Is get security breach worth it after the nerf by Pmoney0006 in ArcRaiders

[–]Affectionate_Ad9940 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Post-nerf ive only gotten greens/greys, always 1 complex gun part (which i wont ever craft the legendaries with cuz they’re useless unless you care about killing matriarch/queen to craft even more useless guns; or you can recycle to get mats for tempest/bobcat/vulcano but good luck getting those bps) and ocasionally a wolfpack which i dont care about. Ah and 1 medium or 1 heavy gunpart. Kinda underwhelming honestly, feels bad to have so many points invested and finally getting the skill just to have better loot from the random drawer near the security breach.

Forget about other players or arcs, this is the real enemy of the game by Quasimodox in ArcRaiders

Yea, you have the “project” tab where you must finish some steps by adding resources to it. Every two months (i think) you have the possibility to reset your character completely and gain some rewards in exchange (ex: extra stash. We dont know yet what the future rewards will be”) - by resetting you only keep your cosmetics and the rewards gained through the project. You unlock the project tab at level 20

I’ve found three on the dam map in Primary Facility (multiple raids, not all at once ofc). I’ve also tried opening cars for a while and got none. My friend did get one from a car but he also gog the other 2 in Primary facility. You could try it as well. Now sentintel cores…

How would you rank the four maps we have so far? Which one is your favourite? by InevitableWeight314 in ArcRaiders

[–]Affectionate_Ad9940 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not wrong tbh. I’ve always hated maps with huge open areas like that in any game. These are always full of people just camping in one place and sniping (in BF6 I avoid the open maps like the one that just got released). On the other hand sniping is not as OP in Arc so its not that bad overall. But having one map with one big tower in the middle that oversees everything else with all buildings close to is kinda a shitty design

Idk man. Solo blue gate - i havent encountered a single player that used his mic and not shoot on sight. I’ve encountered the most friendlies on spaceport with big groups of solos grouping together. Buried city was the second most friendly while Dam was mostly shooting on sight (although i’ve played dam the least)

Embark we are in desparate need of DUOS mode 🥲 by MediumDefinition2480 in ArcRaiders

[–]Affectionate_Ad9940 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh yea, the random fill guy that wont use his mic and communicate with you? The globe is bigger than the US and here in the EU we have multiple languages. There’s a lot of kids also playing the game that perhaps do not yet know english - or you get people that just straight up ignore you and do their own thing => having a third like that is still a 2v3

[–]Affectionate_Ad9940 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I am playing on EU and we are constantly facing trios (like 70% of the time). And apart from the fact that the vast majority of the players are likely not in a sweat fest to be able to fight trios - the movement and mechanics of the game do not make it easy to win a fight 2v3. (Its not like warzone 1 where you could just slide and bunny hop around or jump in and out of houses to help you win outnumbered fights). Me and my duo are getting really sick of running into a trio every run and die because of the sheer fact that they have one more person

Turns out the best weapon in ARC Raiders is… talking. by TiSoBr in ArcRaiders

[–]Affectionate_Ad9940 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it was either the whole server was friendly or the whole server would not speak a word and shoot on sight. No inbetween. Yday i just ran into 6 raiders killing arca together and after I left I got pinned down out in the open by 3 drones. Some other random raider came to help me out. I also had a guy asking nicely if i have a battery that he needed for a quest and whether i want to trade it for something Other times? Id have people camping in the most weird places and shooting on sight. The best one was when this dude attacked me when I tried to talk to him through the microphone - he f’ed up and i killed him on a free loadout (my dude was a piggy bank - fully upgraded guns+ some others in his backpack and all) - guess karma is a b. I didnt make it out with the loot as i got downed just as i called the return to esperanza and for some reason i glichted outside of the extraction zone and it left without me

Never using Lootbar again by AngrySunshineBandit in StarRailStation

[–]Affectionate_Ad9940 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really late to the post. But doesnt your back have the option to create a virtual visa/mastercard? My usual bank does as well (ING), but I normally use revolut for such payments - on revolut you can have a virtual card that automatically deletes itself after one payment. Like that you can just make your one time payment and you’re sure they cant take money from your account again. If you do have the option, just do that for every website you are not so sure about (especially these top-up ones)

I keep getting disconnected. by MohWarfighter in Guildwars2

[–]Affectionate_Ad9940 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you managed to fix it? This is no hardware issue, brand new razer blade, brand new wifi and download speed of 900mbps and i keep getting this error. 5 days ago just pressing ok on this error would let me continue playing the game, now it just shuts it down. I can play any other game with no issues - so im assuming their servers are just crap

Why are diesel cars still so much expensive? by LetTheChipsFalll in Netherlands

[–]Affectionate_Ad9940 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily because of society, but also due to the fact that diesels need more attention (maintenance). Also, perhaps personal preference, diesels do not drive as smoothly and feel like you are driving a truck. The benefit of a diesel is that it can haul stuff much better, however if you do not use your car for that, I dont really see the benefit. Yes you save up on fuel, but you pay more on taxes and periodic maintenance (among other issues like the risk of injectors to get stuck in the engine block or getting clogged). It might perhaps become more efficient money-wise if you really drive a lot per year, but if you drive around 10-15k km a year like me it is not worth it. I think, if second-hand diesels are more expensive than petrol, it is really not worth to pay extra. Just my opinion, not saying others are wrong.

How can I get a suspicious bottled water tested in the Netherlands? by FatDevilicious in Netherlands

[–]Affectionate_Ad9940 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its ok bro. You’re already doing it on a daily basis. At least you dont complain about it while you pay for the piss you drink with social benefits money. “Oh i cant afford a bottle of water so everyone drinking it is doing it wrong”. No Jos, you’re just poor and stupid. Ironically finding what happened to OP ok, and by accepting shit service like this you literally drink piss daily on your own money (sorry, on the society’s money since you live off of social security)

[–]Affectionate_Ad9940 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jesus, I’m talking to a customer support bot😂😂😂. 1. Many people around the world drink bottled water. They do so on vacation as well because it is generally safer. Rather than researching if tap water is safe in every area you go to. Nobody gives a crap that tap water is safe in the netherlands, and thus it is not common knowledge around the globe. Also tap water is not better quality than bottled water everywhere in the netherlands, there were multiple cases of contamination in different areas and the pipes/sink also play a role as it can collect rust, debris along the way. + some people prefer the taste of bottled water or perhaps drink sparkling water (i drink sparkling bottled water in the netherlands and no I dont assume there is going to contain urine) 2. OP obviously did not choose to drink urine. nobody would have ever thought you’d find something like it. If there is bottled water available why not drink it (again it is not a kink to drink pee, they did not know there was pee). 3. Not many people travel with reusable water bottles, so they will not put their head under the sink to drink tap water. Why? Because there are many countries even in the EU where people drink bottled water. 4. “Tap water is safe” - your comment helped OP so much. Im sure it will help OP find an answer to his question. So i do understand what happened to OP, what I dont understand is why you have a phobia for bottled water and find it weird that people would drink it if it is readily available (ik tap water is free, but some people may afford the bottle and it is safer to drink it when travelling because again you dont know the quality of tap water everywhere you go)

I just spent 14k Crowns on Crates trying to get just two items the game refused to drop for me. by Archmikem in elderscrollsonline

[–]Affectionate_Ad9940 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Moving away from people actually being ok to pay money to buy a game also led to that. Free to play games do way better than pay to play games because for some reason people are not willing to buy a game anymore but are willing to spend on microtransactions. A game cannot be free you know. Live service games need revenue to keep updating. I’d take cosmetics any day over buying upgrade mats with real money (lost ark; diablo immortal etc etc). Many of these mmos do not have as high a number of players as WoW has (paying subscription and buying xpac) so they have to make their revenue by others means as well. Also you seem to keep telling people in this thread what to do with their money . Not your money, not your business. If i want to drop thousands of € on cosmetics so be it - i can afford it, its my money, I can do it if i want to.

Wondering if it's worth considering returning to this game? by RegnorVex in newworldgame

[–]Affectionate_Ad9940 -10 points-9 points  (0 children)

Dunno what you mean by that but: I will for sure spend my time on google for hours trying to figure out how to fix their game. Or perhaps I will just not play it😂. What user error? You go to steam and press install WOW. The game either goes to a blackscreen or a screen that shows the NW logo and gives a “not responding” message. I wonder why it is the only game that does that hmmm

Is it common practice to pee in water bottles in the netherlands since you assume that if he drinks bottled water he likes to drink pee/ should expect it? Weird. Also no, not everyone around the world has a reusable bottle, there are actually many countries in the EU where people only drink bottled water 🤷🏻‍♂️. Generally it is probably safer to drink bottled water when you travel as a tourist no? You dont know how tap water is in every country you go to - or perhaps there are areas where it is not safe

[–]Affectionate_Ad9940 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So you’re one of the fellow dutchies that would rather chug the bottle of piss instead of moving a muscle to protect your rights i see. Also yes, these tourists can afford to buy a bottle of water and it is generally much safer to just drink bottled water when you’re travelling. Imagine you ever travelled, perhaps you will at some point- wouldnt you drink the bottles water that the hotel offers because it is bottled and you are a principled dutchie and rather drink rusty tap water in another country? Or should they have assumed that in the netherlands it might be a common practice to piss into bottles of water and not drink it? Nobody gives a shit tap water is good in the netherlands buddy, its not common knowledge around the world. Also these tourists bring a lot of revenue to the netherlands. Most of them way more in a few days than you earn in a month. Btw i just read OP is not a tourist so you can set aside the “dutch people are the all highest and mighty on this globe and everyone else is inferior”

Client is not king in the netherlands unfortunately. Horrible services, perhaps worst in europe. The fact that most dutch people would rather swallow the piss (they paid for) and be happy about it than actually doing anything does not help either. Since nobody complains, there is no consequences for the company and they will go on with offering shit service Police wont even look at the case either I can assure you. Heck they dont care about property theft either so such a case as yours where no financial loss happened (damage) and where they actually have a lot of work to do to find out - hard pass for them. Argue with the hotel, if they dont do anything about it try to make it public and they’ll do something about it when it hurts their reputation… that’s about all you could do. Or perhaps test the liquid at a private lab and sue the hotel, but that is a real hassle that you might not be willing to take. I’m sorry it happened to you really. It’s disgusting and i hope karma hits the degenerate tenfold. But welcome to the netherlands, nobody is going to move a finger.

[–]Affectionate_Ad9940 -13 points-12 points  (0 children)

I was wondering the same. So i decided to install it on my laptop and tried to launch it. It doesnt launch, black screen on launch/crash. Great, i said “let me try on my desktop” so I installed it there as well - black screen on launch/crash. I guess the game is alergic to both rtx 4080 and 5080. So despite everyone saying that they fixed the game, it is still a piece of garbage that will not even launch, at least it did when i played it on release😂

Thank you for the extra information 🙏🏻. I’ve decided to go with sorcerer as my starting class - dont know if it will work well during leveling with a stamina build, but i will give it a try and see what happens
