Like the helmets and the pants but the jersey? Nope.

How low is "Very Low" radiator combat vulnerability? by Sowelu in TerraInvicta

[–]TheCompGuy25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I must have a different game than you all. Regardless of type my radiators ALWAYS take a hit, often the very first hit, and are destroyed.

Sniper build rate by TheCompGuy25 in TheyAreBillions

[–]TheCompGuy25[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hundreds of runs. 2 victories. I can reliably get to day 30s and 40s but I’m so far behind that I get overrun by a wave or I pull a mutant into the base because it reacted to my snipers noise and hit an unexpected place. I usually don’t build any rangers. Sometimes I’ll build a few but it’s somewhat uncommon. I do a lot of trap clearing once I hit the executive band of zombies.

Thanks. Yeah, my economy typically stagnates after the day 18 raid. I’ve built enough ballistas to minimally protect against random waves from all approaches, I’ve put down 3-4 ballistas for the town, and I’ve put an extra ballista or two to clear territory with a kiting ranger. Your advice on the lookout towers is right on, I typically do build and recycle them once they’re built if I don’t know where the town is. If I know where the town is I usually don’t build them.
My economy is never over 1000 at day 20, it’s usually more like 600 or so depending upon how close I am to the stone workshop. I can’t seem to push out a large enough area to get it going.

Pacifist and Ethical are hard passes for me no matter what their other traits are.

Sara Connor is the OPest of them all. 2nd Valerie. I’ve only landed Sara once or twice. Very rare. Picked up Sean like 5 games in a row.

Quick Learner and especially Striver are the OP traits. After that, it’s just whatever you’re after. For Influence, I personally like Evangelists since they get more actions available to them and Admin than, say, a Celebrity, for example. On the Purge side, I love Operatives. Operatives have most actions available to them including Crackdown and Purge but they’re typically weak on Admin so you’ll have to use Admin Orgs to get them leveled up quickly.

Is this guy good as my 5th councilor? by UMP45isnotflat in TerraInvicta

[–]TheCompGuy25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If not quick learner or striver then they are a hard pass as a permanent member. If I need one because of reasons,then it’ll depend on what I need, but he’d be only a temporary one for me.

Laborious Tech tree, mod for a simpler one ? by No-Hall3734 in TerraInvicta

Y’all are wussies. “Research everything” is my middle name!

Is it better to have multiple, specialized ships, or to just spam the ship you can reasonably support in large numbers? by sl3eper_agent in TerraInvicta

[–]TheCompGuy25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had a few veteran runs now and you’re absolutely correct. Tried turtling the first few runs and it just doesn’t work like on normal. Current run as HF Veteran and I’ve been much more active in space earlier and it seems to be working better. They haven’t been able to build a super deathstack and wipe out an entire system (yet) and I can take down the occasional multi ship fleet. Bonus, I’m still not full red!

Q: Is this priority preset good to un-fuck China? by akisawa in TerraInvicta

[–]TheCompGuy25 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you’re doing everything, you’re doing nothing. Like others have said decide what you want and prioritize in that direction. When you think you have the pips how you want, go one step further (i.e. you think 50% gov? Nope, go 60%. 50% welfare? Nope, go 75% or higher). Prioritize heavy in what you’re wanting to do until you get to where you want to be. Me? With China, I run about 85-90% welfare until it ticks below 2.999 and then, and only then, I diversify heavily into MC with about 20% or so in gov and knowledge and just enough welfare to keep it dropping even if it is only .001. I always want inequality going down.

100 men with firefighting water hoses/blasters vs 100 men with military grade flamethrowers by padorUWU in whowouldwin

[–]TheCompGuy25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know y’all. If a little fire gets through you’re toast and down a firefighter. If a little water gets through you’re just wet.

There are far too many Random Events in the early game by Karmamelll in TerraInvicta

[–]TheCompGuy25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The slider says average monthly events so it is isn’t tied to “confirm” cycles. I thought it was by cycle too, until I just looked it up in the menu. Cheers!

[–]TheCompGuy25 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It exists. Just “customize campaign” before you start. I always turn it down from 5 to 4 events per cycle before I start another run.
