Arc Raiders olive locations

Upgrading Scrappy is the most effective strategy for securing essential resources in Arc Raiders, allowing players to reserve inventory slots for valuable treasures. To satisfy Scrappy's appetite, players need to collect six olives, prickly pears, and a Cat Bed. Olives can be found on the ground near olive trees or by shaking the branches, which are larger than shrubs. The Lush Blooms event increases the spawn rates of collectible vegetation and introduces baskets filled with olives. The 'Olive Grove' at The Blue Gate is the best location for gathering olives, with a higher likelihood of finding them near the Nature icon. Players should be cautious of nearby threats, including Arcs and a patrolling Bombadier. Newcomers are advised to consult a guide for the A First Foothold quest and bring an Arc Raiders Hatch Key for better chances of success.

Borderlands 4 PC Performance Analysis: Terrible Optimization and Technical Issues

2K Games unveiled Borderlands 4, powered by Unreal Engine 5. The benchmarking setup included an AMD Ryzen 9 7950X3D processor and various graphics cards, including NVIDIA's RTX 4090 and AMD's RX 7900XTX. The game features adjustable graphics settings and supports technologies like NVIDIA DLSS 4, AMD FSR 4.0, and Intel XeSS 2.0. Borderlands 4 lacks a built-in benchmark tool, and testing showed it to be one of the most demanding non-path-traced games. At 1080p with Badass Settings, only the NVIDIA RTX 4090 and RTX 5090 achieved 60FPS, while at 1440p, only the RTX 5090 exceeded 60FPS. No GPU maintained smooth performance at 4K, with the RTX 5090 averaging 40FPS. Lowering settings to Medium was necessary for playable 60FPS at native 4K. Visuals did not justify the high GPU requirements, and players reported glitches, including missing sun reflections and low-quality terrain textures. Grass pop-in issues were noted, linked to Unreal Engine version 5.5.4.0, with potential improvements in version 5.6. Console users faced similar performance challenges.
