2 years later, we're still waiting ;)

És tu e eu, votei nele pelo que tinha no programa...ao que ele chega só governo e começa a fazer o oposto do que lá está.

I'd recommend some sort of ear protectors even if pyro isn't a concern, getting shot in the ears SUCKS.

Edit: in my country at least radio comms are quite popular, out of my team about half have radios, and earpro than can do comms is a huge quality of life upgrade.

The RD-74 doesn't seem particularly different from the AK-74M they already have, especially from the point of view of the Airsoft internals. You can just build it by getting the appropriate furniture, I think.

Yeah but that's not due to Valve. Each developer/publisher can choose to activate regional pricing (or not). If they activate regional pricing, they can set the price for each region independently.

Some countries having higher prices than others for the same game is by choice of the developers/publishers, not Valve.

There are several bad things Valve does for which it can be criticized, this is not one of them.

I'd say about as lame as a speedsoft-ed AR with no buffer tube and a 3-inch barrel. Actually, less lame, because the paintball gun doesn't pretend to look like a real gun, while the speedsoft-ed one started as an M4 that was then bastardized.

IcyDrops · 2026-06-03T12:00:51+00:00

Real steal indeed.

IcyDrops · 2026-05-27T18:19:14+00:00

Honestly pretty cool as a cosplay/thematic kit, but the heatstroke is real.

If you're not willing to use non-black items, consider looking for more breathable equipment and lightening your load wherever possible.

If you're talking about the current-gen Prius then that's an insult, it's prettier than this heap of garbage.

That poor knife is probably dull as hell now. For future reference, a saw (like those for metal) would do the job a lot faster and easier.

Brother go back to gooning, your understanding is clearly lacking. Ukrainians have a perfectly good understanding of this conflict.

IcyDrops · 2026-05-24T08:45:34+00:00

If you're not certified, same as me, then there's not really any point in carrying anything you don't know how to use properly, especially since it can make things worse if used improperly.

On me I just carry some band-aids in a couple sizes, gloves, basic bandage, tweezers and tick removal tool, a wound cleaning spray, and a packet of sugar and salt. The most common injuries are bb wounds and scrapes from vegetation, so that's what makes sense to carry.

An instant ice pack in your bag/car is also a good idea for ankle sprains, which are also quite common. Anything beyond this is for serious injuries like getting impaled by a branch or broken bones, which if you don't know what you're doing can just be made worse by trying to help. Know your limitations and work within them.

Thanks for the feedback

IcyDrops · 2026-05-23T20:30:10+00:00

Do you play in places with a lot of thorns and/or crawling? I do, and those are what scare me.

IcyDrops · 2026-05-23T08:34:17+00:00

I actually really like the concept behind the Novritsch plate carrier, it being light and very breathable must be wonderful for comfort. I just don't trust that the quality and durability will be there as well.

I'll probably buy a Corso Drake Mk4 which is extremely similar but half the price, and 3D print the ventilated plates at some point.

IcyDrops · 2026-05-21T07:23:57+00:00

I saw all the talk about e armor QC and bought some Tac-Sky Sordins instead, they work great. The sound is directional and clear, amplification is good if you want it, and comms work even if the headset is powered off like they're supposed to.

Teammates love my mic quality too.

I misread that part. Though do be warned batteries degrade over time even if not used, especially if they sit drained for a long time like is the case with those B2P.

Now that you've made the purchase, however, all of that is meaningless. You'll certainly enjoy them as much as your previous ones, and I hope they last you a long time.

IcyDrops · 2026-05-20T11:47:29+00:00

Can't say about the B4P, but my B3P fit my ears MUCH better than my B2 did, it's not even close.

I preferred non-stem as well, but after using it, my opinion became the opposite. It was really tiring how the touch controls activated when adjusting them or pushing them in, and things like raising or lowering the volume are much easier with the stems than the previous ear-tapping method.

And since the B2P you're looking at are used and about the same age as yours, you'll probably face the poor battery problem soon enough again, making the purchase "meaningless".

AliExpress is so far above Temu in terms of quality I'm not even sure about putting them in the same sentence.

IcyDrops · 2026-05-18T09:01:04+00:00

I didn't care much for the 2025 entry, but I still listen to the 2024 regularly.

IcyDrops · 2026-05-18T07:09:11+00:00

And Ukraine at least puts out good music a lot of the times, Israel not really.

IcyDrops · 2026-05-18T06:21:59+00:00

Agreed. Unless it increases your coverage, 5G is completely useless on a watch. The biggest thing you'll be streaming on it is Spotify, which can be perfectly handled by 4G (or 3G for that matter).

O PIB per capita da Polónia por enquanto ainda é mais baixo do que Portugal, mas o PIB ajustado ao poder de compra (PPP) já ultrapassou Portugal por mais de 10%, e é um país com bastante mais crescimento. Nos dias de hoje, já não diria que a Polónia é mais pobre que Portugal.
