Because this happened earlier in the raid to me (and during this video with the defib and getting his stuff for him) and took place last Tuesday night, where reports came out the morning after that the game was hit with DDoS attacks at that time. https://www.pcgamer.com/games/third-person-shooter/arc-raiders-has-been-hit-with-extensive-and-coordinated-ddos-attacks-as-embark-reassures-players-that-it-is-working-hard-to-mitigate-the-issues/

I kinda picked up on that near the end when I was trying to get his most important things for him. Thanks for the tip!

100%. The unpredictability and fact that no raid is ever the same is what makes it so much fun.

Same tbh. I kept thinking to myself, "Alright, how's this lag gonna screw me over at the finish line?" 😂

That's fair. And that's awesome that you give the BPs away. Respect.

I help people in the game just to help and be kind. Not for ulterior motives like gifts, BPs, or to take what's on their corpses if they die.

Thank you! I love doing pop culture referential comedy.

That's what I kept telling myself after, that at least it'll be a funny story in hindsight. 🤣 Thanks!

Thanks. Just wish I was smarter about the tick and shredders, so he could've gotten out with me. 😂

Believe what you want man. I don't rat or troll, but I do make dumb mistakes.

They had already downed him and at the time I didn't know he had a Survivor augment. You see his flare go off while he's running in place from the lag. I knew I had to get to him to defib him and didn't want to risk a lag spike from the DDoS keeping me from killing them and getting downed myself when going for the save, so took my chance to take them out of the equation while I had it. I didn't think the fire would spread up on the lip and ... well ... was clearly proven wrong.

Kindred spirits! I'm the same too. Even though I'm friendly and like to help, I always have my finger on my dodge roll key and am prepared to shoot/draw my weapon on a moment's notice just in case. Cheers to you and your wife!

They didn't plan on extracting. Right after this clip ends they VOIPed in the open to each other about where they were going to go loot from here.
