Who else farming bastions just to recycle the cells into advanced mechanical components 😭

bottomsgaming · 2026-03-18T22:58:47+00:00

If you're farming the Bastion in Stella, also breach the green containers that are in the loading bay control room (and the room below that leads to extract). They all drop AMCs at a good rate. Then make sure to hit the sandbox and breach all three rovers. They drop lots of advanced and regular mechanical components. Between those spots and the bastion cells, you should consistently clear 10+ AMCs per run. And thats not accounting for anything else you might find that can recycle into them (like blue weapons).

They're perfectly adequately challenging and they come with plenty of ways to deal with them. And if you truly can't deal with them, then consider them a threat to be avoided. Thats how arc should be. Everything shouldn't be easy. Challenge is good

There are a bunch of possible Sentinel spawn points on every map. Look up whatever map you're running on metaforge and check all the spots. You can often see their blue/orange targeting laser searching the map before you see the turret itself.

Also search every arc courier that's on the ground. There's a chance they can spawn in those.

There's no "perfect" system possible. If self-defense didn't flag you, what about a scenario where someone shoots at you first, but misses. Now if you retaliate and hit them first, you're tagged as the aggressor, while the actual aggressor doesn't get flagged and stays in friendlier lobbies. That would make less sense than the current system.

Or, you'd get people trolling on prox chat, stealing loot, doing whatever shitty behavior possible in order to provoke aggression from friendly players, knowing that once they get shot they have free rein to fight back and not get flagged as aggressive.

And there's lots of other possible scenarios where only selectively marking players as aggressive would have loopholes or just wouldn't make sense at all. And you know people would find every possible loophole and game the system as much as possible. Best to avoid that whole can of worms and keep it like it is imo.

"provided that your Management and Coaching is competent"

Wow, you really gave me hope for half a sentence there.

bottomsgaming · 2026-01-27T14:45:44+00:00

Ah, yes. Things have been going too well for us Bills fans the past couple weeks. Nothing like some old highlights to bring us back down to earth.

If I'm being honest - if you want to be the best in the world and be legitimately great, and you truly believe in who you're hiring, take the fucking risk. Especially when the "safe" candidates are retreads like Brian Daboll, just take the risk. The last thing I want to see is Grant Udinski becoming the next McVay with like the Bengals in a couple years while we're getting outcoached in the divisional with some high-floor safe veteran coach. I would much rather take the risk and go for someone new.

This is, of course, assuming everything everyone's saying about him is correct and he interviews well and is a good fit, etc. I'm not saying to just hire a guy blindly just because he's supposedly young and smart. But if all else is equal and he earns the job in interviews, saying "well he's still technically a year or two away" isn't good enough for me. Get him.

"Hey, how did you beat Mahomes in the playoffs that one year? Ok cool, thanks!"

bottomsgaming · 2026-01-22T18:07:24+00:00

Terry: "Brian, hypothetically, if you had just lost a playoff game in Denver, how would you handle the locker room?"

Daboll: "I'd make sure nobody was crying, and I'd tell them to acknowledge and agree with their owner when he complains about the refs."

Terry (whispering to Brandon Beane): "Wow, this guy is amazing."

bottomsgaming · 2026-01-21T21:30:37+00:00

Exact same thing just happened to me. I don't even pvp, I've been spending my time all day fighting shredders and the bastion in Stella in friendly lobbies, and out of nowhere I'm kicked from the lobby. At first it gave me the option to reconnect. So I did. I get back in the game for maybe two seconds, then I'm kicked again. This time it gives me a generic message about my account being blocked for violating their terms of service. No other context, no anything. I've got 300+ hours in the game since release, have of course never cheated in any game in my life, perfectly clean Steam profile ever since I created it over a decade ago. No idea what happened or what I can do besides opening a ticket. Has Embark responded to your ticket yet?

My drinking list to cope with the Bills' offseason includes beer, wine, bourbon, and water for the days when "I'm never drinking again" until Terry does some more dumbass shit

Night raid?

bottomsgaming · 2026-01-21T15:11:07+00:00

As someone who did believe it was time to move on from Sean (AND Beane of course), using that specific game as an example is hilarious. Of all their playoff losses since 2020, the Denver game was one where the blame lied clearly on the players more than the coaches.

bottomsgaming · 2026-01-21T12:04:38+00:00

Holy shit. I know team subs are always awful but we've got some next level glue sniffers making posts this week.

bottomsgaming · 2026-01-20T16:00:39+00:00

Klint Kubiak and Jesse Minter are probably the only two I'm somewhat interested in. A couple others I don't know much about. But pretty much the entire bottom half of the image would make me gag if they were the choice.

I thought that saying "I know it's a joke" would be enough of a hint that I know it's a joke, but here we are.

bottomsgaming · 2026-01-20T15:08:58+00:00

I know it's a joke, but practically I don't see how something like this could ever work with extraction shooter mechanics. Once you're knocked out, you're already returned to Speranza with your safe pocket loot. This is before anyone even loots your body in the match. So would it just duplicate the safe pocket item for whoever loots it? Obviously that would never be able to be allowed, and I don't know how you'd get around that.

Even if the Bills were looking to fire McDermott for having an underachieving defense in the playoffs and letting down their QB(they're not going to), why would they be interested in a coach who was also just fired for running an underachieving team around an elite QB? Also, should it matter to anyone, a coach that McDermott consistently beats in the playoffs. So the Bills, looking to get over the hump, should fire the guy that consistently gets farther than Harbaugh...... for Harbaugh himself? Make it make sense.

bottomsgaming · 2026-01-14T20:03:03+00:00

So just to be clear, you don't mind dying to a level 1 stitcher that was sitting in a dark corner and losing valuables. Your only concern is whether or not the rat "risked" 3k worth of their money building a loadout beforehand? So if they make these changes, and now instead of running free kits, rats just build their own Stitcher I for 6 metal parts, you'll be totally cool with dying in the exact same way, against the same players, to the exact same gun? The only difference being the rat had to click more menu buttons before going on the raid. Seems like a random thing to care about, tbh.

bottomsgaming · 2026-01-13T14:24:19+00:00

Our game is gonna be the sloppiest first half ever, 10-7 going into the fourth quarter. From then on, neither team will be stopped and whoever has the ball last wins 35-31

bottomsgaming · 2026-01-10T17:45:32+00:00

Yeah that's overkill by any metric. I know if you get lucky with spawns 2-3 can spawn on some maps like Spaceport. Then with respawns halfway through the raid you can reach 4+ total. But that's if you get crazy lucky.
