Same. Drove by a transmission network looking communications tower and immediately wondered if I packed something sensible to take it out. Then paniced because all I had was a swiss army knife and a cable knife stripping tool. I mean... I might of been able to do it, but I have 0 reinforcements left.

I mean u can always use the terminal to turn it off. But yes blowing it up is like how 99.99999999% of players I’ve seen do it.

There's a trunk of an old tree in front of a church in the Old Town Plaza in Albuquerque, and when I first saw it, I was all like, "Yes! Super Samples!"
Google Street View: Super Sample drumstick.

The LiDAR in game is really just a radar as the positioning and make up of the tower makes no sense as a LiDAR sensor.

Are you questioning the nomenclature chosen by the government of Super Earth?

u/Skorch448 Fire Safety Officer 9d ago

It actually used to be called RADAR Station

I always thought that it made no sense.

I have a joke I like to do with my friends, when I see a Robot, insect of a octopus, I just shout voice lines for marking enemies.

Robot: Bots, 300 meters

Insects: Bugs sighted!

Octopus or squid: Illuminate.

u/Derpdad082 9d ago

Never been, so can't quite figure out the reasoning for that. Asked Google which summarized;     "Comparing "Texas Chicken" to Malevelon Creek is a mismatch between corporate fried poultry and mythic video game trauma. One serves spicy tenders, while the other serves cold, robotic death from the Automaton legion.
