I am enjoying the game. Solo queue is great. Lots of voice interactions and gear progression. Ive found a ton more than tech test 2 in just my first couple of hours. Excited to see how the game evolves similar to Helldivers.

MTX can suck my balls, however I understand the need for revenue beyond the $40 if they plan to keep their content schedule up. The prices are ridiculous for what you get though. Reminds me of early Finals.

The total amount really adds up with the sheer amount of 2400/$20 bundles in the store already on day one. I've seen F2P with less aggressive monetization, and this isn't even factoring in the later battlepasses being paid for a triple dip after the initial cheater tax buy in and additional cosmetic store.

The game is just okay.
At an hour and forty played, I really don't see how this distinguishes itself from other extractionshit. It runs very well, but it's the same Pv""E""vP setup where players are the only real threat unless you intentionally aggro the larger robutts while also fighting players.

3 people with enough heavy ammo from long distance and trading aggro, or 3 people with inventories full of grenades and you use the close player spawn bunker to come up and down throwing shit at it. Other yeah if the whole lobby shoots it, it will drop for sure. Like 20k HP.

>>724613532
Extraction genre experiencing a mass exodus, zoomers having a potential vidya upgrade path from fortnite, and Arc not being a shit game that has had those youtubers in its beta/alpha tests haas caused a shitstorm of Arc slop on social media. It's going to get worse in future.
>>
gameplay is fun and fast. Game looks and runs well. Sound design is top tier. AI robots are fucking great

The fact that the character customization is probably the worst ive seen this decade + the fact that you cant collect and mix and match your outfit destroys a HUGE part of what makes extraction shooters fun. Finding a stupid hat that goes well with your gas mask goes a long way in a game like this. Locking entire outfits to 20 bucks a pop really kills it.

Also i feel like the city should have been able to be walked around like a multiplayer hub.
>>
>>724616547
>>724616980
Its so bare bones cause they sell faces/hair in store bundles. Plus the actual skins are very try-hard with all the weird shit all over them. No real simple outfits. Also you can't mix/match between, like Goggles from Outfit A with the actual jacket/pants from Outfit B
>>
>>724617061
its the worst aspect of the game by a country mile. Like cmon, let me customize my guy. Dayz and Tarkov are borderline dress up sims for some people, its a huge part of the Extractionshooter game loop. Go in, get good gear, level up, get cool shit to wear, die, repeat. They could have had your apartment be customizable to make up for it but nope. Shame because the actual GAME is really good so far

>>724606823
I like how organically every other streamer and youtuber started hyping this game simultaneously without showing so much as awareness of its existence before.
>>
>>724618002
PVE is always an afterthought here, they do their job. PVE is to slow players down, alert other people when someone is bogged down by PVE, and sometimes be so annoying you die to it because you underestimate them. I think the only thing PVE needs is a medium sized one that could go inside buildings. Buildings are basically safe zones cause all the rolly shit is a joke and the turrets don't move.
>>
>>724618002
Both the legendary guns are electricity based from the Tech test months ago, and there is some fat projectile launcher that does very high arc damage. The idea is you fight them only when needed for quests/crafting, then later on when you get better weapons farm them to keep crafting/repairing said weapons. It does mean that most people won't give a shit about a rocketeer, but damn is it funny hearing the rockets blast and then a flare pop up.

I think them not making this game PvE was a bad call.

I wouldn't be saying otherwise if this game offered something brand new to the table from a design standpoint, but the combat, PvP interactions and the extraction looting mechanics doesn't offer anything new or interesting that other games in the genre haven't already done, other than just good presentation.

Expanding upon the combat mechanics and mission design to play off the physics-based robot enemies would've been something new and much more interesting to see.
>>
>>724625471
I think the PVE alone doesn't have the bombtastic approach needed to survive long term, it would die faster than Darktide/Vtide nor do you see any potential for mass chaos like Helldivers.

>the way looting bodies works, its just a flat box instead of exactly how your inventory works aka two weapon slots, quick use slots etc
This means shit is just randomly placed around, when in a pinch you might want to loot, swipe a gun or heals and run away
>Quests don't give XP at all, nor is there rep or bartering
This feels weird because so many rewards are worthless and its not like you get a huge payoff of XP for questing either. Maybe down the line there is alot of blueprints but all the good weapon blueprints seem to be from locked rooms+weapon boxes.

It's just ASSFAGGOTS 2.0. I love that this genre would be dead on arrival if it was PvE only. You people NEED to shit on others who are distracted or are not getting good loot. You'll never 1v1 in Starcraft or Street Fighter/Tekken but you'll spend all weekend playing this crap.

I really don't see the point of playing as a squad unless it's with a premade. Solo is great, and in squads you're definitely playing against premades. Rando parties has to objectively be the worst experience.

You're retarded, this game has legitametly amazing sound design.

most gamers don't play with the sound on, you marketing mong. Audio anything is not a selling point, because no gamer tm is listening to the game sounds for 10k+ hours.
You can even have the most amazing music in the game, like Diablo II Act I Rogue Camp theme, but even then people are not listening to it on repeat for thousnds of hours. Game is muted, audiobook or video/stream/movies on the second screen.

The rattler is complete dogshit. Terrible accuracy, damage and ammo capacity. The tooltip says "a cheap offensive option" but it's the most expensive common gun to craft, it's like its only purpose is to teach new players not to use it.

And I actually feel like the hit reg is better for me in this game than pretty much any other OW-style pvp game I've played. If I land my hits, they go down.

That's the reality that coping marketers and devs can't cope with. If you design a repetitive grind game that requires minimal effort except waiting and doing the same repetitive boring braindead bullshit, then people are going to put in minimal effort into it.
Your game is not a work of art. It's a little dopamine factory with stupid delays, so players won't perceive it as anything more than a dopamine factory for getting loot. Sound is irrelevant.

Because 99% of live service games have their biggest player populations on launch, and they steadily decline from there. Even with new players coming in, they are a small number compared to old players quitting or moving onto something else.

you guys are confusing the genres. In competitive multiplayer shooters sound might be very important and/or enjoyable. However you only play it for an hour or a few hours with your friends, which is a number of matches. Great FPS indeed, such as Quake II, Quake III, UT, that I have played over 20 years ago and sitll occassionaly play today, even with the other people, yes. But one 20 minute match is not a 1k+ hours in the game.
What we have here is a time wasting looter bullshit where getting the best loot and hoarding is way more important than very fast movement and reaction times and sounds.
Another fact is, you probably are in the call with your friends farting while playing this bullshit in a group and paying way less attention to the game sounds than to the burping friends anyway. Not to mention most of you are playing these kinds of games high, drunk, and in between the attempts to put your kids to bed, so don't even start talking about competitive shooter to me, you bald fat consoomers of videogame trash slop.

Marketing has to be disclosed as an ad. Major distinction. Content creators are obviously paid to give their "unfiltered opinion" of these mediocre games and they always end up being glowing reviews. The same thing happened with their previous game, "the finals" but to a much lesser extent.

You don't. Sell everything. Do a full clear of your inventory. Then upgrade your inventory. Do that over and over while doing free runs until you gain enough space to hoard everything like you have infinite space. If you really care, keep only the items that upgrade your workspace.
>>
By limiting the loot pool and content to 10% of the game during the server slam they exposed that there's nothing to do and that loot isn't any worthwhile to even load into a game for and if that's the case if you do not play you do not lose.

People cheat farm Tarkov to sell the items for real money as their job.

It's an extraction shooter so ultimately the gameplay is collect shit for quests and crafting. The progression feels pretty good, there's an obvious power difference with higher tier weapons but it isn't so crazy that the game is all stat checks. The warbond system is wack, but unless you're playing single player games that's fucking unavoidable these days. Crafting system has some depth, multiple tiers of benches needed for blueprints you find in game, nothing crazy though. Same for skills, they're mostly utility based like in game crafting or more stamina, the trees are too long in my opinion would've preferred they went wider with less incremental bonuses. Lobbies are fun though, npcs are difficult and pvp can either be instant or take 5 minutes depending on how it goes down. Being careful and prepared is generally rewarded. Extractions are tense but with the larger maps or hatch keys you can sneak out more often than not. I like it, its not life-changing or anything but its a good one to play with the boys.

Wrong. There are tons of MMOs that have been going on for years. There are also shooters like Fortnite and apex. Destiny has been going for over 10 years despite people saying it's dead every other year because they almost always release a massive piece of shit DLC after a good one. There are also mobas, massive games like counter strike that have never faltered.
What doesn't usually succeed is astro turfed shilled mediocre games like arc raiders
>>
>>724641809
It's definitely just some PvE shit game like all extraction games that aren't Tarkov. The PvE is at least good this time around, because the enemies are machines and human enemies always have issues in extraction games (the ai is either too laser accurate and makes you feel cheated or is so dumb that they stick out like a sore thumb compared to players or are too bullet spongy and make you wonder how a human is taking 40 headshots). Machines are easier to make PvE encounters with that feel good and have interesting mechanics and don't break immersion by being hard to kill. Tarkov basically ignores PvE because they know it's a PvP focused game, but this game feels more geared towards PvE encounters like Dark and Darker which is what will ultimately kill it just like D&D. When the entire game because full squads practically ignoring each other so they can rush bosses it will get boring. Solos will die off fast and the entire game will become squad based because the only game is fighting PvE encounters and solos will never stand a chance against squads that slam the best PvE bosses all day. Game should have been built around PvP first and foremost.

>>724643610
Yeah, but everything besides the troll boss on the solo map requires a squad to really beat and then squads wind up with the best gear since they get legendaries and uniques and the entire game shifted in response. In the betas every lobby was full of people just running around trying to pvp. Duos and Solos and Trios were all there. It was a blast. Then they made a solo map. Then they added a lot of bosses with super inflated health pools that practically required trios to fight. Then because there were more trios around, solos and duos would get smeared with ease and most duos would become trios. Solos are now either forced into a shit map with shit gear against other solos or against an entire map with nothing but trios boss rushing in the best gear in the game. Sure arc might not add a solo queue, but the game will definitely shift toward the direction of PvE, hell streamers are already going around saying "friendly, just here to kill the robots!"
Dark and Darker nowadays is just overgeared trio kill squads fighting other overgeared trio kill squads and running bosses all day. You never see any of the fun like back in the betas when the game was more pvp focused and people were just trying to fight players only and largely ignoring the pve aspect. One of the people who blew up with that game, Repoze, went from being the "solo rogue who demolishes trios" to a guy who only played trios.

it is catering to be the most friendly "extraction shooter" there is, that's the main selling point. It's trying to lure in the crowd of people who say stuff like "Oh man I would LOVE to play Tarkov but its too punishing 5 me ):"
It's friendslop that will get forgotten a month or two tops. Extraction shooters either get a very dictated but small player base (Hunt Show Down) or they die really fast. (Marauders) This game simply won't have enough to make the normies stay because of how repetitive the gameplay loop is. It's just babies first extraction game with rose tinted glasses.

It’s not a bad game. I agree the MTX is unreal and only a retard would pull the trigger on them, the skins are clunky and i wouldn’t be caught dead wearing anything other than the meme jihad outfit (if it was earnable)

The game is overall fun though, the players using the mic to beg and cheat is pretty funny, i helped a group extract in one match and downed a bunch of lads waiting for the elevator, didn’t kill them, just shut the doors on them as they crawled towards all yelling at me, it was pretty funny.
Otherwise i don’t really know what im working towards, i dont see a ranked mode or rewards for doing things in game other than quest gear i either sell or recycle as soon as I get.

Not entirely sure what the end game is suppose to be, im enjoying the early game though, gun play feels meaty and the enemy difficulty can get out of control depending on how much is after you.
My only wish is more humanoid robots or vicious ground units to make it more spooky to explore buildings, the rolling droids and turrets are laughably weak

Nah other games have ridiculously short fight windows. Chinkoff and Tarkoff is just just a game where you automatically die to some guy who’s not even interested in looting your body.

The only extraction game that got my adrenaline pumping every single fight was Dark and Darker but the devs ruined it with endless reworks and changes, the games tainted now. DD was the pinnacle of extraction games imo, had really satisfying PvP and PvE, everything was lethal if you didn’t take your time to get the XP on every mob.
Arc raiders I’m enjoying cause i can’t get one shot across the map by some chink who’s not even gonna loot me. I do wish the NPCs were more numerous and varied though. There should be some drone that calls in like hounds from a drop pod that chase you down or something. Arc raiders needs some adrenaline dump moments

First of all, I don't need any updated of the games 5+ years post release.
Second, modding and open source community do way better jobs, esp. re-writing old games. bethesdaslop is a prime example.
Third, nobody needs it, you're just fucking retarded, but you refuse to face the reality and accepting that you're an idiot wasting your money and time on degenerate slop. Your shit is all retarded anyway.

I poopsocked yesterday and had lots of fun, the probability of finding friendlies and more nuanced interactions increases exponentially when you leave the dam battlegrounds, it's just kind of a constant deathmatch in that map. I've been just going through the quests and playing safe but hopefully I won't have to do them again after a prestige since they kinda just feel like a glorified tutorial.
Battle pass is boring, but if it's anything like The Finals then they'll start doing more thematic seasons with factions and wackier outfits.

No, I'm just an adult with a job who understands how businesses work.
If the game doesn't have a continuous steam of income post release, a business will not keep a full dev team working on it. It's not a charity.

Feel free to give counter examples in the form of other AAA multiplayer games with content schedules that don't have some form of MTX. Notice how there are literally none, especially before 2010 when MTX took off?

Solo is unironically the best way to play.
Team raids are almost always PvP focused. Some people don’t even loot shit, they just PvP and loot other players instead.
Solo however is different, especially if you man up and use your mic. Try to immerse yourself in the world instead of treating it like a literal game

Dogs and bulls would make for cool arcs but they seem to just be avoiding real animal shapes in favor of more artificial stuff, which ironically makes them less scary. Humanoid mimics pretending to be friendly raiders would be pure kino too, indoor arcs are just little toys now.

Any good multiplayer game people play to this day, all the old FPS, UT, Quake, even CS, including those rewritten as open source, such as OTTD or WZ2100.
People play Heroes of Might and Magic III in multiplayer to this day, because it is a good game. More than that, it can be done as a side activity a second online game, on a second screen, because it doesn't require a lot of computing power to run in 2025. And who picked up HOMM and made it viable? GOG. Not some rusty ass retard trying to milk everybody for life.
Face it, nigger, life service mtx bullshit is garbage and dies quick. Those multiplayer games, that have a short session of 20 minutes and no grind to get to the endgame, won't die.
For example Chess. Chess will never die, because the game itself is already the endgame. And also it needs no patches and no balance changes. It also have no power creep.

>So your point is "you shouldn't want more content post release" (I do, actually)
Yes, because you get 2 to 3 good chapters at most and the rest is garbage. Any franchise with sequels has proven it. In the movies and in the books too.
"content" is all the same gartbage anyway. Especially in the fucking looter shooter garbage. "new items" and "power creep" to make players stay and grind more and to pay more for mtx is not new content. It's the same treadmill, but with a new color, new bell, and a new whistle. New content is a massive, great, single player campaign with an interesting story. The devs of this game have failed to create one engaging story with one single player cmpaign around it.
I watched parts of youtube videos and the dialogue makes me want to shoot the npcs. Written by the braindead "quirky" millenial fat, pseudo intelligent, retarded cum guzzling faggots.
>and "modders make better content then the devs themselves" (they don't)?

Yes, gamers from 20 years ago had very low standards. We know. Thankfully we've moved past those dark times.
>>
>>724649278
>That's literally what happened though.
No. Multiple things have happened. Like end of story, that led to players leaving the game. A buyout by a retard, who think like a typical stupid businessnigger, who tried to save the game by appealing to China yet largely failed. Which also killed the game for everybody who liked it in the first place. It ended with OGs quitting, then hiding the numbers, layoffs, layoffs, and more layoffs, and then being sold to microsoft. And then even more layoffs. And the game is now long dead, because people developing and playing it now are people playing and developing another game entirely. And they haven't numbers of casual normies.
>I don't understand the point you're trying to make.
the point is that this game is a flop. It'll die sooner than you think. It already has less players as of today, prime day, prime time gaming, than it had on a fucking thursday. Grim.
And yes, also that businessmen don't understand videogames, gaming, or players at all. Those devs, not marketers, who do understand usually create gems.

I don't get extraction games. If you have to wipe your game every few months why wouldn't I just go play a BR or some classic 6v6 style shooter where every game is "fresh"? I feel like grinding for things in video games is just a mentally addictive thing like gambling and devs just take advantage of that. Like at some point when playing these games you have to realize you are grinding items just to grind. Sure you get some player power, but that all gets wiped either when you die or when the servers themselves wipe. I just don't understand it, maybe I'm just too smart for these types of games. This and gacha are just so alien to me.

What is the amount of actual players paying a sub and not bots, I wonder. Too bad they're ashamed of disclosing it. Look, wannabe a businessman, you can easily run an oldschool grindass MMO with 100 players online and a thousand or two total playerbase. And even less. There are examples of such games, that also are and were running for decades. But this is not what businessfags want with live service, is it, they don't want a passion project. They were all jerking off to 12m subs during WoTLK, which is why all of them tried hard to copy it, instead of creating a Minecraft, a Roblox, or a PUBG, or a Fortnite. And now they're jerking off to all those creating trash like this. It's almost as if Anthem and Concord did not teach them a thing.
>And Arc Raiders already sold millions of copies.

the game won't change. Only more ways to extract money from players will be added. Possibly also retarded seasons, that serve the same goal of extracting resources from people IRL.
Not only there is an overabundance of titles like this, it's only a retarded genre at the core. It will especially suck and die fast, if
1. Third world turders won't make off it on black market.
2. there will be no botting and/or services for players to skip the grind by turdworlders playing the game instead.
3. there is no modding.
This game was born dead. We've all seen the paid shill video(s)/and/or streams and most of us did not buy this game.

NTA, but you two are delusional. I know from personal experience that people play SOME games with either no music or no music and sound (while listening to something else).
Hell, i myself mute music in a lot of games because i would rather listen to a podcast or a movie. And then when i am at work or doing something around the house, i listen to music from videogames. There is just simply too much stuff going around in life for you do sit and immerse yourself in. However, some games do warrant immersion and no sound and/or music other than game's (System Shock, Deus Ex, Unreal Tournament, Counter-Strike, etc). If its a brainless game like path of exile - i will mute the shit out of it except the item drop filter. If its stellaris, i will mute that stupid shit and listen to some series or a movie or a podcast. If its Atomfall, or Stalker, i will not bother listening to anything else other than the sounds in the game because immersion in these is important.
>>
>>724650230
I've explained what other people are doing you double nigger. THEY treat this shit like a job and will run this game into the ground because the retarded devs scrapped any repeatable gameplay like PvE co-op raids and turned it into a extraction shooter with extra steps and less to go back to.

They are owned by asians, after abandoning a better position because they wanted that USAID fraud money and now have to scam the rest of the world to appeal to asian cheater markets.

Haha, that was funny

>>724651890
But it's a shooter with VoiP and extraction mechanics with loot drop on death. Surely most people playing this would be using sound just to hear footsteps and wouldn't drown out those footsteps with distracting shit like music and podcasts. There are stakes, this isn't like turning your brain off in a TDM lobby.

It is naive to think so, most people don't believe they aren't playing with cheaters in Tarkov just because they aren't directly targeted when for most of the games life span the connection to the server was unencryped and user position data could be read undetected with a laptop and an app so everyone had access to a free radar.
Now it's just the worst because the cheats developed faster than the Russians could edit their unity spaghetti.

The best time to play is to burn out in the first 3 months when there's enough saturation from naive normal players to enjoy the company of before the rest of the zebra herd dies off and only cheater scalp everone.

Cyberpunk is an amazingly optmized game. That shit runs on 10 year old cards and processors, such 1070ti or 1080ti with just 3gb vram and 12-16gb ram with 30fps and no issues. Even being able to launch a game such as a cyberpunk2077 on 10 year old harware is a feat by itself.

because you have to appeal to the lowest common denominator, AKA those people still using fucking 980s and 1070s. Can't have graphical fidelity be too high or they screech. Even consoles can do basic raytracing now, it's solely those faggots holding us back.

It reminds me of Sea of Thieves. Some cool tech (boat / water in SoT, sound design and optimization in this case) in a really mediocre barebones game

>>724653557
I don't think it's fidelity but asset shop slop instead of talented art direction
>>
>>724653646
I mean, we know pretty objectively it's fidelity, because you have to use certain assets that aren't reliant on raytracing due to those older cards.

Real question why do the guns in this game look retarded? The guns look so unthreatening and reminds me of starfields shitty gun design. It's like the devs were afraid of real guns so they made them all look like water guns.
I'm stunned because the rest of the art looks good imo

That comes later. Right now they have to appear as though they're more "moderate" for the reason the game has an entry fee.

IT's shit they already have in game files which is bad, cause they stripped content away to drip it back as "updates". Nexon taught them well I guess. I hate the way fucking roblox poisoned people's minds about constant updates.

>the only reason there ever was to play tarkov was all the weapons and gun customization
Ripped off 100% in chink tarkov (minus some obscure retarded stuff no one used like certain key combinations to load a single round in the chamber when a gun has no spare mag)
>absolutely retarded recoil system
It's better in chink tarkov, but it's still there as a balancing reason to make expensive gun parts actually change the gun handling

The only thing that's undeniably better in tarkov is locations. Realistic, gritty and atmospheric. Chinese tarkov has some mystery meat asset flip generic "american" locations (with soviet fucking cars here and there for some reason, so it's apparently not US or something, I dunno)

But I can kill people in chink tarkov with (almost) no fear gear and tarkov makes me shake and sweat and I don't enjoy that

if they released all of that at once on launch, you'd play for 100+ hours, then whine that there's nothing new to do, you're a miserable retard who will complain no matter what, even if the jews are indeed evil.

>>724654789
nigga you don't need to add the fucking m4 or scar into the game to add weapon customization

arc raiders is set in a post-apocalypse where people are scavenging what they can get.

embark is a golden goose for nexon, and despite what people say, nexon has actually learned from the various lawsuits over the last decade, they're being extremely supportive of team's individual authority. Also, they were surprised by how well the finals has done (they expected it to last 18~mo before shutdown), so they've given embark basically no leash for arc raiders, the success of it's launch, and the b2p model means they've secured funding probably enough to make up for the extreme dev cycle (though the finals helped with that too), and while we don't know exactly what they're saying, we do know from IR that there are two separate teams at embark right now, one for finals, one for arc raiders. Some transfer happened during crunch for release for arc, but the teams are expected to go back to their earlier positions.
Maybe they open up a third floater team at some point but rn, happy with launch metrics, finals is doing well enough to continue being supported, no shutdown or maintenance mode looming.

I've had more friendly encounters in Blue Gate than not, Dam is pretty much all deathmatching except when people are desperate to leave. Friendlies have been varied for me, I don't care much to team up but had people tagging along and exploring/looting together, while others are happy to go their own ways.
Sucks when you show someone mercy and they just shoot you in return, but the uncertainty is what makes it fun and emotes tend to be very effective.

Despite chungus stories, I'd still say at least 3/4 people in Solo queue open fire or ambush without any intent to communicate. You'll probably have more friendly encounters here, especially if you initiate to start tilting the odds, but PvP is still as omnipresent as ever.
>more about actually interesting shit happening
There are a couple interesting locations, gimmicks you can do, and map mutators like night time with increased ARC activity, but nothing too crazy event wise.
>an actually dangerous environment
The ARC threat is very overblown unless you go out of your way to aggro big ones. If you're half decent at any shooter or action game, ARCs present no threat unless someone attacks you while you're trying to clear them out. You should discount anyone that makes the e in the Pv"E"vP
out to be anything significant

Overall it's fun enough but overhyped to all hell and back at this point.

It will definitely fall to kill on sight niggardry before too long, particularly around season resets (since you don't have to reset if you don't want, I expect lots of ratting around them as people camp out extracts to get ez kits), but for rightn ow it's fine, there are enough pre-set kits with mediocre gear that cost you nothing that you'll NEVER be forced to do hatchling runs or anything, and there's even good variety, you'll never be without gear, so it does well in fighting the gear fear.

so good, heard someone looting, snuck past, almost got ganked by a hornet and rocketeer, get to extract, someone just called it, see them waiting and emote to team up to no response, hatch opens, i wait my turn, loot a bus i'm hiding in from another hornet, he extracts, kill the hornet, call extract, sprint in past another rocketeer, and i'm out
fucking kino
tarkov could never

It's for when I'm doing raids on the train or on the shitter to get resources with a basic kit.
>>
so this raider deck is like a battlepass then?

More into streamers than Youtube I'd say, faggots see their favorite e-celeb or e-thot holding a fat bag of cash say game good and they go "I MUST CONSOOOOOOOOOOM"

i have toned done the boosts quite a bit and it feels nice so far but idk.
horizontal sens is 120. didnt fit in the screenshot
>>
>>724662391
yeah, first one's free, then they'll cost money.
>>
>>724662452
I'm using a lot of hipfire so the zoom boosts are good, especially since most of the time I'm zooming I'm using slugs or snipes.
yours look fine though for sure. If it's comfortable to you, go for it. sinusoidal curve just fucks me up more than it helps, I don't need to relearn how to aim after 30 years thanks.

OP here, I completely agree. I keep seeing this shit in my fucking youtube recs and I don't know why it's getting fed to me bc it's uncharacteristic for my feed. I keep clicking "ignore" or whatever

they really should add a pve mode but with like an extreme amount of bots, night raids are fucking nuts
>>
>>724662391
I think it's more like the helldivers warbonds but I dont think there's an in-game way to earn them.
>>
>>724636553
Suckers, you mean
>>724613976
I played the test, it's nothing special despite the insane turfing. It's shit, esp. for 40$ + extras
>>
>>724662636
I feel like with the way the game's going they add a PVE only map down the line with reduced rarities and rates of gear, and just resources or something like that.
Only reason I can think of to make multiple maps.
>>
>>724662680
in the finals you get enough paypigbux to get the next battlepass but I don't know about this one, I think you only get like 500 out of the current deck and if that's not enough for the next deck then that's just pathetic for a paid game
>>
>>724662697
Maybe they could do a separate progression system for pve or something, or a separate inventory
>>
>>724615436
This is what you signed up for with your $40 + Mtx shop cuck, get used to it or stop playing.
>>
>>724662830
no that fucks things up, tarkov did that and it murdered the playerbase.
They need to stay mixed. Even if people ONLY do the pve map, that's fine, eventually they'll want to make progress and risk going into PVP.
>>
>>724662697
An arc horde map/mode would be cool. I just dunno how they'd keep people from griefing without turning PVP off entirely.
>>
>>724662830
the whole appeal of the game is the mixed pvpve, why are you niggas so rigid about "modes"
>>
>>724661743
I found two osprey BPs, used one, traded one for 2 lemons
>>
>>724662391
yes, the first raider deck is free. Be glad they didn't do the BF6 route and dump a paid battlepass 2 weeks later.
>>
>>724662834

Never trust gook shills. If you see K*trans involved immediately assume it is shit until it is proven predatory
>>
>>724606823
Only problem I can see this game having is that the free kits are extremely dangerous sometimes and it’s reminiscent of early Arma II DAYZ, where a fresh spawn with a makarov pistol is the most dangerous mother fuckers to live and breath.

current skill tree. i debating whether to dig deeper into survival or go conditioning. any ideas?
>>
>>724615809
Wipes are voluntary, but you can't progress whatever the present Battlepass is. and because of gearscore, you will only ever get lobbies with others who are ignoring the battlepass by that point.
>>
honestly idk what to do, i'm just farming parts that I can't use for anything because I don't have enough of them or stuff I can use them for is locked
>>
wait the game is good?
>>
>>724663585
The security breacher one (the upper final passive in survival) is basically required taking, it lets you open the top tier resource/gear caches behind key doors and shit. Every group will need someone with it if they intend to actually gather any materials towards the higher end of crafting.

>>724660793
>assorted seeds
i've got a shitton, but haven't sold yet cause it says some shit about celeste might want them
is there a quest for her to loot these shits that i need to hoard for or can i just sell them
>>

>you will only ever get lobbies with others who are ignoring the battlepass by that point.

NTA but is it a good idea to split the player base like that? It won't be an issue for the first few months but I can see the matchmaking suffering.
>>
>>724664176
makes sense. will work towards it now. i hope we can even get enough skill points... in the tech test people stopped gaining skill points at level 50 apparently
>>
>>724664393
It goes up to 75, they limited to 50 in the tests cause they didn't want people reaching primes in two trees.
>>
>>724652563
>>724619328
>>724652210
Dead internet theory is real
>>
>>724636932
It's for this reason that I feel the $40 tag was just to cash in before the inevitable.
Maybe we should just go back... to charging for solid experiences that stand on their own and moving on...
>>
>>724664320
maybe. they would consolidate the higher tiers i would imagine or just dump scavs into murder squads running full purples.
