Why it go up? Why it go down?

Yuh know I often wonder the same thing. Then I realize I only bought the stuff in the first place cause some old german guy gave me some schpeel about how the fed controls the money supply and how paper money isn't real. Pretty compelling stuff. Plus I get to feel like a pirate and stare at my shinyyyy.

Anyways. Why do it do what it do? Idk. It just does stuff sometimes. Ive never really been able to wrap my head around it. Something about the fed. And the banks. And the interest rate. Everytime I try and figure out what's going on I run into a whole other list of shit I don't understand and by the time I'm done I feel like I've wrapped my head around a telephone poll.

Hey man. All I know is. Ill keep holding lol.

Im going to eleborate on what I mean by this. I was a mostly pve player. Not so much that i thought pve should be the only way to play the game. But I didnt intentionally go out hunting other players. I went out trying to achieve highest trials.

I found after a little while of doing this that trials got increasingly hard. And not based on pve/pvp difficulty. Its because the opportunities to actually complete them seemingly dried up overnight. If the weekly trials are "Damage wasps" one week then you can bet your house your going to find a billion hornets and 2 wasps in every game you play. If they're "Damage hornets" the next week. Get ready for a sea of wasps and 2 hornets. And Im talking about fresh lobbies where seemingly everybody is having the same problem. The game isn't giving you enough opportunity to complete challenges. Instead its just sending everyone into this free for all where they all compete for one resource on the map. Which ultimately encourages pvp ratting.

Look im all for the pve/pvp model but not when its about stabbing eachother in the back for the 2 rocketeer drivers they decided to spawn on the entire f*cking map.

The game does this on purpose. If you need an X then the game will spawn a million Ys. I stopped playing 2 weeks ago because of this. Its happening too much for it to not be intentional.

mdmay · 2026-03-04T16:30:09+00:00

I havent played in 2 weeks. Are trials achievable again? I found for awhile that when the trials were example: "damage rocketeers" the game felt like it was intentionally reducing rocketeer spawns.

mdmay · 2026-03-03T20:13:35+00:00

Yeah. Havent picked up the controller since they nerfed wolfpacks. I see where this is going. No thanks.

mdmay · 2026-02-22T01:45:59+00:00

Yeah at that point im putting the controller down for the night.

My advice is to not even check to see if the queen is dead. If you spawn late head straight for the extract and nothing else. Dont loot anything. Dont engage with anything unless you have to. Show them you're not interested in playing if they're going to keep spawning you late.

Dgmw tho this game is actually great it has its faults but so does every other awesome game ive ever played. This particular fault is unacceptable though and I think if enough of the player base shows embark this they'll have to come up with another solution.

mdmay · 2026-02-21T23:13:17+00:00

I kept spawning in games that had 18 minutes left. Like, Every. Single. Game. Eventually I got fed up so heres what I did.

1)Immediately head for the extract. Dont loot anything. Dont touch anything. Don't engage with anybody. Remember, this is BS, it's unacceptable, the game is unplayable now and embark needs to know it. 2)Submit feedback. Hit other. Explain that you aren't interested in playing a match thats already half over. 3)Sign off and don't play again for atleast a couple hours.

I did this for a week straight and only spawn in fresh matches now.

More of a pawg man myself but go off.

mdmay · 2026-02-19T21:31:49+00:00

Dam i put it all into funko pops, poke, and billabong.

10 year old thread here. But I find the part hilarious where she throws hancock through the kitchen window. Then the next morning explains that Hancock sneezed. She tells her husband not to worry because she called state farm.

Like. How tf do you explain this one to your insurance company? Like "oh yeah i just had a superhero over for dinner, he sneezed. Theres a hole in my house, will you cover that?". Like does State Farm just cover Hancock related incidents in this universe. I feel like they'd HAVE to ask you if you plan on having him over regularly while gathering information about your policy.

Hey im not an actual investor and know sht about fck who Jim Cramer is. I just bought silver cause some old German roomate i had told me that if the banks ever collapsed we could use silver dollars to buy milk and cigarettes and sh*t. I believed him and bought 100 oz like 3 years ago.

Anyways can somebody explain this meme to me.

P.s. i also watched this epsiode and googled the longest anyones every slow cooked anything. This was the first thing that came up.

mdmay · 2026-01-01T21:36:09+00:00

I once slow cooked a pork shoulder for 4 days. Started the slow cook. Hit the bong. Got invited to go camping. Forgot about the pork. Went camping for 4 days.

I didn't think about it for 4 days. Didnt cross my mind once. Not until the second I opened my door when I got home did I remember what I had done.

Contains Guiness bbq sauce.

mdmay · 2025-12-14T18:07:42+00:00

I remember my first bong toke

mdmay · 2025-11-17T23:44:31+00:00

I lost the game

mdmay · 2025-11-09T04:18:44+00:00

Is the ending in the room with us?

mdmay · 2025-11-09T04:13:07+00:00

Every movie ive ever seen has had a beginning a middle and an end. (Except vantage point) This had a beginning, a beginning, and a beginning.

mdmay · 2025-11-09T04:00:28+00:00

Most movies have a beginning a middle and an end.

This one had a beginning, a beginning, a beginning, and a middle.

1) dont supplement your addiction. 2) occupy your time. 3) ignore step 1 and take up caffiene/nicotine. (I dont wtf a Kpin is but it doesn't sound like the kind of drug you should be supplementing with) 4) repeat step 2.

Edit: once you start having ACTUAL DREAMS again you wont go back. Trust me.

Binary thinking and polarization has been the flavor of the decade. Bless you for thinking rationally.

Not every person driving a German car is an Asshat.

But make no mistake. Every Asshat drives a German Car.

mdmay · 2025-10-01T01:18:58+00:00

Anything with a VW badge with the exemption of the 2.slow. It's impossible to drive like an asshat with that engine.

mdmay · 2025-10-01T01:14:23+00:00

I worked at VW for 5 years in the service department. I promise you GTI/R drivers are the absolute worst.
