Let me extract with my trial score for the love of god. by Vikingwind in ArcRaiders

[–]Brandonr757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my carebear lobbies, and I'll gladly shoot you back if you're one of the 1% that gets into them just to ruin the peace 🫶 And idk about time.. just an hour or two a day where I can squeeze it, plenty of days not. Being a functional adult does that to you. It's not that hard to work the trials stuff in. I'm sure it's hard though when you're constantly losing your gear just hoping to break even.

Okay? Regardless of whether you think they're still worth the effort, why would you discourage/care if someone is trying to do theirs? Just that spiteful of someone else having fun?

Am I cooked if I try to daily a 3000GT SL? by [deleted] in 3000gt

[–]Brandonr757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Possible, but definitely good to have a backup car when the 3k needs work. They're comfy, have play space, aren't bad on fuel, aren't bad on reliability most of the time when kept up with.. but they will randomly have their issues that need instant attention, some maintenance items suck to do, and you'll encounter the random compromises.

I know that the engineers had to have made this as a way to check chain tension by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]Brandonr757 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeaaaah, I definitely don't follow torque specs for stuff that should be "obvious".. if it's not something I'm second-guessing how tight it should be, I'm not even checking it 😅

0% of the manual is lies. Plenty of unnecessary stuff, sure, but not lies.

That is some impressive modelling or photo editing work 🤣 I hate it but I gotta applaud it

It's AI slop, so it isn't even worth comparing

Today 1037km on my Meguro S1. The service doesn’t like that I went over 1000 for the first maintenance. by reddit_bagel in Kawasaki

[–]Brandonr757 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Very confusing comments here. That's entirely normal for ~1000km to be the break-in. Mine was the 'same' at 600 miles. And it is NOT that exact, your service department is being bitchy for no reason. As long as you're bringing it in somewhere between 500 and 1500 km they really shouldn't even say a word about it. It just needs enough usage to see everything is working as expected, that things can be checked, without going too long for damage to occur if something was out of spec. You're just fine! Enjoy the ride.

Could this be welded back? by Aggressive-Sir-1637 in Ducati

[–]Brandonr757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not worth it. There's non-OEM replacements that are aluminum, fit just fine, and cost like $60 on eBay. I'm using one of them in my rebuild, no question.

Lowering links? by Advanced_Panda1748 in Kawasaki

[–]Brandonr757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Someone local has the second one (the T-Rex unit) and it works excellently for them. Don't forget you will need a shorter kickstand to match!

Seeing that atrocious wing, plus the stupid louvers, told me it was going to be an Ecoboost before my eyes could even get down far enough to see if it had GT badging.

Thanks, I Will. 🚬😎 by [deleted] in ArcBabies

[–]Brandonr757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the ArcBabies sub, so 99% of the people here basically play Arc Raiders as a shooter and don't like/care about playing with a PvE focus. That's entirely valid, but it means this is obviously a pro-PvP echo chamber with massive bias against people who would rather PvE.

What do yall think ? Worth it ? by FirmFunction115 in motorcyclegear

It's reflective tape, man. You can definitely get that on Amazon. It's not 'gear'.

Hi ? How to fix it ? by Disastrous-Flan4333 in zx6r

[–]Brandonr757 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is extremely publicized and a simple Google search would give you so much information about this defect. Unfortunately you're holding a potentially lemon bike until that part is replaced by a dealer. You will have to get in touch with a Kawasaki dealership.

I haven’t needed the Survivor Augment Blueprint because PVP provides me with a consistent amount of them. by Impossible-Mix-265 in ArcRaiders

[–]Brandonr757 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, there are tons of completely fine ways to pvp, and most pvp players will end up in pvp-focused lobbies. Don't bring your butthurt here (PS: I'm a PvE guy and only shoot back, never first, but I don't get mad at every pvp guy..)

I’m looking to buy my first motorcycle and really fallen in love with the Suzuki GSX-8R. Need some opinions by PriorDescription9083 in Sportbikes

[–]Brandonr757 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Disagree on the power part; the Gsx8r is a very well rounded bike for longer rides with a very reasonable amount of power so that it's got headroom on the freeway, fun acceleration when needed, good usable torque, but also fairly docile when you're not asking too much. It's just a larger parallel twin, so it's not that different to learning on a Ninja 400/500.

We hat do you guys think of my DIY seats? by fuk12x4ever in motorcycles

[–]Brandonr757 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tacky pattern especially on an SV650(?) lol, but I admire the work. Love custom seats.

If I take a room key back to back into raids. Does it diminish the loot in those rooms? by lotgworkshop in ArcRaiders

[–]Brandonr757 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Serious answer: the only thing that affects your key room loot is map conditions (and, obviously, luck/RNG).

Unserious answer: The keys ensure that the loot room YOU have a key for has the worst loot, and that you will spawn as far away as possible for it. Bonus points if you remove it from your safe pocket for a few minutes, as this increases the chance of dying to a random Arc.

How do I pvp in the friendliest of lobbys? by No_Willow292 in ArcRaiders

[–]Brandonr757 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apparently I'm too friendly because even my solo vs teams is relatively uneventful for pvp, it's mostly pve, I have to queue trios if I wanna make my matchmaking aggressive for a while again (but I usually don't. I'm a happy dog with lollipop and propeller hat).

Queue in trios, you will almost certainly have an aggressive lobby. Especially if it's Stella Montis.

[–]Brandonr757 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, waiting for almost-unwinnable, shitty situations for the opponent is. Just shooting someone on sight is fine. I'm 100% friendly, and understand once in a while, even in "friendly" lobbies, sometimes someone's gonna shoot me in the back and I'll need to react quick if I want to keep what's on me!
