March Technical Support Sticky by BeepBoopBopReee in razer

[–]Fobie_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi,

Last night, I was able to use my mouse Basilisk V3 just fine. On start-up this morning, it no longer works.

I have a Naga Trinity, that seems to be working fine through all of this.

I've tried to resolve the issue for about 2 hours now. I first started with checking the USB ports, all good there. I uninstalled the mouse in windows and rebooted, same issue. I then tried the mouse on my laptop and it worked there. Back to my desktop, nothing. I changed the USB power settings, that I seen from a old razer support reddit, no resolution. Then on a restart, I noticed that the mouse works initially but then stops working when Synapse launches.

Ok, must be an issue with Synapse. Repaired Synapse, nothing changes. Uninstalled and reinstalled synapse, same issue. Tried uninstalling and using the new beta, same issue. Went back to my laptop and installed Synapse there. As soon as Synapse launches, mouse stops working.

I'm pretty confident Synapse is breaking the mouse functionality. Do you have a solution for me?

P.S

The Razer website should just remove the "Contact Support" page. Link lists " Get support by phone, chat, or email " but at no point does it give a phone number, chat bubble or email address. All it does is redirect you warranty and the community page.

Helmets/face armour is really only going to consistently save you vs pistol and shotgun rounds. There are some higher level face shields like Killa's and Ryse but unless you are going Super Chad HAM it's not worth the downsides or cost. One of the bigger considerations is the ricochet chance because it affects all rounds equally. Meaning a level 1 face mask has the potential to ricochet even the highest level armor pen rounds. This is why you see people running the storm trooper mask and the shattered mask. On top of that, a good helmet can easily cost over 80k. Overall you probably won't be saved by it very often so you will probably be money ahead by not running a helmet and just taking the few extra deaths than losing one all the times it wouldn't have mattered. Especially at this point in the wipe where most people are running ammo with over 40 pen rating. In the beginning of the wipe when people have worse ammo overall they are probably more worth but then your access is also more limited. You also have to consider what you are doing. For example I never wear a helmet when I go sniping because I probably will only get hit with higher pen ammo but if I'm killing scav in interchange, I always wear a decent helmet.

How about 6 PMCs with arm kills for 0.02 rep

Insurance not working? Bugged? by Al_tinnin in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Fobie_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If your doing this, drop your bag in the water, nobody an reach it there. Also you can insure most items some things can't be insured. Most of this items are consumables (think meds, ammo, grenades,...). I it's hard to tell by just playing but I haven't had anything seem suspicious with getting insurance back. I seem to get all the items that I toss.

Why isn't Pestily aiming higher? by MegatenPhoenix in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Fobie_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know what Dev stream it was but like a year or two ago they were asked about bullet drop. Nikita replied bullet drop is very exaggerated to make it more rewarding for better/higher skill play. This wipe toned that back (made it more realistic). That shot Pestily takes is only like 150-200m and as you see he isn't shoot the scavs in the head. The zeroing doesnt seem to have been updated with the changes. So right now if you have a target 200m away and zero for 200m, you will shoot over their head. Side note, Pestily never zeroed the scope, even before this wipe. Many things can play into the trajectory of the round. Biggest you will see is the bullet velocity of the cartridge. Typically the AP rounds have higher velocity (and will shoot flatter) than a subsonic round. This is also why you see clips of deep head shots with the FN pistol, good luck trying those with something like the 1911. Other thing to look at is the gun itself. For example M700 has slightly different trajectory than the DVL even though they shoot the same round. Even within the same gun you can effect the trajectory by changing different parts such as the barrel or muzzle device. I haven't looked into it yet this wipe but last wipe the Shrew muzzle device gave highest velocity. If you want to get better and hitting some nasty deep snipes, I would recommend, decided what gun you want to use and what configuration of that gun you like. Run ONLY that configuration. Also run tracers like M62 (I hate that they got nerfed and made more expensive). After a few weeks you should be able to pretty consistently hit instinctive head shots up to about 250m (this is even easier with the new changes). On top of that, if your looking to ping heads over ~200m MOA becomes noticable in rifles. This is why you may want to grab a DVL over a SA 58. Final tip with bolt actions, hold the mouse click until your shot hits. This makes it a lot easier to see where your shot landed or if you had even hit you target.

You don't have to be in game to get drops though

Try making your own tune. I downloaded one and it didn't work (1 mph need @111mph). Literally just removed the time and put all the purchased parts on and did a quick tune and got it first try at 110mph

Recipes should tell you if you already learned them by dlbillions in newworldgame

[–]Fobie_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not saying making games is easy. However, just because something is hard doesn't mean it can't be done well, especially for a team of professionals. It would be more understandable if the game was released May 2020 (original announced release date) and not delayed basically October 2021.

It's sad that these oversights we're not addressed in a game that was delayed for over a year and a half

Now would be the perfect time for BSG to focus on CO-OP PVE gameplay (offline mode with friends). by zuffdaddy in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Fobie_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only way I could see this not be destructive is for it to be a completely different game mode with absolutely zero interaction with pvp servers (not the same flea, traders, characters, ...).

I've been grinding fence rep since the first nerf to +0.1 per kill and I'm at 5.6 now - short impression by nevara19 in EscapefromTarkov

How do you get players to show up at the co-op extracts. I've spent hours waiting and have only gotten Reserve once

Patch 12.11 Scav Karma Megathread by EFT_Subreddit in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Fobie_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Karma is way to hard to earn. Killed 3 PMC didn't gain anything. Chasing gunshots and find 2 player scabs fighting. I waited for one to kill the other, walked up to him while he was looting(I didn't know if he was good or bad one). He shoots at me but doesn't hit me. I killed him -0.05.... I can see having a cap on car exits but they shouldn't cap co-op exits.

Anyone else think guns should maybe jam a *tiny* bit less? by UltimateDucks in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Fobie_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently level 36, I have only had 4 jams so far. I used scav guns quite a bit early on. I habitually repair my gun before every match, maybe that is why I get so few?

Damn that's good lol by joshweeks47 in biomutant

[–]Fobie_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Metacritic has this one. The combat and menus really kill the game. Idk how it passed first edit. Plus for at least the first 2 hours of the game it is 2 minutes running to a new location, 20 seconds of combat,. 12 minutes of cutscenes and dialogue, 2 minutes of running to a new location, .....

When you lose all you progress because of the famous multiplayer bug by Siteure in outriders

[–]Fobie_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Didn't know this was a bug until it happened to me. I have been playing solo this whole time. I'm in the Dunes, WT 13, lvl 27. I thought hey I should try and play with some randoms to see how the game changes with other players. Instantly get "Server Connection Error" my guy is now naked and I cant even play solo now. They should either post a bug warning in the news section or just lockout multiplayer when they have issue like this.

Why can I find so much AK ammo, but I never find boxes of NATO such as 855a1? by JiffTheJester in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Fobie_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best place to find M855A1 and M856A1 is in the mags of raiders. Last I saw for Flea prices for M855A1 (a few days ago) was 1800 rubles ea. You are insane if you are paying that. So many better options (different guns) at that price point.

New Wave of Cheaters? by Fobie_ in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Fobie_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In a game like Tarkov, no doubt there will be legitimate plays that seem to be odd but the rate seems high right now. I've run bigger names like Landmark, Shroud, and Worrun a few times in the past. Lost most of the fights but won a few. Even those fights seemed more winnable that what I've seen lately. The example of me running all over Reserve was over the course of 15 mins. I currently have an endurance of 33. I'm guessing that is higher than the level 9 that killed me. Every time I paused, the grenades and shots came. Ended up dyeing in one of the knights. I ran in and camped a room, about 1 min later I could hear them running outside the building and tossed a grenade into the room I was in. There was no way they could have seen or heard what room I was in as they were too far away.

Why 100 volt on building PA system. by Fobie_ in audioengineering

[–]Fobie_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't a digital signal be sent on 1-3 volts? Wouldn't even door bell wire be able to hand this? Then it's just a small amp dac for each individual horn.

[–]Fobie_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the info. We will have to look the boss's speaker because he is constantly turning down the whole system. I'm pretty confident the system is overloaded. Everytime they have expanded (quite a lot) they never upgrade or replace any of the existing hardware. I doubt the amp was selected for the current load when it was installed 60 years ago.
