I’m looking forward to the vids once someone makes more WH40K assets.

Nah, don’t bother. FO4 is missing a lot. It’s like a game manifestation of The Institute: a paltry few actual personalities completely subsumed by a great host of mindless automatons.

Isn’t there also a huge disparity between the number of rounds (and, obviously, the caliber of each round) that the A-10 and F-35 carry?

It’s okay, man. Have a drink. We’re all friends here.

I often do this when I don’t know how some new thing will work, or when the games tells me something will happen but then it doesn’t.

Yeah, this sounds like an improvement. On the damage bit, I’ve been playing with a mod that changes the impact of the current Survival setting so that you and NPCs do 2x damage. No one takes a damage nerf. Basically combat is more deadly (for both sides) This rewards skill without creating bullet sponges. If I read…

Yay for the tank love! I’m still looking forward to one of those huge infographics that shows all of our armored and infantry units.

I’m kinda happy about this. Instead of using pre-orders to gauge the interest in a game (a gage which is often based on no actual experience with the game), bring back demos and track demo playtime. If your demo pis picked up and dropped within an hour, doubtful that will be a purchase. If people keep playing the demo…

Hi Jason,

You know, this is wonderful. I think this article has, in kind of a backasswards way, reignited my desire to play/finish Awakenings. I stopped after what feels like the beginning of the 2nd act because I wasn’t having fun anymore. The battles were getting tedious, there were too many characters on the board, I was…

Jesus, it’s been so long. But you’re right. Wolf Priest = Chaplain. Rune Priest = Librarian.

I’ve actually had a lot of success going against some of these.

Yep. When I set up an ambush, I’ve stopped putting my Rangers in overwatch. Because unless they’re super close, they’ll most likely miss. And some jerk always seems to escape the ambush and hide behind something. That’s when my Rangers, who haven’t moved that turn yet, dash and slice!

Bring on Dawn of War 3!

I’m gonna nerd out for a sec. This guy looks like a Space Wolf. If that’s true, then since his armor is black, it means he’s a Rune Priest, the Wolves version of a Chaplain. Any Chaplain worth his scepter carries a rosarius, which is a necklace that projects an invisible bubble of limited invincibility around its…

Don’t worry, he has a fusion reactor backpack. I’m sure he’s warm enough.

Boring. There’s already mods that do all this save the Fa Haba one.

I’ve been modding the hell out of this game. I just can’t quite get it to strike the same chord as EU/EW. Maybe it’s because there are too many new mechanics. I definitely feel adrift. Maybe as time goes on it’ll sorta gel and I’ll get it. I think the biggest thing getting me right now is understanding the different…

Plinkett?

I keep learning things in one game that, hand I known it, would have significantly altered how I played. This isn’t story stuff, this is mechanics stuff. What each building can do, all the different ways to boost power output, what each tech provides and grants access to, what the full roster of class skills are.…
