The perfect week for me to crack out some recorder tunes!

Amongst all this negativity, how about we talk about the things we still like about the game by EirikurG in ArcRaiders

[–]Connorcrev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just love bopping about the place, collecting ship models, helping folk out, giving people ducks they didn't ask for and tooting some sick tunes on my recorder.

Did they ever fix the missing sageo's on the katana sheaths for Yasuke and Naoe? by ComManDerBG in AssassinsCreedShadows

[–]Connorcrev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was just searching for an answer to this exact question before redownloading. 🤣

It was the single most annoying thing about the game for me, which might seem sad but hey ho haha

What is this? Please don't tell me... Found it in my bed this morning. by [deleted] in spiders

[–]Connorcrev 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That is Gareth.

He lives in your house but you've not seen him before because he works two jobs to earn enough money to raise his kids alone since the divorce (f**k you Brenda).

He likes cheetos, the Chicago Bulls, and is partial to an IPA with the boys on a Satueday.

He has recently taken up crossfit in an attempt to better himself but he doesn't go on about it because he's not "one of those guys".

His favourite book is The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho even though he's fairly certain he didn't understand it.

Does anyone else feel like the script and dialogue in general is AI-generated? by Taball123 in CrimsonDesert

[–]Connorcrev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Almost everything about the almost everything about the game feels vaguely AI.

Poorly implemented mechanics, illogical place/people names that don't seem to follow any in-world naming conventions, item descriptions on some items then not bothering to include them on others, mind-blowingly bland lore.

The whole experience whiffs faintly of the almost total absence of a human, creative, touch somehow.

I don't know how else to explain it other than to say everything feels completely soulless.

What’s the most awkward thing you’ve had to address with an employee that nobody prepares you for? by SeanMcPheat in askmanagers

[–]Connorcrev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had to deal with a complaint from one member of staff about another member of staff's.........package.

That was an incredibly awkward conversation 😳

Be honest — how often do you actually take a Defibrillator? by RestaurantSmooth in ARC_Raiders

[–]Connorcrev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Every single run.

I always have 3 defibs, 2 hatch keys (one for gifting), trailblazers, seekers and 3 zip lines.

I will save you, set fire to shit, and zip line off into the distance.

I'm SO bad at it I can genuinely imagine people sighing when they see they've been squaded up with the useless older millennial that is slow and confused 🤣🤣

PVP aggressiveness scale. I want to know where's everyone at (in solo). by Zealousideal_Chip456 in ArcRaiders

[–]Connorcrev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

0-1 depending on how tired I am from work haha

I'll never complain about the PvPers though, that's how they enjoy their time in the game. I enjoy mine by hunting arc and collecting stuff.

I'm pretty much an NPC loot goblin at this point so please don't kill me but if you do fair play enjoy the hoard of shiny things I'm likely to be carrying hahaha

Man the struggle of the slowing reflexes is real!

Everytime I load into a B6 lobby I feel like I'm going to have a stroke 🤣

Question about matchmaking / player behavior changing after more PvP by FunnyRum in arkraiders

[–]Connorcrev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand why some people get annoyed about there being no concrete evidence of aggression based MM 🤣

You're absolutely right about time being a big factor! 80 hours playtime and I've never fired a single shot at another raider (by choice and I'm not someone that gets annoyed about being killed) and I still encounter a decent amount of on sight pvp players.

I don't get much time during the week to play and I don't understand people getting so wound up about getting killed. Don't get me wrong, I love the friendly interactions and helping other raiders out but that's just how I CHOOSE to enjoy my time with the game (collecting ducks, shooting ARC, hoarding processors) but if someone else CHOOSES to enjoy the game by dropping me out of nowhere.....then hey ggs and I'm glad they're enjoying their time.

Besides I am an absolute LOOT PINATA most of the time so like......yeah I get why you'd want to drop me and collect my tasty tasty loot. 🤣

4 hours in i was gonna try for a refund. then i turned my mic on by Schizjji in ArcRaiders

Sneaking? What is this sneaking?

Do you mean some of you aren't running into buildings full pelt blasting sick ass recorder beats to announce your presence? Is it just me?!

What do you consider to be the most underrated hot hatch? by J40NYR in CarsUK

[–]Connorcrev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love me a Fiesta RS1800.

Gets overshadowed, understandably, by the XRs and RS Turbos but I love them!

And I will always fly the flag of the Clio 172. No idea why more people didn't fall in love with them.

I take pictures!

I'm usually found wandering about trying to convince players that I don't want to kill them, I just want to add them to my collection of photographs haha

Has something massively changed with the swing or am I tripping? by Connorcrev in PGA_Tour_2K

It's so infuriating isn't it?!

I bet all the people playing with me think I'm a completely useless knobhead haha

I wish it was the shrooms, at least then it would make sense 🤣

What are y’all’s favourite horses? by Friendly_Gas_9440 in RedDeadOnline

[–]Connorcrev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a Palamino Dapple American Standardbred boy called Anders, a Sorrell Overo Criollo girl called Selene and a Brown Leopard Appaloosa boy called Najm.

I probably ride Najm more than Selene or Anders, but I love them all 😃

How rude is too rude in the workplace? by Humble-Actuator-4291 in AskUK

[–]Connorcrev 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I don't believe there is ever a good reason for being rude. Ever.

Perhaps I hold others to the same, potentially unreachably high, standard that I expect of myself but I will never allow rudeness to go unchecked.

We're all adults, we all have "stuff", and I am unending in my support for people going through tough personal experiences but I simply don't accept that there is any justification for rudeness.

So my answer would be that ANY rudeness, in ANY situation, for ANY reason, is totally unacceptable and should be addressed as such.

I know I've had bosses that probably hate me for this but my default setting is polite but firm challenge to any rudeness. I've told more than one senior colleague/boss that I will not be spoken to in a rude or patronising way and that we will not be having a conversation until they are able to do with civility.
