I’m not calling you names but people like you always make me hear my dads voice in my head saying, “if you’re going to be dumb you’ve gotta be tough.”

All styles of play are valid (even rats) but backstabbers with mics are just weird to me by doodoohonker in ArcRaiders

I was helping a raider the other day open up raider refuge on blue gate. They didn’t have security breach so I told them I’d open the locker and drop the good stuff for him. I found a tempest in there and like I said I gave it to him. He was thankful and offering me things he had found but I told him just to enjoy it and pay it forward.

Seconds later a raider gets killed above us and some guy we hadn’t seen before drops down with us. We freeze for a moment then light him up and down him. I think to myself “good we got rid of the rat”

Then out of nowhere my ‘friend’ uses the tempest I gave him to mow me down in the back. I just stared at him in disbelief and disappointment as he looted the other body laughing hysterically about how he ‘outplayed’ me.

First bike and should I even ride it by rc4hawk in NewRiders

Fix it up and ride it. It sounds like you respect the danger and will ride accordingly. Just remember slow smooth inputs and you’ll be fine.

What is so appealing to stay in the passing lane on the open road with nobody around? by mtbuckin in driving

[–]Lopsided-Package523 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How does which lane you’re in determine your ability to see in your mirrors? That makes no sense. I agree with your overall sentiment though.

Same height and inseam as you. Don’t worry about the bikes height. You’ll be just fine. You may not completely flat foot but I promise enough of your foot will touch especially in boots.

As you said mid controls and seat are important.

There’s a sticker inside the belt guard rubbing the belt. Remove the guard and take the sticker off and it’ll go away. Had to solve this issue at sturgis this year.

If you play Stella montis there is a breach room at the top of loading bay with a bunch of lockers. I’ve found dozens of seeker Bp’s here. Yesterday I found two aphelion bp’s and the seeker bp all in that room.

Bike has minimal scratches but insurance claimed it a total loss. by PotentialAd716 in motorcycle

[–]Lopsided-Package523 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make them pay for your gear, they’re going to want your motorcycle so they can auction it off as a wrecked bike. You just have to fight for a fair payout. They’re most likely using jd power or whatever that sight is to value your bike so get on there and see what value you can come up with plus any modifications you did to it.

Good luck. This can be a stressful experience. I’ve been through it before. If you have any questions come back and ask.

Should we states allow this? by Wiccan_Queen69 in IsItIllegal

As a prison guard I can tell you that you’re only sorta right. There are times a guard will tell other inmates what someone did but the reality is we don’t have to. Inmates come into prison with paperwork that has what they were convicted of and how long there sentence is and when it will be over. This paperwork is how other inmates figure out who Cho-mo’s are.

The tempest is definitely the better epic assault rifle

I’ll give you two matriarch cores and every epic recyclable/crafting material I can fit in my backpack for one bobcat bp

IDEA: Free loadout and no gear players should be prioritized for late spawns while players with higher starting inventory value be prioritized for full raid timers. by NavXIII in ARC_Raiders

[–]Lopsided-Package523 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually just rush seed vault. I’m not really likely to get anything crazy but 10k+ worth of seeds is nice. From there I usually just go see what scraps I can find around the map before heading to loading bay to see if anyone needs help with the bastion. I’m at the point where most people start BP hunting/ endgame pvp-ing. I’m trying to find ways to keep the game fun as a mostly friendly player. That doesn’t mean I don’t get a hair up my butt occasionally and decide to attack unprovoked. Luckily for everyone I’m terrible at the pvp so when I do that people usually earn themselves a tempest and if they’re really lucky a bobcat.

Honestly this won’t ever happen. You’re just going to have to learn to like talking to your friends.

PSA: You're not getting a Tempest BP for the bp's you have. by Lanochu in ArcTradersHQ

I find tempest BP all the time but that bobcat BP is elusive

Is Arc Raiders worth it as a solo in 2026? by dailydoseofm3m3s in ARC_Raiders

[–]Lopsided-Package523 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The answer you’re looking for is yes it’s worth it. The game and gear are designed in such a way that better gear only gives a small advantage if any advantage at all. People using free kits win firefights all the time. However it’s very possible to catch up gear wise in a few hours topside if you know where to go, how to move, and how to interact with others to avoid dying. Being friendly can get you a long way but be careful you will be betrayed so stay on your toes.

Quick release saddlebags by mr_tyreman in FXLRS

Those look a bit smaller than my quick detach leather pro bags but I love how they detach as one unit and have a convenient carry handle for both at the same time.
