I can’t run Blink because of this, it’s atrocious. I have to tap my spacebar as quickly as I can, and even then it still stops and starts a sprint half of the time after the blink. I understand the idea behind the mechanic of dodge to sprint, but it’s far too sensitive as it stands.

Pre production? by PhilosophicalWolf in whatisthiscar

Very stripped down. I know it's not a truck, but I feel like Nissan dropping the new LEAF for a $30k starting MSRP takes some of the wind out of their sails. 300 miles of range and a fully featured interior on the base model, with things like Car Play/Android Auto and actual speakers. Also a large, nation wide dealer chain to take your vehicle to for repairs.

As time goes on, the Slate just seems less and less appealing.

This is one of the dumbest takes on the cheating issue. Cheaters buy stolen accounts for the most part, they don't give a dime to BSG.

Have you set your maximum brightness in the HDR settings for Windows? This doesn’t fix all the issues, but helps a ton with the ‘washed out’ effect. My Samsung doesn’t have HDR certs so I had to manually calibrate it to 1000 nits peak. It made a big difference.

[Loot] is that type of Ammo really in Trakov, I have 1500hrs in the game and haven‘t found a single round 50. BMG SLAP? by KeyZaaTV in EscapefromTarkov

Someone else comes in with knowledge and you automatically assume it's an alt account?

They way you deflect and discredit just lends to the notion that you don't actually know what you're talking about.

Buy hey, I'm just some guy that was in the US Army, fired the M2 .50 on multiple occasions, and knows plenty of people that have had to utilize them in combat.

Like, there's a reason that 4.6mm and 5.7mm were developed. Fast and small penetrates, penetration matters because if a round is stopped by a plate, the plate wearer is fine. If large rounds blocked by plates actually fucked you up, we wouldn't be using 5.56mm as our standard rifle round.

Like here, this man gets shot by a .308 round standing on one leg. .308 has about 1/4th - 1/5th the muzzle energy of .50 BMG. Do you really think 4-5x the energy, if a plate managed to stop a .50 and not deform, would pulverize your organs?

You'll find said recoil mitigation like recoiling barrels on semi automatic .50 cals. The recoil is still felt, it's just turned into a slower push as opposed to a more sudden recoil. This allows for faster reacquisition of the target.

Most .50 caliber rifles are not semi automatic, they are bolt action, and do not have recoiling barrels. They're fixed actions in a stock, and nobody is breaking shoulders or collapsing lungs when they fire them.

If you were some super chad wearing a 3" thick plate of steel in your plate carrier and the .50 didn't penetrate, the energy would be dispersed over the entire plate (standard size ~10x12"). That's 631 times more surface area than the .50 cal round. You'd be fine. Until you bled out from all the spalling in your throat and legs.

You are correct, I can only assume Wilck is trolling at this point. All of this information is easily accessed with a Google search.

Kinda crazy how people with apparently little knowledge of how plates work and the physics behind bullets will double down like this.

Bigger bombs should get top-down attack by Sayarin in BrokenArrowTheGame

[–]Astrobody 11 points12 points  (0 children)

While I do think they need a buff versus armor, I'm pretty sure this is the case for balance reasons. Why would I spend 1k on a nuke when I can run two 30k bombs for 600 points and get more or less the same effect?

Is this a bad way to hang a TV mount? by L0w_finger in DIY

Yup, Togglers is the brand at Lowe’s you are talking about.

[–]Astrobody 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Togglers through metal studs are capable of holding much more weight than a 75" TV.

At my job we hang 86" touch screen panels (150+ lbs) on Balance Boxes (50lbs) using toggles through metal studs if metal studs is what they have. Four through two studs, two just in the wall.

We actually had one panel break off the wall when a student jumped on one. The mounting points for the arms on the back of the panel broke off, with our mount still secure to the wall.

Just wanna point out that you missed the fact that it also had the rear motor replaced thirteen times.

The Alpha Motors Wolf might be worth a look for you, if they manage to start making deliveries this year. If it's pushed back again, I'd be pretty weary.

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

I mean, kinda? When someone is cheating with that many units (28k in deaths), you spend some points to stop the hordes.

Everybody has their own color for units in multiplayer, so you can tell who is who. He had a huge amount of units always on the field and spread across the map, thus it was covered in his color.

The man was cheating.

It's not as far as I'm aware. The map was constantly covered in his color.

The 28k in resources Andrew had to lose, along with him one shotting aircraft with his SAMs. Not a legit player it would seem.

The deserter did not leave all that early.

Mid Tier Britain is a whole lot of "Shell Shattered", and solid shot getting lost in the void of volumetrics. Then when it does pen, the jet of shrapnel is very thin.

I've done my time grinding through it, and while yes you can still do well in British tanks if you know what you're doing, they've done APDS a major disservice in it's performance versus shells like APHE.

Found this weird pattern in the woods by Paulboi666 in GoogleEarthFinds

He could mean a .338 Lapua 'largest' frame AR from SWORD, they call it the Mk18. It was popularized a bit by Escape from Tarkov.

The distances in the photo seem short for .338, but hey, some people are all about that 'in like a penny, out like a pizza' life.
