I love recreating this car in different Need For Speed games. I always imagine it to be called "White Thunder", AKA an undercover cop I'd love to add in an expansion mod someday that adds sting events to races where one (or more) racers turn out to be undercover cops, and you have to either run from them or finish the event as they'd join into the pursuit as boss units. The entire mechanic would be introduced with White Thunder, which looks somewhat suspiciously like a Federal Cruiser turned into a street racer with a few custom tweaks. Of course, later on they'd end up turning on the player and other racers in a fated event as from then on they'd sometimes appear in pursuits in the same way Cross normally does (and could randomly appear alongside). In the mod, I'd disable rubberbanding, and White Thunder would be a ridiculously fast unit, faster than a standard Federal Cruiser due to the street racing performance mods it has. I keep recreating this car time and time again, and I pretty much do it whenever there's a Corvette C6 in a Need For Speed game.

...Nobody else saw that, right...?

I swear to god, I see the weirdest damn things in games. I can't make this up, I've been playing the game for ALL of 10 minutes...

Fuuuck. I was close to doing 100 taxi fares in a row. No resprays allowed (not for me, anyway - it's a weird personal challenge). In a normal Taxi, too, not a Cabbie, which is slightly more sturdy. I was doing so incredibly good. Still got 81 fares, though, which is not freaking bad, and I was hauling ass the entire time trying to get as many of the speed bonuses as I possibly could. To be fair, I'm actually amazed I made it to 50, let alone 81.

I outdid my own max fares in one go from last time while getting the remaining fares I needed for game completion. Last time I got 81 - this time I got 120! Fucking 120. I'm not going to lie, I NEVER thought I'd make that. Not without resprays - and that's exactly the thing. 120 fares, one go, NO RESPRAYS (no resprays being a weird personal challenge I do for some reason even I don't understand why). In a standard Taxi and not a Cabbie (which has more health). Funny enough, I only needed 19 after last time to finish the 100 needed for game completion, and then I casually just did 120 in one fucking go while just seeing how many I could get. I'm very good with leaving it at that for a good while in the game, and that's going to be a bitch to beat if I ever decide to try and best it. It's possible...but man, it's going to be FRUSTRATING, and is going to take forever. Yeah, I'll pass on that for now. I've got six thousand other things to do in this game. 201 fares total, counting last time, when all I needed was 100...

How have I never noticed this building with a garage door you can walk right through in Atlantic Quays in GTA III?

Pokérus just happened in SoulSilver. And so now there is a "patient zero" Pokémon who shall forever sit in the PC to infect others in the future as a seed Pokémon. Not actually the first who got it (they would technically be more like patient six, I had five others who were in a party when it occurred), rather they're just a wild Pokémon I caught and then spread it to, and now they are the designated carrier of the extremely fucking rare trait. What else do I do with a Hoppip?

Darktide. Been spending way too much time with Darktide, essentially what happens when Left 4 Dead meets Warhammer 40k.

Have one of each class at rank 30, and am trying to get all the weapon masteries... along with some of the dumber penances (achievements, essentially) before I move up to Damnation difficulty, Maelstrom, Auric Missions, and Havoc mode. The Zealot's "take out 200 ranged enemies with backstabs outside of Coherency" has me wanting to put the game down for several days though...

"Behind Enemy Lines", easily one of the worst of the ability-based penances.
 
Guys...I think I broke my Stalker Specter. His Dread has become lodged in his throat, and he's just standing there. Doesn't attack enemies, doesn't follow me. He's just stuck like this. Somebody call an ambulance! I think he's choking!

Wait a minute, guys, I know the perfect cure - I'll dance in his face while he chokes! Unce, unce, unce, yeah!

Specter: I'm sick of your shit, Tenno...

Coincidentally, my first ever shiny encounter was a green zubat XD
I had freaking two of them back in LeafGreen years ago, before the game just stopped working altogether not long after, frustratingly. Now I have another one - in SoulSilver! The shiny Zubats have returned! One, anyway. I'll fucking TAKE it, though. I was literally just casually leveling up a Magnemite, barely paying attention as I was watching YouTube on my phone, looked over, and just about jumped out of my skin when I saw a green fucking Zubat.

Warframe just dropped their new content and...

Finally! Something actually different with the Adversaries.

There's still an awful lot of front-loading to getting a bunch of the Antivirus mods you need, but you're not going through them nearly as fast as the Requiem mods. Instead it's far-easier-to-find Potency mods that are getting drained out, and they make the process go by MUCH faster.

I don't want to say too much more than that until Katara gets a chance to take on the boy bands.

Ah, I actually forgot there was a new update coming. By all means, continue - spoil the new content. Not enough people play the game, so if anything, hype some potential newcomers up.

And now that I've had time to complete a full sequence, I shall.

So the order goes as follows: Go into the 1999 missions. Find a mixtape, carry it to a console and try a hack. Pass or fail, the Coda is on to you.

One of the five band members headlines.

Go into a special Antivirus mission to try and pick up Antivirus mods.

Then go into the 1999 missions with those mods equipped. Every once in a while, you'll encounter two of the band members that aren't the headliner. Drain their health and take a stab. If you don't have the right Antivirus mod, then switch mods and try again next mission. If you do?

That's where the Potency mods come into play. Equip the right Antivirus mod and two Potency mods, keep doing missions and stabbing (and replacing Potency mods as needed) until you fill the meter (you'll know it's full when the Antivirus mod loses a charge - they have 3 charges like the Requiems).

That's where you go into your Railjack and CRASH A CONCERT!

You first have to destroy speakers. When you approach one, your ship gets Techrot boarders. Afterwards you can blast it with the Railjack. Once the speakers are gone, you go into the stadium and face the Coda.

Which is Techrot rushing the stage while the stage itself attacks! Strobe lights, pyrotechnics, sound pulse waves... you have to dodge these or you'll get a double damage debuff. Once you've taken out enough Techrot, the Coda themselves attack. Two sequences of this, and you can choose whether to convert or vanquish your Coda.

It is very hard to describe this fight, especially while "Party of your Lifetime" is blaring full-blast during it.

You get cosmetics and emotes from these guys, as well as Live Heartcells. THOSE are how you get the Coda weapons, much like how a subset of the Tenet weapons worked.


Phew! There's how those work. And I can say with confidence this is faster than the Kuva Lich or Sister of Parvos cycles.
