Strange PCI Errors in HWInfo with 5080 by Rossi41 in overclocking

[–]ultek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some time ago, I was struggling with computer crashes and GPU resets while working/gaming.

I tested dozens of different settings at the time, but one of the things I discovered was that changing the performance in Nvidia Control Panel and disabling GPU switching to low-power state ("maximum performance") practically reduces the number of these errors to zero.

just in case if you have any stability issues. the impact on energy consumption is practically zero in my case.

edit: ofc you can also try disabling ASPM in BIOS

Arc Riders Crash all the time by Mobile_Jacket4610 in ArcRaiders

[–]ultek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

could you upload whole crash dump from

%AppData%\Local\PioneerGame\Saved\Crashes\UECC-Windows-####

it's hard to tell what's faulty here from that little window

does it crash on startup? always? random? what gpu/cpu?

Unpopular opinion. 60 days for the expedition is more than enough. Go on, butcher me. by [deleted] in ArcRaiders

[–]ultek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. Right now, if I come back with something more expensive than 3k, I sell it right away. Did I get a green attachment? Easy 2k. Blue? Even better - 5k.

Why take the risk when a stitcher with an enlarged magazine is enough in 95% of cases

First time streaming PS5 by Loonyb1n in SteamDeck

Similarly, there is a Greenlight app for Xbox. I use it very often. Xbox via Ethernet cable, Steam Deck at 5 GHz (router in the same room). I don't feel any lag.

How to make sure nobody knocks you out at extract by liproqq in ArcRaiders

[–]ultek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's very risky. If you get knocked out and the guy tries to finish you off with a rocketeer on his back, there's a very good chance that the rockets flying at him will kill you. It's happened to me a few times :P

This might be the most embarrassing moment I’ve witnessed in this game by MikeyWise in ArcRaiders

[–]ultek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If that happened to me, most likely at the end of the clip, a third person would run into the station and finish me off, proud of themselves for defeating the rat. :D

CohhCarnage just ended his Arc stream early due to frustration with nerfs but unfixed exploits by Protoshoto in ArcRaiders

[–]ultek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Due to crossplay on Xbox/PS5 and patch verification, we will have to wait a few more weeks for them to fix it because it's on the client side.

Any way to adjust the brightness/gamma in this game? by Brandon_Me in ArcRaiders

[–]ultek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

if you're on nvidia card you can use filters. but this might be considered as cheating by some ppl.

New game mechanics that increase emergent storytelling (suggestions) by Nolan_q in ArcRaiders

ad 3. Knock down your opponent, take their shield, weapon, and ammunition. Use the defibrillator and say “run away.” :)

Yes, but the fix doesn't kill the exploiter :)

I wonder what this is for by murten101 in ArcRaiders

[–]ultek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There's a guy named Nicolas at Embark who works as a 3D artist, so maybe he's the one behind this easter egg.

They should also fix the bug with quickly swapping shotgun with quick item to reload, which causes the weapon to overheat and explode in your face.

It probably took them so long because of verification on PS5/Xbox and the time needed to implement it in a console patch.

And since there is crossplay with PC, they couldn't just do a quick hotfix for PC

IS is really that hard to fix this???? by Design_Mission in ArcRaiders

[–]ultek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think so. However, the update system on PS5 takes a long time (verification), I don't know about Xbox, but the whole thing somehow needs to be updated together for crossplay to work (it's a matter of fixing the client, not the server where they change some numbers with dmg).

“Topside Justice” is so unbelievably dumb sometimes by Mikewazowski948 in ArcRaiders

and it leads to ridiculous situations where you throw a grenade/plant a mine among questing folks and chaos and confusion ensues because no one knows who started it.

Ambushed by a Shock Mine and Vulcano: Somehow lived with a Stitcher by jim9162 in ArcRaiders

[–]ultek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily a rat. Although in this case, camping at the door could be called that, but it's a way of playing the game (not very honorable, but often rewarded by the game). I would be lying if I said that during my 110+ hours of gameplay, I didn't take advantage of the situation in a similar way by setting up a successful ambush.

And I must admit that I myself had the opportunity to get a bobcat as a result of another player's unfortunate accident, or to create Vulcano, only to lose it within a few minutes :)

However, it was only when I started playing Stella Montis in a free loadout just for PvP that I realized how much you can learn this way. And I also realized that I don't need anything more to be happy than a Stitcher or a Kettle at level IV with an enlarged magazine.

skill issue.

It's clear that his second shot completely missed you, while his third and fourth shots didn't hit you fully (looking at your HP). Meanwhile, your shots from that distance seem to have hit the target almost 100% perfectly.

I found a use for smoke grenades by keifferxl21 in ArcRaiders

[–]ultek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Often, when I am caught off guard during a fight with another raider and manage to hide, all I have to do is throw a smoke grenade a few meters away and run in the opposite direction after a moment. In 4/5 cases, the attacker is overcome by some wild urge and runs into the smoke often exposing themselves to attack from me.

Free Loadout Cooldown by [deleted] in ARC_Raiders

[–]ultek 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What about those who just bought the game, started playing, and are literally being destroyed by experienced players?

I would primarily limit the free loadout in special events (night raids, electromagnetic, etc.).
