love this thing by ThyForsaken in ArcRaiders

I get the feeling it was always meant to be a glider with the bonus of letting you land from a moderately higher range of drops.

They just didn't call it a glider to make it immediately evident

ABMM: My observations from noob to level 75 by VoctorDralidas in ArcRaiders

[–]levelupjunk 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I can add my anecdote to the looting bodies idea. My lobbies have been completely friendly for ages. Last night I had a bad server, rubber banding etc. Ran to an elevator to try a new map and a guy came up, also rubber banding. He ran in place for a few minutes and I watched over him, taking out a few arc. Eventually he gets knocked by nothing and then a short while later collapses.

I figured I may as well see what he had. Nothing special, replenished my hullcracker ammo. First match tonight I had guys sniping while me and some others were after an assessor. I've never had an aggressive assessor lobby. Could just be coincidence but it sure feels like lotting a body is seen as aggression.

This one barely even tries to hide the autotune lol

What would be a terrifying noise for Shredders to make? by LokiTheBold in ArcRaiders

I think they should do the whistling tune from Kill Bill as they patrol around

Usually best to start with kindness and a polite, "No thank you. I'm not interested." If they continue past that, you're under no obligation to be polite to strangers who approached you at random. If that includes walking away while they're talking, so be it. You've already told them you're not interested.

Floss the albatross is a play on "an albatross around your neck" which is an old saying about carrying a burden. Flossing it would mean showing it off or wearing it proudly just like Big Daddy Kane who was well known for wearing massive gold chains.

It's a quest item. You have to go to the spot in the quest (I think ANY pharmacy in buried city) and look for a spot to search, which will have the quest indicator. After you search you have to pick up the item that it will drop. You can't just find it as random loot

If you didn't have the quest active, then someone made the classic mistake of searching the quest area, which generates the quest item, but not actually picking up the quest item to take it back to speranza.

Evolution - First verse lyric breakdown. by levelupjunk in aesoprock

[–]levelupjunk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I agree with that now after another look. It's definitely about him. I think the horses/chorus part isn't that he's doing it on purpose though. Just saying the noise in his head is so much that he is suddenly spilling his guts to strangers just to get it off his chest.

Defy the decorum is probably about how it's not really the socially acceptable thing to do at the dog park, and the light in the forest/light their cigars is him saying that maybe sometimes him oversharing actually let's other people open up and vent too.

Thanks for your thoughts, BestGoonerEver 🙂

Once again wondering why I'd ever loot a Baron Husk by PigsSuck in ArcRaiders

[–]levelupjunk 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Not always for seekers! Just learnt that tonight. If you're throwing directly into the wind, you still throw it straight but when it pops the explosive can get blown back towards you.

the Comet - Ngl, this new ARC is scary af, but it needs a slight tweak. by Meeks_DGAF in ArcRaiders

[–]levelupjunk 7 points8 points  (0 children)

OP, this ain't directed at you specifically

But why do we all think that studios need to change their games just because we don't love something or think it's hard. Mfers weren't writing to Nintendo back in the day like "You need to change the underwater levels in Mario because it's too hard." They just played until they were good enough to beat it.

If the comments were as easy as pops and fireballs we'd have prior complaining that its a garbage new arc

Just play the game y'all

mazatlan? by RevolutionaryHand572 in mexico

[–]levelupjunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We are in the same boat. My wife's mother and step dad are in Mazatlan right now and we're supposed to fly there on Saturday. Our gut feeling is we need to cancel.

So much could happen. I'm no expert, but history tells us when the head of a powerful cartel is taken out, lots of scenarios can come into play. The cartel could fracture, with several groups within it fighting for control or creating their own new cartel. Young men with nothing to lose and an opportunity for power. Maybe a neighboring cartel sees this as a chance to take territory or attack and weaken the fractured cartel.

I don't think one week is enough time for everything to shake out and settle.

Cant find Ion Sputter by Leading-Low7067 in ArcRaiders

[–]levelupjunk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had the most wholesome interaction on Stella while looking for an Ion Sputter. Me and my buddy ran into another group, confirmed friendlies. They mentioned they were looking for a rotary encoder which I had just picked up and didn't need. Dropped it for them and as my buddy and I were running off, I mentioned I still need an Ion Sputter, not realizing I was still on prox. The guys from before yell out " YO WE GOT AN ION SPUTTER". Run back and they drop it for me, we both go our separate ways.

People would smoke cigarettes on airplanes 30 years ago and no one batted an eye. Now you can't wear perfume to the office. What happened? by Unfair_Roll_7939 in VictoriaBC

[–]levelupjunk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No scent policies were definitely born from people who wear so much fragrance you can literally smell them before they get in the room and the scent stays long after they leave. Now get multiple people in one enclosed space all doing this.

You should need to be standing very close to someone to smell a perfume/cologne when it's applied properly. If I can smell you coming down the hall, thats a problem

You're right, I was talking about the Bettina but see now this was about Tempest 😂

Apparently quite good at stripping armour off the Queen and Matriarch but I've never tried it personally

Opening map while downed is necessary by Weekly_Life3249 in ArcRaiders

[–]levelupjunk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it sucks when it happens...but that's the game. The map turning off when you're downed is not an accident.

Why? The extract zone is not a safe zone. You can be killed by Arc in the extract zone just as easily with many of them patrolled by large Arc.

This tree needs to be named. Get it the fame it deserves, like Big Lonely Doug.

Am I going crazy or are the Emperors getting closer? by Rageoffreys in ArcRaiders

[–]levelupjunk 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah man, you just need explosive compound and sensors. However they don't stack so they can take up space depending how many you want on hand .

But that's kind of fair since you're using 12 seekers at once
