    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    I was explaining the primary use case for the newfangled explosive rounds at the time. If normal full metal jacket ammo worked fine, it would make no sense to invent something more expensive to do the same thing. That's your opinion and you're welcome to have it. Grenades work through either...

    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    The Hague convention does not ban use of such ammo against material and materiel. And zeppelins do not explode when shot with regular ammo. You can riddle them with bullets, but the likelihood of them leaking enough to crash is slim. That's why they used tracers (to ignite the gas) or explosive...

    Arcanum Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura

    I hold FO1 & 2 in higher regard, but it's probably the third best RPG ever made. A bit easy to min-max though. Euhm, you do realize that the title basically means "mysteries of steampunk and magic" right? What's wrong with that? Arcanum alone would mean jack shit. That's like naming your game...

    Yes, I'm sure the NRA ordered the hit on the police officer.

    (If you're going for suppressed + light,) the lack of HK Mark 23 is disturbing. ;)

    Chosen One Pixel Art

    Nice! Do you have more stuff to show us? Only thing I'd change would be his pinky. Seems a bit odd, but pixel art obviously isn't easy.

    Observer - Cyberpunk Silent Hill

    As a big Blade Runner fan, I bought it at release. I think it was certainly worth the cost, but the replayability is rather small. I wish they had cut down a bit on some of the mindscape stuff as some of those sections became quite lengthy, but overall I quite liked it. (That said, don't be...

    STAR WARS: THE LAST JEDI (HUGE SPOILERS EVERYWHERE)

    The writer/director once commented that nothing had been written about Rey, Snoke, etc when he got the script. None of the major characters had their backgrounds fully fleshed out before they wrapped the first movie. There was no long term master plan for these 3 installments. So because there...

    Gun Control

    You mean humor and misinformation? He calls them tanks, but they are APCs & MRAPs.They are not the same thing. He shows a pic of a beat cops and compares it to a riot cop. You really want to compare that? do I need to point out that real riot cops of the original picture's era meant sending...

    Tannenberg Early Access. Loving it.

    Gun Control

    In an interesting turn of events, I just read that the guy giving the commands in the video is in fact NOT the guy that shot the guy. It's his partner (another sergeant). I'm not sure that's true though.

    Gun Control

    How is that an insult? I merely explained the tactical and legal realities. I think you're confusing my explanation with an apology. I do not endorse this. I merely understand the reasoning of it. That's quite naive. Cops are just people that are empowered to do a job. They make mistakes, can...

    Gun Control

    American cops get shot by the dozens each year. They are trained & drilled to shoot when they see someone reach for their waist. The reason is simple, a person drawing tends to shoot quicker than someone reacting, so if you wait to identify what the person is pulling out of his belt, you end up...

    Gun Control

    The cop made a number of retarded mistakes, gave unclear/contradictory instructions and was too triggerhappy, even by american standards. However, there is no way he could know the guy was not pulling a firearm. Therefor the shoot was justified (by american norms). It's sad, but that's how the...

    Odd Gods [Isometric Turn-Based Tactical RPG in Development]

    I'm not a fan of Early Access. It's basically a paid beta. But a lot of devs seem to be taking that path to receive early funding that way.

    Odd Gods [Isometric Turn-Based Tactical RPG in Development]

    I'm not sold on the simultaneous combat, but the game sure is looking promising. Any insight on the upcoming milestones? And how will the game be released? Are you looking at Steam & Early Access or will you go an alternative route?

    The Guns and Ammo Thread

    Second outing with the pistol went great. I can only conclude that the issues with shooting low left were all user induced (which we pretty much already knew, but it's nice to see it confirmed). In the first 100 slow fire shots of today's shooting session, I only pulled one shot low left...

    Are Per's Fallout guides gone for good?

    You can use https://web.archive.org/ to look at the cached version. I'll ask Per about what's up with it.
