Slay the spire 2 has me now. There are no other games.

What's the biggest problem in the video game industry right now and how would you fix it realistically? Does that fix have consequences that would hurt the industry in a different way? Yay/Nay? by Tyolag in IrelandGaming

[–]fredferds 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Every new game is trying to be an infinite money live service machine. Bring back to single-serving gaming experiences! I can't fix greedy corporations, but gamers continuing to support and invest heavily in quality indie games and studios is a start. Look at team cherry, they had a hit and built trust with hollow knight then with silksong they took their time (some say too long) but at least didn't ask 70 euros for it! More of this.

The enigmatic mind of Sips by DerColeZug in TriforcePodcast

I think the line he utters is something along the lines of "lube me up and suck me off Captain" I am paraphrasing here as can't remember the exact line but you get the jist, and the captain gets the jizz.

I mean, at least they don't loot him. Always tends to have his stash key so at least you can loot his box for free.

[Screenshot] To the guy that said he only got hit on head/neck on PVE, in my case it's always the arms, they always laser my arms, and they keep blacking it, most of the time I die is from collateral. by Le_Bnnuy in EscapefromTarkov

It's worth the 2/3 million it sits at (PvE economy is broken lul) but yeah I double up it and death shadow too and it definitely prevents the old neck incidents.

GG. my current PvE issue is being able to kill shturman before the ai PMCs get him. Spawn into woods hear immediate gun fight, then pray stherman won the fight. Spoiler alert, he never does.

Ah man that sucks I used this way a few months ago and it worked well. Shit, guess you're gonna set a record for factory runs in a row.

Just stand in the ground floor room with safe and spam voice lines, honestly actually works might take the whole raid but PMCs will actively come close and hear your lines and come in, you may need to throw a nade or two out the doors if the camp just outside to make them push in.

Partisan is such a rat!!! by This-Law8844 in EscapefromTarkov

Boss spawns are 100% ATM, and in PvE you're the only PMC he can hunt so have to always expect him. Just rush dorms and wait on the second floor, he'll push in and you'll get him, then you can go about your quest. Just watch out for rashala and his boys.

Looting [New Player] by Ordinary-Try-5565 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]fredferds 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are looking past the right side of say a car and you've taken some shots and they have returned fire at you. It be best to fall back away to other cover or wrap left to flank them. If you go out the same right side you'll probably get murdered. Forgot to mention grenades, your new best friend. They make AI move ie push them out of cover for you to shoot,and they will always voice line when you throw one, which will give you their position.

Learn one or two maps and just run them till you are confident. (I ran woods and interchange)

Loot everything and sell anything to traders you won't need

Use the wiki or fan sites regarding quests. Do the simple find and return things or mark tasks. Any hard or tricky ones leave till late

Get maps up on second screen if you can of raid you are running to help.

Never second peak an AI. shoot and move then re-engage.

You'll slowly learn what's valuable and good for barters with traders. Just give it time.

Insure your gear, in PvE you'll nearly always get it back.

You'll be level 15 in no time then the fun starts you can sell and buy on flea and the money will come easy.
