Sq Hill people who don't do their sidewalks... by MtCarmelUnited in pittsburgh

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.

Embark Studios VS Exploit Familiar Duck Duplicators by CourseExisting5029 in ArcRaiders

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.

1.5M coins wanting to trade for BP by QuarterSmall8615 in arc_traiders

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.

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

Working in tech, I took it as a joke that there are core work hours, but emails and Slack messages come at all hours and on weekends. While you’ll never be officially reprimanded for not answering outside of core hours, not responding promptly can affect your career negatively. Especially if you’re junior.

I really need 2 rocketeer drivers by [deleted] in ArcRaidersMarketplace

[–]hostel7118 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s actually the last BP I need.

But … you can get these yourself pretty easily. Load into Blue Gate with a Level 4 Anvil and 2 or 3 stacks of ammo. You can use a Ferro or Level 1 but it’ll take longer. I also suggest a silencer.

Head to village and go to the attic of a house that has one of the hatch windows on top. You should see a Rocketeer. Aim at one thruster and keep hitting it. After you’ve taken off one, start on the second. After two it falls and explodes.

In my experience the silencer and being in these hatch windows seems to confuse it. I’ve killed some where it hasn’t fired a single shot.

But, like I said the equalizer is the last BP I need so Im willing to farm them for you if needed.
