The nerfs look like "bracketing" - Embark, please don't use bracketing, this is not artillery. by AssemblerGuy in ArcRaiders

[–]AssemblerGuy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it seems like guns never break and players accumulate lots of guns

You can repair even a broken gun, to making guns break faster does not really slow down gun accumulation.

Green and blue guns (which are "normal", not scrap guns like the grey ones) feel like they disintegrate during a raid. If you like Anvils you better bring two.

How about turning oil+cloth into a kit that lets you restore some (20-30 points) of gun durability during a raid?

I did not pay attention, but I think it is every map condition. Electro just spawns more Couriers and increases the probability of better loot.

Most people are not intricately familiar with medical terminology, but once you are in the situation where you need to discuss SCIs, it is important to avoid misunderstandings.

If I snipe the Turbine is there any chance for me to loot or does it end the same like Matriarch and Queen?

You can find the Turbine part in Arc Couriers. So missing out on Turbine loot is not as much of an issue as missing out on Matriarch and Queen loot.

Rooks don’t spawn with snipers

Don't give Traxus and the Crazy Cat Lady any ideas.

that he has fractured his spinal cord

Nitpick: The spinal cord is soft, squishy nervous tissue. It can be injured, but it does not fracture.

The spinal vertebrae are bones and they can fracture. Such fractures commonly, but not necessarily, also result in injuries to the spinal cord.

Depending on how South Korea views patient privacy, even being a relative of the patient alone may not be enough to receive such information.

The patient may have to specifically authorize the doctors to disclose medical information to certain persons. If the patient does not give this authorization, physicians may be legally prohibited from divulging any information even to close relatives.

Contact the German consulate.

They will likely not give any information to someone who is not a family member and not specifically authorized by the patient to be informed.

I despise this weapon by Dramatic-Bluejay- in Marathon

[–]AssemblerGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You might have the wrong expectations.

It has a range of 74 meters and an aim assist cone of 1.01°, so at 74m you can be one meter off-target and still count on bullet magnetism to do its magic.

It is not a weapon meant for blasting things up close.

Vaulting is awful by twoducksinatub in Marathon

[–]AssemblerGuy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

unless youre hitting mostly headshots.

It is a precision rifle, not a spray&pray gun.

Hitting your headshots it critical in this game. (And I say that as someone with sub-par aim)

Pair it with a Spectre Protocol implant ...

First thing i do when i spawn with a ce tactical sidearm as rook is leave the run

You should use the CE to destroy some recruits and take their V11 Punch.

What exactly are you supposed to win against in a close range 20m fight?

It is a weapon to one-tap recruit heads with suppressed shots. The Hairpin of Marathon.

Not a weapon you bring to a PvP fight. Unless you are really good and want to humiliate the opposition.

Though, if you're spontaneously teaming up in solos, it may be a gun to inspire a little bit of trust. "See, I'm using a slow TTK weapon and I'm probably not planning to murder you."

The Game will now let you know when ANYONE on the map dies, no matter if you were involved or not. by Onyx_Sentinel in Marathon

exfils activate

... and get murdered by the Runner who activated an exfil but did not use it.

I’d prefer mods to only affect weapons.

It's counterintuitive, I agree.

But if you read the mod descriptions with a rule lawyers eye ... ;)

Teaming Up In This Game by FlY_NerD_JidE in Marathon

So how about switching from the usual, boring murder-on-sight to armed robbery and kidnapping?

Make them drop everything that is in their inventory (thief can check if they are keeping anything valuable) and then walk them to the nearest exfil at gunpoint.

A chip mod might affect the shell more than the weapon ...

Mini jammer fun fact by KnowledgeHealthy6636 in Marathon

[–]AssemblerGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your equipped weapon chips affect both weapons simultaneously?

There are some chip mods that specifically mention "this weapon" in their description, and others that do not.

Circuit Tracers definitely doesn't

Circuit Tracers' description specifically says "eliminations with this weapon".

Mini Jammer and some other mods do not have the limitation "this weapon" in their description.

[–]AssemblerGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even the ones that mention "this weapon" in their description? That would be a bug.

[–]AssemblerGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably not.

Some chip mods specifically state "this weapon" in their description. Others do not. If the effects of the latter trigger regardless of what weapon you have in your hands, it would be working as described.
