... and making a photograph instead of a screenshot... :hmmm:

Thought that was some super crazy meta joke going on there.

"Haha, COD is so great, here, have a screenshot of lens flare on my monitor."

How do you get enough scrap to get all those weapons, and crew, and level sub-systems?

DR mostly covered things. I got the teleporter late in sector seven, so I didn't have the chance for much boarding. Despite that, I still managed to clear out the crew from a decent number of ships. Stun locked crew in burning rooms, drained oxygen with a hacking drone, etc. Getting the scrap boosting augment early on helped. I also had three enemies flee, though, so I lost a good 100+ scrap as well.

Scrap wise, DR has it right: I was smart in how I spent it. Those rank eight engines are only there because of a lucky encounter in the final sector that netted me 120 (~70 from the ship and ~50 from the colony). I bought the first step of autopilot shortly before engaging the flagship (I lost two of my six games due to evasion dropping on the final stage) and the second step with the spare scrap from beating the first stage. Actual shop purchases were fairly limited: <10 fuel, two drones, charge laser (Not used; bought it early on when I didn't have anything else that'd get me through the late game), the second ion stunner, scrap recovery arm, and the hacking stun module. Oh, and I had to repair a pretty substantial amount as well; missiles are really fucking irritating when you have neither cloaking nor a defense drone and it seemed like every ship I encountered had missile weapons.

Really, though, the ship isn't nearly as decked out as pretty much any other ship on a different difficulty. Only rank five weapons, no teleporter upgrades, no artillery beam upgrades, no drone subsystem at all, no door upgrades.

Edit: Just checked the stat screenshot and my actual total scrap count was 1707.

Are you playing on console?
Because iirc MW3 is steamworks (every CoD since MW2) and Steam got possibility to screencapturing but it denied you from using ur shitty photoshining device.

Come on, EA, go propose to Sqeenix to make a sequel about Ukraine.
Think STALKER + Freedom Fighters. That means massive sales. What could possibly go wrong?

I've heard criticisms before about the game having a dark level. Is this awful shit what they were talking about?
Nah, that's the Tomb of the Giants, this is The Abyss. It's not a dark level, it's just a void of pure blackness where you fight the Four Kings. Only real negative I can come up with about it is that the whole level totally fucks with your depth perception when you try to dodge the ranged attacks the bosses throw at you.

Are there things you can fall off of to your death?

Okay, that's slightly less awful.

I really like this game. It never got anything more than middling reviews, but it's imo it's a much better game than it's given credit for and has a slick style all its own.

The protagonist never stops dancing and dodging in-rhythm to the
neverending hot beats and crazy pyrotechnics.

When you dig into it a little, the game becomes a test of earning higher stage ranks by chain-killing every enemy in the room untouched for bonus points. The audiovisuals blend together perfectly, as the main character snaps her fingers and dances to the beat while perfoming laser ballet through enemy gunfire. The better you play, the more graceful she seems to be.

Points are used for purchasing new suits and upgrading them. PN03 is an RPG because you play the 'role' of a dirty dancer.

Suck it ARM. TA Escalation is fun in small doses but the games tend to follow the same pattern against the AI.

Man, the artillery in SupCom felt so unsatisfying after playing through TA just prior. Really miss being able to turtle and just shell the every living hell outta the enemy's base.

The new beta patch finally fixed the pathfinding cycles as well so land units don't get stuck in rows anymore. I porc too much so in escalation mod you start to get your base hammered by long range arty eventually. There's just something very satisfying in setting up the perfect meat grinder and watching the enemy units being annihilated.

He forgot to mention about attacks that make her ass spining around. No twerking though...
Not much people remember title but ass spining attack - much more.
