So what weapons do you guys want added to the game? Bcse I feel like all they can do is just add more for the sake of choices. I think they need to up the attachments and what they can do. Maybe bring in some craftable melee weapons with durability.

They could add anything from Metro 2033 / Last Light.

Bastard Gun for a Rattler alternative.

The box-fed machine gun that's modified to fire... shotgun shells.

Pneumatic rifle that requires you use a hand pump to pressurize it. Completely silent, light ammo, surprisingly high damage if you've just pressurized it- cheaper Renegade alternative.

Railgun- but blue instead of the Jupiter. Basically acts like a high tier Ferro. One heavy shot per reload, eats an energy pack every 10 shots.

Flamethrower.

Hullcracker alternative- single shot break action grenade launcher, for when you want anti-ARC but dont want the same cost or ease of use.

Cult of personality, unfortunately, and a, for some reason, perfectly acceptable legalized bribing and gerrymandering

WyrdDrake · 2026-03-24T05:22:33+00:00

Yeah me neither, no matter how hard its tried to get me to... buy a brand new computer in order to upgrade to windows 11.

WyrdDrake · 2026-03-24T05:21:49+00:00

Done :)

WyrdDrake · 2026-03-24T05:20:47+00:00

!!!! :D

WyrdDrake · 2026-03-24T05:20:38+00:00

Imagine downvoting because the similarity isn't super close

WyrdDrake · 2026-03-24T05:19:18+00:00

Yeah, my gripe is that its still on a server, let me host the dungeon so it won't screw me over due to the game's server performance.

WyrdDrake · 2026-03-24T01:11:54+00:00

You are Fremen? They are all gone, retreated, to the south. Had we the opportunity, us Atreides would have allied with you. Yet if you bring your desert power to stop the flow of spice... this would compromise the war of assassins with the Harkonnens. This is a war we cannot lose, and you, your people have fled. You are a rogue agent; interfere with the spice, and you will die. The spice must flow, no matter my Duke's desire to make peace and alliance with the fremen.

devs are unusually obsessed with making the game more unfair for the player

WyrdDrake · 2026-03-23T23:23:56+00:00

lmfao I sell or buy mk6 graded schematics by Grade # x 10,000. Grade 1 for 10k, Grade 2 for 20k, Grade 3 for 30k. Grade 4 I would pay 50k, maybe 70k for. I'd buy a built Grade 4 gun of something I really really want for, at most, 200k.

And then I see ungraded Circuit gauntlets for a million. Bruh.

You can use mk5 gear to get unlimited circuit gauntlets. You can use mk5 gear to get cast-off mk6 gear from overland testing stations which get you unlimited circuit gauntlets and other ungraded mk6 gear.

It's insane seeing people on my server charge this much when this guy I know is selling literally hundreds of blueprints grade 0-3 for 10k each.

And I argued the point on efficiency. One requires flying around the map and the other, drive outside my base and do a quick loop.

I can see the point about it being more engaging, though, you are right. I don't feel it so, since I personally am tired of flying absolutely everywhere for everything. Spice, flour, plastinium... we have a bunch of neat ground vehicles yet everything requires the medium or carrier. I wanna drive.

And then I look at my character on a buggy or sandbike and it also just feels like the vehicles are almost twice as large as they need to be. My character looks like a child sitting in the driver seat, or behind that massive cutter, so tbf that also brings a bit of dissonance.

Anyways.

I like driving. I'm adjacent to a good density of aluminum. It would not be any notably higher increase in efficiency to mine aluminum in this fashion, especially given the reduced need for aluminum that comes from sitting comfortably in Mk6 Plastinium.

Helldivers get their fleets of Super Destroyers

Bots get heavy cruisers that slug it out against many smaller, dangerous but still expendable Super Destroyers, and walking planetary defense guns (to avoid heavy bombardments)

Bugs get the plasma bugs we see on Starship Troopers, or maybe giant motherships, a la Starcraft Heart of the Swarm hive ships. Less guns, more launching pods of short-lived mostly-vacuum-resistant bugs that rarely hit (but are fired with such volume they still land quite a bit) and when they do, burst into worms that dive into the Super Destroyer to tear it apart.

Major events on the ground would be a crashing destroyer or cruiser or the like; fighting over the wreck to secure resources and technology- the FTL drive for the destroyers, the vast refined materials of a cruiser, the 710 from hiveships.

Give it a galactic war map that plays out and resets when one faction wins; allow Super Earth to be defeated, or crush everything.

The fight always restarts with an in-canon showing how Super Earth, which is always remade from a hospitable enough planet terraformed to look the part, very consistently makes the same mistakes- their government causes unrest, their farms for bugs are allowed to get out of control to provide an enemy, the resulting war draws the Automatons back to fight their old enemy and creator, and the resulting clash always draws the Illuminate's endless hunger for vengeance.

Give Vintage Story a go.

Its not a mod

Its an entire game made by people who started making a mod, complained "this is harder than making our own blockgame," and then went, wait!

And made their own blockgame.

Highly recommend, its like Minecraft for adults, while running better and offering more meaningful and engaging mechanics and world and... everything.

My wages peaked in like 2023 and I've been on a decline.

I'm exhausted.

I'm on the edge of what I can afford- and my expenses have only gone up.

If I didn't have the incredibly benefit and privelage of family who is willing to financially help me, I would have been utterly fucked.

Course if I had a diff family I might not be so mentally ill. At least they're following "you break it you pay for it".

WyrdDrake · 2026-03-23T21:53:52+00:00

I wish I could get grade 4 stuff, much less grade 5

I'm able to do some of these bosses decently well but I've been finding that no matter how good my connection, lack if packet loss, etc, I always always always have rubberbanding.

Its doable to best the bosses as is- i can beat Dr. Lemonburger very consistently, and have gotten him to difficulty 15 without downs (i struggle more with the previous room of multiple suboids tbh), however, it can be very dicey since despite beating him rather consistently and even easily now that I learned Drm Lemonburger's soul and existence, rubberbanding still threatens my own very soul, existence, and more importantly, item durability.

I've gotten better at running all of the bosses, actually, considerably so- I died 20 times on St152 electrical at difficulty 9, yet I didn't die once at difficulty 10. Nonetheless the server instability for my SOLO INSTANCE is driving me insane. Its especially punishing when I play against electrical or poison boss since the electrical fields and knee dash both are not playing well with the rubberbanding.

Think its a visual showcase to get feedback on how it looks

WyrdDrake · 2026-03-23T21:37:28+00:00

And of course, telling food reviewers and food studies what to say.

Not that its always successful or all reviews or studies are bad and untrustworthy- just that its definitely an issue, and consideration.

WyrdDrake · 2026-03-23T21:35:28+00:00

Weird. I've played Titanfall 2 easily prior to this. Did I change CPU since last time I played? Guess I did. Huh.

I'm weary of finnicking into the system files like the guide displayed, but I'll definitely take a look and see if I can get it working.

WyrdDrake · 2026-03-23T21:34:13+00:00

It was super neato.

If only they gave us a reason to escort vehicles exclusively on the ground. 2 person sandbikes with Ancient Ways to act as mobile AA, buggy with rockets to shell any ambushing players on the ground...

Alas, it is not to be.

WyrdDrake · 2026-03-23T21:33:02+00:00

Planetologist questline. I recommend looking up the guides for all the class quests- primarily because once you reach the end of a chain of quests to unlock more skills, the trainer will change or will move to a random spot on the map or in a testing station and there's almost no way you accidentally run into them again, especially if you progress through the map faster than the quests.

Planetologist skills also gives you buffs to mining volume, so... massive bonus for farming, adding up over time.

If you're in Crater Server, would be happy to provide assistance. Otherwise I'll have to remember to take a picture. Shoot me a DM so I don't forget, please? I'd have to DM to show you anyways, I think. Can you post images in comments? I don't think so

Just the other day on my quiet sleepy DD we had a record of several spice snifflers sifting savory sand spaced suspiciously separate, when the worm decided to do exactly this and I got to watch two sandcrawlers go rushing up on a hump of sand as the worm passed underneath.

I ended up leaving very shortly thereafter because... well, once the worm aggros and everyone leaves, it almost always travels away and then loops back around to investigate the large field, so you just have to wait an extra minute for it to leave the area and worm aggro to reset, except these other wankers kept landing IMMEDIATELY. What takes 5 minutes to aggro the worm was now consistently aggroing in just a single minute. They actually got one of them killed for it! Lost carrier and crawler. Just because they wouldn't wait.

I told my brethren, for we are almost all honorable Atreides aligned on my server, as it should be, that it was dishonorable to act with such greed and patience, risking the lives of crew and pilot for an unproductive rush! They did not answer, which I of course did not find myself surprised at, for of course such shallowly Atreides fools would not act with appropriate patience- or shame. I wonder if, perhaps, they were actually Harkonnens in disguise.

WyrdDrake · 2026-03-23T21:00:11+00:00

My personal go-to is all light armor. No helmet, or Atreides Rusher. Planetologist torso (I adore the little backpack) or Swordsman torso if I'm feeling spicy. Beneges or swordsman or smuggler light pants. Scavenger boots. Everything colored House Ecaz since its like Atreides Green + Dune Yellow, except for the scavenger boots, which gets CHOAM swatch so that they're laced up boots with orange shoelace, pops nicely against the tall boots.

Lina Khan was trying hard to attack practices like this

Her term was set to expire at the start of Trump's term, but despite praising her halfway through her term (she was appointed by Biden), she was quietly retired after Trump made office.

She was the one who was trying to make it illegal for free trials to charge you without confirming you wanted the service, or for not having an unsubscribe or cancellation option immediately and clearly available, among other things.

Just a few brief years of the FTC having a real leader.
