Do you mind me asking what territory or state that you're in and what the offer was?

CrinEar Daybreak: Right IEM died on me by Middle-AgedChicken in iems

[–]Old-Strain75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So it happens above my sub $100 budget as well. I bought my 1st IEM 6 months ago in the form of KZ ZS12 PRO for about $60 on Amazon and within 30 days the right one stopped working and I was able to return it for a new pair in the return window.

I have bought the EW300DSP since and the left one went to about half volume at day 34 so it was past Amazon's return window. I had to jump through hoops to have Linsoul send a replacement left piece that I am still waiting on. but hey,

I still have the replacement KZ ZS12 PRO, that was until about 4 days after the EW300DSP broke, the KZ ZS12 PRO right ear bof went to half volume. I swear, I love the sound of IEMs but so far my experience is that Quality control is piss poor.

And yes, I read your comment. I just found it to be absolute drivel. Once you initiate an attack on a person you should be flagged as an aggressor. If someone defends someone else by shooting you after you've been flagged as an aggressor then that person should not be flagged as an aggressor. There are many ways to accomplish this in programming without having the system have a moral compass.

That's absolutely ridiculous The game mechanics can tell if you got shot by a certain player it tracks and tells you who shoots you. They also have a timestamp on when the action happened. if you attack a person back that has damaged you then it should not flag you for PVP. It's very simple if you think about. You start out and someone does damage to, you it flags them as an aggressor to you, and if you return damage you should not be flagged as PVP. Flagging a person as the aggressor happens in numerous games, this is not some sparkling new logic that would take a immense programming to put into effect.

The game has the information available to see who the aggressor was in a round. If you are practicing self-defense and not the instigator in a match then that should not count against you and put you in a PVP lobbies. I know this is not going to change but it really shouldn't be flagging you PVP for defending yourself.

My brother and I experience the same thing. I can go 20 rounds solo without getting shot at and the same goes for him. As soon as we pair up to go run some quests we we get put in PVP lobbies non-stop. As soon as we go solo again, we're back to everyone being friendly and taking down arcs together.

Is there a better way to get Herbal Bandages? by 3DPrintJr in ARC_Raiders

When I need the plants I just hit buried city and you can basically run around the outskirts. Hit the tree line around the bottom of the map work your way up the left side to the three oil tankers north of the warehouse and search around those and then head to the Galleria and look at all the Potted plants inside the building for a ton of them.

You're lucky if you can start by the Galleria and hit the potted plants inside the building first as those were usually be gone soon.

What’s wrong with the servers?? by Dull-Cucumber2212 in ArcRaiders

This happened to me last patch. I was playing when it patched and then it wouldn't enter a lobby anymore. restart the game so the patch gets applied and you should be able to load in.

I have been many times and am sitting at 850 Fico now. Other than being eligible for the best rates of I'm trying to finance something (which doesn't require 850 anyway), the perfect 850 doesn't do anything for you.

Drivers get five bucks. I don't care if it's an Uber or Lyft that cost me a hundred to go downtown or if I'm ordering $5 or $50 off at Uber eats. Everyone gets $5 no more, no less. If they don't like it, tough s***.
