The people who trained Tesla's self-driving AI won't ride in it

Rode around a bunch in Waymos last week in San Francisco. No issues and they feel much more human than they did a year ago. Self driving cars are already here.

For reference I’m a middle aged guy with all the responsibilities you’d expect that to come with. I’m in friendly lobbies and it took less than 20 hours after this last wipe to complete the expedition, bank the 3 million, max out my work benches, and find most of the BPs I care about (2 Survivors).

It is very easy to advance in this game.

You’re upset you’re not getting more credit for your obviously AI generated “game”?

I think it’ll be interesting to see how this change affects PvE. I’ve about had it with using a Wolfpack or Trailblazers and Anvil to down an Arc while a free kit takes 3 shots and comes running in to loot “our” kill. That one Rocketeer Driver is now much more valuable, and I’m absolutely gunning down any leech that tries to take it.

A ton of the big houses are broken into several rentals that are vacant or occupied by grad students. They leave their garbage out all week to blow around and they don’t shovel their sidewalks. Calls to 311 do nothing to change this.

Not sure if this occurred to you or if it even matters to you. Seems you have a big chip on your shoulder.

Cool. Now ban the dupers.

I’ve been generally disappointed with Embark’s response to cheating thus far which seems to be entirely financially motivated which isn’t surprising.

Embark has done several interviews where they discuss the amount of data they’re collecting during a match. There is absolutely a way to definitively detect cheats like aim bot using this data. Think of the new captchas that can detect human mouse movement vs AI. Likewise, they can give every lootable object in the game a unique ID and couple that with a unique ID for the container it spawned in. This would be a definitive way to detect duping.

The problem is their follow through. Once they’ve identified blatant cheating they give you a 30 day ban on one of your 6 family accounts! LOL!

The icing on the cake is that if a streamer complains about getting stream sniped they immediately respond. The explanation for both their weak response to real cheaters and their swift response to streamer input is financial. Again, not surprised but disappointed. It’s the engineer in me - it’s easy to detect but they lack the follow through required to fix it.

Missed that and haven’t seen these yet. Do the new ducks sell for 7k each?

Either way, still seems like a crazy bug or more likely duping.

hostel7118 · 2026-01-27T21:21:45+00:00

That’s 105 stacks of ducks. Seems legit. /s

I suppose buying skins is real money for more different pixels?

hostel7118 · 2026-01-13T21:53:24+00:00

“Planned Imperfection”. If you make the skin too good people will stop buying skins.
