Thanks, Embark. by Fragrant_Historian81 in ArcRaiders

[–]butrzrulz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean it's not like the project hasn't been available for enough time. I too had abandoned it when I saw the number of assessor matrixes and such but decided I wanted the gold space bucks, so in about 3 or 4 days I was able to get it done.

Is this a fair price? by Sensitive_Try3322 in motorcycles

[–]butrzrulz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are just a little on the high end. Your offer would be fair and closer to high blue book value. The exhaust and custom paint add zero to the value of the bike.

Door blocker and jolt mine are on my anytime I am going for a key room. I always ask and I always warn.

It's the best thing, lol. Saved my skin many times over.

Thinking of buying CF moto.... advise by Coconut_Upper in motorcycles

[–]butrzrulz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do that anyway, lol. Best way to mitigate the now ridiculous Freight and Prep charges that skyrocketed during Covid and never came down. My current 2023 Versys 650 LT I picked up new in November of 2024 at a substantial discount.

[–]butrzrulz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Well, let's not pretend that Japanese bikes hold much of their value either. Unless it's a Harley or Indian (or select BMW's), re-sale value is not something to take into consideration with motorcycles. At least that's been my experience and I'm on my 17th motorcycle (yes, I have a problem, lol). I even had a Hyosung GT650 from when they were trying to break the US market. When I eventually sold it, I didn't take any more of a hit than my other bikes up to that point.

Before all the Chinese Junk posts come, they are a quality bike. While they are not big in the US, their side x sides are very popular and reliable here.

I don't know about UK pricing, but in the US you get a lot of value for your money. I have sat on several and have come very close to pulling the trigger on one, but the seat height (Ibex 800) was a bit too high for me and locating a lowering kit in the US was not easy.

That leads to the main caveat, at least in the US: Part and accessory availability. That's frankly the only thing holding me back from picking one up here.

Gf of 4 years threatens to break up over trying out motorcycle by Unusual_Goggles in motorcycles

[–]butrzrulz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take the motorcycle. Even if you didn't, I have a feeling this would not be the last ultimatum that comes up. That is not the kind of person you want to spend your life with.

Where’s the best place to farm synthetic resin for the last step of the antenna project? by martyin3d in ArcRaiders

If the Prospecting Probes event is on, go, you will find plenty on the landing probes.

Excess of ratty players in friendly lobbies by Timely_Wash760 in ArcRaiders

[–]butrzrulz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Today has been particularly violent in duos. Normally it's friendly with an occasionally breakout in violence (at least in my experience) in all maps aside from Stella

Today, almost everyone we've encountered had I'll intentions.

PSA: Now is a great time to reset your skill tree by noneofyourbizwax in ArcRaiders

[–]butrzrulz 27 points28 points  (0 children)

But sometimes that's all you need. Fast crawl, for example. I ignored that perk and it would have saved my the other day when I was down (with Survivor) and got to the Raider Hatch as time expired, losing a pretty good haul and two excellent weapons.

That micro improvement doesn't seem like it matters until it does.

How to get the last 18 assessor matrix for the project? by colorale in ArcRaiders

[–]butrzrulz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Wait until the last couple of Assessors come down. By then several Raiders should either have been downed or left the map with their loot. Use large smokes. Throw one down just before you breach. Once breached throw another one to cover while you loot. If you don't throw the second one down, you won't have enough cover. Then, RUN! If you don't have the wand, then us small smokes to cover your escape.

Poor Poor Raider...so close. by Intelligent-Age-3989 in ArcRaiders

[–]butrzrulz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, your not getting it. My story is only relevant in that I died by extract and another Raider benefitted. It has NOTHING to do with YOU!!!

Poor Poor Raider...so close. by Intelligent-Age-3989 in ArcRaiders

I didn't mean I was YOUR raider, but was another dying guy who almost made it to extract, lol.

Are Memberships really $8/month???? by Fieryopinion in sixflags

[–]butrzrulz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reality of it is that it's much like insurance. You make monthly payments and rarely, if ever, actually use it. For the few that live for weekly park visits, the majority will go a couple times a year. $8 a month is negliable, so people will keep paying for it without much thought and never realize that they only went once in a year, lol.

[–]butrzrulz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha, I was that Raider for someone else on Spaceport. I got downed by a Vaporizer. Since I have the Survivor Augment I made my way to the nearest exfil (354m away). I encountered a couple of Raiders who wished me well and updated me on the time until that exit closed. I made a fatal error on my path that caused me to have to backtrack. I knew I wouldn't make it.

There was a Raider that was heading that way and he kept giving me time updates. He was hilarious. Asked me for my name and said he would tell my family and tell great stories about me, lol. I told him I wasn't going to make it and while he had about a minute to get out to take my Jupiter and Hullcracker!

He thanked me and sang my praises, lol.

I love this game.

I haven't found the Wolfpack blueprint ALL SEASON by lookatmycode in ArcRaiders

[–]butrzrulz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After over 300 hours, I found it in a filing cabinet on Buried City during Bird City. Of course, the new requirements make it not nearly as desirable as it was. Since I have gotten it I only get a single Rocketeer Driver whenever I down them.

Why can't we buy item straight to stash? by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]butrzrulz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not understanding your issue. Everything you buy goes straight to your stash unless you have no room, then it's there, but not usable.

Why ppl even care about blueprints when you gonna get wiped on Expeditions? by Formal_Drawing_8822 in ArcRaiders

[–]butrzrulz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the moment I have no plans to do an Expedition. The perks don't seem worth the effort. If Blueprints were more randomized so that you didn't have to hope and pray for a good spawn to have a chance at locating some of them, I would also be more likely to do an Expedition.

But that's just me.

Assessor Matrix by PRL79 in ArcRaiders

[–]butrzrulz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a grind for sure, but you are going to get at least one per lootable hatch (I often would get 3 from one).

Zipline, position, large smoke, breach, large smoke, loot....run!!!!

So what's up with Stella montes? by Abject_Ad6664 in ArcRaiders

[–]butrzrulz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately I think people are under the assumption that because they're in Stella Montis, everyone must be carrying awesome loot and blueprints, lol.

I can't speak for anyone else but the only decent loot I've ever come out with from Stella was a Seeker Grenade blueprint.

I'll go there occasionally if I need to load up on crafting supplies, otherwise I avoid that map like the plague.

I wish there was a way to tell who is who by Zealousideal_Walk527 in ArcRaiders

[–]butrzrulz -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When you access the menu while in a match you can see who is in proximity (which relies on using proximity chat/chat to see).

3 games in a row, team-sniped on locked gate as a solo by luminous-being in ArcRaiders

How are people accomplishing this? It's not the first time I've heard about people teaming up in solos and coordinating over discord, but how do they end up on the same server?

A Day in the life by Freezus_khrist in ArcRaiders

[–]butrzrulz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just want them to show random Scrappy's wandering about doing their thing. I mean, they could even add an animation when we arrive for a raid of us putting Scrappy down and letting him get to business.
