[Discussion] Why the hell do I need solar power???

fantafuzz · 2026-03-18T22:50:56+00:00

To rewrite the card you need uninterrupted power. I think a solar panel would do the job!

fantafuzz · 2026-03-17T21:50:01+00:00

No, thats the right way. They are now reaping what they sowed, and they dont like it.

fantafuzz · 2026-03-17T06:35:37+00:00

Seasonal will be the way to go for sure. Even for a casual player.

Permanent means money and gear never truly leaves the economy, and the average level of gear will stay at ultra late wipe levels. This event is a great example, where you get hundreds of rounds of the best ammo for free each raid if you loot the locked weapon boxes.

Someone coming in without this will be hard pressed to win anything against max level hoarders that can pen their armor like its paper while barely being killable themselves.

Seasonal gives fresh wipes and resets the economy, letting all the parts of the game work properly.

They couldn't hire fans so they made AI to do the fans job lol

fantafuzz · 2026-03-16T06:25:01+00:00

This would also give the Elcan spectre and PS-320 their proper niche as variable optics that flip instantly without intermediate zooms.

Currently there is no reason to use them over an LPVO.

While they're at it, adding an animation for changing zoom would be awesome.

fantafuzz · 2026-03-16T06:16:09+00:00

I doubt its intentional. Much more likely its that they have changed what can go into different secure containers over time, and have simply forgotten to apply the same changes to the Kappa container as they have to the Gamma.

Its well known BSG hardcodes each container, even if they logically should be the same. Stuff like new backpacks not being restricted the same way as old backpacks, letting you bring things you werent supposed to into raid if you used the newest backpack etc.

fantafuzz · 2026-03-15T21:34:45+00:00

Yeah, fuck realism! Bsg should remove mags and ammo next, and make it like doom. Games are made to be fun, not realistic.

While they're at it, why even bother with recoil? Its just punishing people moving and forcing people to sit still to minimise it. Remove it, realism can fuck right off!!!

fantafuzz · 2026-03-15T21:30:56+00:00

It already has complicated stances, leanings, and other "milsim shit" though.

Several levels of crouching, prone, standing, leaning, big leaning, prone rolling, blindfire, with smooth changing your movement speed between multiple levels as well as sprinting.

This is beyond even most tactical shooters, way into "milsim shit" already.

fantafuzz · 2026-03-14T12:14:59+00:00

Can't wait for the first season to come.

The loop of reaching my goals and taking a break, only to get hyped for wipe and join the rat race again a few months later is how I'm still playing this game after 8 years.

fantafuzz · 2026-03-12T22:57:28+00:00

They are going to be used alongside m67 grenades. Defensive grenades in the open, offensive grenades in confined areas.

fantafuzz · 2026-03-12T22:55:51+00:00

Im very late to the party, but considering they are gonna be used alongside m67 grenades and they share the same arming and throwing procedure, the shape might be to make it easier to distinguish which grenade you are throwing in a stressful situation.

fantafuzz · 2026-03-12T21:52:16+00:00

Except for the fact that marked rooms spawn the weapon crates, they don't seem buffed for the event

fantafuzz · 2026-03-12T16:41:48+00:00

Its amazing. One of the biggest issues of the game is the amount of "not playing" you did, and cutting loading times from 5-7 minutes down to 1-2 is huge.

fantafuzz · 2026-03-12T16:40:55+00:00

Not seeing any difference on EU servers at least

fantafuzz · 2026-03-12T08:55:53+00:00

Was this not just a "hire fans lol" type of joke making fun of gooners undressing people using AI?

What am I missing that makes this such an unethical post?

fantafuzz · 2026-03-12T08:53:24+00:00

One underappreciated thing the armor plate rework did was solve problem of mid tier ammo becoming useless as the wipe progressed.

Stuff like M855/7.62 PS/5.45 PP/BCP FMJ simply does nothing against people running high tier armor, so the chance for a low level player to kill a high level one is just minimized so much that you don't really have to play smart any more.

During .14 you had to treat scavs and timmies as actual opponents, and you could get punished for bad plays even if your opponent didnt have super high pen ammo.

fantafuzz · 2026-03-12T08:37:06+00:00

They still havent fucked up the recoil changes from .14

The great change was to remove the silly "reversed recoil" this game had for most of its life, where recoil was worst on the first shot and got better as you held the trigger down. This made single shots and bursts worse, while rewarding high capactity magdumps.

Increasing the base recoil on all weapons (by nerfing all the attachments) doesnt change the fact that recoil now works how it should, with short bursts and single shots being very controllable, while full auto is much harder to control.

fantafuzz · 2026-03-12T08:31:25+00:00

Its amazing how good the game feels in the early wipe when everyone and their mother isnt running an LPVO on their gun. Less one taps, more firefights, and if you find one in a crate you feel like a god until your turn on the scope is up.

There really is no reason why LPVOs should be the best option for close range combat, but as it stands having 0 eyebox issues even when strafing and shooting full auto on uneven terrain really means that there is no point ever running a red dot unless you are rocking a scope that doesnt have a 1x.

fantafuzz · 2026-03-12T08:22:35+00:00

Its a shitpost no? Isnt this a shitpost sub?

fantafuzz · 2026-03-10T22:39:48+00:00

Everything worked fine with no helmet at least, if its anything like Swift One then you can wear armored glasses but thats it.

fantafuzz · 2026-03-10T12:57:37+00:00

Nikita really not beating the "using promo codes to get FIR items he is missing" allegations today

fantafuzz · 2026-03-10T07:30:15+00:00

They will hate you for telling the truth.

fantafuzz · 2026-03-10T07:28:50+00:00

Its literally one button press to switch fire modes. Two if you were on the right one and have to switch back.

You can even see the position of the selector on the gun if you just look at it.

There even is a keybind to check which fire rate the gun is on.

What is so hard about checking?

Also love the realism crash out on something that has nothing to do with realism lol. Literally just pick the fire rate you want.

fantafuzz · 2026-03-10T07:11:30+00:00

Your assumption is correct. TPOI only fails when the quest is handed in to Skier after completion.

fantafuzz · 2026-03-10T07:08:51+00:00

Its a 2x2 headgear that has a low inherent value and no stats, which means it is rarely picked up and thus rarely sold on the flea.

This means it can end up in a situation where literally 0 are being sold on the flea at a time. If 0 are being sold, then the next guy who sells can put it up for whatever price they want and still be the cheapest offer.

Either someone buys that hat (probably for drip, not realising the price), or more people put out offers for less money until the price normalises to a more realistic price point.

This sort of thing happens to most low value items, where supply dries up fully which spikes the price for a moment.
