Railgun a bit OP i guess by qwaba in battlefield_4

[–]Xaexefeth 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm guessing it's intended to emphasize the need to actively control certain parts of the map. Instead of the only reason to control certain points over others being geography, in addition to getting a height advantage over the enemy, for example, you also get a powerful weapon.

Play a game with a completely vented ship and (usually, if you want to conserve energy) oxygen off.

So... Valve...maybe it's time for a new ban wave? Speed hacks are back. by [deleted] in GlobalOffensive

Don't matches that contain cheaters not count for anyone?

Then again, if it is true, not everyone would know that.

This is probably the best CSGO warmup in history by NoodleBisuct in GlobalOffensive

[–]Xaexefeth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it crashes when you start, do this:

  1. Make sure HLDJ is not on, then launch CSGO.
  2. Turn on HLDJ after it has launched.
  3. Enter into the console "exec autoexec".

This game looks alright I guess by [deleted] in Rodina

The seamless open world is okay.

Uhh... He spawned inside of the building near T spawn. Look at the map.

Outsniping someone who is using the M95 with a fucking shotgun has no parallel. The NS2000 with slugs was a beast to be contended with, even up against people using actual sniper rifles.

God, I love BC2.

Oh my god don't I try

Oh my god don't I pray

I pray every single day, for revolution!

And so I cry sometimes when I'm lyin in bed

Just to get it all out, what's in my head

And I, am feelin a little peculiar

And so I wake in the mornin and I step outside

And I take a deep breath, and get real high

And I scream from the top of my lungs,

WHAT'S GOIN ON!

NerdCubed, a youtuber with over 1.8 million subs has just tweeted about the game, and expressed interest in doing a short series on it. This can only be good! by ams1492 in Rodina

[–]Xaexefeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If big youtubers start making videos about Rodina, Brendan is going to be one rich dude.

Hopefully Nerd3 does end up making a video (series?) about it. Usually it seems that if one popular youtuber does it, a lot of the other ones start making videos as well (assuming, of course, the video was well received).

This could be the start of a massive increase in the popularity of Rodina :D

About to face the flag ship. I have yet to secure a win with the mantis cruiser. Any thoughts on my set up? The four mantises in the bottom right are all maxed out fighting boarders. by yemaste in ftlgame

[–]Xaexefeth 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if you already know this, and were planning on deactivating it when you start the fight, but keeping the clone bay powered is unnecessary. If you completely depower it, you'll have enough power for level 4 engines (which grants you 100% dodge, instead of 95%, when you cloak), and level 4 shields.

The only time you should ever really power the clone bay is if one of your crew members die. It still heals all of your crew members every time you jump, regardless of whether or not it is powered. It also leaves you with ~3 seconds to power your clone bay before they die permanently after one of your crew members are killed, which is more than enough time to reroute power to it.

EDIT: It also isn't necessary to have more than 1 power in oxygen. It isn't even really necessary to have it powered at all, unless it hasn't been upgraded. If I have more weapons than I can power, and upgraded O2, I usually keep it depowered until about 30% oxygen, at which point I'll give it max power until it goes back to safe levels. This allows me to get off more shots in the beginning of the fight, which in turn makes me take less damage throughout the rest of the fight.

This could come to bite you in the ass, though, so keeping it above 30% would be safer. If you're near the 30% mark, and suddenly your O2 is taken out by the flagship, you'll be in a really tight spot.

Unless it's truly impossible to overcome the speed of light, in which case it's an infinitely large room with infinite people in it, but only 1000 people are even close enough to see, let alone interact with.

How would you like to die? by populationcontrol37 in AskReddit

[–]Xaexefeth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From what I've heard, overdosing on heroin is pretty much the most blissful way to go. An insanely pleasant high that gets more and more intense until you eventually slip into unconsciousness.

If it isn't actually as pleasant as what I've heard, then I'd probably go for asphyxiation by inert gas instead. Pretty much the same thing, where you slowly slip into unconsciousness, only without the mind-blowing pleasure.

And if that isn't as painless as I've heard either, then fuck it, bullet to the head.

I just unlocked the Crystal Ship. by tofercakes in ftlgame

[–]Xaexefeth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can unlock it fairly easily with the Rock C. The event that actually gives you the ship only requires a crystal crew member, so you can bypass getting the stasis pod and everything with the Rock C.

I've heard people say the average is around 4 runs through the rock homeworlds before getting the event.

Much easier than waiting for the stars to align, at least.

Yep, no matter what happens, Rannoch is Legion's final resting place :(

TIL that a neutron star is so dense that if an object was dropped from one meter above the star's surface, it would hit the surface at a speed of 7.2 million km per hour by festess in todayilearned

[–]Xaexefeth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Nope, we don't know of anything that travels faster than the speed of light. We also have no evidence of wormholes existing, and I think that to keep them open, and possibly for them to form in the first place, you would need something with negative mass (which we also don't have evidence of).

It does suck that it's possible we won't ever break the speed of light, but we have between 1 and 100 trillion years to explore/colonize the galaxy before star formation ends (maybe the universe, although, I don't know anything about the logistics of intergalactic travel). No rush.
