They also make ideal launchers for fire works:) especially in areas where the local police get pissy despite them being legal, you can go out to the country side, mount it upside down and fire off some rockets and yank it out and move a few county roads over before the sheriff can arrive.
Two Republican congressmen have introduced legislation that would provide the same employment and economic protections to Americans serving in the Israeli military as US citizens who get deployed to serve in the US military....
These are not US Service Members, they did not take an Oath to the US and they do not serve the US interests. Even disregarding the atrocities currently happening by the IDF (who are clearly not understanding what the D in their title is for) none of these members deserve any recognition or compensation from the US govt.
My friends definitely did. Granted, we had varying taste in music so there was always a little bit of something for everyone. If we only played it single player we might only have bought a quarter or less of everything.
Sims on the other hand, a lot of expansion packs are features from prior games cut up into small chunks and given new animations then sold for ridiculous amounts of money. After sims 3 I promised myself to never buy another sims game knowing damn well it would just be a constant drain on my wallet if I ever wanted to stay current or enjoy anything close to a complete experience. You certainly can enjoy just the vanilla base game, but everyone who ever played this series before knows you most of the expansion packs if you want to play as intended and experience the good stuff.
Id probably pay good money to watch my rookie college student to hit on a viper and fail miserably, panic and then one shot KO her muton boyfriend before running away.
Unless you happen to be Russian or some other power seeking to use military aggression, or the threat there of, against Europe or North America, NATO expansion is a good thing for all parties. The larger the alliance, the more viewpoints, training and speciality each nation can provide and there is less gap for something to get through. Ukraine is a perfect example of why this should have happened a long time ago but political will wasn’t there.
Sweden has a lot to offer NATO and vice versa, its certainly self sufficient for its military needs but with the defense guarantee it can now afford to diversity its military a bit more than its used to with not everyone and everything needing to adhere to a total defense doctrine. There won’t be any Swedish Expeditionary Forces but Sweden does have some rather unique experience and training it can exchange with its western neighbors and possible get some technology exchange and other material assistance to help shore up the northern borders of NATO. The Baltic Sea becoming a NATO lake just a bonus now if Russia tries to start or continue its usual shit.
NATO is strictly a defensive alliance so any power that did start WW3 would be pretty damn stupid to be aggressive against NATO. And better for everyone this way, rather than give Russia a chance to chew up Eastern Europe country by country like they tried against Ukraine, Georgia and Chechnia.
Thats what he said in 2016. Guess who sued four states that represented his margin of victory to stop recounts of 1% difference in votes for Trump v Clinton.
If you were only in high levels of play because of the viability of the items nerfed, you never should have been at that level to begin with. Railgun was zero risk all the rewards and could kill elites at twice the distance a stratagem can be thrown with armor enhancing their throw distance. From the front, through their armor. This is obviously not intended or we’d be able to toss stragems 100m and things like the AMR and AC would also have pierced these armor parts. We can’t, they don’t, and if you can’t play at the same difficulty level you were at prenerf then you are exactly the people the nerf was targetted at. Helldiver is supposed to be the best of the best and being able to kill everything you see is clearly not the intention, players are supposed to pick their battles carefully and conserve ammo for when they need it. Railgun sidestepped both of those being twice as ammo efficient than the recoiless, not even needing a backpack or teamreload to work, and just encouraged lonewolf play that a coop game absolutely should not encourage letting a single player elminate elite enemies on the highest difficulty with two easy to aim shots.
Everyone knew railgun was getting nerfed. How in the world do you justify a weapon more viable than equipment that needs two people to peak perform or calldowns with literal minutes between uses?
People are mad cause they thought they were good at the game playing on the highest difficulties and taking down elite enemies without a scratch, only to be informed no, they weren’t as good as they thought and were just exploiting a severely unbalanced item that sidestepped the intended difficulties of dealinf with those enemies.
Breaker nerd is non-existent, it just has more recoil and slightly less ammo that you’re barely going to notice if you use it as intended. You just can’t spray a group of enemies at 40m and expect headshots on all of them anymore, but closer than about 20m it’s stupidly lethal still.
They just project all their failings on to ‘the other’, Everytime I hear magats going off how Biden is old and unfit I know Trump must have done something really done they feel the need to deflect and project. They are brainwashed into thinking admitting there is a problem is a sign of weakness, and any sign of weakness is an immediate disqualification, rather than a chance to improve.

Why are shilling so hard for a has-been whose most noteable works had to taken away from his creative control to actually develop into something beyond a juvenile revenge fantasy?
Literally every person I know that played it loved it more than the 2018 reboot, which is saying something since the 2018 GoW put the franchise back on the map after its years long downturn.
If thats your take away you’ve clearly never played the games and only read reviews about them second or third hand. No one is saying the og trilogy was bad, but according to Jaffe they were writing epics… Which frankly is a far cry from the truth and they only got better as he had less and less involvement to GoW3 being cslled the best of the trilogy, ironically the game he’s not involved in making.
