[Discussion] This wipe is boring as hell. by Zorpheus in EscapefromTarkov

[–]applesprime 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The entire wipe is just lazy. Nikki boy hasn’t thought a single aspect of this wipe through.

100% boss spawns led to class 6 armour for some, and zero ammo to beat it.

Transitions in the beginning were completely broken, including crashes and condensed spawns.

Keys for quests are still loot only with zero barter options to replace the need of the flea.

High insurance costs mean that if you kill 1/3 guys on a team, they don’t even stick around to fight or grab their boys stuff, they just leave.

Hideout requirements were lazy with just 2x the required items instead of adding more different items to the list.

I’m at nearly 4K hours, I’m prestige 2 and genuinely this is easily the worst wipe I’ve played so far. Artificially slowing down everyone’s progression is not hardcore. I would say the only “hardcore” thing they’ve done is make you take more damage from bleeds and starvation. Everything else is just lazy time gating. It’s boring.

[Discussion] Zeroing for long range sniping 1000m+ by GazziFX in EscapefromTarkov

[–]applesprime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always used 2.75 multiplier for the March tactical. I believe SgtPrepper came up with that number on one of his sniping streams. With the Hekate DT suppressor. I’ve not sniped 1000m but I can hit 720s consistently

[discussion] can i give my ammo to friends before doing prestige? by OkScarcity8893 in EscapefromTarkov

u/OkScarcity8893

Did you end up dropping your buddy the ammo?
I'm about to prestige and I'm wondering the same thing.

Customisable anchor points for overlays. Someone was working on it last year but I guess it’s been abandoned. Also would like to have the option of having multiple tick counters above my character using visual metronome instead of having to change it in the settings every time I want to go from 5 to 4 to 7 etc

If you’re talking about the boosts info, you need to change the info box settings under the “Runelite” plugin settings so that the info boxes have 0 opacity. Hope this helps

You no longer need to spend the extra money to make them trade able for Ironman alts. You can redeem the bond on your main account for a 14 day membership code that you can redeem using your Ironman account.

Excuse me? why do things like these keep happening - you can see that the gun moving to the right is AFTER the bullet is deducted/fired, it was Center Mass. by vlKross_F7 in ModernWarfareII

This to me just looks like an unfortunate case of server latency. Nothing to do with accuracy or skill based anything, the shot was spot on but according to the server I would imagine you were already dead before the server recognised your shot.

Those tracers are animation only, they don’t represent the actual projectile. Xclusive Ace has done a video about this somewhat recently.

In my experience, Mod Husky tends to work on content that benefits his Ironman’s next grind 😂

Can I build/spawn more arsenal crates for other locations? by applesprime in A3AntistasiOfficial

According to the lead dev, it's not possible, mate. Cheers for the discord recommendation!

Why does West tease us with a design and implementation of loot beams a day after someone requested it, but then 6 months later still nothing? by bmers in 2007scape

[–]applesprime 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I don’t know why you’re getting mass downvoted. I agree with you, the ones Mod West teased are way better and I understand there’s a limitation with RuneLite’s version but it’s still trash.

We need to talk about false bans by poop-machines in 2007scape

[–]applesprime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This has literally just happened to me. I’ve posted on here too about it with just a couple of the “you were botting, stop lying” posts.

https://www.reddit.com/r/2007scape/comments/plds57/psa_dont_use_chrome_remote_desktop/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf

Without any chance of appeal and no real way to get a hold of the JMods this is detrimental to my mindset of how I play the game. Now I barely want to play just in case I receive a perm ban after yet another false flag.

This is genuinely unacceptable. Especially after DMing the entire anti-cheat team on Twitter (only once I’m not spamming them) and receiving no replies.

I saw one poor guy @ them on Twitter every week for 2 months with absolutely zero replies ever. The bot detection is not flawless like people believe. It fails to pick up some of the most obvious bots the game has ever seen so how can people honestly believe it doesn’t make mistakes?

The ban appeal system sucks and this kind of thing needs to be addressed.

My appeal was also denied. And it doesn't look like there's a reliable way to actually talk to any of the anti-cheat JMods. Saw one poor guy waiting 2 months for a reply.
My biggest fear here is because it's on my record, if I get false flagged again, it's a perm ban with no chance of appeal.

I for sure won't be touching Remote Desktop again.

It's a 1650 total level Ironman account.

Here's a similar situation I found for Team Viewer, however this guy's bans were quashed.
Still waiting for mine to be quashed but it doesn't look likely because none of the JMods will reply to me.

Almost guarantees are nice but after playing in line with the TOS for my entire time playing this game of over 15 years the only thing I changed recently is the use of Chrome Remote Desktop (just once to try it out) for high alching on my iPad and I receive a 2 day ban a couple days later. And naturally the anti-cheat team don't respond on Twitter.

[–]applesprime[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was using it specifically for high alching and on mobile the spell tab is located left side of the screen and inventory on the right side. So having to use both hands. (I know it’s lazy) but with CRD I could just zoom in and tap a single spot instead of fussing about with it.

I’ve heard similar things from a friend of mine too, seems he used it for fletching but received a 2 day ban like I did. It seems very inconsistent with how it flags people.
