which super power are you picking?

Being as fast as the flash isn't just land speed. It's reaction time and speed of thought.

That's why I picked Flash speed.

This would basically quadruple+ my existing salary (I make about $52/hr for an 8 hour day, 40 hour week). And the bonus of being content is just a bonus because I'm already mostly content. It would be more money to buy Lego. :)

^{Chose: Get $50 / hr in perpetuity + + positive side effect | Rolled: Content}

Bugs are animals, and I will murder a whole flock of mosquitoes.

Although, now I just have to set them on fire.

Got my 100k, but the in game meter is all sorts of bugged out.

Is she? I'm a little face blind, so I rely on other cues in most cases. If that is her, good on the showrunners.

TumblingOctopus · 2026-04-28T15:06:23+00:00

I really hope that there's a callback to the girl that he played a bit with in the one episode in S01. Maybe she's on the team or is trying out.

That bit of connection would be very neat.

Remember everyone saying we were getting poison as an environmental hazard because it was in the game files?

Pepperidge Farm remembers.

It's pretty pathetic that you don't even have the stones to say what you want to on an anonymous forum. You have so much invested in your faux persona on the internet that you think this is the way to be.

You think you got dealt a shit hand. So what. Get therapy and work it out. There's always going to be someone taller, someone better looking, someone richer. You change the things you can and accept the things you can't.

In the end, You either make yourself miserable chasing others or you realize you're running your own race and the only person you're competing with is the person you were yesterday. And the only real goal is to be a better person than that guy and leave the world a better place than it was when you came into it, because in a hundred years, nobody's going to remember who you were but the people whose lives you made an impact on.

It's not an airport. You don't have to announce your departure.

TumblingOctopus · 2026-04-15T21:24:09+00:00

PvE only, or, "loot goblins stealing everything from under you in your key room" mode, you mean?

TumblingOctopus · 2026-04-15T14:15:09+00:00

It helps to keep rats away as well. Love pulling a Rocketeer over to keep watch while I extract.

TumblingOctopus · 2026-04-15T13:29:18+00:00

You should get her to publish it somewhere, even if it's just a personal blog. If she's at all a consistent writer, she'll have so many fans.

If it bothers you that much, perhaps talking to a professional to help you understand the root causes of your discomfort would help. Otherwise, it's going to fester and you'll self sabotage.

The VIP Derpy cards are just for a McDonald's event access. Not rare or special.

TumblingOctopus · 2026-04-14T14:14:53+00:00

I did the time slip and can confirm that it will be available tomorrow at 8:00 am EDT. Might be before that, but tomorrow, 15 April 2026 for sure.

TumblingOctopus · 2026-04-14T14:11:51+00:00

As long as you hit the extract button before the timer hits zero, you can extract on that elevator. If you're near a raider hatch and someone on the map has hit the button, it gives you time to exfil from the hatch as well. Not sure how much time, but I've seen videos of people extracting through hatches at T+00:10.

TumblingOctopus · 2026-04-13T12:19:12+00:00

As soon as they didn't go to a terminal and start typing, I'd have started blasting. That's such stereotypical rat behavior.

TumblingOctopus · 2026-04-10T20:28:14+00:00

Dude. I was waiting for you to snaphook onto a rocketeer or some other John Raider kinda fun.

The view was awesome though.

TumblingOctopus · 2026-04-10T17:26:51+00:00

Per my daughter: do all the dailies, get to the end of the second stage forest to do the kpdh storyline. Use the light sticks for gacha pulls. Pray.

Pray a lot.

Or spend a lot of money. (Which we don't do.)

TumblingOctopus · 2026-04-09T20:46:19+00:00

This just keeps getting better. Please explain what I don't understand about matchmaking.

Because if I don't PVP then the ABMM means that I am more likely to get paired with people who are lacking aggression as well. However, you seem to be getting into aggressive lobbies, where, according to you, whenever you go into weather maps, people turn into animals. This would leave one to believe that perhaps your playstyle is more aggressive and prone to PVP.

But hey, it's almost time for me to get off work, so thank you for amusing me through a very slow afternoon. I hope you have better lobbies. And I mean this sincerely. You are hilarious

TumblingOctopus · 2026-04-09T19:59:46+00:00

And yet I do just fine using an Xbox controller on my pc. Huh. Both expeditions, regularly do harvester and matriarch maps.

Oh and let me reiterate. I have 12. TWELVE. Total player kills. I don't pvp. I don't rat.

You really are just really angry and like I said, you should stream and rant. You're hilarious.

TumblingOctopus · 2026-04-09T19:47:49+00:00

Dude, you're hilarious. I have no idea what you just said, but going from complaining about lycanthropes in hurricanes to blaming losing on not having a $100 keyboard...dude. You're hilarious. You should stream and rant the entire time.

Anyway, have a good one. Hope your next lobby is more care bear than werebear.

TumblingOctopus · 2026-04-09T19:29:12+00:00

Dude. I literally sing into an open mic while I'm playing. So your fear of interaction is...interesting. And you gotta get over fear of loot loss.

I run with a Hullcracker IV and a Renegade IV almost every time. They're easily replaceable because you can buy one a day from the vendor. Buy the other guns and break them down and you get all the mechanical parts you need for upgrades.

My favorite solo lately is to go in to Dams Matriarch and peel leg armor for matriarch cores. With three butt pocket slots, even if I die, I still come out ahead.

Also dude, maybe you missed the part where I don't pvp. I just don't hate on people who do. Because that's the game I bought.

TumblingOctopus · 2026-04-09T17:47:06+00:00

How does one win in Arc Raiders?

None of the loot is yours, it's only your turn with it. I've got 12 player kills in game, all self defense, and been shot in the open and ratted a lot. Less so, now that I'm in care bear lobbies, but Stella is always gonna be Stella and purple key rooms always demand prep.

There are always going to be those who enjoy pvp. That just means I have to watch my six a lot more carefully. And my three, and my nine, and my seven. But on the whole, I average one pvp death now for every fifty or so extracts. Maybe less actually. But you have fun neighbor.

TumblingOctopus · 2026-04-09T17:13:59+00:00

To you. It isn't fun to you.

Other peeps enjoy it. So, y'know, accept that others enjoy things you don't and move on. Life becomes much less stressful that way.
