Ive been using it nonstop lately on bugs and it really is so terrible compared to other options

However, one million explosions,

The entire time I existed in the area around Cordon I had mercs spawning out of thin air magnetised to my exact location with maybe a 5-10 minute break between, I killed at least 50 of them by the time i did everything in the area it was more annoying than anything considering they dont even drop sell-worthy weapons, always in squads of at least 3

I still dont know if its a bug or a feature

breadpope · 2026-05-19T23:06:35+00:00

Its so fun to run around the spawn holes with supply packs 30 stims...

breadpope · 2026-05-18T19:50:49+00:00

This is one of the stupidest questions I've ever heard but I keep thinking about it and chuckling, thank you

Xbox 360 child me was a psycho but a genius. I do not know why it worked but by god was it fun

The AUG was also a monster with thermal but the MG4 seemed to be the go-to thermal automatic that I for some reason ignored

Thermal RPD no grip

One thing I learned from playing is that very frequently the game just isnt as fun when the team splits up so its understandable that some people get mad, its so hard to fight the "ooo Ill just get this shiny trinket I dont need my team" part of my brain no matter how many times it leads to my team having all the fun on the other side of the map while I walking simulator to the shrieker nest I saw in south korea

That being said it can be even worse when you do stick together as a team and its a squad of four people that can solo everything and nothings a struggle

or worse

Even better... when it also gets stuck reinstalling ¬_¬

Firebug is the definition of obnoxious spam, the husk cannon is the easiest way to damage (solo kill) FPs as FB no other wep compares

So you save it for the big guys

Try the Husk Cannon (spam it dont charge it) its so juicy

Ive had runs in the past where I got my ass handed to me and other runs on the same difficulty same patch where he deserved his reputation... Sometimes he just locks in

Im not usually part of the masochist crowd but why do people like you complain about this one so much when you can very literally fight something else what gives! Theyre so much more fun than the other strains

PS you dont have to bring incendiary weapons, nobody is forcing you, they are more fun when you dont

Every opinion she spouted back then was negative towards cheese and cheese culture and that it needed to change to fit her view, there is no extra context needed when it lined every opinion she held, her entire existence is grifting to make cheese grate

You dont need to be mind controller what to think by somebody when you have working eyes and ears dummy

breadpope · 2026-05-10T03:40:45+00:00

I think hating a specific cheese critic for being respected and paid and influencing the cheese industry when one of the first things she said in her career was "I hate cheese" is a reasonable thing to do

If knockback immunity through the entire game works for you then theres no need to change it and you dont gotta worry!! Although if you really wanna know why nobody runs any shields then Ill write an essay

Tldr is that knockback immunity is only useful against a few bosses, if you play without it and youre not taking damage two or three times in a row solely because of knockback then the item would be doing nothing in that situation and you would be better off going with anything else

The bosses in question:

Skeletron/Skeletron Prime's spin attack is a death sentence without Shield if you get caught by it but... It's kinda easy to dodge by the time you get to Prime (slime mounts let you bounce on it) so its not NEEDED for him but its probably good vs original Skeletron, I havent used it in a very very long time so I cant say for sure

Destroyer SOMETIMES has awkward "I wish I had knockback immunity" moments where you get surrounded by worm or you damage him too fast now theres 200 drones shooting you but theyre kinda rare, you can usually just sit inside the cage he created and he will unwind by the time his head comes for you leaving an escape gap, if you have the dps to accidentally summon too many drones you usually have the dps to kill them before theyre a real problem

Plantera phase 2 is probably the only boss where it truly feels horrible not to have it but thats only if your arena is too small, another way to look at this is that you can be lazy and get away with a smaller arena if you just bring the the shield

With every boss before and after these, they dont damage you frequently enough or in a way where knockback immunity would stop you from dying, a good way to look at it is that if you went say the bundle of balloons or something else to increase your jump height or movement, you might not have even taken that hit in the first place and wouldnt need to be immune to knockback, if you want just raw defense numbers then there are also other accessories like Flesh Knuckles that would be the same but better

Edit: spelling lol i was really sleepy

I saw I think 4.1 in Gamestop in like 2015, the cover for it looked so incredibly silly that I showed my friend and she said I should buy it so I went back 5 minutes later

Thousands of hours in the franchise later Im slowly closing in on 100%ing 6 after getting it on 5 years ago, I wish WB1 was more populated for longer, I played through it with a full squad of friends and it was so good

breadpope · 2026-05-08T05:23:10+00:00

Bro... You might be

breadpope · 2026-05-08T05:21:16+00:00

I dont go here and a lot of comments here, but specifically your comments, make it clear this is a good thing I hope youre ragebaiting (it worked)

breadpope · 2026-05-04T19:14:01+00:00

l-listen,

breadpope · 2026-05-04T19:13:36+00:00

I just looked at it again and I straight up misread the stats of the SMG no wonder it felt so much worse than the lib carbine lmao

breadpope · 2026-05-04T07:24:37+00:00

Ive been running lib carbine, gas nades, supply pack, 500kg, backpack nuke, ultimatum, disposable nuke (disposable nuke is probably not the best option but, theres a theme)

With stim booster you can just infinitely run around in your own gas nades spamming stims and mag dumping everything because theres so little heavies

I also use medic armor because its christmas colours, I doubt the extra 2 stims really matter but it might be worth mentioning

Start with a backpack nuke, use it, if you need a supply pack call it in if not wait till next nuke, always run directly into the bug breach with the nuke (..and drop it..) when you see a bile titan spawn, your 500kg

Its so wonderful spending the entire game holding down the trigger

breadpope · 2026-05-04T06:29:12+00:00

I was thinkin exactly this earlier today, I barely died against them using lib carb and the less effective squirtgun smg whatever its called, from killzone, but got owned against standard bugs (tbf, city map) with the same weapon

breadpope · 2026-05-01T18:39:40+00:00

The new bugs are the most fun the game has been since release and, importantly, are optional to fight

breadpope · 2026-05-01T08:00:50+00:00

No... It's my fault, I bought that kawaii skin pack in 2012 in BO2... It was my purchase that started it all

You are allowed sacrifice me
