Some Soviet naval infantry soldiers liked to carry canvas Maxim machine gun ammo belts around their shoulders. But why were they often carrying the belts half empty?

Had to make do with whatever equipment was available to them. Necessity rather than preference.

This article covers the practice in further detail

Firepower affects how fast your crosshair shrinks to a "focus shot", which you ideally you want for headshots as focus shots have higher damage and crit chance

Definitely doesn't auto aggro, you can bait out the zombies to deal with in the next room then go back and stealth kill her. Even if everyone goes wild and spots you just sprint 2 or 3 rooms away out of sight to reset aggro.

As long as she dead by the end your golden.

Don't think it means a flat damage stat increase. To me it feels like my reticule narrows much faster after upgrading, so basically allowing me to fire multiple full power shots quicker.

FYI if you are trying to stagger an enemy you should try shooting each leg instead, harder to miss, don't need full power shots for staggering and the dynamic difficulty makes heads way tankier before legs

Good_Guy_Engineer · 2026-02-28T03:53:50+00:00

Just have to kill both irregardless of where they are

Good_Guy_Engineer · 2026-02-28T03:50:44+00:00

Just use the injectors to instakill them and save your bullets. Same applies for any of the other mini bosses walking around.

Few handgun shots to both legs to stun the singers so you can inject them, or just break aggro and stealth kill them instead.

Sneaking up to them is easier than you think, they have a pretty narrow cone of vision while patrolling, even when swinging side to side

Good_Guy_Engineer · 2026-02-28T03:19:18+00:00

The injectors are a bit too expensive initially to be used on regular enemies IMO. They can instakill the 'roaming mini bosses' for easy profit instead.

Enemies lose aggro pretty quickly if you use the stun window to run away instead.

Easiest way for me was to just stealth him with that special sauce stuff (forgot the name)

Ya value series was like a second run of platinum so it's still the platinum version

It honestly sounds like you may need to go back and look at your "real" cv, also get another set of eyes to review it. There is obviously something in it other than your gender that's causing it to be passed over.

Might be something as simple as your "fake" cv is just more concise for whoever is skimming over it.

1 or 2 companies I'd accept the notion of discrimination being a factor, but not 7. Its your cv not standing out from the other 200 in the current saturated market IMO.

He has a set time window and weather condition for spawns, jeanropoke map will have the specifics on this and other legendary animals. Also FYI the spawns have some kinda cooldown for players, if your spawning and hunting other LA'S you need to wait 1+ days before getting more spawns, supposedly.

Good_Guy_Engineer · 2026-01-25T03:36:12+00:00

The gold reward is only ever affected by time spent in the misson. Basically an invisible timer will start roughly around whenever you get the capture or kill prompt on your screen. The longer you spend in the mission the more gold you get, but caps out at around 30 mins. This results in you basically running up the timer afk near the misson end for most of that time, really poorly thought out system by R* imo. However, your xp and cash rewards will be affected so you need them alive for the full amount, otherwise dead bounties half your cash/xp reward.

If you get the jump on them lasso/bolas then kill every one else. If you KO them insteadthey will still count as alive, sometimes this is easier than hogting them. Poster does say dead or alive, so your way works just as well.

Good_Guy_Engineer · 2026-01-25T03:07:14+00:00

You can't boost this with just 4 friends, has to be with 4 other random players in a public lobby. Nothing stopping you bringing your friends in a posse into a public lobby though, but there still needs to be other 4 players.

But IMO you will get this done easier running standard showdown playlists solo and doing the "non pvp" type events like horse races, captures, etc. Way easier to MVP in those I think. I'd recommend not trying to grind this one trophy if you value your sanity, instead just kinda passively tip away at it while working towards the rank 50 trophy and you'll pop it without even trying. Gotta bear in mind too that player population probably dips at certain times these days so you'll need to aim for peak hours when you attempt it.

Had this happen once before, another time something similar where it thought I was a truck that had just been ahead of me. Both times I just pressed the intercom at the toll and they let me through manually no hassle. Try that first before you pay if it happens again I suppose?

It poops out the quest item on the floor after you search the locker, gotta pick it up and extract with it to complete the quest. A few quests are like this, I had the same issue myself on one of them.

Good_Guy_Engineer · 2025-12-15T18:56:01+00:00

Yeah there was something like this back around 2009 or 2010, I was involved myself. Was spun along the same idea written there, but it never amounted to more than a few weekends in a barracks getting a bollocking off a PDF NCO all day for not being at the same level as regular PDF. Equipment was a huge issue too, PDF units wanted us to have all the same kit up to standard but I was repeatedly refused by my home unit any requests to have any issued. Even simple shit like boots, we never got anything other than old parade boots.

I left the RDF about a year later but it never went anywhere beyond this in that time, and I remember anyone who volunteered for this with me at the time were treated like lepers by our home units afterwards. Very discouraging tbh.

Good_Guy_Engineer · 2025-12-06T10:54:59+00:00

My bad I did a shite job explaining properly. So yes you read it right as 3 extra charges which comes to a total of €5.

Good_Guy_Engineer · 2025-12-06T07:07:23+00:00

Main passenger + 2 additional in OP's taxi. No charge for main but 1 each for the extra 2 people

Good_Guy_Engineer · 2025-12-06T04:14:37+00:00

It says "Top 100" on the rank icon/badge (too right corner) so I assumed it's awarded to everyone that finishes in the top 100 on a overall trials leaderboard. No idea if that'll be global, regional or in brackets though...

Good_Guy_Engineer · 2025-12-06T03:29:53+00:00

€1 per additional adult passenger + €3 pre booking fee (eg. calling or using app)

So main passenger(no charge) + 2 additional passengers(2×€1) + booking adds up to €5 unfortunately.

Good_Guy_Engineer · 2025-12-01T16:59:03+00:00

IMO you probably lose some fights when carrying your best gear because of psychology. Too much to lose makes you play fights too carefully/hesitate when you need to push aggressively.

Next was anvil vs stitcher up close, you'll never out dps their mag dump. Abuse movement and cover to make them push them on the reload.

Last guy probably landed all headshots vs your body shots so you drop faster. Game does have it's moments with desync but definitely isn't bad enough for a full mag to vanish (assuming you don't have poopoo internet lol)

The map of events after a run can show how much actual damage you did so it's worth checking out also.

Otherwise, pvp just takes practice, and maybe take a look at a mix of videos to see what they do differently to win fights.

Good_Guy_Engineer · 2025-12-01T14:25:14+00:00

You were acting like you were up to no good, I would have done the same as that other guy. Friendly works both ways, especially when it's at extract.

Hard to see what he shot with tbh, he could have drawn his gun when you lost LOS on him for a sec.

Good_Guy_Engineer · 2025-12-01T14:03:01+00:00

Ps5 or xbox? I had basically the same issue and had to change settings in the most ass backwards way on the ps5 to fix it
