Another FX I'd like to see.

Hm. I don't entirely know what to make of these images I've received. It seems like the one near the box may have gotten his attention and he simply found the one by the bench. As far as I can tell the one near the box went off, though. Wi...

Tonight, after some thinking and consideration, I returned to a Cypherite hovercraft which I had downed not too long ago and pulled a Veil. Do you remember when she slaughtered Davot's crew and sent it, EMP charged and on autopilot straigh...

Halloween Masks, 2008 ** Potential Mask Spoilers **

I got Seraph, Shimada, and Cryptos from zombies. They seem to be the common ones this year. No luck with Veil, Oracle, the Merv, or the unknown seventh just yet. Snagged a Trainman from a pumpkin earlier, though.

[11.2.5] Mach mission feedback thread: "Antigenic Sin"

It is activatable. But according to the mission it's consumable, and I've only got one, so I'm not using it for no reason. And yeah, hopefully this or something similarly nice will find its way into Zion/Merv hands.

[11.2.5] Zion mission feedback thread: "101"

Honestly? Weak. Just like every Zion mission since the end of chapter 8. There was a sense of "you're going to find something out!" only to get a "knock knock." and nothing more.

Yeah, hopefully the sky won't be so dark as it has been in th past (though I'm not really crossing my fingers). In the past, it's been very hard to play with that pitch black skybox.

Missions are screwed up

It's better not to do escort missions at that level. The gang members will just eat 'em up.

The quests and org rewards sound promising. The change to events does not sound promising at all, and, to be brutally honest, neither do low-rent cinematics. I can understand the frustration with events getting dull, but I think there's a...
