How good, mediocre or plain bad will Deadfire be?
ShadySands replied to IndiraLightfoot's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Isn't that the name of Kevin James' love interest in Hitch? I guess that was Allegra Cole and not Allegra Clark. Who knew you could find these things on the internet?

What did you do today?
Thinking of getting back into martial arts. I did it quite a bit in the military and for a little while after. I only stopped because I couldn't fit it into my schedule anymore. All the places near me seem more traditional and focused but all my experience is in mixed martial arts so it's a little intimidating starting anew. Just need to pick one and try it I guess.

The Movie Thread Returns
I just wanted to add that I didn't think the movie was bad or anything but that the stakes are so obviously artificial that there's no investment. There are a lot of cool scenes and moments but not a lot of point to it all.

Who is playing on the 8th?
ShadySands replied to daven's topic in Pillars of Eternity II: Deadfire General Discussion (NO SPOILERS)Might need to take the 8th and probably the rest of the week off

Battletech
There are several weapon balance mods on the Nexus and www.reddit.com/r/BattleTechMods/ The files are are plain text so it's easy to make minor tweaks. Dunno if I'll ever get it the point where everything feels just right

I didn't back it at a high enough level but that's probably for the best. With BattleTech now and Deadfire in two a weeks.

Black Knights are in the game, 2 variants if I'm not mistaken, but I haven't come across one yet.

What did you do today?
I'd say just wear the earplugs A buddy of mine from the military participates in similar events all the time and he didn't like wearing them either but never found anything that worked better. In the end he hated water in his ears more than earplugs

I got some + medium laser that does like 35 damage for 1 ton and 1 slot. I feel like the + stuff is often better than the LosTech stuff. Can't wait to get some +++ LRMs

The Movie Thread Returns
I've got tickets to go see it in a few hours I didn't love it. I think it's the first Marvel movie that I've had zero desire to rewatch.

No idea. We do use metric for scientific stuff.

What did you do today?
Replaced my faulty ChromeCast with a Roku Stick + and my wife is loving the fact that it has its own remote in addition to an app that can control it. She's been dragging her feet to install stuff on her phone because she forgot the password.

I'm just cheap I really should get a few more for the rotation just in case and even though I've already lowered the time to heal

Battletech
I think by the time I got to 2 skulls I had 2 or 3 heavies. I can't imagine trying to do with light and mediums. Agreed on the LRM spam, never works as well when I try to do it either.

I do believe they're all from PGI. I don't think HBS made any of them themselves Anyways, I'm plugging along with my modded 55 ton Blackjack. It has two upgraded AC/5s and a couple of medium pulse lasers. I toyed around with ER PPCs replacing the AC/5s but the heat was too much to manage on a mech of this size. Even with double heatsinks. But it's as I feared, I'm spending way more time modding than playing.

You can speed up repairs, healing, and travel by editing a file. Can reduce injury chance too. I'm still tweaking settings and haven't found that sweet spot yet. I saw a mod to add in the Warhammer but it's the new reimagined version so I passed on it for now. I think they're supposed to add it in officially some time after launch along with the Marauder and a few more "reseen" mechs.

It helps that I barely eat bread. Toast for my eggs mostly and I like it super simple.
