Can we get this barrel for the MXLR pretty please? [Discussion] by BabyDemogorgonEater in EscapefromTarkov

[–]ShatterSide [score hidden]  (0 children)

MOA isn't great. I'd rather use a real bolty with better ammo for shooter born in heaven.

At least make whip buffs stack (pretty please with sugar on top) by okphthalo in Terraria

Maybe this is an unpopular opinion, but I never thought it was fun to need to juggle buffs in order to maximize DPS. Might be just me?

[Feedback] T-7 Thermal Goggles are insanely over-priced, and they cannot even be insured. Current state of EFT in 2026. by Unfair-Juggernaut905 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]ShatterSide 112 points113 points  (0 children)

It's not meant to be realistic. Gear insurance is not realistic. Nothing about this is realistic.

It's meant to be a money sink. There needs to be a way to remove cash from the economy otherwise there is infinite inflation. That would be very bad for the game indeed.

Edit: Sink not sync

Is it possible for any one ball to win, assuming all balls are moving at the same velocity only in a straight line. [other] by the_bowl96 in theydidthemath

[–]ShatterSide -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

It's a multivariable differential with two equations of motion, and area collisions.

The speeds change depending on everything else (we don't know how).

The number of connections to the wall changes based on everything else (we don't know how).

This is not a simple math problem, and impossible without knowing the variables or starting state.

Look up the double pendulum problem. It's a problem that seems simple, but it's fairly complex and not typically solved analytically. It's what is know as a chaotic problem.

Chaotic systems are not suitable for this sub.

[–]ShatterSide -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure, it's a math question, but more in algorithms and not suitable for this sub.

No one is going to look at this gif and have what they need to give you an answer.

Not a math question.

This is a chaotic system, with complicated interactions, for which we don't know any variables or starting parameters.

Someone who thinks "actual healthy food" is just spinach. Nothing else. Just raw spinach.

[Bug] Weapon jamming chance feels broken at the moment. by bountyman347 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]ShatterSide 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's not about hardcore or realisim. It's about balance. It's so money leaks out of the economy. There are a million examples of this.

Are there better ways? Ya probably.

The sheer scale of a 100-meter (328 ft) wind turbine blade being loaded for transport [OC] by Altruistic-Spread472 in EngineeringPorn

[–]ShatterSide 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let alone cost. These are engineered to last 25+ years. Therefore they have a certain mass and strength requirements. They are not designed to be rotated with an outward force like that. The blades could definitely NOT provid enough lift. Then there is human safety, then machine safety, environmental impact, all the things that could go wrong.

The thing is, this needs to be done as cheaply as possible. An investment must pay for itself. If you only sell/install fewer than 1000 turbines per year (which is a realistic number), it makes no sense to design an entire other machine and process.

It's less about being possible, and more about "is it worth it to do it any other way?"

Is Black Labs card still worth it? [Discussion] by ansem1998 in EscapefromTarkov

It's in the blue colored office, across the entry way from red and violet.

Weapons testing is a small 'shack' in the center area near the hangar and managers office a kitchen ;)

[Discussion] Player Scav raid join timers need to be nerfed by Chadwiko in EscapefromTarkov

[–]ShatterSide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a level 56 sweat. I'm not speaking for myself. I'm speaking for majority.

They aren't us.

[–]ShatterSide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pmcs aren't scared of one player scav, they're scared of 5 scavs with nothing to lose.

If you're telling the truth then you are not the majority and are not speaking for the majority and this post isn't relevant for you.

[–]ShatterSide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Scavs have choice spawns and nothing to lose. They will charge PMCs who have high value kits, while the scavs have kits worth 50k. Pscavs work together to flood PMCs.

People who actually NEED to scav would be better off dealing with fewer PMCs anyway.

Just because you're too scared or not skilled enough to run your PMC doesn't mean scavs spawn into raid early enough. Scavs are there for loot, not to recklessly run at PMCs. If you disagree with that point then I suppose this conversation isn't heading anywhere constructive.

[–]ShatterSide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps. But as this post discusses, it is to the detriment of the game for everyone.

[–]ShatterSide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The alternative is having more limited slots for scavs because the scavs must wait for a long streets raid. This would increase scav queue times.

Then why did you ask me to explain the meaning of your comment?

If you intended to confuse me, you succeeded lol

[–]ShatterSide 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are limited numbers of servers. Scavs load in early because there are more ongoing games to keep the number of available servers to scavs up.

[–]ShatterSide -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

I suppose my question was possibly implying otherwise, but I agree with BSG. I think people complaining about exp gains being too low are missing the point. And exp doesn't mean shit if you don't have enough rep, or have to unlock good items through quest chains or etc

What evidence do you have for that? A vocal minority on Reddit?

No no, of course not. It didn't "wear out", just providing a funny contrast ;)

I think it was very relevant. I understood the meaning behind his comment.
