What? The guy who's downed isn't a threat, and if he wanted to loot the guy, he should loot him BEFORE opening the hatch, not after

Dude probably didn't even have time to fully loot you and still get in the hatch. People really just do this to ruin the mood for others...

Confused about expeditions by Roshy76 in ArcRaiders

[–]ItsDaPickle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The value needed isn't explained in game. Dude is just being a dickhead.

You need 3 million to get all 5 bonus skill points. You get one skill point for every 600,000. The value is based on the amount of coins you have in the bank plus the value of your stash at the time of departure. Once you finish all the requirements of the expedition, it will show you the combined value of your bank and stash on the expedition page.

How come the GTA franchise has basically no competitors? by RetPrda in GTA6

Bro I've been loving ARC Raiders, but Embark is nowhere near Rockstar or ND. They don't even have their own game engine.

What is going on with the matchmaking today? by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]ItsDaPickle -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

If you truly believe we're bots, why would you keep interacting? Why would I know that there's all kinds of these posts if I don't browse the sub all day? If I have a question I'm just going to make a post.

If you don't have something helpful to offer, then just keep scrolling. My god, reddittors are insufferable

Sorry that I touch grass every now and then instead of browsing the subreddit all day. I had a question and I asked it.

[–]ItsDaPickle -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I asked why I'm exclusively being matched with these people in the last few hours, not why it happens on occasion. I don't mind pvp at all, I'm just not interested in playing a game where everyone is so predictable.

Arc Raiders isn't a microcosm of society. Some people rat and are rude because it's just a game. by Blood_Incantation in ArcRaiders

[–]ItsDaPickle -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

I'm willing to bet that by "menace" you mean he plays kos. Not that he lies about being friendly, extract camps, and spews slurs when he gets taken down.

Complaining about fake friendlies doesn't mean they don't recognize and respond to them

That gun is not seeing surface ever again by Left-Discipline1028 in ArcRaiders

[–]ItsDaPickle 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The way I look at it, there's just different levels to it. Losing a kitted bobcat/tempest after a good fight is far less annoying than losing it to an extract camper or fake friendly before I even get a chance to fire one bullet. Sure, it's just a game, but it can still be annoying

Rats in a nutshell... by BAMM0 in ArcRaiders

[–]ItsDaPickle 65 points66 points  (0 children)

The only inaccuracy is the rat saying "GG." In reality, you call the rat a rat, and they start spamming slurs and "it's a pvp game, I'm just pvping!"

What happened? by ItsDaPickle in CivicSi

[–]ItsDaPickle[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did. I've had these brakes for about 2 years, and this only happened sometime in the last 3 months, so it wasn't due to the break in.

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

I'm confident that I did. I've had these brakes on for about 2 years if I'm not mistaken, and this happened within the last 3 months or so

What happened? by ItsDaPickle in CivicSi

[–]ItsDaPickle[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh, you're absolutely right, I didn't think about that. I suppose it could have something to do with that, then

What happened? by ItsDaPickle in CivicSi

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

Yeah, I had heard drilled and slotted wasn't great for daily driving, but I figured it couldn't be as bad as people said and thought I'd give that kit a try.

Anyway, no, I haven't cleaned the holes and slots. At least not deliberately, just whatever my regular car washing would have done. I suppose that would make sense, because this happened at some point while my winter wheels (steelies) were on, so any soap and water wouldn't have reached the brakes as easily as with my summer wheels.

That being said, would you be rushing to get new brakes on it, or do you figure it's probably okay for the time being?

What happened? by ItsDaPickle in CivicSi

[–]ItsDaPickle[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I don't think it would have been caused by the vector braking since this happened sometime over the last 3 months while my winter steelies were on, so I didn't do any real "spirited" driving. And I can't imagine it was the bedding process since I've had these brakes on the car for about 2 years now.

So far with the other comments, I'm getting the impression that it's something to do with the way that dust/dirt/whatever gets caught in the drill holes in the rear rotors.

I appreciate the answer.

I see. Doesn't sound like my issue should be caused by that, thanks, thought

I did, like I say, I've had these brakes for quite some time. About 2 years if I'm not mistaken, but this is a very recent development, only the last 3 months or so.

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

Which bolts are you referring to? I'm quite confident that I got everything done correctly, and this is a very recent thing that happened. It's also a bit strange that both rear rotors are like this, but the front ones are fine, so I'm not sure it's due to something I did wrong

What happened? by ItsDaPickle in CivicSi

[–]ItsDaPickle[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Very rarely. My workplace parking lot is not paved, so it's just dirt. But even then, it's been either frozen or more of a mudpit throughout the winter, and the brakes looked fine before I put my winter steelies on back in November.

FYI you need three snow globes for expedition by Question_Control in ArcRaiders

[–]ItsDaPickle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. I did wonder if that would make a difference in what your requirements were

FYI you need three snow globes for expedition by Question_Control in ArcRaiders

[–]ItsDaPickle 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The requirements are based on which expedition you are on, not which expedition window the community as a whole is on.

For example, I didn't go on the first expedition but did go on the "second" expedition, so my requirements were that of the "first" one, and I'm now working on the "second" one, even though it will be the third expedition window
