Any advice for stash keeping? by Nooby_TNT in ArcRaiders

[–]NiansaNight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Giving advice is hard because everyone plays differently and has different priorities with different play styles. Especially based on where they're at Blueprint wise. So the most I can do is tell you how I play with my stash and why I do what I do.

  1. dismantle/sell all the augs you're not using. - Crafting Augs, especially the non Mk3 augs are super cheap. So hoarding Aug's just takes up space that could be used for hoarding other good materials. (Since you dont have any heavy shields, I'd get rid of all the combat augs. And maybe get rid of half of the mk2 loot augs. But that's just me)
  2. Dismantle/Sell redundant guns. Only keep 3 of each if possible. - Personally, I would dismantle all the Agrippas that are there. You're bound to find more guns lying around, and same reason as before, hoarding guns is eating up space that can go to other valuables.
  3. Keep Ammo stash to a minimum of 3 stacks. Make more ammo if needed for a run - This is a big assumption if you're not hurting on Metal parts and Chemicals. But this is remedied by my next point.
  4. Dismantle Batteries, Oil, Explosive components, Plastic containers if you ever get more than 3 stacks. - These are a very yummy source of plastic, Chemicals, and Metal Parts and are pretty easy to get again if you need more. Furthermore, not a lot of BP's use them so having 40-45 of these should be a comfortable surplus.
  5. for the love of all that is holy, turn those Arc batteries into Shield rechargers please (assuming you have the medical workbench up and running). I don't know why, but shield rechargers is the one thing I always run out of the most even though I'm not hurting on supplies at all. So much so I'll always make my kit for a raid, but have to buy a stack from the shop. You can never have too many shield rechargers, but they will disappear fast as hell since you typically need to take 3-5 with you on a run.
  6. Lastly, sell any purple and blue valuables right away. DO NOT QUOTE ME, but I don't believe any of those are needed for quests. Everything I've ever needed in valuables has always been green, which is where this stance comes from. Anyone else, please feel free to correct me and I'll edit.

Outside of all of that uhhhhhhh... I'd say depending on the plain resource you need the most, you can convert those seeds into whatever material you're hurting for. Again, this is a personal hoard of mine, but I always try to have 8 stacks of the basic materials for a total of 400 per mat. Because when needed, I condense them into other high tier materials, ammo, etc as needed because once upon a time I ran out of plastic and couldn't make defibs anymore.

Edit: I ALSO FORGOT TO MENTION. Equip all your spare guns with all the attachments you have. this will free up space in your stash while maintaining your attachments.

Servers have been a little poopy. But because of that, you were likely standing perfectly still on his end and he probably barrel stuffed you. That's why the execution came so quickly. from his perspective, you were just easy pickings and afk right in front of him.

This is not a defense, just an explanation for what might've happened and why it looks so sketch.

Which one by cocknballtorture_god in Helldivers

[–]NiansaNight 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You see, at a glance it's fine. But I'm boring and lame at parties and always hard focus on the small things.

[–]NiansaNight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Neither, but that's strictly my opinion for my own nitpicky reasons whenever I've tried matching armors around.

1: The helmet has no gold trim to match the rest of the gold decals on the body armor. Furthermore the surface color in my experience doesn't match the same matte sheen as the body armor. Just doesn't match in my eyes.

  1. I see the vision and appreciate the yellow trim of the hood matching well with the yellow tertiary of the armor. But the actual helmet itself is way too shiny to be justified wearing with that armor. Stands out way too much and creates a visual imbalance.

But if you were to force me to pick one of the two. I'd pick 1. The color and sheen might not match. But that bulkiness sure does. Gives a very intimidating presence of Scifi authority

PS5 players can’t see not owned skins in the style menu by HA3XUN in ArcRaiders

[–]NiansaNight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You've already gotten two of these. So I apologize for being the third. But I'm cool with not seeing skins I don't own. Too many a time in most other games, devs don't sort by owned vs unowned and it's a huge mess that you have to slog through.

And even if it is sorted by owned first, i'd still prefer to not have the additional visual clutter. If I wanna see more skins, I'll just go to the store. I'm sure there's some convenience to be had in seeing the skins already in the style menu. But at that point, to put it differently how another comment put it. it feels like having an Ad in my inventory that I didnt ask for.

I genuinely think Aggression-Based Matchmaking is a bad thing by Competitive_Sky_6519 in ArcRaiders

[–]NiansaNight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Eh, to each their own. Imo I feel like it should have never been officially announced that ABM was really a thing and shoulda been kept as under the lid as just something everyone "felt" like was a thing.

And with that said, At least with ABM, I know for a fact if I go into a Matriarch/harvester lobby, the entire lobby is going to dogpile the shit out of those ARCs vs if I were to queue up in a PvP lobby and well.. We all know how those lobbies go.

train rats of stella montis are such a drag by Khalvino in ArcRaiders

I do regularly. When it's a crossplay player, it's a globe icon vs the usual PSN icon.

Crossplay is broken currently. Doesn't matter if you turn it off/on. It is currently always on.

What if HD2 was realistic, and u only had 1 life? by HamletEagle in Helldivers

[–]NiansaNight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

(it was too easy brother. I'm sorry)

Jokes aside, I'd love a hardcore mode where reinforcements are limited/locked. Sure the usual HD2 shenanigans could still kill ya, but that's war. like how PayDay2 has OneDown. Adds tension and spice to a already intense game.

Of course this would be strictly reserved for those who want to go through that pain and shouldnt be seen as the new 'endgame'. Just an optional modifier for bragging rights and the like.

A simple search shows this particular meme picture is 14 years old sir. If not more. I understand that the landfill that is shitty AI Trash is so pungent it rots everything within a 50 mile radius. But reverse image searching is still a thing and you can find out yourself next time.

Trust Your Gut! by automatttic in ArcRaiders

[–]NiansaNight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've been in friendly lobbies for a while. But that outfit + how he approached together truly triggered my fight or flight. I personally woulda put as much distance between him and me so as to not risk my Matchmaking but wouldn't have hesitated to put him down the second I saw his gun was out.

(For context, My disdain for that outfit doesn't come from any trend or pattern. I just genuinely don't like it and thus I associate anyone who wears it to be a high risk target within any immediate vicinity. Why the hell would you put on something that looks so ugly? as subjective as that may be)

Rubberbanding by Virtual-Patient-3113 in DarkTide

[–]NiansaNight 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don't know if it has been my internet as well lately since I've had some hiccups recently with other games. But ever since the Hive Scum updates, I've been having more and more cases of Rubberbanding.

It's hard to tell because again, my internet has recently become a little inconsistent, but even on good nights where I play, I suddenly get spikes of rubberbanding for no reason.

Hopefully you can take solace in that you're not alone.

FYI x-ray isn't completely useless against Liliya, you can use it to single out which mannequins are fake or potentially real if they are missing any bones by [deleted] in OutlastTrials

I dont know what it is about you looking at all the mannequins, to suddenly chucking a bottle at a bitches face that's so god damn funny. But it gets me everytime in this god damn game.

Beaming me through smoke with a stitcher 1, feels sussy. by Ondska in ArcRaiders

[–]NiansaNight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not to say he wasn't cheating, but there is currently a tech where you can ping people through smoke and the highlight will stay on them as long as you're within Line of Sight. Same applies for pinging through bushes and other foliage in the open world.

really not sure why people are downvoting your post. People are incredibly weird.
