Thread for Gamers IX: God Howard Starfield Edition

I did a solo queue for Rainbow Six competitive/ranked and it was... It actually went pretty well. 3-1 out of the 4 matches.

I just need to die less often. Thankfully not spawnpeeked.

Remember, no Russian Confederate.


Huskers March to the Sea will make Georgia beg for Sherman.

Sherman is one of my Corps commanders : P

Well its no wonder you won so decisively when you had automatic rifles.

Just needed to invent time travel, pop into the future and get some Machine Guns and bam sorted.

Most oy my Infantry brigades are using the following two rifles if anyone is curious:

Springfield M1855 (Or it might be M1861's... i cant remember now actually)
Lorenz Rifle

But i have some units using Harpers Ferry M1855's and 1853 Enfields. I find the first two to be very reliable and consistent damage dealers, so i try and buy/salvage as many as i can to outfit my best Brigades.

Most of my Cannons are 12pdr Napoleons with some 24pdr Howitzers and 10pdr Ordance cannons.

Or make more Gatling guns

Minecraft Earth, a thing I've literally just learned existed, is going to be shutting down in June.

I find the replies full of people who don't seem to realise the game wasn't popular more interesting then some game no one played shutting down.

So I've just been playing Tropico 6 and have to say, having a blast. Sure, it's lagging and ungodly time consuming, but on the other hand there's nothing quite like a city builder where you can order 20000 weapons from Mexico, appoint ministers just because they are corrupt or order the assassination of a random pensioner because she moderately supports the wrong faction.

Been a bit, so decided to mod the shit out of Terraria again and probably sink hundreds of hours into it again. Other games I've been playing on and off have been Spelunky 2 (which I am god awful at so far), Elder Scrolls Legends surprisingly (still prefer it over Hearthstone) and Rimworld (which is a insanely addicting game).

Same thing happens with Skyrim and Civilization V for me. I may not play them for a long time, but when I go back, it's 200-300 hours again, easily.

Beat Cyberpunk finally. Got all the cars and district achievements too. I liked it, time to do it again as a Corpo.

Skyrim is one of those games I've played so much and I've pretty much burned myself out on it, even with the additions of mods, which is just like required at this point.

Did you have to do a lot of grinding to get enough money to buy all the cars?

[Herador]

Did you have to do a lot of grinding to get enough money to buy all the cars?

Kinda, but not how you expect. There's a painting you can find that sells for 4k, but if you leave the vendor and come back and rebuy it, it only costs 5. Exploit? Sure, but 225,000 E$ was too much of a grind for me. Used to grind out what I needed to finish Beat The Brat.

Hah, that's funny. "Sir, you do realize this painting you're selling for five dollars is worth four thousand dollars?"

Gold II for R6 Siege! Then it dropped back to Gold III because I lost two matches and I should have quit while I'm still ahead.

Yesterday was pretty amusing, not going to lie. It's fun to see a new guy trying to see what the hell they should do to break an enemy's gadget that is impervious to gunfire. I didn't go nuts on them because that's awful, and also because we were there before as newcomers.


In conclusion, eh! 7/10 yesterday. ♥️

I actually agree. I never bought into the whole "Lootboxes are gambling" thing.

[Atheris]

Well, I did it. I finished FF7R. It took me 30 hours, and every single one was worth it. I finished at level 34 on Tifa, Barrett, and Cloud.

I can easily say that without exaggeration nor hesistation that this game is perfect. It's a modern masterpiece and the best game I've ever played. An easy 10/10. Everything is knocked out of the park with it.

So my friend brought his VR headset over and I tried it for the first time. Played a bit of Beat Saber, Blade & Sorcery and Gorn, it was honestly some of the most fun I've had in a while, I probably won't shell out the cash to buy one for myself considering I need to save my monies, but by god am I tempted now.

Lootboxes are the exact same as slot machines and basically every casino game. You put money in and get a random reward.

Thats a reaaaaaaaally good point actually now that you mentioned it.


You can think of that point fondly on your way to your summer vacation camp in Siberia.

Gambling implies money. As in you bet money, get money. Lootboxes are paying money, getting random crap in a video game.

Comrade Val, questioning Comrade Husker is anti-Soviet and will not be tolerated. It's Siberia for you.

Comrade Husker, claiming an image to be colourised when it is not is a grave insult to the Supreme Soviet and will not be tolerated. It's Siberia for you.

Comrade UniversalCommons. You are good Soviet Citizen. Order of Lenin for you. Then Siberia for lying.
