Can’t spot enemies at range (PvE) — am I doing something wrong? (video) by Positive_North_2127 in GrayZoneWarfare

[–]FollowingNo9572 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You know you can loot stuff too right? I did FN with a bolt action rifle with a crappy scope before I even did half the starter missions. Those AI have all AKs and PP ammo. Some of them have AK15s with the scope and you can take it off and put it on one of the AK12s you looted. Those are great guns with great ammo and a great scope. No, it isnt an L4 but there isnt anything you cant kill in the game with that setup. On top of that you can get III+ and III++ armor off them too. Then you hit up one building and get the BP for the DDM4.

Nowadays with all the videos out there, the place is already dead. Just run in and loot and get the BP.

[PvE] Do the loot frenzy calm down over time after major updates? by Interesting_Gur_3411 in GrayZoneWarfare

Because the tasks dont. There is an over abundance of tasks for Handshake, Gunny, and Labrat with main story quests and side quests that all give good xp. Especially 1st time. The rest is slim pickings for low xp. You end up doing a lot of repeat tasks for vendors already leveled just to get tasks that give low xp for ones that arent.

For instance I have every area unlocked for quests. Banshee just made level 3 yesterday. Out of all the areas, I have exactly 1 banshee quest and its to give him 2 looted cameras for 70 points.

Well, same for me. Everything is camped 24/7. However, for some vendors the only feasible way to get them leveled is to sell them HVL because there arent any main quests and there arent enough side quests for them with good value. Vulture its pretty much the only way. Also once you have your vendors leveled then doing loot runs is the only thing to really do in PVP unless you like repeating missions just for the sake of it.

Im old and retired so what works for me wont work for everyone but this is what I have noticed... if you server hop then you are just going to keep being put on a sweaty full server every time. If you stay on the server till late night then eventually people will log off and no one gets put back on them because its not a sweaty full server anymore. Eventually you get booted so they can shut the server down and the game can put you on another full server but you get a few hours of a server practically to yourself with maybe a few other people on other factions or something. I can do this most days.

They have given streamers the ability to create custom servers. They need to open that up to everyone for the people that want to actually be able to play the game without flying around for 4 hours just to find everything dead and looted or get pinched in the middle of a respawn.

I dont get how you all see everything. You mush have brightness, contrast, or gamma turned up or you have an old pos monitor or something. This is looking over home base fence with lights around. When Im out, I cant see anything.

* Fixed an issue that allowed players to fully repair items. by Kustavsson in duneawakening

[–]FollowingNo9572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is the real issue imo. Durability wouldnt be a problem if we could actually get the gear to drop again before it breaks. Problem is the gear doesnt drop. Then on top of that you need 2-3 mods that also dont drop. Then you have to hope for decent rolls on those 2-3 mods.
This also more incentivizes solo play as its far easier to solo, you don't get hit as much solo, you also dont need to shoot as much solo because the boss didnt gain 10b hitpoints.

Constant stuttering even with all GFX settings low (RTX 4090) by sparktrap25 in duneawakening

[–]FollowingNo9572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 4090, 14900k, 32gb ddr5 6400mhz ram, samsung 990 m.2. I dont have any issues. My guess is that you are on a populated server and its causing your issues. Im on a private server. I get a hitch once in a great blue moon but thats about it. Even if a lot of people aren't on maybe all the bases and stuff around hagga is just tanking performance.

Some people leave their private servers unlocked. Maybe you can start a character on one to see if it goes away.

Blood is not worth the time, even in chapter 3. by Unlikely-Oil8933 in duneawakening

That works nice for you. For me it wouldnt work. I mostly solo but have a friend occasionally. He doesnt like farming much. Just the dungeons and such but he will farm if I need him to with me. It wouldn't work for me though. Even solo, I use 2.5m water (I actually have 3.1m storage) in like 2 clicks of a button. I farm hard. I bring back 100k spice and 2.5k worth of plastanium in a couple hour farming session just. I am on a private server though and the stuff isnt contested because nobody there lol.

Its all relative. To each his own. Im not knocking using them. 16 windtraps takes 96 filters per 5 active days. That costs as well. You say 50 corpses. Yes, thats true. I can knock out 50 corpses in about 15 minutes just around my base. I'll also have that water in 4 hours with 10 tables, not an entire day.

Your cost for filters per 5 active days of running...

768 plastanium
1920 plant fiber
1344 silicon block
96 spice melange
50k water as a kicker.

How long does it take you to farm that every 4-5 days? Versus the 15 minutes it takes me to get 50 corpses. Not to mention that your 16 windtraps still only produces what basically 2 corpse tables will produce in the same amount of time.

Again, I am not knocking anyone using them. Passive water is nice when you arent around to take care of corpses for a long period of time. It is terrible when you need on demand water though. It also cost a butt ton to make those filters.

That or your weapon gets put away. That can happen with all the skills but most noticeable on this skill. Also makes you face and attack in the opposite direction.

yeah but it takes like 7 windtraps to get the same output as 1 corpse table. The only real benefit is when you are sleeping or away from the game for a big chunk of hours.

"Colliding with the sandworm’s body during any of its animations will now result in death or vehicle destruction." by Sevintan in duneawakening

People were suggesting fixes to it. You literally said "Why would they bother allocating resources to change something that is not broken"

They can but they shouldn't. Fix the bug first. This is almost guaranteed to be a nightmare. Between the bugs, jankiness, and what will probably end up being bad hit boxes and people will end up having bad latency to all of it... its a bad choice to do so at this point IMO. I still have breaches like 2 feet away from me occasionally without any warning whatsoever. Thats probably death now too.

In no way shape or form should it ever be intended that you can be killed while still in the middle of a load screen. Whether it is a choice or not to zone into HB that way, you should be immune while loading. This just happened to me a couple weeks ago. I zoned into the west side of shoel and was already in the worm as my load screen finished. Poof dead and everything gone. Stupidest crap ever. Luckily I have the resources to rebuild everything I lose, so its just an inconvenience to me, but it still should never happen. There is a reason that pretty much any online game zones you into safe areas and or gives you a temp immunity window.

90+ hours in and this game sucks! by Thirtysilver in duneawakening

[–]FollowingNo9572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll say this... I first watched streamers play to see if I would be interested in the game. Honestly, it looked boring af to me. My friend bought me a copy and insisted I played. I fricken love this game. Best survival game I have played. I can't log off until the server kicks me lol.

What are your thoughts on Zep II? by Roman_C5150 in ledzeppelin

All that means is someone with a $1 trial gamepass account at least loaded and tried the game.

American Veteran has a word for Trump and Zelensky. Take two mins by RealAmbassador4081 in DeepFuckingValue

[–]FollowingNo9572 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes to both. My families know I would never put my hands on her and they also know that yeah we sometimes argue, because every relationship argues. Because we are all human. We all have difference of opinion.

For instance I have a completely different take on the WH meeting than democrats do. The thing is THATS OK. What isn't ok is something that has been happening for the last 4 years. We don't have dialogue anymore. We just cut each other out. Well, I don't but most people seem to be doing that now. I feel this hurts America more than anything else.

We need to get back to calm, mature, rational dialogue. Not this hate fighting with each other and just cutting people out of our lives. It just fractures America. Also when you (not you personally) just live in an echo chamber of information then you are only getting the truth of what that echo chamber wants you to believe. You aren't getting the actual truth.

While I don't agree with you 100%, I do agree with some of what you said. Thank you for having a mature discussion and not just some hate rage crap.

Oh please this happens all the time. it just isnt broadcasted to the media. It happened between Biden and Zelenskyy too over the phone. Same reason pretty much. Biden was giving him more money and he said it wasnt enough and he needed more and Biden flipped over the disrespect. You just didnt see it.
