DrBox posted:Ok, thanks. I'm not totally clear on why the docs case is helping. Is it just getting over a certain weight limit or is more better/faster? Trying to figure out of I should grab a second docs case to max out my gains. You would think steroids would be readily available and encouraged in this Russian video game. You just need to get over the weight limit. The docs case lets you stuff a ton of manuals in your container; before that, it used to be all about ammo boxes full of shotgun shells. If you really want to invest, you should fill the docs case with SAS drives. More weight per slot.

DrBox posted:EA and Steam just partnered up and more EA Games are coming to Steam again. Between that and this whole shift to "games as a service" or "live games" or whatever buzzword you want mean that these companies are seeing a new opportunity out there and are slower to outright dump a game. Look at how much post launch support Star Wars Battlefront 2 got. After a poo poo start and predatory mtx, people are saying it's in a pretty good place now. You can still hate on these companies while recognizing the change. Moral of the story is Apex is doing fine and is still fun. You should try it again! I'm still waiting for Titanfall 3 though. uhh the mtx is still bad and the only reason its being changed is because eu nations are starting to clamp down on them. theyre going back to steam because everyone uses steam and they didnt make up enough surplus from their own platform to outweigh losing steam sales. games as a service suck. apex was unfun at launch to me and the only br that i enjoy is pubg and ive tried them all. titanfall sucks. ea shuts down studios endlessly after running them into the ground and respawn is currently working on a vr game so lol

1001 Arabian dicks posted:but really, is there a reason to use the ASVAL over the VSS? what can you do with it that you can't do with a VSS? VAL's price is a relic of the fact that Tarkov's development happens at an unequal pace. The VAL/VSS are both meant to cost ~100k rubles and did for most patches prior to .10; but most guns were more expensive then. That the VSS is so cheap now is a fluke from the fact that Scavs spawn with them and add to the supply, and the gas mask filter trade, which used to be about 100k of value, now only comes out to about 40. Before that they were pretty much just aesthetic variations of one another using different weapon skills. Done for the same reason a lot of poo poo happens in this game, because it exists irl that way and the differences between them are minimal/don't translate very well to a video game.

If you log out and log in again you should be able to claim everything, the item move bug doesn't destroy inventory.

They use different weapon skills and you can put different stocks on the as-val to make to make the ergo stupid high or you can just put a canted pk-06 on a vss and call it a day

Stux posted:right but the actual reason is to create price floors so a magbox, which is an early game container to deal with limited stash space, doesnt get inflated in price and make it harder for new players to get when its one of the first cases youll be going for. To clarify for people that don't play the game, without price floors nobody would be picking up 85% of the items in the game because the value would get concentrated in the small subset of items the players want. The price-floors allow a consistent money supply to be injected into the game so that new players can actually *gasp* progress. People complaining about "inflation" or "deflation" in a goddamn video game should go play EvE or get a job as a stock trader. The game has plenty of cash sinks with meds, ammo, trader fees, and repairs. What it lacks is sinks on guns and rigs, which really are not a big deal. Ammo is usually 100k+ for a single raid if your running top tier and around 40-50k for mid-tier ammo, so there is plenty of cash-outflow to keep excessive price rises. If you play the game at all you will notice everything getting less valuable over time already. Even big ticket items like GC and FLIRs. I think all these idiots complaining about the "economy" just want everyone else to be unable to make money so that they can feel rich in a video game. twig1919 fucked around with this message at 05:54 on Mar 8, 2020 |

Even if this guy is lag switching, you can’t help but blame BSG for not fixing their netcode. I mean the game literally verifies every item movement to the item verification server so items don’t get duped, but it seems like they don’t want spend the time improving the netcode or maybe don’t want to pay for the servers/bandwidth. Honestly given the choice I’d rather have server verified combat over constant item verification. But hey that’s just me. As far as these upcoming changes go they should just get rid of all of these garbage quests and then remove the flea market. The flea market is more or less a product of bad fetch quests. And yes, PUBG did allow lag switching for the first couple months of beta. That’s how people were killing everyone at the beginning of the match. You could lag switch before the plane left the starting island and use the demo guns or punch everyone else once the timer ended. On their end, they’d be on the plane or parachuting out and die once the lag switcher reconnected. Funny, annoying but also fixed relatively quickly.
