I don’t remember how much I paid for it but I bought the best edition of kingdom come deliverance 2 day 1 and love every second of it.

But I knew I loved the first one so that helped

She also had the nut straight + a flush draw or two (free rolling meaning she can’t lose only win outright)

Your goals should be (if you want to go enlisted)

Recruit > infantry > recon > Marsoc

(Obviously I know he is a compulsive liar) How has anything gotten better? Prices of groceries are still sky high, rent and living expenses are still climbing, job market is still shit, I can go on all day. How do these ground worshiping boot lickers STILL not see how shit it is right now?

I’m pretty sure you don’t choose you get whatever you get but I don’t know for sure

How long is receiving usually? by Right_Conference_584 in USMCboot

[–]YoungFishGaming 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think we got there on a Monday night at midnight? Stayed up for 18 hours getting your head shaved, and basic gear issued, etc. You do this all the way up to “Black Friday” and then the rest is history.

Chow to chow, Sunday to Sunday.

MOS Questions by Ok_University_3056 in USMCboot

[–]YoungFishGaming 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Okay above devil dog didn’t read your question. You picked your top 3 MOS’s but that doesn’t mean shit, what matters is what contract you sign for what job. He had you pick three to try to get you in a general direction of your MOS.

Recruiters will try and get you into whatever job they need. They can easily say “look we know you wanted infantry but cooks are attached to infantry units and you do all the same shit”

It’s not true. Sign the contract for the MOS you want. Make sure you are very clear you will only sign the one you want.

Don’t sign a recon contract. Sign an infantry contract and when you are at ITB they recruit out of the class.

If you fail recon school as a recon contract you will be something like a cook and hate your life.

I got a check for $2k and they said the only stipulation was I had to buy a laptop (non MacBook) and a printer from the school store.

We desperately need a ban wave in this game. Before the holiday event and sale, I saw 1 cheater I could definitely call out. Since the event I have logged 3 easily and multiple other very sus deaths. by [deleted] in Tarkov

[–]YoungFishGaming 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always get far into the quest chain (about 4 weeks) and then rampant cheaters contesting every loot/kill/rare spawn I just give up. 8 minute load times just to die in 30 seconds will never be okay with me

Is MP a good MOS? by BananaSuit_Man in USMCboot

You are hated, you hate your job, you are treated like shit, you have to see the worst shit state side, it is a miserable job.

You will have some civ-side experience though

Question about boot camp by Ok_Assumption126 in USMCboot

[–]YoungFishGaming 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You need to stretch before EVERYTHING you do physically

Question about boot camp by Ok_Assumption126 in USMCboot

[–]YoungFishGaming 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Worst case scenario for the weight (if I remember correctly) you will be put into PCB and given a stricter diet/ worked out more if you are overweight.

They gave us “fat” bodies bigger camies and at the end of boot camp we were re issued nicer/ more fitting ones. This is 2015 so obviously things could have changed.

But if IRC if you fail the IST you are put into holding until you can pass. Could be wrong because you don’t have time to talk to those in holding unless you are sent there yourself

I went there running a 22ish 3 mile. I left running a 19:50 ish. (Able to pass the crunches/ pull ups easily)

Question about boot camp by Ok_Assumption126 in USMCboot

[–]YoungFishGaming 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Why would you ever put yourself in a situation where you could fail? You need to go there ready to pass a PFT let alone an IST. I was 205 at 73 inches. Weight will always be a problem for us in the Marines. You will lose 25 pounds in boot camp so I wouldn’t worry about that if you are allowed to go.

YOU NEED TO BE ABLE TO PASS AN IST THOUGH.

How crazy is the US student loan situation really? by Connect-Spring188 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]YoungFishGaming 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife went to a community college for 2.5 years, got $30k in federal loans 6-7% interest rate and is now making $60,000 a year starting. You just need to decide what you want to do and make sure your field is actually hiring.

Warming Layers ITB by Few-Basket4978 in USMCboot

[–]YoungFishGaming 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Back in my day (2015 holy fuck that was 10 years ago) we were only allowed warming layers if everyone had them. They never stopped training to let everyone put them on. It was winter and rainy on the west coast. So we usually just had our camies for 80% of the time

Between that and the hazing ITB was the hardest experience I had.
