It's also just funny-sounding in general. Say "Meltard the Wise" out loud, it sounds ridiculous.

A plane I can no longer touch the customize button for because Gaijin now charges 500 GE (over $2 USD) for EACH modern National Flag because a few people were using them to (and I quote) "... instigate national arguments." Ie Russians were massively butthurt over Ukranian flags and constantly TK anyone using them. But it's okay if you paid more than TWICE the price of every other locked (but unlockable!) decal.

Thank god there's only one flag that matters:

Just some morale boosting pre-battle fluffing.

Some Solstheim/Dragonborn DLC stuff from Skyrim:

Piles and piles of gold:

Spoiler :

Raven Rock, with Red Mountain in the background (I'm using a mod that adds in a few things to Solstheim, including a few more market stalls in Raven Rock, in case those who've been there are wondering where those came from:

Spoiler :

Another mod I installed that added another Telvanni settlement in Solstheim; in it is this weird Mushroom giant thing, it kinda creeps me out:

Heh. I was like "oh, that Raven Rock from Fallout 3", then I was like "oh, that's Skyrim."

 

[cybrxkhan]

Heh. I was like "oh, that Raven Rock from Fallout 3", then I was like "oh, that's Skyrim."

Interesting coincidence, that (though Raven Rock was in Morrowind before Fallout 3... not that that matters). Then again, the RL Raven Rock is close enough to Bethesda.

This is the largest city I've been able to get built up in Train Fever so far (Year - 1973):

Above you can see the LRT route with 9 stations picking up people from the train station, taking them straight to one of the main leisure districts, then a shopping district, then some industrial parts of town, then residential, and finally downtown, and then back to the train station, which is very near a dense residential district. The other markers are bus stations (and buses/trams) - for 2 bus routes that tie into the system. This LRT route only stops at major intersections and not even all of them - every city in my game that has a train station has such an LRT line. 90-95% of them are profitable and they seem to do a very good job of shuffling people around the major parts of the city.

This city expanded quite a bit (both in area and density) due to the fact that it's more or less in the middle of the map.. and I have made it into a major transit hub. The train station basically sits at the centre of 3 train lines - one runs east-west, one north-south, and the third one on a bit of a diagonal. So far each line has about 5-8 cities connected to it. If you look closely you'll see that each line is actually a double line - so that trains don't have to wait too long while other trains run in the other direction. One of the lines only has 1 line visible here - due to the "only 5 platforms max per station" thing - so one line has to have 1 platform at this central coming together of all 3 lines. No problem though - it's a double line everywhere else - meaning that there are no noticeable efficiency or bottleneck issues compared to the other lines. It's because trains have to be spaced out anyway - or your profits suffer.

Anyway, here's the full city transit system - 1 LRT and 2 bus lines that connect to it at various places and which serve other parts of the city. This city seems to be building up a bit of a second cluster of high density buildings in the west - so I think I will convert one of the bus lines to an LRT soon enough. There's expansion in the north as well that might need a new bus line or an LRT extension.

Must... resist.. The Fever... .. too many other games to finish.

Seems a game kinda like KSP or Factorio in that it makes me descend into a couple of weeks of constant obsession before I shelf it for a couple of months again due to overexposure. I can feel a new bout of the Train Fever coming on, but I'm resisting it for now.

Skyrim

SPAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACE

Spoiler :

Oh, you mean the dude sneaking away off to the left there in plain god damn sight?

Spoiler :

So this is how it ends afterall, not with a bang but with blinding sunlight.

Spoiler :

For 's sake Bethesda.

Spoiler :

Hitman: Absolution

Heh heh.

Spoiler :

For all of its flaws, they did do a great job of making the game look great, with some pretty detailed sets and decent animations.

Spoiler :

Donations, hell yeah!

Spoiler :

Sucker.

Spoiler :

This guy looks totally stoked for the Danish Surprise.

Spoiler :

They still included lots of pretty cool and hilarious ways to kill people too.

Spoiler :

Uh oh, they're on to your plan Geoff! I must protect the Gnome!

Spoiler :

This never gets old.

Spoiler :

The Samurai stalking his prey in his natural environment, the ventilation system.

Spoiler :

KotOR 2

Ahh the good old Ebon Hawk, now with a nice view out of the garage's new "window".

Spoiler :

I don't even know, some sort of Jedi dancing ritual to open a door I think.

Spoiler :

Shogun 2: Fall of the Samurai with DarthMod.

The gates are, for some reason. wide open. Yet the AI chooses to climb the steepest and tallest section of wall..

Spoiler :

Poor AI, as the attackers they started on a mountain while I go and fortify the sole river crossings around the train bridge

Spoiler :

The smoke effects are great. I don't know much is Darth Mod and how much is vanilla though.

Spoiler :

I really have no ♥♥♥♥ing clue what happened here.

Spoiler :

Smoke covers the battlefield and obscures the enemy lines.

Spoiler :

Not that the smoke would obscure their aim when half their ranged troops are facing the wrong way...

Spoiler :

Two Worlds: Epic Edition

Firewalls are actually quite useful for once.

Spoiler :

How is this even locked?

Spoiler :

Again, firewalls are actually really useful in this game.

Erm, am I supposed to spend this long farming in Herder's Den?

I'm still in there with 1 spore left alive, I dont want to kill it QQ. So much XP forever.

That screenshot looks familiar. Looks like I played something similar.

I started flying the Me163 Komet this week, even at it's hilariously high 8.0 BR against post-war Jets it's kicking serious ass as often as not. I have an album here of a bunch of sweet screenshots I took from a replay of my last match where I butt raped an F9F and a F2H within seconds of each other

Last Friday we did Star Wars names, and decided that we would do Star Trek this Friday. It turned out to be oddly appropriate, complete with a pre-linebattle inspection where we had to quote our character. RIP Spock.

Terrible placement for these docks. Like, what? The last time that hill was under water was millions of years ago.

Their gun batteries shot up their own ships.

If they were Russians it'd all make sense.

It's sooo much fun. The first couple times I played, I got too annoyed with minor details.. and things not working out the way I thought they should. But now that I understand game dynamics well enough, I haven't had this much fun since I discovered KSP.

I'm almost done playing through my first full game - it's the year 1997. I don't think the game actually stops at any particular year - and you can probably play until the year 3000 if you want.. But I have no idea. Now that I make $5-$10 million a year, I have enough money stashed away to build new rail lines that span the entire map, instead of doing it station by station/city by city. So now finally it's possible in this save to undertake huge engineering projects, which is a lot of fun. Last night I connected 5 cities to my grid with a new line that connects to 2 existing lines - at 3 spots. Each city connected to the grid gets an LRT, to help shuffle people around.

Yep, I'm addicted.

I accidentally played Arcade tanks in War Thunder, my teammates were very helpful and friendly /s.

[Daedwartin]

So where is the spearman? Because that is the perfect time for a spearman to come up and beat your tank. Getting stuck on a rock....

 

[Maniacal]

People do ram each other, it's kind of hilarious. I eventually got myself unstuck.
