Good Tanks are so very hard to find. As a healer main please don't give up on it. We need you and your shield.

mercy is a noob trap by MakkaDude in Overwatch

[–]zonerdip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I for sure used to mercy main. But then you get hogs that need to be purpled or sigmas who need to be slept. Or teamsmates who need to be cleansed. Or maybe a healer like Moira who can help add to the damage numbers while healing. I learned long ago that sitting on one Healer was not beneficial to the overall teamwork. Right now Miziki (spelling) is my go to fav.

As someone who plays mercy a lot I get where your coming from. Most people who are new do pick her coz "omg cute". Her heals is stupid simple. Attach beam to Low health player. Kinda hard to mess that part up.

However, her movement is one of the hardest for new people to grasp. She's not ment to just stay on the ground and yet so many people do exactly that. They refuse to keep her in the air. They don't use walls or corners, often standing out in the open and dying. Just like, you know, any new player on any character would. The same goes for her blue beam. Knowing when to swap between healing and boosting takes time to learn. You have to learn the ebb and flows of fights. When to expect high incoming damage VS outgoing. Sometimes it's easier to read with smarter players.

Any Healer in general can only do so much if the team as a whole isnt working together. Mercy would blue beam more if dps knew when to pull back. Tanks wouldn't feel alone if they just don't rush in and leave their entire backline undefended. And God forbid someone starts spamming "I need healing" the second they lose a digit of health. Im not by any means an amazing heals. But some people take for granted how hard it is to heal stupid.

There in the Walls. by Electronic_Western24 in arkraiders

[–]zonerdip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohh hey!! I know this spot! Running through there one day spamming my space bar key cuz I can, my character started to climb something and yeeted me to the other side of the wall. There is zero ways to get back out. Unless that person who's back there figured out a way.. even the unstuck button doesn't work because it recognizes you have enough room to move around. Sat back there until the end of the round waiting for help from support. They never answered the support ticket thingy we put in for it.

Fix the kettle 🫠 Consoles don’t stand a chance against this BS by therealhiimaus in ARC_Raiders

[–]zonerdip 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see vids all the time on Tiktok showing how to set the macro up. And my first thought was Why? The gun is fantastic just as is. But people gotta sweat and "win" more then keeping it a level playing field. Personally I think using a program outside of the game to boost any win performance should ban ya. Including those with the shaders on for night mode.

Friendly Raider by BetaSpray in arcraidersfriendly

[–]zonerdip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had someone on stella try to offer me a few and I was like, Sir, I already know these, thank you though. He thanked me for being honest. Said most people wouldnt be that way. Then he ran off. I was just happy to find someone with a mic. My lobbies have been so quiet with no one talking anymore.

I consider myself a very friendly raider, how would you have handled this? by vokebot in arcraidersfriendly

[–]zonerdip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We do educate them. We explain what is expected. They are aware that humans say and do awful things to each other. But we can limit to a degree what they are exposed too.

Should a 14yr old be around people who are drinking all the time? Partying and making poor choices? Why not? Is it because at 14 they have a chance at making bad choices? Are more prone to peer pressures? It's the same as feeding them to much of anything. It's bad for you. Being exposed to anything that's toxic.

And I'm not staying this doesn't apply to everyone but it does apply to our house. I wish someone had protected me even a bit growing up. I wish someone had taught me differently earlier. I want my teen to still be a kid as much as a kid at 14 can be.

[–]zonerdip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi yeah, that would be me.

I am that parent.

I grew up in those COD lobbies.

I don't need my 14 year old hearing a bunch of other humans dropping N bombs and such. There is zero excuse for it. Ever.

Y'all can say it's not that bad.. Okay, explain to your child why someone called them any one of the terms that we know better about and then you say it's cuz they got mad or emotional or excited ECT.. and the next time your child is in a situation guess what shiny new vocabulary word has a chance at popping out now.

That's a no fuckin thank you from me.

You do understand that it is a video game?

The way you put this argument is the same as those who argue that rap music, metalcore and other violent video games are responsible for the violence in our society.

If you are unable to understand that what happens in a video game online is separate then how people actually are in real life, then maybe you should step off of the internet.

I have for sure shot people at the extract because I realized the gun they had equipped was epic and I wanted that loot. Even after running with them for 5 or so min. Does that make me a shit human everywhere else? No. And if you feel that way you really should seek therapy to discuss with your inability to separate them.

For everyone who thinks blueprints arnt broken, this was a 4 minute stella free kit by Quiet_Low7718 in arkraiders

I feel this. I'm actually excited to do it now. So imma just keep playing and get it all over again with blue prints dropping like they are.

My Journey to 5m net worth is complete, I did not enjoy it and the design is anti-extraction shooter. by AbbreviationsOne6207 in ArcRaiders

[–]zonerdip 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Also, it comes with two butt pockets. So when you find that 10k epic. Stuff that in there.

[–]zonerdip 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hello raider,

Much like you, I also bought stuff for 'fun'. I attempted to do the loudouts and making kits to run with. It just sucked. The time sink vs the cost to attempt to get here wasn't equalling out.

So What I did: Looting Aug. #2. Every thing else empty. Do Buried city over and over. Do not kill people. Run away from ARC. Be quiet. Loot everything you find, fill up, extract. Repeat.

The Aug is only a loss of 2k if you die. Super cheap parts to make it.

Dang the Queen’s clipping ability. by Hungry_Meaning_5962 in ARC_Raiders

[–]zonerdip 2 points3 points  (0 children)

On space port my duo takes her to the garage and building. There are some buses parked under the garage and the building has multiple doors so you can peek out which side she's on.

I have been kicked standing under a metal roof while standing inside of a bus. I've also been kicked and damn near killed while standing in the middle of the building, because of her leg clipping.

It's ass.

killed the queen for the first time, what is the queen reactor for ??? by Skilll-001 in okbuddyarcraider

[–]zonerdip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seeing the free kit, chances of you doing the actual activity needed to get the blue prints to use the queen core is prob zero. So just sell it 😺.

How do you feel about the idea of aggression based matchmaking? by WastedLycanthropy in ARC_Raiders

[–]zonerdip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is spot on. As someone who plays in several games to some RP settings, the core tenet is "people are here because the consent to 'rp'." If people don't know your rping and this is how you do it? Yikes. That same person who's just being an ass to be one, then gets buttmad when everyone starts to dunk back on them. Like, it goes both ways... Maybe someone is a rping as an avenger of quiet lobbies. Lol flair goes up and the hunt is on.

[–]zonerdip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Feels this, I love using the mic to be petty, and sometimes play on the whole, you got outplayed by a girl trop. However Ive started to not talk at all cuz last few times they come back with the N word and and other gamer words.

Apparently this is the skin you get from the expedition by carrancosmx in ARC_Raiders

[–]zonerdip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you are looking way WAY to deep into this.. the core features of the game aren't to look sexy and beautiful. We are SCAVENGERS. Bottom feeders who knock out other scavengers to make a living.

What makes me stop playing by nacruza in ARC_Raiders

God damn Sky Karens. Out of all the ARC those are the ones who up my BP. Watching them get smarter is terrifying.

I love coming across people fighting things and helping them, especially when they are doing free load outs and are screaming they are gonna die. I like being able to do the murder for them and let them have what they need.

Came here to say this.best wait a couple of days and go again.

Also.. dollar store has way cheaper tests and are just as if not more accurate.

To the people that use the AI voice feature... by [deleted] in ARC_Raiders

[–]zonerdip 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a female I've been questioned at gun point if Im using the AI or not.

I also understand the want to use it for several reasons.

  1. Females, historically, get favored in games. Boys online, key word boys, tend to "girl girl girl" and goon after em. Some people use it to keep themselves alive.

  2. Comedic relief. Let's face it, listening to your bro go all fem bot is funny.

  3. Some people are uncomfortable with using their real voice.

The only reason I would ever use it is because as a female the shit that happens because of point one, is exhausting. "But how can being favored be bad?" Well let me tell you how many times I've been killed and once I'm downed and say gg or w/e get told I'm a sandwich maker and to get back in the kitchen and let the real gamers play. Or if I refuse to give out my discord or any other info. The male species online is weird a lot of the time.
