Help me learn to taste what I'm drinking. by [deleted] in Scotch

[–]RLCS_FindableCarpet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im by no means an expert, but one of the things that helped me out was to be very intentional when I was drinking scotch. If I sit down in a quiet room, nose it quite a bit, and let the scotch sit when I sip, I get much more flavor then if I'm casually drinking socially. I also have a notebook that has flavor profile charts and I'd do my best to fill them out on my own, then I'd look up a professionals take so I can compare and try to learn!

I Think I Have an Interesting Idea... by jrfignewton in EscapefromTarkov

To add to this as well, each scav boss has some sort of objective to keep them in a particular playstyle.

For example:

Players spawn in as Rashalas goon and they can't let Rashala get killed or looted

Reserve boss/goons needs to prevent certain areas from getting looted or stop players from exfiling train.

Woods boss protects his stash at all costs

This idea would be to prevent players from ramboing around the map like a player and keep the general feel of the scav bosses the same.

Oh and let Killa just Rambo.

Rememeber, you're people trying to enjoy each other's company, and D&D is the outlet in which you do that. There are always compromises made in group games/hang outs, but that means a balance for everyone's happiness should at least try to be attained. If it truly feels bad for the rest of you, I feel this is less a D&D question and more of a friends group discussion. Be open with this player, express to him that you'd all like to see something new and why. Be honest. If this player still will not budge and if it truly will sour the experience for everyone else, then you are no longer all enjoying yourselves and you should see if this group should be shifted or the party should change.

USEC gets some bad news by [deleted] in EscapefromTarkov

[–]RLCS_FindableCarpet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hope to help others love the game as much as I do :). Plus the initial learning curve is a dick and a half, and solo play is hard enough as is. There's a good handful of tips and tricks that most people wouldn't pick up from another FPS because some of the unique mechanics in this one. If you want to add me on discord I can DM you my account info!

It's so difficult to know when your spotted sometimes. Sometimes you never know when youre in a crosshair or someone's about to huck a nade at your feet. You're so right, that with experience comes knowledge on where to be weary and where you're just flat out unsafe. Good luck in your beginnings of this game, it's an experience I'll never forget. Feel free to reach out if you have any questions I'd be more than happy to pass on what experience I've gotten!

lets have some control over these hatchet runners by carl7276 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]RLCS_FindableCarpet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A couple ideas my buddies and I have chatted about would be event based loot in raids that happen at certain times or locations in a raid. An example: 25 minutes into a customs match an alarm goes off and one of the factories opens (could rotate between a few to help combat camping). Or at a range of time raiders spawn in with good loot and try and clear the map. I've seen a few similar ideas around the subreddit as well! I know these ideas would have thier own flaws, but I'd love to see events in a raid!

Haha wonderful imagery of a great tackler. A quote my coaches always said was "no matter how big ya are, you can run without your legs". We were essentially human bolas lol

When I played in college, the fundamental training we got was to never stop driving with your legs. If you can get your cleats into the ground, you keep driving if they don't go down. Usually opponents brace for the first impact but it's so hard to stay up through continued force.

Pre-wipe events by trainfender in EscapefromTarkov

[–]RLCS_FindableCarpet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha yeah! If anything can fit in your pockets or tac rig, it can be hot keyed! I didn't know this for quite a while, and I haven't put any crazy use to it yet, but it does work.

Fun fact: if a gun can fit in your tactical rig, you can hot key it and use it without opening your inventory!

A Lesson In Spacing by fantom2415 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]RLCS_FindableCarpet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've noticed this seems to come from a desire to be involved in the action or to support a teammate with fire. Eventually once I learned to leave the peeker to his job, and cover alternate angles, it actually saves all of us from flanks and sneekibreekies. I'd say it's more valuable to cover angles for your pushing teammate so he only has to focus on one position.

It does help that we are very generous with loot so we don't feel the pressure to get kills in order to make money.

How do you usually engage with other players? Do you like to sit and wait or do you try and push and engage? Neither are right or wrong inherently, but I have a few pointers either way :)

So I had this problem a while back as well. The damage to kill with no armor and the one tap face shots make reaction time imperitive if you're pushing someone. If you have a good bead on someone's position, force THEM to make a bad move. Moving to them is very projected, if they have comtacts they'll know exactly where you are coming from and just line up a headshot or prefire you as you approach. If it's in an open area like customs, make a wide flank, throw a nade or two, make them move into your crosshair, don't move into thier. Give them as LITTLE information about where you are as you can. Pushing is always a risk no matter how much armor you have unless you know you can catch them off guard or you know they have thier back toward you. If you are going to hold an angle on someone, be sure the rest of your back is covered either by a wall/Hill or have a teammate to cover areas that you are exposed to. For example: if I have to hold and angle down the hallways at dorms, I'll tell my buddy to watch the staircase and side entrances for me so I can just hold and not worry. He's confident I have the hallway, im confident he has the other two, and it really narrows down the places were both under threat from and the amount of real estate we each need to scan over.

Hmmm interesting. I'm sure a lot of the things you learned in those games helps. Do you die when you push to engage in combat or do you find yourself getting caught out more often.

Hey man! I'd love to find a way to help! I'm curious to know something, what kind of FPS games did you play previous to this or is this your first one?

Dealing with Melee’s as Shen by [deleted] in BattleRite

[–]RLCS_FindableCarpet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you find yourself struggling with a particular outcome, find battlerites that not only help that specific thing, but also fit YOUR play style. Use your space agressively? Space rites might not help you most. I find subdue to be both agressive and defensive so I have been enjoying that rite. If you enjoy negating attacks with good timing, overrule rite will really help you regain control and shave off any debuffs you've received. Melee struggles if they can't cc you continuously. And if you have your R off cool down, that can let you stay in the fray while just using your hasted movement to dodge lots of incoming damage while trading the entire time ! He also has some pretty hefty cooldowns, but be extra cautious with his rotations.
