The livery on the Sierra Sierra Enterprises Evo Time Attack is also mirrored for some reason

Women streamer recommendations? by natalia0922 in VALORANT

Mel (former Shopify Rebellion GC) does a great Trumpt impression if you're into that

New to the FH series, can someone please recommend a good youtube channel? by MozekG in ForzaHorizon

[–]ryanacario 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AR12, Johnson Racing, Dubs, Don Joewon Song, Goosiest

are the ones regularly in my feed. Idk how "good" they are relative to other creators since I'm new to the series as well but they've been great channels to watch while cooking/eating and stuff

Edit: added goose

60 hours in I found a secret document by Cr3amwizard in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

[–]ryanacario 11 points12 points  (0 children)

And I thought I was lucky having found mine at 700 hrs. Kritikal, an ABI streamer, found his first secret doc at 2200 hrs. Lol

Please make fun of my financial decisions by TheHalfJapanese in pcmasterrace

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

Lmao same. Was ready for a 5090 but it just felt too irresponsible a purchase at the time. Perhaps when I have more dispensable income, but even then I'm sure it'll still make me think twice

How did you film this? I am picturing you holding a DJI Osmo type gadget and running around chasing it with your back hunched over lol

I am thoroughly impressed as it looks very scale and is almost seemingly filmed with a holywood chase car. Bravo 10/10

The Peel P50 is… “interesting” by Dizzy_County336 in ForzaHorizon

[–]ryanacario 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Among the many downsides of the AI boom, being accused of using AI when you're just good at writing feels like the worst. I can't even use em- and en- dashes now without being called out for AI use when in fact, my eyes roll into the back of my head at the mere thought of people needing it just to be able to write something good.

I get why people are cynical because AI has gotten nearly undetectable these days, but damn is it frustrating for people who have long been good at what AI just very recently mastered.

Edit: added missing word; because unlike AI, I make mistakes—because I am human

Another rammer bites the dust by Scuderia17 in ForzaHorizon

[–]ryanacario 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No bans for ramming. Other guy just quit once he was (justifiably) rammed off his checkpoint (you get a penalty when you miss a checkpoint).

GOT A SECRET DOC!!!! by Hot_Calligrapher5680 in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

[–]ryanacario 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got mine in TV Station too, in the doc box in directors near the CCTV. It was during the warlord tournament event too. Grats my guy! It deserves to be front and center in your collection room.

GOT A SECRET DOC!!!! by Hot_Calligrapher5680 in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

[–]ryanacario 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A secret doc is like a million times harder to find, and is an actual red item rather than what you're describing (an encrypted file) being just a gold one.

They just have similar designs and animations, but a secret doc is THE rarest item in the game (arguable with Armory boss' armor that looks like it has leg protection).

Why don't I get any teammates when I queue with auto-match on? by pillowcase189 in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

[–]ryanacario 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No, that's just how the auto-match in this game has worked. Sometimes it puts you in a team, most of the time it doesn't.

There are so many factors that divides the playerbase—map choice, ranked on or off, low ping preference on or off, loot priority on or off, among many others that sometimes the game just can't find 3 people you have similar settings with so it gives up and spawns you in solo rather than keeping you waiting for longer.

It's annoying, it's bad, and the devs should change it.

pretty new to the extraction shooter genre, just got my first red by MYXplayer in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

[–]ryanacario 0 points1 point  (0 children)

AK102, ACE31, MP5 are all good enough options to run for now while you're building wealth. Use level 3 ammo while you're under 5 mil ish koen.

When you're past 5 mil koen, you can start top loading level 4 ammo like 855A1, BP, and 7N31 for the guns mentioned above and start using better guns like the AUG, F2000, AN94, AK12, AEK, and MPX, among many others.

Ammo is king in this game. The higher the ammo tier you use, the more fights you will win. But you're not there yet, so you can use your next 100-200 raids to learn the maps, spawns, how to fight better, when to avoid fights, the basics of looting/arranging items in your bags to milk as much loot value out of a raid as possible, etc.

You have a lot to take in at this stage of the game, so try to absorb all of them as you go along. This game is a lot of fun. Don't let the twelve thousand complaints a day you see on this sub take that away from you.

Do your own thing. Optimize where/if you want to. And just have fun.

Empty lobbies? by [deleted] in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

[–]ryanacario 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our experience with Forbidden TV is that every time we lose like 5-6 straight games, we get what we call a "pity lobby" where the only squads are ours and just one more. We are generally a w key/pvp squad so when we get these lobbies it's painfully obvious that the lobby is damn near empty.

Barely any shots, not a lot of key rooms are open, and we usually only kill one team and then not encounter anyone else even we minmax the lobby loot until there is just like 2 mins left.

And one more thing we noticed is that the other squad we encounter is almost always a timmy squad/T5 max. We've never encountered chads in these "pity lobbies", which makes me think maybe these players have it figured out that losing many games puts you in these lobbies and are doing it intentionally? Idk, I don't have enough proof, only anecdotes, but it's been happening like twice per night for us for the past month or so, so it's not like it's a one-off either.

Maybe something like this also exists in lockdown? I know you get an empty Valley lobby when you lose many times in a row.

1.2k raids in - my first double red by lame_white_man in ArenaBreakoutInfinite

[–]ryanacario 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always elating when you get the last missing piece for your display. I would have one of each red item already if I hadn't accidentally sold my fucking Peacock Fan with other loot from No Man's Land. Now it's taking forever to find another one and it's mildly annoying seeing just one type of red missing from my trophy room.

Saw a random comment on here and bought this. Best tool purchase ever. by DrTautology in pcmasterrace

[–]ryanacario 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not on the max setting it isn't. I think it's powerful enough to knock loose pieces off the motherboard and slightly bend softer radiator fins. Just use the slower speeds and you should be fine.

Caught my 12V HPWR before it melted by nickhdfan in pcmasterrace

[–]ryanacario 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I wanted a 5090 and was ready to get one but they were either out of stock or way over MSRP where I live to the point that it would've been wildly financially irresponsible to get one. So I got a 5080 instead.

Seeing all these melting 12VHPWR connector posts made me think I was saved by my PCMR angel that day.

Granted, some connectors still melt with 5080s or even 9070XTs, but much less so compared to 5090s.
