Dispatch General Discussion Thread

The kiss in the locker room is, Interestingly enough, something that's influenced by your decisions from all the way back in Episode 4 onwards. Its a point based thing. You play into her bits and jokes, you get a point. Go on a date with her, you get a lot of points. Etc, you get it.

I suppose the idea is that if she feels like there's any kind of spark between you two, she wants to try and make her feelings known before she's gone forever. Which is still bad, even if you're dating her, but I could at least understand the idea in a heightened reality kind of way.

The problem (one of them anyway) is that the point value is way, way too low. You only need 5 points for the scene to happen. You can very easily get that even if you didn't go on the movie date with her.
Its not just thr points from your answers. The devs also confirmed how you dispatch or help out in hacking affects it.

I think because I failed one time helping open the safe, it locked me out of it. I play to rerun my save exactly how I originally did it to see if it was that

That's actually a different counter you're thinking of. That's for her mentor counter, which determines if she becomes a villain. The locker room kiss is it's own unique counter.

I Thought they said the two were connected. I guess I said all the right answers to avoid it then.

Considering how easy it is to get scene as its 5 points, I'm assuming how you answer or interact with Mandy has the opposite effect and lowers it? Thats my assumption

They're 'connected' in that some choices give points to both counters. For example, going out on the movie date gives you +5 to the mentor counter and +5 to the counter for the locker room kiss.

That's another thing, interacting with Mandy has no effect on the locker room kiss. No point loss in any dialogue with her. The real problem is that, as I said before, you only need to hit +5 to get it, and some choices in the scene itself give you +5. Just saying "I care about you" or "I forgive you" individually is enough, as they both give +5.

Thankfully In didn't fully foegive, plus its a bit weird to fully forgive
 
Interestingly, that first one in Episode 6 is the only one you get points from where she's not even in the scene. Is the implication that she was actually there? I mean, it's entirely possible she was, I guess.
 

I'll do part 2 tomorrow with some of the actual tier 8 feats ranging from 8-C to maybe 8-A on a high end

As for what changed with the recalcs, the chase feats gets a upgrade since 40 ft is a lowball for the width of streets in Los Angeles, CA specifically but its not that big a gap. The Flambae one is higher because i simply just used SA shit to get the exact area of the portion destroyed

I was going to calc this myself but it looks like it was done years ago. So I found this calc for surviving the core of the sun, and since P-Man says he'll fly into the sun, it should scale to him.

Plus it doesn't actual make him super super many times stronger than the others just in tier 7. I think it would be a good possibly rating for him and others, until we get further context.

Another thing with Flambaes flames is that he is able to melt Mecha-mans suit, which royd says uses titanium and would switch to a lighter metal. Titanium has a melting point of 1600 something, and based on my general understanding of heat transfer, the obly way for the metal to be that hot is that the flames are as well, as the metal can't be hotter than the flame as then the heat would be transfered from it to the cooler substance (correct me.if I am wrong) So yeah, flambaes flames should be roughly 1600c

Why would anyone else scale to him? And yeah I was planning on scaling Phenomoman to this calc

I can see in the future people will say shroud hurt him, and therefore his mech should scale.

My personal believe is depression and holding back, but I can see people try makw that claim. But we can always explain why it wouldn't

I would scale P-Man:

up to tier 8 while depressed, possible tier 7 when normal

You don't really key something like that and you just note that he wasn't going all out and wasn't at his best due to his depression because really Shroud never really hurts Phenomoman at all, he sends him flying a few times but no real damage was done
 
Honestly, I need to see a serious Phenomaman cause hoe do you let someone put handcuffs on you and you just give up 😭
He let him do it due to the moment with the dog, after they had a window of opportunity he literally grabs him by the neck and flies with him up
 
Like you could have done it literally million better ways instead essentially SAing. I've seen people call her Invisididdy.
Bro, Robert is an adult and Visi is 27, even gives remarks of being a beat up dad or so to him, how is that diddy behaviour...also SA?....the game gives you the option to accept the kiss from her, even when denied, she stops from keeping up

Also that isnt SA to begin with it lol, you have many similar scenes in media and maybe even real life where characters do kisses of that sort suddenly due to complicated feelings going between them, how you even came to the conclusion she assaults at all...

I am not saying that I think its SA myself, but a lot of people in the community have come to that conclusion essentially they break it down to:

She turns invisible after a awkward convo, leaves him to his own thoughts, comes back still invisible and forcefully pushes him against the locker and kiss him without his knowledge, still invisible, turns visible Robert puts his hand to back her off him (before even leaning out), she push his hand to stop him and forces him try stop her agiain (lean out option).

This plus that she's a perve the whole game.

Now for my personal opinion.... I'm a fence sitter, still thinking about it

Yeah, with the points, they probably should have doubled the amount needed for that - With the requirement being 10, you'd still be able to land on the scene without going on the movie date with her (and thus get the funny "its complicated" statistic in the end if wanted) but it would be much easier to avoid if you're not actively romancing her and at the same time don't want to be a jerk to her.
 
even when denied, she stops from keeping up
That is because she is physically pushed off of him otherwise it would still count as SA it wasn't wanted from Robert nor did she ask before hand, she has lots of intrusive moments that Robert does question.


There are nuances there and you can understand the complexities of a characters feelings but for those who didn't pursue a romance with her it is very invasive of her to do feelings or not
 
With Shroud we got this sorta tech based villain with all thr augmentations and mecha suit he had.

When we get a season 2, what would you like to be the next villain type?

I think it would be cool to have either a magic or traditional superhero based villain next

I just hope we get a season 2, and an actually good one, not a quick cash grab. That's my biggest fear for games like this.
 
Also did we talk on Prism having light speed for her attacks at least? Her introduction says she has rays, its said later she burned someone hair, can blind beetcheese foreva, i think they are called beams also

Yeah she'd at have SoL attack speed with pure light, but her light constructs aren't SoL as far as we know.
 
Yeah just the flash of light she does thats real light but the constructs a hard light thing that shouldn't be SoL
 
I think the worst thing they could do for a potential Season 2 would be to pick a canonical ending for Season 1.
there's only so many ways to continue the story. they'll either have to pick up the game from just one of the endings, give us a new cast of characters entirely, or do what cyberpunk did and give you multiple routes on how you start the game, with the routes being the different endings from season 1, each with their own unique stories. either way, someone's gonna be disappointed. I just want them to take their time and make it worthwhile.

That last option would be ideal, but I have no idea how realistic it would be for a smaller studio to pull off.
 
Various routes for various choices is hard to pull, the only game of this genre i know done several routes to go for is detroit become human and that is regarded like one of the most complex and best choice based games

This studio is mainly former telltale peeps and only with walking dead series you can see how they done several seasons from the various choices by players

pretty much impossible as of now. even with all the money they raked in from season 1 it'll take several years to do. they'd have to write 3-6 separate stories and make them all seamlessly transition from their respective season 1 endings. they'd need a huge staff and budget increase, with no deadline. that's something most AAA studios would struggle with.
