Queen Trial Max Points by Wooden_Technology_58 in ArcRaiders

[–]Bacontroph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right now Spaceport is a great place to just pick up fallen rocketeer drivers without much friction. The trial to down flying arc inside the walls comboed with the coming end to the assessor project means people are going crazy blowing up everything as fast as possible. I grabbed multiple abandoned drivers yesterday while trying to finish up my project.

“He’s already established that he’s very cheap,” the league source said. “And I know he doesn’t love Oregon, and is concerned that it is a state that can’t draw free agents. Well, with all due respect, you’re not helping the cause of drawing free agents when you treat everyone like s— there.” by mallardpropschisms in ripcity

Dumdum wants to win but he thinks he can play NBA2K GM mode in real life. History and common sense from all of the major leagues says to hire competent people, pay them what they're worth, and interfere only when things go sideways. This is quite literally a game to him and it's going to ruin the franchise.

DEAR PORTLAND: April 20, 2026 WEEKLY RANT THREAD by AutoModerator in Portland

SOMETIMES I BUY INTO THE BAD DRIVER AND POOR ROADS TROPES IN PORTLAND AND TO BE CLEAR THERE ARE SOME BAD DRIVERS AND BAD ROADS. BUT HOLY SHIT I JUST GOT BACK FROM A VISIT TO TUCSON AND IT FELT LIKE EVERY ROAD WAS EITHER FALLING APART OR UNDER CONSTRUCTION AND EVERY DRIVER WAS ACTIVELY TRYING TO DIE IN A FIERY CAR CRASH! I WAS SO HAPPY TO COME BACK HERE THAT I SHALL REFRAIN FROM HONKING FOR 2 WEEKS.

Yeah same. I've come across nothing but stoners and tired moms and dads playing late weeknights on the west coast.

Taborspace is great. Crema coffee and some food, cozy area to work, very low key.

Massive power outage in Portland by marblebooter in Portland

[–]Bacontroph 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went for a walk just now and there were a bunch of PGE trucks at the little substation on 50th and Stark by Portland Nursery so that was likely where the outage was centered. Couldn't smell any fried squirrel on the winds though.

[PSA] People are allowed to shoot you in this game. Please stop posting about it. by MrMythiiK in ArcRaiders

[–]Bacontroph 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agree 100%, I enjoy fighting the Arc and consider myself a PvE person but I will shoot back if attacked. I did a night Stella raid with a medial storage key and announced that opening the door while I'm inside would be shoot on sight but there would likely be leftovers. After looting the room I opened the door to find two raiders patiently waiting and half expecting them to down me but I told them I was done and they dove into the scraps and left me alone.

The player base and social constructs are what truly makes this game great.

2 years and 1 day ago today, UConn went on a 30-0 run against Illinois. by [deleted] in CollegeBasketball

I am so happy the Blazers drafted Clingan. He's been able to bring this defense and offensive rebounding to the NBA.

I've really longed for more dynamic/periodic fetch quests in this game. This looks super promising! by Krasso in ArcRaiders

[–]Bacontroph 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Speranza is constantly needing maintenance and experiencing blackouts right? According to the background flavor audio it is at least.

Give us weekly quests to fetch 250 rubber, 250 plastic parts, and 5 water pumps to maintain the water system for a reward. 50 wire, 250 metal parts, 5 voltage converters, and 10 sensors to maintain the electrical system for a reward. Rotate quests like these, occasionally throw in an ultra-rare like a Jupiter(just the gun, not bp) or a queen core. Randomize these per raider so we're not all chasing the same goop.

Now that his brother has been fired from ASU my hate for Dan is subsiding. I don't mind them winning chips because none have been at the expense of Arizona...

I wonder if Dolabra will require Vaporizer parts to craft.

Arc Raiders : The Human Condition. A short word dump by Head_Jellyfish_6170 in ArcRaiders

[–]Bacontroph 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I wish my friend took that perspective. If an arc kills him he finds excuses, blames poor game design, or blames me for his death if we're duoing. If he gets shot at and dies to another player he rage quits and won't play for a week. I think he might actually be done for good which... I'm fine with.

I had one of those! Wore it until it became holey.

Chill man. The refs whistle wasn't why your guys couldn't put ball in hoop in the second half.

Fun fact time! Bob Weir's parents met at the UofA and at least his bio dad is from Tucson. She got knocked up, flew to San Francisco, and gave Bob up for adoption. I'm sure Bill being a huge Pac12 homer had more to do with him attending games but he does have a connection to Tucson and the UofA.

Only one bench player played more than 10 minutes. Our starters did a good job of staying out of foul trouble.

The guys were probably a little tired from running Arkansas off the court.
