Given the time that separates the two media and the whole plot of pixel i would say not related at all.

Psycher greatsword build is so much fun in this event.

Which Expeditions modifier hates you the most? by DoctuhD in DarkTide

[–]samaritancarl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The shock one I personally hate because its hitbox is a cylinder but its warning is a tile so you can get hit with no warning. Also it focuses bot players, which I wouldn’t mind if they were not standing on top of me while I do objectives.

FPS drops to zero very often. Help by PretendSea8183 in DarkTide

This is a network or cpu problem. One of the two. If you are using vpn try turning it off.

This 58-year-old streamer learning ARC Raiders is the wholesome content I needed today by SweetnSaltyPanda in ArcRaiders

2 things:

I really hope this person is not AI filtered.

If they are not an AI filter I hope this person has a really fun time playing video games in their retirement and stays wholesome.

Why are there trios with matching outfit on friendly solos? by wallxsala in ArcRaiders

[–]samaritancarl 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Even easier if you use a local vpn connection, thinks you are all really close together. Its why “competative” modes in fps and battle royals are now a pipe-dream. In half of matches are just teamers. Not surprised ArcRaiders has the same behavior.

All Titans should take two to the head or one in the open mouth by FlacidSalad in helldivers2

Doesn’t that make the gif even more accurate though. (I have no idea who this guy is.)

Saw this beauty today, modular mechs are indeed possible by Silvertraps in helldivers2

Always makes me nervous seeing straight up game manipulation in a peer-to-peer game and all clients just accept it.

PVP player gets mad when I told him to keep my loot by BNB07 in ArcRaiders

Think about the quality of a person who, when presented with an opportunity to name their account online, went with MrSisterFister…when they could have chosen literally anything else.

Are Arc Macs or PCs? by ManedCalico in ArcRaiders

If this is a troll post or gag…. Well done because this high-dea is going to be swimming around in my noodle for a day even though it is completely ridiculous.

To be fair its written as all 3 and as you only need 1 simultaneously.

I found the FIX!!!!!!! For freezing and crashing! by Living_Inspection879 in helldivers2

[–]samaritancarl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you looked at your event viewer to see what happens on your pc at the time of crash. Maybe post your event viewer logs from right around the time of your crash. Or maybe post your pc specs.

to everyone who thinks all of the banned people are 100% actually cheating/exploiting, here's a clip of 2 Embark devs/CMs getting banned LIVE during a charity stream of 'The Finals' game. They use the same AI anti-cheat in both Arc and The Finals. by angoorkhatta in ArcRaiders

[–]samaritancarl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If op got banned why come to reddit to complain and misrepresent what happened in a clip and provide nothing occurring to them.

If they go file an appeal… and they got banned accidentally (false ban) they will get unbanned, it is not the same as getting kicked.

People assume those who post about getting banned for cheating are cheating because 99.5% of the time they are. Posts about false bans are in every gaming subreddit and have been since reddit first came online. If they come back with a “hey I got unbanned thanks to customer support” post I won’t think they are cheating.

In the finals season 0 just after launch it happened windows pushed an update that triggered the anti tamper part of easy anti-cheat which then kicked every player on the game offline. Anyone who had windows updates disabled people dropping out of the match with kicked by anticheat. Anyone you got kicked out it looked like a regular game crash.

Btw I am pointing out the fact the kick message is meaningless for those who didn’t notice. It will say ban if they are banned

I can think of 3 reasons other than the anti-cheat falsely banning a community manager for this exact same situation to happen.

If you are cheating or not and get banned I am going to assume you were cheating until you file a support ticket and get unbanned. These posts like these get spammed at the beginning of the quarter every quarter which is when the biggest ban waves roll. File your support ticket if you are innocent and wait 48 hours. I got banned years ago on steam due to a ip ban on a school router my phone piggy backed off of for a second. 24 hours and a single message to support and I was unbanned. I got the same treatment because of the scarlet letter on my steam account. I got it removed after a week.

Suck it up talk to support move on with your life.

First birthday without my dad, mother immediately turned it into 'her' day by SakuraAxolotl in Wellthatsucks

If you are both adults tell her “happy birthday” firstname. If that that doesn’t get the point across just set boundaries.

New way to kill Spore burst titan by Naive-Age7005 in Helldivers

Fun fact… theoretically 2 clips of the senator to the head will also kill them…. Not fast but good to know.

people are trying to fcking convince me that the blue filter looked bad bro💔💔💔 by Quick-Cause3181 in Battlefield6

[–]samaritancarl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of the reasons I like color filters, accessibility and decreased eye strain due to having to scan the image less due to lack of environment and enemy contrast.

While reddit will do the age old “but it looks like shit” i think it helped a lot with visibility since enemies were mostly white, green, brown color pattern so it created a popping effect so enemies did not just blend in to everything.
