They they go and complain about it in the down Facebook groups after, that's all I see. I like mostly friendly play but way too many pussies in this game. (And black people, guess they get to feel consequence free like the streets of nyc/Portland)

I never attacked anyone first, but on the raids I used a key, I was prepared to. The simple lack of self-awareness of someone coming in and not immediately leaving would be enough for me to mow them down.
If I spend a key to open a locked door, I have claimed the room and everything in it. If you open the door, see me and come in anyway, you have become hostile.
One time I had a guy open the key'd door on Dam and sees me standing there with my barrel in his face and says -- "Oh, my bad!" He closed the door and ran away as fast as he could. Proper response.
However, a month back I had a particularly agonizing death. I spent a key on Spaceport and got a TON of great stuff. A guy came in so I fired a warning shot over his head and told him the room was taken. He took a few steps back, out of sight and never said anything. I waited with my sights trained on the door for more than a minute and never heard a sound so I assumed he fucked off. The moment I went back to looting I took a head shot and then a second to down me.
So, yeah. If I were still playing and you come in a locked room I opened, you're getting deleted. The people that double breach a room and complain about getting shot are just braindead faggots. Even if I choose not to be the aggressor in PvP doesn't mean that we're not competing for the same resources. My time is valuable and if your parents didn't teach you manners -- well, respawn it is.

I saw that video last night and was like "I gotta go use my pile of key cards. First one I used someone did exactly this.
I make it real fucking obvious too. Seal door. A couple trip wire fire grenades. A zappy mine. Even said "don't come in it's occupied" a couple times.
He died and started bitching, as expected. They should make a sign you can stick on doors that say "fuck off" or"knock first".
Side note. Here I am trying to use up key cards and I'm getting a new key card in each key card room.

This Reddit post made me realize the padded stock and horizontal grip are worthless. You're ADS speed actually slows down by 60% if you equip both. It doesn't improve it at all but worsens it. Embark really does thing fucking dumb on some things.

Naked runs in Stella are awesome. I was looking for 2 Ion Sputters and 3 Frequency Modulators and I finally got sick of spawning in 18-20 minutes. So I just did what
Sludig
told me and kept surrendering until I got a good spawn point and a full timer.
What happened next was hilarious. As you have one safe pocket.
I spawned one time right next to medical with a full timer and got an Ion Sputter, threw it in the safe pocket, then oh shit - a Combat Aggressive Mk 3 blueprint. Oh shit - a Modulator. Oh shit.... Hello Shredder.
So I had the Ion in my pocket and Mod and BP in main inventory and frantically started running towards extract naked as the day I was born. And I was down to about 2% health ducking around corners and still in a hallway praying the shredder didn't see me. I saw a couple blankets on the beds, recycled those on the fly and made myself a couple bandages so I was up to 50%. Then I heard the Bastion out in Cargo start blasting people.
So I snuck out of there and made it down to ground level. On the way I was looting random things and found a kettle. Which I am lucky I found because I got spotted by a wasp while people were fighting the bastion. So I downed that and hid and was going to wait out the fight. Guy next to me dies. surrenders. I looted his shield and guns and welp, he had another sputter and 2 Frequency mods. That's all I needed Along with that a Gas Grenade BP I didn't have yet and some bandages and shield chargers and his shields were at 50/100 so I was up and at em with full shields and full health - Waited for the bastion to die, went in and figured may as well join in on the loot fun, got 3 bastion cells. High tailed it the fuck out.
So in one naked run - ended up with my expedition requirements, a sweet BP, bastion cells, 40k to sell, and one hell of a story.

Patch Notes:
Not a big deal as they didn't nerf damage of Kettle and that was for macro users - still works great as a controller user and didn't notice any difference. I never used Trigger nades in PvP.
Just finished up Expedition requirements with 1.7 million in the bank so far and 40 days to go. I would bet I'm close to about 2.5-3 million so easy peasy to play and have a lot of fun now from here on out.
- Kettle
- Dev note: Reduced fire rate from 600 to 450. The previous fire rate was only realistically reachable by players using macros, which creates an unfair dynamic that favours using 3rd party software.
- Trigger ‘Nade
- Dev note: Trigger ‘Nade currently dominates PVP encounters, and players favour picking it over all our other grenades. This nerf aims to make it less usable as a “trigger-in-air” grenade, whilst keeping its usefulness as a sticky bomb. Damage falloff has been rebalanced to concentrate the damage closer to the center of the explosion, and deal less damage further away. The delay between triggering the grenade and it detonating, has been increased from 0.7s to 1.5s, giving players more time to react, and making it harder to time the detonation in air.
- Fixed a key card exploit that allowed players to keep room keys after using them.
- Lighting has been lowered in some areas on Stella Montis Night Raid making flashlights and listening more relevant.

I play pretty sweaty PVP and the game was nearly unplayable in my lobbies for the last 5 days or so.
Every single lobby is people with an inventory full of trigger grenades just spamming them like rocket launchers, so them getting changed means I can probably actually play again.
No mentioned of all the people exploiting walls/geometry to get out of bounds though, which means Stella is probably still off limits unfortunately.

Just go in nude. Best thing gets the pocket. I keep weapons and ammo as I get them and just use them next "naked" run. Eventually I eat a shredder and start over.
I spawned full timer into the metro office which I didn't know what a thing. Ofc five Raiders run in within the first 90 seconds lol.

Was watching the stream when they set up for that, the original idea was setting up a box with 4 of the zipline poles attached with barricades to make a 5 sided "house" around the person carrying the box, they noticed all the clipping as he was running through a shack, then the first person they met killed him pretty quick so that got scrapped as it took too long to setup lol. So they went with using just one extended barricade as a battering ram with explosives on it, which then led to using it through walls in their "rat trap" room, that was the one time it worked, all hell broke loose after that. Chat also thought they could use it on the matriarch to hit it's core.
Trigger nades needed a hard nerf, surprised they kept it to 3 stack instead of reducing it down to 1 stack for inventory space with the amount people carry around to spam it, alot of fights were turning into just spam the nades and get everyone down without even firing a gun, pretty ridiculous.

They nerfed the normal Pop spawns in all 2x maps. It is crazy how few I see when they were EVERYWHERE before this week.
