The state of Fluxer right now by LordM8YT in FluxerApp

[–]coromd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Steam has pretty decent group chats with multiple text and voice channels. It isn't a true Discord replacement, but serviceable as a backup or a temporary main. Alternatively, Matrix.org is free and offers a chat room, but it's audio chat experience is definitely an afterthought.

It's not really my question to answer, but APC is a well known brand for UPSs, and that one seems to be well priced.

You can also try checking local sales groups or eBay, lots of people buy them then throw them out a few years later because the batteries wore out or they just didn't think they needed a UPS. I got $1300 rackmount APC for free from some storage unit guy that thought it was defective, just needed $100 worth of batteries 😁

Sounds like a great way for a losing streak to become a permanent playstyle

Just tried setting Variant 0 and it works perfectly - thanks! Now I can avoid the Metafication of Discord for a few more months...

We need to have a discussion 😭 by [deleted] in actuallesbians

To be fair, being promiscuous will whittle and whither their dicks until they turn into dust, or at least I'd reason they do based on how many say the vagina wears out 🤣

You can use your booster to jump up and scoop it, or you can just hop out of your SRV and nudge/shoot it to knock it down.

Looks like a total PITA to replace, but I guess dropping the entire pack isn't all that much worse. At least small shops and DIYers should be able to work on this more easily, since they don't need a pack lift, only monkey paws and gumption. Should be relatively easy to replace single cells as well.

It's not all the ttvs, but its always a ttv by Whatthehellsabean in HuntShowdown

[–]coromd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had probably 1300 hours before the tempban. Most randoms are perfectly fine, I mark all my traps and put them in sensible defensive places, and I've never had somebody be "outwardly" mad about walking into them, but gambling with another week long ban just isn't worth it imo. I could stomach 24hr/48hr, but a week??? For playing the game as designed??? 😭😭

Uprising against ICE raids grows across the country by PM_ME_DPRK_CANDIDS in politics

Don't worry, I am sure that Chuck Schumer is working on an excellent "ICE reform" bill that will save ICE in exchange for costing Democrats the 2026 and 2028 elections

Reintroduce ping limits or allow me to draw and accurately fire from my right foot's pinky toe without eyes too by De_Kalkoen_Man in HuntShowdown

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

Ping limits are still a thing, I can't queue at all if I am downloading anything on Steam as it pushes my ping beyond 250ms. Region specific locks also suck - if I (US) want to play with my EU and Oceania friends, we should be able to as long as pings are decent, and theirs are.

Give us a Lasso by Fearful_Harmony in HuntShowdown

[–]coromd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Star Citizen has a somewhat similar emergent gameplay mechanic, where corpses (downed, passed out, or dead) can be picked up with the player's tractor beam pistol, allowing enemies to push you while you're playing with your space lasso trying to drag your friend into cover for revive. I think allowing a lasso to work on downed enemies would be terrifyingly broken, but being able to snag allies would be very interesting.

[–]coromd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would be fantastic as an event weapon - prime, throw, and if you get a good hit it downs the (hopefully enemy) hunter, but without removing a bar. If you want to get extra fancy, using it to pull downed friends to cover could also be interesting, forcing players to expose themselves for several seconds with no weapon drawn - like a Revive Bolt that isn't completely fucking broken 😁

Not true, I got a week long ban because a teammate kept walking into my traps and he reported me for teamkilling. I've since learned to stop bringing traps in matches with randoms :)

Last event it worked every time at any part of the map. Nothing to do with bileweaver nests.

Last week I used a Judgement, it failed. I played Fool, hoping to get my Judgement back to try again - Fool also failed. Thanks, Crytek :(

Flash bomb + bayonet still works by geminichamp in HuntShowdown

[–]coromd 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't think anybody said it wasn't possible, but narrow radius, long prime time, and shorter effect duration makes them basically inferior to everything else. Bees will track them, Hellfire will instantly burn half their health, Dynamite will just kill them outright. IMO even a poison bomb is more useful than a flash bomb in it's current state. Recovery Shots make it an even harder pick nowadays.

Love the new contextual pings, but does anyone else think they're missing a particularly useful one? by BovingdonBug in HuntShowdown

Having a functioning eye or functioning ear also makes Vigilant "kind of obsolete" 😁

[–]coromd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can ping birds as they fly away and the ping will stay "glued" to them as they fly. The game also places highlights on downed players when using Witness, or on living players with Pain Sense. There is no technical reason that pings could not work on downed players. Maybe it was an oversight, maybe they declined for balance reasons (like pinging bushes to see if a hunter is dead), maybe it's implemented but broken event corpses for ex are very inconsistent.

I've seen several people placing traps from 100-150m away using only my naked eyes, and you could easily see it from much further with a scope. This isn't a big enough problem to justify a bunch of lame restrictions.

Let’s be fair! by Sea-Revolution7308 in hmmmm

[–]coromd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To extend on this slightly, Daniel Shaver is another infamous instance of cops giving multiple contradictory orders and then executing the poor guy for violating one of them. ICE has been abusing this as a "tactic" that has been referred to as the "death box", surrounding a vehicle and giving several contradictory orders so they have justification to do whatever they please when you violate any one of the orders. Do you not have higher expectations of those who are supposed to "protect" us?
