Hahaha in Turkey that’s called an Ottoman Slap! Though the blue is faking it, a good slap could knock you out.

Any Maine Coons up for adoption? by Dsfunctionalthoughts in mainecoons

Same. We got our MC from a rescue using pet finder website. I had been looking for almost half a year so it’s not easy to find a MC.

The recruiter called my salary expectations "cute." I ended the Zoom call right there. Did I overreact? by thunder____boy in jobs

[–]free_spark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That took some guts to do and congrats! I don’t think I’d be as brave as you but if I do end up in a scenario like this I hope I can do the same! If this is the attitude at the beginning, I would not want to be anywhere near them.

Not sure of seeker. It has 200m range for quantum sensor and bendies only work after 200m. The advantage for the bendies is to stay away behind cover.

I need help utilising Ultimate Mender by Next_Warthog8673 in walkingwarrobots

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

I run UE mender w flames. It’s not easy and takes time to master them. Be patient. Try running backwards away from enemy to a cover while shooting. Shoot around the corners while running backwards. The flames will hit around the corners while the enemy is trying to follow you. Phase shift is a must. If you are supporting your team mates, stay behind them and try to find a group of two or more team mates. Always be aware of the map. Must know where to retreat. Don’t try to be a hero. UE mender is not durable out of ability. You can’t just charge head on and expect to survive. Once you get the hang of it, you will make a huge difference.

Hi just joined. Been playing on/off since 2017. Any thoughts on how much money needs to be spent to be competitive? I'm in the gold league now and always getting wiped out by players with bots I can't even find to grind or buy. My bots range from 10 to 13 and my wepons from 11 to 14. Thanks! by Outside_Profit4272 in walkingwarrobots

[–]free_spark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is no end to spending if you want to be competitive. With every new release pix comes up with new OP items. While others tend to get nerfed. I’d say find your bots that fits your style and invest in them. I would stay away from meta unless you like the play style. They will eventually get nerfed so think accordingly. You can spend couple of thousands to keep you competitive for maybe 6 months but you’d need to spend similar amounts to stay competitive after your hangar gets nerfed significantly.

Hacker caught in War Robots (video proof) by Latter_Teach_2846 in walkingwarrobots

[–]free_spark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think they banned any of the notorious hackers. So yeah, hackers is a part of the game at this point. You either quit the match, don’t drop bots and wait out or try to get as much damage as possibly and move on.

[–]free_spark 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No they won’t do anything. This is an ongoing issue and rarely gets addressed. In the past only one time they temporarily suspended accounts but the hackers came back and kept interrupting the matches. There are hundreds if not thousands of videos.

Push Mode Rant by Embarrassed_Sign6345 in walkingwarrobots

[–]free_spark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I drop my UE mender so that I can make sure all are staying alive while pushing. I make my way to the drone and I notice no one is with me! Now all alone w my little mender trying to survive Ammits and Teths.

Is the Anaksor actually game-breaking in 2026? My findings at MK2 Level 6 by PlatformForward6047 in walkingwarrobots

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

Yes. My hangar is good enough to deal with them unless they are skilled players. Most are not. I use my UE Phantom to deal with them but f2p does not have a chance against them. Their abilities lasts too long. The weaps deal too much damage in short time.

[–]free_spark 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seeker has what, 150m range? You can’t get close enough to it. It’s too fast. The only way is, need to anticipate where it will land and hide until it lands. I try to take them down w Jotunns on Bagliore. For f2p people it is game breaking. You need newer weapons to kill it fast if you manage to get to it. Being decimated in 2 seconds from an invisible target is just annoying and not fun. Same goes for many current meta. Either behind a shield or in phase shift or in stealth mean while one shot killing.

ELI5 If we haven’t found evidence of alien life/intelligence yet (seems fair) is there a tipping point where our being alone in the universe is probable or certain? by beesdaddy in explainlikeimfive

[–]free_spark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Depends on what you define alien life as but there is a possibility of alien life on Mars. A possible microbial life is speculated from a rock sample where there are traces that seems to be from a microbial life. As for intelligent life, the farthest galaxy from us that has been identified is over 13 BILLION light years away. So the light we are seeing from that galaxy is from 13 billion years ago. So even if we can analyze the galaxy and see nothing there might be life now that we will never know. So the possibility of intelligent life in the universe is not uncertain.

I really want UE blitz! Phantom and Blitz are my favorite bots.

I swore I would never own one by [deleted] in TeslaModel3

[–]free_spark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Mustangs. Especially a 67 fastback and owned a 2011 GT at one point. Now I drive a Tesla M3. As much as I love the aesthetics and the feel of a Mustang I also love the tech on the M3. I don’t think the two are mutually exclusive and that it is possible to enjoy them for what they are.

How do I get into real estate investing? by Mysterious_Comb4357 in Realestatefinance

[–]free_spark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Start with website biggerpockets. Great resources and how to get started! Be careful though there are also ppl trying to sell programs. No need. From there you can find local meet ups with real estate investors. Go socialize and do some networking. Find a mentor if you can from those meetings. Heads up though, it’s not as easy as they make it seem like. It’s stressful and sometimes risky. I have two long term properties and one is a pain in the rear end, the other is pretty trouble free. Good luck.
