PPCs are like particle projection cannons, iirc. Basically giant massive range fuck-off lightning guns. One of the deadlier weapons in the setting.

[Jopax]

They also have the side effect of fucking with the electronics/targeting of the hit mech? Been a while since I touched anything BTech related. Which reminds me that I wanted to give that rougetech mod a try one of these days.

Liberty Prime is the only giant robot I need. o_o7

Do we have a Battletech thread?

[Frumple]

More than one, iirc, though I don't think there's one for the table top and I'm pretty sure they've been inactive for a while. There's been threads for individual games, definitely one for the new one and I think one for some kind of almost MUD like game. We do have a general table top/pen and paper thread though, I think, which discussion could probably fit under.

I got the newest Civ 6 expansion and started a game against my roommate.  I built an entertainment complex next to an active volcano because who doesn't find lava+children entertaining (and it was the only spot where the bonuses would reach 4 cities).

The fake heroin smuggling Twitter Jesus saga, summarized here, is a special, shadenfreude-y kind of hilarious.

The guy's save-me-from-MS13 GoFundMe, by the way, was taken down after making only $35 of its $25,000 goal, and now his Twitter is gone too.

It's like watching Icarus fly too close to the sun, except he's wearing circular sunglasses and a mohawk and screaming about his flying skill the whole time so you're rooting for the sun from the outset.

The new Call of Duty is going to be called CoD: Modern Warfare, it's like they're not even trying anymore.

[wierd]

CoD is like Madden.

It's a zombie, kept alive unnaturally in search of delicious brains and wallets.

It's just like the third Xbox console being called the Xbox One. I wouldn't be too surprised if it's the same guy naming it.

[scriver]

I don't understand. What's wrong with it? Hasn't there been other games called that already? Have I been the butt of decades long internet jokes or something?

They've been sort of making the same game over and over for like..... I dunno, 20 years? Sometimes they add some kind of fancy online ranking system that puts forward a pale, withered imitation of creativity while stretching their cold and beclawed hands for your wallet.

In this case it's literally the same title from like, 2005 or something.

[TamerVirus]

Who needs nonsense like "creativity" or "innovation" when people buy it anyway

CoD4 and WaW were still pretty fun, especially since the latter has a flamethrower. I've dropped the franchise after MW3, though.

The title that was offered to PS Plus subscribers a few months ago, too.
