How did you last die?

Came across a pouch of lockpicks and opened them up and peered inside. Took one out and Examined one of the picks. Then Activated it without any door nearby to open and a question appeared asking me if I wanted to insert it into my characters nasal passage. I clicked Yes. Another question appeared, are you absolutely certain? Yes!

Congratulations! After adeptly inserting it into your nose you have succesfully unlocked your brain. You died! Thank you for playing and have a horrible day! :flushed:

(played a little to much Quest for Glory thief character…but wouldn’t this be hilarious if it were triggered after attempting to Activate lockpicks 3 times in a row without anything to unlock?)

Testing a martial art in one of my mods (Battoujutsu…rather OP if a character has high dex, but appropriately so for the theme). Surrounded start, urban samurai profession. Cleared out the entire starting town, mostly with a bokken, completed the starting npc mission, then started checking into houses. Went into one, got caught in a beartrap. Tried to get free, eventually managed to get released, right into a landmine.

Are flame-based weapons efficient against them? I’ve almost never ran into them after the fusion rifle was removed, and the few times I did was in a challenge so at that point the only option is to run anyway.

Last time I tried, they weren’t immune to fire. If that wasn’t changed recently, you could lure them into a fire and wait for them to die.

I was thinking about actual flamethrowers. If luring is involved it’s simpler to just lure them somewhere far away so they stumble around sad and lonely.

Yeah I tried that - set a house on fire and let it go in. Problem was that it saw me and came back out again. I found a motorcycle combined with an assault rifle eventually did the trick.

Some NPC’s spawn with a flamethrower. Add to the mix an aggressive mob and you have the recipe for crispy fried player

From experience I think the turrets are always deployed, but vanish if you Use the requisite ID. If you try to enter by any other means they remain deployed to ruin your day.

Unless you enter using C4 or ANFO barrel or w/e it is called. Suffer no turrets to beep.

thought of kitting a hulk through a minefield only to find out that mines do nothing against hulks (seriously?).

Minefields still exist? I haven’t seen one in months.

rarely on roads but usually at the ends of bridges and always around armybases.

Decided to play some “play now”, the first one was a crash heli, and my player started with a broken head (while all other body part were full green). Next try, i got a lost faith but the church i spawned in just so happen to be in a hornet nest

Apparently my character forgot that you can throw grenades over sandbags, not just into them.

Subject C16 had made her way up through all the levels of the lab she woke up in only to find the door to the outside barred by some kind of sinister looking military turret.

After scavenging around the lab for some way to get past the thing, she finally tried to resort to wrecking it with a pistol she found off a zed security guard - after all, it couldn’t seem to see as far in the dark as she could.

She had not accounted for the ‘spray and pray’ routine built into this type of turret, and was instantly cut down by a hail of blind return fire into the darkness.

Subject C17 had been lurking down in the depths of the lab for a few days collecting odds and ends and scavenging for food when they decided to try injecting a few of the various mutagens they’d come across to see if it might help.

Robust Genetics turned out to be insufficient to combat the RNG, which promptly applied five severe negative mutations in a row and left Subject C17 in abject pain and despair, now with no hope or even any remaining wish to escape into the outside world.

I was raiding a military base at night. Disposing of the spotlights and turrets. But I forgot a spotlight. It spotted me and my ESAPI vest didn’t do shit to stop the 50cal from exploding my torso into tiny pieces.
