>plant mine out of habit at the top of launch tower>see two guys run in at the bottom>two dudes come up by chance in the one spot where my mine was>blast them>one diverolls off the edge>revive the other guy with a defib and say we're sorry>leaves peacefullyHopefully that's enough to make me stay in the chungus lobbies.

official rat theme song just droppedhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OcQ7fNYTP1Y
Imagine getting ratted IRL by your junkie son. That would suck ass
>another 5 minute stella raid in the promised chunguslandsIt's too comfy bros
>>550311470Based
>>550311021kek.On another note, can we expedite now?
>guy tried to ambush me at extract>turn and win the duel>next match i'm immediately sent to trigger nade il toro mute mic hellWhat the fuck embark. I didn't start that shit.
>>550312069If you kill your enemies they win. Please reflect on your deeds for the next 10 matches in the shadowrealm.
Loot hits different when you are pulling it off another player.
>>550312069>>550312464>spawn in naked>melee other players to provoke them>let them kill you>they get stuck in Nigger Matchmaking
matchmakin still fucked? ruined my night lats night by takin 2 minutes for a stella montis day and gettin stuck in a duo night raid
>peanut at 100kHow is that even possible
Who false flagging here? I'm going to act suspicious around chunguslords, have them kill me, and make them send themselves into KOS hell.
>>550313380Devilish
Do chungusmaxxers do meta loot runs? If not I'm gonna have to claw my way out of niggerhell.
>>550309427So if PsychopathBasedMatchMaking (PBMM) is real, isn't this a good thing for both PvP and PvE players? The people who want PvP will be filtered into PvP-centric matches and they get to have thrilling fights instead of killing bots/players who can't even fight back and PvE players get their wholesome chungus friendly matches and only have to deal with bots. This appeases both parts of the playerbase.
Talked to my 2 year old son today.He asked me>Daddy, why is the total time to kill in a pvp setting where there is barebones pve going on in an extraction shooter that is third person.I didn't have the heart to tell them >"because tarkov did it, so we have to follow it"embark needs to do something or else i fear for my 2 year olds future
>>550313798As a chungartha citizen, all I do is roam the map picking up things I like, wave at people and say hello, and collect hoards of arc scrap. Hornet and wasp drivers can sell a lot if yoy have like 20 of them in a late game, and no one bothers with the arc probes.
>>550313287He doesn't give a shit. He's an entertainer first and foremost. Bro just gets drunk and has fun.Also he has 3 mil in stash he checked at the start of the stream.
Nice fucking spawns embark. Want to guess whether or not I was killed by a free loadout?
COP OR DROP?
>>550315014>peanut's shirt is 10 dollars cheaper than embark's
>>550315401APPARENTLY ITS GOING TO GET EVEN CHEAPER
>>550313842The pvp players just want even easier kills. Thats why theyre having a melty
>>550315014>>550315810I love this nut so much its unreal.
>>550313842But then who will pay the reparashuns?
>>550315014>>550315401>>550315810>>550315967>>>/vt/
>>550315014>>550315810>>550315967>>>/vt/Fuck off
>>550315967why does he talk about dicks in his butthole like every 5 minutes
>>550316542>>550316550he's /ourguy/ and part of arc raider culture deal with it
NOW LEEEEEETS RIIIDEEEEEEE
>matches had been a pretty consistent mix of friendly and pvp with slight bias towards friendly for 70 hours>played one match in trio with friend and his friend>his friend pretends to be friendly to a team and then shoots them in the back>every match since has been nothing but KOS and extract campers>even just saved a guy from a sniper and he turned around and killed me tooThe friendliness mmr is real, and I have no idea how to exit the death spiral once you're in with the KOSers.
>>550317151Just gotta run the clock without killing anything.
>>550317151Should be called UK match making where you're punished the same as the attacker for defending yourself.Hell, there's even an event log after the game that shows you were defending yourself and you still get punished.
Wait the hullcracker sucks ass wtf
>>550317530It got nerfed so smaller arc would still be a "challenge."Nevermind you can just two tap them with a fucking ferro.
>>550317151KOShell is real
>>550317530Still cracks me up that the first major patch went like this:>hmmm everyone complaining about weapon imbalance and gray weapons being overpowered in pvp>TIME TO NERF HULLCRACKER AND CHARGE MORE FOR AMMO!
>Sneaking around>Pops/Ticks/Fireballs>Amazingly high score near 40k avoiding people>Last minute extract>Campers>seeing another team get blasted but must take the train or die>get deleted>Have nothing but hairpin and stitcher>Beg to just leave>"Nah"Lame.
Saw two different teams in trios farming snitch scanners on a night raid. Embark is fucking retarded for not expecting that one.Testing every inch of the map for spots you can slip behind walls is a big ask for lazy Swedes, I get it, but no one saw the snitch farm coming?
>a week ago /arg/ sucky sucky gluck gluck 9000 PVPers every thread >now they fear the pvpshitter matchmaking trying to be wholesomechunguses to not get placed in rat hellFull circle
>>550318896Campers are faggots, sorry anon.Managed to hit 25k in solos and I'm probably just gonna let it sit there. I know one anon had something like 45k.
I learned about this game from the burnt peanut. Is it still worth buying?
>>550319145No, the FOTM is over.
>>550318913What, so they can use them in pvp? Or are they farming for the 5mil with snitch scanners?
>>550319291Trials. It's how everyone gets retarded high scores on any week where you have to hit wasps or flying arc.
>>550319041Yeah, its annoying. I don't mind PVP, but damn extract campers that just wait around are lame as hell.Going back in to do it again. This time much more prepped to fuck people over in PVP if they wanna act like froggy fucks though.
>>550319603its fine tarkov does it so that means its okay and this totally different extraction shooter should just be like tarkov.
>>550319668Kek
Does the rocketeer have a fucking burst fire attack? I had my back turned but I just got 3 separate ticks of damage over the course of half a second from what should've just been 1 rocket.
>>550309418how about you list them to me without accidentally omitting any of them
>>550319895>Does the rocketeer have a fucking burst fire attack?Yeah man they've been doing salvos for a week or two. The Queen and Matriarch shake people off if they hop on them and stay for too long. Wasps and hornets go inside buildings to clear them if you run inside.They're quietly adding behaviors to arc in response to player behavior.
>>550319603>This time much more prepped to fuck people over in PVP if they wanna act like froggy fucks though.shadowrealm'd
>>550320252All of these things have been there since launch, the ARC do not learn.
>>550320472having it in at launch would have meant working through one of their vacations
>Everybody realizing the game has matchmakingI've been saying so since like day one, told you fuckers.It's super aids in squads because the more successful raids you have in a row, the higher the chance you end up in a lobby with exploiters/cheaters. I've lost hope that I'm ever going to see compensation for the literal dozens of kits I lost to people shooting out of the walls or aimbotting.
>>550318896>>550319041What map and where'd you go for them?
How many PvE trannies did you kill today?
PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENTDo not argue with PvE trannies.They spread disinformation and will troll you.
Alright that's it, i'm done with KOS lobbies. Every fucking game, especially increased loot modes, has at least one cheater at all times of the day.It's not even a matter of not wanting PvP, there's just no form of content you can engage in without a cheater running at you unless you start with a freekit and do nothing but loot empty buildings.How do i best farm chungus status?
>>550321330Stella Montis, Night Raid. Highest concentrations are in Assembly, Robot Sandbox, Medical Research, and Seed Vault.Queue for it in the last five minutes of the cycle for no late spawns or just big dick it when the events roll over and hope for the best.
>join team>teammates are always loot botsFUCK THIS GAME
>>550321739Pick flowers and chat in proximity or something. Maybe move away from Australia if the chinks are cheating too much.
>>550321823>>550321330Correct. Stella Montis night raids give crazy pop/tick score if you can survive it and clear the right rooms.
>>550311470>having great raids on Stella Chungus >all of a sudden guy in train hits me with tool as screen is going black>get survey “how was last raid?”>dont know what to do since I took damage from other raider>skip survey>next Stella raid I spawn into gunfire, flares and screaming>fuck>hit my spot and gtfo >guy on train raises his weapon just as screen goes black >howd you like the last raid survey>hit loved it since there was no pvp and I left with someone >next raid spawn near seed vault and just immediately leave alone>next raid garbage spawn near Cargo >guy spawns near me naked and cheers me on while I fight a hornet >leave with a rando >another survey, say I loved it>one more raid to be sure>spawn in Lobby, people chatting, helping>leave with like 5 people in the train >mfw That was close. Never take Chungartha for granted.
>>550322084Just grab some friends anon. You have made a few friends as a PVE chunguschad, haven't you?
>spawn in late>ambushed at extract for my ferro IV and 1.5 stacks of heavy ammo>freekit stitcher 1>look at his profile>2000 hours in counterstrike 2It's always the ones you most suspect.
What goes wrong in someone's life go make them a KOSfaggot? Or worse, someone who pretends to be friendly and shoots when you are looting or have your back turned? Could this behavior be indicative of them in real life?
>>550323747I just like the PvP. I don't care if the shadowrealm is real, I just not want to deal with >>550321739
Chungus status?
I really don't get why everyone griefs this game so much. I'm a noob but i think it's pretty damn fun. The pvp risk is what makes things interesting. Im shit at pvp but if this game became a pve game it would suck ass and lose all it's edge. Also I don't get what ppl are saying about gray guns being good. I can't get a fucking kill with anything weaker than a 4rattler/fero or an anvil
>>550324076I’d probably be considered a power chungus desu
>it's an 18 minute spawn
Cheating in this game seems like a pretty big problem
>>550324225The problem is, everyone is a dishonest faggot about pvp and has zero intentions of a fair fight. They'll gank you at the first given opportunity. Very pathetic and weak behavior.
>>550324225>I don't get what ppl are saying about gray guns being good. I can't get a fucking kill with anything weaker than a 4rattler/fero or an anvilStart using kettles and stitchers and get back to us.
>>550324364Peanut literally just got killed by a guy who was wall glitching and aimbotting who was not only clipped doing it a few days ago, but was also mass reported by thousands of people.I don't think Embark has banned a single cheater. They just give you your loot back and let the cheaters keep playing.
>>550324546lmao imagine bowing and caring about honor when I can just mag dump you in the back after you call the elevator for me. You want your shit back? I hope you can afford the plane ticket, retard.
>>550324076I go into raids naked and pick fruit on Blue Gate. I am a humble gardener.
Extended mag II and snap hook BPs in one EMS raid within like 5 minutes on SpaceportI have been blessed at last!!
>>550324783Yeah. But in real life you're a worthless loser, and nothing you say to cope will ever change this.
Thanks to whoever told me hornet drivers 1 tap rocketeers lolOnly works over flat ground doe
>no cheaters in the promised chunguslands thats a skill issue
>get extract camped in the chungus lobby Um sir that's against the fucki- heckin rules
>>550324546Yeah but that's what makes the game fun>>550324585Will do
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I9lo5H_Ek3E
>y-you're totally a bad person and a loser if you pvp and BTW if you EVER pvp you are getting sent to HELL aka the bad servers where you suffer forever and you're super mad and onions and im chad hahaam i supposed to think the people that post this kind of shit aren't delusional weirdos
>>550325562Whatever you say to feel better about your troubled, sad, lonely self.
>midnight est>still hasn't shifted to trials hourly countdowncan we just be done with this dogshit already so I can move on instead of giving out 3(!) bonus days
I'm gonna be insufferable in this genny when the PVE co-op mode against AI enemy raiders is announced. I want you to know when that happens it's all thanks to your camping of the dam extracts.
>>550325617i rarely pvp myself but posts like yours and the ones previously mentioned just reek of derangement
>>550321735their current disinformation campaign is the "karma system". they want you to believe that you get sent to a separate server if you kill a player. this fantasy server goes by different names. just ignore them. they are trolling and shitposting. i'm pretty sure that they don't even own the game.
>>550325559Imagine being a whore for 6 viewers.
What if the feedback mechanism actually has impact on your matchmaking?When I was constantly running KOS on stella, it didn't stop to ask me once about enjoyment. The second match where I don't shoot and get railed by cheaters, I get asked both if I enjoyed the match and how the pvp was.
>>550325887That information came from the devs directly. Also we've gone over this. PVPChads are just Ganktroons. That's all the solo """pvp""" is Solo doesnt have pvp, it has a trust exercise that deranged freaks get to exploit
Moral grandstanding over a video game is pretty absurd cope, why the fuck is this game so hugboxxy?
>>550317151>The friendliness mmr is real, and I have no idea how to exit the death spiral once you're in with the KOSers.Spam freekits. Alternate between trying to be friendly or aggressively attacking people on sight like a rabid dog. However, when you attack people, pretend to be extremely incompetent and miss every shot. Eventually your MMR will descend back to Chungartha.
actual questionwhat the fuck are people farming for?I have 280/280 inventory like at all timesonly shit i need is blueprints and the best few guns in the game are shit tiers or a green or like 2 blues
>>550326119Because there is no PVP in solo and any clips showing """pvp""" in solo is just some faggot camping and ambushing a player that most often doesnt even bother to defend themselves, or cant due to being in the loot menu.
>>550326115Art director Robert Sammelin said that the ARC Raiders devs “...analyse behavior and match accordingly.”He said that during an interview with the Jewish company PC Gamer.That's the only proof that we have on the subject.Everything else is speculation from schizos.
>>550326184If you do the expedition you can earn up to 5 permanent skill points based on your net worth at the departure date, and it gives +12 inventory space permanently. Honestly I think it should be more like +24 since I think that's what all the bought upgrades were.
>>550326269>randomly brings up jews in a discussion about developer commentsAverage """"""""PVP"""""""chad""""""""
>>550326394>based on your net worthhow do you even check this shit
OC, don't steal.
>Absolutely heem the shit out of some battledad>Starts crying on mic about how he barely has time to play because of work and I'm ruining his free time>Knock him outKek
>>550326478>step 1: look at how many coins you have>step 2: crtl+click all 280 items in your inventory, then right click to see the sell button and how much you would earn if you hypothetically sold all right now>step 3: add the two numbers together
>>550326530lmfao
>>550326530Do you think Embark would have bothered to make this game if they understood ahead of time the demographic that extracts the most enjoyment out of it?
>>550326530kill yourself
>>550326530then everyone in the bus clapped
>>550321739>3 runs in a row where some dumbass has opened up on me while I spam don't shoot>every time i've turned it on them and wonI'm never escaping this place
>loot pools horrible>dropped the ball with expedition>pve is a joke>sociopaths openly gloating about wasting others timeyeah this game is done
>>550326993Don't forget>get attacked by a nigger>enjoy my FREE KIT>the masses still won't consider that perhaps maybe freekits are overtuned and it's too easy to aggressively murderhobo with them.
>>550326962You have to do the ritual of chungus. Run freekits and actively seek out the orange jacket + dreads combo then just stand there while he epicly pvps your head off and let him knock you out. Then select the :( face in the survey.
>>550326530xD you sir are an epic troll!!!
Had an epic chungus 100 match where everyone minded their own business even in red loot zones and on the metro a guy came up to me holding a rubber ducky
>doing stella night run for trials>hear a dude screaming for help>me and another guy run to him>see KOSgger winding up to knock him out>two headshots with my anvil>defib the victim>tell him to knock the cunt out>he beats him with his raider toolPraise be, we will all stand together to protect Chungartha from these dark-skinned vermin.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtPCILikU4M
>>550327084Jokes aside, i think that actually is the strat.
>>550327430Everyone seems to be getting down with the chungus because of the fucking retarded 5 million dollar bill embark gave everyone. Turns out cooperating and ignoring every other game system is the winning move. Great game you fucking swedish retards. I hope you have a miserable fucking vacation. >>550327473>used a gun on a personYOU HAVEVIOLATED SWEDISH LAW AND BEEN EXILED FROM CHUNGARTHA AND NOW MUST DO PENANCE. 5 ROUNDS IN KOSNIGGERVILLE
>>550327692Yeah pretty much. I don't mind kos lobbies and I gravitate towards them myself even though I'll try to chat with people every now and then. Now there's just no point since nobody runs gear worth actual money anyway so chungus lobbies it is.
How many matches of KOS do I have to deal with If every match I've played since installing I've been PvPing?
>>550327473>Chungartha
This game put extraction shooters back on the map.BIG WIN!!!No more hero shooters.No more battle royale.Everyone is going to be copying this game.Expect 999 generic ripoffs.Call of Duty DMZ and Marathon were killed by company executives, how incompetent can you be?!
>>550327962>I sentence you to 500 hours of being shot on sight by Mexican teenagers playing on their dad's xbox. Take him away.
>>550328148It's infinitely more fun going into stella montis night raid with free gear and continually improving my gear with stuff I get from killing people --> wiping --> and repeating the entire process than levelling the benches, chicken or respecing.
>>550328129The COD Audience being given the tools to extract camp would develop a game environment so toxic the servers would require the same iron shield they put over the Chernobyl power plant
what if you can't finish the deck before the new one is out, anyone know what will happen?
>>550328254Well you're definitely failing your first parole hearing. Hope you enjoy hard labor down in the Stitcher 1 mines.
>>550328326start grinding. play stella montis with a free kit.
>>550328069I will make better Chungartha memes after I'm done with the fucking 5M.
>>550327692Actually superior to Dune Awakenings deep desert situation where streamer's chat would harass and gank anyone not in their little following bleeding the player base out permanently, even raiding and destroying bases while they were offline making sure anyone that invested time into the game never returned.Feigned progress with 'levels' changing .5% of your character's performance and these quests willingly reset is buying a small amount of time.
is the garbage leaderboard trial grind ending with the update or notI can't take one more day of this tedious shit, competing with last minute grinders, I need to be freeof course the timer still says 1 day left
PvE trannies are reduced to playing make-believe.KEKCope harder!
MOLEST CELESTE
Ok there is no such thing as chungus on Spaceport
>>550327483based rat queen. would attempt to fertilize her barren womb.
>>550328326I've just been assuming they work like helldivers
Buried city is the worst chungus lands as well
>get out of KoShell and into Chungartha>bring Jupiter to run trials on Spaceport>instantly KOS'd by a freekitter>it's fine, maybe that was an aberration>mfw the next match I bring my Aphelion and get lit up by a stitcher freekitter (also nomic)I swear this game has luck-based matchmaking.
>>550329390I agree, it's nothing but kos on spaceport no matter what. everyone stay out for your own safety
stella montis ending up as the chungartha prime when it was the shadowrealm upon release is pretty funny
>>550329935Et In Chungartha Ego
Peanut with his sly black ppl disses kek
>>550330814Tried telling you hes /ourguy/
>>550313842>if you play in a certain way you get easy lobbies with unopposed lootingYeah it's totally okay and not problematic at all

>>550331151it's not like pvpfags loot in the first place, so it doesn't change much
>>550325027*Knocks you out and sends you pack to Esperanto*
>>550331151You'll still run into rats. Trust me. They don't make them only friendly lobbies. In fact its worse because I trust 90% of people but that makes me play safe. Rats will get ya. They have no honor.
You all whine about rats, but you can't bring yourself to admit that this game would be trash without a few rats in the mix to keep you on your toes.
>>550329935It's not luck based you're just ringing the dinner bell for thirsty freegroes. Don't be mistaken by the chungus lobbies, they're all niggers through and through.
>>550309427"FRIGGERS could be here" he thought, "I've never been on this map before. There could be FRIGGERS anywhere." The cool wind felt good against his bare chest. "I HATE FRIGGERS" he thought. Blaring siren reverberated through the elevator, making it pulsate even as the adrenaline shot circulated through his powerful thick veins and washed away his (merited) fear of extract campers on night raids. "With a snap hook, you can go anywhere you want" he said to himself, out loud.
>>550319603>>550319041>>550319668Successful, with near the same score.Loaded in 10 minutes late. Thought I was fucked, but wanted to just finish up for the night, so I committed to trying anyway. Immediately run into a duo."You friendly? Don't shoot!"They popped a shot at us, and we mowed them down immediately with a Vulcano 4 and Torrente 4. Spent the entire run near full sprinting through stella mowing down every arc we could. Ran into another team who was chill and we let pass/extract. I was amazed we basically tied that score being 10 minutes late, but we kind of threw stealth out the window for that run.
>>550331589The fuck you mean trust you, I've been well aware of this system before anyone else and abusing the shit out of it. Not giving a fuck about loot while on a pvp raid because whenever I run out of any crafting mats I just go naked and loot whatever I need with no resistance is dumb af. Lobbies with free loot making already sparse progression even quicker to max out is dumb af. Certain playstyles being rewarded is dumb af.Wait until people realize you don't even have to die a bunch to get to chungusland - you can play the same copy of the game with several accounts through steam family sharing. One acc for pvp and another for farming and muling will become the meta. As cancerous as naked BP farming is(I got ~30h on that shit), at least when you're done you're done as long as you don't wipe. The chungus meta however is forever.
Reminder that Stitcher is the best full-auto gun, with the fastest headshot TTK(same as Bobcat) and zero bloom and recoil.
What if the extracts just closed up for a minute or two if they detected a kill nearby? Would force the campers to move to a new extract to secure loot or to wait it out in a dangerous area after making their presence known without interfering much with the gameplay flow. Last extract excluded ofc.Thots?
Has anyone here ever found a purple gun blueprint besides the bettina?At this point im not even sure they exist
>>550332562I got a bobcat bp from trials.
>>550330814>"Goopa" started as a subtle way to bait Myth>Makes redditors seethe every single time it's said
>>550332664Same from the matriarch trial
>>550332664So is that the only way to get them?Are they even a potential drop?
>>550332562Tempest is about as plentiful as Bettina these days but they drop from different containers for some reason. Residential places(apartments on dam, pharmacies on Buried) is your best bet.
>>550332973>So is that the only way to get them?I suppose so, never seen a bobcat BP drop outside of the closed gate event (not in the game right now) or from trials.
>>550332973>So is that the only way to get them?yes
>>550333435that would be annoying if the bobcat wasn't a shitty version of the stitcher
>24h left of leaderboard>everyone exploiting snitches and trios
GODDAMIT I HATE CARRYING IN THIS FUCKING GAME. WHAT THE FUCK MAN I DOWN 5 DIFFERENT PEOPLE WITH MY TEAM AND THEY ARE SOMEHOW ALWAYS DOWN WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK.
>>550334140People in the bottom half of IQ think that doing anything in combat which doesn't involve throwing yourself at the enemy as "pussy gameplay" or something similar. With chinkoids that mentality is replaced by running at high value loot areas without any caution at all.
Spaceport is not friendly bros
>>550334589Ive been KOS there
>>550319145no, if you have 20 other liveservice slop games to play. i regret buying this game after 100 hours cause i have no time to play all of them
>>550334589are you trying to do spaceport loot? I heard thats highly contested, if you're doing night raids, that and buried city are the maps newfags think>oh its time for me to start pvping at night
>>550334941kek this. thankfully i afk fortnite weekly but had to drop bf6 for arc raiders because im tired of rotating between games.
>Still stuck in KOS lobbies>Another idiot fails to oneclip me and dies>Have enough aura that one dude trying to play friendly but angling me constantly is too scared and never really has an opportunity>Find someone else near an extract and force the lobby into chungus mode as we all extract together>The fake friendly ruins his chungus karma by headshotting the other dude as soon as the gates closeI could slap phonk music on this and farm 12 year old engagement on tiktok at this point
>>550312069The only time I use mic is when after fight our squad has knocks I tell chungi we just downed I am gonna defib them once I res my brosThat way they are easier to loot
>>550312069As someone pointed out, self defense isn't allowed in swedenYou just murdered someone with a gun, and guns are evil
I am KOS in duos is this bad? Ive been fucked on too many times to be nice especially on buried mccockner map and the stella one
>>550335358I think the queue is separate from solos but I have no actual idea, I tried trios near the beginning of the game and then never touched it again
>>550335358Nope, duos was the most favored team makeup for tarkov and is almost entirely pvp oriented in this game too. You also get matched into 3's a lot and NOT shooting first/getting the first knock on a trio is asking to lose.
Hopefully this actually looks good ingame.

>35 year old anon who was in the gym last decade watches people play videogames and cares what they say or do
>>550332549A lot of these niggers don't even care about the loot and will kill you as the doors are closing and there is no time to loot.
TheBurntKINOYou guys getting the goop?
>>550336102bruh look at dis dood
>>550331151The looting isn't unopposed. Others try to take the loot first. It's still a competition for the loot. Just not one where you kill each other over it
>go to Stella Montis duos with friend>bring in Toro 3 and Rattler 4 just because, and a ton of grenades>friend is just a moron and is always in the open, gets shot at by enemy team then runs through a door and dies to pop immediately. Totally fucked on positioning, try to revive him then get rushed and killed by enemy teamWhat level do you make your teammates get to before you play with them. This nigger never plays solo so I have to constantly baby sit and teach every little mechanic.
>Finally get an item return from a cheater>It's a fucking free kitEnd me
>>550336329>>550336703I imagine you'd be able to take off the horns. Either way it looks cool. It has like a futuristic pagan vibe. Way cooler than everything else they've been putting out.
>>550336947they gave me an extra Snap Hook from the item return lmao, it was in my safe pocket
>>550336102death stranding type shit
Social media would lead you to believe stella is the ebin pvp zone like tarkov labs but Spaceport is the real warzone nigga
>>550336962I do like how it and some of the newer skins look. it makes me wonder who they had making the ones we have right now
>>550335505>You also get matched into 3's a lotThis hasn't been the case for a long time now.

>>550338440The one thing AI is good for, is funny audio like this.
It felt so good to quit this garbage game to be honest.Blueprints grinding? How about I just don't play this fucking game and play something else instead.
>>550338536The exceptions will continue to grow until you gobble AI slop all day every day.
Nice reward for this one.
>>550337573>damrun around and get surprised by someone >buried cityhide in a fuckin building rat central>spaceporthide in a building and snipe people and not have to worry about shit>bluegaterun around till you see someone fight a wasp then kill them>stella montiseveryone runs around looting because fuck 5 million
>>550338702the odds of someone seeing this bounty and also ending up in the same raid as the bounty has to be like nigh impossible
Those fucking pieces of shit at Embark really messed with the matchmaking algorithm, I keep running into kosniggers now even though I never shoot at anyone. Can no longer do my trials in peace.
>>550323747If I don’t kill people it means there is nothing else going on, I just waste time waiting for animations to endKilling people is end goal in itselfI don’t think it’s related but I am also a “bad person” kind of, I just enjoy being cruel, in real life or in gameSuch is life, though I don’t ever do it in any way I would deem unjust, I spawn with minmaxed loot, stitcher 4, trigger nades and I fight until I either kill literally everyone I can hear hear on the map or I get killed so it’s not even about lootI routinely have inventory of 100k+ and I still go and fight if I hear gunshotsMore thrill that wayI am much more curious how much of a wallflower one has to be and run around holding hands with strangers with no goal in mind
>>550338790Yeah. It's a novel idea but with the current systems in the game it's impractical, so that website is more like a noticeboard for people raging at someone who killed them.
@550338575bye nigger
PvE is boring. Playing solo is boring; everyone is a bunch of scared pussies, and absolutely cringe. Joining a team is absolute hell; your teammates are either retarded or loot bots. If the devs are not going to focus on PvP, then make the PvE enemies more difficult.
>>550338575Ideally you should kill yourself (in real life)
>>550339174>make the PvE enemies more difficult.the retarded masses won't allow the devs to do so; they will whine until they sand out every ounce of friction from the game
>>550336102>retarded outfit that makes you an easy targetplease wear this outfit.i'm tired of players using the pre-order skin.
>>550339465How does it make me an easy target? Like I said, you'll most likely be able to take the horns off.
>>550339174>introduce more robots>pvers rejoice>streamers that wear snapbacks get mad that theres a bunch of annoying robots and they just wanna go around and kill people
>>550339535Me personally, I'm looking forward to being a horny boi.>>550339668I'm a pvp player and I'd love it. More arc means more information so I can gank people aggroed by arc and bait people by aggroing arc on myself.
>>550339784okay but they will increase TTK so that wont be easy kills
>>550339174>teammates are either retarded or loot botsthis is why i don't play duos or trios anymore. loot bots need to go back to playing solo.
>>550339901What the fuck are you on about?
>>550339992since you're a psychopath you wont be able to melt people in under 2 seconds anymore
>>550338648Shut up Wall-E
>>550340057Not sure why not but even so, it really wouldn't stop me from getting kills, just make it longer.
>>550338006Oh look, the PvE trannies made a website.Time to post bounties on my favorite streamers.
>>550338006>>550340572Damn, this guy was mad lol.2x Anvil Splitters.
>>550338125you need proof of it:3
cool game
>>550340868anvil splitter is worthless
30 minutes?
>>550327483She is swallowing the KOS pill. Based.
>>550341459that's weak mental typical of niggers and womenI get kosed and betrayed and extract camped sometimes and I don't immediately turn into the joker
>get fucking owned trying to do a gay quest>swear I'm going to shoot every nigger I see next round>paralyzed by people being nice, can't shoot them>guard lowered progressively until next time I'm owned>foreverially shit at PvPNo game has been worse for my psyche since DbD
>>550341628Does that mean you have strong mental or r u a pussy
>>550341856let's see>you don't take revenge on other innocent people just because you got wronged? what are you a pussy?guess I am
>>550341843>paralyzed by people being niceYou fear consequences that don't exist. Take the psycho pill.
Did they change player density? Yesterday a friend of mine bought the game and we did some duos and it was barren. We only had like 2 pvp encounters across millions of raids.
>>550342120yes the game lost 97% of its playerbase in the last 2 weeks so they adjusted matchmaking so it doesnt take 15+min to find a match
>>550342120>millions of raidsHow could you do 6 gorillion raids in 3 years if doing just one raid takes hours? The math doesn't add up
whens the fucking update, I just woke up and nothing>check clockoh 7min cool
>>550341159but probably a big incentive for the kind of person who'd use that kind of thing. a lot of people still think rare things are good and strong
FIVE MINUTES?IS THE GAME SAVED? BALANCE PATCH INCOMING? FREE KITS DESTROYED?
>people on my friendlist still midraid
The NVIDIA backpack is pretty cool. It has green fluorescent on the sides.
>>550342696if there are any balance changes, they did it to the hulbreaker again. can't have a gun that's exclusively used against arc being in any way useful
WHERE IS MY UPDATE
>>550342939thanks for making it easier to see and shoot you dumbass
EMBAAAAAAAAAAAARK
>SWEDEN
I thought the update was 4:30 ETDid I just sleep for nothing?
DOWNLOADING 13GB
>>550343023Can you stop shitposting here 24/7? Or at least get a tripcode so I could filter you?
Why are you expecting it now? I can't see Embark announcing the time anywhere. The normal patch time is ~1.5 hours from now.
https://arcraiders.com/news/cold-snap-patch-notes>Added Skill Tree Reset functionality.>Added an option to toggle Aim Down Sights.>Wallet now shows your Cred soft cap.>Various festive items to get you into the holiday spirit.>Moved the Aphelion blueprint drop from the Matriarch to Stella Montis.>Added Raider Tool customization.>Fixed various collision issues on maps.>Improved Stella Montis spawn distance checks to address the issue of players spawning too close to each other.
IT'S UPhttps://arcraiders.com/news/cold-snap-patch-notes
>>550343195>Added an option to toggle Aim Down Sights.What kind of psycho would do this? Maybe they have inverted look too.
THEY BUFFED THE RATTLERAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHSHSCGHSF GKFG SKJA GJSDLA gijsda gk
THE UPDATE IS FUCKING NOTHINGFOOLED AGAIN
holy fuck streamers are so retarded>welp time to reset it's update time>just gave all my blueprints to a new playerbrother in christ, they have been saying for 2 months it's on the 22nd
>>550343258Hold to ADS causes you to contract muscles that are also used for aiming, and holding ADS while ratting/holding a position is annoying, especially because you don't want to make more sound ADSing.
>Even though the Rattler isn't intended to compete with the Stitcher or Kettle at close ranges, it is receiving a minor buff to bring its PVP TTK at lower levels a bit closer to the Stitcher and Kettle.>They admit that stitcher and kettle are fineGame's fucking cooked lmao
>>550343543just read that line myself and tabbed back in here, it's completely fucked there's nothing about shields being buffed either to offset it
>>550343543They are admitting to being genuinely retarded
made it to 100k, I think I'm safe
hope you all stockpiled deck coins before they capped them to 800 :)
>>550343597>>5503435860 gear progression is real and intended, LMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

>Security Lockers are now dynamically spawned across all maps instead of being statically placed.YESSSSS
>>550343721Another dogshit mechanic from HD2 makes its way here
SO... We have an actual endgame gameplay loop now?
>>550343729I think i'm done now, i'm so tired of the rat fests
>>550343809Oh my god this gives me hope they can make building dynamically lootable tooNo more youtubers going>THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE BEST BUILDING TO LOOTif it's random every game, you'll just have to play the game
>Increased the number of simultaneous footstep sounds and increased their priority.
>>550343809I'm gonna go on a stretch and say they didn't implement any new spots for them, it's just that the old placements have a chance to not have them.
>>550343845how? nothing in your pic does anything for longevity
Slide peekers are on suicide watch
Game is fuckedIm going back to bed
>>550343846Time to rat myself, fuck it.
>>550344005damn, I was abusing that slide roll shit
>>550343980after the stealth nerfs pre-stella, keyrooms were barely worth hitting if you were blueprint hunting, all the way up until now.
>those fucking weapon patch notesYep these devs are retarded.>>550343610How did you achieve that? I'm struggling to break past 70k.
>stay up for new content>the first cold snap map is 2 hours awayswiggers
>you can now waste your deck cred on useless junkwhy would anyone do this
>cap on credsgay faggot devs
>>550344224>How did you achieve that?Only one I didn't do solo was the wasp damage, grouped with two others who brought more scanners and wolfpacks, plus lots of gun. Also shoot any snitches you see in the distance so they come to you and spawn more.
>>550344238yeah why the FUCK would they not run a Cold Snap event as the patch releases
when i wake up will i have patch?
some notable patchnotes if nobody is reading them>Electromagnetic Storm: Lightning strikes sometimes leave behind a valuable item.>Increased some item and blueprint spawn rates in Stella Montis.>Added Skill Tree Reset functionality in exchange for Coins, 2,000 Coins per skill point.>For ranks up to Daredevil I, leaderboards now have a 3x promotion zone for the top 5 players. New objectives have been added.>Added a new ‘Cinematic’ graphics setting to enhance visuals for high end PCs.>Added an optional Round Feedback button on the final end-of-round screen to open a short post-match survey.>Now players will be guided to Windows settings for microphone permissions if needed.>Increased loot value in Epic key card rooms to better reflect their rarity.>Expanded blueprint spawn locations to improve availability in areas that were underrepresented.>Playing an instrument now applies the ‘Vibing Status’ effect to nearby players.that's just the ones that stood out to me, you guys should read through it yourself if you carehttps://arcraiders.com/news/cold-snap-patch-notes
>>550344241They didn't even put the actual good attachments and augs in there because God forbid people who play a lot get rewarded for it. I'm unironically uninstalling, they're making it pretty clear they don't want players like me in here.
>>550344659at this point free kit shitters seem to be the core audience they're after
Just in case someone's wondering, there's no store update this time around. Or they forgor or whatever.
>>550344241>cred cap is 800>dogshit rewardsI'm keeping my 9k creds thanks
So is the game saved?
>>550344798It's over
And they didn't even mention the 5 mil expedition requirementThey genuinely are clinically retarded
>>550344798Like a 40/60, good QOL and content fill, dogshit weapon/economy balance.
>>550344798This update is the confirmation that this game is going to die a slow and painful death because of dev incompetency
>>550343974how did you know? you must have played many swedish games before
>>550344994>you must have played many swedish games beforeKill me

>>550343721>cappedyeah, i don't think i'll be playing this game anymore until years later when there's shit to do.
do you think they forgot they added the trailblazer to thegame?
>>550344385Where'd you find people to do it with?
>start game>realise I just can't be bothered>close gamewow, it's really like Tarkov now
>>550345229i was hoping they'd at least let us level past 75, even if it does fuck all. you are fucking hardcapped at any form of progress after like 60 hours of play if you know what youre doing
>>550343845>rare weapons are still shit>rattler buffed>meta greys untouched>shields are still garbage>no reason to use BPs because greys are OP>no actual gear advantage>no reason to do co-op PvE because TTK is fucked>only meta is freeniggering, ratting and loot running for 5 mil>etc etcNo the fuck we don't
tarkov won
>>550345201>>bettina>b-but its the best pve weapon in its tier, not counting the hullcracker!!!!!!wtf do these niggers think? am I supposed to take the bobcat to hunt leapers or what? fucking retards
>>550345506>best pve weapon in its tier>3 shots for a drone engineLmaoForever sentenced to armor strip bosses to loot a single core and leave
>>550345506It's extra funny because the Bettina is significantly worse than a Ferro for PvEStill technically best "in its tier"!!!
For what it's worth, the event outfit seems to be genuinely good(the phone can be taken off)
>>550345607All they had to do is literally give it +1 damage so it 2 shots drone enginesAt least the durability burn is fixed.
>>550345715>earn 10k credits to receivenigger what?
>>550345607yeah thats the fucking joke, its worse than the ferro, its worse than the anvil, its worse than the renegadeoutclassed by literally every other tier against ai but enjoy the 2 rounds for pvp lol
new skin in store if you restart
>buff the one grey weapon that actually made sense being where it was at>buff the bettina slightly, but it will still be shit>buff shredders which were already the most dangerous ground arc and are only on a single map>touch nothing elseWHAT ARE THEY EVEN DOING
>>550345763That's merits, the event currency. 100exp per merit or you do the event "project".
>>550345763That's the event xp track requirement retardAlso new Deck where?
>>550345840I thought they're gonna add the Misthorn from the Cold Snap trailer. Also this one isn't even buyable with tokens, you must spend money.
>>550345763bro play the fucking game
anyone else manage a higher cred stack?
>>550345987kys nigger>>550346023nah im installing the update right now
Another set of retarded changes by people that can’t even play their own gameTrials confirmed to retain the same dogshit system for the next split, except autistic grinding is now rewarded even more.
Are there any other extraction games like ARC? I've played HUNT and also Marauders for a bit and enjoyed both. I dislike Tarkov for various reasons. I just really enjoy ARC for its perfect blend of gameplay, skills, maps, etc.
>>550345284the game's official discord, there are lfg channels
please spend your creds on (literally nothing) or you can no longer progress the only progress you were allowed to progress in after 60 hours played.
>only Bettina and (slight) Rattler buffsIt's over.
>>550345840that's not the one from the trailer wtf
>>550346165show hands brownoid
>>550346316the bettina wasnt even buffed. they fixed the durability. im not calling fucking 2 bullets in a 20round mag a buff. NO FUCK THAT
>>550346192AB:I has a lot of convenience features that should've been in Arc at the start, and is fun for its post wipe questing period, but ultimately gets more boring than tarkov fast.
>>550346360there is a new raider deck after expedition finishes, I think it's from that
finally a half decent set to spend my digital delux tokens on....................................................................................................................
>>55034640310% more damage per reload10% faster reloadit got buffed more than the venator got nerfed
>>550346313(daily limits btw, wouldnt want you to spend your hard earned creds too fast)yea, see you next (actual) update /arg/
>>550345757Didn't they stealth patch this? I swear the last time I picked up a Bettina it was two shotting rotors.
>>550346593you're either being ironic or incredibly low iq. try context outside of your % brainlet
>>550346627They might have nerfed drone rotors because a stitcher now 4-shots them instead of 5.
>>550346701
>>550344659Why should losers dictate everything?
I was right, the hullcracker nerf was the canary in the coalmine. It's not going to get better (balance-wise).
how the fuck can the devs be this retarded
the skill tree is still retarded and bad too, just figured i should mention that. there are still some skill points that id take over like 15 points across other nodes.
>>550346960Why does it feel like every dev team ever can't do meaningful balance ? Obviously listening to players isn't a possibility since they're retards, but devs always give the distinct impression that they are not understanding they're own games and that they try random changes to create the illusion of a long-term balance.
https://www.reddit.com/r/ArcRaiders/comments/1pnxulp/massive_w_embark_this_is_only_the_first_25_months/reddit is loving it
So with the possibility of resetting your skill tree now there's little point in doing the expedition?
>cred is capped at 800>it also resets if you do the expeditionANOTHER reason not to do the expedition if you're sitting on thousands of deck cred already
At least the game's performance seems slightly better.
alright, oldfags... tell me who this is
>>550347516it doesn't reset
>>550346192seconding arena breakout, it has the best qol features of any extraction shooter and feels fun to play while still having some depth unlike arc raiders with 0 depth
man the stamina cost for sliding now is insane
>>550347423>no toggle for auto mantle>garbage balance changes>cold snap is just another lame event that will probably be broken and removed like hidden bunker and locked gate, which we still have 0 ETA on when will be coming backI hate everyone
>>550347681missing a pair of these
Do these people genuinely not play their own fucking game? Like who was hurt by the fact I have 10k creds? If I can't earn more because I played too much I guess? I won't even play in the first place. This is dumb and I won't be bothering

https://old.reddit.com/r/ArcRaiders/comments/1pnhhut/i_encountered_the_worst_extraction_camper_of_all/SBMM is real
>>550348020Think of the boardmembers, anon. They need the peace of mind that comes with a p2p game's cosmetic system being fucked up, paid-only and removed from account progression. Tf2 and league's initial systems success was just a fluke!
3 things I've noticed. >Sliding now costs a small amount of staminabut sliding still recovers stamina so long slides will still give you a net positive>the item wheel now keeps the position of your items the same instead of moving them whenever you ran out of an item in a slotnice change, always sucked going for something and finding it in a different place>the skill point that gives you faster looting feels much faster nowI don't know how much faster, but some items are popping up nearly instant
>>550348230console fags are something elseboth of them are retards
Did they buff BP drop rate? I got 3 in the last 2 raids>smoke grenade>silencer 2>vertical grip 2
>they capped raider deck creditlol that’s fucking cringe as fuck

>>550348465Honesty, unless they rolled another deck right away, it was clear they'd have to reset points or cap them. Just another shortsighted decision on their part.
>>550348465>>550348773at least they added a "Cred shop" so there is something to spend them on
>>550348382>the skill point that gives you faster looting feels much faster now>I don't know how much faster, but some items are popping up nearly instantThe animations are bugged, the search progress begins from the moment you press E on a container and not when the UI actually opens. Hatches also insta-extract you as soon as you press E.
>>550348773i dropped helldivers 2 solely because of the currency caps, this game will probably be soon to follow, devs are turbo retards

Ha haThis sucks man
>>550350067Basic field crafting has no business being a carrot on a stick to prevent you getting 2 trees at max level. The fact that it isn't a base part of player's capabilities ingame is a friction point itself.
how hard were the shredders buffed? can you still easily run past them to the loading bay exit?
>>550350212I don't have much to complain about myself compared to some, but I agree with you.
Apparently the Aphelion BP spawns in Stella now, and they increased BP drop rate there. Might be worth checking after the expedition (I'm still burnt out from spamming that shit place to get my 5m).
>>550350049You are retarded man. I'm telling you I'm looting players bodies way faster
everyone on reddit is saying stella montis is dropping bps like crazy right nowprobably worth doing some runs before they fix this shit

>>550350506>he's not even readingFuck off
>>550350602why didn't you just read the patch notes yourself?
why is everyone so angy
Apparently BPs are dropping pretty fast on Stella right now. Hopefully they don't overpatch this, so I can farm there after the wipe.
>>550350595it should last a while. they already interrupted the intern's holiday, it's probably illegal for swedes to do it again so soon
>>550350836I'm playing the game and any other game I play will have some youtuber reading the patch notes word for word so it surprised me
Should I play tomorrow after I've reset my character with an expedition? Seems like a waste of XP to play nowalso go play THE FINALSit's a really good game and you get a skin for arc raiders
>>550350648I understand what you are saying you fucking dipshit retard. When you press E you begin the loot function which makes the first few items lag behind the animation. I get that. But I'm saying a body with 30 fucking items on it is taking way faster now to loot the entire thing than it did before this patch. Kill yourself
>>550351180You won't be resetting tomorrow. They're just opening the expedition window tomorrow, meaning that you'll be able to "sign up" for it. Everyone departs at the same time on the 22nd.
>>550351184>"I understand what you are saying">Still replied with the obvious>Mad that I'm re-pointing it out to him
>>550351180Holy fuck how do so many people not understand how the expedition worksIt was so funny hearing Peanut's friends going "well we're going to reset first, and you hold onto our blueprints, and we work to get you the 5 mil, and then you trade us your blueprints and reset, I read it on reddit"While everyone in the chat is going>that's not even how the expedition works they wrote a whole post about it
Surely you guys didn't think they would make a massive sweeping balance patch 5 days before wipe? The balance patch is coming after we wipe on the 23rd. Trust the plan.
>>550351365It would make massive sense for them to do it to give people time to gauge whether or not they want to wipe.Unfortunately we are dealing with swedeniggers.
Apparently you can get a skin for playing The Finals but looks like it's just a Ryder recolor.
>>550351659Do they have an article somewhere? I don't want to put in the effort to figure it out myself.
>>550351786Doesn't look like it. I just saw it on Plebbit.
>first box i open on stella montis>blueprint
Why the fuck is there not a single interactive map that takes into account Night and EMS when they all have different spawns from Day?
BP spawn rates have been increased across the board looks like. I got 4 drop in like 3 raids not even on Stella. Maybe they did this to incentivize people to wipe.
Why does the shield not absorb 100% of damage until broken? When you get shot in the back, or shot with high damage weapons (farro, anvil) your health is so low when your shield is gone you only option is either: die, or run away. It just takes too motherfucking long to shield up and get your health to full. The time it takes you to stand there and health is nearly the exact same time it takes for anyone to rush you down and kill you because you literally have 80%+ less HP/shield than them.If it takes you 7 seconds to run, shield/heal, and get back to fighting force, your attacker (if in close range) takes only 8 seconds to run up to you and shoot you again/kill you. And it isn't always that close either, if your shield is broken from getting shot in the back, you have literally no chance at all to fight back and running away isn't probable because they can run just as fast as you can too. It's just too easy and too good to be the person shooting first, sneak attacking, or bumrushing. There is only upsides to doing that and only downsides to being the "defender". The amount of times I am attacked first, try to run/defend/heal and get killed within the time my shield is charging/health refilling is crazy. I try to fight back, but the literally facts of the matter is that you can not out DPS someone when you have less shield and less health. If I have 1 hp and they have 100, I'm not winning, it's just a fact. Call it a skill issue, sure. But it's more like an inverse graph, it's 10x easier to attack first and kill and 10x harder to run away and defend.
>>550351846>and another oneand I'm in the carebare lobbies, this is great
>>550351838it's on circuits (quests), you have to play any 3 matches
>Get my wish and get thrown into chungus lobbies >No PvP to be had>Nobody wants to PvP because they don't want to go back to the shadowrealm to get molested by cheating bugmenfeels weird man
>>550351846>>550352078omg 2 more
>>550351180>>550351838>>550351659>>550352149The world's greatest game show
>Removed the unsettling "mom?" from Speranza cantina ambient sound..
>>550352172the time I spent in agressive lobbies has made me sure I never want to go back there
>>550352172Kinda hope they change that or just deny aggression matchmaking outright.I like friendly games, but EVERYONE being friendly kind of defeats the point. But eh.
>>550352252Time to beat people up with a stick while yelling "stop resisting".
>>550352172Also i think it only took 3 matches of no player damage done, and one of them leaving a "I HATE PVP WAAH" response to the survey
>skill tree reset is inwhy would I kill my character now?even though my caravan is ready for takeoff
>>550352252>>550352149>>550351838Cool.Ive played WAY too much of The Finals
>>550352469then don't, holy shit you redditards are complete morons
>>550352286based swedes with their herobrine reference
>>550352149>>550352252>>550352352>>550352470Someone post an ingame pic of the skin once they get it.
>>550352560Its too early right now for me to be playing that, but I'll post it this evening once I do if no one else has done it by then.
>the finals
You guys should be spamming friendly lobby stella montis, this is insane
>>550352639I've got hundreds of hours in it, theres still plenty of people who play it regularly honestly. I'm one of em.Its a niche shooter, but not dead by any means.
How big is the update?
>>550352773is it a hero shooter or basic cod slop
>>550352874both
>>550352874Both, the biggest gimmick is dynamic destruction of the entire arenahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t1TnHMf_M3g
>First snow trios >Cheater blasts the head off everyone in our team in 5sec flatANOTHER GREAT RAID ANOTHER GREAT RAID
>>550352874Neither really, or both depending how you see it. Very arcade like. Lots of chaos which can be either something you like or hate, just depends.There are class, Light/Medium/HeavyEach class has a different "ability" they can selectLike grapple hook, invisibility, or quick dash for light, heal beam or turret or demat (basically make walls/floors/etc disappear) for medium, or charge through walls, hook claw, or barrier shield for heavy.Then each class has different guns they can pick, and different gadgets as well. Gadgets have some overlap, nothing else does. Like frag grenades, explosive mines, etc.TTK is a little longer than shit like CoD, but you can still get deleted out of no where. Lots of arena destruction in general which is the biggest draw.The "Virtual game show future sport" lends itself to a lot of varied cosmetics too that never really feel out of place. Even have their own strange "lore" with lots of in game/world "sponsors"I think they thing that keeps it niche however is that in most of the major modes there are either 3 or 4 teams depending on the game, so people feel like they get third partied often or that their win rates aren't high (because it won't be 50/50 with so many teams usually) and respawn timers are long due to players being able to revive team mates. Some modes also have limited self-revives, causing you to have to work to revive your team more.However it is a lot of fun, and I do recommend trying it out if you're curious. It does have some people who have played since the start like myself who can pull some shit newer players might not expect, but I still see newer players regularly enough. Just don't let it get you down if people are pullin some crazy shit you don't know how to do right out the gate.If nothing else, the soundtrack is always fantastic.
so how are the snow and cold mechanics
Just tried the snow condition. Pretty mediocre, at least on Dam. Couldn't find a single Candleberry bush. I'm wiping so idgaf about loot value. 5/10.
just got 3 blueprints during coldsnap
