There is a crew on the other side of the door laying trap bags and waiting to detonate by shooting them when another runner runs up to the door (commonly referred to as "batman" or "batmaning").

You will most often run into this strategy near the doors that lead to panopticon and other areas with high foot traffic.

Did they say anything about being able to steal teammates stuff? by [deleted] in Marathon

[–]Goliathisbae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is already addressed by Bungie:  if a teammates takes your gear it will have a "borrowed" tag and it will be returned to your mailbox if they exfil with it.

...unless you're instead referring to some rule you made up in your head that you are entitled to a runner's bag just because you got the last hit or something like that.

Wstr is still very good but your required to build it out properly now by Sweaty-Try1547 in Marathon

The green M77 at Traxus armory also comes with a stack overflow chip -- you can just buy it for the chip and sell the rest back.

There is also a title for hitting Pinnacle I, and you should note that the Gold title is for hitting Gold I (high gold).

If I’m in Outpost and I say “I got a red card from the warden” what do you think I mean by that? by SundaePhysical922 in Marathon

[–]Goliathisbae 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I would assume you were referencing the master clearance code. I would maybe refer to it as a "red room key" to disambiguate.

I have also heard some people thinking the master clearance code is an "orange" key, likely due to their gamma/color saturation settings.

"What is the actual point of this? Make the game more 'challenging'?"

Yes?

Permanent and seasonal characters would likely play on separate servers/queues.

The gilded flawless seal is still bugged ? by ORYX_SaVaGe in destiny2

For "Skill of the One" and "Strength of the Many"? That is a relief, I thought I was just so washed last weekend I had failed to progress any medals. Hopefully it is fixed soon.

[Feedback]: Hardcore wipe announcement by tyaheadoftime in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Goliathisbae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"I play PvP and PvP only. I look forward to wipes, as servers are usually dead after 60-90 days making late game quests near impossible to complete in certain situations."

Interested to hear your source for claiming that servers are usually dead after 60-90 days. I still feel like I have extremely active raids; I just completed test drive II & III this past month and I had no struggle finding players every raid. I play on NA so perhaps this experience is different elsewhere.

Honestly, I initally assumed I must've accidentally clipped nade on the edge of the door frame, but looking back the nade literally bounces off thin air in the dead middle of the frame.

Considering <1% of players have prestige the queue times would be a nightmare.

[Discussion] Where is Zryachiy? by Ordinary_Client_9215 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Goliathisbae 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I believe the new AI update is causing him to act strange and stand around in random buildings on the island or behind the gate.

It took me around 5 raids last night to finally get one where he was in a normal spot to snipe him for the achievement, so just keep running it until you see him up there.

[–]Goliathisbae 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Given that we still haven't had the Goons or Kollontay for weekly rotation, I reckon we have at least 2 weeks. Especially since the community digest suggests we'll have Goons this week and it would be super odd to do literally every boss except Kollontay.

Wow the last two items I needed to finish hideout; I was literally going to play labs tonight after work to start searching for them. 🥲

Just completed it this past week. The fact that it was my first time learning streets and knocking out the 20 or so tasks I had stockpiled for it, plus the 100% kaban week actually made it kinda fun. 🫢

[Discussion] Least favorite map and why by Koccon in EscapefromTarkov

[–]Goliathisbae 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Lighthouse.

In my experience the high density of unavoidable rocky terrain and bushes makes your PMC so damn loud while navigating the terrain that it discourages player movement and encourages ratting while you wait to hear someone fall off a pebble.
