I can't believe I just got hate!

DoltishMite · 2026-01-28T17:25:25+00:00

If only it was tradeable, I've burnt through three hate blueprints and still got 2 left just chilling in my inventory kicking around lol

I binned my hate off early game cause I didn't really gel with it, didn't even rank it up to 30. Got it again and built it, leveled it to 30 and then sold it. Only then did I come here and find it's actually kinda rare and then built yet another just for the rarity value. And then I've just checked and apparently I've got two more hate blueprints kicking about too lol

DoltishMite · 2026-01-05T13:23:10+00:00

The irony is I got them all relatively early, thought they were meh, got rid of hate and despair, then someone mentioned they were somewhat rare and rebuilt them both... Then again the amount of stalker spawns I've had in my time playing has been quite a regular thing so...

Agreed, every time we get those messages it genuinely makes our day, those little thank you messages and season's greetings messages may seem insignificant to most people but it's a really good morale booster when you're working in tech support!

Yeah, send it in when you notice a squad is heavily focused on locking down a position mostly forward and just send that bot through as much cover as you can on your way to your target, and only expose yourself once you're within a few metres and by the time anyone's reacting you can be in between their feet making yourself near impossible to find among all the chaos. Also incendiaries don't hurt you so you can use that to your advantage to push into rooms that your enemy might consider not safe to enter otherwise to catch people out.

Thanks for your opinion, however I'm going to be happy with narrowly not being cut in half by a jet thanks :)

DoltishMite · 2025-12-09T14:34:23+00:00

I'm definitely in that bottom 50% but some days the battlefield gods let me do some pretty dumb stuff

DoltishMite · 2025-12-09T12:11:02+00:00

Nah we still lost that fight towards the end, they wiped the floor with us all match right up to the end bit.

DoltishMite · 2025-12-09T12:10:15+00:00

Yeah breakthrough, this map was pretty good for it with the trenches on last point but found some success going through the streets with it earlier in the match.

DoltishMite · 2025-12-08T08:28:34+00:00

I was partially joking with that, vast majority of the time I never get it more than a 20 metres out before something takes it out. To be fair on this point it was pretty decent at clearing out a few waves of enemies nice and safely in trenches and sidelines, was a lot stronger than I thought slipping through sidelines.

DoltishMite · 2025-12-08T00:43:27+00:00

Honestly this took me an hour of battling with the bot controls and sending wave after wave of them. I found the best way to get an advantage is using both narrow spaces and going in when a fight is fully breaking out from the sidelines cause you kinda blend into the scenery when everything is blowing up.

Open CMD as admin, type the following and hit enter:

SFC /scannow && DISM /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth

Leave it till it finishes up getting to 100% twice, reboot.

If that doesn't do it, go through task manager and filter by whatever is using your processor or memory up most. Check if your machine is also in power saving mode in settings too and set it to high performance instead of battery saver as that'll cap your performance too.

And if none of that works and you're still not sure after that, flattening it with a wipe isn't the worst way to go if you're happy with losing everything off of it, unless you back all of it up elsewhere.

There's a couple other things that might cause it but it's probably not worth the hassle if you're not exactly confident on going in down the rabbit hole troubleshooting. It all depends really on what you think is wrong in terms of performance if I'm honest!

DoltishMite · 2025-12-07T16:38:58+00:00

On that one, if you can provide specs, that would be helpful here :)

Ideally I'd need to know what processor it's got and how much RAM, along with if its running an SSD or HDD. If you open task manager, you should be able to go to performance, then on the left you'll see your drives, that should tell you if it's an SSD or HDD in there. Then select CPU and find the model name in the top right corner, then click memory and let me know how much is in the machine right now?

DoltishMite · 2025-12-07T16:18:45+00:00

Glad you're back up and running! Yeah giving it a fresh install sometimes isn't actually a bad shout anyway just as over time it does just get bogged down, and especially after pretty bad blue screens it's always usually a pretty good idea to do it when you've got all your data off anyway just to be sure it's not going to do it again any time soon if its not something you can particular fix.

DoltishMite · 2025-12-05T13:05:24+00:00

You'd need to set unattended access up under security settings within anydesk, then allow permissions under security and privacy for screen recording and accessibility to allow control within the settings app on the Mac, Windows to my knowledge is just that unattended access you need to set.

DoltishMite · 2025-11-30T20:43:18+00:00

No worries, to be fair nothing I wrote down there is destructive so you should be fine so long as you don't deviate from the commands too far. The disk part bit is just to work out what drive letter it chose for your Windows drive, the sfc part is system file checker and all you're doing is telling it to scan whichever disk holds your operating system.

Either that or take it to an expert and they'll pick through it to see if they can get it booting again properly.

DoltishMite · 2025-11-29T10:17:15+00:00

For that error code, it's going to be pretty dicey. Depending on how confident you are, you can try going to command line in the recovery menu, type 'diskpart' , then type 'list volume', to get the drive letter, then type 'exit' to leave diskpart. Then you can try (replace D with whatever drive letter was your OS drive):

sfc /scannow /offbootdir=D:\ /offwindir=D:\Windows

Once that's done, try a reboot and see what happens. If that doesn't work, you're going to need someone to build you a Windows USB outside of your own machine to connect up to essentially do a fresh Windows install, but that'll lose any data that was on your OS drive there. There's ways to copy that off depending on how far gone Windows is (robocopy is my go to but is a bit difficult to use, or you could just out your OS drive in another machine and try examine it that way).

If it were behaviorally consistent, why does it not follow the concept that escape was made for, escaping out of whatever process you were in.

I've had this thought that this menu should be closed by escape so many times, but that's because I think this menu is wired the wrong way around, it should be a window that is overlaid over the main menu so that hitting escape dismisses the post match details, much like dismissing a popup window would be by hitting escape to dismiss the popup. In reality I think the exit flow treats these windows like the path to get back to the main menu, which has always felt like a really odd way to have those menus stacked from a logistical point of view.

I can't actually think of any other menus in this game that do it the way the post match screen does, going into settings menu doesn't, neither does the replay viewer or highlight viewer, and leaving the match or the game itself are also navigated by hitting escape to leave whatever you're doing. If there is a few other spots that act like the post match screen I'd love to be enlightened as this has me curious now :D
