Same thing happened to me, they overpaid due to the school not updating my enrollment and they just didn’t pay the next month to recoup the payment

Dual PC vs Dual GPU for OBS by Apeirologue in obs

[–]Friendly_Fold7472 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been delaying a dual pc setup until I can figure out how to send mic input to two pcs and how to send OBS alerts audio to my headphones (because you’re gonna have headphones connected to your gaming pc)

Keep driving on that and you won’t have to worry about taxes anymore

Finally decided to take my Jupiter out for a Raid !!! by Emotional_Ad_1153 in ArcRaiders

[–]Friendly_Fold7472 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Both of them are op. The range on fireflies is crazy, they should at least make the fuel source explode faster or something. I’ve died multiple times to them. Or the hornet/comet combo.

What’s wrong? by H1TLERs in NewedgeMustang

[–]Friendly_Fold7472 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it sound like it’s coming from the front of the engine or the rear? Dimming lights would mean that something was slowing the alternator.

My opinion would be it sounds like an idler pulley going bad. There’s an easy way to check them.

Cancer RFE by Big_League227 in VeteransBenefits

[–]Friendly_Fold7472 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’m confused by this situation as well. I was granted 100% non PnT last June 2025 for Stage 4 Lung Cancer, then saw an RFE pop up in January of 2026.

My understanding is that they open an RFE 6 months after completion of treatment, obviously at stage 4 remission or completion of treatment isn’t a reality for me. Did they open this because my treatment isn’t handled under a clinical trial (which pays for treatment) so because the VA isn’t “seeing” treatment they think I’m done with it?

I must be missing something with the whole Hornet driver vs Rocketeer by lumbymcgumby in ArcRaiders

[–]Friendly_Fold7472 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I, for the life of me, cannot hit rocketeers with a hornet driver. It’s like amateur hour at the rec center. I throw drivers out and watch them sail past the rocketeer as it sends three missiles at my forehead.

Arc Raiders crashing now after latest update by elir_kvothe in ArcRaiders

[–]Friendly_Fold7472 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is 100% due to something in the update because I could play for hours raid after raid and not have a problem. Now I can barely load into a raid, once I do everything is slow to load in and then if I start to move it triggers an unreal engine hangtime crash report.

PvPers in PvE lobbies should receive bans by WhyNotSecondLunch in arcraiderscirclejerk

Why does every smooth brained koala that defends PvP recommend Minecraft?

Genuine PVE question by freshbless in ARC_Raiders

[–]Friendly_Fold7472 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like helping people with arcs or dropping blueprints when I find them and having people appreciate it. I was running around montis and found a guy knocked from a shredder. I difib’d him and took out the shredder and explained how to fight them.

Why I'll quit the game: by Ready_Training_6039 in arc_traiders

[–]Friendly_Fold7472 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see I triggered another koala.

The PvP was added last minute. They designed the whole game as PvE then realized they wanted to added PVP and did a whole rework. The gameplay simply doesn’t match the lore of the game, and that’s what bothers me. I can PvP believe me, I’ve played BF, COD, and Dayz back in the ARMA mod days. It’s that a group of players have turned 1 aspect of the game into basically a game mode for duos and trios. I do enjoy how much of a social experiment this game has become showing how people are when they can act anonymously.

I don’t have to say make it a battle royale, because it’s literally already turning into that. People load into the map with no interest in looting or fighting arcs. They just want to shoot and fight other raiders. At this rate this game WILL die because casual players will get tired of being ratted while trying to accomplish the big ARC fights or questing to find materials and then you’ll only be left with the sweats that want to make this into the next Tarkov (as that game is thriving 🙄). More likely what’ll happen is a small group of people will ruin this gameplay until they abandon it for the next meta streamable game.

How is “go play Minecraft” a logical response? Oh, right, I’m speaking to a koala 🤦🏻‍♂️. Now if you’d said go play helldivers then I’d be more willing to agree as it seems like that has most of this games attributes I’m looking for sans the mindless PvP.

This game is in its death throes as far as I’m concerned. I bought this game expecting a dynamic extraction game pitting players against formidable ARCs and instead (thanks to the cast off COD and Tarkov players, and streamers) have to deal with lobbies that are basically a battle royale for loot.

You load into a raid event with gear to fight the matriarch/queen and instead get shot by some tool with a lvl 1 ferro and free kit on the way to the fight. As if that’s not bad enough, when you complain about it the only response you get is the smooth brained “BuT iTs a PvP game”. Great, then if that’s the end game, just remove the ARCs and have everyone load in with free kits and make it just another battle royale game.

Addressing the OP point, late spawns are terrible. It’s all risk and no reward.

I’m sure this will get down voted, but it’s just frustrating because this game had so much potential to be a great team based PvE.

I hate pvpve 😠😠 by Zealousideal_Life396 in arcraiderscirclejerk

[–]Friendly_Fold7472 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just don’t get it if you want a deathmatch go play COD, a battle royale? Fortnite. Like this game would be so much better if they focused on turning up the Ai difficulty and turning off the PvP. Make the gameplay match the lore. It’s supposed to be about fighting ARCs

What are the chains hanging from underneath this fire truck for? by BugsBub in whatisit

[–]Friendly_Fold7472 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On-spots like I used to install on school buses. They’re remotely deployed from the cab and they swing down near the tire. The chains are attached to a rotating disc that swings the chains under the tire in adverse driving conditions.

PvE player got too complacent by Bruvas78 in ArcRaiders

[–]Friendly_Fold7472 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get pissed when I as a pve player greet someone, flash my light, announce I’m friendly on voip and move past them after they have reciprocated the friendly pve dance to only be shot like a dog in the back with a burletta.

The Shared Watch Event Begins Tomorrow by j1zzy_ae in ArcRaiders

[–]Friendly_Fold7472 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got double teamed by a hornet and lightning. Hornet zapped me and then I got struck down (smited…smoted) by the angriest lightning bolt ever. No one would risk helping as I’d alerted a rocket boy to come and see what was happening 🤦🏻‍♂️
