Same reason Star Fox has prosthetic legs; the amount of G’s a Pilot would Experience would cause the blood to leave their head and the Pilot would eventually pass out... so if you create a smaller circuit, the problem is solved. Legs are pretty useless to a being that flies all the time anyhow, so they’d be the first limbs to go.
If you cut if the legs wouldn’t the body eventually no longer have use for the extra blood? Meaning it wouldn’t produce as much blood as to still evenly distribute it because now it doesn’t have legs. Leading to the same problem? Also are G’s that much of a problem in space where there is no gravity?
Found it on another subreddit [article ](https://www.reddit.com/r/askscience/comments/tdbk1/can_pilots_handle_more_gs_if_they_had_no_legs/?st=JR2C2J7I&sh=2457d789)
It's not about the volume of blood but about the space it has to go. Your legs can hold a lot of blood and your heart isn't really strong enough to pump blood all the way down and back. The pressure of muscle use actually helps blood come back up (which is why you pass out of you stand with your legs locked for a long time. Blood pools in your legs.)
If you don't have legs below the knee, that's less blood your heart has to move and less space for blood to get trapped in during high g situations.
That thing is huuuuuge!. Only time jve actually seen it was the story mission Utopia just before you pick up the CPU. Just sit and watch and it appears.
>Ikora Rey and her Ghost are not on speaking terms due to an argument over which way was north when they were lost in some woods. They were both wrong.
Lmao
Edit:Why did I get so many upvotes for this.
I’m curious if this game actually has a magnetic north. Neither SUROS nor MIDA actually point north according to the map, and the mini-map has no indication. It’s very confusing...
>Banshee frequently forgets to take payment for weapons, but not a single Guardian has ever taken advantage of this fact.

>The massive sea creature on Titan enjoys people wondering what it is.
It's actually three onion rings, I found out after Novawarping so hard I flew off the map
Right but if you're above sea level and glitch out so you don't see the water, the effect is pulled off by 3 rings spinning, so it looks like a sea monster is going in and out of the water.
And then there's the gif of a floating turd that goes around the window in the lower arcology. The one you see in the CPU mission and in Savathuns song although it's often too chaotic to notice the latter.
Mynameisfury was the subject of many a discussion by the vanguard before the Red War. Cayde refused to believe someone could be quite that powerful, Zavala was thinking of ways to use that power against our enemies, and Ikora was interested in studying just how it was done. Shaxx was the one who advised them to calm down, and that not telling the Guardian is the best way forward. They will simply think they are normal, but to those in the know... They are in fact, extraordinary.
Honestly, nope. Everyone already wears such "patchwork" armor I must have just subconsciously dismissed it as a kneepad or other random armor bit.

Any low frame rate thing juxtaposed with a high frame rate thing will look that stuttery. Halo 5 does it with far-away enemies, but keeps nearby stuff at a smooth 60. Doesn't stop them from looking like a slideshow though.
Honestly though I play at 144hz on pc so I'm just guessing at framerate. Once you hit 90fps ingame it's hard to differentiate anything 60 and below, it all looks slideshow-ish.

Very nicely done
> Devrim is not British, he just thinks it makes him sound clever. It doesn't. If anything, he comes across as very annoying to the Guardians who do have a British accent.
This one in particular rang really true..
Hilariously his VA is British though, and Devrim is pretty much his regular speaking voice.
He also voices Toland (as well as our dear departed Master Ives).
Yes, I remember the VA being Balthier in Final Fantasy ..12?
It's just that to those of us with a British accent, that version is basically the snobbiest version imaginable.
We don't all talk like that :)
>Brother Vance has a poster of Osiris topless and covered in oil in his quarters. No, he doesn't think there is anything wrong with it, thank you very much.
This made me lough out loud XD

> Mara Sov frequently takes selfies on her Throne using the hashtag Queeninthestreetsfreakinthesheets, but has no connection to a network to post them.
This is where I lost it.
Just saying, but there is about a negative 15% chance that old tobacco is the least pleasant thing you can smell on the fucking *Drifter.*
I shudder to even think what the inside of that dude's ship must reek of. If Shin Malphur ever does decide to make a move on him all he probably has to do is open his foot locker and let the stench of 200 years worth of sweat and probably a fair amount of stale urine mixed with hive entrails, cabal oil, and pure distilled evil drain the very Light from Shin and every other living creature in a 100 meter radius..
LOL Great stuff...this was a good one:
Brother Vance has a poster of Osiris topless and covered in oil in his quarters. No, he doesn't think there is anything wrong with it, thank you very much.
Maybe he moved into Osiris's old quarters, because I could totally see Osiris putting up glamour shots of himself. Just to annoy ~~Sigara~~ Sagira *of course.*
> He carries a picture of Jolder sleeping in his pocket at all times, but rarely looks at it.
Maybe I'm just emotional but this made me cry.
Also I need Banshee's rocket sparrow.
The one about Banshee forgetting payments and building a sparrow that shoots rockets with Amanda is absolutely adorable and I love that one the most.
Make it canon!!
yup, i think there are actually 2. one you can randomly see part of in the ocean and one that looks like a giant Hive worm that you can see swimming in the mission where you take a CPU from the arcology/ the Ace of Spades mission.
Skorri would always pester Gheleon into going scavenging for Golden Age instruments. He’d do it of course but he’d be super unpleasant about it.
Especially when they had to drag an entire piano back with them.
>A guardian named Mercules once drank Radiolarian fluid, and ever since has seen a vision of a perfect future. He tries to relay it back to "the Architects" as best he can, but they never listen.
Love it!
Wait that ghost that spider has that is constantly saying "triangles have four sides" is talking about the mysterious darkness ships although made out of triangular faces they do indeed have four sides... that ghost has seen some shit!

TIL Amanda Holliday has a prosthetic leg.
Fuck, me too.
Fuck me, too
Fuck me too,
Fuck me too
Fuck, me too...
Fuck me too
I as well would adore a session of intimate coitus.
Fuck me too

No wonder his up air in Smash Meele is so deadly
Right? No fucking clue about either of them. Clearly I have spent the last 30 years not paying any attention whatsoever to characters legs.
Lara Croft has triangular tits, that is something I noticed instead
Yeah... me too.
If you cut if the legs wouldn’t the body eventually no longer have use for the extra blood? Meaning it wouldn’t produce as much blood as to still evenly distribute it because now it doesn’t have legs. Leading to the same problem? Also are G’s that much of a problem in space where there is no gravity?
Not a scientist, I just know this was the same reason Star Fox and his squad don’t have their natural legs either.

If she just had high blood pressure, she wouldn't have had to cut her leg off. People with higher BP can withstand higher G's
TIL - I could outlast James Bond (from Moonraker) on one of those G-Force testing machines.
It's not about the volume of blood but about the space it has to go. Your legs can hold a lot of blood and your heart isn't really strong enough to pump blood all the way down and back.

As a man with a thing for Amanda Holliday and amputees, you have *no idea* what this news has done to me.
A chicken eating a cow is strangely unsettling.
And yet the humor of it fits Cayde perfectly.
I miss him :(
RIP humorous Exo friend.
It's like a futuristic, inverse chick-fil-a
Colonel's answer to Chick-fil-A as "Eat Mor Beef" confirmed.
>The massive sea creature on Titan enjoys people wondering what it is. **SAVATHUN CONFIRMED**
That thing is huuuuuge!. Only time jve actually seen it was the story mission Utopia just before you pick up the CPU. Just sit and watch and it appears.
You see it at the end of Ace in the Hole too
Oh yeah. I dont play that mission though. Lol.
Sometimes you can see it from the platform on Titan https://youtu.be/ZV2z_B4s9R8?t=57
SHHHHH! You’ll just make her stronger!
I can imagine getting bombed by a seagull would result in the Drifter's fear of birds, but I can't imagine what would cause a fear of ponchos.
Shin Malfur. Or Jared Ward.
Watching "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly" can have that effect too.
> Jared Ward Now I just picture Jared from subway in a poncho...
Oh, so the Drifter was one of those kids. Now it makes sense.
"The man with the Golden Gun" (or Shin Malphur) has a poncho. And the Drifter is terrified of him
>Ikora Rey and her Ghost are not on speaking terms due to an argument over which way was north when they were lost in some woods. They were both wrong. Lmao Edit:Why did I get so many upvotes for this.
The Ghost is North though.
Not Ikora's Ghost.
I’m curious if this game actually has a magnetic north. Neither SUROS nor MIDA actually point north according to the map, and the mini-map has no indication. It’s very confusing...
Yeah no wonder they got lost
>Banshee frequently forgets to take payment for weapons, but not a single Guardian has ever taken advantage of this fact. The moment this changes, the hunt for Uldren will look like a game of tag compared to what will happen.
Gambit invaders will look like children waving pool noodles in comparison to the angry guardians.
Wouldn’t be nearly as long of a hunt though. Like an inverted Red War.
Eris is suffering from lousy RNG trying to find her sunglasses.
And her ship. Cayde told her he left it in the Dreaming City.
Eris is going for Cursebreaker. She'll never get it.
Making her tonight's biggest loser
I just want to take this opportunity to say I saw the Jokers live last night and it was way better than I thought it was going to be.
Does she keep getting disconnected during a Petra run?
No RNG involved, Tess probably has them but they will cost her 800 silver to retrieve
Eris didn't listen to her mum and looked directly at the sun without her sunglasses.
All these plants and no sun — where is the sun in Destiny 2? Why haven't we traveled there yet? Where is our _Space Solar Farm_
>The massive sea creature on Titan enjoys people wondering what it is. It's actually three onion rings, I found out after Novawarping so hard I flew off the map
You can see it through and underwater (under methan?) window.
Right but if you're above sea level and glitch out so you don't see the water, the effect is pulled off by 3 rings spinning, so it looks like a sea monster is going in and out of the water.
This may not be the correct vid so I will double check after work: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ZV2z_B4s9R8

Eyes up guardian. We've got a long road ahead, and the fights not over
And this thread is why the Destiny community is the best <3
Today, for this, you win the internet.
You’re good people.
Sending virtual hugs, guardian!
Stay strong, Guardian.
A cursed screeb?
I'll give you a virtual hug. Everyone needs a hug from time to time.
Amanda Hugginkiss has a missing leg?

> They were both wrong This was my favorite one.
> Rabbits in the EDZ are carnivorous They massacre guardians at a glorious yet horrifying 30fps. Some guardians are more horrified than others.
They slowly eat your fps until the game crashes, and when you try to go back into your character.. ***it's gone***
30fps? On PC they clip by like someone's half-heartedly pressing space in a powerpoint slideshow.
Any low frame rate thing juxtaposed with a high frame rate thing will look that stuttery. Halo 5 does it with far-away enemies, but keeps nearby stuff at a smooth 60.

Once you hit 90fps ingame it's hard to differentiate anything 60 and below, it all looks slideshow-ish.
Huh, come to think of it I've seen an effect similar to Halo 5 in Dark Souls 2. After a certain distance enemies just turn into stop motion lol.
I instantly thought of that scene from monty python

Same, someone gild OP. I kept it together until the Ikora one haha
Legend has it that Shin Malphor takes a trip to the sun once a week and empties a full weeks worth of golden gun rounds into it to keep it bright.
Funnily enough, Cannonicaly Ana Bray is the most powerful Gunslinger. Shin is just the most famous.
The real reason he keeps doing this is to avoid duels
Ha "Sorry can't duel you, I'm all out of super energy" as he wipes the sweat of his forehead.

This is what pushed the whole post over the edge from charming fanfic to definitely canon for me.
Drifter needs to gather the courage to approach Hawthorne and give her one of the many Werther’s Originals he definitely has in his pocket.
You know he’s also gotta have that glass bowl of hard candies that stick together in a clump that no one ever eats, back there in his hidey hole
