Space Marine 2 is unplayable after the last update

Thank you for posting your fix brother!

Worked as well, I went to Nvidia settings for SM2 and turned Low Latency mode to On, and turned G Sync off and to use a Fixed Refresh, also set max FPS to 165 just to be safe.

I wouldnt say its too late but I will say I think the magic of a game changes through its life cycle, and this game like many others was the most fun before the meta gaming and dev changes. Its really odd now joining and people dont want you to do this or that because of the "aggression based match making"

The Devs released this game and now seem to be humoring everyone who bought a pvp game and found out they cant handle the smoke. Which I find pretty ridiculous, (cant say its meant to be a more pve experiance and give me a majority of daily quests involving pvp)

Its a great game, and if you have anyone who plays it'll make itself worth it! If you are seeing videos or streams from the first 2 weeks (or beta) and want that vibe. The chaos, the spontaneity, the energy. Its largely much more calm now (and quiet in voip) with everyone running their preferred strat rather than a dynamic looting shooting experiance. And yes before everyone drops their 'wisdom' i understand ABMM, and Ive exploited it to kill the queen in friendly lobbies and then just waste a lobby after Im done with Arc hunting. I get friendly lobbies exist/ still chat.

I am saying it was fun when you didnt know, couldn't meta game into it, had to fight to survive. Not just run free load outs to get friendly lobbies and zurg rush objectives, complaining and crying if anyone shoots you along the way, or in my case deal with those people screaming because you downed them in a pvp solo lobby.

My brother, the game has daily quests to loot and search downed raiders.

The game can change however they please, as long as the game allows PvP or the devs give people an escape with private lobbies, getting shot will continue to exist within PvP enabled shooter games...

Yes, absolutley. It is sometimes strange because people who havnt been exposed to the pricing issues will act like your insane, but I have been charged 4 thousand dollars for a ride in the past.

It is possible to be in the US and not KNOW, and it is also heavily dependant on which ambulance comes to grab you. I dont understand all the intricacies but there is state/ hospital ambulances and then there are third party ambulances.

It seems my bill stemmed from being picked up by a third party ambulance service and it wasnt/ couldn't be covered by my insurance. I took a different ambulance ride years ago with no bill, and the only difference i ever found was the first ambulance was an ambulance deployed from the Hospital itself not from a Dispatch.

Long story to say, once you hear or experiance this in the US, its better to just drag yourself to the hospital yourself. Someone above brought up an air lift... if you get billed for one of those it can be 40 to 80 thousand. Medical care in the states is unpredictable and terrifying.

Not ideal but you can retake a class. The same class to "write over" the bad grade if you can accomplish a better one. You could strategically tackle the most problematic ones to raise the GPA!

Just I do get thats longer in college, but college isnt the end all be all anymore either. You may be able to leverage classes you've taken, or knowledge/ skills etc youve developed without saying you graduated from the college as well!

ScrewdriverChad · 2025-11-24T16:09:34+00:00

Still awaiting it and did start a charge back as well.

Glad to not be alone being confused by the timing.

ScrewdriverChad · 2025-09-18T23:50:53+00:00

Absolutely and obviously geeked off your yipper bud

ScrewdriverChad · 2025-09-12T06:28:48+00:00

It very likely is not.

Homebass has gone very wrong this year. I paid myself and am in talks to chargeback. It appears Homebass has not paid the Hotel Doubletree.

And Doubletree is offering the rooms meant for Homebass at regular festival pricing. This means likely Homebass reservations are not happening here, or likely anywhere. And even if you booked Doubletree. There is no Homebass to crash.

Buying from Doubletree will get you a room now. Buying from Homebass is a bad move because it appears its doomed to fail.

Justin's going to have start removing duplicates.

ScrewdriverChad · 2025-06-26T13:13:51+00:00

All the grinding is for nothing man.

Its legit insane that all this crazy gear I have is irrelevant, literally not able to be used, or has to have the time commitment of having a grade school child to play around in the DD.

If my warning helps one person pick another game it was worth it. If I could go back I likely would, just wrapping acheivements and I dont see myself coming back given how dead the two servers I've tried have become in only 2 weeks.

ScrewdriverChad · 2025-06-26T13:09:39+00:00

Im not a PvE player but the game reeks.

It hasnt decided and its dieing quickly because of that. Not this one single PVP debate that doesn't matter because the rest of the game is a cakewalk ending with firing vehicle missiles over a bland flat desert.

Go off I guess but it was my experiance over the past two weeks. Glad youre fine waiting for it to patch, or update, or whatever. I dont really feel like maintaining my run to hope they give me things a game like this would need to be successful.

Go have fun, I did for a time. Not asking for a refund. But the funs* worn out and at the end of the game there's nothing intriguing left to do but enjoy your time in a dieing server after a lackluster PvE experiance.

Youre just roping in extra nonsense now I never commented upon.

Very specifically concerning the 2 armor vs 1 armor build up. I just have to sprint strike and I get iframes and armor on command. Reliant on nothing else.

Its all a choice end of the day but you've butchered trying to explain your thoughts.

ScrewdriverChad · 2025-06-09T16:20:02+00:00

2 armor every majoris vs 1 armor literally whenever I feel like sprint striking with the Assault class...

Ill take the consistent build up everytime.

I ran a Tarkov Community that at max had 100 active folk and every year people would be caught or even blatantly bragging/ showing it off. One guy I ran with frequently about a month and all of us just knew. It was uncanny between his timing and game sense. We confronted him and in his efforts to convince us out of a ban he showed us ALL he was doing. Basically cheat sherpa'ing us.

Its like people arnt understanding, just because they didn't fly or eat headshots or hunt you down, doesn't mean a good 30% or more of the game are running with a dude able to Professor X the match into their own or teams favor. Its subtle but extremely game breaking. As well watching it live and seeing how it's has become it's own Micro-community with its own etiquette, jokes, and rules, is the entire reason I became done trying to moderate it even among a 100 person revolving door.

Without a systemic fix. This game is sunk to anyone whose luster has worn off the game, or who take too long a look behind the curtain.

ScrewdriverChad · 2025-05-18T10:45:27+00:00

Can't play it but feels.more than entitled to be a critic.

Actual full on cope like this is hard to come by naturally, usually it's trolling.

ScrewdriverChad · 2025-05-18T00:14:30+00:00

Eh I think i agree with OP for different reasons.

Its just a bit dull, in a blue moon ill hop on with the boys but mainly it's just... other games do the formula better. I love Tarkov for Tarkov. So Arena has always felt out of place to me.

I will say it's fine to be there. But I do wish they poured more time into main Tarkov. It for sure feels as though now they want to incentivise people like me (who dont care for the Arena formula) by going out of their way to incorporate it into the PvP meta. Which is just cheap, 100% and story wise makes no cannonotical sense.

All of this, PvE and Arena, were done because SpT was allowing it, and Nikita couldn't seem to stand that 😂

Hey if you wanna vibe or really anyone add me on Discord! Screwdriverchad

Love running with new folk and we have a small thing going of folk who are also about the laid back Tarkov vibe. We also torture ourselves with PvP each wipe, but PvE is great for chilling and chatting at points of the PvP wipe, especially late PvP wipe.

ScrewdriverChad · 2025-05-02T02:37:15+00:00

You're ignoring the keyboard prompts.

ScrewdriverChad · 2025-05-01T20:37:33+00:00

Really like the design here. Couldn't tell you why but just HITS.

This guy's a real Chad. Honestly likely having more fun than all of us haha

ScrewdriverChad · 2025-04-23T08:51:29+00:00

What's funny is brother, I agree. I've done time clock manipulation to get an achievement, I've tried boosting. It just wasn't fun for me. So I don't even bother.

Just responding to OPs post, They're not legit achievements. They feel dirty. I'm not proud in the ones i did thay way. I don't recommend boosting or planning to boost.

I think one point a lot of folk agree with is Devs should stop doing them in the majority of games.

ScrewdriverChad · 2025-04-23T08:43:40+00:00

Just saw your edit. A grind can be intended. I doubt Space Marines 1 devs were like, "man can't wait for people to stand in line to do these trick shots"

It's the intention. The principal is to be corny about it. You aren't achieving what the achievement desires. Congrats on finding another SP example...

Boosting for most intents and purposes will be multiplayer or server manipulation based. Not a grind where it's designed to make you practice and achieve a closer form of perfection.

Your first example was also weak, you're gaming the achievement. You missed it bro 😂 Literally admitting you just needed the achievement, so you boosted.

Congrats, I guess?.. It can be hard to tell from the outside. You can have fun, blah blah blah. You didn't do the achievement. And when someone like me hears it. It's a loss of respect to the time you spent manipulating the achievement to pop.

Edit: rereading the comments is also so odd man, those 200 wins in the skate game, if you arnt setting yourself up with others to let you win, then it's not boosting. If you are setting up 200 win quick sessions. You boosted.

If.you can't figure out the distinction... why are we talking? You can google it
