  1. I did, but it's not funny. And doesn't say if that's what you actually receive when pickpocketing, either. Could just be a lore scroll one finds on a table for all I know. I don't think sorophx actually used the pickpocket ability on the tree. He read the poem and it inspired the screenshot.
  2. Red and Blue heraldry. Blue uniforms. edit: in games, from Dune 2 onward uniforms were changed to red and Atreides were given the blue ones. Seems to have been a marketing decission because of lingering Cold War indoctrination: the good guys in popular media cannot be Red (Similar to how the glow in the original Tron movie had to be changed ) edit 2: funny enough the games also took away the green uniforms of House Atreides and gave them to House Ordo. The colour red would, before Dune 2, be mostly associated with House Atreides (even though it was one of the two Harkonnen colours) because of Atreides heraldry being a red Hawk.
  3. Black and Green are the colours of House Atreides in the Dune universe.
  4. I'm at 70. Should have the last 30 by the end of the week if people die a bit at Dark Matter arkfalls.
  5. BMG depends on the weapons used by everyone else. If you have a number of people with sniper rifles, the damage spike will probably kill it before the next BMG tick. At least whenever I used BMG or infectors I didn't get the killshot.
  6. You are looking into going fully solar powered at home so you can recharge your device?
  7. I'm getting annoyed You will finish that pursuit before me... I have done 69 revives. 31 to go, then I need the killshot on the progenitor. Indeed, Dark Matter Arkfalls should make those last revives happen quite fast. I don't think I have ever seen anyone use grenade launchers in PvP. Probably the first grenade does full damage, burns through the shield and then the rest all do reduced damage as whatever perks the person is using kick in. I found a huge difference between having rank 1 powers and perks and having them all maxed.
  8. Feel free to post you actual build and weapon stats . Maybe I can think of something. I have an arkfall to run to, I'll post you my complete setup for PvP later edit: ok here goes my current set up: Bloodlust: 3% ego recharge on dealing damage, cooldown 5sec Pumped Up: Fully reloading weapon recharges Ego 15% Failsafe: 12% less damage while shield is recharging Rear Guard: 30% less damage from behind Cellular Armor: 6% less damage Regeneration: 3% HP regen Shadowed Strike: 30% more damage while cloaked Shadow's Core: -9 sec recharge on cloak Infiltrator: +6 sec Cloack duration I am thinking of replacing bloodlust with Sucker Punch for the 15% damage from behind. My current shield is a hurricane berserker with +5% fire rate on shield break.
  9. There is apparently stil quite a bit of cheating going on. I got one-shot by a bunny hopper with a SMG *shrug* Last Freight Yard I played I got 5/4/2 (kills/deaths/assists). Of those deaths one was to someone using an aim-hack (he repeatedly one-shots me, regardless of weapon used, scoring headshots even while turning in mid-air) and manning the cerberus turret - I was cloacked and rolling into cover and he still managed to one-shot me. Then again, getting cought in the open by a cerberus is supposed to be a death sentence. A second death was to a charge sniper rifle. I expected that to come eventually as I was defending a capture point. Not much you can do but keep moving and hope you are not presenting yourself to the eventual sniper long enough for them to fully charge a shot, line up the shot and take the shot. *shrug* Had I thought quicker I could have avoided another death but hey that's life. My kills were mostly cheap, but not what attackers shouldn't have expected: VOT Nano-Fragger from cloacked. One person got one-shot that way, two survived and I emptied the clip of my SMG into them. A fourth had just killed someone on my team and was weakened. The last kill was your average shoot-out: two people with automatic weapons firing at each other Charge sniper rifles are currently the flavour of the month in Shadow War. You can oneshot people at extreme range. Sawed-off shotguns got nerfed, but can still be deadly if you position yourself right and/or enemies allow you to get in close behind them. Nano-Fragger is my weapon of choice, though I hear others prefer Couriers. Some people now use charge blades. Those can apparently be quite deadly. A favourid for bunny hoppers are infectors. I think its the Immunizer that has the range of a sniper rifle without the need to aim? Then again that one was up for a nerf. Canker is a favourid of many as it does the highest damage without parasites. SMGs seem to be the most common backup weapon, though I have been killed by assault rifles I have heard of people having fully modded BMGs to finish their enemy off. Died to one once. Perks are important. You need the proper perks for your PvP build: reduced damage, reduced damage when shot in the back so you don't get one-shot by cloackers. From there on a lot can be usefull. Bloodlust (or what its called) to recharge your ego power when you deal damge seems to be popular. I have reduced cloack cooldown, increased cloack duration and decreased cooldown on full reload (that means that at the start of the match I can shoot my sawed-off shotgun three times and the reloads charge up my cloack before we een see the enemy). A nice perk also is the one that has you take half damage for a (very) short while when your shield breaks. I currently use bonus damage when attacking from cloack and bonus damage when shooting in the back though.
  10. I prefered SR3. Superjumping and sprinting is fun, but it takes the incentive out of driving. The wardens are cool mini-boss fights, but they stop you from just fighting from one corner of Steelport to the next. And I can't stand past Shaundi's voice.
  11. Has the lag gotten any better? I read a lot of bad things about the XBOX NA server. I finally did my 5th daily for Echelon. Yesterday seemed like a good chance to get another easy daily "5 kills in Capture and Hold". But after 3 hours in queue with no PvP happening, I gave up.
  12. Yay patch It returned my 'Merica, Abduction Gun, Bounce Rifle and Disintegrator, but my alien rifle, shotgun, smg and pistol as well as my taser are still missing.
  13. Another attempt at finishing Duck Tales Remastered. Managed to get through the final level and last boss without loosing a single life. Passed the platforming section after the boss loosing only one life. Failed at the platforming section after the platforming section after the final boss...
  14. I keep getting dreams on those lines.
  15. Didn't notice anyone posting this: Lennart Sas plays AoW3
  16. I didn't like that show But keep us updated on how it goes!
  17. Game Dev Tycoon is sending out Steam Keys to the people who bought the game from their site. I recieved mine a few minutes ago, so if you bought the game back when a bunch of us were playing it, check your mail
  18. One question is to what extend you want magic to alter the real world. Will it be a setting where the majority of people are not aware of magic and everything is covered up? Or will it be a True Blood type setting where supernatural creatures have come out of the close but are still managable? Or did a gate to hell open and the world is being overrun? Will only the players be able to recognize the supernatural? In the end you know your friends, we don't. So only you can guess what would be fun for you to play.
  19. Steam patched my game and I lost a lot of special weapons (abduction gun for example) and my pre-order DLC vanished...
  20. Wearing a hat, doing insurance fraud while listening to the Safety Dance.
  21. I can't think of a better choice. Can you bang him?I'm pretty sure. The first time I talked to him on the ship.(Y) Talk to Keith David(X) Romance Keith David Nope, he's the only one you can't bang. Though you can try. May have to do with him being the only real person *shrug*
  22. Yes. Though they are simulated cops in the matrix.
