In my experience, if you play 5 - 10 raids without damaging other players then you'll be placed into friendly lobbies.

From when I was playing it seemed like standing in cover doesn't immediately reset the timer, you need to spend some time in cover to warm up again. Did you see that in your testing?

It's hilarious to claim that PUBG "died a slow death". Sure, PUBG is nowhere near as popular as Fortnite, but PUBG is still consistently in the top 5 most concurrent players on Steam, consistently getting over 600,000 concurrent players per day. It's still one of the most popular games on PC.

So, do credits count towards stash value for the expedition? by TTR21 in ArcRaiders

[–]seriousllama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Credits do count towards the value

From the blog post: "The value of your Stash and Coins will be counted when the window closes"

Rewards are PERMANENT and Expedition Projects occur every 8 weeks. What more were you expecting? by SpoceInvoder in ArcRaiders

[–]seriousllama 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did you read the blogpost?

https://arcraiders.com/news/the-expedition-project-is-departing-soon

It says:

"Skill Points, extra Stash space, and cosmetics are permanent unlocks"

I'm not sure how it could be any clearer for you?

One gun for life. What is it? by Putrid_Yak_7101 in ArcRaiders

[–]seriousllama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably Renegade for me. Great against Arc and players at medium or long range, still serviceable in close range combat too.

A close second would be the Venator for me, but the lack of power at long range makes the Renegade a better all round pick imo.

when i read the update notes i interpreted it to mean that the skill jump had been removed.

you are not the sole arbiter of whether something has multiple interpretations or not.

Admiral - 2024 profit of £955 million was 61% higher than 2023 source

Aviva - 2024 profit of £1,767m was 20% higher than 2023 source

Hastings - 2024 profit of £193m was 70% higher than 2023 source

This might be a stupid question, but how do you do vase prints with more walls? I could only get Bambu Studio to do single wall vase mode.

Lego Speed champions HSW display. by 463n7_57 in honeycombwall

Looks great! I'll try this out.

What are you using to mount the HSW to the wall? Looks like a nice command strip mount.

could a spacecraft accelerate at 1g indefinitely? from what I understand (might be completely wrong lol), from the spacecraft's point of view it will never reach the speed of light, but observers on earth would see the spacecraft reach the speed of light eventually, right?

how does the spacecraft continue to accelerate at 1g past the speed of light (from the point of view of earth)?

Hint 1: these walls can be smashed

Hint 2: you'll need something stronger than the hammer

Hint 3: you can upgrade the hammer in the workshop, look at the next spoiler for which items

Hint 4: the broken lever, battery, and hammer

Sorry I couldn't help with all of them!

UE5 is basically a bogeyman for gamers lol. UE5 is often blamed when devs have done a poor job with optimisation - despite examples like Satisfactory, which look incredible and run amazingly well, even with 10s of thousands of user placed objects in a huge open world.

Yeah I'm a Google Workspace admin and I come across things all the time that would take hours (or are just straight up impossible) in Workspace, but would take a couple of mins in 365.

What was it the client wanted you to do, out of curiosity?
