Looks like I won't get my RAM till at least 6/2.
Had some fun anyways grinding through segments of this Uber run through building my perks and health upgrades. One of my fave weapons is that auto shotgun in shrapnel mode. That thing is wicked powerful. They were smart enough though to make sure not to have any one size fits all weapons. Some suck against armored troops, and you have to be careful not to drain your LKW in the wrong place.
They also have better AI than I first thought. They not only take cover and flank pretty well, they will spawn in places that keep you on your toes. I really like the background music, which is rare for me, but halfway through my Uber run I muted it to hear enemies better. Some of my fave battles are the train station and the ambush after the shuttle crash, the latter fairly challenging.
Stabbing Commanders while asleep in their bunks is hilarious, but I found they are woken when tossing a grenade at them, which I did to try and get the perk that requires you to kill one with grenade.
I then backtracked to the previous area where I'd snuck past several troops in hopes to find a Commander I could stun from behind with a tossed grenade, hoping to get my kill that way, but the area after I snuck through it was now void of all AI.
Oddly enough, when I went back to sneak through the Commanders bunk room on my way to the next area, the LKW woke him up just cutting through the panel in his room, which had never happened before.
As it turned out, it gave me the perfect op for the grenade kill because he stood there looking out the door of his room with his back to me, and I was able to stun and kill him with the grenade even though he was alerted.
This game is full of unexpected and often hilarious moments.
