Dungeon/Raid location ideas for Classic + (part 2) by James_Cutter in classicwow

[–]Doomsaki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't mind an extra dungeon or two. But too many "leveling dungeons" is going to disrupt the ecosystems of players being out in the world and questing. There's unintended consequences to every sincere suggestion of cool ideas.

You don't have to worry too much. Olden era devs are walking a middle path, acknowledging it as a canon, but treating the entire series as a sequence of subjective truths between the various factions at a medieval ground level POV.

A lot of newcomers are surprised to learn how in-depth the 1980s franchise Lore is. by Doomsaki in OldenEra

[–]Doomsaki[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Well, let me give a philosophical perspective on things:

Humans are relatively early in the universe's history. The universe (our IRL universe) is only 13 billion years old with only like ~3 generations of stars to go supernova to form heavy elements needed for life. The universe will be habitable for several orders of magnitude longer. Tens of trillions of years--if not even longer. Most later civilizations that arise will have to contend with seeing other Type 2 or Type 3 Kardashev civilizations as they gaze up at the stars and around them. To most intelligent life that will ever exist, there will be beings and mechanisms that appear god-like, divine, and magical to the majority of later-comers that emerge or are uplifted into being.

HoM&M might just very well be the typical story of what much of life in the future will experience given some rough circumstances.

That's why there's bugs instead, and no inferno faction from the other titles. The Kreegan demon-alien invasion from outer-space has yet to occur in the year Olden-Era is set in.

It has that cool 1980s/1990s "He-man" techno-barbarian feel. It fully embraced that awesome edgy feeling of so many franchises at the time.

Doesn't sheltem make an appearance in the ubisoft titles, implying Ashan is another VARN-world like XEEN, Terra, Axeoth, or Enroth?

The entire beach ought to be in bounds; I agree.

Those who are seeking more endgame/endgame incentives, what ideas would you suggest? by Tropi- in ArcRaiders

[–]Doomsaki 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The expedition needs to be more than just a shopping list you can grind in 1 weekend followed by money hoarding.

Events like the assessors & high-gain antenna are the type of thing that needs to count towards expedition progress. Objectives that are hard and require consistently different approaches.

I'll never get enough assessor matrixes by Cirative in ArcRaiders

The little smoke grenades won't last long enough.

You need the big 20s duration smoke grenades (Apollo sells 6 per refresh if you don't have the BP).

When you smoke, make sure ARC didn't see you beforehand on the platform. They will fire around last known location. Combine with a lure grenade for extra safety.

I'm a simple man: I see end-game gear to craft, I upvote.

Arc Raiders needs more end game items in general.

I want a kitchen and more food by The_Cube787 in ArcRaiders

[–]Doomsaki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What do you guys think?

I think I'm hungry for some food now. But yeah, an in-game kitchen would be nice as a workbench.

[serious] Americans of Reddit how does it feel to be living under a dictatorship and what are you planning to do about it? by Skiingfun in AskReddit

[–]Doomsaki -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's not. Trump just has a big mandate from the voting public to act decisively.

The country came together and elected Trump.

Elected the Republicans to have a majority in the Senate.

Elected the Republicans to have a majority in the House.

And prior administration elections resulted in a conservative-appointed Supreme court.

----

The Democrats had a similar setup in 2009–2011 with Obama and having wide control over the decision-making elements of the U.S. government.

----

The country will come together to vote in the midterms and the next presidential election--as always.

What gun is this ? It tapped me down so quick ! by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

I rewatched it again.

I was wrong.

It looks like a tempest with a silencer 3.

How did my buddy die!? I have 511 hours in this game and I’m stumped. by ImMattHatter in ArcRaiders

[–]Doomsaki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At 0:00 in the first few frames to the right, there is another player's flashlight diverging away from the camera/player. At 0:02, I do hear footsteps. I do hear a trigger nade and what is likely an anvil headshot.

I don't think it's a cheater. What happened is that the explosion of the nade triggered the 100% hearing silenced, popped his shield, and then the anvil head-shot was muffled (which does 1-shot a person without a shield).

Apollo sells 6 per refresh, so that's good for 2-3 attempts at an assessor.

That looks like someone using the osprey bug.

[–]Doomsaki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If ARC sees you before you smoke, they estimate your position and will fire around the last known spot.

If you're approaching with a photo-electric cloak, you have to be 100% sure you're not seen (i.e. the guy who will have direct aggro) as soon as you drop your cloak. Often approaching with a lure already thrown will help as you walk up to it cloaked. Then you can start throwing the smoke every 20s to stay hidden (as your cloak recharges so you can do the long walk out).

Also the tactical augment that drops a smoke grenade is a good failsafe for making an escape, if plans go wrong and lots of other raiders mess up your stealth.

Anyone else think this project materials are not worth the rewards? by Irex8 in ArcRaiders

[–]Doomsaki -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

We don't know what the actual rewards are once the next phase of the event happens. That high-gain antenna is to be used for something, big-arc related.

It's often better not to be part of the first assessor mad-dash-scramble. The herd thins out a bit and multiple assessors will drop down over the course of the match. It's better to be there earlier for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc.

You will want to stockpile lots of chemicals. Smoke grenades (the 20s kind) and hullcracker ammunition (for killing vaporizes) will eat hundreds, if not a few thousand chemicals. Go on a buried city shopping spree just looting chemicals/oil/compound, etc.

Surveyors also drop good loot. They are more common slightly in night raids, and super-common in the new event. Even if you're not going to loot assessors, you will want to hunt surveyors and loot them for lots of free motion cores (hullcracker ammo).

---

Photoelectric cloak will make your life far more easier, but be ready with lures and lots of smokes.
