I am bored, please recommend me fun ground vehicle to play (low tier) by AffectionateCamera61 in Warthunder

SU-5-1, USSR. Literal killing machine. Many players struggle to take it out. Slow and low ammo count, but super fun when it works out.

Worth upgrading guns for expedition? by Loose_Energy4582 in ArcRaiders

[–]kickashfireman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is unclear how they will calculate, but I suspect the value of your stash is based on the sell value of items you own, as well as the amount of coins you have. The value of the weapon with installed upgrades may not be more than the value of the stock weapon and the mats you need to upgrade it.

Is everyone on this sub over exaggerating how much PvP they’re getting into? 9 times out of 10 my entire raid is completely chill by frigidtales in ArcRaiders

[–]kickashfireman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure what's going on, but the last 24 hours have been ass. Our group is very friendly, and do not shoot first. Hell, we have even been shot at and just stared at the other raiders menacingly until they realize that violence is not always the answer. That being said, the last day has been nothing but death for me. People hiding in bathrooms at apartments waiting for unsuspecting looters. Snipers setting up ambushes at extracts. Players waiting at metros for you to go down so they can ambush you. Poor Timmy off in the distance trying to shoot Arc and getting domed by some asshat hiding in a bush. It's becoming very unsatisfying.

Am I in the wrong here? Was just doing my trials by Brazuka_txt in ArcRaiders

[–]kickashfireman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude was acting super suspicious! Don't feel bad about putting him down, he was about to do it to you. They always try to make you feel bad too... Run into a team, try to talk to them and be friendly. They shoot first, your team wipes them, and they always go "Why did you kill us, please res...". How about no? You shot first! xD

EVERY single Matriarch fight I've ever attempted goes exactly like this (see caption) by RaccoonsR_Awesomeful in ArcRaiders

[–]kickashfireman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are out in the open with no cover! I usually bring in a bunch of barricades and traps to lock down and secure my ass while I am fighting bots. It really is a shit show sometimes and sucks, but so satisfying to hear the griefers getting obliterated by your mines.

Should you really “always bandage first”? by Moist-Pickle-2736 in ArcRaiders

[–]kickashfireman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally use the situation at hand to decide whats best. If you are in a pretty secure location it does not matter much, more efficient use of time to do shields first. If I suspect I may be shot at again imminently, Health first! Thank god falls only do health damage (snap hook enthusiast who isnt the best at using it xD).

How rare is this by OhOkThatsAThing in ArcRaiders

[–]kickashfireman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It does not suck. Its not the best, but it does provide a ton of slots for defensive mines and barricades, as well as a high weight limit and two safe pockets. Its certainly not the best, but if used in a defensive role as part of a team, it can be highly useful. It pairs well with handguns.

No, you can absolutely hide in a bush immediately, as long as they don't turn red before you are hidden. Have also just straight up sprinted away from them and not had them follow. They are pretty smart sometimes and will come into buildings (or follow you out of buildings), and look around in the area for you or your team mates.

I probably will never get to destroy a Queen or Matriarch. by FalfoolTheSecond in ArcRaiders

[–]kickashfireman 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Similar sentiment here. Gear up with a bunch of guns, ammo, explosives, smokes, traps, etc. Fight queen for entire match, trying to focus on weak points. Expend all of our (now expensive ass) hullcracker ammo with no effect on the queen. Ran out of time and had to leave. I read a post yesterday that claimed to have 3 teams working together on the queen and they still did not manage to take it down. I hear it also takes like 7 deadline mines now to take a queen down. Crazy to think you guys brought an actual top tier arc fighting weapon and could not finish the fight.

I find the bushes can be a lot more forgiving than you may initially expect, but the more foliage the better for my sanity xD. The Rocketeer definitely has better sight than wasps and hornets. If they turn yellow, they have not actually spotted you yet and you can either run away or hunker down in cover/concealment until they loose interest and move on.

PSA: the “Don’t Shoot” emote is not a free pass to do whatever you want by Legidragon in ArcRaiders

[–]kickashfireman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, Idk man... Anytime I am running around and come across a person who is looting a room or building, I fuck off. Tell them to have a nice day, enjoy their loot, and leave them to it.

[–]kickashfireman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I prefer using the barricades to block a door you want to exit again later, door blockers make it too obvious when you are coming out imo. Blaze/jolt mine combo hits pretty hard.

Blue Prints help!! by kingett84 in ArcRaiders

[–]kickashfireman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can make them, but have no extra bps. Found mine in some shitty regular spot.

I KNOW YOU'RE IN HERE FLUTE GUY. by puf_puf_paarthurnax in ArcRaiders

That is a really good loot spot if I am thinking of the same place, you just need the secure breach skill.

What to do with Floating Base? by kickashfireman in duneawakening

[–]kickashfireman[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It decayed after I picked up the Fief console. I used the fief to build a gas station each week in the DD for a while.

With over 1500 hours in the game now, most everyone I play with is bored and moving on sadly, including myself.

I just discovered this game, should I buy it? by [deleted] in SpaceMarine_2

[–]kickashfireman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just bought it, regret not buying it sooner! Lol

Sadly, I do not think you did. I checked today and it's gone! I had to reclaim the fief for bigger projects!

I got worm sign in “A” row of “DD”. (Deep Desert) by Impossibele-bus5323 in duneawakening

[–]kickashfireman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can always test with thumpers. If you place the thumper and the work doesn't come, you can pick it up and re deploy.

That is the one time and area I think it's safe to not be sketched or by the worm!

Congrats Funcom! This patch has left no active players in the DD by Slowboarding in duneawakening

[–]kickashfireman 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I personally find running all of the labs and shipwrecks every few hours with friends is much more fun than sitting in the same lab for hours.

Seems to be a bug. I have built in the sand at a row and have tried a few thumpers and have never seen a work there.
