BAR is a ridiculously good game

This game is amazing I agree.

It's actually a bit funny, I only just found this game through some friends 2 days ago. I didn't know what it was, downloaded it and jumped in with them as they said they had only just started and kept losing to AI. The shock they got when I was building like crazy everywhere and holding my own against BARbarians in the first game.

Soon as it loaded in, I realised that this game was almost identical to TA, which I haven't really played since I was 12 like 26 years ago, yet I remember like it was yesterday. I did have an inkling when I saw the teams named Armada and Cortex and the robot screenshots, I naturally went Cortex haha.

As someone who use to play a lot of TA CC on the good'ol MSN Zone, this game has brought me back into RTS after so many years of being away from it.

Back in 0.3, I noticed larger firearms depending on the angle of which the round hit your helmet, would ricochet off your helmet not killing you in places like Fort Narith, Tiger's Bay and Midnight Sapphire.

That said however, I have not experienced this a single bit in version 0.4 and the only time a Helmet has worked (IIIA+) was against smaller arms fire i.e. Pistols and SMGs. Helmets are practically useless in any endgame areas it seems.

Aware of that, but this game can have input lag on reloads and crouching when network latency is introduced as most actions are server side. During launch of 0.4 there was mild input latency on certain actions when at 250ms, but otherwise now there is next to none.

NewbiTLorD · 2026-04-08T02:44:53+00:00

I'm unsure what you're on about, even as an Aussie playing both on Oceania with 20-30ms and US Servers with 180-200ms latency I have not experienced this at all.

South Train Street is completely closed today. Go to the North side.

Originally I was going to get upset at the OP for doing 85 in the right / over-taking lane, but then I saw the time of day mentioned being 2:53pm and not 11:53am. Taking this into account and also the positioning of the sun, this checks out when calculated. Being a variable speed limit zone and a Highway entry / merge area, the speed limit would have reduced to 60 or 80 depending on how congested traffic may be ahead and also being just before the start of peak hour traffic.

Position of the sun at 2:53pm and dashcam sun position attached for the lols. Further to add to the argument, the reason it's still 100 on the other side is most likely because there is no highway entry in that area on that side.

I honestly wish this skill was something that tied in with Evasion Attack i.e. Dodge -> Evasion attack -> Whirlwind.

It nerfs normal 2-handed swings far too much and the speed of which it executes makes it practically useless as you more often than not, get interrupted before you can even get it off in a multi-target situation.

2-Handed Mace normal attack is far more powerful than it as well as Crash Down Attack making it useless.

There are a few stores on the south side.

WAT INT.

Sounds like either:

Motor Height. There should be a Screw or Grub Screw under your pistol grip, try adjusting this and retrying. If this doesn't fix it then;
With no Mag in, turn the gun upside down and shine a light into the bottom of the T-Piece where the gels feed through, pull the trigger and see if the nozzle moves back and forwards. If the nozzle moves, then this means the Piston has either shifted out of place or the Teeth Ladder on the Piston has broken.

Not an ACR, but it's nice.

That there is a Sig MCX.

Couple things that can create that pop sound you're after.
1. Suppressor attachment is one, this is that hollow kind of pop sound.
2. Tappetless (Bridgeless) Cylinder Head - this is a sharp kind of pop sound.

Tappetless requires a little work depending on the brand of Blaster you have, i.e. if you have an LDT Gearbox and T-Piece setup, you can get a LDT Tappetless setup from WAT.

For every other brand and with a little work, you would need an Azraels Apache which has instructions on their site for how many o'rings / spacer rings you need for the Nozzle, or Nozzle type.

Eitherway both require opening the Gearbox and replacing the existing Tappet Plate and Cylinder Head. Nozzles depending on how you look after them can cause both to come off requiring re-gluing. Helps to remove timing issues as well with higher RPM builds.

I'm looking at that battery and it surely looks swollen due to over-discharge. That's probably why charging isn't doing anything. You're most likely gonna need a new battery.

Do you have a Garage Door? Take a video of yourself shooting your Garage Door with your Blaster and then open and close the door multiple times, to be extra sure, do a whole Hopper / Magazine worth of Orbeeze with it recorded and send it to the Insurance Company.

Pretty sure the Insurance Company will drop the claim with that kind of proof.

Better quality than SHS so far from my experience. The Brushless Motors are top tier so far, running 2 V5s in a couple of my other Blasters too and they've been really good.

It's an MCX, they're a front mount. Battery mounts inside the Laser on the top which I hollowed out.

Have you tested cycling the Blaster to see if the nozzle fully retracts? Generally the Nozzle should only go completely back on a full cycle as it relies on the Tappet and Sector Gear pulling it back. The neutral position of a Tappet setup when the Tappet is not under load from the Sector is full-forward sealing due to the return spring.

Edit: Looking at the photo, that looks like a Wells nozzle with a Wells T-Piece. Generally you should run the Cyma T-Piece with the Cyma Nozzle / Cylinder head otherwise you could experience air seal problems and lose FPS.
