I feel like I'm getting Spec Ops the Line meta-message vibes from all the bot messages and some of the absolute brainlet takes I've seen about the war on Reddit and Youtube. The difference is with Spec Ops the Line, you can easily critique US interventionism, because random people in Dubai don't show up in the US to turn our civilians into bio-smoothies. That game was just annoying, because the meta berating for liking a war game is fucking obnoxious from a company literally profiting off of it.

"If you were a better person, you wouldn't be here."
"To kill for yourself is murder. To kill for your government is heroic. To kill for entertainment is harmless."
"Cognitive dissonance is an uncomfortable feeling caused by holding two conflicting ideas simultaneously."

However, to the Automatons, I will simply say what one of their robotic betters said, "Every sentient life has the right to make its own decisions. [They] chose a path that prohibits coexistence."
If the bots didn't want me to kill them, they shouldn't be on planets that I want to liberate.

I like fighting bugs just as much as bots

Squids? Never heard of 'em, dunno what you are talking bout.
 
God damn I have just had the most brutal mission yet on a level 7 on Merek.

It was a Blitz: Destroy Bio-Process. Fine, can do. I can deal with all the bots while making it happen. But wait! There was 2 Stratgem Scramblers on the map that that covered all three of the Bio-Process. Absolute insanity trying to juggle get the scrambles off, dodging bot drops and doing it all within 12 mins.
 
Tank only works if you have people talking or are doing it with friends.
One time I had some rando call down a tank on Super Helldive and just point to it, and get in the gunner. I got in the driver seat, drove to objectives. The guy would just stare at them. Point the tank at enemies, he wouldn't fire, and when the tank predictably blew up from him not shooting hulks, he quit.
Then I threw down an SOS beacon and three dudes came down who weren't deaf-mutes and we cleared it no problem.

Retards who play this game don't know that the tank gunner can reload. Reddit example

This is so fucking retarded why does this make me so irrationally angry? No other fucking Vehicle displays its ammo as "1/30" either nigger, are you afraid of pressing fucking buttons, do you not know how fucking videogames work, do your eyes just not fucking function? I remember when the tank first dropped I saw a Xitter reply of some mouth breathing retard responding "it's useless you can only fire it once, dogshit update like ususal!" and it just makes me upset that I have to share a hobby with these people.

I played the game with a friend and one of his friends (who is a massive redditor) and he didn't know that reloading a mag would void the rest of the ammo in it lol. So this guy (level 50 btw) was running around shooting about 1/3 of his mag and then reloading, and he would then beg for a resupply, all so tiresome.
 
When are they going to fix the connection issues? I've had games where all my squadmates just poof out of existence. And yes, I checked my internet. No, its not unstable.
 
It kind of blows my mind that such a libtard European company just CARES so much about this game and adds so many details.

Some one on reddit pointed out that in all the Splash Art for each update it was the same One True Flag the whole time that has progressing gotten more and more beaten up.

The flag is now sewn together to make sure it make it to Cyberstain.

Cyberstan is hell holy shit. Smaller city maps full of the same annoying bot objectives, so you get to enjoy being jammed and spammed with flyers. Also the vox tank thing spawns a ton and is super tanky and killy. Cyborgs aren't too scary but spawn in big groups.

Pretty wild, dunno if they'll lower rates or what but eliminate missions are just spamming strats and repeatedly dying to vox and war strider spam

I just did one mission over lunch. Is there any secret shortcut to killing these or do I really have to shoot out all the glowing grates? That's doable when there's only one, but not when there's 3+ all firing on me.
I was mowing down the cyborgs with the JAR, but I'm going to have to swap off the Peak Physique armor for Explosive Resistance, so I'll have to find something else. Also I couldn't use Eagles anywhere on the map and never had enough time to figure out why.
