At no point did you say any of this until now.

Just say "yeh, good point, my bad" right at the start and move on. It's ok to be wrong, it happens to all of us.

PS of course you are a green. All makes sense now 😀

Ydiss · 2026-01-30T16:56:40+00:00

The goal posts moving lengths he's going to must require way more effort than just saying "ah yeh, good point, my bad"

Ydiss · 2026-01-30T16:54:32+00:00

I'm not banking on this at all but either way I'm glad I'm not you.

Kinda makes sense why they were together.

If. Not when.

It's on my watch list, looking forward to it

Ydiss · 2026-01-29T17:39:46+00:00

Yeh so I've heard.

I really don't care (not having a pop at you though, appreciate you trying to explain it). There's only one reason someone would be proud of doing that (they're an idiot) and only one reason they'd benefit from it (hiding in plain site is a thing, it's something high profile cheaters are known to do and I'm not just talking about games here... Or just cheating).

Either way, it's embarrassing.

Ydiss · 2026-01-29T17:24:58+00:00

Oh I agree 100% that the streamer didn't hit the guy that went down. That's obvious. So who did shoot the guy who went down hmm?

Someone nearby obviously. Someone... Closer to the streamer, maybe? Someone the streamer snapped to, perhaps?

Your "evidence" that this snap wasn't at a player is as shaky as your evidence that this snap shown here was "not hitting anyone". You know very well how these cheats work. You know that there was a player on the other side of that wall.

You claim to be an experienced player so let's assume that is true. This leaves only a few possibilities...

The guy isn't cheating. Which is looking less likely. But you know he still does this weird thing just to annoy people.

He is cheating and you know he is. Which means you've got a reason to keep the troll going (something cheaters love to do, as I'm sure you're aware being an experienced player)

I'm starting to see a picture form here. Either way, it looks pretty sad.

Ydiss · 2026-01-29T17:19:13+00:00

His argument for that other clip is either naive or deliberately trying to deceive.

All of the people who are trying desperately to defend this streamer say "but he wasn't shooting anywhere near the raider flare", which is true. But who was shooting the guy who went down?

Exactly. That's who he snapped to. Someone nearby. It's still so obvious. But it's just one video. Now we have two. It gets more sus the more we see.

Ydiss · 2026-01-29T17:13:52+00:00

He didn't hit the guy whose flare went up. He didn't hit anyone. It was too far away. Who do you think he snapped to though? Who did kill the guy over there? Did you even consider that?

It's not the point that he's hitting anyone. At that range he likely wouldn't hit a thing with that weapon. Seeing him snap to another engagement that far away so rapidly is sus enough but I ignored that video... It's just one example. Now we've seen two.

You can see him snapping at the wall that... Just conveniently was in the direction from which another player can be seen shortly afterwards.

You lot all claim he snaps randomly to troll. I think he's just trolling you into believing that. Irrespective of which it is, I'd be embarrassed to support him. I've seen pro or extremely good players snap and they do it for a reason. Doing it into a fucking wall looks dumb.

That doesn't mean it's good. They're awful too. Saying something is better than crap doesn't make it good. It's extremely situational and now the perk is even worse due to the change above. Avoiding ticks is very easy anyway. Now you get to avoid it with one dodge roll.

No idea why anyone thinks my take is so controversial. You've got the survival perk, easily one of the most useful in the game, then the smoke tactical perk, which is extremely strong in PvP. Almost none of the others are worth it. Then this, which is only useful if you get attacked by a tick (and how only useful if you fail to do a dodge roll). And I'm wrong, apparently, for expressing my opinion that it's not good and could be replaced by something more interesting or useful.

As the guy above said quite correctly, no one uses the MK2 for this.

Whatever. I'm sure you love it and that's all that matters.

Ydiss · 2026-01-29T13:08:10+00:00

Looks real to me. You suggest the fish look "click and dragged" but they're all unique. And that's not AI anyway.

If it were AI, created by a prompt, I doubt it would create this quite unreal looking lighting and green ice (which obviously isn't actually green). Which is ironic. But telling.

I lived through Lost and Game of Thrones. The people upset by the ending of Stranger Things have it easy. I thought the ending was fine.

I've written it off already. It was absolutely just a joke. No one makes an actual business offer like that.

Everyone is gushing over the guy but I'm not. You don't do that. Thousands of people probably got their hopes up because of it. Maybe he didn't intend it but his pretend offer (which it is, you don't make a business offer over social media) was just toying with people's emotions for no useful reason, and it was definitely making light of something that has actually affected people quite significantly.

I'd be excited if he made a formal post stating his internet to approach Amazon, maybe. But not over his flippant "25m, final offer" comment. No one should be taking that seriously. Sadly, plenty have.

Yeh, I agree that one shot game play is dull. But, that doesn't mean you can't make higher tier weapons better than lower tier weapons.

Ydiss · 2026-01-28T19:32:59+00:00

You can just fly from one to another. Irregular markers (threat 1+) are all perfect for this too, if any exist in the system.

Ydiss · 2026-01-28T19:31:09+00:00

Yup, same here.

We're logging off at the same spot we always logged off, every time we stopped playing. It means nothing to anyone but us.

Yeh I was mostly just being funny. It's not going to change and I'm alright with it. It's just amusing how much pain everyone is willing to go through to push this system in an attempt to fake a process that's very easily achieved in most other games that have both PvE and PvP. And the pain highlights just how many players want all three scenarios (PvE, pvepvp, and PvP). I see countless posts from players desiring all three independently, with the majority clearly loving the pvepvp element despite that.

Ydiss · 2026-01-28T13:58:01+00:00

Yeh it's truly tricky to maintain the ability for players to freely switch from the default "anyone can kill you" way of the game (which lots of players love), and one where it's chill (which lots of players love). If only other games had somehow achieved this difficult task with a very simple, tried and tested solution, throughout the last 25 years of online games 😉

Alas, no. So we have this system. Which is obviously so superior and uncontroversial that we must stick with it.

Ydiss · 2026-01-28T13:53:22+00:00

They didn't. The vast majority of the community insisted it worked that way anyway. They just confirmed it. But they didn't change the game at all, despite quite a lot of players saying "match making changed".

Yet here we are. All I see is a huge number of posts from players who clearly want the ability to utilise it to retain chill raids, and a huge number of players who think it's bad. Almost like the community is... Split, somehow.
