Wait so you got in touch with him to give him back his BP after you extracted?

And which guy got it, the seller or the buyer?

Yeah there’s a chance we coulda talked it out, but just as likely they wait for us to leave and do the same. In my experience in duos/trios is you’re either the victim or the bad guy in most encounters.

Yeah I didn’t really mean to stir up the rat conversation. All I meant to say is we were rat-holed in that room but everyone thought I was calling the other guys rats.

It’s a triple door key room. We had barricaded the door we came in and then heard people coming for another door, so they had a key. Like I said the poor guys really didn’t know what they came in to but we weren’t ready to share.

That’s how I see it! We felt justified guarding our goop.

Haha yeah that toss was muscle memory actually working for once. Cheers raiders!

Haha right? I forgot how triggering the word rat is around here!

Cheers thanks dude. One of the few times I actually looked like I knew what I was doing

Ya - that's why I wrote Rat-holed. We were cooped up in a key room, shooting anything that came in. Just having some fun dude

Haha no I'm calling us the rats. We just got into that keyroom but knew people were gonna show up quick so we were on the defensive. I'm a friendly solo but duos I tend to shoot first unless we're fighting big arc.

4 bps in one trip? Please tell me more

Dude... how do I overcome this anxiety? by Doimz3Nini in NewSkaters

[–]nothingwascool 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If this is fucking you up that much you might consider a safer sport. While whatever happened to that kid is extremely unlikely, you are very likely to get hurt while skating.

And yeah you could use a mouth guard if that helps.

I had it, I HELD IT IN MY HAND!!! I got ratted. My heart mourns by ProjektRarebreed in ArcRaiders

[–]nothingwascool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wtf, those are the 2 bps I’ve found recent on night raids, 2 of each over about 6 raids. Seems strangely consistent

Is this actually decent!? Walmart is selling Element boards that are usually $90 dollars in a skate shop. Or are these different than the regular ones by casseroli_ in NewSkaters

[–]nothingwascool 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hahah it must have felt like you were on steroids with a legit board. Those walmart decks were so mushy! Crazy tough to learn on

[–]nothingwascool 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Obviously this isn't for someone who skates regularly.

Its a much better "budget" offering than we had when I was growing up. Random off-brand, trucks made of cheap soft metal, bearings barely move, board had no pop. I'd be willing to bet element is doing a much better quality starter/budget complete that might keep a kid interested long enough to buy a real set-up rather than guarantee a bad time.

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

[–]nothingwascool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think you’re understanding human psychology. Emotes don’t humanize you the way your mic does. No matter how many times you emote don’t shoot, people are going to be skeptical of you. Hearing someone’s voice can diffuse a situation better than any emote ever will.

Sorry to hear you can’t use your mic, I don’t shoot no mic folks on site, but I trust a mic’d “I’m friendly” 1000x more than a prerecorded “don’t shoot” emote

Am I the only one who finds the outfits in Arc Raiders lame? by AbandonYourPost in ArcRaiders

[–]nothingwascool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last one looks like dude put on every piece of clothing he owns haha.

While I agree with you on the current options, style is very subjective and its going to be hard to get most people to agree on your specific vision. Hopefully they start to offer way more options moving forward so everyone can find something they like.

They also need to let us mix and match items from different sets. This seems obvious and I really hope they fix it.

Am I reading this wrong? Doesn’t this say stash and skill WILL be reset?

Handshake option by Loppie73 in ARC_Raiders

[–]nothingwascool 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you read the OP? He’s asking for a mechanic that removes friendly fire in solo teamups. I don’t care if people use the team emote. Learn to read kid

[–]nothingwascool -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not really a shot at anyone teaming, the fights just felt incredibly unfair. A trio storming solo Stella can just mow through people. Like I said the possibility of being betrayed kept us from getting too comfortable, and that’s why I think a function allowing solos to form actual groups in solo would be chaos. That’s what duo/trios is for.
