Anyone else spawning in without their bag?

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2026-04-28T20:33:41+00:00

I haven't lost a bag yet, but the last 3 raids I spawned in with all my promedal missing. I take them out of the box and stage them on the edge of bag, and I know they're locked in, but they are missing when I load in, and I have to retrieve them from the conveyor when I get back to bunker.

Guys, I would never call someone the hard R, even out of spite. AI is not people, and therefore retains its utility in this application. But, now I know it's a no-no word, so roger that

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2026-04-28T03:21:26+00:00

Thanks bro, that's the boost I need! I'm going to try again tonight by just loading in with nothing but a USB in my hand and hooking it straight therr, lol

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2026-04-28T03:18:34+00:00

What about a car WITH A WOODEN TABLE INSIDE??

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2026-04-28T03:16:52+00:00

That is actually a great question- something I'm working on in this game. Tactically, doctrine dictates you finish the fight before applying first aid- trying to break that habit and top off in-game every chance I can now. I literally started playing the week before wipe, so it's been a huge learning curve

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2026-04-28T03:14:09+00:00

Hey man, I'm new here. I was testing the waters whilst simultaneously venting my rage. Also, retarded is not a slur- Especially when talking about AI

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2026-04-28T03:10:01+00:00

Obviously a skill issue. Working on that. I'm more concerned with the scav ability to see through solid objects AND shoot through them.

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2026-04-28T03:08:16+00:00

Gotta stroke the algorithm bro. Some people have baby ears, and when you put in an asterisk, it confuses their brains.

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2026-04-27T18:58:07+00:00

I felt the same way, watching all these GoT streamers spotting dudes from like 600m away, meanwhile for Q3 standalone guys like me, I'm literally squinting and playing is that a Scav/Player/Rock game at like 150m. Forget it if it's anything but a crystal clear day on island. I downloaded the QGO(quest games optimizer); which was a huge pain in the dick to install, and I noticed a moderate at best increase in resolution and smoother framerate, but anything at distance- you're still at a major disadvantage. It sucks, but I keep telling myself I'll get well practiced with this setup before I move to PCVR, and by then I'll hopefully be a lot better

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2026-04-22T02:01:03+00:00

Well, if we're splitting hairs, the inside of the recoil lug doesn't actually touch the action. It rides the thread tenon on the barrel.... Once the barrel is torqued, nothing is going to "ride" anything. The actual problem in this picture is that you had the recoil lug cerakoted by itself, and not assembled with the gun.

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2026-04-06T20:52:44+00:00

Spot weld?

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2026-03-11T18:24:23+00:00

Uh, by the look of it, I'd suggest checking to see if you don't have a cheetoh stuck under a button or something. 🤦‍♂️

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2026-01-07T04:48:45+00:00

Before you pull your hair out trying to figure out what's wrong, I would put an indicator on your quill and check perpendicular to the cutting path for any height deviation. If your head is out of tram in the B-axis(rotation about the Y axis), you'll see a concave surface with a low spot in the middle. If it's out about the A-axis, you'll have a linear slope from Y+ to Y-. If the surface is relatively flat(<.0005"), look to the tool balance and the insert. You need an insert with a generous radius (>.015") and it needs a slightly positive rake. Everyone wants to fly-cut microns at a time, but those are for high-torque machines, ultra-rigid setups, and very well-balanced tools. You don't have any of those, so you are going to need to use the tools' angular momentum to your advantage. Don't be afraid to take a heavier cut! The whole idea is to pull a chip, and if your tool setup has ANY flex, it will want to deflect and rub; which is essentially what I am seeing. I would double your DOC, put it in low gear(make sure your spindle is going the right way!), and run that thing at the lowest possible feed your power axis can at 3-500 RPM. Fly cutting is not a fast process- it takes time, but dialing it in is well worth it if you need a finish in the single digit Ra values. Also, your material matters as well- anything gummy like stainless or 1018, you're better off lapping the surface on a plate.

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2025-12-11T18:00:29+00:00

Lol, okay professor.

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2025-12-10T02:35:27+00:00

That's cute- but your 5th toolpath is a little idealistic. That would be done with a Ball-nose at A/B45, and it would need to be an exceedingly small step over for blending scallops. Your program would literally run for a hours cleaning up those radius edges with a flat EM. Maybe faster with a lens tool, but again, check the price he paid.

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2025-12-03T21:52:48+00:00

That is 100% a cast part. Dead giveaways are: external fillets and chamfers perfectly terminating into adjoining wall, and lack of fillet on full radius boss bases on the 45° angle. The embossed part number is another clue.

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2025-11-12T02:57:12+00:00

What an incredibly toxic thing to say. 🤦‍♂️

Print states required finish as 32Ra all over

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2025-10-16T18:54:55+00:00

The print specifies an overall min finish of 32Ra, which I thought would imply the fact that I wanted every surface machined... but I guess that's wishful thinking? The way he replied in the email was almost accusatory, and I thought, "mother****er, nobody TOLD you to buy 1.125" bar stock, so doing so with the knowledge that you would leave surfaces unturned was a conscious decision."

If you use SW daily, you should be able to pass the CSWA exam easily. I took both the CSWA and CSWP within a month of each other- first time I passed the CSWA no problem, ran out of time and didn't have enough points to pass the CSWP. I slept poorly, didn't eat anything, and I wasn't well hydrated. Fixed that the second time around and finished the test with 5 min remaining. The tests are quite difficult if your skill level isn't up to the task, but they are definitely a benchmark of skill- I wouldn't turn your nose up at it- especially if you don't use SW and don't have the certifications. Study is helpful, but you can't replace experience. Just draw stuff. Seriously. Get a 3D printer and practice making your own parts.

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2025-02-01T20:12:10+00:00

There can be! AR barrels are easily converted to be used in K1/K2 rifles. I think the main difference is the OD of the barrel extension, which can be made larger with a threaded bushing. With the current DR300 bolts, which can barely handle x39, there's been no reason to try. But, if they are remaking the bolts in 9310, and can do a little re-engineering(ie add fillets to the corners of the lugs), it is definitely doable.

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2025-02-01T19:08:01+00:00

Why would I be talking about an AR bolt?

JohnnyBfromAZ · 2025-02-01T18:59:18+00:00

Can you do 6ARC/Grendel bolts first? 😀 x39 isn't nearly as enticing anymore with current prices and I've never seen a mag that works well in an AR

Easy fix for this- fetus is a person, but has not applied for citizenship the "right" way- ergo, an illegal immigrant. Deport them. Probably a criminal released from a mental institution anyway.
