starbase 1 - if you have enough defense and passive healing to counter multiple torpedo volleys, you literally CAN just launch pets and tab out, because even if some enemy ships spawn out of any pet's leash range...they'll eventually despawn anyway and the queue will move to the next stage, or complete if it's the last
i know the mission, and unless they've changed something since the last time i played it (which was years ago, admittedly), you do NOT torture that captain to death...you torture him to a state of near-death, then beam aboard your ship and blow his up, but he does not die before that point
(i have no idea what that means - also, no one sets computer programs to that long of a name; highest i've ever seen is 3-6 characters of mixed numbers and letters)
people enslave sentient beings all the time and no one has issues with it - it's called owning pets seriously, start using the proper term for life capable of reasoning and logic - sapience
(so what dryad decided to possess briana right in the middle of a fight? and stop getting your panties in a twist - i have a reason for all this which will HOPEFULLY come into play by the end of the fight) *back on the bridge, the crew finds themselves slowly returning to normal after tala cuts off the comm system, at…
*oculus' mental assault...does absolutely nothing because machines can't feel emotions and can't be driven to madness, so the reaper is free to continue attacking krystal while using telekinetic gales to buffet briana*
yes, they are 'similar' in the same way the tzen'tar dreadnought is similar to the cardassian hutet - they aren't the same model even if they have the same general silhouette
(well, we're going to have to wait on west now, since i figure oculus is going to try and be the first into matt's head to free him...you'd think briana would be trying to help her girlfriend)
(well, no - krystal's going to have to be helped by everyone else once they've been liberated, because i think at this point she's probably curled up in a ball inside her own head)
(i should also point out that in order to keep that assault up, he has to create a link between his mind and everyone else's and keep it open - which can be exploited, if you know what i mean - just gotta find the portal in your mind's eye of course, you have to successfully fight off your own demons first, and someone's…
*the reaper lets out a high-pitched screech with a machine-like quality to it and flings krystal away from it again before leaping at her and attacking with fang and claw* (picture a nazgul screech, but with a robotic quality to it - that's what i figure a reaper screech would sound like)
*the reaper retaliates against the continued resistance...by using his thrall's mental abilities to force its way into everyone's minds and begins dredging up all their worst memories and greatest failures, krystal seeing flashing images of the borg at vega assimilating her comrades, images of kuntel turning away from her…
*the lycan's fist comes up and strikes krystal in the side of the muzzle - hard, a pulse of concentrated air then erupting from his body in an omnidirectional wave, sending krystal and anyone else nearby flying away as he struggles to his feet before grasping his head and roaring in agony, his eyes fading back to yellow as…
(yes, we finished ME2 years ago, and the reapers are already in both galaxies, and now they've just invaded andromeda's earth) *the reaper goes flying into the ground and barely manages to raise a shield against the lightning before he's set upon by a wild furball of pure fury once again, trying to gather enough…
(define 'assault') *briana finds herself being lifted in the air, then slammed down on what should be blasted concrete and asphalt, but feels more like carpeted metal - confirming her theory they never actually left the exeter - followed by a pressure against her back that slowly grows in intensity, her spine starting to…
yeah, you know, i could understand removing a BROKEN map from randoms, like they did with cure ground when it was still uncompletable several months ago ( did they ever re-add that map to RTFO after fixing it, btw?), but there isn't anything wrong with infected that can prevent its completion beyond human stupidity - and…
(tala IS going to want to know about that transmission, i hope?) *krystal finds herself hanging in mid-air, along with everyone else as the metal plating and tendrils start to glow white-hot before melting into pools of slag* you still continue to struggle against the inevitable, but you cannot stop us, you don't have the…
*meanwhile, on the bridge of the exeter, whoever is manning the internal sensors for the ship gets screeched at by the ship's computer that an intense amount of electromagnetic radiation and a whole lot of other different types of energy emissions have suddenly appeared in the corridor where the holodecks are located,…
