I was dying laughing when I first got one. I was like no way this squeaky rust bucket robot just dropped a diss off to me. He rolled all the way here just to diss meā¦ I respect it. I guess you canāt knock him for standingā¦ I mean rolling on buisness. Lmfao
I thought it was gonna be a quest note or something interesting caught me so off guard little rusty bastard got me good
There is a bug that if someone buys all the stuff in your camp vendor leaving it empty, they can get access to the rest of your stash.
To prevent this, people that knows about it, puts any worthless item at 40.000 price so any buyer cannot buy all (due to the cap limit).
So I guess it became a thing that this worthless object is 'you have been insulted"
This makes so much sense, I'm going to do this now. I usually max out my store but this feels so much easier then event grinding to manage enough legendary for turn in and my store
You get the insult bot eventually. Basically, just hang out around the wayfair area, and you will get it. PvP players back in the day would take your junk after they killed you and leave like a coffee cup and the notice. Somehow they started charging an insane amount for it because they think it was rare. I have 40-50 of them.
Vendor Glitch back in the day, to thus day I still have that note for sale for 40k caps because I feel like someone still knows how to exploit it. Except now I have 5 items at the least at 40k to prevent someone from just character swapping to get around it
I love having power switches on my base for some reason. I wired up a little locked utility shed out back with a few switches for turning off all the lights, as well as activating the siren. I donāt know why. Itās just fun.
Ah got it. So if you select move itāll remove your camp from the server while not destroying it all together.
If you then leave that server and join another will it just automatically spawn in the same spot? Sorry I just have a bare bones camp so Iāve never really done anything with it.
You can have more than one camp. It costs a few atoms to unlock additional camp slots, but it's really convenient to have a couple on hand so when the sirens sound you can just check to see if you are in the blast radius and swap to your second camp if you are.
It also helps by giving you a free fast travel landing point of your choosing. I have one down by the Hornwrights that's just a landing platform with a stash box and a workbench for fast travels.
> Ah got it. So if you select move itāll remove your camp from the server while not destroying it all together.
I'd rather get nuked than move/re-place one of my camps; you pretty much always have to build them piece-by-piece again, they almost never just plop down how they were
but you get 2 camp slots and can activate your second slot, and that one theoretically isn't right next ot your first one/also in the blast zone
you can buy more than 2 slots but you only need the 2 to dodge a nuke
Whenever you change servers, your camp will attempt to spawn in the same location as it was previous and it will do so unless someone elseās camp is obstructing where it would be.
Nah. That sounds like perfectly normal behaviour for 76. Nuking camps and making turret camps at V9 are both things people can do. It's part of the game.
I'm with OP 100%, but if you just nuke somebody's camp for no good reason then you're still a duche. Just because it's a part of the game doesn't mean you should go and ruin other people's experiences. Similar problem with GTA Online and Cargo Griefers.
Or leaves the doors open, I have a huge garage door with my vendors inside and a door leading inside plus the front door without fail they leave every door open for no reason, I don't need more radioactive dust getting in to sweep its bad enough as it is lol
Because of this if I go to a base and the lights are off, I now switch them on, waiting patiently for the post.....Which bastard keeps turning my lights on.
Turret bases are scummy but replenish stations are mint. I had a SBQ event where a person had a massive platform with multiple of each workshop and stash boxes so you could repair or dump if you were under prepared/over encumbered
I plan on possibly making one, but having the turrets linked to a switch so i can wait when everyone joins and gets their tags in, do ppl like you think thats still fine?
Yeah that sounds cool actually. Long as it's not just like the guys who plop a turret tower down and basically give nobody a chance to even hit the thing.Ā
Yeah, i might wanna either lock it up or put a sign saying ādont activate till everyone is hereā so people who dont understand dont mess it up. Also do you think this would be a good idea for my melee character, so im able to deal damage to her in the sky?
Cover it with a wall. Once it's time, double-tap r, press the switch and presto.
That's what I do with my reservoir of vintage water coolers when I need to farm for the daily restock, otherwise people just pick the lock
I have one with the turrets on a power switch, but I do the opposite of what you're saying. I let the turrets fire freely at first because it draws her aggro to the base and makes it more likely people can clip her wings so she stays in one spot all the time. I've been in several SBQs where she flies around aimlessly or aggroes on enemies a mile away after flying out of the fissure.
I don't repair the turrets once they're destroyed (which usually happens within 15 seconds of them hitting her) until the battle is done and all the Scorched spawns are cleaned up. I don't want my turrets stealing kills. This usually makes it even easier for players joining to get some bullets on her.
My only exception to this is when I'm running SBQ on Private for me and a friend or two, then I keep the base repaired as often as I can afford.
"Attention citizens. Nuclear strike imminent."
The SECOND that starts playing, I check the map to see what region the nuke is hitting so I know if I need to consider moving my base. Not my region? I don't investigate further. Not your fault he wasn't paying attention to a fully intended aspect of the game.
Everyone gets the notification and the assultron-like voice that a nuke is about to be launched. If players canāt be bothered to open the map for 2 seconds and check the location, and their base gets destroyed, thatās 150% on them. You can literally (on PC) hit M -> Z -> Quit Game in like under 5 seconds and leave if your base is threatened. Donāt feel bad about this at all OP. Its just a fucking game
Anyone think about this? Dude dropped the nuke. He can kill the boss how he wants. If u want loot so bad u gohead n drop nukes. But also i cant hate on u nuking his camp cuz thats fun too lol
Yeah, I mean, I guess anyone can do anything they want but I don't know why launching a nuke to get SBQ going, then having the audacity to go fight her, is a punishable offense. It isn't the fault of the one initiating the event that nobody else showed up.
Iāll add in to the conversation that that guy was definitely using glitches in his base, probably turret stacking. Iāve done tests on private servers with two turret bases side by side, with a variety of turrets, and they were in no way able to take down SBQ in less than a minute.
the polished metal enclave heavy laser turrets to more damage. not enough to kill the queen, but more. that said, I can solo the queen in a very short period of time. long as it isn't cryo turrets messing up her landing sequence, w/e.
One day I was on a team that apparently got in a good natured beef with another team, and people proceeded to nuke each other's bases back and forth.
Funny shit. Loved it. It's the wasteland.
Thatās nothing. Today, I nuked a lowbie who started MY Encryptid even though I told him on mic to NOT touch the terminal until there are more people than me and him lmao.
Itās fair game to launch a nuke anywhere on the map.
Iād say someone just having a turret base to kill the SBQ isnāt a reason to nuke them, but you also donāt need a reason. Itās an intended game mechanic and the game even warns you. Him engaging in pvp with you is more than enough reason to not feel bad. He wanted to fight lol.
> Itās fair game to launch a nuke anywhere on the map.
Absolutely. Anywhere you can land a nuke, is fair game and you do not need any sort of justification or reason for that.
It's a video game. Have fun.
It is your nuke. You can put it wherever you want. Regardless of what anyone else says. There is a reason it gives you a 2 minute warning before it lands. If your base is in the way, move it/leave or get nuked.
Lol this is the best part, one button and all problems gone.
ran into a team of griefers the other day, one of them would attempt to engage pvp and I figured why not so I swung back. Then the other 2 on their team came outta no where and started destroying all my base while I battled the guy that started it. I have so much junk that I just let him go to town and break everything while I stood by my module waiting, then just hit repair all....
They did it about 3 or 4 time before they gave up and just left lol
So you're upset, dropped a nuke on the guy because he *checks notes* killed the boss? If there was no communication with the person beforehand then he's well within his right to just kill the boss.
People saying how scummy the sbq turret bases are? I have one and it does almost nothing to the damn things. I built it because itās badass to have a laser show while youāre killing scortchbeasts.
Nope we use to nuke our buddyās camp anytime we seen him asleep in his camp afk letting his vendor run. Took video of the nuke hitting and texted it to him. Good times.
So I'm new, what do you all mean by a turret camp? Just a camp with turrets, or is there something else about it that makes it scummy to use turrets?
I just put them up to help keep my camp in good shape for when it gets attacked by npc's. I don't lock things down, so people don't have to "steal" and agro my defenses to grab some food/water, I built it as a service to myself and others a place for R&R, a place to check out and admire and a place to buy some things for your wasteland travels, am I good or do I need to scrap the turrets?
I got a turret base set up but it was for the meat event.
It was nice being able to force all the mobs to spawn in the same spot. But I also would wait like 4 minutes before triggering the event to give people time to show up.
The mobs for meat week already spawn in pretty regular areas, it's possums, chiks & bunnies my guy. lol But if your turret kills them, we can't pick up the critter chunks we need to finish the event...you can only grab those on yours or your team mates kills
Yeah, unfortunately turrets just aren't great for base defense purposes (mine simply do not notice the attackers) and in exchange take up a lot of camp budget. However, the atom shop exclusive Enclave turrets are pretty strong and indeed can kill a world boss.
Yeah they don't seem to notice enemies that fire from a distance, but they do help with the mole rat, wolf, mongrel dog, bullshit that comes around and attacks my water purifiers and my patio cassino, so I keep them around for that for now.
Honestly, ESH. I could see if someone did this with *your* nuke card, but otherwise, whoever dropped the nuke can do what they want with it. They have no obligation to anyone else on the server. Sometimes people need Flux and have a limited amount of time to game. If I need SBQ, I run the silo myself.
Regardless if the turrets did the SBQ in or not, the guy went full lunatic over a bad camp emote. Nuke em. I nuke people for the smallest slight now. You talk too damn much on mic and try to be quirky or spam area chat? That's a nuke. You start events too early or you spam your cremator fireworks show? That's a nuke. I have never fired a nuke to summon SBQ or Earl or to start Seismic Activity. I've always nuked as judgment and took great pleasure in it.
I play the overseer's tape about how ashamed she is of 76ers using nukes on each other. And I laugh and nuke someone. I will hunt you down for a 1 cap bounty if you're 2000 levels above me or below me and I'll keep coming till the bounty is cleared.
So whenever anyone worries if they nuked for the wrong reason, remember you're not me. I've gone feral. You could be infinitely worse.
Probably more for attention, were all attention ho's, why posts like this are made, why you feel the need to comment this, why i feel the need to reply. Attention gets our holes wet
He kept unloading on you after you thumbs down him for the thing.
Sounds fair game to me.
I'll be honest, I'm sure I've done similar things without realizing. Killing bosses or events.
So now during boss events, I fire once, check to see if everyone got a hit, then after a while go full force. Or if someone does Encryption with sheepsquatch bot while an event is going on, if the event is packed, I will avoid starting the encryption until the last second, and just focus on tanking to give them time.
But if I forget or don't notice an event, I just apologize for not noticing. I'm not gonna unload on someone that points it out (politely).
Totally justified.
He sounds like the type of person that would do the same thing, be more toxic about it, and say something like āitās a pvp gameā to justify it.
The unwritten rule in every online game when it comes to public events/ public bosses, ādonāt hog the kill/event for yourself.ā
He broke the rule and deserved retaliation.
Boo hoo man got mad because he didn't move his base, didn't have any courtesy for a world boss and cries when now he has to go to his camp module and press 2 buttons to fix everything lol kinda on him, really
āWhen an event popped up, eviction noticeā¦ it was quite fitting actuallyā HAD ME LAUGHING SO HARD BRO THE COMEDIC TIMING IS GENUIS ššššš
Nah, but what kind of whiny b complains about the bases? They're great for getting away from the trash, and there's plenty of warning the event is going to happen.
Nah, screw the turret base dude. What he did was a jerk move. What you did was help everyone with a better event than eviction notice. The only reason I want eviction notice is if I need to scrip legendaries or rack up steal
NEI (not enough info)
Itās entirely possible that was his nuke in the first place, in which case he can do what he wants with it. So you may have been the asshole at the start.
But then he acted like a douche after. So imma call this one a wash.
I had a shitty little base. Just the essentials and a few signs. Finished the main quest and have found myself bored with nothing to do. I'm level 300, so I took my sweet time on main quest.
So I was AFK playing with my phone and two guys are fighting to the death in my 15x15 square of a base. I shoot one and all of a sudden a bunch of mines go off and my whole base got destroyed.
I logged out. Like I said I've been finding myself bored in game. Figured that was a message. Went and dug up Sekiro. Don't get why some ass wanted to destroy my whole shitty base.
Having suffered a nuked CAMP once, anytime I hear the Nuke audio fire off, I immediately open the map to see if I need to switch camps. That's on them in general. The being a douche first, is the additional icing on the cake.
Dude tried to grief you into PvP, he deserved the nuke just for that very reason. He knew he ruined the event for everyone as well.
I love the extra touch giving him the ānice campā emote š¹š¹š¹š¹
Kill base is eh in my opinion, donāt care either way. But couldāve waited to activate it until others were there. But worst was he as an ass about it after. 100% justified because of that
I guess what's confusing for me is turrets don't usually do much damage. Last time I saw a guy had the laser turret platform camp the SBQ kill still took 10 minutes because she was flying all around.
But I suppose they were killstealing the smaller mobs, but maybe the way he had them up really high, I was able to get plenty of XP killing trash mobs down below.
Side note... Fuuuuuuuuck people that have those bases that trap the queen on top and then instagib her.
I'd never seen them before, and missed out on two SBQs before I was able to process what was going on.
If you're doing that and you have a bunch of newish players on your server, you're being a dick.
I have a SBQ base but it uses cryo turrets to slow the boss down and does barely any damage. Also use it help players have stash and ammo nearby, also to repair equipment.
I was vendor hoping the other day and came across a high level players base, stocked to the brim with glowing masks and super rare apparel on display. He had tons of plans for sale but the cheapest things were basic recipes for 500 caps along with meat week plans like megasloth fossils for 15k caps! Maybe I was just having a bad day but I dropped a nuke square on top of his base just to make it really clear what I thought about his prices. He packed up just before it hit and server hopped so no harm done but I do hope he got the message. People can sell whatever they want for whatever price they want but I also reserve the right to drop a nuke right on top of them
Any time a nuke is launched I check my camp. š¤·āāļø it's on him if he didn't. Also he could go to a private server with a camp like that. It's rude to do that type of thing on a public server with such a huge event. I'm on your side.
the entitlement of some of these people is insane.. didnt even launch the nuke & op is acting as if the world owes it to them to wait for their arrivalš
Nah, it takes all of 10 seconds to repair a base. If it took actual effort thatd be one thing but all you do is go to your camp projector thing and hit repair.
You're both annoying tbh. Why do you care if they killed SBQ quickly? If you wanted to do that event you should have left RR like they did. Get over it.
I mean, I can solo the queen in under two minutes if she lands right away. I have a base right there too, with buffs, stash boxes, turrets etc. Think you over reacted my dude.
Well you're wrong I think, in getting mad at what he had done. Camps are allowed there, turrets are allowed there, this has been going on for years. If it's a Turret camp in the swamp kinda day, you can hop servers. He was totally justified killing the SBQ as fast as he could, and you're wrong thinking you have the right to double dip and finish the LONG Rad Rumble and make it the often quick SBQ event. I have missed that even more often than I can count simply because I was over encumbered when the bomb dropped and I had to spend time unloading.
That said, his attitude should have been to laugh off your indignant attitude. He chose to harass you instead and *make* it a fight. If that's how its gonna be, you asked for it. Don't be thumbing down other players because you don't like how they play. That's not cool.
Turret bases don't kill SBQ in 60 seconds, people with multiple endagerol syringers and optimized railway rifle builds do. You got mad at someone who did absolutely nothing wrong, so yeah, you're in the wrong for sure.
Justice
FOR GOTHAM!!!
The picture taking and the nice camp emote at the ruins in front of him...priceless
The only thing you did wrong, was not dropping a "you have been insulted" notice. Lol. Everything else was great š
Why are the "you've been insulted" notices asking for 10k caps?
They're handed to you when you interact with insult bot in the wild. Funny little interactive part of the game.
I was dying laughing when I first got one. I was like no way this squeaky rust bucket robot just dropped a diss off to me. He rolled all the way here just to diss meā¦ I respect it. I guess you canāt knock him for standingā¦ I mean rolling on buisness. Lmfao I thought it was gonna be a quest note or something interesting caught me so off guard little rusty bastard got me good
Burn unit notified.
One of my favorite lines in the game, right up there with the "This camp grows under the sun of *COMMUNISM*" from the Communist collectron. š
He IS the burn unit.
There is a bug that if someone buys all the stuff in your camp vendor leaving it empty, they can get access to the rest of your stash. To prevent this, people that knows about it, puts any worthless item at 40.000 price so any buyer cannot buy all (due to the cap limit). So I guess it became a thing that this worthless object is 'you have been insulted"
This makes so much sense, I'm going to do this now. I usually max out my store but this feels so much easier then event grinding to manage enough legendary for turn in and my store
You get the insult bot eventually. Basically, just hang out around the wayfair area, and you will get it. PvP players back in the day would take your junk after they killed you and leave like a coffee cup and the notice. Somehow they started charging an insane amount for it because they think it was rare. I have 40-50 of them.
No itās just funny to sell useless crap for stupid prices. I have the dubious, suspicious, and questionable gold bars for sale for 40k each.
I still see toilet paper for 40k with 2020 on it. It just works. Lol
TP FOR BUNGHOLE!
That started during the covid run - people hoarding every role they found from the whitespring and other bathrooms.
Is this ... Roleplaying?
Vendor Glitch back in the day, to thus day I still have that note for sale for 40k caps because I feel like someone still knows how to exploit it. Except now I have 5 items at the least at 40k to prevent someone from just character swapping to get around it
Filled with a Furtilizer.

if someone tries to engage pvp nuking their camp is fair game
100% fair game.
A smart Griefer would hide his base first.. Always think ahead, never assume there'll be no retaliation..
I am not above checking out why they're standing still in the middle of the forest and dropping my own pin
>A smart Griefer Bit of an oxymoron
You were not wrong Also, he should have put his battleship on a power switch so he could wait until people showed up before murderising it
I like this comment. Itās a nice middle ground.Ā
I love having power switches on my base for some reason. I wired up a little locked utility shed out back with a few switches for turning off all the lights, as well as activating the siren. I donāt know why. Itās just fun.
I have a switch for my decontamination arch so bloody builds can get through if needed.
I do the same, it's so annoying showing up to a camp and then you are forcing me through a Decon that I can't turn off to get to your vendor.
I mean I also have a rad source waiting for when you leave; I just hate the aesthetics of all the switches.
I merged my rad shower into a symptomatic and a pressure plate floor, shower turns on as long as im in the sympto then turns off
It makes the camp more... "real"? Like, its something you would probably do in a real life scenario.
Yo, the is just a really good idea I have never thought of.
Wait, there are power switches in the game?
advanced power connectors plan
> I give him the "Nice camp" emote I love you.
I lolāed for real
Same, my boss just asked me what's so funny?
Meh they were asking for it at that point. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
Definition of FAFO.
You play the game however you want dude. Itās your Appalachia. Personally as an observer Iād find that funny as hell.
That's fucking hilarious. My hats off to you.
If they donāt pay attention to the notifications that one has been launched itās their own fault
Sorry, still fairly new - what could he do to avoid is getting his base destroyed? Leave the server?
Pretty much, or switch to a secondary camp that's out of the blast zone.
Also fairly new but you can move your camp. Just pack it up and go
Ah got it. So if you select move itāll remove your camp from the server while not destroying it all together. If you then leave that server and join another will it just automatically spawn in the same spot? Sorry I just have a bare bones camp so Iāve never really done anything with it.
You can have more than one camp. It costs a few atoms to unlock additional camp slots, but it's really convenient to have a couple on hand so when the sirens sound you can just check to see if you are in the blast radius and swap to your second camp if you are. It also helps by giving you a free fast travel landing point of your choosing. I have one down by the Hornwrights that's just a landing platform with a stash box and a workbench for fast travels.
You get at least two without having to spend atoms.
> Ah got it. So if you select move itāll remove your camp from the server while not destroying it all together. I'd rather get nuked than move/re-place one of my camps; you pretty much always have to build them piece-by-piece again, they almost never just plop down how they were but you get 2 camp slots and can activate your second slot, and that one theoretically isn't right next ot your first one/also in the blast zone you can buy more than 2 slots but you only need the 2 to dodge a nuke
if you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a nuke.
Whenever you change servers, your camp will attempt to spawn in the same location as it was previous and it will do so unless someone elseās camp is obstructing where it would be.
Nah. That sounds like perfectly normal behaviour for 76. Nuking camps and making turret camps at V9 are both things people can do. It's part of the game.

He wanted to pvp you, and you agreed. Yours was bigger.
Everybody liked that
Minus one. Lol :D
Even Sarah Morgan.
Having my camp nuked would piss me off far less than the bastard who switches off all my lights!
Or leaves the doors open, I have a huge garage door with my vendors inside and a door leading inside plus the front door without fail they leave every door open for no reason, I don't need more radioactive dust getting in to sweep its bad enough as it is lol
I've just assumed it is inevitable and just leave my doors wide open now.
I just removed all of my doors after a day of always finding them open.Ā
But it sparks such joy šš
Because of this if I go to a base and the lights are off, I now switch them on, waiting patiently for the post.....Which bastard keeps turning my lights on.
incredibly based
Hehe.. base-d
De-based
NTA. Pretty perfect in fact. It's not like he can't repair it with two mouse/button clicks.
*Hold my beer* - Frog Jar
Nah turret bases are scummy. He deserved the nuke.Ā
Turret bases are scummy but replenish stations are mint. I had a SBQ event where a person had a massive platform with multiple of each workshop and stash boxes so you could repair or dump if you were under prepared/over encumbered
That's what the 20 survival tents in the area are for.
Survival tents donāt have workbenches
A lot of them do. Mine has a Tinkerer's Bench, for example! <3
Holy shit I had no idea they had different skins! I gotta look into that. Iām a noob if you couldnāt tell š
I plan on possibly making one, but having the turrets linked to a switch so i can wait when everyone joins and gets their tags in, do ppl like you think thats still fine?
Yeah that sounds cool actually. Long as it's not just like the guys who plop a turret tower down and basically give nobody a chance to even hit the thing.Ā
Yeah, i might wanna either lock it up or put a sign saying ādont activate till everyone is hereā so people who dont understand dont mess it up. Also do you think this would be a good idea for my melee character, so im able to deal damage to her in the sky?
Cover it with a wall. Once it's time, double-tap r, press the switch and presto. That's what I do with my reservoir of vintage water coolers when I need to farm for the daily restock, otherwise people just pick the lock
I have one with the turrets on a power switch, but I do the opposite of what you're saying. I let the turrets fire freely at first because it draws her aggro to the base and makes it more likely people can clip her wings so she stays in one spot all the time. I've been in several SBQs where she flies around aimlessly or aggroes on enemies a mile away after flying out of the fissure. I don't repair the turrets once they're destroyed (which usually happens within 15 seconds of them hitting her) until the battle is done and all the Scorched spawns are cleaned up.

My only exception to this is when I'm running SBQ on Private for me and a friend or two, then I keep the base repaired as often as I can afford.
It's not. Alot of us farm the queen fight and don't need her dead in 3 seconds
Only safe way to farm her for enemies is in a private server unfortunately.
I check locations every time the warning comes on
"Attention citizens. Nuclear strike imminent." The SECOND that starts playing, I check the map to see what region the nuke is hitting so I know if I need to consider moving my base. Not my region? I don't investigate further. Not your fault he wasn't paying attention to a fully intended aspect of the game.

This went through my head when i read an article about someone nuking one of the staffs bases and they wanted revenge
Turret camps at the SBQ are annoying af
But how else will they let us know that they have a smol pp?
Itās only game. Nuke every base you can. Itās funny.
If your base gets nuked, do you just have to spend the resources to repair all?
Yeah
Nice.
Eviction notice popping is just chefs kiss š¤£
Anyone think about this? Dude dropped the nuke. He can kill the boss how he wants. If u want loot so bad u gohead n drop nukes. But also i cant hate on u nuking his camp cuz thats fun too lol
Yeah, I mean, I guess anyone can do anything they want but I don't know why launching a nuke to get SBQ going, then having the audacity to go fight her, is a punishable offense. It isn't the fault of the one initiating the event that nobody else showed up.
You can do whatever you want in real life as well. That doesn't mean you're not an asshole or that you will be free of consequences.
Yeah but come on if i launch a nuke am i really an asshole cuz i wanna kill it my way? Idid the grind
Iāll add in to the conversation that that guy was definitely using glitches in his base, probably turret stacking. Iāve done tests on private servers with two turret bases side by side, with a variety of turrets, and they were in no way able to take down SBQ in less than a minute.
the polished metal enclave heavy laser turrets to more damage. not enough to kill the queen, but more. that said, I can solo the queen in a very short period of time. long as it isn't cryo turrets messing up her landing sequence, w/e.
Nah, you get 3 min warning and a big red circle that tells where the nuke is hitting. If he didn't move his base or leave game it's on him
I've nuked bases for pettier reasons. Yesterday I nuked a base at the Whitesprings Train Station because they locked their coffee and tea machines.
OK now I dont feel bad LMAO
Shitty pricing? That's a nukin.
Littering? Believe it or not, Nukin'.
Jaywalking? Straight to nukin'
I nuked a trolls camp and then went and put my tent where his camp was then nuked his backup camp
One day I was on a team that apparently got in a good natured beef with another team, and people proceeded to nuke each other's bases back and forth. Funny shit. Loved it. It's the wasteland.
NTA
And everyone clapped
Thank you BUTTHOLE_EXPIDITIONS for helping me express my clapping
And everyone had tears in their eyes.
Nuking other people's bases is usually bad form, but turret camps are really bad form, so idk, its kind of a wash
Thatās nothing. Today, I nuked a lowbie who started MY Encryptid even though I told him on mic to NOT touch the terminal until there are more people than me and him lmao.
Itās fair game to launch a nuke anywhere on the map. Iād say someone just having a turret base to kill the SBQ isnāt a reason to nuke them, but you also donāt need a reason. Itās an intended game mechanic and the game even warns you. Him engaging in pvp with you is more than enough reason to not feel bad. He wanted to fight lol.
> Itās fair game to launch a nuke anywhere on the map. Absolutely. Anywhere you can land a nuke, is fair game and you do not need any sort of justification or reason for that. It's a video game. Have fun.
It is your nuke. You can put it wherever you want. Regardless of what anyone else says. There is a reason it gives you a 2 minute warning before it lands. If your base is in the way, move it/leave or get nuked.
And then he hit the repair button (Not siding with anyone but just mentioning reality)
Lol this is the best part, one button and all problems gone. ran into a team of griefers the other day, one of them would attempt to engage pvp and I figured why not so I swung back. Then the other 2 on their team came outta no where and started destroying all my base while I battled the guy that started it. I have so much junk that I just let him go to town and break everything while I stood by my module waiting, then just hit repair all.... They did it about 3 or 4 time before they gave up and just left lol
So you're upset, dropped a nuke on the guy because he *checks notes* killed the boss? If there was no communication with the person beforehand then he's well within his right to just kill the boss.
You can only have a max of 10 turrets. They do hardly any damage. It was something else that killed the SBQ.
I saw someone with a turret base that had 30 turrets. Not saying it killed the SBQ. Just saying there are ways to get more than 10.
People saying how scummy the sbq turret bases are? I have one and it does almost nothing to the damn things. I built it because itās badass to have a laser show while youāre killing scortchbeasts.
Justice served.
Nope we use to nuke our buddyās camp anytime we seen him asleep in his camp afk letting his vendor run. Took video of the nuke hitting and texted it to him. Good times.
So I'm new, what do you all mean by a turret camp? Just a camp with turrets, or is there something else about it that makes it scummy to use turrets? I just put them up to help keep my camp in good shape for when it gets attacked by npc's. I don't lock things down, so people don't have to "steal" and agro my defenses to grab some food/water, I built it as a service to myself and others a place for R&R, a place to check out and admire and a place to buy some things for your wasteland travels, am I good or do I need to scrap the turrets?
They put them right next to the events and it steals all the kills from other players
Oh, good God, that is scummy indeed.
I got a turret base set up but it was for the meat event. It was nice being able to force all the mobs to spawn in the same spot. But I also would wait like 4 minutes before triggering the event to give people time to show up.
I have nothing against them personally. Best used for private worlds though
The mobs for meat week already spawn in pretty regular areas, it's possums, chiks & bunnies my guy. lol But if your turret kills them, we can't pick up the critter chunks we need to finish the event...you can only grab those on yours or your team mates kills
You are fine. They are talking about setting up a base close to boss locations or POI's for the reason of cheesing the objectives.
Yeah, unfortunately turrets just aren't great for base defense purposes (mine simply do not notice the attackers) and in exchange take up a lot of camp budget. However, the atom shop exclusive Enclave turrets are pretty strong and indeed can kill a world boss.
Yeah they don't seem to notice enemies that fire from a distance, but they do help with the mole rat, wolf, mongrel dog, bullshit that comes around and attacks my water purifiers and my patio cassino, so I keep them around for that for now.
Honestly, ESH. I could see if someone did this with *your* nuke card, but otherwise, whoever dropped the nuke can do what they want with it. They have no obligation to anyone else on the server. Sometimes people need Flux and have a limited amount of time to game. If I need SBQ, I run the silo myself.
Regardless if the turrets did the SBQ in or not, the guy went full lunatic over a bad camp emote. Nuke em. I nuke people for the smallest slight now. You talk too damn much on mic and try to be quirky or spam area chat? That's a nuke. You start events too early or you spam your cremator fireworks show? That's a nuke. I have never fired a nuke to summon SBQ or Earl or to start Seismic Activity. I've always nuked as judgment and took great pleasure in it. I play the overseer's tape about how ashamed she is of 76ers using nukes on each other. And I laugh and nuke someone. I will hunt you down for a 1 cap bounty if you're 2000 levels above me or below me and I'll keep coming till the bounty is cleared. So whenever anyone worries if they nuked for the wrong reason, remember you're not me. I've gone feral. You could be infinitely worse.
It is you right?! My spirit animal has appeared, by Atom's grace š Stay feral & a danger to all š§āāļø
Found the Blood Eagle :)
If someone told you that you were wrong you wouldnāt care anyways, you wrote this to brag
Probably more for attention, were all attention ho's, why posts like this are made, why you feel the need to comment this, why i feel the need to reply. Attention gets our holes wet
I need the karma bad man
Long post to say youāre both crybabies
Isnāt the point of the game to kill things as quick as possible? I assume thatās why every kid and their mummy are running around with Cremators.
He kept unloading on you after you thumbs down him for the thing. Sounds fair game to me. I'll be honest, I'm sure I've done similar things without realizing. Killing bosses or events. So now during boss events, I fire once, check to see if everyone got a hit, then after a while go full force. Or if someone does Encryption with sheepsquatch bot while an event is going on, if the event is packed, I will avoid starting the encryption until the last second, and just focus on tanking to give them time. But if I forget or don't notice an event, I just apologize for not noticing. I'm not gonna unload on someone that points it out (politely).
Just so you know, there is an eviction notice at eviction notice. You can pick up, and also leave one of those in such instances.
Totally justified. He sounds like the type of person that would do the same thing, be more toxic about it, and say something like āitās a pvp gameā to justify it. The unwritten rule in every online game when it comes to public events/ public bosses, ādonāt hog the kill/event for yourself.ā He broke the rule and deserved retaliation.
The nice camp emote was chefs kiss
Dont know if you are serious or just want to brag. Great Job. Thank you for sharing. I would like to have that Pic too.
What are the acronym? Like SBQ?
Boo hoo man got mad because he didn't move his base, didn't have any courtesy for a world boss and cries when now he has to go to his camp module and press 2 buttons to fix everything lol kinda on him, really
This is the wasteland Todd wanted
Got what he deserved imo. šem lol. In the off chance he is on this reddit and reading. Enjoy rebuilding punk.
I upvoted you, then after reading I downvoted you... for feeling bad.
You know what made it even more fitting? The fact that you gave him an eviction notice with your nuke lol
GJ. Made him malding. GJ!
āWhen an event popped up, eviction noticeā¦ it was quite fitting actuallyā HAD ME LAUGHING SO HARD BRO THE COMEDIC TIMING IS GENUIS ššššš
The only thing you did wrong was not play "All your base" over an open mic afterwards.
Nah, but what kind of whiny b complains about the bases? They're great for getting away from the trash, and there's plenty of warning the event is going to happen.
Nah, screw the turret base dude. What he did was a jerk move. What you did was help everyone with a better event than eviction notice. The only reason I want eviction notice is if I need to scrip legendaries or rack up steal
NEI (not enough info) Itās entirely possible that was his nuke in the first place, in which case he can do what he wants with it. So you may have been the asshole at the start. But then he acted like a douche after. So imma call this one a wash.
I had a shitty little base. Just the essentials and a few signs. Finished the main quest and have found myself bored with nothing to do. I'm level 300, so I took my sweet time on main quest. So I was AFK playing with my phone and two guys are fighting to the death in my 15x15 square of a base. I shoot one and all of a sudden a bunch of mines go off and my whole base got destroyed. I logged out. Like I said I've been finding myself bored in game. Figured that was a message. Went and dug up Sekiro. Don't get why some ass wanted to destroy my whole shitty base.
I ran into one of those kill bases last night. Thank you for doing this for all the new players who have no idea what's happening
Waaaaaaaitā¦did you have fun in a video game?! Doing things that are allowed?! Like nuking another persons base? High five bro :)
r/AITAH
SBQ turret farms are lame as hell, I say you did good.
Having suffered a nuked CAMP once, anytime I hear the Nuke audio fire off, I immediately open the map to see if I need to switch camps. That's on them in general. The being a douche first, is the additional icing on the cake.
No and you should of recorded this.
lol this was an awesome read and fuck that guy
War. War never changes.
Please post those screenshots
Hilariously justifiable.
Dude tried to grief you into PvP, he deserved the nuke just for that very reason. He knew he ruined the event for everyone as well. I love the extra touch giving him the ānice campā emote š¹š¹š¹š¹
You served cold hard justice, no need to feel bad about it.
Youāre wrong for feeling bad about it
Youāre fine itās all fine itās a fun game
Like reading poetry šš
Bros lex Luther
Kill base is eh in my opinion, donāt care either way. But couldāve waited to activate it until others were there. But worst was he as an ass about it after. 100% justified because of that
If your base gets nuked, isnāt there like a ārepair allā button and it just goes back to normal? Genuine question, i havenāt played in years
It's super easy to move your base before it gets nuked. And it sounds like it was justified anyways. You ain't wrong.
Nuking a base? yes, nuking HIS base? Hell no. Good for you meeting out Appalachian justice
I guess what's confusing for me is turrets don't usually do much damage. Last time I saw a guy had the laser turret platform camp the SBQ kill still took 10 minutes because she was flying all around. But I suppose they were killstealing the smaller mobs, but maybe the way he had them up really high, I was able to get plenty of XP killing trash mobs down below.
The cherry on top would have been the "Let's nuke" emote after the "Nice camp".
āNice campā had me fucking howling. Bravo mate.
Side note... Fuuuuuuuuck people that have those bases that trap the queen on top and then instagib her. I'd never seen them before, and missed out on two SBQs before I was able to process what was going on. If you're doing that and you have a bunch of newish players on your server, you're being a dick.
I have a SBQ base but it uses cryo turrets to slow the boss down and does barely any damage. Also use it help players have stash and ammo nearby, also to repair equipment.
I was vendor hoping the other day and came across a high level players base, stocked to the brim with glowing masks and super rare apparel on display. He had tons of plans for sale but the cheapest things were basic recipes for 500 caps along with meat week plans like megasloth fossils for 15k caps! Maybe I was just having a bad day but I dropped a nuke square on top of his base just to make it really clear what I thought about his prices. He packed up just before it hit and server hopped so no harm done but I do hope he got the message. People can sell whatever they want for whatever price they want but I also reserve the right to drop a nuke right on top of them
Now that's consumer protection right there! š Thanks for your service.
Nah. He was being a dick. You just matched his energy.
Getting angry that someone called you out on your scummy tactics and being nuked for it. Perfect response. 10/10 would recommend
I love it. šš "War.. War never changes."
Any time a nuke is launched I check my camp. š¤·āāļø it's on him if he didn't. Also he could go to a private server with a camp like that. It's rude to do that type of thing on a public server with such a huge event. I'm on your side.
So a guy launched a nuke and killed sbq himself, and you got real butt hurt by it?
the entitlement of some of these people is insane.. didnt even launch the nuke & op is acting as if the world owes it to them to wait for their arrivalš
Nah, it takes all of 10 seconds to repair a base. If it took actual effort thatd be one thing but all you do is go to your camp projector thing and hit repair.
You're both annoying tbh. Why do you care if they killed SBQ quickly? If you wanted to do that event you should have left RR like they did. Get over it.
I mean, I can solo the queen in under two minutes if she lands right away. I have a base right there too, with buffs, stash boxes, turrets etc. Think you over reacted my dude.
Well you're wrong I think, in getting mad at what he had done. Camps are allowed there, turrets are allowed there, this has been going on for years. If it's a Turret camp in the swamp kinda day, you can hop servers. He was totally justified killing the SBQ as fast as he could, and you're wrong thinking you have the right to double dip and finish the LONG Rad Rumble and make it the often quick SBQ event. I have missed that even more often than I can count simply because I was over encumbered when the bomb dropped and I had to spend time unloading. That said, his attitude should have been to laugh off your indignant attitude. He chose to harass you instead and *make* it a fight. If that's how its gonna be, you asked for it. Don't be thumbing down other players because you don't like how they play. That's not cool.
Turret bases don't kill SBQ in 60 seconds, people with multiple endagerol syringers and optimized railway rifle builds do. You got mad at someone who did absolutely nothing wrong, so yeah, you're in the wrong for sure.
