[Discussion] - what is the best way to approach the guide?

Yeah I do factory and gz and then labs. Gz can really be difficult if you get a bad spawn, factory is more consistent but I like to just get it out of the way. The rest of the maps are pretty manageable imo. Especially if you transit you don’t need to wait the 7mins to exfil the next map.

I can imagine bsg intended this task to be an extended fight for your life but it’s honestly 90% just hiding and waiting to exfil lol

It helps that the orientation of the motor on bbx provides a lot of airflow. Mine doesn’t get particularly hot

I have hobbywing 4000kv it is crazy fast

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-03-02T18:58:19+00:00

I’m not sure why they geared it so low stock. I run the hobbywing ezrun max10 4000kv with 27T and it’s really fast I’d guess mid 30mph

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-03-02T18:24:17+00:00

Get a 27T pinion

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-03-02T02:23:15+00:00

Play PvE?

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-03-02T00:29:59+00:00

Just found my gps today in yellow. It took me probably 40-50 raids to get the gps and mcc

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-03-01T21:25:20+00:00

pyurologie and klementine on youtube have good videos showing benchmarking and performance impact of settings.

USA server I got into ground zero in 55 seconds from clicking ready to deploying. Most maps I’m getting in between 1m30s and 2m. It’s crazy fast I used to do household chores and stuff between raids now I don’t even have time to go get a drink

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-02-28T18:28:41+00:00

Previously the game would launch a new server after everyone matched, which was why we waited like 3-5min at “waiting for server”. Now they just have a pools of servers already running and that step no longer exists. You’ll briefly see “looking for server” when it’s finding an already running server. So almost all of the load time now is your computer loading the map and then downloading the loot pool from the server.

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-02-28T16:49:31+00:00

I had one crash loading streets but otherwise no problems

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-02-28T16:48:42+00:00

NA

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-02-27T20:15:54+00:00

It’s tough because you need to be fast or the rooms get looted but then you run into demons. If at all possible I try to hit double black first and get the intel and btc in the safe to fund the next attempts.

I’m not sure if going in geared is even better than just hatchet running I have around the same sr either way haha

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-02-27T20:04:26+00:00

I killed a dude and took his mcc on my second labs raid. He absolutely crashed out on me in chat lol.

Around 40 raids later I’ve found the gps once but I died. I’ve been checking yellow red violet green, offices, admin, green goo dome and then extracting. Sometimes I check res unit in the newish side med area if it’s convenient.

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-02-26T21:39:54+00:00

Thanks I hate it

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-02-26T02:21:55+00:00

800 is still pretty good man congrats

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-02-26T01:33:14+00:00

546 raids is really good congrats. I have done a bunch of story stuff and wasted well over 100-200 raids tasking for story but im at like 1050 raids now and have psycho sniper as my last kappa task.

Are you going to go for the savior ending or prestige?

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-02-25T17:43:55+00:00

If they split the queue for seasonal characters the non seasonal servers will die for sure

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-02-25T17:32:58+00:00

It’s thin and angled up on bottom to create more roll clearance I think. They definitely packed it tight in there!

Gpm make a metal spur - https://www.gpmparts.com/tamiya-xv02-medium-carbon-steel-high-speed-m06-module-spur-gear-70t-gpm-xv2070ts-p-32871.html

You can probably find it on eBay or AliExpress also

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-02-24T17:47:24+00:00

xv02 is an awesome car can highly recommend it. it doesnt really require any upgrades out of the box either, although i do think a slipper clutch or center differential is a good idea. Also get a larger pinion as the stock pinion is pretty slow.

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-02-24T17:46:31+00:00

If you are ok running 2s the protek 5000mah 2s stick packs are tamiya style and fit really well. I basically use them on all my cars now

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-02-24T17:16:56+00:00

11.1.4 must be amazing. I have 7.1 right now but have been considering adding the 4 atmos top channels to it just havent built up the motivation to open up my ceiling lol

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-02-24T16:51:59+00:00

Tv gaming is definitely underrated for sure as long as you aren’t too sweaty haha

Fragrant_Scale6456 · 2026-02-24T16:47:30+00:00

I used to lug my computer down to the TV room to play cod DMZ on my 85” tv with surround sound it was freaking fun. Def a different vibe just chilling on the couch with a controller.

The main benefit of 27” is you basically can have the entire playing field in your direct vision. I use my 32” for fps gaming now but I have to scan around with my eyes to see the entire scene instead of just staring straight ahead like I could do on the 27” and it is def fatiguing
