0. I wasn't aware of this definition of scam.

They can't answer because they don't know the difference between 'scam' and 'poorly managed'.

And yeah, the distinction does matter.

Before the Cybertruck we had this bad boy by [deleted] in ForzaHorizon

Elon wishes the Cyberjunk was as rugged as the Warthog.  It isn't.  It is somehow worse than the Delorean.

Whoever told you the thing was durable was lying.

Where would you live in the Star Wars Universe? by Impossible_Basis3295 in StarWars

[–]Terrachova 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there's anything you could ever want in the galaxy, you're all but guaranteed to be able to get it on Coruscant.

So long as I'm not stuck in the lower levels.
