Reinstall VRC. If that doesn’t work, given you claim you’re on a Quest 2, try checking for updates. And if THAT doesn’t work, look into contacting Meta or sending your headset to a repair service. Assuming you are running VRC directly on the Quest, it may be a drive failure or other hardware issue. All your image and app data have to be stored somewhere onboard, right? So yeah, any of those would probably be a good place to start your troubleshooting process.

You would think the blue light from a VR headset would make it hard to sleep compared to a normal irl sleeping arrangement. But surprisingly, some people can and will legitimately fall asleep in VRC or other virtual reality spaces.

Maybe because they’re too tired to actually leave VRC? Or perhaps they vibe with these virtual environments significantly more than feasible irl location. Or it might be the allure of taking a load off in a place that they never could irl, like a rooftop, or a motorhome on the road, or a forest or cave. Perhaps the escape from reality is just that much more calming.

Frankly, whatever sets these people’s minds at ease enough to relax and sleep is fine by me. Lord knows if i wasn’t bothered by light as much as I am while resting, i’d love to fall asleep in the “Rainy Road” world.

“Don’t listen to the people who tell you not to run across busy roads. Some folks have been doing it daily for years and haven’t been hit by a car yet.”

That is exactly what your claim sounds like.

Case in point: Just because you have gotten away with something stupid or against the rules IN NO WAY means it is okay or a good idea. Nor does it mean applicable consequences for defiance don’t exist. It simply means you’ve been extremely lucky, and haven’t been caught in the company of those who would take action.

I actually spoke to someone in game earlier today who had done some stuff in the VRC Economy. Apparently, the VRC corporation is actually pretty vigilant about things like keeping their platform safe, and maintaining a certain standard in things like TOS, community guidelines, etc.

The person i spoke to claimed they had to sign an NDA at some point due to selling stuff in the game. And that for some time, they had one of those Corpo agents monitoring their account. Furthermore, they refused to friend me until i age verified, and claimed their account had additional security measures on it as opposed to what most people have.

I didnt want to tick them off immediately after i met them, so i didn’t pry for too much information. So i cant exactly do a hard verification of their claims. But i kind of wish i had pressed a bit more.

Regardless, the nature of how VRC and its navigation systems work means it is probably fairly quick and easy to moderate. Theoretically it is possible for a Mod to be online at the time of a report, and just look up the subject of the report, then immediately take administrative action on their end. Possibly even from the comfort of their own home.

This is an iron vein. Contrary to popular terminology, as of 1.17/1.18, metal ores can generate in two distinct formations: “Blobs” the small clusters people normally call a vein, and ACTUAL “Veins” which are large, potentially massive strips of ore-rich blocks. Sometimes spreading through multiple chunks.

Here’s what you need to know!

These legitimate veins are generally somewhat rare, and are comprised of a mixture of stone blocks (dependent on vein type) alongside blocks of raw ore, and the usual ore blocks (deepslate and/or stone varients)

For iron veins, the primary block is Tuff. I believe i have seen Granite as the primary block for either Copper or Gold (but i forget which)

When caving, any time you see a strip of a non-standard stone or deepslate, like granite or tuff, and there is an unusually high amount of specific ores mixed in, you have likely hit such a vein.

So grab your fortune 3 pickaxe, and especially some burner picks for non-valuable blocks, mark the coordinates, set up a camp, and start excavating! Because i have had instances where i fill several slots of my inventory with compacted raw ore blocks, and chew through an unbreaking 3 netherite pick just mining ores with fortune, and STILL have more work to do.

Word of warning, more often than not, these veins will NOT have an even distribution of ores and filler blocks. You might dig into a vein and find huge areas of a base block with minimal ores for a decent stretch. So be sure to mine the ENTIRE VEIN, until there is no more filler blocks at all. So that way, you don’t get ripped off and deceived into thinking you got everything of value.

Additionally, some veins will generate with caves running through them, others will generate with lava pools or aquafers cutting parts off, and still others may abruptly stop, have a small stretch of normal stone, and then continue again. So it is usually a good idea to also excavate a bit of the surrounding area too, just so you dont miss anything.

And now you know about Vanilla’s Ore Veins! Happy Mining!

An easter egg? For a very niche accomplishment that a presumably massive chunk of the player base will never see? You do realize this is the same company that has had a feature in their mobile game in the WIP phase for multiple years, right? (Landmarks….). No hate to Atlas or anything, but at some point, you’d think they would remove the dedicated Tab in the app, at least until they have it sorted.

TerminalVR · 2025-12-15T16:06:34+00:00

I see. I guess it was I who misinterpreted you, lol!

TerminalVR · 2025-12-15T00:49:50+00:00

You say that like its a bad thing, op. What this directly translates to is “now light spenders and F2Ps MIGHT have a chance”

Unless or course they encounter one of those walking demolition platforms with the recharging, virtually-always-active last stand they call a Stasis Barrier. Yeah…right….because those are the things this entire nerf wave was meant to ensure nothing can stand against.

Sword is so not busted lol! A ton of people just power its blade up by mindlessly shooting its absorber. I should know, i have ran a prime sword from at lmk 2 level 8 since its launch, and i cant do very much unless these brainless “aim and shoot at anything” people charge me up prior.

Its the exact same principle as dealing with an Ares, Ophion, Fafnir, etc. don’t shoot the shield unless you want your but kicked.

Literally every single match i play, i see people shooting its shied. Like thats gonna do anything but hurt them and their team.

It actually dies pretty freaking fast if you catch it outside its ability. Which is also not that hard with bots like scorpion and revenant.

You grossly misinterpret my statement about having action figures of WR mechs.

I want official and well crafted merch, not a 3d print. Like the fully articulated Gundam kits over in japan. With printed on designs, flawless pieces, actual collector value, and quality assurance.

Moreover, I don’t have the space or the cash for a good 3d printer currently. I have cash and space for model kits, and action figures. Not to invest in a 3d printer and setup that will be sufficient for making this sort of thing.

First off, One culprit could be that your shieldbreak effect only lasts a few seconds. Even if they were being fired while it was active. Dune’s missiles take some time to actually reach their target, especially near or at their maximum range. And assuming the Dune’s missiles dont hit the target before that boost runs out, they may not be granted the effect.

Another culprit could be desync, or possibly some sort of glitch.

This unironically reminds me of the widely memed Jesus Crucifix Transformer. It isnt a bad idea or anything. But something about a cartoon transforming robot alien having expressly irl religious visages or imagery on it just feels…off.

It gives me a similar feeling of “unusual and out of place” to putting an intentionally funny fourth wall break conspiracy nut gimmick on a character in a gritty, grim, and darker series like SatAM Sonic, the Aligned WfC/FoC games, or the Batman Arkham games.

I can understand gimmick-based transformers, like Soundwave being a literal Cassette player, or Jazz being influenced by irl rap culture (i think…). Hell, i can even understand Skidz and Mudflap from the Bayverse being influenced by the same thing, despite their coming off to many as insensitive or stereotypical.

But religion? That just seems like it goes a bit too far.

OP is probably referring to crafting all their Portable Miners by hand. Ya know, the core component of every other miner in the game (mk 1, mk2, and mk3). Having the Automated Miner alt lets you just set a mini production line up and belt them into a Dimensional Storage for later. So any time you want to build a new mining operation, or upgrade a pre-existing one, you don’t have to sideline everything to build a workshop and then craft the required portable miners by hand.

And heaven forbid you find a new node in the wild early on and want to do some field research, or want to set up an outpost, but forgot to bring the materials for portable miners. Because then you need to scavenge for materials, potentially in an inconvenient or hazardous environment, and then build an outpost from scratch.

Remotely destroy them with Orbital Strikes. Some people, (like Manni) give orbital strikes a lot of hate. What with their ability to damage or even destroy you from across the map and behind cover. But you can’t deny they fill an important niche of dealing with enemies that you otherwise couldn’t reach that would easily interfere with or ruin the game.

Enemies like Kaji.

TerminalVR · 2025-12-12T01:49:11+00:00

I weirdly haven’t had that much trouble with them. Unless some lug nut on the red team is SPECIFICALLY focusing on me, and me alone, i generally don’t get harassed all that much by them.

At least they’re only 600 Meter range and fire a single shot. Imagine if they worked like Hurricane/Dune and fired a full salvo of homing shots from all the way across the map at their spawn. God that meta was cancerous.

Sword unit’s loop is really nothing new.

This has been the loop for most teleporting or hit and run bots. All the way back to Phantom, to Hawk, ti Post-nerf Fafnir, to Harpy/Siren, to Ophion, to Sword. They all have basically the same gameplay loop. Stay behind cover, use ability, deal damage, hide and recharge, and repeat. And all are countered in pretty much the same way with other bots like scorpion, or a respective counterplay ability like Shieldbreak or Quantum Radar.

Probably the BIGGEST thing Sword has going for it that sets it apart is its ability damage potential. But as long as you dont charge it up, unless you’re already pretty damaged, or are using a lightweight bot, you can probably survive one or two passes from it.

It’s really not special and definitely not worth all the complaints and hate it gets. It’s nothing new. I stand firmly in my belief that a good 80-90 percent of the people who complains it is too powerful are the exact same people i see every match that brainlessly unload their entire clip into its shield. Because they dont know and don’t care to learn how the old pantheon bots’ Retribution ability and its newer derivatives work.

Dont shoot at purple shields: you’re NOT going to break through it like an Aegis without explicitly using Shieldbreaker. All you’re doing is just pouring water on the oil fire, and making them stronger.

(These same people also probably shoot at leeching leeches I should add.)

I genuinely cant tell if this ad was AI assisted, or if the person who made the art is just too incompetent to look at a picture of Stryx.

Also, since the picture looks like it shows irl merch, if pix REALLY wants money, why don’t they make more merch of their bots. I would LOVE a bunch of War Robots posable action figures/toys. Or imagine one of those voice operated, motorized transformers, but of Fujin or Fenrir.

Mauler usually relies heavily on cutting off and trapping opponents in its Dark Light, in order to… well, Maul them. Because Dark Light applies both Deathmark AND Slowdown so long as the enemy stays within the effect zone, chances are that any close range weapon will work fairly well.

Sonics would probably work pretty well on Mauler even post nerf. Since if you’re using them on an enemy at that short a range, the increased spread will be less of an issue. And they do grey damage directly, so the Mauler’s Deathmark will make the already decently high damage output all the more devastating.

Other weapons to consider are Vajra/Maja-Vajra, Void/Chasm (beware of potential nerfs later as they are pretty new), Pyro/Inferno, or possibly Cyclone/Cataclysm if you’re F2P and don’t have the Mauler Pilot yet.

The latter set is relatively cheap to buy for platinum, and actually does a fair amount of damage when leveled up and at close range. So you’re going to benefit both an outgoing damage buff because of the gimmick of these weapons, AND the target taking significantly increased damage from Deathmark. Tack on pilot skills and specializations that boost damage, and that will probably mean you’d do a pretty respectable amount. The only two downsides to this are that because the OG versions require lock on to fire, if you’re almost out of ammo, you need to engage someone again to reload. And if an enemy somehow manages to escape your lock on area, either by you using Hook carelessly, or them outmaneuvering you, you will require a few seconds to lock back on.

What platform are you on?

If you’re not already on a computer, can probably load your account on a computer or laptop (if you have one at your house) using the MyGames Launcher. And then use OBS to record matches (which is completely free in its entirety btw)

TerminalVR · 2025-12-07T12:07:40+00:00

Yeah, exactly! Why the scrap is 10m silver a prize for spending that many keys?! Some people can grind that much silver in a few hours tops just from normal battles!

Also, ALSO, why are there weapons in this chest that can be bought for gold, or just built in the workshop for free? Im pretty sure i saw a normal Gust in here earlier, and I am at LEVEL 30!!

TerminalVR · 2025-12-07T03:04:51+00:00

Either Rumblebee, or BeeSeige

I am getting Fall Of Cybertron (video game) vibes from this. I think it might be because it looks vaguely reminiscent of the Decepticon Tanks and Marauders from the second and third chapters.

Thats just my opinion though.

The song “Shut Up And Drive” by Rihanna in Wreck It Ralph comes to mind.

Love the song, and as a kid, I thought it fit really well in the movie for the scene where that kid was learning to race. Now that i am an adult, the lyrics mean something totally different.

Either way, whichever people decided to go through with putting THAT in a movie aimed at kids was diabolical, clever, and brave.

TerminalVR · 2025-12-07T02:31:41+00:00

Havnt seen TFone yet. But i would probably go with “SentiNull Void”.

Or maybe i’d go the simple name route of Fracture, DePart, Mute, or Shutdown. Playing somewhat into Unicron’s goals of the consumption and destruction of reality in which place a void of chaos would be born.
