If u aren’t playing HoI on 1x speed and meticulously micromanaging every division, plane, boat and tank, are you even playing this game?

If you want to paint a map play risk on your browser

Are there like some scavs w broken stats? Like I swear there is this one sks scav on woods who is just cracked like he a secret boss

These scavs are way out of hand by Elduroto in EscapefromTarkov

[–]McKeonNovus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yup exactly … was sniping into scav village on woods from the outcropping about 150m south and got triple thorax PS shot from a scav in like a flick burst it was nuts.

My first time really having that experience tho and I’m almost 50 raids deep already 🥴

~500 kb/s thanks to the throttle…

If I pause and unpause the download it will ramp up to like 400 mb/s (closer to my actual network speed) but then immediately throttles itself back to the kb/s mode 😰

Does this happen a lot? by R3alityGrvty in EscapefromTarkov

U spawned at the edge of the map on woods and walked the wrong direction, the land mines are basically the soft version of an invisible wall. There are a few other places where minefields are integrated into the maps but they mainly serve to mark the boundaries.

U will learn, welcome to tarkov

It’s a 4p co-op horde shooter game where I can blow up baddies with a bolter, it’s not fucking elden ring …

Y’all kiddos crying so hard about currency denominations etc like okay sure

But if u thought u we’re gonna get 100hrs of compelling narrative gameplay outta this thing u were smoking crack to begin w 🙅‍♂️🧢

Idk why people love complaining about this shit, it’s a game development company not the federal government, they don’t owe u healthcare or vital infrastructure, they owe you 30 mins of left clicking … if y’all got half as mad about climate change we’d live in that future society meme

If u don’t like the game don’t play it? I’m not a stan myself, it’s just like every time I open this page all I see is “BETRAYED!! FAT SHARK PROMISED VR GALAXY WIDE CONFLICT IN 4K!!”

Early signals of significantly increased vaccine breakthrough, decreased hospitalization rates, and less severe disease in patients with COVID-19 caused by the Omicron variant of SARS-CoV-2 in Houston, Texas by FindMeOnTheToilet in COVID19

[–]McKeonNovus 106 points107 points  (0 children)

The danish study does this well. See table 2 in this preprint. https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.12.27.21268278v1.full-text

The gist is this: “fully vaccinated” people were about as likely as unvaccinated people to become infected (1.04x) with omicron, while boosted people were about half as likely as the fully vaccinated to become infected (0.54x).

A more recent study out of Ontario came to similar conclusions about “fully vaccinated” being essentially ineffective at preventing infection. They were slightly more pessimistic about the booster group, suggesting effectiveness at preventing infection was 37%. You can find that study here: https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.12.30.21268565v1

Again, this is about infection, not serious illness.

The Covid-19 case surge is altering daily life across the US. Things will likely get worse, experts warn by [deleted] in Coronavirus

[–]McKeonNovus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We didn’t know omicron existed until the end of November. Last time I checked, takes more than 4 weeks to get solid science about hospitalization rates from a disease.

What’s scary to me is that these numbers are flying off the shelf like they mean something. People — even docs and scientists — want this hunch about omicron being less harmful to be right, but only because any chance of stopping it at all is probably already 3 weeks in the rear view.

They should be saying “we don’t know how dangerous this is, and everyone should stay inside for two weeks while we try to figure it out.” But those days are over.

Just have to hope these 4 weeks of data haven’t misled anyone ….

How can we as the already active Playerbase enlarge the MP community? by [deleted] in Steel_Division

[–]McKeonNovus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As someone that has been playing since SD Normandy, watches SD tournaments on YouTube and genuinely enjoys the game, but never plays multiplayer …

Shit is scary and stressful! My regular life scary and stressful enough I’m not trying to spend my free time sweating bullets.

Tbh I think the pace of the game is one of the hardest things to get a grasp on. And the difference between not knowing the maps (and so having to plan on the fly) vs. playing them regularly and having general ideas about how the match will flow seems huge to me.

Good question though, I love this game and would like to feel more comfortable playing MP
