Putting a scope on the assault rifle switches it to single shot mode and ramps the damage. It basically replaces the dmr thing from the first game.

Am I doing something wrong, or is the Maschinenpistole just a lot weaker than every other gun? I remember pretty much having to mag-dump for one or two kills in the courthouse.

The damage falloff seems really steep on that gun. You have to use it at really close range. It's basically a shotgun but worse.

It's good at close-medium range against regular unarmored dudes, especially if you don't have the double magazine upgrade for the assault rifle yet. But yeah, the shotgun and the assault rifle are better in most cases.

I could take or leave the end credits cover? I mean, I guess getting the Twisted Sister version would have cost too much. Putting the fact that I am a colossal idiot aside, how do you start episode zero of The Freedom Chronicles DLC? SwissArmyDruid fucked around with this message at 14:16 on Oct 30, 2017 |

So far I've found the Constictor Harness, and the Ram shackles, and really like the combo of the two. You can snake around the map and pick every normal guy off, then bum rush the remaining big guys arms off. I'm going to look for the Go Go Gadget legs after work today.

How do the extendo legs takedowns work? I guess I've not the only person having trouble since the trophy for doing one has a 0.4% completion rate currently.

I got it by getting up behind a guy who was on a platform facing away from the edge and killing him from behind, in one of the uberkommando missions.

smg with suppressor allows you to deal damage fast enough to blow up the flying drones or the big guys after sabotaging them with melee and "stealth" kill them before they turn around and alert everyone and that may be its only use

I prefer to stealth-kill the big guys by cutting their fuel lines from behind, then shooting the fuel trail with a suppressed Pistole to blow them up. I'm annoyed that exploding their fuel tanks with direct fire usually won't kill them, though.

Thanks, this is what did it, just killing a few guys in my left and throwing a grenade down the stairs every once in a while. I think it was the drones killing me more than anything and the pillar solved that.

I have a 3770k at 4.2GHz (should be near identical performance) on a 1080 @ 4k resolution with all the settings maxed and getting 100+ FPS.

Okay, question: I'm at the penultimate story level, and I haven't done any of the Oberkommando missions yet despite cracking a number of enigma codes. Will I have time to do these missions before the last level, or are they all relegated to post-story content? I wanted to hunt down some Nazis before the New Orleans mission but the game wouldn't let me.

And yes, apparently they can all be done either postgame or before.

Man I don't know how Wyatt can even come close to topping Fergus. Is his stuff interesting or funny? Because man is Fergus a great character and giving him a robot arm that he can't fully control is constantly the funniest poo poo. The scene of him trying to eat the cookie that was in the E3 trailer was still just as funny seeing it in game. I went with Fergus in the first game too and I can't imagine going the Wyatt route. ILU Fergus, #1 Fergus Fan here. Also I find Sigrund an interesting character because on one hand I'm like "stop being mean to her!" when everyone but Bombate is a jerk to her but on the other hand I also don't fully trust her and I'm expecting her to turn on us at some point. Also do the level layouts change depending on which body upgrade you picked? Because I went with the extendolegs and the next major level I did had 100% mandatory extendoleg sections that you couldn't get past without them.

Also, while I like dualwielding a lot, one thing that I'd generally forgotten that a recent accidental misclick and subsequent murdering spree reminded me: the headshot perk increase your damage when aiming down the sights, which means a singled schockhammer can kill out to a frankly absurd range if you aim it for the +50% damage.

There might be some collectibles that need one contraption or another, I'm not sure, but mission barriers will always be accessible in all three ways. And then sometimes you can just use the door like a scrub.

 The call from Anya in the middle of the mission where she tells me that the pregnancy might be making her "excited" while she's killing Nazis. And then Fergus reveals she's on everyone's frequency and she's like "Oh god is everyone on here?" and Grace, Bombate and Max Hauss all confirm yes.Amazing. The character moments in this game are so good

I just got home from a trip and got my package with my Terror Billy and it's great.  The instruction booklet folds out to a mini Blitzmensch poster, where we learn that Uncle Sam in a tank was named "Uncle Samson" and the baseball player is "Grand Slam." Now I want to know all the rogues' names. I am looking forward to a night of complete Nazi killing once I get home from work.I would say if your figure has a flaw (bad eyes like one poster had, mine looked OK) contact Bethesda for a replacement. I agree with the minimal posing but I'm not going to be playing with the figure, so...  And yes, I did put on the bomber jacket. While I like the aesthetic of the yellow jacket, the bomber jacket just looks so much nicer.

There is a deck schematic of the Eva's Hammer in the TNO artbook. It's stupidly large but I don't know how large nuclear subs generally are.

Also, I think the Eva's Hammer actually got bigger between games given how the whole ship has been redesigned and the bridge looks nothing like it did in TNO.

Are you loving kidding me with this audition stuff? I was worried there for a little bit that this game wasn't going to be able to be as ridiculous as the first one, I'm glad I keep getting proven wrong ever since the farm bit. Also I LOVED the scene in New Orleans where you and the preacher get drunk. What an amazingly well done scene with the way the music was used and stuff

Aight, I milked some performance out of my creaky old PC with new drivers and lots of low graphics settings! I'm still running an i5-2500k and a GTX 760: would a new GPU get me a stable 60 on moderate settings, or should I just hold off for an entirely new rig? If I'm CPU bottlenecked I'll settle for playing in PS2 mode.
