I might try to get on later, but it's a school night, so even if I did I probably wouldn't be able to play for very long

So I found your invite and I added you. However it looks like the sheer capacity of the servers is glitching that out a bit.
After I accepted I could not even go to the Friends tab, it just said "Please Wait Democratically"

Read a bunch of stuff last night. Outside of mechs coming there is also the rumor of swords and melee weapons.
Also not one, but two more enemy factions. I was on some crazy ass planet last night where there were small tornados everywhere!
I have well over 100 hours in and that is the first time I have seen that before.

Oh and we lost Malevelon Creek

I heard about that stuff, swords sounds cool. I think I'm only around 30 hours in, which makes sense since I haven't been able to play much during the week. I've never seen tornados or something, that sounds insane

So apparently there is this dude named Joel that is this game's Game Master and he alters the tides of war.

Between the Discord community, all the memes, all the posts on X and in game talking and banter between other players have made this more than just a game.
I don't think I have ever experienced anything like this before. I'm hooked.

I heard about that a few days ago, pretty crazy. The power he wields

[Macready]

so true!
This game is literally my life when I have spare time. It's never "Oh, ok just one more drop." then hours later I'm still playing space Vietnam.

[FrighT MasteR]

Agreed

I've been doing a lot of easy solo stuff recently, just farming samples and getting to know how certain mechanics work, especially when it comes to the terminals. Some of what you have to do on the terminals (depending on the objective) is a little confusing, especially in the heat of the moment.

Also, I knew you could call in a resupply on an enemy, but I learned you can also call it on an alien hole if you run out of grenades and it'll close when it crashes down

I saw The Illuminate being teased in some missions and talked about on the ship. I think they will be showing up soon. Yeah man the small details like that with the bug holes are crazy. If i do solo I save my SOS beacon for in a pinch to drop on a titan. That kills them. Also if you have a titan and waiting for your evac run for your life outside the evac landing area, the titan should be standing on it and the evac ship will kill it

Oh also, if you are near bug holes and a charger is coming for your ass...dodge and it will also close up a bug hole!

This is my favorite clip I made so far

The new balance patch

[Macready]

Ha, yep! Also including those fucking fire tornados I saw!

[FrighT MasteR]

Been reading that flamethrower actually pretty decent now

[Macready]

Man last nights drops were just too much. That Joel guy must have been in a bad mood or something. When you drop and get out of your pod
and immediately see 5 bile titans and 3 chargers what can you possibly do? I did 5 drops only evacked twice! Even the smaller bugs
were relentless. I did manage to rank up to 31 though at least.

As for the flamethrower it is powerful and can take down a charger quite easily but that shit is the most dangerous
friendly fire weapon in the game. Always toasting squadmates with that thing. The Breaker I use was nerfed but not power wise, it was nerfed
giving it a smaller clip which is quite noticeable.

Good games the other night Fright! Played a lot this weekend and had some awesome drops on "Impossible" which enabled me to upgrade my ship a bit with the extremely rare samples.
Just watched a video on what is coming up, it looks insane!

Yeah it was fun and sorta chill since we were on one of the easier difficulties. Next time we go do harder stuff

I played a little with my boys last night, but not as much as I'd like. They're here with me for most of the break, so we'll try to get a lot more gaming in soon.

I played the new missions last night where you have to turn on the towers that spray the Terminidcide. Holy shit these are rough.
Super fun though just like all the rest of the game. Met some really cool randoms as well and we played a few together. Looking forward to the
new Warbond dropping tomorrow!
