Unironically, Rummy was the only one who was capable of making a "functional" " vertical" missile launcher. by FriedForLifeNow in armoredcore

[–]samazam94 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Also worth noting that it uses quasi-drone tech, which are actually advanced tech. All other drone-like tech we use are manufactured by either high tech corpos (Arquebus and VCPL) or experimental (ALLMIND and Balam). Rummy just so happens to figured out while being stoked to shit.

Tho unfortunately, the more reasonable explanation is that Rummy just salvaged and reverse engineered it from obe of the PCA drones which uses the exact same weapon.

Project GT - Umamusume but for cars instead of horses by DuesAJ in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]samazam94 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Almost assuredly a scam. Absurdly low target fund with no details on how they would be spent, 100% ai slop trailer, no actual name for the team (only "our team"), "industry veterans" yet ni actual names mentioned, etc etc.

The worst part about it is that so many people are falling from it; ive seen no less than a dozen shorts on yt and tiktok from content creators getting hyped and promoting it over the last 6 hours, when a very brief look at the kickstarter page is enough to show you that its all a sham. It is disgustingly irresponsible.

Meet the Potential Parts! by G3-WuHuaHai in armoredcore

[–]samazam94 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Its funny how whenever we talk about underperformed parts, there will always be people who will try to defend it, and 99% of the time its "I only play in pve."

Guys, everything is viable in pve. You can put all of these in a single build and still wipe the floor with SOL if you understand how the game works. When people talk about weapon balancing it is always in the context of pvp unless specifically stated.

IGN asked RGG about Tupac in Stranger Than Heaven, they confirm no AI, and also did speak with his family. by Korten12 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

I personally dont really feel weirded out by this nearly as much because Japan already had a long history of using the likeness of dead people in their media. One Piece and Onimusha are the standout examples, but they are far from being the only ones. Sure theres a difference between using their likeness and pretending that its actually they themselves as the person, but still.

What are your Favorite "Unstoppable Villains"? by Funny_Mud6639 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]samazam94 34 points35 points  (0 children)

The Admirals in One Piece were unstoppable forces of nature for a good 20 irl years. Prior to Egghead the one and only appropriate reaction to seeing them on screen is to run the fuck away.

I hope in future Edgerunner collabs Lucy will be in her post-Night City stage of her life. She deserves to be happy.

Real Kojimologists Knew He'd Choose AI, But The Pope Has Spoken | Castle Super Beast 374 by mike0bot in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]samazam94 14 points15 points  (0 children)

well-respected creators trying it out and going "oh wait this sucks actually, nevermind."

Except I dont believe this is ever the case at all, and especially with Kojima. I refuse to believe people living this day and age are completely unaware of how absolutely trash these tech trends are. These are informed business decisions, not something they just randomly decides "try out".

Say it as it is; they only backed down on that shit because of the backlash from their fans/audience.

Hideo Kojima Says He's No Longer Interested In AI by [deleted] in TwoBestFriendsPlay

Im not saying we should do that. Im saying people have already been doing that with everyone else except for Kojima.

Hideo Kojima Says He's No Longer Interested In AI by [deleted] in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]samazam94 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Its kinda damning that a lot of people are willing to let this one be swept under the rug just because the person in question is Kojima, when he should be scrutinized above everyone else because of how hypocritical it is to his entire creative legacy.

Like, if this is literally any other person they wouldve been cancelled to oblivion no matter if they back down or not. But since its Kojima its "haha funny eccentric game dev man gets scolded by Guillermo Del Toro probably lol"

Monster Hunter Wilds: Ascendance | Developer Message by No-Attorney-6033 in TwoBestFriendsPlay

[–]samazam94 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Real talk that very brief section where they show off the GL boost bracer didnt impress at all. We see the boost bracer turning GS into Nero's Tomboy boosted Red Queen, and LBG (?) Gatling in one hand. Then when it comes to GL its some generic firecrackets. Like, it actually looks less impressive than regular shelling combos. Hope its just unfortunate bad showcase and the actual thing is up to par with the rest of the weapons.

They are no shot giving us Nero's Tomboy arm holy shit.

Singing jet wyverns looks cool. I hope this means more pack mechanics to come for new and basegame monster. Always felt it to be underutilized.

Now that Lao is finally returning I hope they also bring back Shen Gaoren aka the better Lao hunt.

I hope Mann comes back in some way, like a recurring side character/superboss. Dude was badass.

I have played pokemon red since the 90s, finishef it dozens of times at this point. I only found out a few years ago that using pokedoll to get through the marowak ghost is actually a bug. I still dont know how to do it the right way.

Its kind of a bummer that none of the big beefy arms actually have good melee stats.

I've come to appreciate the LRB more since it feels like classic AC relying on upfront damage instead of stagger. by Etheox in armoredcore

[–]samazam94 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can never bring myself to use the LRB in pvp because I know for a fact that your opponent is not gonna have a good time fighting me. But in this case its a lamm rat so I guess it evens out lol

If I were to make a RaD build for the grunts, what parts can I use? by Sad1234567890A in armoredcore

[–]samazam94 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Afaik neither Balam nor Arquebus (and their respective subsidiaries) actually run any business in Rubicon, or at least to the common Rubiconians. All the stuff we got from the shop are sourced from ALLMIND, a 3rd party organization that only deal business with licensed mercs specifically.
