LazyMaybe posted:it's already at 48.5% So that leaves 1.03 billion. At about 8 hours elapsed, and looking at the current bug diver count of about 170,000 divers that's over 750 bugs per diver per hour... Less so if the hour count isn't quite right but that's still hundreds. Even if with a higher assumption of bug divers at 300k that'd still be a few hundred bugs per hour per diver.

Would like to see how long this order would take if we didn't have the rocket launching mission type literally allowing us to feed bugs into the airstrike grinder.

It's pretty easy to get 300-400+ kills per drop playing normally, so I can definitely imagine some wild numbers from people actually trying to get kills.

With 300k players, it would take about 20 missions each averaging 333 bugs per mission. I don't believe we've legit hit half of that in like 12 hours lol

Are there ICBM missions on bug worlds? Maybe it's counting those.

The Estanu defense is gonna be secured in record time too, meaning all the bug divers are gonna head straight for Oshaune because gently caress Hellmire. Which also means we're probably gonna piss off whatever's on that hive world of Omicron soon.

How do rewards for Major Orders work, do you miss out if it's completed before you even log on lolSlung Blade posted:Fortunately I haven't had that issue. I am apparently very stupid and get into (I'd consider) way too close combat with a troop of berserkers so I needed to get good with quick shot panic attacks against those bastards. Hell yeah, it was a great game. Crazy to be playing teams of like 30 vs 30 in 2002. Me and a couple buddies in high school would get in some pre-Ventrilo voicechat and operate as a small zpecial forces squad amidst the chaos.

Pretty sure once we win this major order too soon they'll do another round with more ambitious targets. All they need is a writer to whip up a cheeky war update.

I think most everyone who wants to play is in the discord already but if you are still stuck playing with pubs you should come play with us. We have multiple squads going at pretty much all times of the day going at whatever difficulty you wanna play at. https://discord.gg/kKr47PXT4W

One other theory that popped up is kill credit is shared like Personal Orders, so total squad kills at the end of a mission are being multiplied for each member of the squad.

Sindai posted:I noticed when using the fire breaker that I was definitely getting kill credit for everything I set on fire if other people killed them, so at least everyone who contributes to a kill gets credit. What I'm saying is like, you know how you get Personal Order credit for kills with poo poo like AP Mines or the AMR even when they're not your kills? I think it's doing that for Terminid kills in general. Hypothetically, if P1 gets 200 kills and P2 gets 150 kills, the game could be considering both players to have gotten 350 kills each and is incrementing the MO tally by 700.

Slung Blade posted:I kinda skipped the anti material rifle in my early days, going right for the auto cannon, which is great and I still love. I had heard about the AMR sight issue, and I was mostly fighting bugs then, which the AMR isn't great for, regardless. yeah AMR is great on robots and that's with a controller, it would be a delete key with mouse and keyboard.

If this is the case, we're "only" moving at a max of quadruple speed, so we'd easily complete it under correct mathing. Sidenote, doesn't matter here, but Personal Orders don't count your teammate kills if they do not currently have the order. Which was a problem when i joined my friends after they already had the 75 mortar kills
