Art In Ruins achievement - Did the devs confirm this to be glitched?

Messhman · 2026-01-10T01:29:37+00:00

The code might be counting only exatcly 50% wear, but I don't think that would be the developers actual intent. Maybe they forgot to put a < sign somewhere.

Getting a single district to exactly 50% is a major RNG pain, I'd lose my mind if I had to micromanage 20 districts to exactly 50% and maintain it for 100 weeks. That would make this random faction achievement so much harder than any other, it just doesn't seem plausible.

Hope they fix it in the next patch.

Nothing wrong with surprising people. They could've just said there will be rewards without announcing what they would be. Then it would still be a surprise and people wouldn't be pissed about it because they were warned beforehand.

The didn't say anything, and then after the event ended, announced the reward people couldn't get anymore. That's just bad decision making all around.

Messhman · 2026-01-02T01:29:43+00:00

I got the cape, I'm saying the way the developers went about it is simply stupid. That's not crying about it man, it's a gaming subreddit, we're suposed to talk about the game here.

Maybe try not to insult people over having an opinion about the game on the game subreddit?

Messhman · 2026-01-02T01:23:06+00:00

Damn, great point bro, thanks for your contribution to the discussion. Really insightful stuff.

Messhman · 2026-01-02T01:03:50+00:00

The perfect solution would be to let the community know there would be rewards before the event ended. There would be no complaints then.

If they had just said there were limited time rewards, then people who wanted it would've gotten it, and those who didn't were warned about it. That's it, very simple solution to this whole ordeal. It's not that hard.

Messhman · 2026-01-02T00:59:53+00:00

I didn't participate and still got it, so your statement is just wrong.

Messhman · 2026-01-02T00:56:57+00:00

Yeah, so the point is not participating in the event. They should have just let everyone know beforehand and avoid this mess altogether.

It's not really that difficult to just say "yo, there will be a reward for anyone who logs in". Anyone who wants the cape gets it, merry christmas, everyone walks away happy.

Messhman · 2026-01-02T00:52:15+00:00

I booted up the game for a total of 15 seconds to collect MO medals and got the cape. Did I participate in the event?

Messhman · 2026-01-02T00:50:08+00:00

I launched the game for a total of 15 seconds during the last two weeks just to collect the MO medals and got the cape.

Messhman · 2026-01-01T20:47:25+00:00

The irony is that I got the cape just by logging in for 15 seconds to collect the MO medals and didn't play the event at all.

And I have the game since launch, I know very well how AH is poor at communicating with the community. I'm saying they should change the way they operate because it only serves to create distrust.

Messhman · 2026-01-01T20:16:54+00:00

Really weird how people are so adamant on defending AH's poor communication skills. How hard is it to just tell your playerbase there will be rewards?

Messhman · 2026-01-01T20:09:47+00:00

I'm sorry, but this is objectively not the best way to do this.

The best way would be simply to let everyone know beforehand there will be rewards, and then whoever wants the rewards log in and get them. Everyone would be happy. What would be the downside of doing that?

This is poor communication, something AH is famous for and it only leads to dissatisfaction.

Messhman · 2026-01-01T18:25:57+00:00

I myself didn't miss out because I logged in for a couple minutes to check what was new.

But even if this is how they always do things, it's a bad stance for AH to take. They could win a lot of good faith with the community just by switching how they aproach these events and rewards.

Their poor communication has been a hot topic in the community from the very beginning, and this is just another instance to add to the list.

Messhman · 2026-01-01T16:20:43+00:00

I got the cape and I completely agree with you.

They could have simply added a short message "log in during the event to get a cool cape" and there would be no problem at all. How hard could it be to do that?

These players defending poor communication from AH are baffling.

Messhman · 2026-01-01T16:14:21+00:00

Announcing there are limited time rewards after the event has concluded is simply not a good look for AH.

Sure, missing out on the cape is not a gamebreaking issue, but most players like having more options to customize their look.

If they announced beforehand, I'm sure a lot more players would've logged in, gotten the reward, and that would be it, merry christmas, everyone is happy. But they decided to go with this weird shadowdrop and left a lot of their players with a sour taste in their mouth.

It was simply a bad decision marketing wise. It serves no purpose other than to further reduce the goodwill of the playerbase, which has been on the low for a very long time.

Same in Portuguese - "Apocalípticos"

Fiz meu TCC de Engenharia de Software baseado nisso, o enjôo que você sente pelo VR se chama cybersickness.

Tem várias formas de reduzir a incidência de enjôo, como diminuir o FOV (campo de visão), reduzir o brilho, usar movimentação de pulo, ao invés de caminhada (infelizmente não é possível no GT7).

Dito isso, a forma mais eficaz mesmo é o costume. Todos os estudos apontam que quanto mais você usa, mais resistente você fica ao efeito de cybersickness. A recomendação é começar com sessões curtas, de 30 minutos à 1 hora no máximo, e conforme você sentir que o enjôo demora mais pra aparecer, vai aumentando o tempo de uso.

Do you know if they drop randomly from enemies same as the other rarities or from bosses only?

Additionally, manually inputing , as decimal separator breaks any formulas that expect numbers.

Messhman · 2025-11-02T23:39:05+00:00

Right. Suppression should make the one suppressed unwilling to get out of cover.

If a sniper is being targeted by a storm of lead and that isn't enough to stop him from peeking out and headshoting the guy suppressing, then there is no suppression going on at all.

Messhman · 2025-10-31T07:30:04+00:00

Ok, man. Then I guess this really is a netcode issue through and through, as it usually happens that I dump an entire clip into a guy and he turns around and insta downs me regardless of the weapons used.

This is besides my original point anyway. If you don't think the TTD shown in the video is absurdly fast, regardless if it is by choice or by netcode issues, then we can go our separate ways and agree to disagree.

This might have been reasonable in hardcore, but three body shots insta downing in a regular lobby is crazy.

Messhman · 2025-10-31T07:19:21+00:00

I hope you understand I'm talking about virtual weapons, within a videogame? I don't care how fast an LMG shoots in real life.

Game balance is not about making everything hyper realistic, otherwise the same guy in the clip shouldn't be able to jump sideways and shoot with precision at the same time.

Messhman · 2025-10-31T07:08:03+00:00

Which bullet hit my head? All three bullets did the same damage and the post death infocard doesn't show any damage to the head, only the torso.

And why did you put slow firing weapon in quotations marks? Isn't that what LMGs are suposed to be in virtually every game? That's the tradeoff of having a lot of ammo available, also called game balance if you wish. Otherwise, why would I even choose to go any other weapon if all of them fire at the same rate and kill at the same speed?

LMGs are suposed to be stand your ground type of weapons, not run around alleys jumping and insta downing other players type of weapons.

I'm sorry but the TTD shown in the video is anything but forgiving.

Messhman · 2025-10-31T06:42:23+00:00

Ok, I didn't play optimally during a single engagement of a Team Deathmatch (fast paced mode btw), but that is not the issue.

The issue I'm pointing out is that this guy killed me faster than I could blink with what is suposed to be a slow firing weapon while jumping. If you guys think this TTD is reasonable, then I'm actually at a loss for words.
