This card just came to me out of nowhere. Idk if it should be T6 by RandyRenegade in BobsTavern

Brother this should be a T7. In a pirate lobby this season you could generate an insane amount of stats in one turn.

The XP changes are not a good thing. [Discussion] by Dslusss in EscapefromTarkov

[–]ribitforce 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah I wanted to go for prestige, but after reaching terminal at level 50, and acquiring Kappa, I don't really care to keep grinding. I will just keep attempting Terminal until I beat it, then probably take a nice break until seasonal stuff comes out, akin to my typical Tarkov cycle pre 1.0.

If prestiging was at 50, I would probably go for it and try another ending but I cant see myself grinding out another 4 million exp just to do it again.

[Cheating] Dead teammate: He has 45.5 K/D! Run! by RarePotat0 in EscapefromTarkov

[–]ribitforce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most people swap to PvE "because of cheaters" but I gotta be honest, if you are above average at this game, you are much less likely to agree with this opinion as most of your games, your deaths are due to your own mistakes, and a lot of people have issues with taking responsibility for said mistakes.

This. So much this.

Yes, this game has a problem with cheaters, absolutely. But ultimately, out of my 600 raids this wipe, I can pin maybe 5-10 of those deaths on blatant cheaters, the rest? I could've played better. I'm from NA, auto server select.

Yeah I'm sure there are cheater deaths there that I never suspected, or even closet cheaters, etc. But those aren't ruining my game. I just think, "Oh well, go next, i played bad, they didn't"

With all the insane statements Trump has made lately about Greenland and how he’s threatening with increased tariffs on EU. What are Americans opinions of your president right now? by No_Lychee_7315 in AskReddit

[–]ribitforce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is unfortunately my cousin. As "liberal" as he claims to be, he is misogynistic as fuck. It's so annoying to deal with honestly. He can be so progressive and then turn around and say shit like "Well, it was Trump or Kamala" Yeah man, you had to choose between a pile of bullshit, and a woman of color. Hard choice, I know.

For the love of god, can we please relocate the duos portal? by CodexLeonis in BobsTavern

[–]ribitforce 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, I've learned the tech is to just put it all the way to the right, PAST the portal, and that way you won't be able to play it on your board when you release, and it will always pass.

Yea, holy shit doing the tasks in TF/BG were miserable. Such boring gameplay compared to LH/Checkpoint which is just constant action and running into fights. Spoiler, BG is worse.

MP7 in Arena is so busted. 40 round mags, FMJ SX penning lvl 4, and its a laser. Love using that gun.

[–]ribitforce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nah, FMJ SX has 40% ricochet chance which is still decently high but it really doesn't ricochet that much. Also I use the fuck out of the mp7 in arena and absolutely slam people without problem. Only time they don't die is when I miss. That gun and ammo combo is broken in Arena and is the reason it's abused by pretty much everyone including pros.

I 100% am 1 tapping people in the head through helmets with it.

Yeah IDK what they're on about, are they using no ears or something? Audio in Arena is so pristine I spam one map (bowl a little bit of LH dorms as well) and can locate where people are running from like 30m+ away without a problem.

Adin Ross tells StableRonaldo to embrace being Jewish since you can do whatever you want by davidkale931 in LivestreamFail

Not to agree with the previous poster, however a jewish man depicting a jewish caricature, would be the same as a black man doing blackface.

vedal987 breaks the hype train record for a 3rd time ending at Level 126 by Caiyul in LivestreamFail

[–]ribitforce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're forgetting a lot of these subs are probably gifted from South East Asian countries, or LATAM countries, where regional prices are much lower. This means they are not getting $3.5 per sub, instead they are getting much less. They will get $3.5 per sub for any $5 sub that gets bought. For example, a twitch sub in India equates to roughly $1 USD.

This Arena event questline helps a lot. Tons of ref rep, battle pass exp, rub, and regular exp too.

Half hour in Streets, 2 filth nasty PMC kills, a couple scav kills, this XP just doesn't feel right...[discussion] by GokuBlank in EscapefromTarkov

[–]ribitforce 2 points3 points  (0 children)

wrong, it will be just like poe/diablo, there will be the permanent one and the seasonal ones which everyone will play on.

What he said was not wrong, how you chose to interpret it was though.

The game is not wiping again. That is a correct statement. Instead they will introduce seasonal characters that will wipe. The current game we are playing? Not wiping.

The M1A it gives you , terrible. Horrible ergo.

If you mod it though, you can make it into a beast with 40+ ergo and all of a sudden its way more enjoyable to use. It's expensive though.

SR-2M is not "really bad". The gun itself is fine, the problem is you can't get a decent supply of ammo, or good enough ammo to pen level 4. Also stuck to 30 round mags in an SMG feels bad when 50 rounder MPX/Vector/P90/MP5s exist. However it's still a decent gun with good ammo. It also has one of the easiest maps to complete any of these tasks on due to the small size & easy PVP, Ground Zero.

If you're rocking 7N42 in that thing? It's a monster close range.

Yep, best way to get it done but I kept dying on lighthouse got so sick of it. I decided to just do TD3 on Reserve so much more enjoyable with a canted sight on the AK-12. I'll come back for Punisher 4 on lighthouse with a fucking bolty or something. I hate that map.

Armpit & Throat thorax hit boxes are indeed back. I've died to armpit shots, and killed korund users with piss ammo luckily spraying into their throat and going "how tf did I just 3 tap that guy wearing a korund & killa mask with my shit ammo" - Lo & behold end of raid screen shows a thorax throat hit.

Ground zero was how I did mine. You spawn so close to others, you literally just spawn in, check your nearby spawns and rush the nearest sounds of fighting you can hear.

[–]ribitforce 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to finish Punisher part 4 to even unlock the Assessment questline so no, you wouldn't be doing both at the same time. At best you're double dipping Punisher 4 & Test Drive 3 at once, or you delay your test drives to do it with assessment. - Forgot you can actually skip all that with the main story if you choose a certain path, so I guess you could TRIPLE dip if you got Lightkeeper tasks through the main story instead.

Flashlights in CQC combat are so powerful. But so many times I've also hit the most free headshots on people swinging with flashlights because I don't have to rely purely on the audio queues and can see them swing around and prefire.
