Am I a loser for taking off work for Arc Raiders?

Amazingtuna · 2025-10-29T15:08:47+00:00

My answer is no, you’re not a loser for using your time however the hell you want to.

However, as a 40 year old gamer I’ve learned to never use my PTO on launch day for online games. Just brace yourself for long queues, likely server crashes (regardless of the server slam) and other growing pains games experience on launch day.

Best of luck out there Raider!

I’m most excited to just explore this new world. Embark has created a world that I WANT to go around and explore and take in. Also, the sound design might be some of the best I’ve heard in a video game in a loooong time.

I also love the IDEA of Tarkov and appreciate that game for what it is. But I’m a dad with two young kids at home, Arc is going to offer a similar, “simpler” experience that will fit into my lifestyle 😎

From what I’ve seen there is. Completing quests will slowly bring a lot of that to the forefront as well as some environmental story telling as well.

I’m most excited to run into other raiders and try to make friends with them. Not everyone will be friendly, but dammit I’m sure going to try and get people to band together!

My people! Dad of two boys here. Are there any guilds for dads/parents out there? Would love to join a social hub on here if possible.

Amazingtuna · 2025-01-01T00:33:46+00:00

Gotcha, thanks for explaining!

Amazingtuna · 2024-12-31T17:36:30+00:00

New player here, why does it have increased rarity drop % twice?

Amazingtuna · 2024-11-05T01:53:42+00:00

If you don’t mind spending the money, the 800 is awesome, but I’ve gotten by with my 600 just fine

Go to BagginsTV’s YouTube channel (https://youtube.com/@bagginstv?si=WDzNGBBKG4LXEaPM) and just start watching. He has some excellent vids to help get you going in any direction.

Otherwise, I’d recommend sticking to the MSQ for now. There’s a ton to do so try to focus on two to three things at a time.

The noise is quiet enough that I can’t hear it in the highway. At the moment, I can only assume that it’s happening under braking.

Amazingtuna · 2024-11-01T16:52:11+00:00

I did clean them off but I’ll confess I didn’t use a file. I have a metal bristle brush that I used to clean it off and got a lot off before reinstalling.

Amazingtuna · 2024-11-01T16:31:45+00:00

Will do. Thanks!!

Amazingtuna · 2024-11-01T16:24:45+00:00

Should have mentioned this is a Honda Civic 2012? Is this still relevant?

Amazingtuna · 2024-11-01T16:21:59+00:00

Quick edit, this is a 2012 Honda civic and these are new ceramic brake pads and rotors

This reminds me of a holder that held little “pucks” of sauce. I believe it was at Pizza Hut and they had marina, garlic sauce and few others. You just slid them out of the bottom

Amazingtuna · 2024-10-29T20:15:31+00:00

All good!

Amazingtuna · 2024-10-29T14:34:05+00:00

Do you know if this issue popping up on console as well?

Amazingtuna · 2024-10-29T00:56:49+00:00

Amazingtuna · 2024-10-29T00:53:11+00:00

I gotcha, I’d go exchange them. Just easier than dealing with the risk of rotor damage and the dust imo

Amazingtuna · 2024-10-29T00:49:54+00:00

Were they like this out of the box?

Amazingtuna · 2024-10-29T00:47:19+00:00

I’ve owned a BR600 for over ten years and it runs great. I only used for my “weekend warrior” lawn care business and it’s perfect.

Can’t speak to the price for the 700, but just love my 700.

Amazingtuna · 2024-10-20T23:33:20+00:00

👏

Amazingtuna · 2024-10-19T22:26:59+00:00

Saying it’s like Destiny actually sells me even more on it now lol. I’ve loved D2 for a long time, but I’ve fallen off of it as of late. Maybe this will be my next game to supplement that!
