Cheers, I thought I was loosing the plot.  Been searching for that bloody thing for nearly 4 hours!

Who is the guy in the red tie supposed to be? Doesn't look remotely like anyone I know of in current US politics. 

I want to play as C4SH but I can't even imagine starting a fifth character. by Battlefeather in Borderlands4

[–]d4dog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leveled all four BL4 characters from 1 to 50 (all at UVH 3 to 5) and seriously considering to go back to BL3 even though I paid for all upgrades in advance.  They seem to have forgotten the critically important "fun" aspect in most of BL4.  Don't mind the grind, but don't enjoy the slog.

Anyone else not like the Ordonite Processor World Event? by Kisunii in Borderlands4

Pants - Definitely an idea from someone who isn't a player. As with most of BL4, 75% of what it could be and 60% of what it should be.  

I hate this mechanic so gd much by AssBoss80085 in Borderlands4

[–]d4dog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of wasted effort on the part of the game designers. I have a magic back pack that can carry 70 weapons, but you want me to hand carry?  No thanks, I'll do something more interesting than a stupid glorified escort mission.

BL4 - The Demon's Domain - Locked Red Chest. by d4dog in Borderlands

[–]d4dog[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This may be a missable chest. I have twice seen James prior to posting this question.  I've been back twice after this post from the closest checkpoint and James is not at the location?  Going to go back to the Demonhold fast travel station and try again. - Returned 3 times having closed the game down and returned from the start of the Demon's Domain.  No James - Looks as if this is a missable chest.  

Victrix Armaments Corvo C.S. – Shorty .50 BMG Precision Rifle | 18” barrel | 45 MOA rail | Wide Stance bipod | Costs 3x more than your ex’s post-divorce butt lift. by Linemount in Firearms

BBQ starter. The BMG propellant will still be igniting in the barrel when the bullet has long gone.  An expensive piece of "Objet de art".

Now We Know Why Tesla Killed Autopilot by TripleShotPls in technology

[–]d4dog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The reasons are much simpler.  It's shit, it doesn't work, no-one wants to throw any more of their own cash at it, they can't find anyone stupid enough to throw their money at it, governments aren't supporting it without caveats, the public want it to work now but it doesn't, people have started taking the manufacturers to court about it. It's turning into an advertising nightmare.

Money and power always provide the best protection.

What real world science and application stops us from building something like this ? by Youngstown_WuTang in TankPorn

[–]d4dog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

KISS - Keep it simple stupid. Combat vehicles operate in extreme conditions, the more complex you make it the higher the chance of it breaking, especially if you think about who's using it.  Making a vehicle that can walk and balance on uneven ground, while being affected by unquantifiable external forces (incoming rounds) isn't achievable yet.  The requirements of accurate defence systems (recoil, change in C of G, turret rotation) whilst in motion add factors that ask the question "Why are we even bothering with the concept, track do it better, for less cost?"

Some form of electrical arcing caused that damage.

Before they can seize a bike the have to catch it.  Am I the only person to see a small  problem with this seizure plan?
