2024.05.15 15:20 XXXt3n How to lose weight and why you shouldn't be greedy
Hey, Im Daniel and im 22. September 2023 i was 120kg(264 pounds), And this is the story of how i went from 120kg(39.6% bf) to 76kg(19.8% bf) in only 4 months.
My routine used to be, wake up, gaming for 18h straight, 2L Coca Cola and eating shit everyday, till i saw a Brazillian guy on youtube, his youtube channel is called "Space Today", And he started a project with some other professional bodybuilder youtubers, he started at 180kg and i was like "huh, if he can do it, why wouldn't i be able to? he's starting line is way above mine." so i went to my local gym, took some nutricionism advices online for better understanding of food, and used some apps like Myfitnesspal or Fatsecret, to know how many calories each food had, bought a scale to weight my food 1 by 1 and did everything perfectly. I used to workout like a madman, my new routine was, wake up at 7 a.m, fasting, go to gym and do cardio, and then muscle training, I was eating 1300 calories a day and my total expenditure was like 3000/3400, that in the beggining.
A few months go by, and i started to get heated up on things, started working out 2 times a day, 1h 30m cardio in the morning, 1h 30m muscle workout at noon, every single day, i was greedy, i wanted it, i trained like it was my last day on earth, heavy training at that, 20km running every day, 140kg squat, 400kg leg press, 100kg bench, i was pretty satisfied with my numbers with only 3 to 4 months of training. One day i looked at the mirror and i could the infamous 6 pack starting to get form, imagine, took me 21 years to get 120kg and only 4 months to get lean, pretty good huh? So, i kept increasing weights, at this point (by my 3rd month) i was eating 1800kcal already cuz i thought i was spending way too much and giving in way too little, but i didnt wanted to exagerate. It reached a point i was training 6 days a week, and only sunday off because the gym was closed on that day, so i would go in the park near my house and start running.
By the end of January, i was running my usual 20 to 25km daily, when i suddenly felt something wrong, it wasnt just muscle pain on my legs that i felt, i stopped the treadmill and looked down confused, it was hurting like hell but i didnt care, just felt like it was a bad day and went home, prepared for afternoon workout and went to the gym, walking with a lot of pain but i couldnt afford to care. Kept doing my workout as usual day by day but with a lot of pain, till one day i was in the treadmill, and i had to stop by the kilometer 2 or 3 because of extreme pain, i couldnt run anymore, so i kept walking on the treadmill, like i said before, i didnt care at all about pain, people used to look at me, i was smiling while running and at the same time looking like i was about to just drop on the floor dying, you dont know the feeling of being depleted of energy but keep going at it till you try it... But in this day in specific it was different, i couldnt run anymore, nor walk, nor nothing, i seated in the treadmill and when i tried to get back up i couldnt, it was pain in the lowerback(lumbar) radiating to the legs, i felt that everyday specially on leg days, but never at this level of pain, this time i couldnt get up at all, so my friend called the PT'S and they decided to call an ambulance. i did a TAC analysis in the hospital, and they discovered degenerative herniated disk and several damaged sciatic nerves. I'm that type of guy that doesnt cry for anything, but I started crying when they told me i couldnt work out anymore and that i would need a cirurgy to replace the damaged disks...
You dont know what it is until it happens to you... Its so frustrating, in the start, you do it because you need to do it in order to lose fat, but when you start to see progress, you start to have fun with it, it stops being an obligation and starts being a fun hobby. They use to say that "in your highest times is when the devil comes for you", and i felt exactly that, in a moment, i was happy for the first time in life with my self and my body, and 1 minute later i had nothing.
Sorry for the big text, all this to say, its not worth it guys, take it slow, do a diet where you do a decent deficit, cutting 500kcal is okay, its not worth it going under 2000kcal, you dont need to cut half your calories, your body needs nutrients in order to function properly, Think of your body like a car, it needs gasoline to keep going, but it also needs oil, and manuntention, etc. I felt a lot of times out of strenght, i just kept going because in my mind was some David Goggins type of shit, "Do or die", "Imagine if this weight was a car and your mom's below it, push it or she'll get crushed" type of mentality you know? But what for? The best advice i can give you is, loosing weight is extremely easy, like i said, 21 years to get to 120 and 4 months to get back to 76, and if i had done it safely, probably could've achieved close to that number, like 85 or 80, with an even better physique, cuz will all this cardio training i lost tons of muscle mass. Remember, your body needs to rest, its not a machine, the world wont end tomorrow, you have plenty of time no matter your age, forget about being meso, meta or endomorph, everyone can do it, just change your habits little by little, and when it comes to food you dont need to change it at all, just control your portions, inform yourself with useful data. There are a lot of fake influencers but, also good ones like Dr.Mike or Paul Revelia or Lee Lem, they give plenty of healthy advices for free on how to achieve your ideal body % and realistic time to get it.
Thank you for having patience to read through all this. If i could go back in time, i would've done everything differently, being greedy was my biggest mistake, but if you are fat right now, i know you understand what were my thoughts, i just wanted to get rid of all that fat. In the end, it wasn't worth it guys. Stay safe!

2024.05.15 14:40 NerzyTheOne Guide: "How to replace firewalls with minimal changes"
Hi
u/PaloCommunity,
I've just finished writing my Discussion Post in the PaloAlto Networks Live Community. I'm copying the content (unformated) below. If you want to view it formated, go to following link:
https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/next-generation-firewall/guide-quot-how-to-replace-firewalls-with-minimal-changes-quot/m-p/586777 ~Foreword~ Last weekend we changed from old Firewall Hardware to new one.
On our Productionsite we switched from "PA-3250" to "PA-1410".
In our Datacenter, we switched from "PA-5250" to "PA-5410".
I am writing this article in case someone needs an easy way to replace old Hardware.
I wasnt able to find an article/discussion on this topic directly, so I'm writing one.
The Discussion/Article will consist of the following Points:
- Foreword
- General Information
- Our approach
- "How To" (TLDR)
- How to replace a Firewall with "Device States"-Export (In Detail)
- "Nice to know" Information
~General Information~ Some Information about our envrionment:
-We use Panorama to manage our Firewalls
-We use "Active/Passive" on all "HA"-Sites
Initial Situation:
-We wanted to do a "1:1" replacement/swap,
This means we wanted to:
-Use the same "Mgmt Ips"
-Use the Same Hostname
-Use similar Interfaces
-Use the same Ruleset
-Same Objects, NAT Rules, VPNs, etcâŠ
-We wanted to have minimal Downtime during the swap
~Our approach~ We asked ourself: "What is the best approach for a replacement like this"
We thought "If we have the whole config in place on the new device, including Ips, Interfaces, Ruleset, etc., we should be able to "Unplug" the old Devices and just have the new one "Active" running".
After defining our way to go, we started searching on "How to export Config, including Ruleset etc"
Thats where we stumbled upon the "Device State*"
-What is "Device State"? -Device State is essentially the config, including Ruleset, thats been pushed from panorama. (The device state contains ALL information pushed from the Panorama + the "running config". NAT-Rules, Interfaces etc. will also be included in this .xml) Once we had this information we started on the replacement (TLDR follows, to save you time in case that verison is not feasible for you)
~"How To" (TLDR)~ (TLDR) Quick Rundown:
- Export Original Device State
- Setup new Firewall (Mgmt IP and Password)
- Export "Device State" of new Device
- Replace "Admin"-User in "Original-Device-State" with the "Admin"-User of the "New-Device-State"
- Import Edited, Original-Device-State to new Hardware
- "Validate commit"
- CleanUp "Commit-Errors" in imported Config
- Commit
- Finished
~How to replace a Firewall with "Device States"-Export~ - Export Original Device State
"How to export a Device State of old Hardware?"
â Go to
"Device -> Setup -> Operations -> "Export device state"" Save the Device State with a proper name, youll need it later (PA01001_OriginalHardware.tgz")
- Setup new Firewall
You'll need to perform the initial Setup for your new Firewall. (CLI)
â Setup Password
AND COMMIT â Setup Mgmt IP (So you can access the Web-UI)
Example: set deviceconfig system ip-address 192.168.0.1 netmask 255.255.0.0
- Export "Device State" of new Device
After successfully setting up "Mgmt-IP" and "Password" for the new Firewall, export the Device State of the new Firewall (WebUI)
â Go to
"Device -> Setup -> Operations -> "Export device state"" Save the Device State with a proper name (PA01001_NewHardware.tgz")
- Replace "Admin"-User in "PA01001_OriginalHardware.tgz" with the "Admin"-User of the "PA01001_NewHardware.tgz"
You have to replace the Adminuser, in the "PA01001_OriginalHardware.tgz" with the Adminuser, of the "PA01001_NewHardware.tgz" because passwords are hashed by the device.
!The hashed password of the "PA01001_OriginalHardware.tgz" will not work on the new device! To replace the Admin user you have to do the following:
â Open "PA01001_OriginalHardware.tgz" and "PA01001_NewHardware.tgz" in "7zip"
â Search for "running-config.xml" in both device states and open it by hiting "Edit"
â In the "PA01001_NewHardware.tgz" Search for
and copy it
Copy the whole block:
59193ioasdo%93osaPASSWORDHASH
yes
â In the "PA01001_OriginalHardware.tgz" running-config, search for
and replace this user with the just copied user from above
â Save the "PA01001_OriginalHardware.tgz"
- Import Edited, "PA01001_OriginalHardware.tgz" to new Hardware
Now, after you edited the "PA01001_OriginalHardware.tgz" to have the new user, you can start importing the device state to the new Firewall.
â Log on to WebUI of the new Firewall
â Go to "Device -> Setup -> Operations -> "Import device state""
â Select the "PA01001_OriginalHardware.tgz" file and hit "Ok"
You might have to reload the page (and maybe give yourself another IP) because the Mgmt-IP has now been swapped to the Mgmt-IP of the "PA01001_OriginalHardware.tgz"
- "Validate commit"
Now, once youve uploaded the "PA01001_OriginalHardware.tgz" you can hit "Vallidate Commit"
During this step you might see some errors that you have to clean up in your "PA01001_OriginalHardware.tgz"
Example of errors during the Vallidate:
deviceconfig -> setting -> management -> quota-settings -> chassis-quota unexpected here
deviceconfig -> setting -> management -> quota-settings is invalid
deviceconfig -> setting -> management is invalid
deviceconfig -> setting is invalid
deviceconfig is invalid
rulebase -> security -> rules -> Block_TorAddresses -> source 'panw-torexit-ip-list' is not an allowed keyword
rulebase -> security -> rules -> Block_TorAddresses -> source panw-torexit-ip-list is an invalid ipv4/v6 address
rulebase -> security -> rules -> Block_TorAddresses -> source panw-torexit-ip-list invalid range start IP
rulebase -> security -> rules -> Block_TorAddresses -> source 'panw-torexit-ip-list' is not a valid reference
rulebase -> security -> rules -> Block_TorAddresses -> source is invalid
rulebase -> security -> rules is invalid
rulebase -> security is invalid
rulebase is invalid
vsys is invalid
devices is invalid
log-settings -> correlation unexpected here
log-settings is invalid
shared is invalid
Example on "How to clean up "chassis-quota unexpected here""
â Open "PA01001_OriginalHardware.tgz" and search for "running-config.xml"
â Search for
â Delete the whole block from the Device State:
16
32
5
2
2
2
20
20
â Save the "PA01001_OriginalHardware.tgz" again
â Upload the Updated "PA01001_OriginalHardware.tgz" and hit "Validate Commit" again.
â If there are still errors, you have to clean up those errors as well (might also be settings in "template-config.xml" for example)
â Repeat those steps until there are no errors left
7. Commit
After you cleaned up the commit errors, and "Vallidate Commit" does not display any more errors, you are ready to hit "Commit"
Once you've hit "Commit", you are done and ready to use the new Firewall
We had literally no downtime. The worst downtime with this method was 6 ping losses in our Datacenter.
It was my first replacement I've ever performed so I was kinda nervours at the beginning, but after the replacement of the first HA-Pair the way to go was pretty clear and I was calm for the following replacements.
~"Nice to know" Information~
- I disabled "ZTP" (ZeroTouchProvisioning) immediately after first boot of the new Firewall
- Remember to commit after changing the password via CLI!
- To have the smoothes transition of old hardware to new one, I recommend activating "Trial" Licenses for the new Hardware.
- With trial licenses you are able to download content updates, EDLs, etcâŠ
- Make sure the Interface speed of the new Hardware matches the interface speed of the old hardware
- If Interface Speed differs, you have to swap interfaces (GUI or CLI) after successfully importing the "PA01001_OriginalHardware.tgz"
- If your setting up a new "HA-Pair" you have to export/import the HA Key of both new devices
If I'd had to replace Firewalls next week, I would use the same method. Once you get used to interpreting the Error Messages during "Validate Commit", its smooth sailing.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask and imma try to get back to you asap.

2024.05.15 14:31 MrAwesome OpenMW one-step install for Steam Deck
Hey guys, I wrote some simple tooling to get OpenMW (via Luxtorpeda) working on the Steam Deck with no instructions needed. Would love some help testing it!
Just go to https://openmw.lol in Desktop Mode, download the installer, and run it. (It should handle everything for you, at most you may need to reboot the Deck if your on-screen keyboard gets wonky after a Steam restart.)
After that, just launch Morrowind from Game Mode like you would any other game!
This will also work on essentially any modern Linux desktop, so feel free to try it out there and let me know how it goes.
(Technical info: This uses the same .desktop -> shell script method that Decky uses, there's a link to the GitHub or a direct download of the shell script if you want to read the code before executing it. Behind that, it just uses protonutils to install Luxtorpeda and then tell Steam to use that as the compatibility layer for Morrowind. I've been using this method on my own Deck for months now with no serious issues, but protonutils instead of ProtonUp-QT is new so let me know if there are any issues with that!)
If you do test it out, let me know how it goes! And if you run into any issues, just comment here or make an issue on the GitHub:

2024.05.15 14:29 DisastrousBad2930 Tutorial: Elden Ring - Online LAN Coop fix GoldbergEmulator ModEngine2 Seamless Co-op Mod
Welcome to Elden Ring Online Coop guide for cracked / pirated version of the game. Youâll find everything you need to know in this post. This method even allows you to play Online Coop with friends who bought the game on Steam (as long as they download Goldberg emu) and will be explained further in this tutorial.
This method uses a combination of
GoldbergEmu,
ZeroTier,
SeamlessCoopMod,
EldenModLoader, and
ModEngine2.
Canât guarantee 100%, but almost certain that this will work when
Shadow Of The Erdtree DLC is out. Reason why? This method works for every version after v1.04 of Elden Ring, so see no reason why this wouldnât work in the future. Probably, will need to add
Cream_api to it, but I guess time will tell.
Main Tutorial: - Download Elden Ring (make sure every player has got the same exact version, for example Elden Ring v1.10)
- Download ONLY steam_appid.txt and steam_emu.ini: https://github.com/K3V1991/How-to-install-Seamless-Co-Op-Mod-for-Elden-Ring/tree/main/Game Put these 2 files in a new folder, so you know where they are. We will need them shortly
- Download Goldberg Emulator: https://mr_goldberg.gitlab.io/goldberg_emulato click the long highlighted number '475342f0d8b2bd7eb0d93bd7cfdd61e3ae7cda24' to download
- Extract it and open the folder.
- Find steam_api64.dll file in there. Copy and paste it into the same folder where you saved steam_appid.txt and steam_emu.ini
- Install Elden Ring. IMPORTANT! When you install the game make sure to have proper directory, otherwise ModEngine wonât work. It should be like this ELDEN RING/Game. Doesnât matter where you choose to install it, but make sure the last 2 folders are ELDEN RING and inside it, Game folder. All the game files should be in here. For example mine is this: D:/Games/ELDEN RING/Game/
- After installing Elden Ring open ELDEN RING/Game folder. Now, copy and paste steam_appid.txt, steam_emu.ini and steam_api64.dll that you downloaded in step 2) and 3).
- For Steam players, back up steam_api64.dll before overwriting it. Youâll need this file to revert back to your Steam version of the game. Rename it to .backup Example: steam_api64.dll.backup*. When you want to revert it, just delete .backup*
- In your Game folder also create a .txt file. Name it exactly this: steam_interfaces.txt (nothing needs to be inside it)
- Okay. Eden Ring and Goldberg Emulator is done. Now, download the following 3 Mods:
- Elden Mod Loader: https://www.nexusmods.com/eldenring/mods/117
- Mod Engine 2: https://github.com/soulsmods/ModEngine2/releases
- Seamless Co-Op: https://www.nexusmods.com/eldenring/mods/510
- Make sure all players are on the version of SeamlessCoop. Example: *Seamless Co-op BETA 1.5.1*
- Depending on which version of Elden Ring you have, you may need to check the compatibility. Download an older version of Seamless Coop that supports your Elden Ring version.
- First, install Elden Mod Loader. Just need to copy & paste 3 files into your Game folder: mods folder, dinput8.dll and mod_loader_config.ini
- Install Mod Engine 2. Copy and paste it into your Game folder the following files: mod folder, modengine2 folder, config_eldenring.toml, launchmod_eldenring.bat and modengine2_launcher.exe
- Install Seamless Co-OP. Again, copy and paste into your Game folder the following files: SeamlessCoop folder and launch_elden_ring_seamlesscoop.exe
- Important
- First, launch the game using launch_elden_ring_seamlesscoop.exe that you've just put in.
- When the game opens, it should say "Welcome to Seamless Co-op Mod".
- We are going to set up Elden Ring to launch via Mod Engine 2. We can do this by running modengine2_launcher.exe file.
- Make a shortcut for this and move it to you desktop. This will be the new way of launching the game. Change the icon to EldenRing.exe
- We also need to move two of the Seamless Co-op files to your mods folder. Your can find this in your Game folder. *ELDEN RING\Game\mods*#
- Open Seamless Co-Op folder and move seamlesscoopsettings.ini and elden_ring_seamless_coop.dll into mods folder. Important to move the files and not copy paste.
- Whilst you're at it, open seamlesscoopsettings.ini and change your password. The password has to be the same for you and your friends if you want to play together
- Test if seamless is working by launching the game using modengine2_launcher.exe shortcut. You should be greeting again with"Welcome to Seamless Co-Op" message.
Every player will need a different
Username and
SteamID in order to connect.
- Open your Roaming AppData directory: C:/Users/USERNAME/AppData/Roaming/. Alternatively, press WIN + R, then type %appdata%
- Open Goldberg SteamEmu Saves folder, then settings folder. Edit account_name.txt and change your Username.
- Next, open user_steam_id.txt and change the number slightly for every player. (I just changed the last two digits)
Congrats! Elden Ring*,*
Goldberg*,*
SeamlessCoop*,*
ModEngine2 and EldenModLoader have all been set up. The worst part is out the way. Next, you will need ZeroTier to host a LAN connection. Itâs free and easy to use so would definitely recommend. ZeroTier Tutorial: - Download ZeroTier
- Only the host will need to create an account with ZeroTier to create and manage servers/ networks.
- Create a New Network and join in it via ZeroTier app.
- The Host will need to accept/authorise each player who joined the server via ZeroTier website.
- Once all player have joined and the host has authorised them on the network you can now launch Elden Ring and enjoy Seamless Coop with your friends :)
How to join each others world? This is fairly straightforward:
- Complete the tutorial and enter into Limgrave where you find The First Step site of grace.
- One player will use Tine Grey Pot to open their world.
- Others will join it by using Effigy Of Malenia
- To leave the session use Separation Mist
Can I use my old Save? Yes. Just need to change the extension of the save file.
- Open: *C:/Users/USERNAME/AppData/Roaming/EldenRing/(alongnumber)
- Youâll see two files with .sl2 and .sl2.bak extensions. These are your old save files
- To change them to Seamless Coop, make a copy and rename them to .co2 and .co2.bak You must have Show Hidden Files and Folders enabled in your file explorer to see AppData
Important In this guide, Iâve showed you how to set this up with
EldenModLoader and
ModEngine2. Different mods will require different mod loaders but the vast majority will require one of these two. The important thing is not to get them confused with each other, as the folder names are very similar.
- Elden Mod Loader: uses mod folder
- Mod Engine 2: uses mods folder Iâve tested a bunch of mods and theyâre all work fine for me online. Some of course wont, but you can check out SeamlessCoopMod Nexus page for compatibility
Not Working? Please read and follow the tutorial properly, every step of the way. As mention before, this method works for every version after Eden Ring v1.04, so check which one you have. Also, you have to be on the same patch of Elden Ring as well as Seamless Coop as you friends in order to connect.
I would highly recommend to try this after a fresh install of Elden Ring, as you may have installed some mods or messed with some files before, that could affect this.
Failed: No sessions found - Make sure you and your Friends:
- Using the same Mod Version
- Same Seamless Co-Op Password
- Connected to a ZeroTier-like Program
- Generated the steam_interfaces.txt
Good luck my fellow Tarnished!

2024.05.15 14:17 martinsmith01 8 Incredible Beginner Cricut Projects for New Crafters
| Hey there! Are you in search of beginner Cricut projects? There was a time when I was at your placeđ, looking for the answer to the same questions. Then, I hardly used to get an easy design I could start with. So, I used to get references from the blog but never copied the same. Using the Cricut Design Space app, I made some simple designs by adding my creative touch. One of the biggest takeaways from creating these easier designs was that I learned almost all the features of the Cricut app, like which tools are used for what purpose. This gave me confidence and made me an expert in crafting. Today, you will explore the top 8 Cricut projects for beginners. So, what are you waiting for? Letâs get started without any further delay! https://preview.redd.it/uvgf6mlz0l0d1.png?width=720&format=png&auto=webp&s=e93a595fcdd64832e4dca3868566adb378dd5550 I recently came up with an interesting idea: I would create a T-shirt with geometric graphics. Yes, adding a simple kind of design is boring now! So, I first found the design on the internet and did some modifications to it. Yes, modifications like resize and color are needed depending on your choice of color and the size of the T-shirt you are going to work on. Rest, Cricut has your back, and this is going to be one of the best beginner Cricut projects! https://preview.redd.it/24xwt8x01l0d1.png?width=720&format=png&auto=webp&s=6aecfee6d6b86ea60c9c35bcf4795aefd21afbbe I love personalized phone cases.

First:
https://www.reddit.com/HFY/comments/14vo5lb/troublemakers_deaths_pity/ *previous:*
https://www.reddit.com/HFY/comments/1crq34h/troublemakers_buried_secrets_bolster_the_weak/ ......
Go'mon strutted around the command center, a cape of deep purple silk flowing about his shoulders as he wore his gilded armor. An ornate helmet underneath one arm, the faceplate forged into the visage of a snarling Rak'nal beast. He peered over the shoulders of drone pilots, observing the carnage on the streets in front of the mansion. His black scimitar hung at his belt, the palm of his war gauntlet resting on the hilt, eyebrow crests rising as he saw the expeditionary general's Buzzard explode.
"Casualty report on General Gra'vos?"
He stated to the small Geknosian woman who deftly piloted her drone closer to the wreckage to pull data from the onboard recorder. Her eyes sparkled, reflected in the screen as the data was streamed directly into her brain through a neural implant.
"Deceased, Just like you planned, his provided pleasure slave threw him from the craft and stole the det-sphere you clipped to his belt. You seem to know a lot about how these humans fight."
Go'mon touched the small grooves underneath the elastomer skin of his face where that parasite had shot him with a concealed gun. He laughed bloodily and purred.
"Failure is the greatest teacher in the universe, these parasites have taught me everything they know. Now we just need to see what their true fighting strength is."
"Understood sir, orders?"
"Get a view on the inner courtyard and report to the commanders of the second and third waves their positions and weaponry."
A young lieutenant called out.
"Sir! Twelve UHM-60 Blackhawks en-route to the enemy base! Advise!"
Go'mon stalked over, peering over the satellite observer's shoulder as he followed a chevron of twelve helicopters loaded down with ancient, obsolete human war-droids. He rapped the claws of his war gauntlet against the handle of his scimitar with a purr.
"Send orders to Commander Mar'tek to equip three of his Gallicks with anti-air weaponry, and orders for Commander Rak'don to equip his light attack craft with visual lock on missiles."
"Yes sir, relaying orders now."
Go'mon patted his subordinate on the shoulder hard enough to make them wince as he stepped back to gaze up at the massive map of Golgotha on the big screen. Small purple dots converging on a black dot that symbolized the human base of operations. He noticed that Mar'tek's forces were delayed, having only made it roughly halfway to their staging area. Walking over to the Comm's desk he asked.
"What's taking Commander Mar'tek so long to get into position?"
"A small group of human Saboteurs dropped a pair of buildings across the roadway, they're still clearing the rubble sir."
Go'mon nodded, picking idly at his metal teeth with the sharp point of his war gauntlet's index finger.
"Hm... I thought the parasite's response was oddly punctual, color me surprised they had the wherewithal to keep scouts. Move Mar'tek to the rear of the attack plan and tell Rak'don he's up next."
"Yessir!"
Go'mon chuckled haughtily, exiting the command room and returning to his field office. Setting his helmet on top of his desk he picked up the communication stick for sylva.
"Sylva,
Would you kindly deal with that gate once you've landed?~"
There was a pause before.
"I'm too injured to follow that order sir."
Go'mon raised an eyebrow crest at the monotone voice that echoed back through the device.
"you've never refused a command before darling,
would you kindly take care of the gate?"
The pause was longer this time, much longer this time. Then, a different, much younger voice came through, filled with fear, but also tainted with determination.
"Fuck you, Go'mon. These are our friends."
The sound of penny whistles and drums accompanied the words before the comms device popped in his gauntlet with the sound of a musket shot. Impossibly thick gray smoke pulsing from the speaker as he snarled and tossed it to the side.
"Bobby,
Would you be a dear and retrieve your sister for me?"
The almost seven foot tall brute slowly nodded, eyes dull behind his ceramite mask as he stomped from the command center, bulky combat armor clattering and clunking with each step. Go'mon pressed his metal teeth together with a hiss. That damned warrior corrupted everything he touched with delusions of free will. Go'mon grabbed a fungal cigar from the box General Da'kos had given him as a thank you gift. The sweet, smoky flavor filling his maw as he lit it with the glowing hot blade of his gauntlet's thumb. He relaxed into his chair, flicking his cape out from beneath him as he enjoyed the cigar to relieve some momentary stress. His body suddenly flared with tingling power as the voice of Conquest growled in his ear.
"Kill that boy before he realises your plan. if he finds out your intentions he won't hold back." Go'mon puffed the cigar and pulled it from his lips, letting it burst into purple flames and crumble away into cinders as he rose from his chair. He stepped out into the command center and commanded.
"Get me a buzzard to that battlefield, Order's from Conquest herself!"
There was a moment of silence as he let his aura roll over the command room, several of the comms officers immediately setting up a Buzzard for his departure.
...
Dust kicked off the ground as Drake's jump pack slowed his fall meters above the ground, He hit the ground and tore it from his back, whipping it into a group of soldiers and hitting it with a jet of pale flames.
The pack detonated in ball of orange fire that vaporized the soldiers, his cape fluttering in the backdraft before he whipped his sword from it's sheath, keen edges wreathed in pale flames as he took a Geknosian's arm off at the elbow as they tried to stuff a blaster pistol in his face. He snatched the blaster pistol from the air, using it to put a kinetic bolt into the faceplate of a powerarmored soldier with a Warhammer, Crumpling it inwards as he slid a foot back, another warhammer crashing into the ground where he'd just been standing. Another kinetic bolt tore off the soldier's pauldron as the hammer swung up at his face, making him reel back as another hammerhead caught him at the small of his back and knocked the air from his lungs. Another hammer slammed into his faceplate, forcing him to kick himself into a flip to land back on his feet. Ears ringing he deflected a Warhammer with his sword before putting another blaster bolt into the wielder's faceplate. But even as they fell back, another hammerblow hit the side of his helmet and smacked him down. Drake rolled out of the way as twenty millimeter high-explosive rounds shredded his assailants, allowing him to get to his feet as the war-bots formed a lethal semicircle, sending high explosive firepowerinto the rear column of the Geknosian assault at a blistering pace. Drake shook his head clear and vaulted over the back of one, hearing it's gun fall silent as he landed in it's cone of fire. Several flowing chops decimated a small squad of Geknosians as he tried to fight his way to the center of the column where the Gallicks hammered the gate with kinetic penetrators. The armored gate shuddering with each blow as Drake dodged war gauntlets and hammers, retaliating with fast slashes and blinding thrusts. Purple blood drenching him as his heart began to pound with battle lust.
He heard a mighty roar and crackle as one of the flying machines opened up with it's chin gun, harassing a gallick with 20mm High explosive rounds to get it's attention off the gates. It's shadow passing overhead with a Buzzard in pursuit as it slalomed low through the buildings to come back for another gun run. There was a ground shaking Boom! as something exploded beyond the rooftops, a Buzzard, smoking from one engine buzzing overhead and away from the battlefield. Drake quickly returned his focus to the battlefield, Smacking a Warhammer to the side with the blaster pistol before thrusting the blade right beneath the soldier's chin, twisting, and pulling free as a war-bot fell forward, a molten pit of slag glowing in it's back as he turned his head to face another column of armor and armored soldiers as they rounded onto the battlefield, a Buzzard painted the deepest, most royal purple he'd ever seen hovered low in front of them.
A geknosian in gold and purple armor fell from the open door, Cape of purple silk flowing behind them as they landed with one palm against the ground, Dark scimitar slashed out to the side as a crescent blade of purple energy was slung straight at Drake. Death's chosen slashed upward at the crescent, but it flowed around his blade, cutting across his chest and bringing with it a foul, draining weakness as a cold, familiar voice called out.
"That one's mine boys!~ all mine!~"
Drake hadn't recognized Go'mon in the ornate armor, but now there was no mistaking it. He tried to take a step forward but his legs buckled beneath him, sending him to his knees as a festering cold spread from the wounds made by the crescent blade that never touched his armor. He looked in confusion at his sword as the pale flames flickered out, then up just as Go'mons armored shin cracked into the side of his helmet, flinging him through a building as his mind reeled with confusion. He pulled himself from the rubble around him, stumbling to the side as a blade of purple energy sliced through the rubble he'd just been buried in without leaving a mark. He tossed the blaster pistol to the side, bringing the free hand to his mouth, intending to rip a ring off with his teeth. But as Go'mon slung another blade of purple energy with a cackle, He missed the ring, biting off his left index finger, ring and all as a boost of power burned the creeping cold away. He spit the severed digit to the ground as the ring still on it puffed into smoke.
"Feeling weak boy?!~ like your power's been drained?~"
Go'mon purred as he took a step forward, aura swelling with power as he held up the black sword.
"
The blade of greed will do that if you let it touch you~"
Go'mon took an unfamiliar stance, Blade arched over his head and pointed down as he fell into a low, wide stance, one arm pushed forward as the blades on his war gauntlet's fingers glowed orange with heat. Drake fell into his peasants guard, gripping his sword in two hands as he glared at Go'mon. His gaze flickered off go'mon for a split second as he thought of everyone still in the mansion and the Geknosian chosen surged forward in a flash of purple light to run drake through before kicking him through the back wall of the building, Drake's power draining away like the blood pouring from the hole in his Lorica. He barely deflected Go'mons black blade as Conquest's chosen surged forward with a brutal slash, unable to focus for the split second required to dissipate a ring and refresh his power. Go'mons aura blooming with power with each blow of that black blade. Drake burst through a wall and into an empty street, tumbling ass over head as he desperately held onto his sword.
Angry red blood spilled from the hole in his armor as he got his elbows under him, a pair of golden boots clomping into view as Go'mon gloated, a softly flickering bloom of pale purple flames in his palm.
"All this power, and you don't even know how to properly control or wield it... Don't worry, you won't have it long~"
Drake manage to dissipate the remaining rings on his left hand, an intoxicating burst of power allowing him to launch himself back away from Go'mon as his wounds knitted closed, severed finger growing back with a crunching, fleshy noise. He could feel Go'mons grin behind the snarling visage of his helmet as he fell into a peasants guard, feeling far too weak for having removed five rings. The two stared at each other silently, one of the flying machines spinning to the ground before exploding into a fireball behind Go'mon. Drake fet a deathly calm fall over him as he twisted his sword up into a high guard.
He had to make it back to his people, no matter what. The thumb and pinkie ring on his right hand puffed into smoke as he felt those corvid like wings form at his back, a cold cage of festering ice around the burning sun of rage in his heart. Go'mon took a simple offensive guard, twirling the scimitar with obvious skill in a figure eight in front of him.
The two chosen launched themselves at each other, Drake wreathed in black smoke as Go'mon exploded with pale purple light; the pavement cracking beneath their feet with the violence of the action.
...
Martha tended to the mounting wounded in the infirmary as fast as she could, back splayed open as small gossamer arms allowed her to work on several wounded at once. Many of the ex-slave women helped, binding wounds with clean bandages and splinting broken limbs like they had back at the plantations. Hearing the large wooden doors of the ballroom infirmary slam open, she looked up as Destrier and Caz hauled in a pale remin and a Brutalized young woman. Keeping one hand holding a bundle of gauze against the bleeding wound she was attempting to close up, The young man looking up at her with fear, pain, and hope on his face as he helped hold the gauze down. Pointing to two empty beds she called out.
"Set them there! Where's Drake?! We could really use the walking embodiment of Death right now!"
Destrier hoarsely called back, setting Remin into a bed as the old man struggled to keep his eyes open.
"He's fighting his way towards us from the rear!"
Caz helped the battered young woman into a bed where she curled into the fetal position before the Markswoman swept back out of the infirmary, Huntress humming as she slammed a new flechette into the barrel. Martha continued tying off tattered blood vessels, trying to keep the young man from bleeding out as Cassius appeared next to her, shaking his hands dry after scrubbing them with antiseptic to help close up the gnarly gash in the stomach of the wounded man behind her. Martha's heart pounded in her throat as she finally managed to sew the wound closed before hitting the fighter with a sedative to ease his pain and knock him out. She wanted to cry but held in her tears as she turned around to focus on the same patient as Cassius, but even as she did, the young man placed a bloodied palm on her forearm. She felt a lone tear drip down her snout as she looked at the mans deathly stillness, eyes closed in quiet acceptance of his fate, a grim smile on his face.
Her legs felt weak beneath her as she leaned on Cassius, watching Destrier rush out of the infirmary out of the corner of her eye.
"we're going to need a miracle if we want to make it out of this alive..."
She whimpered as the din of battle echoed dully from outside. That was when a wounded man sat up, grunting as he held the bandages across his torso. She rushed over to stop him from tumbling out of bed when he simply fell through the floor, an odd superposition happening where he was there and not for a split second. But when it faded, there was a note left on the ground, scrawled in blood red, blotchy words.
"I'll be back, and I won't be alone." Martha could only hope that was true as she turned to continue tending the wounded, Despair filling her heart as more wounded were brought in from the ramparts.
...
Halcyon held the gate, rifle spitting hatred from behind one of the wall's crenellations as one of his Hellions fell next to him, skull split open by gauss slug. Halcyon glanced down at the gate where Thomas and another hulking agri-droid held it against the wall, the gate rattling with each impact of a Gallick's kinetic penetrator, apples of sunlight spreading across the ground where they'd simply sailed straight through. The Geknosian reinforcements turning an already blistering hail of various projectiles and beams becoming an impassable force as several of their light cruisers fired on the helicopters that circled over the battlefield. Missiles streaking upwards and shredding the soft-skinned aircraft, forcing them to take evasive maneuvers and stop the pulse-pounding barrage of their rotary cannons. Halcyon's attention was drawn to the sky as an impossibly loud crash of steel on steel accompanied a streak of pale purple light and void black as they shot into the sky. The black streak getting slammed down by a brutal, unseen strike that made Halcyon's heart leap into his throat. What kind of monster could go toe to toe with Drake,
and appear to be winning.
Halcyon, peaked past the cranellation he had his back against, a gauss slug taking his eye out and making him shout in pain as he jerked his head back. Ripping a bundle of gauze from his medi-pack, he rolled it out and bunched it up, pressing it against his vacant and shattered eye socket as a bout of lightheadedness turned the edges of his reduced vision dark.
One of his men crouched beside him flinching when chips of stone exploded from the crenellation they'd been taking cover behind, some sort of heavy weapon having been aimed at them as they darted for Halcyon. Halcyon looked into their eyes, face just as dismayed as he felt, their words barely audible over the din of battle.
"what do we do, sir...?"
Halcyon let out a sigh, shouting over the roar of gunfire.
"Pull back! secure the mansion!"
The fighters didn't need to be told twice as the ramparts were abandoned, leaping from the walls to sprint back to the mansion, The agri-bots forming a phalanx behind them to cover their retreat. But Halcyon couldn't help but feel this is exactly what the Geknosians wanted.
But even as the fighters swarmed into the Mansion, Two figures walked past them.
A hulking man in dark samurai armor wielding an lmg and a smaller woman with a flowing furred cloak and white mask, carrying an ornate rail rifle walked past them through the doors.
Halcyon watched in dismayed confusion as Caz and Destrier stepped out into the sunlight, a jump pack freshly mounted on Destriers back beside his kanabo. Another smaller figure appeared as if from thin air, Cassius spinning the weight at the end of a chain attached to a kama menacingly as the doors closed behind them, massive metal shutters sealing them out as the mansion was locked down. He couldn't help but smile grimly.
There was a reason they were Drake's friends, and it wasn't because they were the best fighters.
It was because when everyone else ran away, they ran towards the fight... regardless of their own safety.

2024.05.15 14:00 King_Dinosaur_1955 60 Years Ago Today: "The Brain Center At Whipple's" premiered
| [Swipe left for more photos] (See photos #1 and #2) What was happening with computers and automation around the time this episode originally aired: In 1960 a science technology TV program aired an episode titled "The Thinking Machine". Here's a 3-minute video excerpt from the hour-long program The science technology episode of 'Tomorrow', coordinated with M.I.T., aired on CBS in early 1961. The full show can be viewed on YouTube for free running 53-minutes From Forbes magazine July 18, 2019: By 1958, the nation had entered the âAutomation Depressionâ in which âwe are stumbling blindly into the automation era with no concept or plan to reconcile the need of workers for income and the need of business for cost-cutting and worker-displacing innovations.â Four years later, President Kennedy was asked in a news conference âMr. President, our Labor Department estimates that approximately 1.8 million persons holding jobs are replaced every year by machines. How urgent do you view this problemâautomation?â Kennedyâs response? That âit is a fact that we have to find, over a ten-year period, 25,000 new jobs every week to take care of those who are displaced by machines, and those who are coming into the labor market ⊠in particular industries we might get special structural unemployment. We have seen that in steel, we have seen it in coal, we may see it in other industries ⊠I regard it as the major domestic challenge, really, of the â60s, to maintain full employment at a time when automation, of course, is replacing men.â Richard Deacon was born May, 14, 1921 in Philadelphia. When he was 11, he was afflicted with polio and later took up dancing to help strengthen his legs. In his teens, the Deacon family moved to Binghamton, New York. Richard Deacon was actually a classmate of Rod Serling. Largely due to his early polio scare, Deacon became an intern during high school at Binghamton General Hospital and later served in the Army Medical Corps during World War II. Richard Deacon added to the revised opening sequence of "Invasion Of The Body Snatchers" 1956 2-minute YouTube clip [Note: the distribution studio executives wanted to add the prologue and epilogue to the completed film to make it comforting and hopeful for audiences.] (See photo #3) Richard Deacon was typecast as a middle management authority who rarely received respect from either end of the employment spectrum. Two words that adequately describes the frequent acting persona: prissy milksop. Deacon's two longest and most notable TV roles â as Lumpyâs dad on âLeave It to Beaverâ (1951-1963) and Mel Cooley on âThe Dick Van Dykeâ show (1961-66) â overlapped by two years. (See photo #4) In the 1970s, Richard Deacon was touted as a notable gourmet chef and wrote one of the first recipe books for cooking with a microwave oven. Richard Deacon died of cardiovascular disease on August 8, 1984, at age 62. His remains were cremated and the ashes scattered at sea.

A big, brawny villain of many 1940s and 1950s films, Ted de Corsia was an actor in touring companies and on radio before making a memorable film debut as the killer in The Lady from Shanghai (1947).

2024.05.15 13:39 real_chigg Finally below 100Kgs !!!
Stood on the scale today 99.90, feels amazing. Already told everyone I know :D, started from 123 took me 5.5 months, feels amazing
How I did it ...
I started my weightloss journey ( 24M - 191cm) with healthy eating and a normal exercise routine. I wanted to get into a healthy habit so didn't focus that much on calorie intake I just ate healthy foods and omitted fast food snacks and oily fried foods.
For the first month I continued with my healthy eating habits and walked 10k steps.
From the second month I started doing a little more intensive cardio like jogging and occasionally running. Also started doing a calorie cut from this point. I was already in routine of eating nice so body didn't feel anything.
From the third month I started running, downloaded the Nike run club and followed their getting started program, I ran for 6 days every week depending on their program(it's free and an amazing app must try).
For the past 2.5 months I have started doing strength training and a more calorie deficit, I still follow the nike run club program currently on 5k. I go to the gym 6 days a week after weight training I do abs and cardio sessions.
Still a long way to go my goal is 85kgs

I just downloaded Malwarebytes to do a scan, searched it up and picked the first option which was Malwarebytes.com, then free download where i got directed to Malwarebytes.com/mwb-download/thankyou, seems legit but im not sure
I turned off real time protection (firewall was and is on but i canât find the setting), selected custom scan, ticked all the boxes and started it, it took 25 minutes and found nothing. Now im wondering how i can make Windows Defender run normally and effectivly with it installed. I see a lot of settings including âWindows security centerâ which probably is the key but i donât know how it works and i donât want to take any risks
Hope anyone can help. Thanks in advance

2024.05.15 13:22 Annual-Definition216 F076 has stopped my lad playing even though he has a 1st sub.
As title says. I am absolutely fuming. I have fo76 and got it for zero last month on ps+ essential. I liked it and decided to to purchase americas playground for half price at the time. I also subbed to the 1st.
My lad also downloaded it and enjoyed it. He got 76 for zero on ps+ and also subbed to 1st.
Today, exactly one month later, the game throws up a 4:8:2008 error on his account. So, it transpires that bethesda and sony ripped 76 out of ps+ essential (btw anyone saying its free, thats bs when you pay ÂŁ60+ a year for ps sub) and put it behind the 'premium' ps sub.
Not only that, but the ps+ FO76 was apparantly only a 'free trial'.
So what we have here, is a game that was on ps+, taken away, and my lad has a 1st subscription he paid for, that is still running, and he cant play the game at all, until bethesda get their blood money?
That is absolutely disgusting l, holding a kid to ransom saying he can only play the subscription he paid for if he pays full smash for a game he had for free last month.And both sony and bethesda know exactly what they have done.
Well thats me, my lad, and 2 other family members cancelling and ditching the game.
All that good will to fallout....gone. FU bethesda.

2024.05.15 12:36 AnchorPointsOfficial Anchor Points: Age of Heroes Chapter 9 - Entropy
CHAPTER 9 â ENTROPY
DATE: MARCH 10th, 7 A.U. (AFTER UNIFICATION) LOCATION: SOL SYSTEM, ABOARD UTRN INDOMITABLE WILL
CAPTAIN HENRY OâTOOLE
"Ah, there you are Commander. Your message said there was something you wanted to talk with me about?" Henry asked as his executive officer approached the system map.
âAye Captain, now's a good a time as any. As you know, the rate of disciplinary incidents has more than tripled in the last two weeks. We've had six fistfights, one near strangling, a few dozen counts of sexual harassment amongst different parties, and a few more incidents of a nature that I would rather not get into for fear of derailing the point of this conversation. I need additional resources to allocate towards ship internal security. With your permission, I'd like to borrow some of our more trusted marines to help the MA's out on their off shifts.â Commander Alvarez asked.
âYeah, of course, take what you need to nip this in the bud. I can't say I'm entirely surprised; we expected a certain amount of this with the stresses of FTL travel. With everyone cooped up like this, maybe we should brainstorm some new outlets for the crew. Were there any specific incidents I need to get involved with?â Henry replied as he looked up from the list of updates and reports on his own console.
âNo, I have it covered. It's just the regs state I need to ask permission to use marines for internal security matters.â The Commander waved it off.
âExcellent, continue to keep me in the loop then. Can I ask you a question?â Henry took the opportunity to ask something that had been bothering him.
âYou just did. Hah! Just kidding, put the axe away boy! Now what would you like to know?â He said with a twinkle in his eye.
âI've seen your file, well, the parts that werenât redacted anyway. If anything, I should be taking your orders! I mean, you're the Space Wolf! Nobody came even close to the number of ships captured or destroyed than you in the early days of the battle for the belt. Why would they want me to be captain when they had someone like you coming along the whole time? Why aren't you a captain anymore? By all right this should be your command, not mine.â Henry asked, after taking one last look around to verify they were still alone around the system map.
Commander Alvarez seemed stunned for a moment before he settled into a more pensive look.
âListen, son, you're all full of the vigor and high passions of youth. By that I mean you've got a certain fire and aggression in you, yet I've seen you generally keep it balanced by wit and wisdom. You are a perfect match for the job, even if you could use some more real world experience. With some guidance, you'll do just fine, if you can keep strict standards for yourself and crew and a cool head when things get tough."
"I appreciate that, and I will definitely lean on your experience whenever possible. However, you didn't really answer my question... Why aren't you a captain anymore?"
"I... got a lot of damn good men and women killed in an impossible situation when we lost the Michigan-II, and I never truly got over it. No amount of medals, captured enemy ships, or the fact that I've saved many more lives than I lost can make up for that. I finally found peace with that, but that peace required that I relieve myself of any chance of future command. My legacy, for better or worse, is set in stone. Joining this expedition gives me another chance at adjusting the scales without breaking my former vows, even if the only people who will ever know it are here on the voyage with us.â
âSo, you claim you have no aims or desires for leadership, but here you are a mere heartbeat away from it.â Henry said, carefully studying his executive officer's every reaction.
âMy time for glory is mostly gone, yours is at your feet before you. To the world, I am retired in comfort and isolation. In reality you have me here to help make your will law. You can relax. I already turned down command of this expedition. I was plan A, why do you think they had to scramble to find you? I will take command of this mission only if you are incapable of doing so yourself, Sir. In the meantime, let my experience and whatever wisdom I can offer guide you.â
An emergency alert snapped both of their attention out of their conversation. "There's a fire in one of the officer's cabins?!" Henryâs pulse quickened as he referenced the map to find which one.
âFuck, it started in Chantalâs room!â Henry said, horrified.
âI've got the CIC under control. Go on and get her out of there, I'll send the cavalry."
âThank you, Commander.â Henry called back over his shoulder as he rushed for the quick lift.
The officer cabins were the in the very next deck overhead, so he was able to arrive quickly and break into a sprint. The ship shifted as it dodged some antimatter, causing Henry to slip and scramble back to his feet. As he rounded the corner he saw her door was closed and the keypad powered was off. He could hear thumps and muffled screaming from within the room.
"HANG ON CHANTAL, I'M COMING!" Henry shouted in the hope that she could hear him as he pried at the manual override panel.
Two modified Paladin exo-combat armor suits rounded the corner seconds later with a hospitalman trailing behind pushing a medical cart.
"WE'LL TAKE IT FROM HERE, SIR." A speaker-amplified voice spoke from behind him.
One of the Paladin suits accessed the manual control override and forced the door open enough for the other suit to reach in and pry it the rest of the way open as smoke plumed into the corridor. The second suit charged into the room with its flood lights on as a water cannon mounted on the right wrist sprayed flame retardant from a pack on its back. The first suit abandoned the door control and entered, emerging moments later with Chantal awake and coughing from inside the darkened door frame. She was quickly ushered into cleaner air, set gently down, wrapped in a blanket, and was quickly attended to by a hospitalman who began to check her vitals.
Relief flooded Henryâs mind as his adrenaline surge broke against the wall of worry he had built up during his mad dash from the CIC.
âBaby you came for me! I thought I was going to die in there." She pulled him into a tight embrace as she wept in cathartic release.
"Of course I did! I couldn't stand to lose you, especially not over something like this. So, what the hell happened in there?"
"Well you know me, I was all burning the midnight oil and then I smelled smoke! Then there were some sparks, the outlet pops then whoosh! My computer station and my desk are all ablaze along with half my notes, then the damned door wouldn't work! I had to drop to the floor under the smoke and pound on the door in hopes that someone would hear me. God, it was horrible... I don't think I've ever been so scared in my life." She replied with a deep shudder.
"You're safe now, it's going to be alright."
"I know, but what about my work?" She replied with a forlorn look back at her smoke damaged room.
"What about your work?"
"As you know, I lost a ton of it just now, but whatâs worse is I don't even have the ability to recover them! Remember how I lost my backup drive last week? Like, I know I packed it and it is not here anywhere! Itâs like some sick cosmic joke on me or something. Sorry! Gotta keep it positive, girl! I get to rethink my last few weeksâ worth of work from scratch... that was almost positive! I probably have most of this recoverable from email sent box backups. Fuck, what do you do if there's no good silver lining?â Chantal bemoaned.
Henry couldnât help himself but laugh for a second, while his girlfriend stared at him, waiting for a response.
âIâm sorry, is this funny to you or something?â
âNo, no of course not. This might be one of those times where the only silver lining is that you're alive. Plus, if anyone can remember and rebuild their notes, you can." Henry smiled down at her.
âFine, fine, at least I am alive. I was only breathing smoke for a few seconds after all.â She said, rolling her eyes. âThank you for rushing down here right away anyway, it means a lot. You're amazing, you know.â
Henry smiled, slightly uncomfortable for a moment, so he changed the subject.
âI do my best... Anyway, it seems like these electrical issues seem to be getting worse instead of better. Whatever patch these clowns have slapped on my ship to get her to pass inspection is clearly coming undone. What do you think is going on here?â Henry asked in mild exasperation.
âHonestly, I canât tell you without digging into the systems myself, which I would rather avoid. My plate is full enough as it is right now, especially having to reproduce so much of my own work now. This ship has kilometers of power cables running throughout it, after all, and you have an entire loyal, capable team down there in electrical, so it should only be a matter of time before they sort it out for you. Let them do their jobs without harassing them too much, please?â
Henry felt a little irked at her for not giving him credit to know not to go overboard, but he stowed it, seeing as she ultimately was right.
âThe crew has been under a lot of stress, too, between the technical issues with the lights going out, losing power to workstations, or the constant antimatter threat. More than a few people have tried to convince me to turn us around and return to S33 for a more in-depth refit and repair cycle before we try the mission again. So far, everyone has accepted the fact that we are continuing the mission without much argument, but I fear what may happen if these issues are seen as getting worse. Our orders are clear, though, we must continue the journey.â Henry said, uncomfortable with the implications, even if he didn't dare voice it.
âYou should get on the Q-Comm to report the fire to S33. Maybe they will order us back to base after this.â She offered, looking for a solution to an impossible problem.
âGood idea, at least the Q-Comm is still working. Itâs incredible to me those particles maintained their entanglement once we passed through the baryonic barrier. That alone has been a huge morale boost, being able to contact home base with no time lag.â Henry replied.
âItâs incredible to you because you only have a basic grasp of the science, hon. But thatâs alright, very few people truly understand it. Thatâs in part what you have me here for anyway. Einstein called the effect spooky action from a distance; I always liked that line.â
Henry ran his fingers through his hair and looked at Chantal, with a shake of his head and a smile.
âListen, Henry, I just had a crazy stressful experience and I need to unwind. Plus, I havenât slept in almost a day, so I am bone tired. Letâs go to bed, huh? What do you say doc, am I clear to go?â Chantal asked.
The hospitalman closed her eyes and shook her head before responding. "Yes, you are cleared to rest, and only to rest, do you understand me?"
Chantal mouthed a thank you before she took Henry by the hand and led him off to the captainâs quarters. Henry felt no desire to fight it, nor flaw with her reasoning. Sleep sounded good, really good. Plus, he was about an hour from the start of his sleep shift anyway, and Alvarez had the CIC well covered. The lights flickered again, but Henry very purposefully ignored it.
âHey, since we have a little time and we are both a little wound up, Why donât we take a shower together real quick?â She said with genuine enthusiasm and a wink.
âMadam, I like the way you think.â The couple raced just a bit faster than regulations would have liked, and arrived at his door in record speed.
Inside the room they fell upon each other in great passion and need, stripping each other out of their BDUâs and underclothes. Henry tossed a giggling Chantal onto the bed, and proceeded to kiss her neck and nibble on her ear causing her to purr in anticipation before he moved down her chest, past her navel, and then eagerly began to move his kisses in between her thighs.
âHahâŠ. I havenât showered. Are you sure? Oooookay! I thinkâŠ. HahâŠ. Okay.â She said breathlessly as Henry began to work his tongue until she began to shiver and squirm before she cried out as she melted in his mouth.
âEnough, please, I canât take it anymore! Just fuck me already!â Chantal pulled herself together enough to beg for it. Henry stood rigid and ready and set himself to granting her request, first slowly, and then with a growing intensity. She once more began to squirm as he paid close attention to her hipâs cues, knowing very well by now what she liked.
As she climaxed again, Henry lifted her from the bed and pushed her up against the wall, and then bent her over his desk for a bit before he could take it no longer and they finished together.
âHoly shit⊠my legs arenât gonna work for a bit after that one. Help me up?â Chantal said in between shallow breaths.
âYes, maâam. It would be my pleasure.â Henry said as he helped her to her feet and into the shower, staying in longer than was strictly necessary.
Henry left the steam first, once more thankful that his cabin included its own small bathroom, rather than a communal one. Being captain had its perks, after all. He grabbed a towel and wrapped it around his waist, then handed another to Chantal who gratefully accepted it before it dropped to the ground as she stared straight past him.
âHenry!" She squeaked as she pointed past him.
"What?" Henry asked, confused.
"Henry, someone was in here!â
On their bathroom mirror, wiped from the steam were the words TURN BACK.
Henry's blood ran cold and his adrenaline spiked him into overdrive. He waved Chantal back into the shower and put his finger to his lips. She nodded then wrapped herself in her retrieved towel and dropped to the shower floor with her arms wrapped around her knees, whimpering slightly. Henry moved silently along the wall, watching the visible half of his room for any movement. He then burst round the door frame, only to find everything perfectly, precisely as they had left it. The shock of finding nothing collided with the spike of his adrenaline surge, which only fed his growing unease.
âThereâs nobody here!â Henry called out after checking the closet, the only other place someone could have hidden.
âDid you lock the door?â Chantal asked, her mind already working on the mystery.
âI set the security protocol to auto lock every time it closes.â
âPaul. We need to talk to Paul.â Chantal said, squeezing her BDUâs up over her hips with a few hops. Henry pulled on his undershirt before tossing over her bra.
âWhy would we want to bring that weasel into this?â Henry asked, incredulous at to how he could possibly help.
âBecause he has access to the surveillance tapes, why else?â
Henry stared at Chantal, brimming with rage, trying his hardest to keep it isolated to Paul over the invasion of his privacy.
âDid you just say surveillance tapes!?!â Henry asked in an icy tone. âThat does it, Iâm going to strangle him.â Henry said, moving with a purpose toward the door.
âStop. Turn around and give me a kiss. I already disabled the video cameras, at least all the ones I could find. He has audio at best, even that I doubt. What he does have that I want is the data from the motion sensor that he had installed just in case you found the more obvious bugs. Unfortunately, I sabotaged its effectiveness by blocking the sensor with dense foam, but there might be enough of something to give us a clue."
âHow in the hell do you know about all of this anyway, and why the hell didnât you tell me?!â Henry roared.
âThis entire enterprise is run by an intelligence agency; how can you not have seen that one coming a mile away? I have gotten very good at catching bugs over the years. Just because I expect the invasion of privacy to be happening, doesnât mean I have to make it easy on them. Just be happy I already took care of the issue, alright?â She replied firmly while staring him in the eyes with raised eyebrows.
âYouâre incredible, I love you.â Henry blurted out before he could catch himself. Chantal beamed and tackled him to the bed sitting on his lap.
âWhat took you so long? Never mind, donât answer that. I love you too, man have I wanted to say that one for a while now.â
âYou know these things arenât easy for me. I had to be sure, I also didnât want to mess anything up. We need to be able to work together even if we had turned out to be a bad couple.â Henry admitted, Chantal made an show as she thought it over, but she then smiled and helped Henry to his feet.
âAlright, my captain. You speak great wisdom. While I have certainly felt, and thoroughly enjoyed, the depths of your passion, it is really nice to hear about it too. I do think it makes it all the better that you rule said passion with reason. Itâs just one of the many things I love about you.â She said, laying her hand over his heart.
Henry took her other hand and kissed it before replying. âI think above all, I wanted to make sure that I didnât take you for granted, nor suffer the same in reverse. A wise woman once gave me some great advice there that I have taken to heart.â
âOkay, Romeo, maybe you have a better handle on these things than you think. Now⊠Letâs go interrogate Paul.â Chantal had a fire in her eyes that Henry was loving very much at that moment.
âI have wanted to turn the screws on that spook for a while now.â Henry smiled as he spoke, and he opened up the connection to the shipâs intranet through his neural implant to send a message.
MEET ME IN YOUR QUARTERS IN 5 MINUTES FOR A DISCUSSION OF CRITICAL IMPORTANCE â CPT. O'TOOLE
âThat ought to get him there and alone.â Henry smirked. âLetâs go.â
Together, they made their way to Paulâs equivalent-sized quarters, which he had somehow secured for himself in the ship design to help facilitate his role as the official thorn in Henryâs paw. I guess being the captainâs handler has its perks as well. Henryâs eye twitched at the corner.
After making them wait far too long, Paul opened the door and gesturing them inside. The door closed and Paul turned towards them, narrowing his eyes, studying them both.
âIs this about the fire?â Paul asked before Henry punched the weasel right in the diaphragm, forcing him to gasp for air. The look of shock on his face as he bent forwards was priceless.
âWhat the fuck, Henry!?â Paul managed to choke out after a minute between gasps.
âRelax, I didnât do any permanent damage, yet.â Henry said, Paul for just a second showed actual fear in his eyes before he sneered in defiance. âOh? That got your attention, did it? Why were you spying on me?â Henry growled.
Paul closed his eyes, dropped his head, and began to laugh before Henry grabbed him by the throat and slammed him into the wall. Foolishly, Paul even then kept laughing amidst the gasping. So Henry squeezed until Paul started slapping his arm, looking genuine fear once more growing across his face.
âOrders⊠I was following orders!â Paul managed to say amidst gasps and coughs.
âI thought it might be something like that. You're going to open up those files, now, and you're going to show me everything.â Henry said, dropping him to his feet at last.
âFucking hell, Henry, I thought you of all people would have anticipated this was going to be the case. Do you think the people who made this all possible would simply let you fly around the most dangerous, advanced warship in human history without some insurance?â
âDonât try and weasel out of your own personal culpability here. You may also want to think back to other people who were âonly following ordersâ while performing acts they knew were wrong before you wave that line around like some get out of jail free card.â The fact that he had nothing to say spoke volumes.
âYou should have told me, Paul.â Henry growled.
âThat defeats the purpose! Plus, your girlfriend sabotaged them all before we ever left S33 anyway, and once more after! That type of tech doesnât just grow on trees you know, and I donât have an unlimited supply. You should be thanking me for covering for her and reporting back like things are normal!â Paul shouted in indignation.
âThis is pointless, show me the files from around fifteen minutes ago, motion trackers, thermals, anything you have that's not blocked or sabotaged.â Henry commanded. Paulâs eyes narrowed, but after a long moment he huffed and closed his eyes.
Paul then sat down at his station and fired it up.
âLike I said, I've got practically nothing. No video, muffled audio and readings from what I assume to be a faulty motion sensor, thatâs it. What are we looking for?â
âChantal and I were, well, together. After we got out of the shower we saw that someone had written turn back in the condensation on the bathroom mirror. Only problem? My door auto locks when closed and only opens for my biometrics. That is why all of this even came up in the first place.â
âMotherfucker. That's a whole heap of bad news.â Paul said. Henry merely nodded, paying rather more attention to the screen to see if he could catch Paul in a lie about the extent of the spying.
âThereâs nothing. No disturbances in the air that would even remotely resemble human movement between you two getting in the shower and you charging into your bedroom. With the noise of the shower and the distance to the microphone, there is nothing I can discern that is anomalous. You can see it all right here for yourself.â
Henry found himself even more confused and alarmed than before.
âHow is that possible? Look again, run through some filters or something. There must be some evidence somewhere!â
âAlright, relax, I will get to work on this and get you a report by the end of C shift. In the meantime, you look like a mess. Get some sleep man! I can take care of it from here. Oh, and I want you to remember that I forgave you quite magnanimously for that little episode back there where you attacked me.â Henry and Chantal gave each other a look as Paul spoke.
âWasnât gonna apologize anyway, you had it coming. Iâm going to hit the rack. I expect that report to be detailed and ready when I get up.â Henry took Chantal by the hand, and they left together, not waiting for a response.
âWhat a snake. Did you see him in there? Zero guilt or recognition whatsoever about spying like that. It just makes my skin crawl. Gives me bad memories.â Chantal said, turning pensive and quiet.
âDo you want to talk about it?â Henry asked, seeing that there was something clearly bothering her.
âI⊠had an uncle that lived with us from time to time and he would spy on me when I was dressing, try and sneak looks in the shower, stuff like that. Never touched me or anyone else that I know of, thank god, but man did it screw me up a bit still. Played havoc with my sense of security and even my sanity, never being quite sure it was real or all in my head. I wish I had said something, but I was afraid everyone would think I was overreacting or imagining it. I saw it in his eyes though, that look of... predatory lust. At least I didn't see anything like that in Paul's eyes. To this day it makes my skin crawl.â
âGood God, I can see how alone you must have felt in the middle of all that.â He squeezed her hand, she smiled up at him.
âYeah, that was one of the hardest parts. I donât think Paul is some raging pervert or anything, but it concerns me how normalized it was to him. Even if he isnât being a creep with it, as if we can take his claims to be covering for me at face value. There is still no way I am going to let him have easy access to intimate videos of us, if I can possibly help it.â Chantal said before adding, âIâll be all right, donât worry about me. Letâs just get some sleep.â
Henry put his palm against the biometric scanner outside his room and the door slid open for them. They definitely needed some sleep after the emotional roller coaster of the past few hours, and the irresistible warm embrace of his bed called for him. The Q-Comm report could wait until he woke, he decided.
Better to have the electrical inspection ordered up, too.
I WANT A FULL REPORT AND INSPECTION PERFORMED ON THE ELECTRICAL FIRE IN CHANTALâS ROOM BY THE START OF A SHIFT. â CAPT. O'TOOLE
Good enough. Henry thought as he sent the message. Now he could sleep. The chief could handle it from there.
MEANWHILEâŠ
DATE : MARCH 10th, 7 A.U. LOCATION: SOL SYSTEM, ABOARD UTRN INDOMITABLE WILL
FIREMAN APPRENTICE SARAH CALLAHAN
It'll be back again tonight...
Sarahâs haunted thoughts repeated like a mantra. She had to be ready, but how? Her skin crawled and itched, the long sleeves of her BDUâs prevented her from being able to do anything about the painful sensation from the inflamed scratches they hid. She blearily rubbed at her sunken eyes, and she drained the rest of her coffee. All the numbers on the screen had started bleeding in together and her eyes hurt horribly, with the throbbing pain in her abdomen only compounding her misery.
âMy god, Sarah, you look a wreck, hon. How have you been sleeping?â Yvonne, her shift partner asked, with concern in her voice.
âI have a monster tension headache, I just hope the meds kick in soon. Can you check my math? I need to get out of these white lights for a few minutes. Close my eyes for a bit, something, anything. I've been having nightmares again.â Sarah felt good, being able to admit it, and Yvonne had long since proven her friendship, so it was easier to actually speak.
âYeah, no prob. As soon as I am done here I will check your readings and we can get out of here. Do you mean nightmares from the invasion?â Yvonne asked, carefully picking her words and tone.
âKind of the same general themes, but different. Everything is going wrong, like the worst possible outcomes of my worst nightmares are all combining together. Like, it feels actively malicious, I don't know, its hard to explain...â Sarah said, bleakly.
âThatâs hard, I am sorry. You need a shower, and an uninterrupted nap. Sleep deprivation plays all kinds of hell on the body and mind. I had a friend who went through an insomniac phase so extreme he would go days without sleeping. Wound up in the hospital after trying to drive to work while hallucinating his dead fiancĂ©e was sitting in the passenger seat screaming at him to watch out. Wound up rear-ending the car in front of him. Thank God he lived to tell the tale, but that is why it worries me to see you like this.â Yvonne planted her hand on Sarahâs shoulder as she told the story.
âYikes, I think I slept like two hours into my sleep shift before I started having the nightmares again, woke up, and passed in and out of some restless sleep. It got really bad around oh three hundred. There were sounds... noises like scratching and a loud bang, and the shadows were moving. I just kept feeling like I was being watched, but everyone else seemed to be having disturbed sleep in their bunks. God, it was a creepy feeling.â Sarah took a moment to compose herself.
âI know how crazy this will sound, maybe that I am sleep deprived and likely hallucinating like your friend, but just hear me out. There was something there Yvonne, in the dark at the edge of perception, I could feel it. I also know I wasnât the only one tossing and turning either. I could also hear scratchy whispering, too. I just hid, strapped in under the weighted blanket. At some point I slept some more, I must have, but not for what felt like a few stressful and draining hours. I'm just making a total mess of explaining this, arenât I?â
âNo, you're fine, girl! I am sorry that happened, my dorm has been pretty quiet, but I have always slept like a rock. Is there anything I can do?â
âI could use a hug.â Sarah said, which caused Yvonne to laugh, breaking some of the tension. They embraced warmly for a good minute, which did wonders for relieving some of the headache and her black mood.
âThanks, Yvonne, I know itâs all in my head and itâs a vicious feedback cycle due to lack of quality sleep. Thanks for listening without calling me crazy.â Sarah said, shying away from the last thing she hadnât the courage to say.
She didnât dare mention how she had hidden under the covers as she felt it get near. How she had felt something pushing on the mattress. How as her fear peaked, she herself peeked over the covers to find nothing there just to have the oppressive feeling evaporate along with the sensation of pressure by her feet. Her dorm mates all seemed to stop stirring after that, and only then did the nightmares stop for her that night. By then she was left with barely enough time for one last short sleep cycle before the start of A shift that very morning. This was a secret she would have to keep to herself, nobody would believe her anyway.
âI think I'll ask the Chief for a break from my duties today to rest and to visit med bay. Maybe they can give me something to help catch back up on my sleep.â Sarah said.
âGood idea, can I come with? Iâll back you up.â Yvonne said. Sarah smiled at her friend before she nodded at her before they checked off the last of their duties on site and headed away to find the Chief.

2024.05.15 12:20 Quandalf [LW1] NEW SCOUT TREE (modding) - Watcha think?
| Maybe gonna make a mod reworking the LW perk trees. Just a thing I like to do. Check out this SCOUT tree I came up with and gimme your opinion! In general the rework aims at having the class defining perks earier. In the case of the Scout: Hit&Run/ ITZ/ Conceal. (It makes the game a bit easier, oh my!) Basically you can use the defining tactics earlier and also better replace high level loses. Left side is the 'Marksmanrifle Flanking Scout' path Center is the 'ITZ Cleaner DMG Dealer' possibly rifle/ shotgun Right side 'the Concealment actual Scout' / light concealed Engineer I thought a lot about this and tested it out, so just looking for some feedback! Here's a crappy graph, below the detailed explanation: https://preview.redd.it/1xq4fvhz7k0d1.png?width=704&format=png&auto=webp&s=263d75f79cd99b62e64cdbaf2fffa21a206e9477 [LW 'Vanilla' Scout tree here: https://www.ufopaedia.org/index.php?title=Scout_(Long_War)) ] LCPL: Low Profile - Aggression - Smoke & Mirrors Right from the start you have to decide wether you go for coveflanking, crit/dmg or scouting/nades - the general direction of the build. CPL: Good Ground - Bring'em On - Battle Scanners This is basically a decicion between uber flanking dmg (for ITZ/HitRun) or Battle Scanners. If you really want the highest dmg - you have to go for a scout w/o scanners and nobody likes to do that. Damn Good Ground is here as a kinda niche stand-in: It synergizes very well with LowPro and the Marksmanrifle, since there's much low cover in heights and the Marksmanrifles has great range from up high. Turns the scout into a dedicated marksman sniper, the additional +10 def well appreciated. [Thought about making this a two-perk decision only, Bring'em and Scanners, better to leave Ground in as 3rd option tho.] SGT: Hit'n Run - In The Zone - Concealment Early the deciding perks. Why wait? 2000XP takes quite a while to reach. This is where the rubber meets the road, deciding the path of the scout, giving you access to basic tatcics earlier. TSGT: Opportunist - Deadeye - Tactical Sense Lvl 4 is rather weak, additonal perks, that synergize well with previous decisions. This way you maybe actually take Tactical Sense - which is a great perk for every Scout running overwatches. Opportunist is awesome with the Marksman rifle. Remember in LW it is the only gun that procs overwatch in squadsight. You'll love it! Deadeye is valuable for ITZ chains, so the damn flyers don't interrupt your chain and also low hp flyers (no cover) are prime ITZ clean-up targets. GSGT: Ranger - Extra Conditioning - Resilience A hard decision. All 3 perks are good for all builds. Sidearms proc with Hit&Run - which is why Ranger is on the Marksman side and gives it an option for close shots, although it is liked by ITZ scouts too for the additional +1dmg on the primary. Alone the 1 movement point of ExtraCon can be worth it for positoning & flanking. Especially since ITZ scouts rather take Vital Targeting and not Sprinter in the next level and so you still get some speed this time. Resilience is always important especially for the risky business of concealment and also leads to a scout being able to do without the Chameleon Suit - which basically gives one more free slot to use. MSGT: Sprinter - Vital Targeting - Packmaster More movement more damage or more utility? This rounds the builds. Sprinter comes late but is always worth it, for flanking shots, there-and-back Hit&Runs or just for extended concealed scouting on large UFO maps. Vital with +2 dmg on main and +1 on secondary is also nice for all builds, maybe essential for ITZ kills. Packmaster turns the Concealment Scout into a limited, covert engineer. Many battlecanners possible! You could carry 3 smokes, flashes and chems this way, if you leave motion trackers etc at home, but remember that engineers always have way more range from grenadier and bombard. I hope this makes the Concealed/ Supportgrenade scout build a real option even for impossible ironman runs. I packed in some punch in this tree and had to get rid of Flush, Holo and Lone Wolf for the new perks Resilience, Opportunist and Packmaster. Kind of a shame, especially for Holo which synergizes with Hit&Run, I personally won't miss it on a scout tho. Flush is weird with a Marksmanrifle and it is great in other builds, yet didn't do it for me on scouts who already have high aim. Lone Wolf is a great idea, I never took it tho, since overall it is too weak and too situational. It lost some options, but overall this scout tree is much stronger. Check out what Casey wrote on Scouts on his substack btw: https://xcom.substack.com/p/long-war-class-builds-scout?utm_source=publication-search submitted by Quandalf to Xcom [link] [comments] |
2024.05.15 11:36 Not-explaining eFootball wishlist to Konami v2.2 (38 wishes)
| eFootball gameplay seem to be going in a bad direction for the past months. To much AI defending/assistance/game balancing, game adding input lag, interceptions, poor passing, fouls not called for, hot potato football not rewarding any type of skillful play. The gameplay feels like its on rails, freedom is gone, players don't respond to your inputs and chances are created by either teams AI players mistakes or incredibly stupid runs. It's just not fun to play anymore. Neither online or vs AI. eFootball could be fantastic if Konami would listen to ideas, criticism and improve. Here is my wishlist. Feedback based on me and the kids playing on PS4, PS5 and mobile. Offline and online. - Reduce the heavy AI assistance / game-balancing / handholding / Auto defending / Dynamic Difficulty / momentum / whatchamacallit (scr...). I understand its for getting new players staying in the game, having a chance getting coins in the events and winning games. And perhaps make games more non-predictable "anything can happen, maybe". With the current AI handholding level its "anything will happen, constantly". So many chances are created by either teams AI players making mistakes or just making incredibly stupid runs, its like a badly scripted B-movie. The amount of goalpost hits and missed open goals is just silly currently, this goes on until the last few minutes of each match. Please reduce it, or even remove it from Co-op and other game modes where skill should be rewarded. I'd rather get smashed 15-0 and learn from a good player. Than having to play another game with: added input lag and your players turn, react with 0,5 sec delay / 1 team loses every header / 4 shots in goalpost / own goals / missed open goals from 2-3m consequently, instead you have to run the ball into goal!!! / hide n seek players with pass receiver running away from the ball positioning behind defender / every ball intercepted / misdirected passes / every pass straight to other team / passes goes through "invisible" player / player freezing or even running wrong direction vs your stick / opponent attacking with high punt or lofted pass but your defender running past the ball towards opposition goal / ball glued to opposite player in the box / every attempt clearing the ball goes short distance straight to other team, even goalie high punt / all stunning shots 3m over the goal before 85min + all the other crap that's in there. This gameplay on rails is so unrewarding. If I manage to do something skillfull the AI assistance just kills the opportunity with any means. When the AI assistance takes a break, I get an easy goal with no effort from a random through pass + tap in. Many times I can't tell if I am playing well or the game has decided I should win/loose, it kills the joy for me and it's just boring. If Konami could tone down all the weird punishments I'd be very grateful.
- Passing and interceptions. Currently worst ever IMO. Game just decides your pass from a player in balance is 90-180 degrees of straight to opponent. Even on Beginner AI and no matter PA1, 2 or 3đ And the constant interceptions. No flow in the game. Please work on this Konami.
- Remove the artificial input-lag. Stop punishing one side with artificial input lag which make the gameplay feel heavy, unresponsive and your players turn & react with 0,5sec delay. This is not from server lag as it's there in AI matches and local Trial matches as well, just switch controller between team 1 & 2 and feel the difference. Sometimes it activates in 2nd half, sometimes from beginning of game, usually when you are doing well. I assume its part of the game balancing mechanics. For me this is one of the worst things in the current game, when it kicks in your players don't respond to inputs in time and gameplay just feels awful.
- Fix the player freezing. Example: after losing a header to last defender suddenly your attacker just freezes. What's going on here? Have Konami added to much AI handholding and broken the game? đđđ
- Reward different playstyles like build up play. Currently most games seem to be high press, interception ping-pong, quick pass and no dribbles. Hot potato football. Holding the ball has become very difficult. Before the AI assistance and auto defending went berzerk, you could actually keep the ball for a second and do something creative. Without 3-5 guys surrounding your player with no options. Now the gameplay is boring with the lack of variety.
- Create a game mode free from AI assistance & artificial input lag. Just pure skill. It could be beta, division free or whatever just let us play without the heavy AI handholding. And maybe eFootball will be esports ready đ. To be honest if another football game is released without momentum/game-balancing /added input-lag and with gameplay based on pure skill. I think eFootball will lose a lot of players.
- Add Dream team into Trial match. We have 2 kids who love the card collecting and building their team. But playing online is of no interest to them, and won't be in many years. They want to play local PvP or co-op but with their own Dream team. By now we are very tired of playing the same local play Trial match Argentina Vs PSG. The kids have almost stopped playing eFootball, since they cant play against each other with their own team. In addition this would be a great way to test out new players, builds and game mechanics together with a friend. Much more fun than training mode. This mode is what my family is missing most from this game. And if it would be a "pure" mode without any momentum/game-balancing things would be fantastic. Just pure skill, best player wins.
- Please add Dream team to Trial match local co-op Vs AI. Would be so much fun to test your Dream Team against the AI together with the kids or a friend on the couch beside you. Would love this mode if it would become available.
- Add local co-op in Events. Would be great if me and the kids could take on the events together. At least add it to the AI events. Then we would actually play them and not just sim them.
- Myleague local co-op. Add both local and online co-op into Myleague please. A reason to play it and win the league together with the kids đ
- Make My League worth playing. 100.000GP for completing 38 matches and winning the league is very poor IMO. Add some skill trainers and raise the GP perhaps?
- Add all Goal Scorers and Assisters to Half Time and Full Time game stats. So we can quickly get the overview of who performed well in both teams. That information would be highly appreciated.
- Contract renewal is way too expensive. Considering many players have paid plenty in real money to get the favourite players, and you only get to keep your player for 1 year. We are paying for this digital football Pokémon and we can't even use it as long as we would like. There should be more ways to get contract renewals, the periods should be longer, 3/6/9/12months and the price should be lower. Currently it's just irritating and another killing the fun factor.
- Make each playstyle worth using. And reward playing different type of formations. Instead of everyone using META 4 defenders and no wingers/LMF/RMF.
- Better & more expensive Point shop players. Can we please have some decent players? I'd gladly spend 50000-100000 pink points for a player if his stats are good. IMO there hasn't been an interesting player since Ferrer & Pires. Currently I don't see any use for points except contact renewal.
- Remove the GP cost for player reset. Having to wait for 2-3 months and then stressing for a few free weeks to retrain and test new builds doesn't make sense. GP is too valuable for me, I use it for Legacy Transfer and Contract renewal, and the few occasional GP buys for Events or hidden gems. I enjoy training players and trying out new builds, if free it would keep me logging in even when there is nothing else to do in the game.
- Reduce the cost for Legacy transfer. Getting your wanted skills and then transferring to your favourite player is one of the game aspects I really like. But 257,000 GP for one transfer is a lot and takes away much of the fun in Legacy transfer. You get 1 Mbappe for less than 2 Legacy transfer. I am always low on GP these days, and I think 100,000-150,000 GP would be reasonable for Legacy transfer for 1 skill.
- Legacy transfer of skills to POTW cards. If we could add 1-2 skills to the POTW the cards would be more interesting and I'd spend more coins spinning. We would get more varied and unpredictable squads instead of everybody using the same players. Most players know the good cards, what to expect from opponents cards and how to counter. Lets say you add some strong passing or shooting skills to a player usually weak in that aspect. The unpredicability would be awesome!
- Replace/delete added skills. Building players would be much more fun if I could replace a trained skill with another one using legacy transfer. Or just be able to delete an added skill. Perhaps my playstyle changes and I want Neymar to have Through passing instead of the previously added Long-range shooting.
- GP an option for pack spins. But it shouldn't be easy. Hard grind should be rewarded as it gives a reason to play the game. I am thinking 7,5M GP you get 75 spins in a 150 pack. That takes perhaps 6 months to grind. And perhaps the remaining 75 spins is coins only. Lower thresholds like 10 spins för 1M GP would be great but I understand its not gonna happen, as it would hurt the coin sales.
- Remove the 500 player cap or reduce cost of adding player slots. If you are grinding skill trainers with 0GP players and training players the 500 fills up quite easily. Or reduce the 500.000GP for an extra 50 players to maybe 100.000GP. This 500 player limit is very annoying and seems unnecessary.
- Add skill trainers and position trainers to each match pass. Would make the Match Pass way more interesting and I would spend coins.
- Make it worthwhile playing League / divisions. Currently I don't see much reason to play it. A few skill trainers and low GP reward can't motivate me spending the time.
- Find a way to prevent players from forfeiting games, at least events and co-op. Maybe if you are down a few goals sometimes add a random bonus like score with player X to receive 1 skill trainer, 10000 GP or something. Just to motivate players completing the match. Or create a non forfeit streak, like 10, 20 or 30 games without forfeit and you get an free extra POTW spin. (Part of this idea is from efootball universe originally)
- 1st celebration should also be skippable. It's just time consuming in online games. Not adding any value to except maybe noobs who scored their first goal ever.
- An option to make Sub tactic clearly visible in Game plan if activated. I played to many games now without knowing I had sub-tactic activated đ
- Matchmaking. This was good for a while after the matchmaking update, but not anymore. There must be something seriously wrong here. When playing in Division 9 to 7, we constantly get division 1-2 opponents in the events. Had top 120 and top 200 in a row even. 750M downloads and nobody else playing. Really?
- The daily penalty needs an upgrade. Suggestion: More fun If I could choose player from my Dream Team. And add random Epic goalies to spice it up đ
- Add statistics of headers, penalties and free kicks scored on each player card. This would add value and make it more interesting building squads. Konami you have the data, use it!
- More variety in Events. BBVA, Turkish, Brazilian Italian, English, Japan league. Over and over and over... Cmon Konami create something different so we can rotate our squads more. Suggestion: An event where only max 4 star players are allowed? Or higher GP rewards the weaker squad you use? (idea is partly from Rockchok)
- More Beat the Clock type of events. Both me and the kids enjoyed this one. Create something similar for skill moves. Example: Perform 5 Double touch + 5 Marseille turn across pitch with fixed dummies or defending players. Or a sequence where you have to perform skill move x and y before scoring.
- Objectives with extra bonuses. Add weekly objectives or similar. Score a hat-trick, win on penalties or score 5 times using skill move. And get some type of rewards, GP, Skill trainers, Position trainers, avatars, whatever just variety and something to play for.
- Co-op events. So much potential but the gameplay on rails, AI assistance and the constant random AI punishments kills the fun for me. You feel almost instantly if the AI assistance is on your side or against you. Either everything goes your way and it's too easy or Epics can't make a simple pass, the input lag kicks in and your player is even dragged out of position so the other team can score. Every game feels pre-decided with almost every touch being a mistake or fumble by the team who is supposed to concede a goal. Or its 1 goal back and forth with short sequences where the conceeding team can't touch the ball. In my experience the AI assistance is at its worst in the Co-op games. Quite easy to spot as players regularly just drop the controller. And game continues to auto defend like prime AC Milan, the non-active player is forcefielded holding the ball, every ball in the box is magically sucked to defenders feet and passes and clearings going 90-180 degrees off straight to opponent. Recent example which has happened in several co-op games: Goalie makes several stupid run outs to a perfect 4 man defending line, leaving the net wide open. Changing goalie doesn't help. Same thing with 2nd goalie until opponent gets his 2 goals. Sorry but when my player, gameplay and result is controlled by AI instead of me and my teammate I lose interest.
- Add 2nd local player to co-op events. Why can't 2 players join the co-op events together from one Playstation? Me and the kids would play co-op events a lot if this was possbile.
- Booster player forms. Wirtz card and several other are never on A-form. Whats the point of creating a booster card then? (credit: PES Pepe)
- Communication. Info on gameplay changes in each update would be appreciated. Like before. (credit: PES Pepe)
- Heavy first touch or fumble receiving the ball. +90 Ball control player cant receive a pass without starting to fumble or needing several seconds to gain control, then losing the ball, again and again and again. Does stats even matter when game balancing just decides anyway?
- Don't launch Crossplay with mobile. I suspect the recent braindead heavy assisted gameplay is needed for upcoming crossplay console & mobile update. This might be what we are getting. Gameplay on rails, autodefend, no skill, unrewarding, boring. I hope I am wrong and the previous fun gameplay on console is not gone forever đą.
- Master League? Promised some years ago. I guess it does not generate enough coin sales?
- Edit mode. Create a custom crest and kits for our dream team.
- AI games are boring and inconsistent. Even on easier difficulties the game balancing makes you miss so many chances in 1st half, open goals whatever. Then in 2nd its just walk the ball into box and quick shot goal. But if you decide to pass the ball in the box then it's magnet to defender, why not reward passing in the box? The inconsistency in the AI is just bad. And the coding seems lazy. I watch our 11 year old play and do all the right things, but the game just kills all her self-created chances. On harder difficulties even if I read the play and position perfectly to intercept a pass, the pass goes straight through my defender. And adding to that the constant interceptions and not being able to hold ball more than 0.3sec. To my understanding the AI was better before without having to cheat, instead it was actually playing smarter. How hard is it to develop AI gameplay which is both fun, rewarding and teaching how to play better?
Some of these are cosmetics and should be quite easy to implement, whereas others like new type of events takes more effort. Dream team in Trial mode and adding already existing local Co-op to more events/game modes shouldn't be that difficult. Gameplay affecting changes are likely hard and need to be tested so it doesn't affect game in a negative way. I guess Konami calculates profits are better by pushing all players to online play. But at the same time they are neglecting the player group which prefers offline, and are willing to buy coins to get their favourite players cards. Hopefully Konami will reconsider and add a proper Master League and more offline couch co-op and PvP modes with Dream Team. All in all it should result in a more enjoyable experience for both ballers, casuals, squad-builders, card-collectors and those who just want local couch co-op or PvP with their Dream team. More people having fun and spending time in the game usually results in praise, recommendations and growing user count = more coins spent. Konami keeps earning and customer base is happy. Everyone wins. / Cheers and thanks for reading https://preview.redd.it/tgqd1sk95l0d1.jpg?width=781&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9637a6fe552cd851465c7b3ab70461eb4776ecb0 submitted by Not-explaining to eFootball [link] [comments] |
2024.05.15 11:24 exiledw How can i download Apex?
I made an account to play apex like 4 days ago (new player) and to this day i cant do anything to install the game properly...
So i just registered EA account and downloaded the usual EA app... and started downloading on 500gb free space drive to make sure it can download whatever it wants... Whenever it downloads 99% of the game at 100% its "calculating" then removes everything from install folder and starts download from 0 MB again... Whats interesting ME legendary edition (125GB) installed properly without issues... No i dont use steam...
Things i have tried:
1.Restarting all network devices at home.
2.Reinstalling whole system doesnt matter if its 10 / 11 version of windows (clean after format with drivers from windows update / manufacturer).
3.Clearing cache that they suggest to do.
4.Reinstalling the app completely with traces removed.
5.Turning off all firewalls / defenders / antiviruses / antiexploits / adding exceptions.
6.Installing origin with ea app block prevention patch.
7.Trying to install the game with origin... just gives an error after 75gb of download and starts again.
8.Using different hard drive to install the game.
So after nothing worked when i had 98% of download ready i paused it in ea app... went to the folder of apex install and copied all to make a backup... then proceeded with download... after it removed everything i copied backup to the install folder and ran origin to fix it... it removed the extension type that downloads make to make it normal files without any python scripts... then ran EA app to try to repair... after all of that its still downloading but instead of 80gb its downloading 25gb of data that its removing over and over... doesnt matter what i do... Whats bad about it is that i can stop ea app at 99% then go to old origin to hit play and game will start with EAC running and i can play 1-2 matches before it gives me engine error... Is there any way i can solve this problem? Or its impossible to play this game at all today? What can i do to even start and play the game normally?
