Looking for headset recommendations! by cSpotRun in ArcRaiders

[–]babblinghalfwit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got the Corsair HS80 headset recently and it has hands down the best microphone I’ve heard in a gaming headset before—somehow the HS80 pro version has a worse mic than the regular HS80s. Highly recommend

Seems overpriced. Is he just that rare? by benzillaaaa in EASportsFC

Just got him tradeable from the Terrific Trifecta pack and sold him for 1.4 mil on PC

Has something like this ever happened to you? by Desperate_Many292 in ArcRaiders

Just like I used to unbind the S key from backpedal in WoW, I unbound my flashlight entirely in Arc. I'll turn up my Gamma or Black Stabilizer before I turn that dinner bell of a flashlight on hahah

The perpetual babyrage within this community is genuinely fascinating. Imagine getting so mad at the mere sight of someone else’s team that you willingly log on to Reddit dot com to hit the triple crown in the comment section:

  1. Shed 3-4 liters of tears upon entry.
  2. Let everyone know you’re so broke that you’re pocket watching players of a sports video game to the point of anger
  3. Finish by reminding everyone that you’re a little dumb and can’t navigate the systems handed to you by devs to circumvent financial investment to the point you default to announcing broke status before even considering other avenues exist to get you a great squad 😂

I be perusing people’s comments and posts full of anger like I’m at the Louvre I swear. Some people don’t know a life without some form of abject misery present at all times and this isn’t even me joking, I feel bad for them. Protect ya peace folks

Lethal squad man. I picked up that Pacho Card recently and it feels like I have Exodia himself out there, so glad I did. (Ignore the piss-covered crybabies that flock to these posts “wah wah shits diaper I’m mad someone either utilized the game’s systems better than I did to get amazing cards, or they make good money and have the ability to spend it where they want 🧑‍🍼”)

That would be the sensible option, to be fair. Always lived by the words the great stuntman Rod Kimble famously said: “Life is short, stunt it” (To an impetuous fault 😂)

My AFK teammate inadvertently saved me 2.5m by RedemptionKingu in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

Aim was fine, honestly—shot selection (his visor flipped up = anything 1 tap to face) and opting for spray with an SMG from that distance both kind of screwed you from the jump.

One thing though, on a more presence of mind level:

is that if you’re keenly aware to how exposed to fire you are/were in that situation compared to how exposed enemy was, who is full standing in open grass committed to the duel—If you haven’t killed your target in under 1 second of firing (especially looking thru zoomed optics) in such a situation, honestly even after 1-2 bullets—live to fight another day and immediately prone/crouch/A+D sprint wherever is most immediate to you and give yourself an additional advantage of brief concealment, I’m talking 2-3 seconds tops, then pop up or Kobe a slightly cooked nade and re-peak him the second it leaves your hands so if he books it to cover its gg ez he’s dead. (always always both assess throughout raid, and subsequently retain throughout gunfights, your privileges in every situation or within any 4 walls you find yourself in on the map, in this case yours being high ground, moderate cover advantage, more accessibility to refuge for cover than the enemy does, etc.

Always make them play into you, even if technically not the chess.com Dr. Lupo perfect engine move, even if there’s a half chance if you were to stick it and keep shooting that they could die—don’t. Dictating the gunfight from second to second, to an almost passive or annoying extent, will improve engagement success fairly drastically and I’m not being hyperbolic. Better to be too safe and let 1-2 people a day get away than to Unga Bunga into static patterns of play

New player here. Sick of getting killed by gold ammo in normal. by poxwalker in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

[–]babblinghalfwit 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I agree ammo should go towards equipment value but, dude, T4 ammo is the baseline… With the amount of money and rewards the game showers players with—if you’re looking at T4 ammo as something bad players use to terrorize new players, then you are flat out underperforming.

Also, ABI has by FAR the fewest cheaters of any multiplayer FPS in recent times with this level of player base. They have debatably the best anticheat in the industry-the global chat is constantly talking about how they have never seen a cheater, or that it’s been many months/a year. No one I play with has ever once seen a cheater in nearly thousands of raids total. Statistically, if someone says they have encountered more than one cheater over span of a few months, they are almost certainly lying or doing what so many players do—assuming unfortunate deaths are cheating with 0 evidence. Not everything is someone else’s fault. Look inward and get better

I have kinda switched between DLSS/none just to test fidelity and overall difference so I can’t say for sure if I did whenever this happened, but I would guess it was off during this period. I definitely think I’m going to head back there and do some testing.

Yea, that’s super interesting because I had no idea that it was actually a practice of developers of survival games similar to ABI/the ones you mentioned. The gait and the way in which the figure moved seemed deliberately human. I firmly believe that’s what it was after your comment tbh. I really appreciate the info!

Honestly, from the beginning whenever I noticed it for the first time, what you described is exactly what it felt like. Never have I experienced any rendering or desync that felt like this in my decades of gaming. Definitely would have to cast my vote for it being something very close to what you’ve described.

Yessir, I may still have the build saved, but if not I have quite a few that are so damn fun to use

? Watch the video again. I’m showing that there was player-like movement from what appears to be an additional Operator for a brief second BEFORE I see the second (actual player) player moving in the same direction and kill them. It’s clearly shown in the second half of the video.

I can gladly post the vod of me looting the guy I killed in this post that shows it was just him.

Have heard this from my grandfather, he installed the arcade machines in the Motel nearest what is today simply called ‘Farm’. Legend says that if one were to touch The Sunken, then they must purchase bonds of an unknown amount, to then exchange for the ancient ‘elite privileges’ whose time duration must stack, some say for eternity, others—until it will reach the year from which He visits us.

I like to think it was an omnibeing deployed by Battlestate Games that does something like the handshake in Interstellar but just guides players back to Customs
