DOWN JACKET FETISH posted:yasds are the fault of the player. Hence the s except they don't lurk, they sit on the ground until activated and because they are grey and its really dark they just look like buildings. don't pretend like you saw them on your first run of that level. once you saw the recon lines lighting up that's when it hit you that you hosed up.

I'm seriously in love with this game and thanks to the kick rear end devs for being radical dudes. It was my GOTY and believe me when I say I'm seriously harsh when taking into account my GOTYs. The game reminds me of 90s DOS TECHNOLOGY! gems like Crusader. Seriously a great game and the fact that it runs on toasters is pure sex. The Kraken or whatever that 30mm lead hose is called is one of the most satisfying guns I've ever used in a video game in a long time. Pure ecstasy to imagine how terrifying it must be for the foot soldiers when headlights appear through the fog, followed by a deafening roar of an array of combustion engines accompanied by the cracking of trees until the 4 story mobile gun tower that is the Treehouse's silhouette looms in the distance, with the ear shattering VRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRT and the loyalist armor support is just vapor on the trail of a sheet of depleted uranium.

one of my most favorite things about this game is the lore and intel entries because I fuckin' love me some worldbuilding I was just rereading some of the pilots and uh quote:Nemi put the bottle down when he settled in a cosmopolitan habitat to produce a wife and children. When they were killed, finished by an occurrence of redlung during their gestation was this guy cloning himself a wife before he got loving mindjacked

Just go maximum technical and constantly stay moving and spraying .50 cal rounds at everything. fork with Confessor and Bully. the Bully is stupidgood against armour and the Confessor splats out shieldbusting rounds at a fair clip

pro tip: you can move while crouched to receive a damage reduction bonus while staying mobile! simply fit your rat king with dual Königs and away you go

How the gently caress do you move while crouched because when I toggle that on I'm not going anywhere. Or are you talking how while crouched, dual giant miniguns will slowly scoot you back several grid tiles worth if you unload all the ammo? (Knife Chase chat. I was paranoid too but apparently I was better at it than I remember? When the gently caress did I beat that mission with the Mongoose? I was convinced my beating it with the Fork was because it had EMP to explain how I killed all the Zeds, but you don't get special weapons for that mission? Why cant I be good at this game when I will remember it?) Section Z fucked around with this message at 02:26 on Jan 12, 2017 |

Boy, every option for Void Repeats sucks huh. The Broodmare's almost good in it but its weapons apparently take years to blow up the guns or anything that's not a robot.

I had not realized that I could have the Maximum Technical Experience until now! Also, the double M2's on the nickel is nicely powerful, efficient, and the Nickel gets absolutely destroyed on the quick once it runs out of shield.

I'm finally getting the hang of small mechs with the dual laser Fork build someone posted earlier. Being able to kill stuff at high difficulties without waking up the whole level is refreshing. So is being able to escape from a melee and pick off stragglers before stealth charging the big mechs and firing salvos into their butts.And best of all, getting a $50 million payday is a lot quicker what with not having to survive ~20 levels.

heavy mount idea: Heavy Manipulator just... an arm with an enormous hand on it. grab smaller vehicles! crush them in your enormous metal fist! use them as a flail! spin around and throw them at your enemies like a discus!

turns out that one suggestion to take the nickel with dual .50 cals was actually good advice. :edit: atomicthumbs, does fan games count for an escape velocity game?  http://store.steampowered.com/app/404410/?snr=1_5_9__205:edit2: I still don't know what transaction fees after a run in brigador are from.

atomicthumbs posted:Dual anything is so much fun. Try dual Banshees. Everything melts. Dual weapons can also make something you find sorta lackluster into a fun run. Like dual broilers. Just one Broiler has always felt almost but not quite punchy enough for me, I'm constantly almost but not quite killing or finishing something off, whether they had that much health or their tint model meant one too many beams missed them. But a pair of them on a Buckler and suddenly I'm double barreled stealth laser shotgun murder machine. Though it can be a bit awkward trying to safely attract attention of only parts of a blob with such a quiet gun that doesn't have full screen range.
