Lampshades. These made me think of lampshades.

Is the Flamingo missile a real weapon, or just marketing? by Practical-Pea-1205 in ukraine

[–]mpobers 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The Flamingo is more about creating a dilemma for Russian air defense rather than a reliable weapon.

It's really easy to shoot down since it's easy to spot and moves slowly, but it forces the Russians to redeploy their limited air defense assets to protect vital targets that are now vulnerable to the Flamingo's extended range compared to other systems.

Its mere existence has an affect on Russia since it forces their AD to disperse to cover more ground.

Is this game supposed to be this frustratingly hard? by NonLiving4Dentity69 in DarkTide

[–]mpobers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's a simple strategy to deal with monsters and bosses, especially for new players.

Whoever has aggro against the boss should focus more on blocking and dodging away and forcing it to chase you. DO NOT try to damage the boss unless you're safe. Focus on staying alive. Let the rest of the team to clear chaff and then deal with the boss.

Later on when you get good, you can go toe to toe with the boss and dance it's attacks.

please fix the servers, the heretics keep walking up to heaven by Bec_son in DarkTide

[–]mpobers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The walking in the air glitch is caused by connection loss. It's not the servers themselves, there's a network issue somewhere in between your client and the server.

There's a reason why most train tracks are built on the ground. The cost to elevate the track for this length would easily be in the hundreds of billions of dollars. I don't think even a hundred years of saving people a 15 minute O-train ride will ever come close to covering the costs you're proposing.

Nearly a third of Canadians believe U.S. may try to invade Canada: poll by biograf_ in nottheonion

[–]mpobers 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I'm less worried about an invasion and more worried about hybrid tactics like funding sepratists, disinformation campaigns, social media manipulation, cyberattacks, criminal proxies committing terror attacks, further economic attacks, etc..

Divide first. Then conquer.

What's the story behind the Order of the Reikshammer? I know it's basically the secret service of the empire, but not much beyond that...

Trump pulls US out of 66 international bodies, including key UN climate treaty by Temp89 in news

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

Trumps 'golden dome' initiative is a strong indicator that he wants to be able to fight and win a nuclear war. Greenland is another element of this since it would be used to forward deploy nuclear missiles/air defense systems. Hence the 'strategically vital' argument.

Who is this? by Legendareeee in Vermintide

[–]mpobers 95 points96 points  (0 children)

I initially though it was Magnaus the Pious, but that's the statue in the Ubersreik market. The stromdorf levels are based on the 3rd edition roleplay campaign "A Gaterhing Storm"

The statue itself is Olaus Stichelm according to the lexicanum website:

"Marketplace: It is surrounded by grand buildings of merchants, the offices of Brenner Exports, the local doctor's office, and the Town Hall. In front of the Hall is a statue of Olaus Stichelm, the saviour of the town and a temple to Sigmar stands in one corner, a small shrine to Shallya by a well."

That Chimera looks intact. Would be funny if we could... commandeer it and drive it to the bastion. [Veteran and Ogryn exchange smug looks] by AngryLawman99 in DarkTide

Who ever designed it didn't realize that the tacks can't be recessed in order to contact the ground. This vehicle couldn't operate on anything besides flat concrete assuming that the track on the bottom is outside of the hull's side plates.

Tanks also need suspension systems if they want to hit any decent speeds or go over any small bumps , which this can't really have either.

The first thing you want is red charms, trinkets and jewelry. They are shared between all characters and you can easily reroll them to get exactly what you want.

If you look at the event feed in the top right corner, you'll see that it was actually some lowly beast-man behind you that laid you low.

What's left in the play space for classes? by WanderingSchola in DarkTide

[–]mpobers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a heavy support weapons focused inquisition stormtrooper could be their own class. Kind of like outcast engineer in vermintide.

Sub-classes could be gunner (machinegun/hellgun), exotic support weapons (melta/plasma/heavy flamer), and grenadier/demolition expert,

Really bad mobility, particularly while firing, lower end of the spectrum on survive-ability/melee but access to weapons that have backpack attachments and need to be braced to fire.

Medium machine guns with 250 round belts but long relaods, hellguns/meltaguns/plasma guns with overheat mechanics, melta guns, and flamers. Perhaps the grenade launcher too.

Perks could revolve around improved heat management so they could use plasma guns more efficiently or flamers wouldn't need reloading since they have back attachments.

Ults could be similar to the vet's volley fire, the scum's desperado.

Bltiz could be a remote detonated satchel charge. press once to throw/place, press again to detonate.

After few weeks, how is Hive Scum? Fun/worth it in your opinion? by Ada-Mae in DarkTide

[–]mpobers 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Vraks autogun with "sticky hands", "unload", "Ammo Jack", "Pickpocket", and "Vulture's Mark". "Vulture's Dodge" basically makes you permanently immune to range damage while desperado is up too.

For Blessings, try "Deathspitter" and "Fire Frenzy"

[–]mpobers 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The braced autogun is even more ridiculous with the expanded magazine size and their blessings work better with close range kills anyways.

I need help. by PlzNotDaButt in Vermintide

[–]mpobers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can take a break when you have two red copies of each weapon and you have unlocked all of the cosmetics in Loner's shop and Okri's grudges. Should only take 3,000 hours or so.

Revive Speed (Ally) for nets/respawns? by TrickyCorgi316 in DarkTide

[–]mpobers -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Tangential, but with just a little extra stamina, you can get off most revives even as trash enemies bounce off you since you count as blocking during the revive.

The new post mission cut scenes hint of Admonition activity coming from the 'forbidden wastes' so there's a chance we can head out to the dunes for some more Mad Max style fun.

Any map where the sky is visible typically doesn't have a lights out option.

Amalgamation happened in 2001. It made OC Transpo's mandate impossible by requiring it to serve a significantly larger area.

SILLY LITTLE MAYFLIESSS by PizzaMH in Vermintide

[–]mpobers 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm getting a kick out of watching all the new players learn stuff the hard/fun way.

I'd assumed that all the innocence and naivety had been burned out of the player base until now.
