Why is this games fan base so adverse to pvp? I don't understand why someone would purchase an extraction shooter and then whine about and even go so far as to ask for the removal of pvp elements.
>>
You sound upset

>>730731318
Imagine the thrill of joining a pvpve shooting game...and not shooting anyone. The wholesomeness levels are off the charts
>>
haven't played since early december
the mechanics were just mid for pvp, best pvp guns could shred you too fast, free kits were just a constant resource drain on everyone

You like the current, modern landscape of PvP shooting? I've grown sick and tired of it
>>
>>730731648
No, but, I enjoy the simple and rather forgiving PVP in Arc Raiders. Even if I didn't enjoy the PVP, I wouldnt buy a video game with PVP elements and then ask for it to be removed entirely because I don't like getting killed.

>>730731648
/v/ is awesome. Someone will make a post about something and some mong will make a reply just to miss the point just to talk about how he doesn't like modern gaming. Truly spectacular.

this game is so fucking trash dog
>>
>>730731318
Extraction shooters can be PVE only.
>>
>>730731318
PVP is dogshit in this game, no point in running anything other than free kits and blast everyone in sight, and if i wanted to PvP i'd play one of the many actualy good PvP games out there
The real problem are the rats but that's not an Arc specific problem

Arc Raiders is the natural conclusion of the SBMM era, where a multi-game world champion gets banned for being too damn good. A game for man-sized children.
>>
What's the point of PvP when two of the three best guns in the game are free to instantly obtain and everything that takes a slight modicum of effort to obtain is actually worse?
Do you really like having the same shootouts with the same fucking weapons against people with free/empty kits and no loot, over and over and over again?
>>
>>730731318
It's the redditors. Arc Raiders has the reddit approved "sci-fi apocalypse" theme. So they flocked to it but are too soft to put up with PVP combat and only want simple game play loops of stealing shit and killing robots.
>>
>>730734092
true, u can just tell by the art direction that the game is sterile & boring
and op is a shill
fuck u op u fucking retard

What's with /v/ making strawman fallacies when the Matchmaking system did pretty good job at balancing the playerbase?
>>
>be pvper
>get matched with pvpers
>entire lobby is hiding in the extraction room with their free loadouts waiting to extract kill someone that's never coming
peak video gaming right there

anons love being niggers despite claiming not, so they get mad when the game puts them on games with people that will fight back or even shoot first

>every post about something I don't like is shilling

I like Arc Raiders and I agree with OP that it's absurd to buy a game with PVP then complain about PVP and shame those who partake in it. I just happen to think that it's theme attracts Redditors who behave like this.

Honestly it's because it doesn't even make sense why it has PvP elements at all. There's no reason to do pvp other than to just do it. There are no boss fights. The rewards for stealing someone's shit and extracting with it aren't that big since resources are so plentiful that you don't need to resort to banditry. Getting the quest stuff just through scavenging is not hard and doesn't require any competition. The only reason to do it is just to be an asshole. I feel like if you're into the PVP in Arc Raiders then you should just be playing Halo or something because it's practically pointless unless you're looking to get clapped by a three stack who wasn't interested in you in the first place.

>I wouldnt buy a video game with PVP elements and then ask for it to be removed
But you WOULD buy a videogame with PVE elements and then whine about other players enjoying those more?
>>
>>730734659
that's how i felt about it in general. it doesnt really bring anything new to the table and as far as extraction shooters go, doesnt have the competitive elements of hunt or tarkov. i think that's why there's not much of a pvp scene. there's nothing to encourage it. i see more pvp in solo lobbies but even then youre just playing deathmatch, its not like youre going to get a big payday by doing it. i think arc raiders was just a coop shooter they were forced to add pvp to.
>>
>>730735042

This is such an embarrassingly midwit response I think you should hang yourself. I'm not complaining about people who enjoy the PVE more. I just think it's silly to buy a game with PVP in it, then complain about getting killed and shame players who partake in PVP
>>
>>730735705
No. Yours is such an embarrassingly midwit response I think (You) should hang yourself.
>>
>>730735705
Tbf, people also complain about dying in pure PVP games. It's simply the usual cope.
>>
>>730735891
I think this is the most midwit response of all time, personally, I think (you(yes you)) should hang yourself.

Because a huge chunk of the player base are casuals.
>>
>>730735202
Arc wouldn't have 1/10 of the audience of it was PVE. So many people only bought in because their favorite streamer was gooping.
>>
>>730731318
Because PvP in arc is just a design after thought. At the very least in solos. Having 1.5 seconds ttk in a game when you can hide behind corner and have perfect knowledge of your surroundings is a joke.
Duos and trios work a bit better due to being able to help and cover for teammates but the trashy 3pp still feel horrible.
