Guys, I think this is a very productive thread. Keep your thoughts coming!  |
Theres a point there. In a way i can see how renown (as annoying as it is) acutally comes into play. real life scenario, say your in the military, stationed oversea's. You go to supply to draw something out. Supply says their out of it.
Reality check here is when it comes to the good stuff in supply, more often then not, theres not enough of it. So often, you ahve to make do without. Thats a fact. Improvise is word that most military are well aware of.
But heres the thing, just because the supply sgt says their out of it, doesnt mean they really are. If its a hot item, and he's only got 1 or 2 left of it, he's not likely to hand it to the first schmoe who comes walking through his door. More likely then not, he'll save it for one of his buddy's as a favor. thats how the military works more ofthen then not. You scratch my back, ill scratch yours. For example, this comm unit neede to run some cables. But they didnt have a backhoe to dig the hole. My unit did. We dug their hole, and in return we got 4 hours in an F4 simulator. Thats renown at work. Not that i agree with renown in SH3 as a game mechanic.
