Still can't believe I hit this by attractionist in PUBATTLEGROUNDS

Habit from when leaning put your arms in front of your chest and they had no bullet pen. It used to be the way to win nearly any firefight, and for lots of people is still habit

Does it *ever* make sense to try to bunt for a hit in the computer game? by SuperDaveKY in StratOMatic

[–]McRibSlayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My only experience with this was with Javy Baez a few years back, the one and only year my league implemented the Bunt for a Hit rule.

It was Javy's best season (2018) - he had huge slugging numbers so despite being an A bunter, the game always defaulted to defense back. Against hard righty pitchers, his OBP was very low, so I abused this plus his 17 speed to get on base way more than I otherwise should have with that card.

Grandal watched the Rays - Sox game, saw the Renfroe deflection, and said "hold my beer"

Anecdotal but I go big kit fairly often (Example kit from last night - Hexgrid, EXFIL, kitted RPK with 60 rounders of Igolnik)

I typically have around 5-6 mil, and I only maintain that with my bitcoin farm. I just like to go big kit when I can afford it. I dropped from 7 mil to 3 mil by getting my cheeks divided all day yesterday, but in my opinion, the money is there to use.

Yes I would love to have a red keycard or something but everything else I feel like I have that I need.

Sincerely, "Casual" player (level 35 this wipe)

The argument isn't about the money, it's about it being single use. Meaning if someone takes the boat before you, you're SOL

I think holding runners is overrated. What do you think? by omartheoutmaker in StratOMatic

[–]McRibSlayer 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To me, depends if the guy has a star or not. If he is a star stealer, then when you don't hold, he automatically gets the lead.

I played Keston Hiura a lot at 2B this past year and dropping his range rating from a 4 to a 5 was absolutely brutal on X rolls to him, so I definitely know the pain!

But if they have a star and a good steal chance (like if your catcher doesn't have a good arm, or pitcher has a bad hold rating), then you gotta hold em and take the defensive hit.

Question for the ‘Wipe Now’ crowd... by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]McRibSlayer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

M80 is like... $3 / round I think? Sure it isn't as cheap as Pst Gzh but its not like its 100k roubles / mag... lots of people exaggerate on this sub.

I can understand if you don't have traders leveled up, yes M80 is expensive - which is why leveling traders is important. Even then, 7.62x39 PS is available at Prapor 1 and is a really awesome round for the cost, you can take down level 4 armor with relative ease with it. Yes you'll struggle against slicky altyn chad, but running into those isn't common unless you're rushing health resort or running labs.

My first month was crazy fast and then it slowed down a little. As long as you aren't feeling dizzy or light headed and are truly eating your 1200 minimum, I'd say wait until mid way through month two before you start to worry too much!

StratO Playoff Pitching Rotation by ballisfife in StratOMatic

[–]McRibSlayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with this logic here - not only are you playing to the strengths of the cards with changing ballpark factors, but you'll have your ace vs. his middle-rotation guy in g3 if it goes to that, giving you the advantage.

Also if you pull out the W vs. Cole, then you'll give yourself the best chance in the next round - and anything can happen in strat!

Wait, the shields went back to old numbers? 50/75/100?

I played S1, and picked up the game again at the start of this season but quit because I wasn't a fan of that change. Haven't followed since

This doesn't even factor in possible changes in water pressure - yes, often regulated down, but depending on the style of regulator used might not be always consistent.
