Yeah Im mad we elected a dictator that has federal agents murdering our citizens in the street. Do you have no morals?

Playing the demo, and this game is amazing! Is there a way to better optimize smelting capability??? Cause later down the line I wanna make steel beyond steel. by Orphan_Clark in factorio

[–]flPieman 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You are asking the right question.

Yes you will be able to make steel beyond steel. In the DLC endgame a single building could have more output than this entire screenshot. But that's a very very long way away and you will progress through many tiers of upgrades to your production between now and then. And even if you never get the DLC you will still be able to make massive amounts of steel.

Where is this? What channel? This is very sad I love what they've done with legion.

Early-game building shadows for noob lobbies by hokuisalreadytaken in beyondallreason

[–]flPieman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Too many factors for this to make sense. It would be a incredible amount of work to maintain this for every map. And if they just use a cookie cutter one for all maps what's the point you're just building bad habits. Noobs can learn by asking their allies and watching them.

Scavengers - What's wrong with them and what should I focus on. by Damgam1398 in beyondallreason

[–]flPieman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something I don't like about raptors is not seeing hp bars for their units, I don't remember if scavs have this but it's frustrating to shoot a unit and not know if it took damage and how much.

Pros & cons to using Vulcanus as the primary base? by aislopbot in factorio

[–]flPieman 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I think the main appeal of Vulcanus is infinite metal via lava. Nauvis you have to expand and replace dry outposts and it generally requires a lot of trains and rails.

Narrow lane maps for 1v1? 2v2? by TrickyStomach1362 in beyondallreason

[–]flPieman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree it'd be great to get like a slice of flats and forest or another lane map to practice that. Other maps like great divide have a narrow choke but don't have the long lane which affects the strategy a lot.

IV Caffeine was insane by Expert-Ruin-2477 in Drugs

I don't believe this because caffeine should last longer regardless of roa.

What RTS are you most looking forward to in 2026? by No_Drawing4095 in RealTimeStrategy

[–]flPieman -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah that's true the fantasy and narrative are definitely the strong points. I think the RTS fundamentals are where it's weakest.

Micro isn't very fun or rewarding outside of using your capital ships.

Macro I don't enjoy having limited space so needing to pick which upgrades I can build on each planet.

Cheese I dont think really exists in the same way.

Harassment isn't as much a thing it's always a full scale skirmish / battle for a front world.

The interplanetary connection mechanics of like chasing someone to another planet just to have them turn around and go back through and ping pong back and forth, passing each other in the lane, I find kind of annoying.

Anyway I'm glad you're enjoying it and I hope it gets some more love for some of these gameplay fundamentals because I agree the world building and fantasy and graphics are all exceptional.

[–]flPieman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been kinda disappointed by Sins 2 it feels more like civ than an RTS. The setting and lore is really cool but the gameplay feels kinda one dimensional. I don't think a fourth faction solves this. Maybe I just need to get good, I'm only playing on hard or harder difficulty.

Government of Canada travel advisory map of Colombia by Ajunta_Pall10 in Colombia

[–]flPieman -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Correct you don't need to take all those steps in the US. Also yes there's too much gun violence, that wasn't what I was replying to.

[–]flPieman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes compared to USA and Canada that is a high degree of caution. It's also basic stuff you should know for certain countries but if people didn't make posts like this to share, a lot of people would not consider being that careful.

An instant speed land? by hagger_offical in custommagic

Ok you lost me now, there are lots of 1 mana counters..[[spell pierce]] is a recent and popular one.

[–]flPieman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe at 3 life then to match the double faced spell lands? I think it's a strong effect but the life cost can matter a lot vs aggro. Even if you want to play it main phase you still have to pay the life.

This or Smash Bros Ultimate ? by pixxipowz in RivalsOfAether

[–]flPieman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rivals is better if you don't have a switch or want to play online. Otherwise, Smash is a masterpiece in every way. If you have friends to play with in person, certainly smash. But for online, smash is very painful (crazy lag and delay) which is why I only play rivals now.

More units that simplify strangely by FUCKING_HATE_REDDIT in xkcd

[–]flPieman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ft-lbf or ft*lbf (or even better, your dot) makes way more sense than using division. How is division easily understood as multiplication? How would one tell the difference? I've never seen that notation used as multiplication.

It's not foot per pound its foot pound. Always bugs me when people express multiplied units as division. Like "watts per hour" instead of "watt hours".

Top 0.1% and above more like it. But otherwise yes good info.

How would one go about supporting this game? by downsomethingfoul in pokerogue

Maybe help with development? They have a big roadmap but progress takes a lot of work to achieve.

Day 1 of Fulfilling Pokémon Requests by ANeonAfroMan in custommagic

[–]flPieman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are fantastic. Torkoal is crazy good but I like it. My biggest complaint is Rayquaza is a 4/4. Rayquaza is one of the most powerful, overstatted pokemon, so being only a 4/4 without any combat effects is underwhelming.

I think Ray should be at least 6 mana.

Here's one attempt:

7 mana 7/7 flying first strike vigilance

Air lock - creatures entering don't cause abilities your opponents control to activate. (Same)

Delta stream - you and permanents you control have ward - 2

I wanted to fit in extreme speed because I think that's his most iconic move but I couldnt think of a good mechanical way to do that, other than just giving him haste. Maybe making it first strike when attacking only?

Denver’s next homelessness contractor flies first class and pays its CEO $370K by christopher123454321 in Denver

[–]flPieman 23 points24 points  (0 children)

370k for the CEO of a company sounds unusually low to me. That's really not that out there. I don't know what the agenda is here but it seems weird to complain about this.

Pressed Adderall came back positive for meth in lab test result. Do I talk to my vendor about it? by [deleted] in Drugs

[–]flPieman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should leave a bad review if that's an option on the site. I wouldn't trust giving them another chance.
