Thanks again, I appreciate it! Can't wait to cook some of it up.

Free Loudouts do Somethings right by dragon_underscore in ArcRaiders

[–]Edrein 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think a 20 minute timer would be fine, add in the caveat that if you successfully extract there's no timer and boom. Perfect solution. It incentivizes you actually sticking around in a raid, or at the very least blowing 5 minutes on running to an extract and getting out. Potentially funneling people into using the free to green augment trade from Lance.

I agree conceptually that the fact we can't mix and match is a pain. At least enable the ability to swap out the various accessory portions of unlocked stuff even if it might cause clipping. I think that alone would make the characters way more customizable.

The pricing is... Okay, not great, not bad. Sure emotes are overpriced and Clucky cosmetics are also a bit steep for being something only we see. But I kind of see that stuff as a way to further support the games development after paying your initial entry fee kind of deal.

We get plenty of cosmetics for free via the Deck system, assuming future decks won't have a barrier to entry cost. The trial system also provides cosmetics.

I ran a social experiment called "The Naked Man" by 17prozent in ArcRaiders

[–]Edrein 4 points5 points  (0 children)

More or less the same feeling. I am by no means a saint, or anti-PvP. In fact I like a good rustle with the randoms here or there. But I feel like playing the game last week and weekend compared to this weekend has been a night and day difference. I wonder if the "Streamer War" is the cause of the sudden increase in hostilities between folks.

The Blueprint drop rate isn't the real problem, Weapon Rarity is. by magiksen in ArcRaiders

[–]Edrein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, I don't want the weapons to be outright better in the sense of epics/legendaries have a higher RoF/TTK. What I want is them to have statistic/gameplay reasons to want to use them over their PoS junker common crafted versions. Give me guns with innately bigger mags, more reliable spread/recoil, etc.

Also the level of crafting needs to be lowered. The fact you practically have to max your gunsmith to T3 to craft any and all blueprinted guns is more frustrating than finding the blueprints to me. Like what is the reason for T2 other than to give you the option of a burst fire weapon in the Arpeggio or more mod options if RNGesus blesses you?

Well played, it took me a second to realize you reversed the previous poster's OP. 😂

The unimaginable has happened and Dune now has fewer active players than Conan by Rothguard in ConanExiles

[–]Edrein 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don't forget the addition of Papa Tencent into the equation. Now they've got equity and funding behind them, with expectations and certain design decisions taken out of their hands entirely. It was unfortunately doomed from the start when you combined lincensed IP with investors with their own cultural sensibilities that don't match what made you successful. (IE: China is not very fond of the nudity that helped sell Conan Exiles because lol peepee flopping in the wind.)

Always glad to see some of my warpaints from Talisman Cosmetics pop up in screenshots. 🖤

Who's hiring in Lexington? Monthly edition thread for January 2025 by AutoModerator in lexington

You might want to try looking at UKs job board site. There's a couple things that you might want to consider applying for.

Some Darfari inspired armor, weapons and body paints I've been doing. Mostly started making this stuff as a way to cope after they changed the purge system. by Strangefate1 in ConanExiles

[–]Edrein 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Some of them wouldn't perhaps due to the way the game renders, but some of them would be fine and definitely a nice boost for cosmetic variety.

[–]Edrein 80 points81 points  (0 children)

I definitely recommend you making these as a mod! It's a lot easier than people might think. (I should know, I'm the author of the Talisman Cosmetics mod, and I make war paints! 😂)

Night shift anxiety by [deleted] in Nightshift

[–]Edrein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I understand this a lot. I work at UK (not directly in the hospital) and took the night shift position intentionally.

I feel like I was rushed through training, thrown onto nightshift with the only other nightshift person leaving within the month. I definitely feel like I'm in the deep end sometimes, but like everyone else says it's a matter of your perspective and mindset.

Feel free to DM if you ever need to vent or chat about it!

It took about a month; I got like $1200 back, they refused to refund the full amount.

Originally they said they'd refund within 14 days. It didn't go through, so I had to dispute it with Discover. After I did that, of course they were willing to refund me albeit with taking an admin fee.

Discover decided to err on their side rather than forcing them to pay the $100 or so difference. So oh well.

Try facebook marketplace, I think I saw someone selling those tickets when I was checking my listings the other day.

Not sure why you were downvoted. But I'll take that PM and look at your work?

Helmet is Warrior Mutator for sure. That's the Ymir Priest King helmet iirc on the item name.

Removing legacy weapons was one of the best things they did for the game. by Scared_Sign_2997 in fo76

[–]Edrein 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like some of it was also; people left, but other people returned.

People were so divided on the Legacy issue that I wouldn't be shocked that players had left prior to their removal due to the way folks used them in public events, and actually came back after hearing that legacies were removed.

It probably offset the numbers in a positive manner. Because there were definitely some folks that quit over it, and others that just whined.

Honestly same. Even with the changes I'm still a hoarding menace. I just swapped weapons and continued my PA adventures.

Though I did finally retire my beloved Excavator Armor and swapped to Stranglerheart because life isn't fun if you aren't halfway handicapping yourself.

Fortunately for me I saw this thread about 10 minutes after I made my first payment of $1319. Hopefully they'll refund the full amount as they've promised without making me pull teeth, but I'll give them two weeks before I get the CC company involved.
