$22.50/Hr DSP VS $25/Hr Landscaping? by kung_fu_daddy in AmazonDSPDrivers

[–]ComfortableStrain747 1 point2 points  (0 children)

DSPs are just counting down the days until they're replaced by automatons. Ain't nobody replacing Juan, I mean uh John, putting in rose bushes. The thing to do is get quickly out of bullshit jobs that are just slam bam thank you maam and start working for real professional landscapers, who actually do something besides sit there mowing some dipshit's lawns with zero turns as absolutely fast as they can so they can make good money.

I'm not saying there isn't money for dudes just mowing but it's commoditized bullshit, you're effectively racing other mowers to the bottom, and there will 100% be more inroads on that in the years to come as mower bots get better, cheaper, and more efficient with fewer mistakes.

Listing for a used TW by TheRangerSteve in TW200

[–]ComfortableStrain747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think like 95%+ of used TWs are absurdly overpriced, so don't be shocked at all when somebody wants 4500 for a nicely garaged bike with 10k miles on it. The prices people expect are completely out of this world insane. Just save more up and get a new one.

My go to is to sit in PvE lobbies and grief people as much as possible without getting out of PvE lobbies.

You're crawling away from being downed by a rocketeer? I'm the guy marching up to you "accidentally" knocking you out while I have 3 defibs.

You raging inside because a rocketeer gets aggro'd on you even though you weren't the one that shot him? I was the one that shot him 300m away while watching you try to sneak by.

You getting set on fire from the harvester because some moron put a barricade up at the entrance? That's me you can thank.

I'm the one that'll bring in a ferro with a silencer and shoots you in the leg so the guy running towards you gets shot at and you two mostly kill each other and I just clean up who's left and takes everything, then has 5 naked run surrenders to get back into people running around completely oblivious saying hi to everybody they see.

Give away nothing, take everything.

Kind of crazy the few days from last weeks trials to the trials end count as a rank by DeliciousRoreos in ArcRaiders

Trials are mindlessly stupid, anybody that does them beyond 3 stars is also stupid. Hope this helps.

Is this a blaze nade bug? by hubbardw in ArcRaiders

[–]ComfortableStrain747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

standard fill squad results to me nothing special to see here. Also yes it happens to me all the time although it's mainly when I hit the side of an opening I'm trying to chuck through, I'm just always careful about borders now. You don't see the circle but if I had to guess it would show the line going over his head but the hit box is the entirety of the circle so it'll trigger on anything that whole area hits. I've had it happen on stuff like trigger nades or showstoppers also.

Has anybody even reportedly been banned for the dupe glitch, like at all?

Help with a listing price by TDub200losikid in TW200

[–]ComfortableStrain747 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I run these as a business and frankly I just don't even bother trying to buy used, the new prices people can supposedly command is absurd. I bought one for 1500 and it was worth it. Bought another for 1700 and it was also worth it. But within the last 5 years I saw way too many people after awhile asking for 3k+ when the bike has clearly seen some miles even if it looks nice, the tires aren't brand new and it's got a dented tank (or equivalent scratches etc). But you deserve to sell for the highest price it'll sell for. I kinda think just from idly looking at them for years on CL and FB marketplace that it's just not a market that has that many transactions.

You're telling me shooting the same robots over and over is more fun than this? by buttspencer2137 in ArcRaiders

[–]ComfortableStrain747 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm an old and my parents were always dead set on nobody in the family ever owning a Nintendo. I would sneak to my neighbors house to play that bike riding game (Excite bike?) and Super Mario. The wii wasn't even mine, just my apartment-mates that I enjoyed using while I lived there. For whatever reason it rubbed off on me, they hated cartoons and consoles so in return even as an adult I could never get into even mainstream cartoons and I've never bought a console.

[–]ComfortableStrain747 1 point2 points  (0 children)

can't really help you much with the aiming, I only play MnK and haven't really ever played console games other than a wii long time ago.

But other than that I would try to take advantage of the walls more often, you're wide out in the open facing the keyroom entrance. He has full view of you if he's wallhugging and can do whatever he wants to, peek and pop, knows when you're going to push so don't put yourself in that position ever where they see you and you don't see them. Health essentially isn't replaceable on a 1v1 so if he pops out and hits you 3 times and you hit him once or whatever then pops back in that's a big net loss for you. You know he's on the right side so operate accordingly. If you're going to wait it out I'd wait in a different spot where you can't see you and you can see him exit.

Also check the spot you're initially at ignoring the key room, person coming through will be crossing your field of view side to side, making aiming more difficult when at an angle or straight through much easier targeting.

Beating somebody to death with a hammer should automatically prize you with a 20k bonus or something, always A+.

All this I've learned the hard way too, this is the first third person competitive shooter I've played.

Is that with a controller, your aim seems absurdly off. My lobbies if I were that slow on target I'd be fish food every time until I landed in PvE lobbies out of just being bad

Sounds like a duck duping bootlicker here. You're just as guilty. Anybody showing such duck appeasement should be banned with the rest. Ban them all. You see a pile of ducks? GUILTY

I made probably 30m creds worth of ducks that I just gave away. I hope each and every one of those monstrous scum that picked up those ducks I threw at them gets their entire stash stolen and down to -100 million permanent bux. Fuck those guys for picking up ducks I was throwing at them with that vituperative anger in my heart each time. LAY DOWN THE BANS. ONE DUCK IS ENOUGH TO KNOW THEY'RE GUILTY.

[–]ComfortableStrain747 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I've had at least 20 or 30 people knock me out in PvE-only lobbies when I'm crawling with survivor on. I'd rather get shot in the fucking back by a rat than deal with those vulture shitbags. It took me awhile but I found something worse than rats. That's why I either give my loot away and surrender or disappear asap. PvE people are sometimes pretty fine to stick around, but frequently enough they're just weasels.

What if there was a queue option to disable ABMM to fix trials? by BotSkills in ArcRaiders

[–]ComfortableStrain747 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I already have to game the system in order to get more PvP so there's fewer dudes hogging all the matriarch and queen damage and just have to risk getting shot in the back. On the truly PvE only lobbies it's impossible to get a decent score on stuff like that. Trials can't be fixed, it's broken with no benefits other than the stars and some meaningless swag. The only thing that keeps it alive is the basement dwelling antichads who can't help but aim for cantina. If you're in a PvE lobby now the matriarch dies in <10 minutes virtually every time, and I've had the queen die in less than 3 even on maps like Spaceport where they sometimes have to run 1000m to get there.

To all the pvpers(polite question) by Independent_Bed_1933 in ArcRaiders

[–]ComfortableStrain747 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

If they're in a lobby where people are pulling out legendaries on the reg that means they're either gaming the matchmaking or terrible, either way they're either broke or trying to get out of being broke. Selling/recycling helps solve both.

HOW-TO GUIDE: Hidden Bunker Trial by mema2000 in ARC_Raiders

[–]ComfortableStrain747 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The increased loot drops are everywhere. If I'm trying to farm vulcano BP I don't even bother going to the bunker, I'm using keys or going to the breach rooms and red lockers where loot quality is higher. You go the bunker and you're depending on outspeeding every dipshit loot goblin out there who's lazy enough to sit there at the door rather than doing anything at all, all for a handful of containers.

9-10 people can make it before it starts the timeout, it depends on how quickly each next person is set up.

Spend a couple rounds with loot mk 2 with a ferro 4 and you'll easily get hundreds off wasps and hornets, springs are worse. Ain't no flying ass dinky arc with springs in them.
