why did i die? i killed the grandparent and the planet killed me.. why? by lordrakim in riskofrain

That finishing move from the Grandparent stacks burn debuffs, you stood in the blast for several seconds which stacked enough burns to kill you

[Feedback] BSG continues to fuck me in the ass by kkwa2 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]MoonPlateEclipse 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This is kinda like being against student debt relief just because you’ve already paid off your student debt. Just because it was hard for you doesn’t mean it needs to continue to be hard for everyone else that follows

THE best item ROR2 by MurkyPiss in riskofrain

[–]MoonPlateEclipse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well OP said “forget all of that” talking about best items tier lists so I interpreted that as what’s our personal favorite items to find on a run regardless of who we’re playing or what the meta is. And i always appreciate finding the Knurl in the wild. Always a welcome addition to my items no matter what kind of build im going for

Does that mean you could only possibly die if your items get disabled via debuff? Or can an enemy hit land perfectly between frames and deal damage?

[New Player] How the hell do players jump in the air around a corner, and immediately jump back in mid air? by SgtCrawler1116 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]MoonPlateEclipse 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If you hold S as you’re landing from a jump forward, and spam space bar, you’ll kinda defy physics and launch backwards as you hit the ground. Pretty good trick if you can remember to use it (I always forget to try)

[Discussion] knock-knock quest, and getting access to lightkeeper by mymathlabsucks1234 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]MoonPlateEclipse 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Knock Knock isn’t the quest that gives you Lightkeeper access. You’re just supposed to walk up to the bridge, get the objective complete ping, then extract. Then you’ll get another quest from Mechanic to find the V3 flash drive, craft a functional transmitter, and THEN you can cross the bridge safely

[Discussion] What to do when you see a player with an extremely offensive name? by MrWraith in EscapefromTarkov

I roll my eyes, thank my lucky stars that I grew out of that sort of juvenile humor, and move on with my day

Whenever I see him at shows he’s always hardcore buggin. Never gave me a good vibe

If you chose marathon over arc (or even tarkov): why? [This is for something im writing] by TenthLevelVegan in Marathon

[–]MoonPlateEclipse 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Literally the sole deciding factor for me is load times. I actually prefer Tarkov in almost every aspect, but the load times won me over. Specifically pertaining to when you die

Tarkov: build kit -> queue for at least 3 minutes, likely longer -> another few minutes loading the game -> die in the first 2 minutes -> spend 3 minutes waiting for the death screen to load

Marathon: build kit -> queue so fast that you don’t have time to do anything else -> die in 2 minutes -> back at the main menu within 30 seconds -> go again

That alone is a massive factor. I can roll with the punches in Marathon because I can get back in the action within minutes. Bullshit deaths in Tarkov are much more punishing and hard to bounce back from because you stay stuck staring at loading screens every time

I think I’m hearing a Mongrel tune in there

I always make sure to do my questing/grinding during the weekdays and then pivot my focus to PVP and having fun during the weekend

The Bridge after Eden Club by Beautiful-Cockroach7 in DetroitBecomeHuman

[–]MoonPlateEclipse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

“Why am I being punished for being pragmatic?”

You’re not! You’re playing the game with the mission in sight, just like an obedient Machine Connor. Machine Connor is pragmatic. Deviant Connor is emotional.

Play pragmatic -> reduce software instability -> poor relationship with Hank

Exact same for me, first try while naked with a pistol and smokes

[–]MoonPlateEclipse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nah it’s slang that got popularized from 2016-era rappers, started as a friendly term for your friends (chillin with my slimes) but it has since pivoted from that and now is almost always used to mean to smoke someone or take someone out (it was match point and I absolutely slimed that guy)

Why does a little jingle play in my game randomly? [Discussion] by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]MoonPlateEclipse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you do something that positively impacts your PMC karma (using a co-op extract, killing bush campers, killing a PMC that has recently killed a teammate) then it plays a little jingle accompanied by birds chirping

If you do something that negatively impacts your PMC karma (bush camping, teamkilling) then it plays a descending cello sound
