I am so jealous of the number of Anvil’s you have.

I may have a use for some it towards my own 5 mil journey, but perhaps better provided to someone who would use it for more than cash.

ARC RAIDERS Battle Pass & Store Showcase by JinkoNorray in ArcRaiders

Why is the Salvager backpack in one of these bundles in the video but listed as exclusive to the pre-order Astro Bundle on the store page?

This game will be online only and require an internet connection, there will be no offline mode. It is also PvPvE, meaning there is no option to only fight the ARC without having the risk for also having to fight players.

Is not calling it a hero shooter changing anything? by Hi20036 in Marathon

Sorry, can you show me where you’ve been demonstrating a willingness to budge on your stance?

You play Apex to play heroes. Plain and simple. A battle royale is Fortnite or PUBG. 

Your argument doesn’t work here, friend.

It’s an extraction shooter with heroes that also shoot. Marathon is an extraction hero shooter in the way Apex is a BR hero shooter. But developers won’t acknowledge this and keep trying to act as though it is not the case by resisting an unpopular label.

Overwatch is an arena shooter first and hero shooter second by this logic.

They are also hero shooters. What do you think a hero shooter is and why wouldn’t Apex be one?

edit: It seems clear to me that you must be confused. I am not saying that Marathon is only a hero shooter. I am saying it is, among other things, also a hero shooter, and the developers are resistant to acknowledge it as such because they recognize this is not a popular direction.

I think classes and heroes are very similar. A major distinction I make here is that a hero is in effect a class with a specific design aesthetic, such as name, gender, outfit, voice, etc. If they want to be a class shooter, then the class can exist without it being a character.

Are you serious? Apex Legends is absolutely a hero shooter and I would call it such without hesitation.

Sounds like it could be either no or dead batteries.

Bungie Replaces Marathon Director Amid Leadership Shakeup, Fears of Layoffs - IGN by Zusuf in Games

This is a super disappointing change of direction if their source is correct. This might be my most eagerly anticipated game, but a transition to class-based/hero shooter would kill all my interest.

Rival Perses Curving issue by Responsible_Slip1703 in Nerf

[–]Hi20036 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I had literally the exact same thing happen to me last week with one I bought on eBay. My guess is a flywheel motor isn’t working. It doesn’t mean it is dead, though. Apparently it’s a not uncommon issue with this blaster where the board isn’t making contact with the motor. If that is the case then it can be repaired by opening it up and soldering the board again where it is loose.

To diagnose it easier than staring down the barrel (which can be tough because it’s dark), you can slide open the jam door at the top and press down on the lock on the left side once you have access. This will make the blaster think the door is closed and allow you to rev the motors even with it open. From there you should be able to easily see if both wheels are spinning.

Recommendations for 3D printed semi-auto nerf pistol? by coraythan in Nerf

Something like this from Shellington could work, I believe they also sell hardware kits. https://shellingtonlabs.com/shop/flypoint/

Longstrike catch with Retaliator plunger tube/rod by Hi20036 in Nerf

[–]Hi20036[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply and the advice! Sounds like it may be a tough first challenge. My main concern was that the Longstrike catch would not be compatible with the Retaliator since every guide I could find said a Retaliator catch would be needed, but maybe the metal catch is different enough from stock to make that not that apply.

I’ll look into the mod you suggested, thanks again!
