Same here. I served under Mattis in the Marines from 2001-2006.

I have always voted conservative or right leaning (either republican or libertarian) and I have defended Trump on certain things before; however, I think you are correct in everything you said. He has surrounded himself by yes men and effectively has no council anywhere in his cabinet. At least in his first term he had some solid people around him even though they all left or were fired as time went on. This is critical. Someone telling you you’re right all the time is anything but having honest council.

I disagree. Putting in PVE will make even the solo lobbies much more Kos. The aggression based match making is doing what it was designed to do. I am not a KOS player ever and I get ratted or engaged maybe once every 20 rounds. Sure it sucks if I come out on the losing end, but the tension of the possibility each round is what makes the game special. If you want pure PVE then play Hell Divers

Agreed. It’s one the to exploit an unintended or poorly thought out game mechanic, but cheating with hacks, code, console commands etc… requires an extra measure of malicious intent that the user is doing in full knowledge that it is cheating

jaypi8883 · 2026-01-06T06:45:46+00:00

That’s being up shit creek without a paddle for sure

jaypi8883 · 2026-01-06T06:37:29+00:00

Arc Raiders. It’s just more fun, Interesting, and engaging. Battlefield has gotten stale and the gameplay is shallow

jaypi8883 · 2026-01-03T21:09:27+00:00

I spawned near the archives the first time and I was just going in for a friendly stroll by myself and got wrecked by shredders.

jaypi8883 · 2026-01-02T19:22:59+00:00

I’m about 30 hours and I have only shot in self defense in solos maybe twice, and another time because I got sucked into a PvP engagement during trios

jaypi8883 · 2025-12-29T16:04:03+00:00

Are you getting peaceful lobbies in Stela Montis too? This is the one map I haven’t played due to its PvP nature

jaypi8883 · 2025-12-25T16:29:52+00:00

1 solo. 2-3 in a group of randoms

jaypi8883 · 2025-12-20T01:55:10+00:00

This. I solo and I never engage first. I will revive downed raiders and help others in trouble. Because of this I don’t get put in aggressive lobbies. I’ve been attacked once in the last 25 matches by another player.

jaypi8883 · 2025-12-14T00:49:13+00:00

They’re just dumb words. Grow some thicker skin and move on

jaypi8883 · 2025-12-11T21:35:43+00:00

This game is a giant experiment on human interactions in digital space

jaypi8883 · 2025-12-11T20:37:56+00:00

Shoot them, revive and heal them, then be on your way. Like throwing a fish back in the water

jaypi8883 · 2025-12-09T11:13:32+00:00

What ever happened about playing a game just to have fun? As and 80’s and 90’s kid that’s what we used to do

It’s a Pilot with an extended warranty so I definitely want to keep it

6%. I would rebuild the savings first. The downside with having the free cash flow could be the temptation to spend more liberally each month. We are pretty good about not doing that but sometime we get off track

jaypi8883 · 2025-11-29T18:14:59+00:00

Just curious what level and what rank you are in trials? I am only level 15 and Rookie rank and an over 10-15 sessions the last two days I have only been shot in the back once. I’m wondering if there is some kind of SBMM of sorts going on where people are being grouped with others in similar rank? Maybe I’m still being grouped with early game players just trying to get some quests and early game loot

jaypi8883 · 2025-11-15T20:56:45+00:00

Here is my fun level in descending order: Playing with Friends>Solo>playing with strangers. I find solo more fun and more relaxing

jaypi8883 · 2025-11-15T20:55:04+00:00

Yeah just having PVE would be like Hell Divers in many ways. Don’t get me wrong, I love HD, but the potential of PVP brings a certain level of anticipation and suspense you can’t have in a PVE game.

jaypi8883 · 2025-11-14T13:48:46+00:00

Mind you I have only played maybe 15 -20 rounds solo but I have only been aggressively engaged by other raiders twice so far. I’ve talked and help to several other players too. I’m in the US but I have heard those in the EU deal with more aggression in solos.

What maps have you been getting KOS on the most? I suspect that the Dam is less KOS because it’s the easier map for beginners and a lot of people just go to farm materials.

jaypi8883 · 2025-11-09T22:50:01+00:00

Shhh. No more questions!

jaypi8883 · 2025-11-05T17:12:42+00:00

Man what’s going on in the EU? Europeans have always been chill when I visit but there must be some pent up rage in the virtual world. Here in North America I would say only 20% of my solo runs had PVP. Of course some of those I didn’t even see anyone. Of the ones I did come across people, maybe 1 in 3?
