Is Ghost Recon Wildlands or Breakpoint worth playing?
>>482957654yes they are kino
PROJECT
Based OP is back!?>>482957654Wildlands yes, but only if you're into the insanity that is Ubisoft Open World. Breakpoint? Not so much, no.
>>482957654kill yourself
>>482957887what's with the stutterswas that your PC choking or was that the game
>>482959393That is 100% his PC, the game isn't THAT terrible.
>>482958407
I'm most excited for Armored Brigade 2 out of everything right now. Large scale tactical battles in late cold war Eastern Europe and a very interesting looking logistics/communications system. AB was a great game but the shift to 3D will translate well (and the trailer did a good job of showing height discrepancies across terrain, much easier to comprehend in 3D than 2D). Really it's the scale of operations I'm looking forward to, there's really not many games of this scale that aren't conventional style turn-based wargames.What's your most anticipated game of 2024?
>>482960646https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nPp1UuzNTzsThis one and it ain't even close
>>482960646Tactical Breach Wizards, Armored Brigade 2, MechWarrior 5: Clans and MENACE.
>>482960236cant see shit captain, too much microblocking
>>482960646Infantry was terrible in Armored Brigade and I only buy games with good infantry. So I will not be buying Armored Brigade 2
>>482957654if you have friends then you can buy wildlands on sale since there aren't many games like that despite the game not being exceptionnaly good
>>482957654>is ubislop worth playing?

>>482972385This looks medieval. How does one use crossbows in CDDA all good? I have a wooden crossbow and wooden broadhead bolts, and also a few aluminum bolts. In a past life i found a hunting crossbow.The reload time on the crossbow is so long, and the short range shots don't even pierce armor.
I was hoping to get lucky, but there was no chance that I could take down the undamaged mech too.
I bet sectoids taste kinda like fish
Any tips for Hitman freelancer? I end up failing like 70% of my missions. Specifically getting the special kills, and getting away seems like a huge pain. I sometimes find the target, but then over 9000 guards take me out.
>>482998456Also forgot to ask: Any tips for which cartel to take on early on?
>>482956806Looks cool
>>482956859Project Reality 1.8 IS OUT. new ww2 Soviet faction, added chechens to Grozny. Stalingrad is out. reading changelog rn.10 new maps, most are eastern front theater with t-34s IL-2. there is also new vietnam map and another one in bosnia in krivaja. pretty big updatehttps://www.realitymod.com/forum/showthread.php?p=2224720

>>483006289kinda sad feeling missing out on this and MWLL when they were bigonly bf2 thing I played more was Forgotten Hope 2, but even that was past it's prime by thenso many games to play, but so little time...
>mfw hitman is no longer welcome here
>>483010416why do you think that
>>483010416Nothing is welcome hereEvery time a single game starts to get traction and actual discussion going some autist will start screeching and killing itHappened to Arma, happened to Thief, happened to Hitman, matter of time before it happens to CDDA
wow
>>483012340This desu
Found a Battle Brothers OC gif in my hard drive that I thought I had lost, so I posted it in /vst/The anon that made it happened to see it and said they originally made it a webm with audio but never posted it, so here it is
>>482989667what happened after?
>>483012340Here is a lifehack, you can just ignore those autists and continue posting.
>>483015485I'd rather whine about imaginary problems and continue making the general worse
>metapostingYIKES!!!Gen deserves 2b ded
>>483015225I slapped the damaged mech to shit in the next round but got one shot by the other after thatTo be fair I just checked how it is, but have 0 idea about BT rules
>>483015848Probably! But since it's still here:Close Combat is fantastic. I really like how firefights feel in it

Is Caliber good?
>>483017606it's free to play, just try it and see how you like it
>>483017606Milimeter has more players
bodyham
>>483018140This is at least f2p, right? Makes RoN look AAA
>>483018474noham
>>483018474those are braindead players, not braindead AI
>>483017606As someone who's played it for a bit, not really. It's very much on the soft side of &tg with only stuff like a magazine system and somewhat short TTK being the tactical stuff. Other than that, you've got characters you need to buy and skills you need to grind that give players a definite advantage. The PvE mode is barebones as well.The models are great though, especially the premium ones.
>>482998456>>482998584>be slow and tactical>silenced pistol and lockpick are the 2 most important items>any with new york if you need money or suburbs if you need an easy finale
>>482957654Depends. Both of them are pretty standard Ubislop, but Breakpoint is lice service Ubislop. That said, if you were to get just one I'd say Breakpoint. It has more content, more stuff, more everything to an almost detriment.The moment to moment combat in both is pretty uninteresting though.
>>482998434I could imagine Ethereals tasting like fish but sectoids look tougher, more like chicken
>>483020751>silenced pistolGetting one is an issue in the first place. I end up going loud and just killing every guard on the map, trivializing the game, but also making it less tactical stealth and more Dynasty Warriors with guns.
>>483022431you can get silenced weapons on sgayl or dubai and also from assassins during a finale
>>483022678I think the hackl 9s covert also shows up on finales in mendoza. In the security locker room you can get to by taking the cliff route behind the winery and going through the big congrete thing with a door on the cliff. One of the guards in the locker room is using one, but only on showdowns.
>>482998456arms trafficking is a good choice early on because you can get rifles, smgs, and shotguns from guardswhen you get deeper into the mastery (the dock) you can get a fiber wire or sedative vial (if you have a knife) for free through fishing, which should make assassination and big pharma more accessible early on in a campaigndon't overextend yourself trying to complete an objective you think is outside of your abilitynobody will pick up a couriers merces after they're dropped, so if you get to a good vantage point you can kill them for some easy moneyin addition to opening safes quietly, breaching charges can also net you a silent explosive kill if placed right under a target's feet (they're an illegal item so be careful about where you try that); conversely, if you get a duck the collateral explosive kill is the easiest bonus objective in the game avoid Colorado like the plague, fortressier maps like Marrakesh and Sgail can be pretty spooky toodon't be shy around dealers if you're constantly failing campaigns, since you're gonna lose that money anywaymost importantly: don't play if you're not having fun, 47 won't climb out of the screen to kill you because you didn't grind to get him potty privileges
>>483018140>>483018474>made by two guys aged 17 and 19 in order to cash in on the unrecord fame>used to steal famous maps from other gameshow did they get away with it?
hardcore campaign in hitman really is pretty hardcorei just prestiged and thought this is a chance to try hardcore but wew lad
>>483012340Arma was always banned and that's the fault of armafags bringing in their shit drama. Thief and Hitman are not tactical games, even if they're good games.
nvm, harcore is just retarded>epic melee kill obj when i don't have any epic melee weapons>timed - disguises>use only 1 disguiseThis shit is broken af
>>483030967I have literally never seen any Arma drama besides people like you that cry about it.
>>483031032NO! you don't understand! the arma drama is REAL IN MY HEAD!
>>483015485The thread was nice and healthy before armafags came back, now we need to bump it every 10 posts or so

trannies in charge of project zomboid better add silencers into their game at some point what even is the point of ranged weapons unless you play on builder difficulty with 0.3 population
>>483042090>Realistic>RealismI think that people that call it this tend to only be scratching at the surface of what's possible with HDestHDest is a mod where you can inject experimental combat drugs, gain superhuman strength and stamina, leap great distances and crush an archvile's skull with your bare handsThere's ghosts of soldiers you can summon to distract targetsThere's an eldritch being that can cloak you from sight, but that hates light and pain and will betray you at the most inconvenient timeYou can make flowers grow out of concrete around you and turn enemies into alliesIt doesn't fit into this neat little box of 'realistic' that people seem to want to put it in. If anything, it has verisimilitude and an internal consistent logic that merges sci-fi with fantasy
>>483043538sounds like you just need more bullets
>>483042090Because in those games the tacticool guys already went in and died so they need a super cool guy or random nobody to deal with it.
>>483044673speaking of which, ammo is scarce and too heavyliterally more guns than ammo in that stupid game which might be realistic since it's set in amurica but nevertheless

>>483006289>Project Reality started as a mini mod in 2005>Turned standalone in 2015>Is STILL being developed for to this fucking dayIt's honestly fucked up how long and how insanely feature rich this total conversion has become.

Bump. Decided to reinstall Tarkov, got bored of other slop. Gonna rat someone's kneecaps and steal their stuff.
>>483073280>la criatura de la nocheBased

>>483074463>it means "11 at night"I'm even more fucking confused now.
>>483074784Tactical Video Games
>>483074969Oh, the whole phrase. I could tell what la criatura was but didn't know the other half and only looked up that part. Then yes, that is me, don't come to Interchange on US servers, I'm gonna be snatching knees.
>>483075424Bold of you to assume that I play on legit server, or bought the game. But thanks for the warning. Got get those filthy stream fags!

>>483075805I was translating the wrong part. >>483075424
>>483075857it is not possible to get "the wrong part". it literally means this. if any translator ever said "11 at night" at that, it's retarded
>>483075805>cuckfoxthis isn't /g/>>483075857ALWAYS use the whole thing when translating something, not just a snippet you don't know. You can never know if a bit of extra context is important.
>>483073280fuck you
>>483073280No one passed by me on the first raid cause I had to pick a less high-traffic spot due to joining somewhat laid in that particular raid, very sad.
>>483086438*lateFuck.
>>483086438Unironically skill/FLIR issue
>>483087132Nah, just picked a bad spot cause I wasn't gutsy enough.
>>483087193>I wasn't gutsy enoughAs I said, skill issue.
>>483073280Based. Just got the itch again myself. Only lvl 11 so far, so still waiting on flea and lvl 2s to just start playing mosin sniper fun times. Pretty much every wipe i hit flea, stop caring about questing, and just turn it into a fun player hunting game with my pu'd mosin.
>>483089902>nothing happens in first raid>try to get into another raid>game crashes first time>can't connect to server after 5 years of loading loot>my rig runs the game just fine and the FPS was smooth as butter during the first raid and now my game is just fuckedNikitaaaaaaaa
Unity is a good engine... TRUST THE PLAN
>>483062289you will almost never need 1 more capacity, and you'll always have the encumbrance penalty
>>483090705>check Tarkov forums>this is a recently cropping up issue and not just meWelp, so much for coming back to this fucking game. Anyone wanna play some Quickplay R6 Siege?
>>483095167Going to play crash free on my private Tarkov server instead
>>483097307I prefer a larger pool of unsuspecting players to rob from and I doubt a private server has many people.
>>483097402And I prefer not being cheated to death. Sadly we can't have everything.
>>483097557I also doubt it fixes the fact Nikita's game now runs like dogshit compared to a year ago. I had none of these issues when I played a year ago.
>>483097631Then play an old version? Can't do that on a pay2play server obviously, but it's not like you have many choices if you want a game that isn't crashing or doing some other bullshit.
>>483097757I'll look into private servers later then, I can't be fucked at this moment.
>playing solo, end up downing two trios at Blanchett>randomly die to a spitzer mosin from 120m+ away while inside the main room on the first floor fighting the boss>necro res>somehow on the balcony outside the second floor>insta die again>spectate>trio of boxnames running up to my building, end up killing the boss and fucking offso what kind of cheat is this that moves your body? has this been around for a while? first time experiencing it
>>483097852>necro fag getting ownedJust as bad as the cheater cucks, only difference being that you're enabled by the devs. Then again, so are the cheater, since Crytek is slow as fuck to do literally anything about cheater just like Nikita.
>>483097993>crying about necro res when it has a million ways to counter-play that don't involve babysitting the bodyI accept your concession. still the first time seeing this goofy ass cheat though. I know about the dead bodies sliding sometimes but this was way too complex to be that.
>>483097852Cheater being able to kill you across the map is sadly not new, far from it. Booster and what not tend to use it to level people that pay for their ""services"". The teleporting shit feels new though, but I'm not hardcore into the nitty gritty of Hunt cheating, I only know the basics.
>>483027254Thanks anon>free fibre wireThat's actually one of the first things you get, I believe the stetoscope in the infirmary that you get right away counts as fibre wire. >nobody will pick up a couriers merces after they're droppedWhat they for sure will pick up tho is your briefcase! I've thrown one off a roof because I had a shitty spawn and you can't climb with it, and by the time I went down some fucker took it and stashed it away! I had no Idea where. I worked hard for that shotgun! >most importantly: don't play if you're not having funI wish I was better at this too. Because *I am* having fun, but I'm also losing a lot, which is obviously discouraging. I'm in a weird spot where I enjoy the freelancer missions a lot, but it gets very tiring after a while. Maybe I should just do challenges in regular maps, but I do so enjoy freelancer shit. Another thing I don't get is why failing an arcade mission has a 12 hour cooldown. What's the point in not letting me play this? That almost makes me feel like I should look up a guide for it, rather than just honestly try my best.
>>483010416according to who?post about hitman, as long as it's not the other game that attracts shit stirring faggots I really don't care
Being some psyker bitch in Underrail isn't really worth it, is it? I'm sure that late game damage can be pretty wild, but the extra bullshit you have to fiddle with seems rather annoying.
>>483108082you can get some extra lore at spooky monolith things otherwise no
>>483108527A bit annoying. Been thinking of re-rolling for a while, but I'm too damn lazy to do all the content again, even if it might not be that much. Guess I could fuck around with Cheat Engine or something in the worst case.

Is Phantom Brigade good yet?If not I'd like games with simultaneous turns. Yes I've played 7.62 and I like it but I wish there was a total conversion that had a handcrafted, more linear campaign.>>483108082It's quite fun and unlike most other builds you can guarantee damage because you don't miss with single target attacks.On the other hand it takes quite a while to be fun and in my opinion Metathermics is the strongest school of psi while being the least interesting.
>>483127480>Is Phantom Brigade good yet?Haven't played it, but while the updates seem nice, I don't think they are enough and address the weakest points of the game.

>>483142591Yeah, you "convince" them with money.

>>483144886I readt the revs for the game and it seems interesting but they apparently simplified the game and didnt add much of the content (also fucking 50e for remaster of dead franchise)

>>483168551>Unedited (with HUD) gameplay mixed between CGI cutscene footageI said it on release, and I will say it again, the trailers are weirdly low quality thanks to this.
>>483169562I like that they show the unedited gameplay, I actually want to see what it's gonna look like when I'm playing. I'm not concerned with beauty shots of 'oooo pretty graphics'Since they're doing a very story-focused thing, the inclusion of cutscenes makes sense. Wouldn't be the same if it was just voice over or reading briefings like in the old games

>>483169835My problem with the unedited footage is that it rips you out of things, and to top it all off some of the footage seems sub 30fps. But the last bit could be more, so who knows. The composition of "fancy cutscene" with raw gameplay footage feels like a odd decision, like it was slapped together by a fan. A straight forward gameplay trailer, or maybe even a full show case might've been a better choice in my eyes.
>>483170036I don't need armor, I just need to live long enough to dump my missiles into the torso & they die in 2-3 shotsThe vtols, tanks, & turrets are super annoying though when they shoot across the map to hit my rear armor, especially those fucking gunships I hate them
>>483171145>Medium X-Pulse Lasers>XXL engine>In 3039YAML is nutty
>>483171758They're super rare, I only managed to find the XXL from a mech in the market & stripping it, & the X-pulses as a reward
>>483171943>They're super rareI would assume they would be, considering they wouldn't be invented in the IS for a couple more decades lmao
Also really like YAML, adds a lot more customization/quality of life to the game which felt a bit lacking before
>>483115490this is propaganda kurita is much worse than Liao I barely even had to kill any ejected pilots to earn my citizenship
>>483172162One of my lancemates, supposed to be a sniper, it has the sniper AI on it but the dumbass keeps brawling & is still alive somehow>>483172802Idk much about the lore, watching a video about Aleksandr Kerensky rn
>>483115490Feddies are more Franco-British feudalism than anything else. Arrogant, somewhat militaristic, noblesse obliege is a big thing culturally etc. They generally try being "the good guys", and sometimes, rarely, even succeed at it.Steiner are germanic-centric, but with a lot of minorities (Gaelic being the biggest), but their whole schtick is mostly business and industry. Very laissez-faire on the economic side, and money is real power. Has HUGE issues with nepotism, especially in the military leadership.Kurita (who are kinda both samurai and WWII imperial Japan LARP mixed together) and Liao are about equal in the warcrimes department, Liao manages to somehow be even worse on the domestic side until Sun Tzu managed to get them back to about even with Kurita.Marik/FWL is basically a dozen different nations under a trenchcoat. Very big on free market trade, stupendously diverse culturally and basically only ever truly united when someone tries invading them.Most American diaspora settled in the Terran Hegemony, the OG founders of the Star League, controlling the area around Terra. Then the whole Amaris thing happened and the sad remains of the Hegemony got basically gobbled up by the five Great Houses right before it was nuke'o'clock and they bombed each other halfway back to the stone age.

Just watched vids about Aleksandr Kerensky & clans & I gotta say I support total Capellan death after seeing that they basically cause everything wrong
>>483183285Ok but have you considered that their paintjobs are pretty cool
Anon who got Brigador a few days ago here.How the actual fuck to tanks move?They don't move absolute, i.e. pressing right goes to right screen and they also don't move relative, i.e. pressing right turns right.A bunch of times I have been presenting my ass to some large caliber cannon because that piece of shit didn't do what I wanted.I have the movement set to "Arcade", whatever that means. There doesn't seem to be a manual or tooltips either.The killdozer was still fun.
>>483187351This is mandatory, do this now
>>483186857They are cool but holy shit why do they cause everything wrong?
>>483187665cheers
>>483189201Enjoy!The pic rel controls were actually the default in the original release, what the game was designed in mind for. The new defaults you witnessed now getting the game were a compromise, because people were refunding the game en-masse upon discovering the game wasn't a twin stick shooter.
>>483187351>There doesn't seem to be a manual or tooltips eitherThe tutorial is in the campaign
>>483189893The tutorial does not explain the different movement setups though.Although I discovered that I'm a fucking retard because there's actually a description on the right hand side. No idea why I missed that.I am still missing an actual, written manual. I hate how games have almost completely forgone manuals. Instead of doing that lame audiobook they should have written a proper manual.
>>483191932>lame audiobooki liked itthat burning alive scene was pretty gnarly
things to add to cddabinding items: being able to bind items together, for example, ace torches and welding goggles. if I drop or pick them up, some sort of system that asks or a keyless that automatically drops both. there's items you will never want just one or the other and it would be nice to have little groups. drop my holster? grouped handgun, magazines go with it. pick up just the handgun? it auto selects the handgun and magazines associated with it. also works as a half fix of my other idea. literally combining weapons, like duct taping a flare to a molotov, so when I wield it and go to use it, the ignition source is with it.how many times I've gone miles in some direction and realized I left behind a lighter or kept behind a welding mask...or grabbed my weapons and left behind the grenades, yadda yadda
>>483216484actually the more i think about it, this would be great for way more. you could have a riot suit associated with all the weapons and gear you use for raiding and wear it all with one key press, and same with taking off. raiding? wear the riot suit. looting, wear your hiking bag, and all your looking gear is auto worn.

can i use c4 or explosives to take metal doors/concrete down in cdda?
>>483245373All I remember from it back in the day was "Fun music" and "Terrible performance"
>>483245779wait, i have some .50 bmg and a rifle that fires it, but itll only get me so far, so any ideas with explosives?
>>483245901If you don't mind peering into the Matrix, you can look in the .json files for the wall you want to blow up. There's a min and max strength for each one, that's how much damage you need to deal to destroy it. There's no health, only a chance roll if below max.
>>483248652nah, i dont want to debug/exploit deeper then i already have. so far i only use debug for bullshit scenarios or scenarios my character wouldnt of done ( thought he was driving and just walked away from the car) sorta shit,im just getting hit left and right with labs and im still suffering radiation sickness and my current strength with a pick axe doesnt seem to do anythingwait i just thought about this. should i be digging holes, not knocking doors down with the pickaxe? i have a have a heavy sledge and cant knock down metal doors or concrete with 10 strength (11 but radiation)
>>483245779Much better to just find a jackhammer (electric or petrol) to dig the wall. c4 is rare.Or even better, find a bar window and just hacksaw it open depending on where you are.
>>483252429yeah but rng means i havent got those. instead, ive got 11 units of c4, and 26 c4 hacks i could dissemble. hell ive got 5 at4 single shot launchers and a m3e1 recoilless rifle firing 84 mm projectiles, and 30 84mm HE and 42 HEDPim fucking loaded with high explosives, nothing else
>>483252970Boi wat the hell boi.Alright in that case, c4 does work if you place it right next to the wall, but it will destroy things on the other side, so pick a place you think there is nothing.>https://youtu.be/mUqveoP6Ppc?si=JHRQaqSURoeRJEmZ&t=873If you're going to throw it after activating, make sure your character has at least throwing 1, just throw some books or knives at a wall.
>>483253435ill try the c4. and yeah, i keep trawlling the map looking for tanks and jackhammers and instead im just looting military outpost after outpost. i have so much goddamn high explosives

>>483269871lol I should play this more
>>483281912>A telltale sign of a power gamer in BattleTech is if they start complaining that the canon mechs “Are shit”. An average player will have a few designs that they don’t like, of course, but if your opponent rags on about how garbage every second mech in the game is, chances are they’re a power gamer. Allow custom designs at your own risk, because you could spark an (optimization) arms race that prevents you from using canon units ever again.ain't that the truth
>>483281912thanks, I was actually looking at /tg/ right nowbit weird how there are like 2 or 3 beginner boxes with different simplified rules or something, a separate boardgame-y and tabletop version
>>483284059Game is 40 years old at this point and has changed hands, plus they've tried appealing to different crowds (those who want the classic wargame vs those who want simplified rules) and at different levels of complexity (mechs-only or combined arms).
>>483283498Technically speaking, they are right, canon variants are almost universally "shit", but that's because canon variants weren't made to be hyper optimized meta machines, they were made to have varied, interesting loadouts, with knowingly(sometimes unknowingly) added flaws, blind spots and limitations. There's a reason you almost never see stock mechs in MWO matches.The game would have to force people to use stock mechs for them to appear regularly, and it would have to give them completely random stock mechs, if you didn't want everyone to just immediately settle on the few variants that coincidentally cater to MWO's meta.
>>483283498>>483285169Some of the stock builds are just insane, like there are some heavies that have worse performance stock than mediums.On the other hand, players always get close to infinite supply of high quality parts they can choose from, of course ideal conditions will mean less than ideal builds are shit.I'd very much like a forced stock matchmaking, but the other issue is that they never managed to properly transition BT from TT to fps/sim games, TTK is way too high to cater to boomers and it doesn't make sense to take completely system from a top down, turn based game and bolt them on a real time simulator, it just won't work. To make an actually good mechwarrior game you need to use the fluff from battletech.
>>483285848TTK in MWO is "way too high" because battletech is not supposed to be a twitch shooter. Mechs, ignoring unusual events and supernaturally good pilots, are supposed to take minutes to kill each other, and that's if they mutually jump into a suicidal brawl.TTK is actually way too low in MWO, it's just that you can't do anything about that while giving players clumsy, slow, awkwardly waddling mechs, perfectly accurate weapons and easy, complete control of a mech's aim.
>>483287891>Battletech rules allow through-armor-critical hits>~2% chance on every hit for potential TAC, then you have to roll 8+ after to deal critical>This can happen within the first couple turns, making any mech eat shit if RNGsus hates you ouch but also get fucking owned
>>483287960it do be like that sometimes
I loved lucky one shotting people in War Thunder or just getting them in 2-3 hits, I wouldn't mind a Mechwarrior like that
>>483287960depending on house rules, some people choose to ignore TACs because they can feel unfair. some only start allowing them after the first few turns
>>483288291the closest you can get to that right now is using two or more gauss rifles in MWO and accidentally headshotting people without even realising it, just by firing in their general directionI didn't even realize the first kill in this clip was a headshot until months after the fact, and I wasn't aiming for his head
>>483169407>>483172162As a Jenner enjoyer, I'm salivating at your rear armor rn>>483288175OOF
>>483288291What do you mean lucky shot?You are aiming into their ammo rack, right?>battletech is not supposed to be a twitch shootersure, but MWO is, you just need to do it multiple times>Mechs [...] are supposed to take minutes to kill each otherbased on what? You can't even trip mechs by getting one leg now, ignore the human like movements, currently mechs handle and act like tanks, it just doesn't feel goodand in my opinion the core reason is because they are trying to lift the tt rules and put them into the game 1:1 instead of understanding what that rule is supposed to be a stand in for, like a weapon's range is supposed to be the distance it can accurately land hits, not a hard line where it stops doing damage. It's insane to me that people want to bring restrictions and mechanics that make sense in the tt, into a sim game. I say it again, they should look at the books and get the ideas from there.
>>483290106>>483287891Forgot to quote.
>>483290106The books work on the same rules as the TT most of the time, sometimes they even interpret the rules too literally.Each turn is ten seconds. See how many turns it takes two 4/5 pilots(the canon average for IS mechwarriors) in enforcers to kill each other in a suicidal fight to the death, ignoring headshots, TACs and ammo detonations, it'll probably be 6-12 turns. Now consider that's not how they'd actually fight.TTK is too low because of the reasons I just stated. You are not getting an accurate, first person mechwarrior game without VR, full-body tracking and extremely skilled developers.
>>483290016weird, I tried searching this person's @ to see more but I get no hits with @KitgsArt or any other variants replacing the t for an l or the g for a q or y
How good is the vindicator?Thinking about having one as a poor man's Shadow Hawk II C lol
>>483296432Poor Man's Shad IIC is a normal Shad.Vindicator is a slower machine, a low-end trooper, but very solid for its bracket. Well, except for the whole ejection seat issue it has canonically.
>>483296432it's a really mediocre way to field a PPC, it's like a fat panther
>>483290106>What do you mean lucky shot?>You are aiming into their ammo rack, right?You mean in WT? Of course, whenever possible. Good enough if I just cripple them until my next shot seals the deal
>>483273817Thanks for reminding me that I still have an ongoing AC2 campaign.
483273817>This poster will never know the joy of tactical gamingSad
Brigadoranon here, with another question or two:1) Is there any actual "difficulty spike" in the campaign? Like, when should I expect things to get hairy? Because I must admit I just took a few tries to do the mission in the necropolis where you have to destroy the statues (one time I hilariously killed myself from stomping an ammo depot). I love the periscope tuktuks.The mission after that where you start without ammo was pretty fun though.2) I got the achievement for using orientation lock on a tank. I can't remember that mechanic being explained, so what gives?
>>483318590Mission difficulty is mostly just which mech you choose. Though the D- E- and F-series missions at the end are a noticeable jumps in difficulty, with the Fs being utter ballbusters for most loadouts.
>>483318590>Difficulty spike?Yeah. Oh yeah. The F-series missions are infamously difficult. Think of them as challenge levels after the credits roll. They were made by mappers from the modding community.Before that, there's a couple of tricky ones, such as the one where you start with no ammo. For the most part though, you will find the real meat and potatoes in the Freelance mode. Pilots are your difficulty select, with the hardest being Precursor James. The shittier the vehicle, the harder it will be but the more payout you will get. And the longer the operation you choose, the harder it will get as well.One of the classic challenges is doing the Closed Casket Special with Precursor James. I did it with the Arlo once, it was a fun ride. You must survive 39 districts in a row with no early exits. Good luck.

So someone mentioned it before, but how do you even get into a Tarkov private server? Since the current retail Tarkov is falling apart at the seams to the point dozens of new forum accounts got made recently JUST to complain about it on said forums.
>>483359301Define "private server". Coop server can be found on mass through the FIKA discord server. FIKA is primarily made with coop in mind, but PvP is possible to my knowledge if desired, just not on mass on without setting people up.
>>483360142No "perpetually online private server" like WoW private servers?
>>483360925There used to be, but then Nikita got REAL upset , shutting things down REAL fucking quick. The only reason FIKA still exists is because it works on a lobby system, meaning that you can't just join random raids through matchmaking. That, and the fact that it's trying to stay under the radar of sorts. No idea if there is some underground shit without these limitations or not, would be fun to find out for the hell of it though.For context: FIKA is literally just a plug in for "SPT", meaning you can use mods while playing coop.
>>483361432>lobby systemLame, guess EFT is dead then since Nikita fucked up the code so bad only 32+ GB rigs can survive the loading screen without issues despite 8 GB rigs able to run the actual game itself in-raid perfectly smoothly.
>>483361776>loading screenYou mean the bitcoin miner?
>zomboid>yachts mod (so swimming too)>try to walk on a pier and it makes me fall through and start swimming>catch a cold>cure the cold within an hour of sitting down inside a gazebo
>>483361776>LameMaybe so, but at least we finally got a way to play coop, with mods as sprinkles on top. While coop with matchmaking would be cooler, we can't have everything.
>>483362493No PVP is what kills it for me. Ratting niggers for their stuff and making them mad is my dopamine.
>>483361889I wouldn't doubt if it was one at this point.
>>483362804Understandable, even if a bit cringe. Sadly for that you have to suffer through all the bullshit that live has.

I've been playing Battletech BEX. Someone on /v/ recommended I play BTA instead.Is it that much better? It looks like it adds a lot of extra stuff and I'm wondering how well it's actually implemented.I've been doing the campaign and I went with the default start date of 3025. The tooltips say BEX implements stuff in the game according to lore dayes, and the cool shit doesn't even happen for almost 25 in-game years.>>483169407We seem to be in the same boat but different games.I played MW4M when it came out and i was 12 and no idea what I was doing. It was fun all the same. How is MW5?
>>483394885this is probably a bait post, but that's Gunner Heat PC
Are there any tactical (preferably strategy, squad level a la XCOM) games with really advanced and deep wounding systems? I'm talking about different limbs being targeted, different types of wounds with different mechanics and animations, dragging/carrying the wounded, CASEVAC, MEDEVAC, realistic recovery and healing time, and so on. Thanks.
>>483405541battletech has a lot of what you're describing, especially the tabletop game(which megamek translates into a digital format that can be played against a computer)just that it focuses on mechs instead of humans on foot
>>483405541Arma with ACE
>>483405541Armoured Commander II has most of these points you described for your crewmates, and it's turn based tactics. You have to pull out your dudes from the tank when they're unconscious/too wounded to move and stuff as well
>>483405541Idk if these are tactical but there are always some mods to fix them Rimworld (its more colony managment sim but if you "Draft" your colonist you can move him around freely there are also mods to enhance combat if you feel it feels too slow) and i guess if you are into melee you can get Kenshi and last is i guess CDDA (I only played Rimworld)
>>483395683MW5 is alright vanilla, but with DLC & mods is a fun timeI don't think it's worth it full price though I got it all when it was on sale for like $50 in totalCan't wait for Mercenaries to come out this year with 5 player co-opI got a lot of dudes I play games with so that's a bit better than usual 4 player co-op stuff
>>483390983>has been GROWING this past decadeHuh? To me it always felt like the community is slowly but steadily dying out, seeing less and less fully populated 100p server. Plus the fact that third worlder have been taking things over more and more, english becoming a secondary language.

>>483426507The character faces are a lot better than I expected, but still not as good as the ones in the slot machine.
This Genzo ninja battle in ch. 2(chaos) of tactics ogre is kinda getting me tilted. The terrain is all kinds of fucked up on lake bordu, and dispatching his octopi and doragon is easy enough if i dont try to recruit them, but when his main forces comes to clash, someone always gets burned down really fast. I do well, then really well and get most of his guys down, then one of my guys just gets burned down super quick and I end up having to alt f4. Might have to just focus Genzo and not to to get drops, but thst feels lame.
>>483429260Got it, but only killed 3 other guys and its kinda just disappointing. Trying for no chariot and no incaps is really fucking irritating sometimes, especially when you want to recruit or get drops, but I think the woods dungeon opens up after this next fight so hopefully thatll help some in that regard. Think Im gonna start doubling up on clerics now that I have access to the quicken spell. The frontliners are getting congested enough already with just 10 man squads. Was a big problem in the aqueduct and at lake bodur. Maybe gonna train up some ninjas real quick to have some high mobilility status chads.
>>483436883Hows the game anon also you tried Unicorn Overlord i seen that it was shilled on v but it dosent have pc release and im too lazy to emulate it
>>483441097not that guy but emulating Unicorn is like 10 clicksalthough I was a bit disappointed by it, it was too easy, I barely ever had to think
>>483441097Naw, havent tried that one. Really liking Tactics Ogre: Reborn, desu. Never played any of the other versions of it, just the FF Tactics games which seem a lot closer to it than Unicorn Overlord. Compaired to the ps1 FFT, the battles are a lot more, eerm, tactical. Theres a level cap for your company, so theres no overleveling to steamroll tough bosses. You actually have to use your brain and prioritize and mitigate threats. The rpg/class/job elements are very forgiving in it which is kinda neat if you dont like do a billion battles to train up a new recruit properly to try out a new job you unlocked. The map and having the terrain work with/against you is pretty fun. The different team compositions is a lotta fun to mess around with to come up with winning strategies by using their strengths and weaknesses. Biggest complaint so far is how underpowered the pure caster classes seem so far.

>>483417808YAML and it's add-ons seem to be the go-to from what I've looked into.I have no idea about engines or endo or ferro or any of that stuff is though.Is there enough information provided in-game to explain how all that stuff works or am I expected to know from playing the tabletop?
>>483459059I would not recommend YAML for a first time playthroughDefinitely mod it, but imo YAML would make a first-timer feel lost specially since you don't know what's up. Not to mention it adds things that will be from the wrong time period (we discussed this earlier in the thread) >>483171758 >>483172151
What's the edgiest tactical game?
>>483395683BTA doesn't have campaign mode, only career. So, if you're doing campaign you should finish yours in BEX first.Both are good mods, there's also a lot more than those two, for different tastes. Roguetech is the "everything and the kitchen sink" one.There's a cool fan expansion called Hyades Rim that you should play as well
>>483459403>I would not recommend YAML for a first time playthroughI kinda already installed it BUT it has a "for retards" option for people like me!
>>483460051There are a few
>>483460097>BTA doesn't have campaign mode, only careerFrom what I've been reading it adds the campeign missions as FLASHPOINTS.I just have no idea what that means because the campaign doesn't have FLASHPOINTS.
>>483459403Guess I'm a genius then, I got YAML halfway through my first campaign playthrough & understood it lol
>>483460247>All your weapon hardpoints are unlocked>But with none of the downsides of actually risking your XL engines or internal DHS because they are indestructible lmaoI mean, yeah, that would be pretty retard friendlyJust for flavor's sake - you should know that refitting a mech with wildly different equipment across weapon categories can only really be done in maintenance facilities or factories. Only simple refits like changing between weapons in their own class or at least with the same or fewer critical slots are possible in the lore in the field. Taking a mech and completely turning it into another thing within your dropship isn't feasible in the lore. Of course you can ignore that if you want, just sayingReason it matters is that Clan Mechs are very different because of the omnipod system. They are game changers in part because they ARE very easy to customize, even in the field>>483462242Good for you

Raven Shield's first mission on Elite is kinda filtering me.
>7 tons for an AC/2 and ammoIt's too much.
>>483495358Post plan and have other &tacticians offer &tactical advice
>>483492852>You already have the resources/tools to replace & retrofit everything on a mech from the lowly 20t locust all the way up to a 100t AtlasYou do not, you'd only have the tools and specialists necessary to reliably maintain, repair and replace weapons, parts and equipment that the mech already has. Minor refits are also feasible, like adding or subtracting armor, swapping some ammo or heatsinks in and out, replacing weapons with very similar weapons.More extensive modifications, like engine refits, swapping weapons with entirely different ones, structure rebuilds(absolutely impossible outside of the factory that built that mech), will almost certainly result in damage to the mech and perpetual complications during maintenance until it's sent back to its factory for complete repair.
>>483498521*nukes the factory*nothin personnel
>>483498047I drop in with a 4 man and try to work through it. IDK how to work *with* the team AI, and enemy AI reaction time makes RoN look like a joke. I tell my guys to clear, and they only clear whats immediately accross the threshhold and "Clear!" then die to some guy in the back of the room. Theres no breah and clear option, or flash to bang on my breach. I tried to que a open and flash, then setup a breaching charge and they were just all" cant do that!" because the need to have a door to open to clear a room which leaves me fucking around and swapping weapons because Im suddenly pointman again and terrorists mow down my team playing grabass in the killzone. Im sure if I set up a green team with waypoints they'd all die before I ever got to hit their 3rd go-code button.
>>483500395>enemy AI reaction time makes RoN look like a jokeIt's Elite difficulty. If you're playing Elite and you haven't even played the game once, you're kind of screwing yourself over. If you tune it down, reaction times will be slower>Drop in with a 4 man...why 4? Against like 20 dudes? You're just handicapping yourself. You want to have situations where you breach rooms from multiple angles or you have a team clear enemies in positions that would be dangerous to other teamsWhat is your team composition? What kind of armor/weapons are you giving them?The in-mission command rose can help with basic spontaneous things, but as you've discovered it's limited. You really want to be doing the bulk of the planning in the planning phase. Consider that you can beat the game by planning everything and then spectating missions. You don't even have to get to the first person shooter portion of the game if you don't want to. Though on Elite, it certainly helps to have both a solid plan and a player involved
>Get Coyotes mission pack>Have fun playing a difficulty 94 mission defending a base>500 heavy vtols come out of nowhere at the very end, destroy my king crab, & have to pay 15 million in repair feesThe fuck am I supposed to do to deal with all this?
>>483501180>Youre screwing yourself by not learning the maps and enemy positions before playing on eliteDoesnt sound very tactical, but ok.>bring a green and gold teamI would be bringing 60 to fight 20 with how they pussyfoot killzones. Green and Gold couldnt even make it through the training missions. Im leaving them in an attempt to mitigate loss, but its kinda just not working out unless I go in first and immediately dome everyone. They just kinda open the door and get shot.
>>483503853have you been putting flash, etc. commands in their orders
>>483503853You're misunderstanding what I said. It's not about memorizing enemy positions or learning the maps. It's about understanding how to plan. Once you are familiar on how to approach this, then you could play any unknown map in the expansions blind on Elite. The important thing is that you understand how the options you have work. There is minimal room for mistakes with the reaction times in Elite. Which is why I would recommend more lee-way while you get the hang of things.>They just kinda open the door and get shotIf you're expecting dudes to just go in and dome all the baddies movie style, it's not going to happen. You need to setup, and you need to overwhelm rooms from multiple angles whenever possible.Take note of all the options you have available to you. Are you using blitz, normal, or cautious movement? What RoE are you setting them to? What kind of armor and guns do they have? What is your team lead's Leadership stat? Have you looked at your team members' stats? They're not just fluff, they actually have a direct impact on how well they all behave in-game
>>483503034Coyotes missions are very hard. They're more manageable in coop with other humans in your lanceIf you're solo then you may need to optimize the shit out of your lance and make sure you're very OP before trying them

anyone play Gates of Hell Conquest and just end up only using the cheapest inf bc there's no economical reason to get even "regular" troops besides AT teams?
>>483504761>If you're expecting dudes to just go in and dome all the baddies movie style, it's not going to happen.Less that, and more I expect them to at least get through the fucking killzone after they announce to the room that they're in it. But, nope. They just hang out, put down a blanket, bust out the picnic basket, and get shot. That's just assuming someone doesn't hear them stack up and opens the door themselves, and wipes the whole team. I got it already, but had a death so redoing it. Just trying to figure out how to work with the game's retardedness.>Are you using blitz, normal, or cautious movement?Don't think thats a real thing in this one, at least not bound to any keys. Once a loud gun goes off, its time to blitz the whole complex IMHO. >What RoE are you setting them to?Just on aggro since all their shit is suppressed already and they die when trying to react to contact so recon doesn't seem that good.>What kind of armor and guns do they have?I just tossed med blk on everyone>Have you looked at your team members' stats?Yeah, but they're all pretty high. Did bring a demo guy because I thought that was gonna be a thing on acct of the breifing saying there were boomdieghs.>Take note of all the options you have available to you.Yeah, thats what I'm in the process of figuring out. Breaching charges seem real nice, but the only way to use them on the active team is for the player to, and then you've also gotta be pointman for the room clear and swap weapons while being the first through the door. Flashbangs just give my guys more time to be shot through the doorway. Tried combing the two by running over to a different door from my team, but they all got wiped by a guy that heard them stacking up. My idea was to use the breaching charge to give the time to flash so we could safely bang. Guess I could have double go-code for a Green to wait away from door, then go breach.
>>483511776In your webm, you're having the guy open a door into a catwalk where the whole room can see him, both downstairs and upstairs. Your enemies have cover and you don't. You're in full view while they have the benefit of shooting first.Things to try:>Don't go this way, it's suicide>If you insist on going this way, throw smoke grenades on the door before opening it and the cat walk as well. This way, at least you can get closer and acquire the enemy faster with more guns pointed their way instead of being in a column from their firing angle in the windows >Don't go this way seriously it's a terrible angle>Don't think that's a real thing??? It's a setting in the planning menu. You can tell your dudes exactly how fast to move at any given movement command. This affects not only their speed but their accuracy while shooting and the sound they make while moving. On Cautious, for example, they crouch walk.>RoESomething to consider is that infiltration can let you get closer to the enemy before engaging them. This can be advantageous if your weapons are focused on shorter ranges while your enemy's are longer range. Though in a mission like this where it's all close quarters, assault is the right call>Med blk on everyoneExperiment with light and heavy as well. Light will afford you speed in actions and movement. If a room doesn't have many approaches to flood, then sending in a heavy pointman might be a good idea>Only way to use them is for the player toThat's not true though. You're just going off the commrose again. You can absolutely have your teammates blow up doors for you. You could also blow it up yourself then activate a go-code so your pointman goes in instead of you
to the anon playing rainbow six for the first time: don't forget you also have progressive lean and progressive door openingthese two alone are super op, and will allow you to lone wolf solo levels if you really can't be bothered with friendly AI planning
>>483515032TrueFlexible leaning is goated>>483513513I'm second guessing myself on a detail now actually: I think if you're on team red, and your next checkpoint is breach charge, you need to manually switch to your red guy with charges and plant them yourself. Then you blow them up and comm-rose order the red team to move inAlternatively, if it's not a sync'd breach, you can switch to green/gold team and red team's AI will do it automatically
This one is from an anon playing with mods, thus the mirror/optic cableBut it does show the 3D preview of the level is on the planning phase. It's supposed to represent the intel you have on the place (since it's an international counterterror organization, you're not relying on quickly scribbled maps on the back of a napkin like you would be in SWAT)
This one is from a speedrun of Steel Wind on Recruit (easy) difficulty, so you can see the difference in enemy reaction times
>>483513513>In your webm, you're having the guy open a doorAnd look how long it takes him! It drives me absolutly fuckin bonkers when &tactical AIs have 0 sense of urgency and a complete disregard for violence of action. Fucking bonkers. Like, look at how long it takes the stacks in your webm to get through the door, and god forbid the second guy through looks left or right. Thank god for heart beat sensors cuz if that camera had been a bad guy someone would be dead. And why do they stack so far apart? Its called a stack! No wonder it takes them 5ever to get everyone in the room.Thats probably my biggest complaint from most &tacticals of similar natures.
>>483521435>god forbid the second guy through looks left or right>if that camera had been a bad guy someone would be deadThis is an issue of what happens on screen not matching what the AI is processing. The AI has peripheral vision, so the corner was indeed checked. It just didn't show the model doing so because it confirmed there wasn't a target there to begin with
>>483522196Yeah, Ive actually kinda noticed that. When my guys are behind me, theyre fuckin awesome, but I lose my mind when I watch them.
>>483501180>>483517187>FALHow is that? Any recs for weapons? I kinda just figured M4 was probably decent and just been running with that and a USP. Its kinda weird though in that a 2 round burst from its auto is way more accurate than trying plinking.
a bit on the nose
>>483522694FAL is pretty good. Your friendly AI tends to be accurate (assuming they have good stats) so I liked giving them rifles with full-sized cartridges. High stats should keep their recoil control goodI think M14 with scope for loud missions and M16 with suppressor for quiet missions are excellent. Try out the USAS-12 with slugs too it's hilarious. And if you're gonna try the Barrett .50 cal, make sure you use it on a sniper operative (because their stats will affect your reticle recovery while using it).
>>483524018Though I would encourage you to try more weapons yourself out too to see what you like. Shoutout to the AUG, G36K, G3, SR-2 machine pistol, and Vintorez
Also I thiiiink shotgun breaching was a thing in vanilla? So that's another fun novelty

>>483525301>oldCOMYes, did a few playthroughs of final mod pack and another one of his mods(not x files, the one after that where xcom is a rebel group). Tried a tiny bit of Xpiratez but I quit because it has my fetish front and center and I really don't want to start jerking off again>Long War 1Yeah, and rebalanced too. I finished the former, burned out on the latter because the mechanics weren't too good to be honest.>Jagged Alliance3 yes, 2 not yet. I want to finish 3 first but I'm also burned out on it and want to wait for some decent overhaul mods first.

tried battlesector, gameplay is sometimes nice, sometimes annoying, so far every mission had me clean up ALL remaining enemies and they keep spawning each turn until the main objective is complete, on larger maps this means spending multiple turns hunting down enemies, most of the game is also DLC locked
>>483570543that game looks better in multiplayer desu
>>483544827So? Anon is describing flavor/lore considerations. The point seems to be that you can play differently depending on if you're dealing with IS mechs or Clan mechs. If you have IS mechs, you don't go crazy with the modifications in the field. If you have Clan mechs, you do
>>483573317The issue is that MW4 had omni slots on clan mech that allowed you to put anything there if fit. MWO decided that clan mechs have multiple variants and you can change the 2 energy slot arm to a 3 ballistic one instead of the arm having a slot where you can fit both.

>>483588879>R8 my planif i'm reading this right>Pic 1>Alpha. Red moves to cover corner, while Green and Gold flow past into the narrow bit. Green goes first, checks a door and a window, then waits by a room at the bottom. Gold waits further back, presumably to watch the ramp and the door.>Bravo. Red goes back into the narrow bit and gets ready to breach door. Green moves into the room and gets ready to breach the next. Gold stops looking at the door and gets ready to flow behind Green.>Charlie. Breach room in an L shape. Red checks smaller room and then goes down the ramp Gold was watching. Green flows back near spawn and starts going up and to the right. Gold goes up a ladder to get setup in a sniper's nestNot bad, though consider that the path to the right and above has a window overlooking it, which you could have someone watch before the breach. I only mention it because it seems like Gold is just trailing behind not doing much at the beginning, you could put them to work earlierThe hostage rescue is gonna be the hardest part because you need to prevent them from shooting the hostages when they see you, so flashes/breaches are a must. You know from intel where they are being held, so you can probably make those parts of the plan saferAlso it seems like Gold just sat there on the nest the whole time after. I honestly don't remember if they have eyes all the way to the extract, but you can check through the preview on the top left
>>483590397>no patches no nothingSilly goose. No matter what old games you play, the first thing you always do is double check PCGamingWiki.
son of a bitch
>>483595051>open graves were like right therecould've just jumped into one and committed sudoku to have one convenient funeral packagerip
>>483594093Yeah, pretty much spot on. Bravo is just a big security pull while green get up on that inner door to breach the big room. For the 1st floor hostage, I had Green go in through the 2nd floor because its a balcony that over looks the room, while Red breeches from the double doors at the top of the basement stairs right by the hostage. The front door has a massive wall and theres no way to flash or bang from it so i just left it.Couldnt really see through that window in the plancam, but just loaded in to acrually see it and, yeah. It only has a view of that courtyard in between the two buildings, and at a very awkward angle too. Might just have Gold be a 2 man to watch some flanks.

>>483603802Fun fact: German law demands every MILITARY vehicle to be treated like a consumer car. This results in tanks needing registration stuff, proper lights and other bullshit.
>>483603970lol, didn't know that
>>483604062German laws around the military is really fucking stupid, so much so that it single handedly crippled the entire system. That isn't to mention the PLETHORA of other problems the German Military as a whole has since the cold war ended.

>>483588879>R8 my planmore like R6 ur plan haha
>>483603970>>483604271Is that more sneaky way of limiting german shit than outright banning the shit like after ww1 ?
>>483607220No it's because those vehicles need to drive on public roads and thus have to satisfy all the legal requirements regular road-safe cars have.
>>483608068shame real life is sometimes just boring like that
>>483606826>Tell me moreWhat's there to tell? German rearmament after WW2 was only because yanks got into a dickwaving contest with the soviets and Germany was right in the middle of it.After perestroika there simply wasn't any *need* for such a large and strong army anymore, because everyone was friends, wink wink, plus Germans are not american or french and can actually live without constantly waging wars.
>>483608537>plus Germans are not american or french and can actually live without constantly waging wars.Should have told so to that Hitler guy
>>483608897Hitler was austrian, thoughbeitever.
>>483607220The FUCK are you talking about? There never were any sneaky ways of limiting germany military, either after WW1, and especially not 2. The whole demilitarization thing was dropped REAL fucking quick after WW2 because of the Reds. The Allies AND the ruskies needing a bufferzone, which Germany was perfect since it's quite literally the zone between each party, hence why both ends got their army and gun production back quickly.>>483608537>wasn't any *need* for such a large and strong army anymore>plus Germans are not american or frenchThey're their own type of cringe>can actually live without constantly waging wars.And yet they entered sand wars with all their friends anyway, alongside other shit that the NATO forces them into one way or another.

Best Ive gotten so far. Green team got wiped breaching the basement hostage room, but luckily the guy reloaded long enough for me to swing in from the back door and kill him. Gonna keep going till no deaths at least. Have a decent plan for red and green and just support them while taking control of the Gold duo. Gonna try and set up the other gold on the back door that connects to the outside and then flash the room myself from Green's breech point inside the basement.

>>483675787I remember playing classic and rogue spear when I was like, 8 or 9 with my grandpa. He was a huuuge Tom Clancy fan, had soooo many of his books. I didnt really have the capacity for PC gaming back then, at least not past shit like pajama sam and spy fox. He help me with the planning phase and tell me about the charaters and stuff, so it was still pretty fun. Dont think i got past the 3rd or 4th level in either classic or rogue spear. Fast forward a few years and I got the classic on the ps1, and holy shit, completely different games. First time I realized PC really was the master race.
>Oh nooooooo!!!>Not the le heckin IMF officials!!!>Think of the heckin embezzlerinos!They're lucky Ding spent too much time shooting brown people for the Army to get a real job.
what
>>483707608IMF(Internation Monetary Fund) is a agency within the UN thay works to do think like promote echange rate stability, and also act as a last resort lender of sorts to nations and provide some relief during crises. Theyre the ones who bailed out greece back when. Theres 2 missions back to back in Raven Shield where you have to rescue IMF officials being held hostage. Theyre probably corrupt and embezzling anyways, so I dont really care if they get shot or not. Ding, however, was formerly in the US Army before joining Rainbow. The vast majority of conflicts during the time while Ding was in the Army were against people with brown skin. Had Ding had developed hard skills other than killing people (as opposed to soft skills resume fluff like "good leadership skills and time management") then maybe he would have gotten gainful emplorlyment somewhere else after the Army instead of Rainbow. Since he didnt, the IMF officials get to be saved instead of shot. Hopefully that sheds some light on the context, and the assumed arguments from which gross generalizations were made from in order to form that shitpost.
thanks i appreciate the explanation

Raven Shield mission 3, Mountain Watch, was a lot easier than I expected. That back ladder route made a 1 team Blitz/Assault op super viable. Didnt use Gold at all, and left green to watch the extract. Im starting to see how powerful smoke grenades are for getting everybody through killzones in one piece. Only reason I brought green along was so I could switch off Red to let the Chavez take Red through the final 1 door hostage room since breach and clear works way faster and smoother if you let the AI handle it. Its cool if theres 2 doors so you can breech one and have the rest of the team open and clear on zulu, but single door breaching I'll just let Ding handle. Feel like that mission would be waaay harder trying an AI only run since the route I took required a lot of nade throws to different floors, something the planning doesnt like.Feel like Im getting the hand of it now.
>>483718478smokes are really cheesy and i dont like using them in games where the ai wont attempt to shoot through them, it just feels like im using an exploit
>>483719943If you make a lot of noise theyll still shoot at you and toss nades your way, but yeah it kinda just brakes the AI. Kinda brakes your own AIs too since they wont shoot through it either so when they come out the otherside its kinda just a reaction test between the AIs.

>>483726323hmm i dontyou saying i might be better off getting the ultimate collection ?

>>483726652Do you mean XCOM: Enemy Unknown or X-COM: UFO Defense?Not that anon but have the same question about XCOM worth getting.
>>483749975I was talking about XCOM: Enemy Unknown with the Enemy Within expansion (there's no reason to play base EU, the EW expansion is just the same game but with more things). Once you play a campaign in it, I would HIGHLY recommend the Long War mod. It makes the game 10 times better.https://youtu.be/_ziuxYNdicUOriginal X-COM is also excellent, but they're different beasts. You can try that one out by downloading the UFO Defense files off the /&tg/ repo and installing openXCOM or Enhanced OXC. It also has great modshttps://openxcom.org/forum/index.php/topic,5258.0.htmlhttps://rentry.org/tactical#x-com-ufo-defense-1994
>>483735391>MW5Why doesn't have a "Complete Collection" or something yet? It's ridiculous.>>483735391>ClansIs this going to offer anything new compared to Mercs? Did Mercs not have any clan stuff? Do mods not add all that in anyway?
>>483750527So modded EU is better than modded XCOM2?Can you give me a few examples? I'm sure you understand it's hard to go of what just one random person on a anonymous tiawanese fishing forum says.
>>483739202re: this shit, just finished itthe mission story was fun, but the fight starts so quickly that I think you would have to at least start the mission story if you want to do anything except snipe him or throw an explosive at himit seems like the devs enjoyed themselves with this one, I guess cubby jr.'s ban on fun must have made it into the licensing agreement for the bond game
>>483736418Im trying a single team approach with Ding's dreamteam(him price, loiselle, and weber). I got all the way to the back area after difusing the first 2 bombs the first time, but now the warehouse bomb room is giving me a lot of trouble because of the catwalk guys. I went the route through the upper offices from the machinery room stairs that first time and was able to climb the ladder and take them all out from that highest point, but now I get shot at the top of the ladder so its kinda just not worth it to hope I get good patrol rng to climb it. Been having better luck smooth opening the doors downstairs and smooth peak shotting them, but its still kinda iffy.
>>483751654Reasons this random person likes X1 more than X2:>In XCOM 1 you defend Earth from an ayylium invasion, the classic setup. In XCOM 2, the bad ending from XCOM 1 is canon and the ayyliums have already taken over, so you run a resistance movement. The problem is that this is completely half-assed and is not interesting at all. Your resistance movement are goody-two-shoes that never do terrorism or anything, it's extremely clean and everything is treated with the vibe of a saturday morning cartoon (SPECIALLY when you take into account the Chosen DLC, they are basically villains of the week).>XCOM 1 has a much stronger horror atmosphere, and the tone is less "heroes saving the day" and more "holyshitholyshitholyshit">While XCOM 2 adds some welcome Quality of Life, it also simplifies the hell out of many mechanics to be more "approachable". For example one of the most busted things in the game: Overwatch. In XCOM 1, when a spooky ayy pops their head up and moves, all the jumpy nervous soldiers will shoot at whatever they saw move immediately. This is still very powerful, but not as broken as in XCOM 2. In that one, your soldiers are actually robots who are coordinated to wait miliseconds for their turn in the overwatch. Example: ayy moves, soldier 1 shoots and misses, then soldier 2 shoots and kills the alien. Soldier 3 now has the robot-like precision to not waste their shot, because in these miliseconds that passed they realized they weren't needed. This frees them up to shoot another ayy.>Many of the QoL features that XCOM 2 added are available as mods for XCOM 1>Long War 1 was much better designed than Long War 2
>>483752634OH AND HOW COULD I FORGETThe dynamic with Meld acting as bait for the player is genius. It forces players that want to get the sweet reward to be more agressive, but risk more. It also allows players that want to be cautious to not do that, instead of being nagged by mission timers. And MECs in Long War 1 are a whole other roster of classes you can build and customize + the biomods are great as wellAlso Eggsalt. Human enemies that are fun to fight and provide a cool switch up from just ayys.
>>483752634>In XCOM 2, the bad ending from XCOM 1 is canon and the ayyliums have already taken over, so you run a resistance movement>Your resistance movement are goody-two-shoes that never do terrorism or anything, it's extremely cleanOkay that setting does put me off. Sounds lame as hell. That alone is enough to make me rather play 1.>>483753078>>483753078>The dynamic with Meld acting as bait for the player is genius>MECsI'm not sure what that means but> players that want to be cautious to not do that, instead of being nagged by mission timers.I do like the sound of that. I normally take a very slow methodical approach in these kinds of games. So not having a timer I have to worry about as i inch my units across the map sounds nice.How bad would it be if I just started out with Long War?
>>483753693>I'm not sure what that meansSorry I should've explainedThe Enemy Within expansion (which like I said is what you should be using, since it's the base game + more stuff) adds a resource called Meld. It's this orange goopy-alien stuff that you can research and then use to genetically modify your soldiers or create fucking mechs, it's sick as hell. The MEC pilots need to be amputated too (don't think too much about the moral implications of that, it's just kinda badass). You can get Meld passively through raiding supply ships and scraps from killing ayys, but a big boost is in the form of canisters that appear on mission maps. Those are timed, so you if you want to get them you gotta rush, but since they're completely optional you can just be a slowpoke if you want. The downside is, no sweet meld.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hlUM4VwLQzI>How bad would it be if I just started out with Long War?It wouldn't be a horrible experience, but it would certainly be a bit of a bumpy road since you don't even know the enemies, how the air game works, or how the campaign will flow. I would still recommend at least playing a bit of vanilla first. If you can handle looking more stuff up, then start with Long War 1.0 on normal difficulty (don't even think about higher than that to start)https://www.nexusmods.com/xcom/mods/88The wiki will be your friendhttps://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php/Long_War
>>483754525What if I actually HAVE played EU but it's been 10+ years and I don't even remember if I finished a campaign?
>>483755140Eh, you're probably good to go thenAlso I should mention most mods for XEW are made to be compatible with Long War (since it's the most popular one)There's a couple big remakes of Long War (like Long War Rebalanced), but I'm not a fan of those. Lots of cool smaller mods though
>>483753078>webmnice
>>483755504Also another cool thing about LW is that it is very customizable. You can just go into the .ini files and tweak things if you don't like them.

guys since there's some r6 oldheads lurking, if a friend and I buy R6 3 deluxe or whatever on steam, could one of us host a game and play coop pretty hassle free?
>>483757018We have RS3 with all the expansions in the /&tg/ repo. But if you want to have it on Steam sure. Just mind that Steam doesn't include the Iron Wrath free expansion so you'll have to get that on your ownYeah there's still people that play RS3 with custom maps and everything, both coop and PvPit's just installing a couple of patches and a map pack and you're done. https://rentry.org/tactical#rainbow-six-3-raven-shield-2003-sp-and-mp-pve-freeThere are even some that still play RS1 and RS2 through the Black Ops fanmod (which squishes them together and you can also download from the rentry)
In a similar vein, Ghost Recon as sold in Steam and GOG don't include their expansions either. In Steam you have to buy them separately and in GOG they don't sell them at all.Fortunately, /&tg/ repo has them bundled together neatly with the game.

Not sure if there's any patch to fix that, only solution I could find was running a dedicated server instead and launching the game a second time to connect to it.

>>483826257Tactics?I don't really know The closest thing to sex in the newer xcom games is Vahlen "probing" certain aliens and Viper brothels in chimera squad which we all know isn't canon.

>>483841595haha
Thats one scary looking window
>>483826257The bit at the pelvis is just a frameAnyway, sending soldiers to the 'chop shop' is something I like to do when they're already wounded and FUBAR'd from some mission where they would take an insane amount of time to recover. Except for the first couple, those tend to be heroic volunteers because MEC rushes are fun
>>483843329
>>483843329How does she make doodie
>>483843646very carefully
>>483842385that's the one overlooking the hostages rightyeah probably a bad idea to peek there or they'll just shoot everybody
>>483843329>>483843562look at that cripple, damn that's disgusting!
>>483807071it's a thorough overhaul, not just a few tweaksthe most important thing you have to understand about long dong is that it makes the aliens have their own strategic game. in the vanilla game, they have preset missions, but in long dong they actually have a game plan going in and you can thwart them if you play well. they have to abduct people to get research points, they have to harvest resources to field more troops, etc. this makes things like intercepting their transports/harvesters/etc actually matter. there's lots of interest dynamics going on there that are completely absent in the base gameit also adds a whole new set of classes for MEC troopers. All of the classes get their own subclass as MECs (Scouts become Pathfinder MECs for example).Like someone else mentioned, you also have different tiers of aliens and leaders as well. As the ayys get deeper into their tech tree, they unlock more abilities and stats on their guys as well. There's also new equipment options
>>483847146oh also, whenever a country leaves the XCOM council you can get them back by finding and raiding the alien base in that regionso alien base assaults reward you with liberating countries

>>483848651Finally got that first hostage by the spawn. It was cheesy as hell(peak sniped the guy overlooking the floor, then shot the "What was that" guy in the back through the window when he went to go check what Red was doing. Had the plan afterwards to fast and ended up dying to rush and keep up, but set a regroup gocode and hostage dropoff afterwards so I can use Gold to safely clear their advances on the main building with the 2 hostage room. Think going for the 2 hostage room first might be the better plan since the scary window has a guy preventing me from hitting the backdoor to the 1 hostage room. Oddly enough, suppressed sniping a dude in the hostage room doesnt get the hostages killed. Think the AI has to be alerted alerted, like see his buddy return fire, to get the hostages executed.>>483858108Theres a lot of parts where Im just trying to clip someone/shoot legs under cars so the huge cartridge is nice.>>483859086Nope

>>483874742good christ I forgot how retarded the physics in squad are.
I am thoroughly convinced that coyote's mission pack is impossible unless there's a AI overhaul mod that actually overhauls your lancemates & doesn't just make them into mouth breathing retardsNo matter what orders/commands I give them they literally do their own thing & ignore whatever I tell themWhen I tell them to go to the dropship & wait there they fucking travel back the entire map to meetup with meRandom spawning 1000 vtols to fuck you over for no reasonIdk what I'm supposed to do, I keep getting worn down by the bullet sponge turrets more than the goddamn mechs that I'm fighting
Oh wow, Ive played both way back, but man... GR is waaaay easier than RB6 3.

>>483877734>>483878896are you also using EasyAim?>COYOTE MISSIONS: Let my mod overwrite coyote's mod unless you want my setup evasion and to hit charts to potentially give odd results. If you use EasyAim modification (if my default difficulty is too hard) make sure it overwrites the AIMod2, that file restores the default game hit percentages.

>>483867000>door kickers 2 getting multiple updatesDevs have confirmed 1.0 is scheduled for by the end of the year. Will bring Steam Workshop integration for all mods, Doctrine progression system, campaigns, RMG overhaul, new weapons/gear. Will likely not include the final 4th vanilla unit (Delta) planned.We'll wait a few months after for all the major mods to transition over to workshop and the new systems.
I'm thinking of getting Hell Let Loose or Reforger from the sale. You anons find anything else? Any recommendations?

New quasimorph update is out. Unfortunately it added persistent repair costs and REMOVED base classes so you have to equip every single dude from scratch if you die, and if you live you have to repair everything. So annoying
>>483906809what do you mean them, you are on 4chan, you are a channer. just a cowardly one
>>483909815A coward that likes to avoid ERP and other cringe I don't need in my free time.

What is it with MGS people in here lately, especially all the first timer?
>>483919294I havent really noticed it
>>483919398Hard to miss when you're actually active. I guess it's down to the dog shit PC/current gen ports, which I find weird as hell but oh well.
>>483919845I have to admit I've only played 1 and 2, and rhose were the PS3 versions.
>>483919845Yeah, Im kinda on-again/off-again in /&tg/. I know theres(was?) that one hardcore MGS5 anon, but last MGS post I've see was during the blogpostjing kerfuffle and I posted something about someone should blogpost MGS3 so I could vicariously play it through them, but they never did so I'm playing it. I dont expect the camo mechanic to have aged well, but we'll see.
>>483918204>mfw listening to the Boss's intro codec convo again
>>483921170Said MGS5 guy is just a random autist spamming to annoy people, he also posted Survive while he was going.
>Spend a day in cdda making a folding bike from scratch>Go to subway and unfold it>Prepare for epic adventure>Rails block the bikeI got this far and im going to have to fold it up again.
>>483921170>I dont expect the camo mechanic to have aged well, but we'll see.its relatively simple but that's its strong suitthe game's very transparent about how effective your camo is (compare that to MGSV, which gives you no info about your camo index), and while light level and environmental stuff like tall grass does effect it, otherwise it's fairly binary "if you're using the right camo + facepaint you're good"ofc you also have the special camos that may not be the best choice for camouflage but have other effects that make them worth using

>>483932985figured it out to get the steam stuff, how should I order the mods?
>>483933674well the first thing to check is if any of your mods have conflictsFor example, Coyote's conflicts with TTRulez, so you need to put the one that will "have the final say" afterwards. So, Coyote's should be lower
>breakpoints gameplay and customization is better>wildlands story and setting is way better, but gameplay is a bit less polished and enemy corpses disappear as soon as you turn around which pisses me the fuck offfor fucks sake

>"low" car spawn rate
>>483552428Its so fucking buggy, holy shit. Guess I'll come back in 2-4 weeks until the most basic shit is fixed again.
Ground Branch's AI is definitely too aggressive now. There should be location specific triggers that mostly keep the AI in buildings the player has to go into. It's unrealistic for 10 blokes to donkytard their way out of a fortified position in order to run right towards a possible shooter.
Watching this was kinda weird. Like, its a real good cool lil video, but man. How much did it cost? What does it really bring to the videogame besides "lol, 007 intro movie" because Kojima wanted one? I definitally would say that the game is better with it than without, but I cannot imagine something like that getting greenlit by a studio today.
>>483967452Why do you assume it costs more then an average action mo-cap cg from the rest of the game?
>>483968516Why do you assume that I assume that?
>>483947221dooooooooood rpg elements haha lol>people hate it in drovedooooooood we remove the rpg elements fucking the entire balance of the game hahaBreakpoint, just like AssCreed, and many others are prove that big corps have no idea what make their games liked. Can't have games be different, but need every single open world game to be exactly the fucking same.>>483967452jesus christ shut up with your dog shit opinions already newfag zoomer. I'm not even joking, just shut up. you're just as bad as the mgs5 faggot or arm* shitter.
>>483969286Cos you ask how much did it cost? Idk, probably less then stuff you already saw in the game. There's nothing preventing studios nowadays from making one aside from creative bankruptcy.
>>483969497Mmmm, no. I dont think I will, mr grumpy-grumps
>need a crowbar to remove barricade in survivor building>walk into this 2 minutes of crawling laterthe game knew
>>483943456Look fine enough?
>>483947221Ghost Recon(2001) is pretty fun. Try that one.
