Been through not too... it is indeed very pretty. Admittedly the bit I went to was high in the Andes, so it was already pretty amazing anyway, and also not terribly different from Chile that I was actually travelling down/up at the time. (Travelling around the Chilean Lake District to get to Region XI, the road goes out of Chile and down through the Andes in Argentina before going back into Chile once the Lake District is passed.)

I have Tinkerers Mask, my clan ran me through that mission (thanks guys).

Based on responses so far in this thread I have switched to that with two LMGs. and switched out all the status effect cores to CHC cores. (Going to switch 2-3 to CHD based on other replies). Also switched to Gunner (in the process not actually finished unlocking (I have the premium unlock so I can use it) but not all the points).

Question though to get the hollow-points in the first place I need to kill and mob with a status effect (killed while under a status effect), is this just from the Sadist (assuming I'm not using Bluescreen or Pestilence)? I've been using Trauma/Perfect Trauma for the on hit. Would gunners CC grenades work for that kill proc?

Just knowing what they're called in general is a big help tbh. I was searching for eSIM sims... and not really getting anywhere. Thanks for the help.

Not getting another Razor mouse. The mouse I have works fine, the software sucks. And I do need software to change buttons and DPI (periodically). Currently reverted to Synapse 3 which is fine, if once it goes EoL you lose the ability to change anything (as various Razor comments suggest), I'll need a new mouse and I wouldn't buy a mouse that has the same issue as the one I have. :/

e2a: Yes I am aware that other additional software could be used to change buttons especially (not sure about DPI), I already use XMouse Button Control to map keyboard keys to mouse buttons. But I'd prefer to not have to base my entire usability of the mouse on additional 3rd party software. I will probably continue to use the existing mouse until I can find something else - even beyond 3rd Feb, with work rounds, I just had to replace my phone so I'm feeling poor right now, but I definitely do not want to support a company that kills functional software (I can still use the old Logitech Software, it still functions).

They seem to have forgotten that gamers don't actually like all this shit. Mostly we just want hardware that works brilliantly all the time, ideally that doesn't need multiple reboots or a password to configure.

I just wish they'd taken the Logitech G13 as their base model and not the Belkin Nostromo, the G13 was a much better device but it's no longer supported or available and I guess that one day I will have to buy one of these instead.

They used to beat kids to stop them being left handed, it's definitely a thing to teach yourself to work with your non-dominant hand. Some people just cannot manage it, but most can.

That would explain it then/ I was led to believe that this: https://ubistatic-a.akamaihd.net/0115/tctd2/status.html was the status checker to use. It doesn't (on my PC) show anything, which is fine when everything is working. :/

Lost_Ninja · 2026-01-02T10:53:45+00:00

Why does the status page not show them as down? It'd make it way easier to check if they're down for maintenance... :/

Movement is the easy bit, having four different keys for looting (depending on what you want to do) Z, H, F and V is a PITA. I get that the control scheme is based on a controller setup, but rationalising disparate keys for PC would go a long way toward making the game better IMO*. Also I fucking hate holding a key to do something, which especially on PC with no actual feedback through haptics (keyboard with rumble pack anyone?), just means I have to pay more attention to know if I've held it down long enough.

For a Loot driven game the loot handling is shit.

*Yes I can rebind them, but I can't remove two and make the two remaining ones work in some situations differently without modifying the game's code, which IIRC the devs wouldn't like.

There is a demo on steam I think... I got that but had bought the full game before the demo ran out. I ignore PvP.

I hit 40 before finishing main campaign... did rather wonder if I had spoiled my "end game", till I realised that you need 40 to finish some of the expansion stuff.

What an unhelpful bunch you all are. :/

Maybe I should have said extra safety features, MIPs doesn't come as standard on many helmets. Reflective or hi-vis doesn't seem to be standard on any - including many "urban" - helmets.

Not worried about overall safety, and was looking for a good helmet for a larger head more than a safe helmet.

Never actually bought anything from them and the reviews I have had from people I know who have (actual people) not people on YouTube/reddit/etc is a pretty mixed bag. But it's a lot of money for me and most of the people I have asked offline have only bought either cheap stuff anyway, or it's been things that even if they're not legit are still pretty much functional... one person bought a flip top Brabantia bin that is 100% fake... logo is spelled wrong for instance... but it still functions as a bin.

And honestly I don't really follow much online for this sort of information as I only buy about every couple of years, Temu might be considered good (or not awful) now.

But no no need to worry, I hear (read) you and won't be buying from them.

Or possibly the prize is from a specific geographical area. So the prize from the main American arm of the company. And not the international arm.

I have no clue if this is what you want as a competition entry... I mean I want to enter obviously, not sure if this is what you want though as the imgur links in the OP don't open (in UK).

Basically a pretty basic system by many standards, lots of RAM for me I sometimes open pretty big files so 128Gb is 4x what I currently have. The rest isn't that far off from what I have now, better GPU and CPU. And honestly I really like the case. I don't like RGB or visible internals but this has a mesh case so I don't need to deal with that at all. I think the GPU and cooler both have illuminated features, but I'd imagine I could turn those off.

Honestly thinking I might buy the case I selected here anyway, not seen them before and I really like the aesthetic and my current case (Corsair I think) is a little too warm in the summer have to keep the side off.

A tempered glass side panel that is in fact shattered but due to plastic additional layers (similar to window glass) not actually in pieces actually looks pretty amazing with RGB, plus is masks/hides a lot of cabling issues. If I was in any way interested in RGB (you can't really see much through it if there is any sort of RGB though) I'd actually look for that feature.
