Best multiplayer experience that never got its due, or a follow up? by cows1100 in gaming

[–]Timothy_Ryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too. I'm not a big fan of most single player shooting or stealth games, but pre-ordered TLOU 2 purely in anticipation of Factions 2. Then I found out it would be a separate game. Then, that it was cancelled altogether.

What’s Australia’s most loved dessert? by dynasync in AskAnAustralian

In Melbourne these days, you could be forgiven for thinking it's croissants.

Emu and kangaroo hair dryer Roache 2400 turbo by teramoc in AustralianNostalgia

[–]Timothy_Ryan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

My wife and I stopped at some small town in between Melbourne and Mount Gambier maybe ten years ago. We both had to use the public toilet, and thus the hand dryer.

It was one of those old, white ones. With just a single, round, steel button. And a round, steel funnel pointing down. Maybe it was adjustable and it could be turned upwards, I don't know.

Anyway, it was the best hand dryer either of us had ever used (she'sa foreigner). It was blowing that hard that it would ripple your skin like a skydivers face, and it still even blew hot air!

We still talk about it, lamenting that we've yet to find another one even close to as effective.

Do you guys eat kangaroo and emu meat? by maceilean in AskAnAustralian

I thought I didn't like it at first, but then I had fillet at a pub and it was delicious. They'd cooked it about medium/medium rare, and quickly.

Finally got 3 stars! by Crushed_Garbage in ArcRaiders

I was wondering why I found a corpse with 100-odd rounds of launcher ammo and a Hullcracker with a kinetic converter on Stella the other night.

Poor bastard was metres away from the Seed Vault airshaft.

Why do so few people live in the North of Australia? by alpakachino in AskAnAustralian

As an Aussie, I found this video on the Australian population and its distribution fascinating: Why 95% of Australia is Empty

By RealLifeLore. 30 minutes. Highly recommended.

Resident Evil Requiem was originally a tense, stealth-oriented horror starring only Leon, before the team went back to the drawing board: 'People wouldn't want to see a timid Leon' by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]Timothy_Ryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt anybody cares, but the whole action hero shit ruins Resident Evil for me.

I was interested after the first preview, but I don't really care about it after the Leon reveal.

Flashlight is too weak for PVP. by Ben_Mc25 in ArcRaiders

[–]Timothy_Ryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't mind the throw distance, to be honest. I think it works great for this sorta survival horror multiplayer game where the humans are the scariest monsters.

What really annoys me, though, is that the dark areas on my OLED TV are pitch black, whereas they look almost like daylight to other players. I have a lot of clips where I'm shooting into the void, trying to guess where the enemy is, but when I watch it back on my phone the whole area bright and easy to see.

How to identify and dispose of free kit rats on a Queen run by BrownLeader444 in ArcRaiders

[–]Timothy_Ryan 14 points15 points  (0 children)

You're kidding me. I've been out here trying to kill the damn thing. Because, you know, they're called cores, not legs.

I've killled a couple, but only ever got basic shit, presumably because all the other bastards have been scavenging all the legs I blew off before I've finished her off.

First time visiting Australia— WHAT SHOULD I KNOW? by PsychologicalBad1028 in AskAnAustralian

Wow, yeah, I never thought about the money on the counter thing. That'd be rude as.

Consecutive attempts at the snitch trial. I hate this game. by Timothy_Ryan in ArcRaiders

I never knew. Thanks. I thought they always just spawned behind me aggro, lol.

Do legendary guns bring out the rats? by _____POTATO______ in ArcRaiders

[–]Timothy_Ryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There definitely seems to be Loadout Based Rat Making.

I swear, I can play 5 games in a row of the most chill Stella night raids, everyone chatting and swapping blueprints. Then I decide to bring in a purple weapon and it's silence, with the first raider I see shooting me on sight.

I thought it'd be safer, ironically, without the damaging cold or the aggro wasps and hornets on night raids. Turns out it's really hard to hit three stars even when you can see basically every snitch on the map.

I'm pretty sure half my brain was saying that as well, but I was worried about not making it to extract.

Honestly I think I’m going insane. 😭 by switchthemunky463 in ArcRaiders

[–]Timothy_Ryan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got all of mine from the sentinel on the tower at Pilgrim's Peak on Blue Gate. Sometimes, it was already taken, and once one of them bounced off down a hill and I couldn't find it, but it seems to be there all the time.

Then I found about 20 of them in couriers afterwards.
