hello internet posted:I find playing my PMC way less stressful. Having to wonder whos safe to shoot gets annoying. Having a stash completely full of poo poo helps you get over gear fear when you just need to make some drat space. Condensed milk + propital will get you exactly 5 minutes of dehydration while getting healed. Just lay in a bush somewhere, pop the milk, propital up the vain and wait. Get a water bottle to re-hydrate later and heal up any damage and extract, because extraction is also a part of that quest.

Easy if you have the time but i am obviously busy this week. I don't know the best map tbh. On Factory I would have to wipe the server in order to farm them. I think Customs is best bet

Im having so many positive VOIP interactions that end with us extracting together and saying merry christmas. what a wonderful world. Most of the interactions start with us performing a ceremonial firefight in which we nearly kill each other

Yeah, I’m utterly floored, I thought for sure VOIP was going to be unbearable and toxic but it’s been great. Especially on SCAV runs.

I've got it off and don't plan on turning it on. I do wonder sometimes if people are trying to communicate with me at all or not though.

I do wonder sometimes if people are trying to communicate with me at all or not though. they probably are. people are generally pretty talkative, especially towards the end of the raid when all the serious sweaty pmcs are out. i actually was questing on reserve yesterday, got gut shot by a sniper and was dying of hunger and thirst, then came across a party of four scavs that threw me some healing and escorted me to the pmc/scav extract and we all got out together. was a good time

I've already lost count of how many times VoIP has either saved my life or helped me avoid a fight I didn't want to have. I highly recommend turning it on. It's also great for when you want to be nice to newbies and whatnot, I was able to get a pair of hatchlings to follow me and do their quest on night factory while I guarded them and they both thanked me profusely before sprinting to the exit.

You might as well have it on, even if you never plan on talking. The number of times enemy players give themselves away by being chatty is worth it, if nothing else.

The small one off conversations you have with your opponents intermittently as you sit in your respective corners while healing before all hell breaks loose again makes VOIP worth it. And in my small amount of time played during this wipe I've encountered few trolls. It's mostly guys that at the least attempt to act nice before they plan on backstabbing you when you aren't looking. I also recommend turning it on even if you don't plan on talking back.

I’ve only had one negative VOIP interaction. I was a PMC nearing extract and a scav came up and said he was friendly, offering me a labs key. I declined and started to walk away, and he tried to shoot me. Wound up blasting him and getting that key anyway. Otherwise it’s been amicable on both scav and PMC runs.Incoming Chinchilla posted:6 or 7. Easy if you have the time but i am obviously busy this week. Would it be feasible to go in with another person who is marked so scavs rush your position and you can shoot them that way?

The closest thing I’ve had to a bad experience was one of the first scav runs I did on interchange. It was dark and I was in the back of goshan and I heard a woman’s voice speaking Russian, and I thought to myself “did they add female scavs?” Then she came around the corner and shot me in the face. I retrospect I realized she was probably asking if I was friendly.

Voip has shown me that I am truly evil deep down and has found me consistently lying to and betraying every pmc that tries to be friendly. I'm a very very nice scav though. Scav code best code.

I hit Santa and just let him finish me off, I was a naughty boy. Next raid, I find him in the basement of Old Gas Station, nearly poo poo my loving pants and he gives me some sort of a new pipe wrench? At least it sold at Mechanic for 70k so that's something.

Started playing this game a little again. After my first PMC run it said I'd lost 0.1 scav rep. Thought that was only supposed for playing as a pscav? What gives? edit: On further research it appears I must have accidentally killed santa. oops Psycho Society fucked around with this message at 05:00 on Dec 26, 2021 |

I played two games tonight with my friend who also just bought this dumb game and it kinda sucks when one person in your squad gets merc'd immediately. I understand this isn't exactly the spectator mode on death kind of game but I had secretly hoped that maybe it was?? I'm not sure my friend was entirely sold on it based on his first two raids lol.

Scavving into lighthouse at night, me and some other pscav (who i assume didnt have a mic) were teaming up and walking around. Since its night, we both ended up walking off a cliff where i thought it was low enough that we would be fine. Broke both of our legs. I drop him an AFAK, he heals and keeps it. Fine. We limp along for a while, before I heard the sound of a PAINKILLER being popped. This motherfucker just cracked open a bottle of ibuprofen. He starts making his way to the extract and i spam voice lines until he comes back, when i drop another medkit he just picks it up and looks at me blankly. Sorry, "Volodarchik Dzhentelmen" but you should have loving shared.

Was just scavving on customs when I came across the giant christmas tree in the middle of dorms, with two scavs circling it counter-clockwise while aiming at the sky. They periodically would start firing off rounds for a bit on and off again. Weird as hell.

It sounds like it may only be for killing player scavs. I'm jackassing around Factory right now and haven't lost any rep killing bots. In fact I somehow managed to gain .02 and I'm not sure how. Things are screwy right now in any case.

I think I'm getting rep for killing PMCs that have already killed scavs and I don't know if that's a regular thing or if it's a bug but I feel like it's a bug.
