I was thinking about reflex mode today after I got into some close calls, and what that would look like to somebody with a different viewpoint. I wish there was a way to record that, like watching from a distance as three guys get an eye on Snake, but he just quick draws and pistol snipes them all from 100 feet away in a fraction of a second. It's gotta be wild to see. I also took a few days off from the game while getting sucked into replaying Tears of the Kingdom, and it's pretty funny how quickly your brain gets trained for different mechanics. I went through that mission where you recover/destroy four walker gears, but the whole thing just had me reflexively wanting to free climb up the side of the outpost or the giant rock outcropping the camp is next to. I know you can get anywhere you need to in the game, I'm just tickled by the idea of Snake spidering his way straight up the side instead of finding all the traversable ledges.

It's gotta be wild to see. This happened to me when Warframe released its first open world area in 2017 after I'd been playing the hell out of MGSV. I just really wanted to go prone and snipe things, but it's a much faster moving game and the enemies don't have the same kind of search patterns since you're expected to do something like turn invisible and murder everyone.

It's gotta be wild to see. The US Embassy sequence in the first Bourne movie comes to mind as what it's like to have Snake infiltrate your compound, TBH. Not as cool as the original one. I'm still kicking myself for not buying the original UCS Star Destroyer. I have the original X-Wing and Tie-IN but never pulled the trigger on the SD.

https://i.imgur.com/6adBNN5.mp4 Finally got to the high point of the game, it's all downhill from here  Also, I decided to try a couple FOB raids for some reason, but both of them were completely empty - nobody defending, and no resources or weapons to fulton away for my own base. I get it for the first one, it was just some rando in the list of intro level people you can attack. But the second one was in one of the challenge menus, they had actual victories and a point value listed, so I figured they'd have something set up. Kind of confusing, I don't know if I'll bother trying any more since I've happily ignored the online component for 99.5% of the time I've played the game.

It’s only worth doing if you want to get the big crazy online guns that you really don’t need.

That being said the silenced nonlethal shotgun is hilarious to use in the base game.

Towards the end I got sick of fultoning everything not bolted down and bought that really powerful sniper rifle to exterminate every living thing halfway across the map.

The FOB events on PS4 were working for me earlier this year, I'm guessing this is PC though

When I log in like once every 4 to 7 months my FOB defense score has moved up and down but I think that's relative to other people and not because of anything that has actually happened on my own base. I don't think I've ever defended a base from an attack on PC.

Captain Hygiene posted:https://i.imgur.com/6adBNN5.mp4 those were player fobs. you get matched with people around your level of development and iirc it prefers to match you with people who are actually active but cant always. if you actually do grind fobs (or just do fob stuff in post game) you will run into ones populated by npcs/defenses (and with loot). fob stuff opens up a lot through the later part of the game. also once you have some number of fob raids under your belt I think you get preferentially pooled with other active players. my last playthrough (last year) i did a bunch of fob raids and got raided frequently. it's fun.

Crazy OP, at least when everyone's not body armored up. https://i.imgur.com/eiKJNlJ.mp4 I love the fact that it sounds like the corny cliche sound effect for punching someone in the face, just from long range

It's such a juggling act to get the birthday cutscene with every single character present but it's worth it for Quiet lighting Boss's cigar with a sniper round.

I've been rewatching Star Trek Enterprise for the first time in forever, for whatever reason, and I just had the weirdest moment. One of the early characters is a mysterious future guy who occasionally steps in to meddle with the past as part of a temporal war. That's all whatever, but I really sat up when I noticed the voice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qGGvhdiQREg&t=64s Yep, it's Skull Face himself! If nothing else, that actor managed to sound exactly as distinctive over a good 15 years, I can easily imagine any one of his monologues transitioning right into "I'll see you in hell...'Boss'".

I like him as the Jem'Hadar in DS9 who beats up Worf and then decides to die because he can kill Worf but he can't defeat him.

That's fun, I'm not surprised since they like to use a lot of repeat actors over there. I haven't watched that much classic era Trek since I would've recognized him, I'll have to track that down too.

I'd recommend watching In Purgatory's Shadow first since it's a two-parter.
