Yeah but usually you can check the previous owner stuff, in this case it's just weird all around, in case you were replying to me.









Maybe it's nothing but the accompanying haunting made it feel important somehow.

Code for the pre-order DLC (Luden avatar, gold cosmetics, dynamic theme) if anyone wants it.

Also, while regular Monster is Satan's Piss, the salted caramel flavor Java Monster is surprisingly decent and has substantially less sugar than other canned coffee drinks (Starbucks I'm looking at you)

Isn’t there some way to fill spent blood grenades with blood bags? Or am I imagining that?

You mean "used" grenades? Those you have to drop or recycle.

You're probably thinking of the fact that grenades don't actually take blood until you toss them, at which point they take said blood from your bags first, health second.

I assume you’re throwing the grenades and left holding an empty grenade container, therefore no

I had a question about this Did anyone try going to the lake and throwing it in there immediately after reading the description on the tag, without stopping to meet with Fragile about it first? I'm curious if the game will let you skip to that part, and if it changes the following scene with her.
You can yeah, I don't know what it looks like if you do it the right way, but you do still get the Fragile backstory scene.

Ah, yeah. I actually didn't notice that the grenades actively used blood, because it's been such a non issue. I thought I read that you could refill the containers but I misunderstood.

Everyone is saying how easy the "boss fights" are but the first couple times they happened I was too busy making GBS threads my pants to be like "heh, you're not so hard, video game!"

E: wonder how this game deals with saving and reloading as regards building stuff. Is it uploaded to ~the cloud~ as soon as you make it, and if you reload your game it stays there?

Is there anything to do with destroyed/used up containers other than recycle them? It feels like you get so little resources back it's hardly worth the effort. Am I missing something?

There are loads of weird little things like that. This hasn't happened in my game yet, but I've seen footage where someone who was getting caught by BTs saw a silhouette and gamer tag of another player being pulled into the goo.

Probably don't need to spoiler that but I'd rather err on the side of caution

Edit: I accidentally hit the touch pad earlier and he goes "My name is Sam" and I heard an echo say "my name is Sam too" :stare:

I'd love to read up on some of the science behind why we think game worlds are larger than they actually are. Going from one settlement to the other in this doesn't feel like I'm actually going hundreds of miles, but it equally doesn't feel like it's the distance from my front door to the gas station a block away. And it definitely doesn't LOOK that short a distance.

I tried to solve this non-violently, but I only had 1 stack of blood grenades on hand going into it, they blew up the soldiers but I didn't get a chance to see what they did on Mads' character. Punching him would just result in him falling over at some point and getting back up, the skeletons as well.

Got to a mission in chapter 3 where I get sent to steal a package back from some MULEs. Turns out it's right in the middle of their base, next to a tent just FULL of resource packages and, interestingly, two trucks. Welp, loaded a truck to capacity with ceramics and metals and drove it back to town and dumped it into a road (jeez, a full truckload barely moved the meter!). And now I guess I'm a truck driver instead of a runner, because I haven't seen any reason to leave my sweet offroad 4x4 and I'm able to cram tons of lost cargo and resources in the back with basically no downside. I guess I have to carry a couple extra PCCs to make generators when it runs out of gas?

I get the feeling I'm missing something when it comes to the MULEs. I get scanned without fail once I start walking around in their territory, and then they just hunt me down from where ever? I take off running and I'm pretty sure none of them have line of sight on me, but they always seem to know where I am. I dropped one of those fake cargo packages once and they still came after me. And then the combat happens, and I just sorta absorb a blow and beat them down by mashing square, or if I want to get fancy I can grab one of their packages and beat the others over the head with it. I just got the bola gun and it's kinda neat but it's the same thing, I can play with it but it's not really any better than just mashing square.

If you want to sneak into mule camps drop all of your materials and delivery cargo outside their scan ring. Equipment doesn't ping back, they just want your deliverables.

Sneaking into a mule camp is tough because their alarms have pretty good range. Gotta find a spot where there’s a hole in their fence.
