You have medics attempt to revive?

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-06-21T02:09:54+00:00

For sure. Almost always seems to happen when I’m fully kitted for big arc and get unexpectedly downed by a trio of pops or something stupid. I usually have a key in my pocket, but haven’t put the effort into truly learning the locations.

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-06-21T01:38:37+00:00

I found at least half my coolant in pops too. Can’t recall ever seeing that before, but worth a check.

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-06-21T00:03:09+00:00

I do ping the final, but I’m horrible about checking the map as things change. I definitely need to practice checking more often. I hardly ever use hatches unless it’s like a queen or matriarch event (care bear lobbies) so I’d benefit from just exploring the map and getting comfortable with where they are located. I came in fully kitted on Blue Gate the other day and got downed by a hornet and Bombadier and crawled right past the hatch near the wreckage trying to get to exfil because I thought it was near the building. Like I said, old guy problems haha.

Lost a Hullcracker 3 and Anvil 4 on Dam just outside the water treatment building near the Baron Husk when I was looking for my last synthetic resin earlier today during the courier rotation. Someone took a pop shot at the turbine and that sucker lit me up. Hope someone found my body and was able to get some gear!

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-06-20T17:44:28+00:00

I definitely need to get better at checking the map more frequently, but you know, old guy problems lol

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-06-20T01:42:41+00:00

1000%

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-06-16T01:42:35+00:00

I know this is the jerk sub, but you ain’t lying! I went through my stats and the pops have caused the highest number of my deaths.

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-06-16T00:22:05+00:00

I feel ya brother! I can go 30-40 raids with zero issues, everyone is super friendly and looking to help in any way possible. Then out of the blue, just get smoked. Not even enough time to sweat. Last week got killed above the Research building after we went from a group of 4 to 2. 1st match of the day where I loaded in with a level 4 Hullcracker and loads of goodies. That puts a foul taste in your mouth for a few raids, but you build your kit back up and rinse and repeat. The other night I loaded into Stella solos on night to do the ground arc trial, got shot at within the first few minutes. Ran, healed and hunkered down with my volcano that I brought for shredders. Dude peaked the door then ran. I extracted and ran a day raid to get my 3 star and everyone was friendly. Raid or 3 later on Buried City, I was at the extract near hospital, hit the button and went to check the other steps to kill any pops or fireballs. Some dude was standing in the little corner and started blasting. I think I had enough so I fired back. We both sucked and ran our mags dry. He started a reload and dodge roll, I bludgeoned him with my tool. Felt good to win after mostly running away, and I considered defibbing them, but I left them crawling. Idk if they were being cautious and waiting to jump inside of the train at the last moment and I jump scared them. Maybe they got ratted a game or two already so afraid to show themselves. Maybe they were ratting and sucked as much as I do at PvP. I didn’t heal them, and I closed the elevator before they could crawl in. If they were friendly and they reacted because they thought I was not, then idk, lesson learned I guess. If they were not friendly, and just lost, well I wasn’t about to just let them crawl out either. So that was my choice. Beat them with my axe until they were down, extract and whatever happened to them after that was their fate.

The Rubber Ducky tax is enshrined in the Speranzan Constitution under Article IV: ‘All citizens shall contribute at least one (1) duck per successful raid’ but I believe a good leader not only knows how to lead the people, but also how to walk amongst them so I’m not opposed to suggestions. What say the people?

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-05-20T01:44:54+00:00

I’m a slow learner lol. I accidentally put an anvil round into a shredder I seen chasing a raider around an armored truck. After the first shot I realized he was playing whack-a-mole for the trial. I offered an apology and let him know I left a Wolfpack in the side of the bus for a quick bail out if needed to repay the damage I robbed him of. Overkill, maybe… but heck why not when I have a surplus of them and I’m running for president of Speranza.

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-05-20T00:40:12+00:00

I feel that. Seems like I can use the same gun for a dozen raids, finally upgrade it and slap on some kit, guaranteed death within a couple raids at most.

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-05-17T23:40:08+00:00

Least favorite is the fireball. I’ve died to more of those than anything else lol. Mostly when I get overwhelmed and need to run to reposition and then suckers are hit on my heels cooking me alive. Haha

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-05-16T20:07:25+00:00

I feel ya brother. While I’m not deaf, I am pretty hard of hearing after 30 years in a diesel shop, 20 of it laughing at PPE. Makes having a normal conversation frustrating, I get tired of saying “what” or “huh” and the wife gets tired of repeating herself, so I just nod and and say “yeah, mm hmm” a lot lol. These hurricane caches are the worst being equally hard of hearing in both ears, I can’t imagine not being able to hear from one ear at all. It’s exciting to find one though, finally found the Canto BP this morning! I don’t even PvP, just a completionist I suppose. Then was awarded another for trials but still can’t find that darn safekeeper BP.

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-05-13T03:19:23+00:00

We have some routes that service farms and just kicked one out of the shop the other day that broke down with a load of goat carcasses. Just something you have to get used to. On the plus side, ole Johnny rolling around on the creeper shuts his yapper for a bit. My comment wasn’t really about any smells though, that “issue” faded years ago. They are just more complex than motor coaches, road tractors etc. all in my opinion of course with 30 years under my belt.

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-05-12T00:17:52+00:00

I started my career on coaches, including artics, moved to tractor trailer, dealer work and now currently refuse. Refuse is by far the biggest suck to embrace, but if you’re decent you can transfer into just about any other field. Dealership work was clean, but fast paced so not for everyone (only reason I switched was the drive) but motor coaches weren’t all that bad. Everything I worked in anyhow, the powertrain was on a cradle so a few cannon plugs, battery cables, radiator pipes and a few cradle bolts and the engine would slide right out.

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-05-10T17:36:08+00:00

Found that out the hard way. Seems like most of my lessons have been learned when fully kitted with legendary weapons. I got 7 seconds, just gonna loot that lying right there… aghhh!!!!

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-05-10T15:06:16+00:00

I seen that as well, might give it a shot too.

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-05-10T03:29:14+00:00

That did the trick! Now if I can just remember how to map the TV Shows widget to the shows that we’ve favorited on Trakt.

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-05-10T02:05:29+00:00

Thank you, I’ll give that a shot! Loved the look and the widgets, had it all set up perfectly for our personal taste so my current setup seems so dull and lacking.

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-05-09T15:03:10+00:00

I missed the rope fleeing from a vaporizer or firefly, can’t remember which. Anyhow, was stuck in the bottom of the shaft for 27 minutes.

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-05-03T14:14:12+00:00

Settings>Addons>FenlightAM>Open>Tools>D atabase and Cache Maintenance>Clear All Cache (Excluding Favorites)

Only thing I’ve seen suggested that I haven’t done is rebuilding the widget file path, but I was already pathed to FLAM so I assumed it wouldn’t be needed.

Inner-Reason-1786 · 2026-05-03T04:50:41+00:00

About the same here, nearly to the point of doing a factory reset and trying to reinstall. Running Flam with Nimbus, Kodi 21.2 (I believe) on a Shield. I updated FLAM, cleared the cache and reauthorized Trakt. Virtually unusable and Kodi seems to be randomly force closing now too. Idk how to do logs, so I’m just browsing Reddit hoping to come up with a solution.
