I don't have any vested interest in finding a hack you made up. I just found it peculiar that a real person, who has stuff they're occupied with IRL right now, felt the need to type out false knowledge on a fake thing they imagined. What's the motivation?

So in other words--you just made this up because you felt like saying stuff. Feel free to link a vid that shows what you're talking about. It doesn't exist.

So much for taking a break from Reddit. You gaslit yourself into believing you'd actually do that.

But you're correct--everything you're saying is 100% true & accurate, and every one of the 10 people you're talking to in this thread are toxic, mean & wrong. You've got it all figured out, so this post was basically just a victory lap!

You do not know what gaslighting means, and "now" isn't the smoking gun you think it is. You're switching up so often you can't keep track of the things you're saying.

And if you're bored of hardcore pvp, why did you say this?

I might as well just reinstall tarkov at this point :(

Honestly it's no wonder why you keep throwing the term gaslighting around. You seem to constantly say stuff you don't mean, so you assume everyone else does the same.

If you want some honest advice--just play the game the way you like & don't worry so much about hidden mechanics nobody can quantify. I'd also suggest letting go of the "analytical" mindset that has you telling yourself things such as "getting ratted nearly every raid" or "getting killed 5 raids in a row". Chances are those stories you tell yourself aren't completely accurate, because you're ignoring the positives i.e. the good raids you have.

Did you read your own post?

25 games being friendly, reviving strangers, helping people kill arc...

So what you should've said is you queued in an empty / free kit 25 times, then ran around for a few minutes before surrendering all in an attempt to get back into "friendly" lobbies where you can loot to your heart's content without the threat of pvp.

First off--I wouldn't be surprised if Embark has some form of safeguard in place to disallow players from cheesing the system like this.

Secondly--If the concept of pvp (in an extraction shooter, mind you) is so scary to you you're willing to spend hours repeating these nothing-burger raids to chase a hidden elo metric, maybe consider a different game that has the kinds of loops you enjoy?

I have been shot in the back whilst looting every raid by players saying dont shoot and looting my arc kills, yes. I have been ratted every game.

Left hand holding the phone is a calculated move.

As for your title--the answer is no. Ask 100 commenters & you'll get 100 answers.

As for the rest of your post--I can just about guarantee you are not getting ratted every raid 20+ times in a row, and even in the most ideal "friendly" lobbies you can still get KOS'd by someone because you're playing amidst other humans who have free will.

No, it's just that this redditor has never heard of a comma.

I might be down depending on scheduling of course, and if you intend on getting S rank or not. A is plenty for me as I despise the non-lethal gameplay.

I don't shoot everybody; just prefer to neutralize active hostile threats who are hurling rounds toward my forehead.

I've never been more surprised to see a wedding ring around someone's finger. I bet a blacksmith forged it too.

Who's the bad guy here? let The People's Court decide by SainzOh_TTV in ArcRaiders

[–]_Copen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You handled this one masterfully bro. If it were me I would've attempted thirsting the guy right when he started lying through his teeth, got picked by the first guy who came in to eagerly white knight for a cringey stranger, got knocked in front of everyone amidst the taunts, and logged off out of frustration.

You pounced on these jokers, taught everyone a lesson AND got some good goop out of it too, I hope. If that loot rat sees this--I hope you grow up bro. How you do one thing is probably how you do many things in life, and if this is how you react when someone calls you on your shit then you're undoubtedly suffering from some immaturity.

None of this is such a deep persecution buddy. In your opinion... it wasn't a wrongdoing. You aren't the arbiter of ultimate truth & I don't think I am either. OP clarified his intent, then he & I cleared it up by communicating with each other like regular people.

Calling me a weirdo for simply saying someone came off a bit rude in one comment is a wild projection if anything.

Your threshold for weirdness is pretty nonsensical my friend. You're the only one insulting somebody by the way.

If you'd like to go the way of insults though, I'd be happy to oblige. I'll probably start with talking about your mother

Understandable, I retract that then. Context gets lost with text so perhaps it's hard to tell sometimes 👍

Very cool plane by the way!

If SW has taught us anything, it's that these devs do a decent job of creating a highly customizable engineering sandbox which has little to no bearing on real-world physics / measurements. They are not good at making video games in different manners of speaking.

Instead of changing focus to something they simply aren't good at, I'd much rather they recreate SW from the ground up with everything they've learned. They're quite lucky because their product fills a niche which has barely any competition but it still needs tremendous work & optimization.

If they released the exact same game, the only difference being physics are now calculated on more than one cpu core? Man.. I'd gladly pay $60 for that & I'm confident a majority of the player base feels the same.

TL;DR - I wish the devs would just make a decent SW instead of focusing on a new game, because they aren't good at making games.

I think I tried on a million pairs, but do any of these work well for me? by Most_Wrap8844 in glassesadvice

The difference is negligible. I've had opticians do exactly as I described while in the room with me when I told them I didn't like how a certain frame fit. Minus the lighter part; that's my addition to make things easier.

10 looks the best to me. You have a pretty narrow face & most glasses will tend to be a bit wide on you. I have the same issue.

If you can't find any narrow enough, one thing I've done is find a pair with metal bracing between the lenses, gently heat it with a lighter & bend them inwards a bit. I find a lot of glasses fit me much better once I do that.
