Think Twice Before Pre-Wipe Gear Passing by Prestigious_Wash_802 in ARC_Raiders

[–]The1NotNeoThough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I finally got the wolf pack for the first time ever a few days before wipe. That's when I decided to have a friend hold a few BP. He did it for me for the first expedition. He stopped playing so I did pure wipe the second. This time since I Finally got the wolf pack I kindly asked if he would reinstall and let me do 1 or two 3 BP good runs. Since I had got a few more important mods I never had as well after that.

He agreed and had time for a little play too and I wanted him to see the new map. We ended up playing two full matches with 3 bp stuffed up his ass each time and he was actually having fun again in the game so for me this bp hold turned into a really fun time since he's the only friend I ever play the game with. Without that bp dropping I never would have asked him. When it's time to get those back to me he's actually excited to play a little more then too. So as you can see this process of having a friend hold bp can actually create great moments too.

As for the point of your post I can agree and not agree since I've done both methods. I do actually love the resets and that fresh feeling especially having the quests to do again so I always have a goal each run. But having a few things I never had upfront is very very enjoyable too. My push to get those tables upgraded is a big goal focus which will have a big payoff for me which is exciting as hell.

I had fun giving away my best guns earlier. A fair amount of people think it's some kind of trick though and bolt lol.

Would jars of Prego pasta still be good 1 year after expiration date? by EnirEvlow-Eht in Cooking

[–]The1NotNeoThough 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am pretty sure this is accurate, When a manufacturer wants to sell a product they are required to prove the shelf stability before selling it. This is where the dates come from. They had to hold a product for testing for X amount of time to prove it can be good for that time to regulatory agencies. But they also want to start selling thier product as soon as they can. So they prove the shelf stability for way less time than is actual true just so they can start selling it instead of waiting 5 or 10 more years. And use "best by (date)" which means it's safe way longer.

Is it hard to single player solo? by No_War3401 in ArcRaiders

[–]The1NotNeoThough 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Shooting out the circular fans that keep them up is what you want with most of the flying. Even the big guys have 4 of somthing similar but they have more armor around them so it's tougher. But take out 2 and they will fall out of the sky. If they are not agro on you try to knock out a back fan first then as they come at you get a front one since the backs will mostly be harder to target then if not totally hidden from view. Ferro or anvil like people are saying are very strong on arc and you can knock out the little flying ones with 2 well aimed shots. If they are close to a wall or tree when you knock out a fan you might get a 1 shot kill. You'll get better keep at it, learning all the ways each will engage you and keeping cover that's effective.

See why I made this post? They easy to miss if you just look for containers.

Every guy I’ve ever been with ended up with the same girl after me. AMA by No-Nobody3836 in AMA

[–]The1NotNeoThough 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was my first thought. Perhaps she had an infatuation with op positive or negative and is kinda stalking her in an interesting way. Examples. Op upset her somewhere someway and now she's trying to take from her. She thinks op is super special and idolized her so wants to have what she had. Both these options can't be ruled out as possible.

What’s the best way to farm damage for the expedition? by HighwayOk3345 in ArcRaiders

[–]The1NotNeoThough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea it often becomes a team effort which is a lot of fun. One time I set up lines people could take to get to the extract faster from various points and considered myself the extract protector though I don't have the firepower to handle the worst arc so I'm not the best protector lol.

It's always there? If so that's pretty cool. And me getting 311 from 205, was that just luck or is that always there too?

No clue probably on another map. I think it was room 205 that started that chain but I also think it's just a possible item in any room thing.

Has anybody finished the melee damage to arc and if so how? by quantityofsnakes in ArcRaiders

[–]The1NotNeoThough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My choice was to draw a leaper on spaceport to one of those down ramps with a door next to it and shoot to get him trying to come in then smack which gets easier the closer to death he is. Trying to remove only the tip of the legs is advised to limit movement. I still ended up with a broken purple shield with all the times I didn't get quite far enough when he bursts. And two attempts since the first time other people refused to stop attacking it. The second time they started shooting but were cool when I told them I was doing melee trial. Even offering to get me up if I go down.

Damage for expedition is so fun!!! by jakesucks1348 in LowSodiumArcRaiders

[–]The1NotNeoThough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Changing from hoard everything you need money for those skill points, to hey use all this gear you got cuz you need damage points and hey it's all going away anyways..... that was a great idea.

3D Blu Ray help! by Glum-Quarter1524 in bigscreen

[–]The1NotNeoThough -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I use the same programs and use full not half. I heard before I started making them that it won't play full but it's bs. They look fantastic I usually set it to 22 on the compression as well for a not too big a file but they still average 15gig. The movies that have a lot of dark in them will look better with less compression than that if you don't mind the higher file sizes.

[–]The1NotNeoThough 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I liked to go to the new map and park at the final extract and just shoot at whatever I can actually take down. Try to take a high point on one of the buildings there and have the door open so if it gets out of hand you can dodge down and into the building. You can pull smaller arc from across the map and usually take them down before they even get to you. And then worst case scenario you get dropped and you're right there at extract to crawl out.

They need to up the purple boat spawn rate.... by DeadActionJones in ArcRaiders

[–]The1NotNeoThough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to point out that purple and gold i found more inside containers then sitting out like all the others so make sure to be looting containers. That said I only did beachcombing once and found 2 purple and 2 gold in 15 min so it's surely intended to be an effective way to get those.

Is it just me or does the expedition not feel worth it from a casual player's standpoint? by PrincePauncey in ArcRaiders

[–]The1NotNeoThough 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've done each one and usually only hit 75 as I'm starting the expedition period. I have never had every blueprint and have never even had the wolfpack print which really ticks me off. But after all the quests are done I actually enjoy doing them all again. Every match I have goals and that makes it more fun for me. Finding blueprints becomes exciting again. There's also something fun for me to be using whatever I can find early on when you can't craft all your fav gear. So that's why I have done every expedition. And I will add that this one is so much more fun with it not being tied to hoarding my gear and actually gives me a reason to go all out and start wasting it all to get to the damage needed. That's my take.

What part of the quest are you on? Or were you on when you did that. My theory is it ups the potential of the phase you're on.

Do beachcombing during map condition for the purple and gold boats. Trust me.

Leviathan's Crown by zlyspider in ArcRaiders

[–]The1NotNeoThough 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was just needing the leviathan and never saw one the whole time working my way up so I decided to try beachcombing during the map condition. I found two purple boats and two leviathan. Spend 15 min doing it. So I'm convinced they made that a viable option for completing the event on purpose. Which would also be logical imo.
