Snarky Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 (edited) So Youtube has decided i love warhammer 40k. I got no idea. But i watch a lot of YouTube. So… I randomly checked some of the videos out. Death Korps of Krieg stood right out. Based on WW1 German trench warriors. So I made one. And named him Kriegsmann. The outfit is not a perfect match but it gets the point across. AR Devices Blaster. Which is so fun after last years AR tuning. My day off today. I ran 2 DFBs, Posi 1,2, Cavern of Trancendance, Synapse and Tarikoss. Now at 28. Good times. I led all the TF except the Posi 1. And yes, it was a sh..show. But we finished in a little over 40. Yes they rushed City Hall, then raced inside with no rest. And died against their clones. I held up in the library behind the clones after that, died two more times but took out 2 with Snipe and follow up fire. The Death Korp never retreat. And the only reason some of their charges do not succeed is the weight of their balls. Edited January 11 by Snarky 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So far, it's recommended me ones in Italian, Spanish, and Tagalog in hopes of providing me exactly what it thinks I'm swooning for. Why it thinks this completely baffles me. I'm also baffled by the logic process that leads to recommending Korean material instead of more of the Japanese and Japan related stuff that I actually do watch. 1 Unofficial Homecoming Wiki - Paragon Wiki updated for Homecoming!

It must think you are secretly Chuin. The ancient Korean master assassin from Remo Williams who loved soap operas. And dismembered anyone who interrupted them.

Water Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 algorithm /ˈalɡərɪð(ə)m/ a process or set of rules to be followed in calculations or other problem-solving operations, especially by a computer. I'm not sure that what YT uses is strictly an algorithm. There is no problem to solve when perusing media to watch. Not even a set of rules. The only purpose of the "algorithm" is to provoke your interest in the highest grossing financial product the platform has to offer based on your recent and historic consumption. There is no 'personality' data which describes you - it is as simple as word association - more video association to that which YT can make most money from, from you. But back on topic, that looks cool Snarky. I have a couple of AR's and they really are fun and tactical operators. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PeregrineFalcon Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Once you get Kriegsmann to 50 you might want to check out Warhammer 40k: Darktide. It's a fun FPS that does a great job with the WH:40k mood and aesthetic. 1 "It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion.

PeregrineFalcon Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 Don't worry about it Snarky. Death Korps of Krieg also uses Boltguns. 1 "It is by caffeine alone I set my mind in motion.

The closest thing I can think of in Sci-Fi is from a very old pulp fiction book. Maybe Niven or Heinlein. A "Dial-A-Gun" model, called by the troops a Dally Gun. This weapon had multiple ways to lay hate downrange, bullets, flames, grenades. It was just fun at a party. Due to CoHs attack types and rechatge that is basically what AR is. And then OF COURSE I go munitions mastery. Sure LRM Rocket is stupid. But damn.... Have you used this thing? With a +range Blaster half the time the mobs have no idea who hit them. And of course, as they run to you, you have all that time to kill them. At close range is a second Nuke available at the start of combat LRM, Full auto, and then... oh, then nothing really. Maybe grab a sponge. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemming Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 My AR/Dev is a lot of fun. I like laying down a field of trip mines, then backing off and launching a LRM. Survivors pick themselves up, starting charging, and just more boom. Not a great team tactic, but a lot of fun on a relaxed solo run 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My next project may be a solo run storyline with an AR/Dev. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheer size of the . . . Oh, you're talking about gaming with miniatures. My brother's family does that. I was only talking about computer games.
