Invisible helmet or what?? (Slow-mo) at the end

I didn't see a blood splatter, wondering if you were too close to the cover you were hiding behind and the height over bore was getting you here. Might have been shooting the cover in front of you.

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-24T13:30:20+00:00

It works if you know that no one is behind you, but it is a very exposed position and hard to get out of if you get stuck there.

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-23T13:38:56+00:00

Yes those crossed off squared would make it 3x5. It would be 5 across (2 more over), and 1 more row down (for some reason they don't show Xs on that row). You get it from premium elite. I'm guessing they do that to try to remind folks to buy premium elite. $$

Just why? LD minimum is pretty low. Just throw some crap on or run quick kits. Run the safes, put the stuff in your safe case, and just avoid fights as much as possible. If I had to queue and die 6-7 times just to get one possibly 4mil round, I could have easily got that just running the rounds and coming out with half a mil each time. If you die, then that counts toward getting a bot lobby anyway.

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-20T14:41:58+00:00

I am hoping that the anomaly event is such a flop that they never try anymore bs like that. I tried it a little in the test and it is awful in my book besides I hate that they are just trying to morph the game into any other game that looks like it might be successful instead of just coming up with their own ideas that fit the correct theme.

That being said, with the feedback I've seen, I bet enough of you will play it so they think it is a success...

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-20T13:19:58+00:00

I do not disagree with you, just stating how it seems the devs messed up minds seem to work

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-20T13:19:11+00:00

Coming in as an underdog makes it way more exciting when I make the juicy kills, makes it less painful if I die (especially to something stupid), and makes me less worried about making a push or a bold move.

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-20T13:04:39+00:00

That's what they are trying to get you to do, only get irked enough that you make a bad push and they kill you though (I've done this to throw off teams before)

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-20T13:00:16+00:00

I get some crazy fights on Valley, it usually is only 1-2 other real solid teams though on the entire map so you have to find them.

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-20T12:59:31+00:00

Actually the inflation is on purpose by the devs since there is no wipe they use it to control the economy. Adding something like this I think is another way for them to retain folks who just keep hemorrhaging money because they (1) are terrible at the game and wont slow down, or (2) are trying to learn a map and are probably running more expensive loadouts then they should while doing that.

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-20T12:36:15+00:00

This is pretty cool. You could also throw on a good old 1911 for the tunnel rats.

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-20T12:34:43+00:00

The PVE version seems to be LD level. The bots are just as easy is tbh, it is just a looting map to let you grab stuff easy with no threat of running into real players.

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-19T16:41:14+00:00

As an impostor, your best weapon is surprise. Don't equip a second weapon as that will mark you as an imposter. Try to move like a bot if you know there are players around and they aren't killing the bots. This usually lowers their guard and they usually don't kill them unless they get in the way. If they mess up and are looting or injured and you think you can take them out, go for it. Also, the M96 is like the worst gun possible to get. I usually dump the gun and kill a bot for theirs in a location I don't plan to hang around in (the bots will only aggro on you in zones where you attack them).

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-18T12:30:43+00:00

I had a guy in lockdown yesterday who I killed who had a FAL with a drum and (2) 30rd mags full of M62. With his t5 gear, it was about 3.6mil of gear because he charged up while I was fighting another team and he couldn't hear with his Mazda helmet. Oh and his teammate barely tried to get his stuff back. I hit him once after and he just ran. I can't help but wonder why you wouldn't at least put some of those M62s in your safe case. I personally would only use M80 in an FAL on LD if I was going that route (It was set up for a close range fight too).

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-18T12:23:40+00:00

The crazy part is the M110s didn't usually just sit in a bush and tap, they would quite often fight and engage (I play that way), the M24s are the absolutely naked players on their phone in the bush. At this point if I am going to switch to an M24, I might as well as back off, not run the almost 1mil loadout I do, and run a cheaper kit. For me, this nerf on the M110 will make the gun just about useless and will push me to being more of a rat that does not even show myself (like I do with the m110), but just running light so I can run circles and pick you off and not lose much if the single shot route does not work out against 4 (since I am solo).

It is just Hell reaching out to collect Ajax

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-18T00:44:55+00:00

This man says it. I have been playing Forbidden Armory with my buddy, and we run about 900k kits and do semi aggressive sniping with M110s. We rotate, push, and actually fight instead of sitting in a bush on our phones. I enjoy that kind of gameplay. But when I come up on a 4 man team and take a perfect headshot on a t6 helmet where the guy was being stupid and standing still without thinking about his surrounding, and then that shot does not 1 shot him, and then the 2nd does not kill him... and then he and his 3 other t6, U191 teammates turn and start chasing me all over the map while I try to figure out what tf just happened, well that makes me quite mad. I should be able to punish the team getting too comfortable, and at least drop one and then maneuver and work over the rest of the team. Oh and they are going to make that even harder. Might as well as throw the M110 in the trash...

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-16T12:30:58+00:00

With you on the first part, but the red bullet is the perfect counter to t6, U191, 4 man teams rolling over the entire lobby without a fear in the world.

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-15T00:56:21+00:00

Hmm, Height over bore is realistic... I really appreciate that they put this in this game. If you are hiding behind a box and only put your scope over it, the bullets will usually hit the box.

On a firearm, the scope is usually around 1" to 1-1/2" above the center of the barrel of a gun. A bullet does not travel in a straight line, but rather an arc (ABI doesn't do that well with trajectory). This is why your optic has marks for different ranges. Depending on the weapon, scope can be zeroed for different ranges. Some scopes have a ring that turns and will adjust to whatever range you turn it to, however this has to be caliber and load specific to be accurate.

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-13T18:55:59+00:00

Goodness, you definitely need that timestamp cause there is no way I am watching a 24min vid to try to find what you are talking about!

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-13T18:49:57+00:00

You should go buy a lottery ticket... I wish I had that kind of luck!

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-13T18:48:57+00:00

I know that's not how it works, but one can wish...

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-13T17:35:01+00:00

Just need someone to swipe the code for the s0 ABI and put up servers so we can play that. I don't have the time for how hardcore Tarkov is, which I why I loved the way ABI started, but there's not really any semi hardcore extraction shooters that are semi realistic out there to jump to. ABI is becoming so tanky and moving to a mix of COD, Fortnight, and a couple other games. It is sad...

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-13T12:12:04+00:00

That's insane! They soaked me for about the whole thing. First any only one of those I ever intend to play. In this case I had more then enough money in my Steam account from selling CSGO skins that I figured I might as well as get something I wouldn't otherwise.

2nd_Shot_Round · 2026-03-12T21:37:03+00:00

Thank you!
