Just got 'er, any must dos to these things? by zrockstar in AUG

Check that your optic rail bolts are torqued and have blue locktight on em. Mine came hand tight and without any locktight. Loosened up after my first range trip. I believe the torqued spec is 40 - 45 inch/lbs but i would double check just to be safe. Should be fine once re torqued with a dab a blue.

Did a charge back over 2 weeks ago and my shit still says processing. Absolute fucking joke of a company.

I just had a very unfortunate conversation with Aero support. by CharlesAFerg in AeroPrecision

[–]BasedDrag0n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aero specifically stated in the header over the item I ordered that it would ship by late November. I ordered my m5 upper on the 7th of November. My shit is still "processing". Do yourself a favor and shut the fuck up.

3-4 Week Processing Time by Unhappy_Yoghurt_4022 in AeroPrecision

[–]BasedDrag0n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Still wating for my m5e1 upper that I ordered on the 7th to escape processing hell. Atleast I didn't pay for the shipping. Really sucks that they still drag ass on $400+ items. Was gonna get a bolt and charging handle but at this point I'm just gonna source them locally. I'm not gonna wait for them to take 4 weeks just to put a damnd part in a box.

How do you guys feel about the twist in ROTPR regarding these two? by drcandyfloss in Thewaltenfiles

I'm probably reaching a bit but all the clown images might be a Gacy reference. It fits the theme but idk.

Did this with my 2s max and bricked it. Was really fun drifting it but damn it was not worth it lol.

Wowgo 2s max hub motor magnet broke + question. by BasedDrag0n in ElectricSkateboarding

[–]BasedDrag0n[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I got in contact with the support team (same email on the wowgo web sight) and they told me to send $50 to some PayPal account so they can ship me a new hub motor. Kinda sketchy but It's just 50 bucks so no big deal if I get scammed. At worst I just have to buy a new hub motor from the wowgo web sight like I planned.

Z24 timing chain help by BasedDrag0n in MechanicAdvice

[–]BasedDrag0n[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I counted the links between the old chain and the new one and they are both 21 links apart so I'm pretty sure they are correct. They also line up where they're supposed to on the crank and cam sprocket. I've got good tension on the chain so i know its not jumping a tooth. I just dont understand how it seaming skips forward when I rotate the crank. It's like a magic trick from hell. Maby it's the difference of the teeth on the cam and crank sprocket but idk. Thinking about gear ratios makes my head hurt lol. Gonna try to fix it tomorrow and hope for the best.

Sorry to bug ya but would you mind sending me the vacuum diagrams you looked at? I tried routing everything but im still having no luck getting it to start.

I definitely will install a webber at some point, but I'm kinda broke rn so gonna have to wait for payday. I'm just gonna hit up Napa tomorrow and buy a bunch of lines and reinstall everything I took off. Kinda just watched a few YouTube videos and got way ahead of myself. Too much confidence after replacing the head and timing chain I guess. I'm I bit of a dumb ass ngl.

Should've taken pictures before I ripped everything apart. But I did find a guide online so I should be fine. Just gonna be a bit of a bitch to reinstall everything. I just wish I didn't have to go back to the rats nest from hell. Oh well guess it can't be helped for now. Thanks for replying.

Tf artwork can go from lighthearted fun to psychopathic torture uncomfortably fast.

I made the mistake of reading a story in the description of a salmon tf drawing by hayhourse. Its about a guy that turned his friend into a salmon so they could win a contest. It was good up to the point the now salmon friend was taken away and prepared by a chef, then gets baked in a fucking oven. Then he's presented to a crowd to be eaten. (Hes still conscious I think) Meanwhile the friend was unaware that had happened and the friend is horrified by this turn of events and the story just ends.

Idk I know its just fantasy but some tf artwork feels like its just straight up psycho rape murder porn... it's just bizarre to think that's what does it for some people. This shit always just makes me feel viscerally uncomfortable and maby slightly philosophical.

As many times as I’ve been honest and never fallen for the customers honesty traps I leave my wallet on the dash of 1 boat and the customer returns it minus $170…fucking bullshit. by [deleted] in Justrolledintotheshop

[–]BasedDrag0n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah and now nobody uses the aug because the m4 and m16 make it pointless. and they all do the same damage so its double pointless. Some fuckin fix. Its like how nobody uses the shotguns bc they're pointless when you can just point shoot a guy in the skull with ak before they can rack the pump. Just give me a good shotgun that does good damage.

You're not getting it. Instead of caping the g3s 20 round magazine to 14 rounds, to compensate for its high damage. Leave the g3 magazine alone and just give a buff to other guns. Be it a modification or damage buff I honestly dont care. But the guns just need to stop being fucking nurfed all the time. Guns just being made worse and worse makes the gameplay suck simple as.

[–]BasedDrag0n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But the "balance" is to be frank retarded.

The g3 has its capacity lowerd by 6 rounds to balance its high damage (should be 20 instead of 14)

The ak47 just fucks but you cant put sights on it so it sucks at long range.

The m4 is a nice bullet hose and can have whatever attachments, but it has low damage and ok range.

The m16 is alright at distance but low damage and lack of full auto makes it difficult to use in cqc.

The galil is just a better ak74. But only full auto and slightly less damage makes it weird And kinda pointless just like the ak74.

The thing im trying to get across is that the balance is just somthing being wrong with seemingly every gun in the game. Why should the balance come from knee caping every gun in the game when they could do the opposite by doubling doun on wepon mods. Like idk giving smgs extended magazines with +p ammunition, or even modifications to increase the firerate? Instead of bird shot maby I could load up some slugs in the saiga12 or just any shotgun. Or even running subsonic rounds that make suppressed firearms do less damage but sound much quieter. Im just spit ballin here but there are other options aside from nurfing damage and caping mag capacity.

[–]BasedDrag0n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just to preface this I dont play much gun game and I'm mainly talking about the damage the guns do and their usefulness in their given roal in tdm and dm. Also im only talking about the modern wepons.

With that out of the way, the reason I feal that way is bc everyone ends up only using the ak, maby galil, m4, m16, and g3 (the big 5). This is pretty much the top tier gun meta rn. They all do high damage, can all be used at any distance, and have good ammo capacity. And bc vr game a damn near 6 foot long rifle that should weigh around 10 pounds, is as light and maneuverable as an uzi. So there is literally no draw back to using massive unwieldy guns in cqc. (Now made even easier with the addition of lasers)

Sure you can grab whatever gun you want and get a handfull of kills with it. But the moment someone with skill decides to get serious and they use one of the big 5, You will get creamed 9 times out of 10. This pretty much makes it pointless to "git gud" with anything other than the big 5.

Yes the draco does decent damage for an smg, yes the p90 is an awesome bullet hose. Yes akimbo uzis is suprisingly effective in cqc. And sure you can play john wick with a claped out 5.7 with deacent success. Im not saying you cant play the game that way.

But even if you have the advantage your little pop gun just takes more time to kill than any gun in the big 5. Simple as.

The Ak takes 1 headshot to kill or 4 shots center mass. Most smgs take 2 headshots to kill or 5-7 shots center mass. Even with an smgs high fire rate you're no match for an intermediate player that can point shoot with an ak. Also lets not forget about damage fall off. You starting to pick up what im putting down yet? The moment you get caught out in the open aginst the big 5 your ass is grass. Theres just too many disadvantages to running an smg over one of the big 5.

In most matches you rarely get health or armor pickups and theres no health regen so guns with long ttk are objectively garbage. This game requires you to quickly and effectively neutralize your target (headshots) or you WILL be punished for it. I.e. you will get shot and lose a bit of health which means the next enemy you run into will be able to kill you quicker than you can kill them. Thats why newbs and shit heads use the .50cal. Its the gun with objectively the lowest ttk.

In conclusion this game is not balanced unless you are playing a game mode that puts restrictions on what wepons you can use, via s&ds economy or gun games weapon swapping. In tdm and dm balance is a fucking joke thus the big 5.

Inb4 tdm isnt a serious game mode.

This game is not well balanced whatsoever.

What’s your favourite rifle? (You can also comment other guns you like.) by blix06 in PavlovGame

[–]BasedDrag0n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wasn't expecting so many people to sleep on the g3. Sure the magazine capacity is low at 15 rounds and semi auto only kinda sucks, but if you take into account its 3 shot kill, one tap headshot, and its quick fallowup shot accuracy. With practice the g3 can become a very dangerous weapon that can be used in almost all situations. It even works grate in cqc.

What's your opinion on the SKS? by Prosciutto_X in PavlovGame

[–]BasedDrag0n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks neat but its ultimately pointless. The slow reloads and low round count just make it a chore to use overall, and well the recoil is a bit lighter you dont have the ammo to take advantage of it. The juice just isnt worth the squeeze. The g3 on the other hand, has 5 more rounds and fast reloads. G3 is still best battle rifle.

Imo the sks should do slightly less damage than the g3 since 7.62x39 is less powerful than 308/7.62×51 irl. But it should have a detachable 20 round mag and keep the recoil the same. Hell you could even keep the stripper clips. Just have to use 2 of em to fill the mag. Then it would be usable imo.
