Edited August 26, 2014 by Agiel Quote “Political philosophers have often pointed out that in wartime, the citizen, the male citizen at least, loses one of his most basic rights, his right to life; and this has been true ever since the French Revolution and the invention of conscription, now an almost universally accepted principle. But these same philosophers have rarely noted that the citizen in question simultaneously loses another right, one just as basic and perhaps even more vital for his conception of himself as a civilized human being: the right not to kill.” -Jonathan Littell <<Les Bienveillantes>> Quote "The chancellor, the late chancellor, was only partly correct. He was obsolete. But so is the State, the entity he worshipped. Any state, entity, or ideology becomes obsolete when it stockpiles the wrong weapons: when it captures territories, but not minds; when it enslaves millions, but convinces nobody. When it is naked, yet puts on armor and calls it faith, while in the Eyes of God it has no faith at all. Any state, any entity, any ideology that fails to recognize the worth, the dignity, the rights of Man...that state is obsolete." -Rod Serling

Darkpriest Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Is that a game from the Silent Hunter series? I played the first one and loved it... then never really had time to sink into the series again...

Keyrock Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 Keyrock: What game are they from? World of Diving. It's an early access game, so it's incomplete and needs some polish, but it's pretty fun. It's a super chill game. Nothing to kill, no one trying to kill you, just swimming around in gorgeous underwater areas taking pictures of marine life, exploring wrecks, that sort of thing. 2 RFK Jr 2024 "Any organization created out of fear must create fear to survive." - Bill Hicks

Keyrock Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 (edited) There must surely be tentacles, yes? If there's any type of game where tentacles make perfect sense, it's a diving game, what, with squids and octopuses being native to the deep blue. I've yet to see either, but the game is far from finished, so cephalopods could be added in (or I just haven't noticed them yet).

Humanoid Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 So the very first turn of a landed Abductor UFO, this happens. To add insult to injury, them pathing behind the van means I barely get any overwatch fire on them. For added fun, this snow-covered town? Right in the middle of the Sahara desert, apparently. 2 L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G
Humanoid Posted August 29, 2014 Posted August 29, 2014 Edit timer's out but I guess I shouldn't leave anyone hanging. Anyone who knows this map pretty much knows I'm at the bottom edge of it, so running wasn't viable unless I just extracted immediately. But death or glory and all that, so I decided to go for it. No chance in hell of killing the elite in addition to the berserkers, so I dashed my medic (selected in the screenshot, with a crappy laser SMG which might have done 2-3 damage to one of those things) to behind the door of that white car on the left, flanking the elite but being unable to be flanked in return, with the hope of scaring him away on his turn instead of having him shoot and almost certainly one-shot one of my exposed troops. And boy, were there exposed troops. Rocketeer and Sniper in particular I couldn't afford to move, because the loss of shots or accuracy would have killed me. So the strategy was stand and deliver: a Chem Grenade to lower their damage resistance, parked the Assault at the front right corner of the van, hit all the berserkers with a Shredder. Three Close Combat Specialist free shots with a Pulse Shotgun chewed up the HP like nothing else, and the Assault followed up with two pistol shots, courtesy Close Encounters, to finish two of them off. Unfortunately one survived, but fortunately, of all people he chose to punch my scout, who I customarily stack with extra survivability items (Reinforced Armor for +1HP and +1DR, and Alloy Plating for +2HP). The punch hit for 11, so 12 before the DR, which means that without wearing both those items, my scout would have been dead. Seeing all that, whilst also being flanked, the Elite booked it and ran straight back into the UFO. Later on a 20hp Thinman and 25hp Outsider turned up, but they were absolute reliefs after that initial mess. L I E S T R O N GL I V E W R O N G
