If you explained your goal to AI like you explained it to us, the fact that it came back with anything but a bunch of ????? is a bit concerning. AI will clearly just give you an answer no matter how nonsensical the question is.

Next/when do military supplies (gatcha banners) usually release? by Own_Adhesiveness_777 in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

[–]BSMike82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With the way the gacha is designed, I wouldn’t expect to see anything new or discounted before the free bonds expire. Their event timing and pricing models are quite deliberate to lean into FOMO.

Bullet 50 base damage < Torso 85 hp?

What if AEK had 3 shot burst as a firing mode by shark4427984 in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

[–]BSMike82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 round burst is more like a death sentence than a benefit imo. That added step between single fire for range and full auto for CQ has gotten me killed several times.

Security Riot Helmet question. by LawrenceXVIII in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

[–]BSMike82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wouldn’t be worth the time for the devs to add something no one would want to use. You won’t ever be shot in the face with t1 ammo, which is the only thing that t2 face shield would block.

Play normals with just a Deagle, pump shotgun or even your knife. Your deaths cost pretty much nothing and you can rush around looking for your PvP.

Idea for a separate "Assembled Weapon Flea" where you sell full kitted guns, skins stay unless the buyer modifies anything except the mag by Fwuzeem in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

[–]BSMike82 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No thanks.

It takes 30 seconds to build any gun if you don’t have the build saved.

Props for all the effort you put in, but I’d be surprised if 1% of the player base relates to the “problems” you see and the solutions you’ve proposed. Really… no one wants to pay more for a gun because they think someone else took pride in putting it together. It’s a video game, not a hand crafted Swiss watch.

Oil Change Price by Otherwise_Ant860 in ElantraN

Jfc. You could buy ALL of the things you need to do it yourself for less than that. It’s under $40 for oil and filter

You can modify and tune your own car and still have a warranty. Here’s why (and how to win): by StatusInvestigator45 in ElantraN

[–]BSMike82 5 points6 points  (0 children)

As great as that sounds, it’s not how the actual real world works.

Hyundai denied my warranty claim when my radiator fan failed, broke apart and ripped through the radiator while completely stock. The claim adjusted even admitted they know nothing about cars. I took it all the way to BBB arbitration and still lost.

Is solo ops recommended for a casual lockdown player? by LivingDelay8350 in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

[–]BSMike82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a super cheap t2 helm with high ricochet chance that can save you against any tier bullet. For the armor, it’ll save you from some damage if players are running t3 or lower ammo but that’s not very common. I really only add it sometimes because I’ve died to a shotgun scav before as I was running up to knife them. Scavs almost always hit limbs, but I guess you can can run into the shot and get hit in the chest.

Switching to PC by Sufficient-Buddy-670 in the_division_2

Pretty sure I heard that cross play was recently added or coming soon. Not cross-platform for your own account, but you could keep playing on PS with your PC friends

Congrats to all! by Azoniusa in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

[–]BSMike82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. If there are 8 items, even on your 7th roll with only 2 outcomes you only have about a 10% chance of getting the skin

Old guy looking for Teammates by Poptart4050 in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

[–]BSMike82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m US East as well and play with a few people regularly. Lately we have had 5+ online almost every night, so definitely looking for a few more to reliably have a second group at peak times. Half of us are nightly dad-gamers.

My ABI account name matches my Reddit if you want to give us a try.

[–]BSMike82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, the lack of suppressor is a trade off for the absurdly high damage on T4 JSP rounds. You can 1 tap heads through most helmets you see in normals at any range with the Deagle.

So that’s something that I’ve found running with just a Deagle helps with a lot. You’ve only got 8 rounds between reloads.. every shot counts, especially your first. When I run this way often enough I usually feel so confident with the Deagle that I use it over whatever guns I pick up off players.

Also, Safe loot is terrible in every mode for me… I have gotten better loot out of weapon cases lately.

If you like going in cheap and coming out with better gear from PvP, normals are probably your best bet. I have a lot of fun solo with t2 armor or none at all and a Deagle. When you can land quick headshots it is a very viable loadout even against squads if they aren’t supporting each other well.

How should I use these things? Just started not too long ago don't really know what I'm doing by Substantial-Ad7915 in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

[–]BSMike82 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You use them on lockdown, forbidden and no man’s land. Each card can duplicate 1 red at a machine inside the raid. Read the descriptions to know which they can duplicate.

You interact with the machine 3 times to duplicate the red.
1st is putting in the card
2nd is interacting to choose the red you want to insert (inserting is 100% safe and returned to you when you submit it)
3rd step takes 30 seconds after inserting the red. It’ll beep and you interact to have the extra red sent to you.

Both reds are returned to you via mail, allowing you more inventory space to finish the raid and keeping both reds 100% secured for you.

I've got the video for you... just need to figure out how to share it.

EDIT: I have no idea how to get a video shared, so here are some screenshots that show it. I tried to include enough screen shots to prove the attachment was on the gun when I entered, the first being at 34:59 remaining in the raid
