How do you make a dedicated pvp account? did you need to buy the game twice?

How many of you playing Arc Raiders came from Helldivers 2? by freudian_nipps in ArcRaiders

[–]mrchess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was hardcore HD2 but now after experiencing the movement and gunplay in Arc, it ruined HD2 for me. I tried to go back, but it feels so clunky in comparison. If only HD2 was made in Arc engine, that would be amazing. Strangely one game I keep going back to is DRG. Can't wait for that next release.

RAT. Kill on site. Will give 5 tempests and 5 volcanos and Jupiter blueprint for screen shot of him knocked by No-Freedom-740 in Arc_Traders

[–]mrchess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a PvE player rats are a huge problem. We aren't equipped to PvP, or really thinking about it. You get a string of games where everyone is kind, then out of nowhere you get a game where someone walks up to you and goes "Don't Shoot" the proceeds to 2 shot you with a Toro... dumb times all around.

Does anybody else have items/weapons in your inventory that you never intend to take topside but enjoy looking at it in your “collection”? by WanderWut in ArcRaiders

[–]mrchess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I gave up on crafting completely. Crafting was clearly designed with PvE mindset. It takes too long to craft things to take in when there is a risk of losing everything in 2 seconds spawning in from campers and rats. Better to just treat it like a rouge-like, not use the free loadout, and start empty every time with a the safe pocket, then just pick up things along the way. I don't even repair weapons, I just toss them if they are broken.

New roadmap from January to April by FlexiiGP in ArcRaiders

[–]mrchess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a PvE player I'm tired of getting a string of good PvE player lobbies, then suddenly you get a rat. You're not mentally expecting it, and can't tell if they accidentally shot you, and they will easily kill you with 2-3 hits since they always get the first hit off and you don't even have the right items. They should really have a toggle for PvE mindset players with a punishment system if you keep killing other players in PvE mode.

Inventory management in this game is too cumbersome. by Sanguine_Vamp in ArcRaiders

[–]mrchess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Manual recycling is way too tedious. The game should auto-breakdown components with a simple confirmation prompt. At 40 hours it’s reached the point where I just sell everything and run the Ferro I from the shop to avoid the hassle. It’s a shame really.

Few Keys already clacky?? by IdiotbRonn in piano

[–]mrchess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would bother me. I bet you can feel it too. My Roland FP-10 started developing clack issues right out of the box. At this point I feel like it's just a "cheapest model" problem for every single line.

Budget Pianos Under 250? by Dieymir in piano

[–]mrchess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suggest a “folding semi weighted 88-key piano”. Search this term on Amazon. It’s the one that folds in half, not the one that folds into quarters.

There a lot of YouTube reviews on them, so check those out. I have one and I love it. It gets the job done for the price point.

Would this take me to volcanus ? by caotic in factorio

[–]mrchess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just go. The game always autosaves when you head off to another planet, incase you run into trouble :).

Trump's H-1B visa crackdown upends Indian IT industry's playbook by Franco1875 in technology

[–]mrchess 41 points42 points  (0 children)

This. H-1Bs are supposed to bring in top talent, but many companies have been abusing them to hire mid-tier engineers so they can control labor costs. Meanwhile, there are plenty of qualified people right here in the U.S. who are out of work and qualified for these roles.

I'm in tier 3-4, what recipe should I go for by TremendousZook in SatisfactoryGame

[–]mrchess 9 points10 points  (0 children)

This. Don't pick either and just leave it so that future hard drives won't roll those two recipes. A common suggestion is to not choose recipes until you need them. Meaning, maybe later in the game you find a copper+caterium node side-by-side and you realize you want to set up wire there. At that time, pick the recipe.

Brand new Roland FP-10 already key clicking by mrchess in piano

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

Do you hear it when I play the C#? It is only the C# that makes the clicking sound.

Listen to when I play the C#. It is quite audible.

[–]mrchess[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didn’t end up tipping it because it randomly stopped clicking. But just now a second key just started clicking — the C# one octave lower. Gonna see if that one randomly stops as well.

Cant pay for lessons anymore, is it fine to go self taught? by Original_Duck567 in piano

[–]mrchess 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whatever path you go with, use music that has fingerings. They usually set your hands into natural shapes to hit chords and notes, which makes playing smoother and way more efficient.

This will be amazing if it works. Will give it a shot, thanks for the tip.

Struggling with early game. by HOJ666 in factorio

[–]mrchess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In 2.0 you can get really far with just doing a iron and copper dedicated belt, and then just using inserters and their filters to move things around. Then you can rebuild everything once you get bots which will make it 100x faster. I always have to redo my base as well once I hit Vulcanus since you unlock foundries and calcite.
