  • Oh, also my 2¢ about the Jars is that it’s very slow to bring up and aim, the crossbow I found more numbleneith the same effectiveness/fun factor.

    Very satisfying to hit one bot to have it explode and take out a group, 2 shots down the exhaust in a factory and it’s done as well.

    Run it with scout armor and you can sneak into the position you need to do the most damage.


  • So I was a GM for a FS company’s account for an Investment Firm in Seattle for awhile, and for some reason they wanted me to pay the coffee account through my company credit card. Okie, dokie.

    There were 3 floors of Starbucks coffee machines that ground and brewed each individual cup, and the hoppers on top held 2-3lbs (I forget). So that was min. 4 machines per floor, plus the C suite and catering, all the coffee we bought was from the same vendor. Now the kicker was, NONE of the storage cabinets in the break rooms had locks, so the employees were walking off with a veritable shit ton of free, premium coffee beans.

    My CC had originally the standard 5k credit limit…and with everything else I needed to purchase that wasn’t going to be enough for the month, so I got the regional comptroller to get the limit increased…and then again…and then again.

    We spent about 12-15k per month on just coffee (at our cost) which would translate to about 50k in sales to the company.

    [Bonus bit: My CC limit ended up at a 35k limit which I kept after I left that account… nobody believed me that it was so high. I was a superstar doing openings when we needed to get new kitchen equipment that day and we rolled out to the local restaurant supply store and bought it on the card…at the end of my time with that company I was at a bitch of an account and stopped doing my monthly reconciliation report, to the tune of 6-7 months and over 250k of charges that they were screaming at me to get the receipts turned in…and to be honest I was out of fucks to give, and they made us use a new system that was absolutely a huge piece of time sucking shit].


  • Scortcher is fantastic with one caveat: you will be ammo starved the entire time. Weirdly enough I love using the crossbow and don’t feel the same (just surprised when the magazine is empty)…

    I love any main that takes out bot chickens (scouts)., and this fits the bill nicely. I haven’t used the plasma pistol yet because the SMG and shotgun (Halt) were…ehhhhhhhh… Not good for me, so I’m a bit shy about replacing the senator.







  • Most of the time if that happens the “I’m Sorry” and pointing out their dropped gear is sufficient.

    I dropped in to one, though, before I even hit the ground one dude accused me of being a traitor (grief player), and killed me straight off. And then a second time. I pointed this out and after again the 3rd time made sure the other 2 knew what I was doing and killed him, and then again when he respawned.

    We actually finished the mission the other two sussed what was up since I didn’t kill them, and kept this guy off the field untill we got back to the ship, then he got kicked.

    If you’re doing it on purpose, you’re going to have a bad time.
