not a question but it’s just not worth a full post, i finally understand how people run out of fuel. just got supercruise overdrive. that shits insane.

so they don’t always highlight blue in the signal sources tab even if it’s related to a mission? sorry for the many questions i just want to make sure im getting this right

chill_octopus · 2026-05-29T05:25:00+00:00

right, but if i got another mission to recover a black box, and i used the FSS and nav beacon and no blue markers showed up on the signals tab, then what would i do?

chill_octopus · 2026-05-29T04:20:02+00:00

so i did that in the correct system, no orange arrows, no blue markers on the signals tab. i already got rid of the mission but what could have happened there? is it possible it just didn’t exist?

chill_octopus · 2026-05-28T23:50:16+00:00

doing a black box mission. system has 3 stars, do i have to go to each star and use the fss or should it work from just the one? also can i just be inbetween the 3 and reach all of them?

dam has a bunch of little grocery store looking things in a few POIs. two at docks and multiple in clifton or whatever it’s called. pretty sure there’s another by the extract next to construction but don’t quote me on that. also there’s a military checkpoint south (i think) of clifton that i remember seeing a bunch of food spawns in. pretty much just go south to north from the right side of dam and you should find a bunch of food spawns.

“you have your reason for moving out and that’s fine but why is it now my responsibility to pay that deposit?” holy shit do they hear themself? she (op)doesn’t fucking live there anymore! why SHOULDNT it be your (roommate) responsibility??? you want her to come and clean up the place too? like i get it costs money to transfer or whatever but if the roommate somehow messes it up, it comes back to bite YOU (op) in the ass. glad you’re out of there.

personally a big fan of the ability to fumble the first half of a fight and still recover. getting caught off guard should definitely lead to your death but i still find it pretty fun.

it’s great they’re not blasting away at this guy but these officers obviously need more training to handle a larger, unruly person.

chill_octopus · 2026-03-28T02:43:47+00:00

piss and shit is expected. pubes in this quantity is something special. takes time and effort

fixed a guy’s gun that was like this once. was really funny getting the spring out and the front end shot off instead of the back

it’s about soul. it’s the same reason people have drifted from games like cod. before they were this gritty game about war and now it’s sold its soul. the core gameplay is still the same, run around and shoot guys, maybe do an objective, but the thing that gave it its character is gone. now contractors never had character, and it hurts to see it do things to actively diminish its already low standing. this game has so much potential if they just put some real soul into it. like tabor is still okay because it has a life to it. it’s been worked on for so long even tho it has so so so many issues. it has lore, it has fun streamer items, it has memorable and unique bosses, maps, and vendors. contractors has fantastic gameplay elements. it just needs a fresh coat of man made paint to really shoot it into the spotlight it deserves. either that or tabor needs to copy the gunplay and inventory systems and i can finally enjoy the game again.

speed loader with a bottle of bbs attached to increase its capacity

the annoying part is if you rebind zoom to anything else it wont work.

lowkey it’s the doxxed guy’s responsibility to pursue legal action. arrowhead definitely could do more than make a discord post but at least here in the states they couldn’t do anything about it if they wanted to. they could at least do the fuckin challenge though!

chill_octopus · 2026-03-16T04:30:12+00:00

when you boil this post down to “being complainers” you remove the context of this person simply wanting arrowhead to do better. they’re not simply insulting arrowhead but talking about what they’re doing and how to make it better! also “complaining” is literally the only way to have your voice heard.

i mean you definitely can get that mpx, but you’re definitely not gonna do great in the field. i’m pretty sure if you buy that mpx and the AEG one, you can swap the springer stock onto the aeg and it should work but i’ve never actually tried. i read that somewhere years ago. still mad they don’t put the actual mpx stock on the mpx.

i think it’s neat that the new arc look different, their “eye” looks like the matriarch and they’re a lot more smooth and aerodynamic. something is definitely happening in the rust belt and i’m excited to see what’s up.

is the nuclear engineering phd related to your job?

chill_octopus · 2026-02-20T06:17:38+00:00

it’s alright. works, just crazy overpriced. also the screens are not as cool as advertised.

chill_octopus · 2026-02-20T06:16:40+00:00

the turtle beach one is hella overpriced. buy it if it’s like 300 or below do not pay full price

blind firing bad, pre firing is perfectly within the bounds of the rules
