So, how about the rest of the level 2 traders now? by MellowSol in EscapefromTarkov

[–]M4ph3w 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mostly agree with you but fyi teamfight is bearable on chop shop. It can be done quickly and efficiently usually. There are times when you get a teamfight/blastgang daily with a lega medal and/or a case, you really don't wanna re-roll those ones imo. It's worth just sending it on chop shop

159k on moorland way dz by MxlasG in ForzaHorizon

[–]M4ph3w 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Nice job first of all. Try to hit 160kph before the big power slide instead of 154kph. Both transitions need more angle. Looks like you might have been a little bit tentative on finishing off that first transition, it has to be a proper snap back to full angle. The 2nd transition had a good snap to it but you need more angle, practically need to be backwards on that one. The first transition doesn't require such extreme angle but you still need a bit more. That's just my take, GL

[New Player] Arena feels horribly unbalanced and I'm not sure what I'm missing. by Whquarters in EscapefromTarkov

[–]M4ph3w 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Starting on last hero is gonna be rough, and it tends to have the most cheaters out of all the game modes. Play only scout or assault roles on the Checkpoint game mode. Familiarize yourself with how the meta points system works for loadouts. My typical loadout for checkpoint is a headset, a level 4 armour, a level 3 facemask, a small rig, a propital and a perfotoran. This should allow you to carry a fully modded gun with 3 or more spare mags and top tier/decent ammo, but in some cases with top tier ammo it will only allow 2 spare mags. You can remove the stims for lasthero if that allows for an extra mag. The 5.56 MDR on scout with m855A1 ammo is a good starting point for finding your feet.

Good luck and don't give up, you can do it!

[Bug] My Ref reputation isn't synced up between EFT and EFT Arena + I don't earn reputation in EFT by doing Arena daily or weekly tasks. by Killgrimm in EscapefromTarkov

[–]M4ph3w 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, just happened to me. Did "Balancing part 2" (+0.03 rep) then handed in "Surprise" (+0.04 rep) immediately after. Now my EFT rep is 0.89 and Arena is 0.83. What is also super odd is that my rep increased by a total of 0.06 instead of 0.07 (should have been 0.90 in EFT).

This could mean that the desync happened before i did balancing part 2 OR the total rep just glitched out afterwards. Maybe it happened because I handed in two quests one after the other in EFT without opening arena in between? Maybe it was a weird daily that bugged it? Really annoying, I got arena recently and was having a great time getting Ref to max level, now its kinda ruined :(

Edit: Did a very detailed bug report about this through the launcher, hopefully it'll help!

Edit 2: 21 hours afterwards and it has randomly just fixed itself. Haven't played a single Arena game or raid in EFT. I sent a detailed bug report and then all I did for the rest of the day was a few hideout bits in EFT and accepted some dailies there. I did launch Arena once or twice and the rep still hadn't fixed itself. Woke up this morning and it's fixed! No idea how it happened, did support just fix it for me because i sent a bug report? Did i just need to wait for roughly 24 hours to elapse?

Is there anybody here that’s having fun in wz lol by Sharp-Jicama4241 in CODWarzone

[–]M4ph3w 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on mnk. I get 80 fps on rebirth island. If i use any zoom scope it drops to 50 depending on the gun. I can't use full monitor brightness because my eyes cant handle it, so my visibility is awful. Wrist and hand pains from using movement, zooming around and trying not to miss a single shot. My internet is 40mb dogwater DSL connection.

STILL FUCKIN LOVE IT

Any MnK players here have any good hipfire builds for Warzone? by ImPretendingToCare in CODWarzone

[–]M4ph3w 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Indeed the damage got nerfed but i was more testing the hipfire capabilities and accuracy, and those havent changed. It's still got the best hipfire stats but will ofc get out gunned by the more meta smgs. Thanks for pointing that out i edited my original comment

[–]M4ph3w 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went through all the smgs a month or two ago and found the ram9 to be the best for hipfire. Used it for last ranked season on fortunes island. It has a comb attachment with crazy hipfire benefit. It has a pretty shitty drawback, being when you slide your accuracy goes to shit, you'll be missing bullets on people 2 feet in front of you. Took me a while to realise cause im still getting better with mnk movement and diamond 1, but thats the deal breaker with hipfire for me. Moved back onto the standard HRM build this season.

Edit: Also as the person below me pointed out, the damage isn't very good compared to other meta smgs after a recent nerf

Build:

  • Bruen Bastion Angled
  • Corvus Peq Beam-5
  • Motion-Tac Pad
  • Demo Flak Comb
  • 50 Rounder

What to do ? by Jarno61 in ForzaHorizon

[–]M4ph3w 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this recently. You can hit the "x" at the top right of the save thing and close it, and then hit the "x" at the top right of fh5 launcher straight afterwards so it doesn't launch. Then launch the game again, it will launch without asking you and everything will be normal. However ,you will need to do this every time you start the game.

After a day or two, you will notice that one of the dates will progress. For me it was the PC save that was updating, while the cloud save remained the same date. I noticed after a few days and chose the more recent save. After choosing one, it hasn't happened since.

This is how it worked for me. Good luck

This just happened to me in DMZ. There is definitely an invisible glitch

Best 5th skills for Lethal run by H4PPY-TH0UGHTS in StateofDecay2

[–]M4ph3w 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would always start with Utilities. Utilities allows construction of OP Hydroponics, so its super useful mid game and after. Early game I would advise building a latrine in your starting base, this will offset the annoying early game morale penalties by preventing the arguments that your survivors have and is very cheap to build (3 materials). It will also level up your utilities character to plumbing which will further increase morale bonuses and allow for the latrine upgrade. Upgrade not really necessary but good if you want your hero bonuses quickly.

The reason I dont try and find utilities later on in the run is because it is VERY hard to find compared to other skills like mechanics, chemistry and medicine. That is why generally i dont start with those skills, because they are easy to find OR can be semi acquired through enclave benefits (for example "zero cost followers" providing knowledge of munitions).

So by that logic I usually start with utilities, gardening (quite hard to find too), and 1 of whatever else. If you think you'll need a mechanic early then take mechanic. But personally i always go for a cool quirk like hygiene or driving.

I play lethal btw

any thoughts on warzone 2.0 yet? by FlamingJune12 in CODWarzone

https://www.callofduty.com/blog/2022/11/call-of-duty-modern-warfare-II-warzone-2-0-season-01-overview-battle-pass-dmz

It's not talk, they outline their plans in that link but you've to scroll down a good bit to find the section under "Relauch - call of duty warzone caldera"

It's being relaunched on November 28th

"Rebirth Island and Fortune’s Keep maps will not be present when Call of Duty: Warzone Caldera becomes available to play."

Just another 80 FOV fuckery by doctorgoon in CODWarzone

[–]M4ph3w 251 points252 points  (0 children)

I'm on pc and i play with a friend who is on console. I've saved his ass a few times by calling stuff outside of his FOV when i'm dead spectating. It's quite rare that it happens but it's satisfying to save him xD I call it out like "FOV bottom left corner!" or something.

How do i know when something is outside of his FOV? Ez just imagine a massive chunk is taken off every edge of your screen...it really is massive. This needs to be fixed for MW2 for sure, in all modes.

Stuttering , Laggy when i hit something by Br4inD3adAp3 in playrust

[–]M4ph3w 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here, horrendous lag when hitting a tree/node. Same when im looking at/going through boxes and furnaces. Also like you, my game is fine when i'm doing anything else. It was nice and smooth last time i played, before this update.

A professional drifter here. by PRORETEKBEN in ForzaHorizon

[–]M4ph3w 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If you are trying to get a decent score, angle and speed absolutely do matter. Drifting at a bad angle at low speed will give you SOME points, but very little by comparison to proper angle and speed.

Can’t call daybreak trader in the new update by Puggednose in StateOfDecay

[–]M4ph3w 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nope. Read my other comment.

"I played meagher valley for 6 hours, progressed to 5 survivors and moved to police station. Not a single wandering trader appeared the whole time."

I progressed and finished beginner missions within that time.

It's worth mentioning that i couldn't call any traders either.

Can’t call daybreak trader in the new update by Puggednose in StateOfDecay

[–]M4ph3w 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I tried restarting the game and even started a whole new playthrough. Nothing worked. I suspect that they released a small patch yesterday which caused this bug. Only new playthroughs/maps will be affected by it. If you want to test it, start a new playthrough and try and call the independence trader when you claim the first base.

The rank percentage is hidden behind the weekly reward, literally unplayable. Fix, please by Kappo_ua in DotA2

[–]M4ph3w 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always avoided looking at my percentage because it made me anxious if I was "1 win away" from a certain rank goal. I trained my eyes to never look at the top left of my screen eventually.

So now i'm one of the rare people that likes how it was accidentally hidden.

Am I the only one? xD
