i took the mission Burans AK-74N today. I forayed into a small part of ground zero before finishing the missions.

I don't know what Madfinger Games has planned, but they could easily make a horror shooter with some of the sounds I heard while being out there.

Something is brewing in Ground Zero, and I am scared to find out what.

Some guns I’d like to see in the near future

One of these is from my personal collection. I’ll let you guess.

But yea instead of AK and AR variants to death, service weapons from other countries would be an amazing addition

Sulfuric Acid

WHERE

WHEEEEEERE

Also if you curious, the Acetylene tank consistently spawns in the TB warehouses. If you go to gunny’s main quest location, the open warehouse has an acetylene tank that spawns in the back left corner consistently.

Edit: Blue Lagoon area. I spent about 5 minutes in the Fanny Paradise area and found it immediately

Black Market? Player tasks?

I’ve been thinking. We have ways to buy the things we need, but sometimes tasks are simply nigh-impossible due to item shortages. This is from a PvE standpoint, but I think this could fit for PvP too.

Now listen, I’m gonna say the T word. Tarkov, in many of the things I do not like about it, does well with having a Flea Market. I think that having a Player Driven economy for certain items is fantastic.

Now, I do think there should be a player driven Task board.

Simple as posting a job to the market like “Hand over 1 one time pad key sheet”. But instead of to Banshee, it’s to a *player*. That way the later guys have a reason to do things, and the loot being scooped up isn’t just sent off to Gunny for pennies on the dollar.

Or “Get player Noob69420 to task location, and guard them till the task is complete”. Once the task is complete, you’re paid $8k cash or the material equivalent.

This ties in with the black market. Having a player driven black market is an important aspect. Being able to access a factions part of it from Base would be nice, and opening it to three factions at specific COP’s like Vulture would be even cooler.

I think we need a notepad

Last night, I did Brokers M9A1 C pistol.

First and foremost, it was actually super difficult. Mostly due to the Lotus Circle goons in the area.

But it was also hard on my PC. Why?

I had to tab out constantly to use my notepad.

Dev’s, can we have a notepad in this game please?

Edit: I am aware that real notepads exist lol. It would simply be nice to put it in a game menu where it’s persistent and not prone to me losing it like every other notepad I’ve ever owned.

Someone explain body armor to me.

After seeing some responses to my frustrations over Lotus Circle, I’ve come to understand that body armor may not be what I thought it was.

Seeing the chart above, can someone tell me what I should be wearing?

My handshake is at lvl3 rn so use that as reference.

The Lotus Circle Gang are busted

150 meters. A bush. Full tilt sprinting. IIIA++ plate on. Kitted out AK-15 with Vortex sight. 7.62x39 57-N-231C loaded.

I DIDNT EVEN SEE THE GUYS. I GOT SHOT FIFTEEN TIMES BY ONE DUDE IN THE HEART! I WAS FACING HIM!

Seriously tho nerf these guys because it’s really frustrating to get killed by a guy I can’t even see like that.

Can we have earplugs for the Heli Rides?

Please

Edit: yea I didn’t know that. But thanks for the heads up. I’m leaving this up for others to see though.

Edit 2: alright yeah I get it it’s O

THATS ENOUGH!

I like Empulse, some notes for 1047

Yo! Empulse is fun!

I loved SG1 and liked SG2, and I have some notes for Empulse.

The hammer is the first one: the hit distance feels inconsistent, and I’m not sure how to describe it. What I do know, is that if you’re marginally better than the enemy team with the hammer, you’re untouchable. A small change to movement (which I will detail) is probably the fix.

ADS is kinda odd. Why have ADS if it’s just a minor zoom? Lemme use the sights! Lemme put a 2x, 3x, 4x, heck an 8x on my SMG!

Left and right movement has 0 penalty, which means players can strafe LR infinitely and just like, not get hit. There should be a stacking movement reduction for LR movement that makes strafing a second, not first option.

If I throw the ball (any ball) it should deal damage. I think it’s funny if I hit an enemy player with the Intel ball

Now for things I adore:

The movement (aside from strafe) is *amazing*. Like super awesome.

The speed grenade literally makes me say “gotta go fast!” Every time

Gun damage is amazing

Mechs are balanced and feel good

Game modes are interesting and diversified

That’s all! Love you 1047! Hopefully this is the one!

Donation Drive

Howdy folks! We all have a similar goal in mind. If you’re PvE like I am, I know that you’ve probably got stacks on stacks of spare kit, guns, meds, and most importantly, keys.

Tonight, I’m going to get on, handpick my most duplicated loot, and drop it in the dono box for new players. I encourage others to do the same.

With the uptick in new players right now, I think it’d be nice for the more advanced players to drop some little-needed loot in the donation box.

u/the_shortbus_ — 24 days ago

Where do you go to loot?

Howdy!

I know I just posted asking what faction everyone chose (a very high number of Mithras players, tall keep that number up!) but now I’m curious about loot locations.

Where is the best loot? And subsequently, what should I be looking for when I go there?

BACK IN ACTION!

WOAH BABY! Back in action with a new X4! A rare kudos to Amazon Support for replacing it outright.

Anyways if you want the case I’ve got 3D printed here, https://makerworld.com/models/2657757?appSharePlatform=copy

I’ll be making a cover for it to make sure I don’t repeat my previous “smushing” incident (you’re welcome DCC fans), it’s linked here https://www.printables.com/model/1711320-xteink-x4-retrocase-4c-snap-on-cover

Oh… rip.

I bought this bad boy a couple of weeks ago, did the whole CrossPoint thing, and have been loving it! Printed a case and everything.

Unfortunately… it has broken. I’ve ordered a new one, but if anyone knows of a print that adds a screen cover to the case I would love to have it.

I got this XTEINK x4 yesterday and it’s been great!

Except….

I’ve been trying to read a specific novel and it does this every time I get to Ch. 5. Idk how to stop
It.
