>>551166837We're off to a bad start.
please let me refine three exodus modules into a mushroom
i shouldnt have wiped
it's finally done
>>551166837sex with gingy while peanut cries in the corner and cloakzy masturbates on her toes
>>551167492Just keep hitting the kitchen backroom on stella, or do a lush blooms and check all the out-of-the-way little shacks, buses, makeshift shelters etc for baskets.
>>551167492Seconding the stella freezer. Or go to dam hyrdoponics and check around the walls at floor level. There's a spot on spaceport in the trench that is supposed to be good but I swear a teleporting chink must hit it 130% of the time since there is never anything there when I try looking.
>only two settings in the expedition skin>can't even change the fucking colorh-hey at least I get a silly prestige icon next to my name, this reset was totally worth it...
blue gate has to be the worst map in this fucking game
>>551169079this but spaceport
>>551169079for loot yeah its kind of ass with bad spawns but blue gate and spaceport are hitting that sweet spot when i do trios for pvp.
Where's the store update?
Every map is so much worse than chungus stella that there's almost never a good reason to run anything else if that's where your matchmaking is at.
>>551169801yea wtfguess they are too busy on vacation
WOOOO
>>551170484>its already open by the time you get there
>>551170585ok, and? that's not every time, anon
I have lost my spot in Chungartha in attempt to save my fellow Chungarthan
>>551166985oh no haha.. I would hate if this happened to me haha
>>551170780Sad occurrence. I regularly ponder whether I'd even fire at another raider in self defense while in Chungartha. It might feel good to kill them or at least put their life in danger, but I'd be thrown into Ratkanda the very next raid.
>>551170780i killed a man in self defence in my latest run... i hope the gods smile on me
>trying to gather berries>barely have any health left because I'm freezing my nuts off>some guy with the tag "theevilmexican" or some shit starts running around killing everyone friendly>try to hide in a church so I can extract>he does some joker monologue and shoots me as I try to run away with a sliver of healthThis game attracts some truly miserable people
>>551171215please tell me you got a clip of that
Anyone want a seat on the blue gate cuck chair?
Does the store refresh at 11 CET or something? It was always 10 before.
>>551171506That's reserved for those people that just watch streams instead of playing.
>friendly chungus raid, dam harvester>be first to get into the harvester, start doing the puzzle>more people show up, help out; no one is shooting each other>finish puzzle, manage to get dupe Equalizer bp>peeacefully trade with the guy that pulled the Jupiter bp>skip to the nearby hatch while holding hands and dodging rocketeer rocketssuch is the peaceful life of the chungus lobbies
>>551171023i wasnt blessed first game after the silent kos
>>551166752You will never be a real extraction shooter. You have no chase, you have no progression, you have no thrill. You are a battle royale twisted by persistent loot and PvE into a crude mockery of Escape from Tarkov. All the praise you get is uninformed and half-hearted. Genre veterans are bored and unimpressed, "fans" play 2 hours a week and don't know any better.Power gamers are already done with you. Thousands of hours in other games have allowed nolifers to abuse bad design choices with incredible efficiency. Even aspects that “work" look half-assed and flawed to anyone who has played a videogame before. Your risk-reward structure is a dead giveaway. And even if you manage to get a million normies to buy in, they'll turn tail and bolt the second you attempt to require some effort in order to try and give your game longevity.You will never last. You wrench out a shitty cosmetic every single week and tell yourself it’s going to be ok, but deep inside you feel irrelevance creeping up like a weed, ready to crush you under the unbearable weight.Eventually the honeymoon will be over - casuals will move on to the next shiny thing, nolifers will get bored. Nexon will put you on life support, relieved that they no longer have to put actual money into the game's development. They’ll milk whoever's left with increasingly predatory MTX, and the fanboys will keep pretending this game is some sort of underrated gem, just like they do with The Finals. Your playerbase will decay and go to 10-20k, and all that will remain of your legacy is a skeleton that is unmistakably shit.This is your fate. This is what you chose. There is no turning back.
>>551170686just a joke raider
Man rats really say the saddest, most revealing shit after shooting you in the back.
>game update hits>see thisarc raiders is over boys
>need to go somewhere or collect something that only spawns in a particular area >game spawns you literally 1000 meters awayThe game must do it on purpose somehow. It happens too much and too often that I spawn 700-1000m away from places I am holding a key for, or have tracked (mushrooms), etc.
>>551173035Nexon is not gonna like this
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K8xHv0WM-iQ
Did they add the horny skin yet?
>>551172628Remember to clip it so they can be humiliated online
What would you like to see added to the game?
>>551173953Pic related matchmaking so that I don't have to play with your thirdworlder subhuman ass.
holy fall from chungartha i killed one (1) guy in stella while i was trying to kill shredders and he failed to kill me with first shot and ive had KOS for 5 games in a row despite 4 hours of friendly lobbies before that
>this week's announcement is by a discord janny and not actual Embark CM as usualHoly shit they really released the last week's update then immediately shut off the lights and go home didn't they?
>>551170871Be careful or you'll get two or even three mounting at once.
As I told you in the last thread, misthorn is just a (reasonably varied) ombra reskin.
>>551175216there really is no one in the office KEK>>551175512the mask looks like shit too WTFI guess all that snow in the trailer masked the ugliness of itmy coins are safe for another week
>>551175512That looks pretty cool. I hope those horns don't mess with the head hitbox.
New goyslop is gender-coded for women.
>>551175584The mask is kind of cool but the thing is, you can take off the mask but not the horns.
Black cock, or white cock?BBC meme, Foghorn Leghorn?
>>551176113Why and how is a cock producing crafting materials?
>>551176346They just kinda spurt out
>>551176346i just headcanoned it as it scavs around speranza and brings back random shit for its nest and you just take that shit
>>551175795looks like he's wearing underpants on his head
you aight reddit boy
>>551175795about 99% of the outfits are designed for women.terrible.
>>551176645>Sacrifices 10 round of time >Gets 1 round of killing Holy low skill. Imagine having to smurf to use nigger trades.
>>551176645god i love trigger bombs10% because of the general utility and 90% because rats loathe them since they're one of the few things you can do to turn the tables after you just got shot in the ass and have to defend yourself with a quarter of a HP bar
solos is filled with the most miserable faggots its unbearable>no mic>the few that do are giga spergs and parasocial stream faggots>sociopathic will shoot you like they are robots programmed to do it>the balance is so bad they get rewarded for doing it>not a single ounce of fun is had on either side since the fight is extremely one sided if you shoot first at someone who is lootingIm about to just drop this trash
Damn did expedition change everything? I played yesterday and got ratted at the exfil 3 times in a row and shut the game off. It’s gotten brutal with the backstabbing too. Maybe match making got gay?
>>551177719Anon thinks matchmaking was reset with the "wipe".Personally my theory is just that since expeditioners all turned into omega griefers on the last day so they could use all the gear they've been hoarding (on top of it being a weekend which is already an aggro multiplier) it's had a domino effect of traumatising regular and new players. You already see reddit retards talk about ratting because they were ratted in their last game, so multiply that by ten thousand. Anecdotally at least some of the fags shooting me today seem more paranoid than anything, anyway.So I predict it'll normalise in a day or three.
You really get the feeling this is one of those games where the developers are absolute dogshit at their own game
>>551178397>Anon thinks matchmaking was reset with the "wipe".I was in Chungusland pre-wipe and I was still in Chungusland yesterday, so my experience was exactly contrary.
Fun game. Can someone explain to me what I should sell vs keep? I get that you need to keep stuff to upgrade your workstations and other shit, but other than the stuff that is obvious to sell I have no idea.
>>551178503Probably. But in my opinion it is doing the same thing that too many other games that have "failed". They aren't trying or caring hard enough about what they SHOULD do. They SHOULD be balancing the shitty ass grey weapons. They SHOULD be putting out more content (more quests, etc). They SHOULD be making the gameplay as good as possible. They SHOULD be looking at PVP and PVE and seeing what could be adjusted for the better. and so on.But what are they actually doing? Going on vacation. Am I saying they don't deserve a vacation at all? No, obviously I believe that people need a break and all that shit. But I am also saying why release the game in a time frame where you purposefully won't be able to work on it? Why not keep a crew on over vacation (paying them well) and getting them to "fix" the game as it should be? Think of PUBG, they should have dealt with all their cheaters, dealt with all the games problems like how it ran horrendously at launch. But they didn't, and sat on their hands for too long. And the game toppled for it.
>>551179115Don't worry about it too much until you've maxed out your stash size upgrades and at least mostly upgraded your workbenches. And the chicken, I guess. Check the wiki for things needed for those upgrades, but otherwise prioritise cash until you're at 280 slots (plus you'd be suffering for no reason in terms of space if you're hoarding a million springs or whatever). The one exception is probably any ARC parts you stumble onto required for the final workbench tiers, I'd keep those.
>>551179570Got it, so basically sell everything that isnt upgrades. How much basic shit should I keep around? I have like 3-5 stacks of various parts.
4 games since expedition, each time an exfil rat last second. Yawn
>>551179676Everyone will tell you to keep 200 of each... but imo don't really worry about that either until you have some favourite consumables/weapon attachments you're regularly producing. In the early game the chicken alone will probably give you enough to replace your smoke nades or whatever you actually use, especially since you're probably just gonna extract with whatever you find anyway (compared to later when you'll start ignoring basic materials and ammo). So maybe one stack of each just for the occasional repair etc. You'll know when you start needing it, and at that point you can run through your reserves pretty quick in any case and replenish them just as quickly.
>>551172448It’s not that bad though it’s still fun, have you tried crying?
>>551180104They strong in your resolve and you can ascend to chungartha eventually.
>>551179676>so basically sell everything that isnt upgrades.yeah but if it seems like common shit that you're finding regularly (ie not purple ARC parts) you can probably get away with selling those too if it's needed a tier or two from now. But if you prefer to be on the safe side, fyi you usually only need one, or at most two stacks of upgrade items, so feel free to sell the rest too since they're usually decent cash.also you may want to get the chicken done early because the fruit/mushrooms are kind of annoying if you aren't seeking them out specifically and take up stash space. the collar, cat bed, and three pillows you can find in residential areas. the park in Buried City has lemons and apricots. shrooms, apricots and cactus fruit you probably already know are on the Dam (there's better places but if you're keeping an eye out early that should be plenty). for olives you'll have to go to Blue Gate though
>>551180161>>551180896Thanks anons I appreciate it
>>551175512>>551175795The password is.. sneedellio.Could you imagine being an Embark artist and just adding like 2 things to a stripped down model from a freelance artist, putting a couple drops of a paint bucket tool to change colors and charging like 15 dollars for it per individual copy purchase? Embark eating good, even if its only falaffel now.
>at work>swear I can hear Pops nearby
>>551181701the fucking background chatter in the speranza menus keeps making me want to spin around and scan for a raider nearby
>>551181701It's your rat coworkers you need to watch out for.
https://www.reddit.com/r/ArcRaiders/comments/1ptp730/aggression_based_matchmaking_has_me_stunned_and/Another gets a taste of Chungartha
>>551176645I think i just had a guy like this in my lobby. he was going around shooting at everyone and died to a rocketeer
should I spend some of the free funnymoney I accumulated on the driftcoat outfit? it makes Body Type B's butt look good
FUCK SHREDDERS
>>551181910The background chatter sometimes makes me think there is someone in my house, freaks me out.
Aggression-based matchmaking is absolutely dogshit and has no place in these kinds of games. Actually really funny to think these Swedes thought they were being clever when in reality it's the most ham-fisted, blatantly obvious mechanic in the game.
I don't think I've ever actually seen the locked gate event active
>>551184039It's obviously a negative for a pvevp game if you create a situation where people are walking around trying to get killed and refusing to fight back based off of just a rumour about the matchmaking.If it's real it'll be devastating long term. People were able to grind their 5m in a week in passive lobbies, why would they keep playing once they've comfortably got everything?
>>551184480>if
reformed kosGOD has seen the light and is now an illegal immigrant of chungartha...
>>551184480>rumourthis is the only real issue with it. I get that they're probably still evaluating how it should actually work, but sooner rather than later they really need to clarify shit for exactly that reason.
>>551184594I think a lot of it's bollocks because players, especially solo, have quickly worked out that the game gives pvp no incentives.You see this consistently no mater what you do yourself in game.
>go out collecting garbage>use it for upgrades and sell it>slave away to build a casket on wheels to launch yourself into the next seasonal reset>rinse and repeatThat's it? This is their grand plan for ARC Raiders endgame? Honestly, after watching the making of ARC Raiders documentary, the initial concept where the players hunted giant robots seems like a more viable game model than the final product. However lacklaster it might have been, compared to other PvE co-op games on the market. Sure, the Queen and Matriarch are still in the game, but who'd bother doing those, when you'd just get stitched as a reward for all your effort?
>>551184707they're not going to clarify shitthey've already proven that they'd rather gaslight and lie about things than admit to doing somethingretarded arrogant swedes
>>551185116Calm down.
>>551173702Can someone explain this to me? Like what these skills are supposed to mean, what's up with the gay guy on the left, and how is Celeste a "woman" when it's clearly a male pretending to be a kween
>>551168710>while peanut cries in the corner and cloakzy masturbates on her toesSwap them and it's more realistic
>>551184739once you realize how easily you can go from it being a 100% guarantee of being shot in the back in the extract to not even worrying about it you will know
>>551184480some level of aggression based matchmaking is fine imo, whatever implementation there is right now just sucks. the mega sweats should get matched against other sweats, the "friendliness floor" is too too low. full PvE chungus lobbies shouldn't exist, there always needs to be a reasonable threat of other players
>>551184739>game gives pvp no incentivesthe incentive is you can get all the spoils of a big ARC kill while risking nothing because you were camping the extract with a free kit
>>551185543>a big ARC killNobody fights those though.>you were camping the extractCan't extract the spoils from my ass pockets.
>>551181204Im gonna give you the mushroom tech.Theres a mushroom spawn at Blue Gate, directly northwest of the raider refuge. Itll be parallel to the bombardier, theres a destroyed house. Right next to it theres a tree that spawns shrooms.Good luck, anon. Im on crossplay off console so the pc chuds can eat shit.
>>551185543If you're planning to farm the big arcs you'd take a hatch key anyway.The pvp player camping extract is more likely to catch someone looking for bullshit like water filters.
The fact the community autistically gamed the system into creating Chungartha is based af
>sliding now costs stamina>rolling after sliding now goes nowhere and is slow as fuck>rolling now disables your ability to shoot for like a whole second>BUT TRIGGER NADES 2 TAPPING AND STITCHER MAGDUMPING IS JUST FINE AND WE LOVE THATNuke sweden off the face of the Earth
>>551186906Oh no the explosives do damage, terrible designshut up you cretin
>>551187080You should kill yourself on that edge pal
>>551186906>STITCHER MAGDUMPINGi see you tossing that in there to pretend this isn't just rat ragewe all know you love it
>>551186906>sliding now costs staminaThanks, I hate it. It was an """advanced""" movement tech, while streamers and other mouthbreathers were stuck running out of stamina or having to jab themselves with adrenalin shots all the time. But the stamina regen during the slide doesn't even cover the cost of the slide, unless you're doing it down a long hill.
>>551187123you didn't even get that rehearsed highschooler tier comeback correct
>>551187323Well I wanted you to do more than cut yourself. I genuinely want you to die
>>551187258If 'movement tech' causes you to move in stupid unnatural ways it should be addressed.Every game isn't rocket league where unintended weirdness has to be kept in the name of 'tech'
>>551187386then say "jump off that edge" or something come on man
>>551187409It's neither stupid and unnatural, or should've been addressed. It was an option that offered better stamina conservation over long distances compared to non-stop sprint, which had higher velocity for shorter sprints or combat. It's nice to have options. Appeal to realism has and continues to hurt games much more than any weirdness possibly could.I seriously hope they don't fucking nerf the ledge grab next.
The FitnessGram™ Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly, but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal. [beep] A single lap should be completed each time you hear this sound. [ding] Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark, get ready, start.

>>551188141Just don't knock him out. He will likely hold space, and his cause of death will be listed as "self".
>>551188141bend over and take it next time like a good little chungus
how do i deal with shredders?i have to leave that fucking map alive
>>551187080It's hilarious how every post you see whining about balance has some insane take like "grenades shouldn't do damage in pvp" attached
personally i think shooting someone in the back should ignore shields and do 5x damagethat will increase skill expressionlike in dark souls you see
Anyone know if I can play on console and link my embark id to keep my progress?>>551186906>Spend thousands of coins worth of mats to kill someoneOnly issue is 2.5x headshot and that you get trigger nades for free.
>>551182356I like how just a few days ago that thread would be downvoted to hell with plebbitors rolling in demanding ppl stop noticing, now everyone just rolls with it. Literal stages of grief. I wonder how long before they accept that grey guns and free kits are broken(I have a video showing that Stitcher is literally better than Tempest and Bobcat if anyone wants to post it up there). >>551184480Even before we noticed the MM it was obvious that the game was too easy due to everyone being friendly and that enabled everyone to complete the whole game in 30 hours tops. The endgame loop is now "PvP until you run out of gear - cheese your way into Chungusland - go naked and loot whatever you need all the way to 280/280", which is an MMO gameplay loop of PvE'ing to fund PvP losses and has no business being in an extraction shooter. >>551188141Your fault for having gear while in Chungusland. Just go naked, if a rat finds its way there you just let it kill you and go again.
>>551175512yeah and the cold snap event skin is pretty much a reskin of cresta mountaineer oneand i still didn't get my refund becuase the support system is ASS
>>551188338impact nades
>>551189468I actually wouldn't have a problem with an MMO-like gameplay loop if the PvE was actually engaging. Once you're lucky enough to get either a Deadline or Wolfpack BP the PvE game is effectively over. You can solo everything without challenge, and there's no point to even trying Matriarchs or Queens.
>>551188607i think your mom shouldn't have been drinking while pregnant
>>551190163>Matriarchs or QueensWhat they should have done is a special team-based mode for big bosses when you either go on a team that kills the boss or the team that tries to kill the boss killers. All loot is shared and distributed at the end of the match. That would have solved 90% problems with queen/matriarch lobbies. Why these sverige retards thought just plopping down the boss into a normal raid would work is beyond me.
>Spend time chipping away on a rocketeer with my trusty ferro>Crashes somewhat far away>Remains stripped clean before I can get thereSisters, chingartha isn't that great after all.
>>551190163I've learnt how to solo pve everything and it's fun but it's not really 'worth it' from a gameplay perspective.The shit I still have to unlock is tied to gathering, not combat. And since Anvil is the go-to for pretty much everything there's no gun progress since you can just buy it on a timer.
>>551176645I've seen a few of these guys in my chung lobbies. Funny thing is we always know he's there because pvp makes obvious noises and he just gets swarmed by 10 people
Chungartha sisters.. I'm almost done collecting all the pokemon
>>551191219There's only 72 obtainable so don't try too hard
I bought the misthorn skin because I want to be a spooky phantom roaming the red lake
>>551191305be honest, you're just a horny boy
>>551191293The ones I'm missing now is Hullcracker (can quest for it), Silencer III, Bobcat, Vita Spray, Anvil Splitter, Kinetic Accelerator. I'm going to assume the last two are missing?
>>551188607I agree. this will be good for the streamers and esports crowd and bring new viewers to the game
>>551191446Silencer III, Kinetic and Splitter can't be obtained. Also I might drop you the spray if I have it, I'll be on in a couple hours
Finally I can sit down and play the game until tomorrow.
playerbase keeps dwindling

Why does ingame voice chat sound so bad? I have a really hard time understanding what people are saying.

>>551185668>Nobody fights those though.They do in chungartha. Turns out when you remove the threat of being stitchered in the back after spending 4 minutes fighting a big arc people are willing to engage with that system. Sorry the game no longer caters to rat cunts who want free loot with zero risk. Go grief other griefers you homosexuals>>551192604I had queue issues before I rigged the MM for chungartha. Now I find matches in like 10 seconds. The playerbase is becoming enlightened.

"KOSchads" being rendered completely powerless is so delicious. You fags brought this upon yourself. If you behaved like decent people, the incentive to escape you wouldn't have existed Enjoy looting freekits for the rest of this game's lifecycle
>>551194772They'll insist it's not about the loot, it's about the love of the game. And then they will bitch about safe pockets and demand their removal.
>>551194772>>551193043You seem to be just seething at nobody. Who is whining in here?
>>551194950no-augments shouldn't have a safepocket though
>saw a clip of a dude on Spaceport throwing a wolfpack at the Matriarch>a Tick is crawling towards him and clamps to his face >Wolfpack targets the Tick instead
>>551195005You're the one seething at nobody because it's nobody that's joining your lobby LOL>>551194950All of their arguments boil down to "I want to shoot normal players in the back and take their items and the game should facilitate this"
I don't really see how me doing quests like prickly pears, mushrooms or even "kill an arc with a snap grenade" helps make games interesting.For the gather ones it leads to me interacting with nobody, extracting (and not caring if I die since they're safe pocketed) and repeating.And for the combat ones I do them within like 2 minutes and then extract because I want the reward. Neither leads to me being an interesting presence in the game, and the game coaches you into doing these.
>>551179570I keep every steel spring I can find for Adv. Mech. Components, also stuff that recycles into springs like those blown-out cushions/pillows, cooling coils etc. Same with sensors for Raider Hatch keys. if you like snaphook grenades, do the same with magnets and stuff that recycles into them, like the torn orange safety vest.

I didn't know a deadline could one shot a bombardier Extremely satisfying to run up and blow one up after a night of getting ganked by weird joker larpers
>>551195809>>551195902>The finals is unpopular due to being a long TTK sweatfest>Arc for some odd reason decided to follow TTK when you would think with shields and weapon rarity TTK would be longer
>>551195809The devs are rats.
>>551195809Congrats on figuring out what we've been saying for over a month now Chungartha is the logical conclusion of all the devs decisions>5 mil grind makes the game loot focused>PVE being easy to rat makes PVE useless, cores dont pay out as much >freekits make pvp rarely worth it >looting under the constant threat of being two tapped by a rat makes looting miserable Chungartha just blanket solves every issue and imbalance with the current meta.
>>551196020On the contrary i believe they did it on purpose, it’s why arc is popular too combined with the social aspect. The finals is unpopular for being a high TTK sweatfest where headshots matter. So low TTK appeals to casuals like call of duty or battlefield. The modern warfare games are more popular with gaming casuals than black ops cods due to slight TTK differences
>>551194328looter survivor 3 is the "best" augment in the game overall, with a utility slot, 3 ass slots, a shitton of weight and capacity, and the ability to use medium shieldsclosely following it is the aug that has a built-in surge shield charger since that one can equip heavy shieldsthe rest are more or less useful depending on what you specifically need, but those two are objectively the "best"
With how much time I put into the game I almost want to feel like an invincible juggernaut like everyone is talking about when you play other extraction shootersBut that would probably make it very PvP centric and boring
>>551195005both the KOShitters and the wholesome epic chungus fags get really uppity and start shadowboxing when you suggest the game isn't well balanced.
>>551196334the game is balanced for PvE obviously
>>551194328Tac 2 because friggers don't have object permanence even if they get the drop on you.
>>551196167Yeah but that's literally removing a huge aspect of the game, and punishing anyone who engages in it. They should just surface whatever karma system they have
>>551196174Problem with low TTK in a third person extraction game is you have to split-second react to people with informational advantages over you while inside a menu. If this could be solved with a medium shield being noticeably better than a light shield, no problem. You would merely stop looting and shoot your freekit attacker. But the medium shield is just as vulnerable to freeniggadry so there's no point. >>551196334Liar. I've been very open about only running chungartha as a response to how shit-tier the balance is. >>551196167>>551196431Delusional
I just want to be able to disengage from fights and run more effectively, what should I have in my kit for that? I have no interest in PvP at all at this point, I lose every single encounter and there is no opportunity for me to practice without being punished for it by loading into nigger cattle lobbies
>keep hearing Arc Probes irl
>>551196167Yeah but chungnigeria doesn't fix any of those issues, you are merely closing your eyes and pretending you don't see them.You're losing half of the game just mindlessly looking at your money going up with a side of vrchat.
>>551196479>punishingThe "punishment" is getting matched with people who also engage with that mechanic. If you're such fans of that mechanic, surely that's a positive right? If you love the PVP, getting grouped with people who love to "PVP" is a benefit, surely. >>551196712I'm losing the half of the game that sucks fucking dick currently. I bypass all the issues with weapon balance and freekit spam. I take that deal 10 out of 10 times. That's a DAMN GOOD DEAL
People say the game is boring PvE but the ARC are dynamic enough that I have a pretty good time. It kind of reminds me of Rain World in that you always feel kind of scrappy. I know the devs are PvP nigs but I really just want more bots to fight
Once again their argument is just "I should have a right to rob you of the items you spent 10 minutes looting using a freekit with zero risk on my part."Or they say something like "You can just use 20k worth of consumables like mines and grenades to protect yourself from a player that is running a kit he got for free"They dont see chungartha just being an end-all solution to this obvious retarded risk imbalance. They see it as a game killing oversight because they're retarded.
>>551196818That's terrible design though, it would be better to just let people opt in to at least a soft grouping of PvP/PvE rather than hide it behind a gay karma mechanic. They have plenty of ways to implement that. Maybe a map condition with a smaller section of the map where you aren't penalized for engaging in PvP. And you should know when you're being penalized too. If you only kill in self defense, it's fucking dumb that you get put in rat lobbies. Show me my fucking renegade/paragon rating if you are matching me based on that
>>551196479>punished top lel
>>551197194The only time PvP is remotely balanced is trios, because you can play around the downed state, maybe duos, but even then it just takes 2 guys to focus 1 guy and the other guy is fucked
It's funny how closely the arguments about this games balance mirror DbDs killer/survivor balance whining
>>551196167>Chungartha is the logical conclusion of all the devs decisionswhat the FUCK is chungartha
>>551196818>That's a DAMN GOOD DEALIt's a shit deal ultimately, I got bored of this garbage almost instantly.
>>551175512>>551175795This does not match the retro futurism vibe of the game. This is some faux-dune shit
>>551197567Some gay Reddit meme
>>551197567
>>551196925I want>a spooky walking bot that can get really tall and scan through the windows of buildings>a bastion-tier boss robot, but indoorsand>robot population distribution to vary by week
>>551197385I mean it is kind of a punishment, the game is way more tolerable at least in solos when most people are focused on PvE, and shooting a guy in the back with a stitcher while he's looting/running towards the metro isn't ethically equal to shooting someone who is running up on you and not responding, or literally shooting you at extract. It doesn't seem like the game treats these things differently, and if it does it should just surface that information so people can actually make a decision about how they want to play and not get rat aids
>>551196925They need to make the arc thirst downed players
>>551195283the devs probably have trouble killing hornets and added that quest because that's how they do it
>>551196925I feel like they are building up to hostile androids
>>551196925The ARCs are by far the most entertaining aspect of the game. With their destructible parts and dynamic AI behavior. HOWEVER the amount of PvE content variety is just not there, it's not enough to make the game a competitor in the co-op PvE genre. So the devs decided to fall back on the lazy player sandbox design of PvPvE and extraction shooter genres, hoping for emergent gameplay to do THEIR job.
>>551196925the bots can be very fun to fight. I enjoy how they sway around and bump into terrain so you can take them out in one shot if the slam into a wall, or be much harder to kill if they're at your eye-level and you can't get a clear shot at the thrusters. makes the fights a lot more engaging that "do X amount of damage" every time
>>551197567I think it's wholesome chungus+siddartha
>>551198083>the broken down androids all around stella start standing up and walking around (now with glowing red eyes ofc) reanimated by ARC software before ARC reverse engineers them and starts deploying squads of ARC androids to other maps could be kino
>>551197194>"You can just use 20k worth of consumables like mines and grenades to protect yourself from a player that is running a kit he got for free"lol you cant seriously think trigger nades are balanced at all? they murk everyone and they are dirt cheap to make. no matter the shield, two hits to down. and thats not the worst part, they are instant. something like the frag grenade requires some time before it goes off but not the trigger nade. they need a serious nerf to their timing. they mog every single accessory outside the jolt mine.
>>551196818it's becoming more and more obvious that these forced posts are cope posts more than anything else
>>551198391That would be so cool, helldivers did some similar slow rollouts of new content would love stuff like that in this game
>>551197194free kits is like the one case in this game of actual 'skill issue'If you are dying to a tier 1 grey weapon and a loadout without good quick items you fucking deserve it.
>>551196818the fact there is incentive to bypass a huge chunk of the game because its a "good deal" is the problem you mong. "chungartha" shouldn't exist, not because being passive is bad or whatever but because it's a symptom of a the games shit balance that needs rectifying
fuck the current kettle. it's basically just another stitcher. they should:>hold M1 to charge each shot, increasing range and damage>max charge increases with rank, eventually hitting Ferro damage levels with Kettle IV>the charging noise is audible to other players, making it unsuitable for backstabbing
>>551198674that's what I thought the tank on it was for but it just looks cool to the swedes I guess
>>551175512>>551175795As an Ombra enjoyer I'm not sure what I think. It's very Tribal flavored which is kind of why I like Ombra, but the headgear is a bit too weird lookingIt would be dope for these reskins if you could mix parts between them
>>551198631You can get one clipped with a stitcher with a medium shield before you have a chance to react, this is complete nonsense
>>551198674Sorry chuddy but Kettle and Stitcher are the best balanced guns in the game, as confirmed by the devs
>>551197968you should be able to scream into the mic to draw ARC attention when you're downed to grief whoever's trying to loot you
>>551199420Just drop a lure I've done that before on Dam at the north elevator and it's funny as fuck if you aggro the rocketeer
>>551199882I do agree however I do not always have a lure on me, plus I can't toss on while knocked down. also screaming is funnier https://youtu.be/ITo-WbpANi0?si=PYMhDM2HYGBNIX-q
>kill a guy>Rattler 2What kind of psycho brings an upgraded gun into a raid..
>>551200327I killed a guy who had a bobcat once and I couldn't stop laughing at him
Where the hell do I reliably find Frequency modulation boxes? I've been to assembly/medical in Stella for over 20 times and found 2 out of 5 needed for the expedition.
>>551200514I just wanted to paly with my shiny new toy...
>on stella>hear someone spawn near me>say hey over voice and warn that I'm in the room next to them and I won't shoot just trying to loot>they walk in>i see them and flash my light at them a few times>they look at me>slowly equip their weapon and aim>i kill them>"dude wtf">another person spawns in>same exact thing happens>"fucking spawn camper">a guy comes to respond to the flares while i'm still healing>toss 2 triggers nades i picked up at him>"fuck you man, you suck" after he gets downedI swear 80% of the players in this game are actually mentally retarded.
The friendliness is honestly a problem. Can't solo farm bastions right now because people are forming impromptu groups and doing them every solo game.
>>551196208They legitimately need to do a small balance pass on weapons and shields - nothing crazy, but it's full fucking retard that you're effectively punished via opportunity cost, for using "better" gear.There is zero reason ever to use anything but grey and green weapons - the TTK stats between them and blues/purples are nearly identical. There's barely any difference between shield types either, especially when looking at the "good" PVP weapons which have high ROF making the "2 to 5 more hits needed to kill" largely irrelevant.It's stupid that there is zero "reason" to use "better" guns and shields in a "looting" game. Yes, new players and poorfags with freekits should be "able" to play the game and not get completely dunked on by players with higher tier equipment. But the playing field should "not" be completely fucking level either, or why the fuck is there any "rarity" difference in the first place?And I'm saying this as someone who regularly is a rat fuck camper, though I don't use freekits since I prefer my Kettle to be level IV.
>>551201128people are just way too comfortable from chungus lobbies and treat being left alone as a right instead of the grace that it is
>>551201249I still don't know how the game shipped with higher tier weapons in shields in the state that they are. I ponder on this every single day as I equip my anvil and stitcher for the 5000th time
>>551195352Your mercy will only name him more brazen
>>551201489I applaud the audacity of the devs. they made and released a game just so they could extract camp in it
>>551201249>>551201489better shields give a significant winning edge in otherwise even fights. What's the issue? Gear shouldn't be able to apologize for bad plays.
>>551201128To be fair, it shouldn't be spawning people on top of each other the way it does. THAT shit is retarded, and I probably would have thought you were spawn camping too.
>>551201825ThisAll design decisions make sense when you realize the devs made this game TO BE FREKITTERS KILLING "VALUABLE" PLAYERS
>>551194772>"KOSchads" being rendered completely powerless is so deliciousexplain, i dont play this much.
>>551201957You can't claim spawn camping if someone calls out friendly to you and then you show signs of aggression and fire first.
>>551198864if you're getting one clipped with a stitcher I they have to be headshotting you every shotIf you're letting them get close enough to do that saying you have "no time to react" is just a fucking lie, you had the time when you walked/let them walk into close range
>>551202079behavior based matchmaking was confirmed by a member of the studio meaning KOS ratfuck niggers largely get queued with other KOS ratfuck niggers instead of joe dad gamer who just wants to pick some mushrooms and shoot a couple of robots after wageslaving all day>>551202330NTA but that argument falls flat since camping is so trivial to do in this game because of the 3rd person camera, and first-shot advantage is massive with TTK so low
>>551195283Most of what you mentioned are literal tutorial quests teaching you about what can be done, retard
>>551202602Yeah and there's like 70 of them and everyone's doing them again you stupid cunt
>>551170780We can only expect so much from Game developers, unable to understand context. just don't use anything valuable until you return to Chungartha>>551173843NTA but I never took clips before, how do I do that?
>>551202669shadowplay if you're an nvidia cuck, otherwise I'm sure amd has an equivalent in their toolkit, or replaybuffer in OBS
>>551202514>behavior based matchmaking was confirmed by a member of the studioIt was an art team member and they said 'player behavior' is a factor.That's often just dev talk for KDA. Extrapolating from that to friendly lobbies is an act of imagination rather than an analysis of matchmaking.
>>551202079MM anecdotally seems to be based on pvp engagement. Since the pvp sucks, pve players just stopped engaging with it. This has filtered kos players into their own lobbies where nobody loots and they just senselessly murder each other. On the other side of the spectrum are chungus lobbies, where pvp is tacitly verboten and players loot in relative quiet and peace.
>>551175512>option for only having the weird hood>no option for just having the mask Another great cosmetic by the retards at Embark.
>>551202927you have to offer shitty cosmetics at first so you can sell slightly improved shit every year and give the impression of always being at peak value
Once I learn how to aim you guys are so fucked
>>551202161What I'm saying is they probably spawned in between your breaths and maybe didn't hear you. You're retarded, so am I, and so are they, but so are the spawns (especially on Stella.) They said they reworked the Stella spawns last patch or so.
I've run 20 raids since resetting, effortless completing multiple quests per run and got half my workshops to level 2. Only used the basic green augment and light shield and Rattler that you start with, and basic shield recharges and bandages. Haven't died once or even encountered a single hostile player. How do people complain about literally anything in this game? It's piss fucking easy. Game feels kinda pointless tbqh.
>boot up game>remember that Trial leaderboards are easier if you dont start them until later in the week>remember that grinding for loot is pointless because gray weapons are superior to many rare weapons>remember that the braindead asinine quests give you barely anything good>remember that i have 60 days to finish expeditionWhy even play at this point lmao
>people complaining about being kicked out of chungartha for defending themselvesSelf defense is illegal in Europe, the Swede doesn't see any issue with this whatsoever. Their minds can't even comprehend self defense being morally distinct from offensive violence.
>>551202825"we do analyze behavior and match accordingly" is the literal quote from the interview videothat's as close to an outright admission you're going to get without legally requiring it to be statedand massive piles of anecdotal evidence that keep growing every day suggest that to be the caseis it 100% hardline? most likely notis it something that IS happening to a large degree? too many people are seeing that for it to be untrue
I almost shit my pants during a raid once. It was basically leaking out by the time the doors to extract closed
>>551203304probably in the same way they gave the security lockers "dynamic spawns"
>>551203421start shootin niggas and remove yourself from chungarthautopia is boring, we white men must always seek constant struggleinvade ratkanda. spend every raid on your toes. take out every ESL who speaks to you.
>>551203436>Why even play at this point lmaoThere's nothing else to play dog.
>>551203509Still hilarious how the retarded playerbase was all in on this, because they thought the security lockers would just show up in random buildings. Not that the spawns were still static and the patch just made it so there was a % whether it spawned or not.God Embark is so fucking retarded.
>>551202330You're thinking of the bobcat. The stitcher is the one you get for free, and is balanced around Basketball American culture.
>>551203436The kicker is that the devs have communicated zero intent to address any of the issues here so the real question is why play at all
>>551200327The first upgrade of a gray gun literally only uses basic mats, so it's usually pretty good investment
>>551202330>one clippedare all of you niggers purposefully getting it wrong?
>report someone for saying nigger when they are dying>they get bannedlol
>>551204648Proof? I've been enjoying my gamer word lately, and I'm tired of pretending I haven't.>you're probably a nigger
Home Alone for christmas this year so after I booby trap my house I'm going to make spiked holiday drinks and start grinding 5 mil so I can finally start playing the game for real
>>551203436>boot up game>look at Trial rewards>Same as last season but even uglier cosmeticsShant bother this time.
I WANT TO DO PAIZURI ON THE MISTHORN'S HEAD
>>551203436>16yr old zoomer still not realizing youre supposed to play games for funNo videogames "have a point". They're a big fat time waste. Either get with the program or go do something else with your life.
Why are spics so overrepresented in the rat population?
>>551205214My guess is that is because Mexican boys get fucking WORKED by their fathers. I've never met a Mexican dude who doesn't remember getting closed fist beaten by their Dad Sociopathic behaviors manifest in people who have been victims/lack control in their lives
>>551203436I havent played since Sunday. Might just call it quits.
>>551205214The kettle reminds them of nail guns and they are just waiting in a corner for the truck to pick them up and take them to home depot. He probably just thought you were siding
>>551205214This game isn't mainstream enough for blacks and PvE is too difficult for spics
>>551181910>>551181701for me it's the rattling case fan noise
>>551188141you would have been deported even if he hit you first, the only thing that matters is that you damaged him
>going to extract>someone called the train>see another guy roll up and shoot the dude off the console>i kill him>"dude you're a fucking nigger rat"Lol wut? I let the other guy safely extract and got a nice Bobcat for my trouble.
>>551206058Maybe he's hoping someone nearby will hear the accusation and run to his defense
>>551205196ok well i'm not having fun and unlike the 90s even if i am poor i can just boot up another game that isn't as riddled with issuesthis onus is on the developer to amend this
>>551206058the proper response to downed whiners will always be>emote wheel>"I can't hear you">"I can't hear you">"I can't hear you"
>>551206265>ok well i'm not having funThen stop playing.
>uhm dude ALL game are pointless bro why do you even care bro just play the game for fun bro stop wanting things to improve bro just stop playing if you arent having FUN like me when i play 1 hour a week
>>551205862Blacks will rat IRL, what's the point of doing it in a videogame
>>551207041I like the state of the game

WHY THE FUCK IS SPAWNING IN AT 17 MINUTES STILL A THINGITS JUST A WASTE OF TIME
I'm surprised I haven't seen some hitpeice on Kotaku about peanut yet, he really skirts the line sometimes with some of the shit he says
>>551207757I always bring a random key in a safe pocket for this exact reason. it's the only way to get a decent haul out of bad matchmaking
I went 150 hours without being extract killed and then literally the first game post-expedition I did some ESL followed me around playing spic music for like 10 minutes before killing me when we went to extract together. I relaxed around a brown and I paid the price.
>>551201489Shields used to be way better in TT2, they changed them last second. The weapon balance was even worse though - I lost a Vulcano to a Ferro in a direct engagement(no ratting).>>551201845> better shields give a significant winning edge in otherwise even fights. What's the issue? Gear shouldn't be able to apologize for bad plays.It's not significant enough. If I'm on a free kit, I can confidently win most fights, most of which I survive by the skin of my nuts and if there's a third party while I'm healing I'm dead. If I'm geared, I can confidently win most fights, most of which I survive with about 50 HP, which still isn't enough to survive a third party engagement. It has nothing to do with my plays and everything with zero risk swarming.>>551191446Hey you still here? I got the spray BP.
>>551194772i love it. im sure the pvpers are loving it now after being shot down in 2 seconds themselves because they probably accidently looted a box
>guy aims gun at me>spin around, kill him>"bro im a freekit why did you shoot me">"you pointed your gun at me, the fuck did you expect me to do?">no responseWhat compels people to be this retarded?
>>551207870I think if any of the attempts to far to cancel him had gained even a little bit of traction then kotaku might have jumped on it but those kinds of "journalists" must be playing it safe these days

>what the FUCK is chungartha
>>551208342Dindu nuffin
>>551208342Yeah I dunno. Whining to your killer is one thing if you don't start it but shit like this is a whole other level. Maybe they're hoping you'll thinm you made a mistake and defib them so they can try to kill you again?
When I am looting nearby someone and we both mutually decide to leave each other alone with no words spoken, I love that shit. Thats the shit I love
>>551208342I don't believe him, but some people are just stupid>shooting bastion from inside a building>guy behind me using the same door as cover for some reason>shoots me in the back of the head>"SORRY SORRY SORRY"like maybe don't be aiming a gun at the enemy while I'm in front of you, pretty basic stuff, but most of these people haven't used a regular pistol or hunting rifle or anything
>>551208927Thats the way in Chungartha. People dont even emote or talk sometimes its that chill. Leave people alone and give them some space and youre good.
You have 5 seconds to post your favorite loot location that isnt orange or red
>>551208927the game is magical when you're in the presence of someone who "gets it" as much as you do that you have can have casual talk and go on your way.the ones who hate this are the asocial psychopaths who dont see the joy in exchanges like this. its a bit like pvp with words instead of guns.
>mistHORN>no horns plsredditards are an enigma
>>551208294I'm here, PhanracK#2590
It's actually crazy how a Toro with a choke is literally nothing but free kills on stella. I didn't even upgrade it. It wasn't even a blue choke either. Got like 18 kills with it before I finally got killed by a 5th party.
>>551209459I dont see myself getting any cosmetics now that I have the 1st Expedition skin

>>551209718the expedition skin looks terrible though
>>551209936Most common skin for now.
>>551209718I get it, it's most exclusiveI really hope they add mix and matching
>>551209936it's an investment. it's going to be like having the black knight skin in fortnite.
>>551210165Me too. I like my other skin because no one else seems to use it, but being able to put the helmet on other skins would be nice
Just realized that I got 50+ dupes, most of which are worhtless, so you're welcome to any of them before I vendor them all. Just write what you want and your emb id, I'll add you.
>>551209329your asshole
>>551209329shit, I can't think of one
Objectively the best looking skin
>>551210165i feel like since i used coins on one i should always use one(cresta) but the fuckin free skins are so serviceable that even the cold snap freebie is pretty much a better reskin with more options+colors that i want my raider coins refunded
>>551209329Red Tower is the obvious choice.
>>551211012the coldsnap one in white/red is so goodit's like they don't want money
>>551209329Santa Maria houses are really fun because they're only initially accessible from the roof, and the loot is great and it's quick to pick clean
>>551209329>>551211014I did like the breach room on the north side of the highway, but more and more people are hitting it upso I guess I'll either go with arbusto toweror, actually nevermind I don't want to say it since it's like my favorite spot
>>551211158yeah the free event ones are just, good enoughif i was going to rebuy one it would be the old school diving suit.everything else is so just, there? nothing sticks out. they would be better off makin them outlandish at this point.
>>551209329Spillway lanes or broken highway, scrapyard is also ok I guess.
>>551210218>>551210030I guarantee the red ryder finals skin is 100x more rare than the trashman skin

>>551211570How long is the finals one available for?
>>551211456they're already outlandishly ugly, just like all of the face optionsi don't know if this is some kind of social commentary by the devs or what
>>551211863they all just blend in together. you can only do the space/nasa punk shit so much where we might as well should have had more cosmetic options to mix and match our different telephones and battery packs.
>>551211639And the game has already (likely) had it's playercount peak. And everyone who gave a shit about the expedition did it.So the only people you're "flexing" on are new players who will only see a trashbag skin, and old players who don't give a fuck about it.>>551211781No idea but nobody wants to do that shit. I see a trashman every single game but I've seen like a total of 2 red ryders
>>551211570Lmao how? The Expedition skin was available one time and one time only. It may not seem rare now but in due time it absolutely will be.

>>551212027It's a good looking skin for sure, but yeah don't want to download and play a game with the only intention of getting a skin for another game
>>551212603But anon, what if you end up really liking The Finals?
>>551212746But anon, what if you end up really liking sucking cock?
>>551212746That's possible. I just don't want to spend a lot of time gaming desu
>>551212924Not feasible
Should I leave chungartha?
>>551212746you mean like have a higher ttk?
>>551212429Yeah, it's a good change, I just don't like relearning my pavlovian sound cues.
>>551213650i think the whole game is chungartha right now

>>551214157I've been to assembly and medical so many times but only get like signal amplifiers or rotary encoders. Is there a secret spot or just have to do it a hundred times to win the rng
Can someone explain this shit? I go to the top of an apartment on buried city. A dude is just randomly standing at the top of the zip line and kills me. Whatever. It happens occasionally. Next game. I get a whole lot of stuff that I need to upgrade, and I go to the extract. A guy kills me in the train. They missed half their shots, so I'm pretty sure that I could've taken both of them; but I'm trying to stay in Chungarthia until I get my next expedition done. What gives? I haven't shot anyone in like 100 games.
Its either>get into bot lobbies where you never face any risk because arc is a meme defeated by a building with a window and nothing really happens except lootingor>get into sweaty trigger nade rat lobbies where every extract is camped by some freekit fag and shooting once means a horde of freekit golem descend upon you like rats to cheese
>>551214421Sadly, niggers without a soul who can't rotate an apple in their mind play this game, and sometimes you're forced to deal with their bullshit.
>>551214421Expedition also wipes your karma, you need to extract with some randoms to re-enter Chungartha
my arc muscle memory is affecting other games. now I keep trying to swap shoulders in fortnite
>>551214383It took me like 30 games between some free loadout killing me, and spawning in a bad loot spot. Just gotta grind.
>>551214383Sounds like bad RNG. Try the little white/yellow toolboxes in assembly. Also the white drawers in the control rooms.
>>551214609It be like that. I wish they would at least say something when they kill me. Weird autistic mutes.>>551214642That makes sense. Guess I'll keep my guard up for a while.
>>551214667 >>551214819Thanks. This is what i've been doing maybe ill try again later
extract trains, inside elevators, shafts etc should be 100% safe zones you cant hurt anyone in but arcs can still hurt you.you also cant hurt anyone from inside them either
>getting "buhh I have nothing" down mic from someone who ran into the same place as me 3 minutes into the gamePeople really have no awareness in this. The containers are visibly looted, if they see that and continue why am I gonna risk someone running around in range of me?
>>551215561why
>>551215652If you're in solo, it's because you get put into zero aggression servers.
>>551215662not them but it'd be good to stop people from cheesing the deck pvp objectives without fighting
How often will PvPtrannies use the excuse "it's just a game) to defend their abhorrent shitty sociopathic behavior? This isn't CoD or Battlefield. Killing people in this game has far larger consequences with lots of wasted time, and it is completely 100% not necessary in basically any scenario

>>551216773get fucked
>>551215953If the devs could somehow make it so only Whites were able to extract, the game would play exactly the same.
>>551215854This is annoying as shit solely because repairing shields is fucking annoying. You are losing 1 circuity/battery or 4 batteries every time some faggot does this to you.
>>551217119damn. the devs should offer players some way to extract safely, perhaps at a costwhat do u think anon? is my idea good?
>>551217287>he plays on baby modeIf you have more than 5 hours in the game and aren't playing exclusively night/ems/bunker then you're just bad.

>>551217119it is so bizarre this game for dad gamers has a more brutal and hardcore extract process than something like tarkov.
>>551217551I'm pretty sure this is an oversight, and it will be patched as soon as the Swedes are back to work making sure no one has fun.
>>551217576The extraction process is yet another hold over from when the game was pve only. Additional ARC would have spawned to check out the alarms and players would have had to fight to stay alive until extraction like in helldivers. It was only slightly adjusted when the game switched to pvp

>>551217727green skill tree should have a keystone perk that gives you 360-degree vision while breaching and extracting
People are often friendly on Snow Maps. Might because we're forced to share confined spaces because of the cold.
>>551218267Or add faster console times to the mobility tree, since the other two trees offer faster looting / breaching.
>>551218249I'm sure you really messed him up with your anvil 1, anon
>>551218243Resetting your loadout is a pain in the ass and you fucking know it
I did the expedition and I haven't played on any maps apart from Dams and Buried City. Feels scary.
>>551217727Theres a lot of dumb shit in this game that is never going to change. They buffed the rattler to be more in line with the stitcher and kettle. That tells you all you need to know. I'll pop in sometimes to explore the cool maps and enjoy the atmosphere, but I don't see myself doing another expedition or grinding anything for that matter.
>>551218417It's still just you interacting with other White people. Niggers don't live in the snow, and didn't know how to behave in it.
>>551218507Whatever narrative you want to paint, bud.
>>551218714I did the Exp and basically only played on Dam and Stella. Didn't have much reason to go to the others. Didnt even max out any benches and only got to level 40.

>>551219417The store makes little sense to me. The premium currency they basically just give to us and the free skins are better than what they sell in the shop. Shop stuff is just a bunch of reskins of each other. I have no idea what they would put in a premium battlepass that would make it worth buying. Hard to see myself ever spending more money on this game.
>>551219879They also allow full customization in the finals yet not here it’s gay
>>551219343Hornets are a consistent skill check and relentless little bastards. Think you found cover from them? Think again, the little goober is flanking you and flushing you out again so his Waspnigga can light you up.

>>551219504why don't you actually do that shit, though? you will 100% never get extract camped again if you just use hatch keys. you'll never get sniped while looting bastions if you use smoke grenades.
>Wasp and HornetThey should make a Bumblebee that is small and easy to kill but gets close to you and stings you with a taser
>>551220730heres an idea, make it harder to rat/extract camp.

At least they buffed the stamina reducing roll skill so now it's worth taking all 5 points in it instead of just 3.I think this is going to be my solo tree and if I ever play trios I'll drop the mobility down and go for turtle crawl.
>>551220950It's already comically easy to extract. City is the only map with campers advantage
>>551220950I cant argue with these gaslighters anymore. Im tired boss. Im just gona let them play their game.
>>551220814We need flying pops and heavy flyers like Rocketeer but with flamethrowers.
So I'm a casual player, can anyone advise on the following? >Beyond workbench upgrades, is there any benefit to killing larger Arc beyond asserting dominance over the machines? >Is there any reason to use Sterilized bandages or Surge shields over Green healing? It seems like green is more cost effective and quicker to use in combat
>>551220950They should have a proximity around the extract where any gunfire raises an alarm that can be heard on the map, and calls in Arc.
>>551221108>be me(nigger)>wait in bush or around a corner and peak corners thanks to our lovely third person shooter mechanic>wait for someone to run and activate the PLEASE COME FUCKIN KILL ME IM ABOUT TO WASTE 10 SECONDS TYPING ON A COMPUTERVS>run out in the open to activate PLEASE COME FUCKIN KILL ME sound alarm to extract>make sure to type like a boomer on the console while im camera locked for 180 degrees
>>551221184can be a good source of money if you can take them down easily, but no, unless the expedition or a future battlepassthingy asks for themand blue bandages seem to be pvp oriented, or used in combination with Vita-Spray or Vita Shot, can do the same thing with green, but blue is faster which matters in pvpI don't pvp, I just bring 10 greens
>>551221184>Is there any reason to use Sterilized bandages or Surge shields over Green healing?My go-to healing stack is Vita Shot + Vita Spray. You can replace either(or both) with a green bandage, but personally I find green bandages harder to procure. Both items that you listed suck balls tho.
>all my friends love this game >Because of my extensive gaming (no life) I was able to download the game's mechanics and strategies faster than my friends >Got a lot of blueprints and have killed most arc (I do not want to fuck with the bosses because of my negative karma servers) >Friends are legit fighting over who gets to team up with me >I'm talked about like strongest person in group chats >People earnestly say thank you to me after runs because I always get them a shit ton of progress It's funny how getting the Wolfpack blueprint your 2nd day of playing can set you up for success.
stop giving me "damage to raider" feats!!!
>>551221184Blue bandages blow, recycle them to craft vita shots or spray. Surger chargers are good for quickly getting full shield when you have a medium or heavy shield (pop green charger first, then blue charger and you'll be max shield in 4 seconds instead of having to wait like 10 seconds for double green charger).
>>551221641What a narcissistic and self indulgent post.
>>551220730NTA but got nigged by some fag that put a jolt mine at a raider hatch before
>>551220264it's not that the bobcat itself is "bad"it's just that stitcher is "almost" as good while being "substantially" cheaper
>>551221079for those that don't know, effortless roll used to only give you 1 extra roll at 3pts and going to 5 didn't even get you an extra. Now you go from 6 rolls until exhausted at 0/5 to 10 rolls at 5/5.
>>551221992It's also a way neater gun aesthetically
>>551221902They love gaslighting people about hatch keys. It takes a little bit before you can even craft them and you need cred to buy them from the trader now. They aren't readily available to a new player.
>>551220950>>551221138why not just use a hatch key though
>>551222264why not just make extract camping harder
The Stitcher is 100% inspired by the Bastard in Metro right?
>hover over refiner>it selects the explosives stationI hate this. Hopefully they let us rearrange shit.
No matter what happened in a raid if I get a survey it's>hated it>pvp experience>combat balanceyou better all be doing the same
What is the most nigger thing you've ever done in ARC raiders?
>>551222332extract camping is made harder by hatch keys. hatch keys offer an easy out for people who experience extraction anxiety. why don't you take advantage of the already existent gameplay mechanics which solve your exact problem? they even buffed hatch extracts last patch.
>>551222703Saw a guy going for my basket and killed him with my level 1 burletta. Yoinked the stitcher 4 off his body and then proceeded to successfully extract from like 10 raids with it.Every other time I've ever killed a person they either>ratted someone else>were about to rat me (coming into my keyroom quietly within the first minute of a match when i'm clearlystill there, aiming at me at extract, etc)>shot me first
>>551222394they were probably both based on the sten gun and similar firearms from real life
>>551222882hatch keys are just an option to avoid the extraction spot all togethernow make the default extraction process harder to camp. i already know why you guys wont like the idea of making this a harder thing to do because you know its piss easy to get kills already on a low ass gay ttk third person shooter.not falling for your games.
My answer to extract campers is to just shoot at a rocketeer on my way to the extract or as I'm waiting for the elevator. Even if they kill me, they now have to deal with a rocketeer as I crawl onto the computer. Most of the time they either die as well and we both get out or I get out on my own while they run around scared shitless.
>>551222703>needed bastion cells for the gear bench upgrade>took one down with 3 other people>snagged all cells for myselfStill feel bad about it but I was so tired and just wanted the upgrade already
>>551223086I do this too. Chungus extracts are typically fine though. Didnt use a single one during my Stella grind.
>>551221992Stitcher is literally better, same headshot TTK but much easier to beam heads
>>551221079Does the first skill in green tree make you any faster if you wear a light shield and do you need to go 5/5 to get the most out of it for medium or is like 3/5 sufficient? Pretty much never play heavy so don't really care about that
>>551209329Business center. It has some nice container spawns and my bro shredder usually patrols the area to keep the freeniggers away. It's also right next to the atrium and it's cafeteria freezer.
>>551223017I'm not playing games, I'm just genuinely fucking confused. I take a hatch key every single match when it's an option. Why don't you? Why do you come here to complain instead of ponying up the minuscule crafting cost?
>>551223565I think it's just 10% per point, so 50% reduction at max which is still kind of shit, but considering movement and weight matters so much in this game I'd say it's still always worth to go 5/5 unless you only run light shield. Heavy shields at 5/5 are still 2% slower than medium shields at 0/5.
>What? You're suggesting I EVER counterplay or apply good positioning / game sense? What the fuck is wrong with? The game should adapt around ME Chungustards are exhausting
>>551208342Some guy called me a rat for killing him one time. After he shot me first. In the back of my head with a ferro. From his hiding spot in the rafters. They're just salty, low iq, and irrational
>>551223686quit mentioning the hatch key workaround for a second. not everyones bringing hatch keyswhy should it be piss easy to be extraction camp?why would it be a bad thing to make it harder?keep moving the goal post for once you dishonest fuckin niggers i swear to god>if you're dying to freekits all the time just uh, bring better shields!
>>551209329Marano train station on buried city if I spawn on the outskirts anywhere near, otherwise Red Tower. And any place with a breachable yellow electrical box, those give guaranteed sensors for Raider Hatch Keys.
>>551222703followed around a group who were doing the matriarch, while taking postshots at it to appear like I'm helping then spamming smoke and triggernades on the corpse when it diedI killed like 7 people, and got all their loot and the arc lootit felt dirty>>551223525grey guns should be limited to 2 mod slots for balance purposesgreens can have 3blues and purples all 4make "better" weapons more flexible rather than outright buffing their base stats examples- stitcher can have muzzle and mag- kellle can have muzzle and foregrip- rattler can have foregrip and stock- ferro can have muzzle and stock
>>551224192le tension meme
>>551224414Make stitcher muzzle and stock. No extended mags for them. It's a Grey weapon. Go upgrade if you want huge magazines. Yes I'm spiteful but it deserves it.
>>551223879>pvp is fine>uh you want to make my pvp experience of being a camping asshole, harder? how about you go back to hell divers
>>551223791Might try something like this if i even end up playing to max level this wipe (i put too many hours in already and it doesnt really feel fresh, might just come back every other season if they do some actual changes). But kinda also wanna go big on the mobility tree next time. Respeccing kinda free too though, think it's like 2000 coins per skill point, so can do like a flexible build for security breaches/solos/squads.
>>551224192>not everyones bringing hatch keysjust craft them mid raidmost key rooms have advanced electronic components
>>551224192>why should it be piss easy to be extraction camp?so that you can be a rat bastard cunt and steal people's shit and generate drama and make people furious, which clearly seems to be to the game's credit considering its rocket successnow explain why you won't just take hatch keys when extraction is clearly a pain point for you. it's a clear and simple solution
>>551224192>not everyone brings hatch keysNTA but...they're fairly easy to craft in-round assuming you're not retarded and took those skillsthey're not super rare drops as lootyou can buy them cheaply from the vendorthey exist, which means their intended purpose is avoiding the "normal" extractssince arc are easy to avoid, the only purpose of avoiding "normal" extracts is to avoid other players around themergo, the clearly intended purpose of raider hatches is countering extract campingthe devs gave you a tool explicitly made to avoid what you're complaining aboutat this point, you are the problem if you don't use the solution they gave youlol at calling it a "workaround" when it's fucking baked into the game - your one and only valid argument against this is that hatches are disabled in certain conditions, but you're actively warned about that when looking at those conditions so...
>>551221108You must be comically bad at even extract camping
>>551224790I've only been extract camped twice in 70 hours of playtime you are likely heavily fucking up somewhere and wants the devs to cater to you rather than adapting
>>551224414Yeah mod slots are all over the place, no idea why kettle is grey when it takes a foregrip and stock over blundetta. I think another thing is that guns should have upgrade levels based on rarity. e.g. grey guns are unupgradeable, greens go to 2, blues up to 3, pinks to 4. I suppose golds can go to like 6 in order to distinguish them more.
You guys complain in circles an awful lot. I feel like I've read the same posts a hundred times
>>551225006the game offers so many ways of doing that and the last thing is the fuckin safe haven fish in a barrel areayou go to tie your shoes and are animation locked with a full screen blinding you to insert shoe laces. its way too easy to be a fuckin cunt with a ttk this low. you guys dont really want pvp you just want to grief.so yeah i want extraction camping to be harder. like the most dishonest niggas coming out to make that not a thing and it's very telling.
>>551225240I recently acquired my first gold gun, and had to doubletake when I realized that it not only doesn't mave and mod slots, it also doesn't upgrade
>>551225353Oh wtf. I'm a pvpfag so I never held a gold gun in my hands. Honestly it makes sense as gold guns are hard enough to make already, but they should be a lot more powerful than they are now.

Stock only.attachment rarity should follow the weapon rarity. Gray guns get gray shit, green gets green and so on And of course a blue or purple weapon can still equip a gray mag.
>>551221079>literally planning on doing the EXACT SAME skill tree setupThis is not good in terms of variety.>>551221821>blue chargersThat's an extra utility slot that can be fitted with team support items or adrenaline. If I plan on double charging I'm using defender augment for a free charge every 2 minutes.
>>551225326If youre extracting at night or ems you basically just have to hope than no one shoots or throws grenades at you while youre completely defenseless on the console
>>551226490>Attachments should only be able to equip to guns of equal or greater rarityThis is a fantastic idea. It would even fix the bobcat issue, and many more balance issues without having to tweak the actual weapon numbers. It also incentivizes crafting and making weapon kits. I fucking love this idea.
Why not add an elevator quick access key? Make it a green craftable equivalent to the hatch key that circumvents the console tapping and immediately starts closing the elevator.>you still make that loud noise>you still need to wait for the elevator>you don't NEED to use this key>finding one would feel good>would help mitigate a very common problem in the game, having players betray or grief you as you try to extract with them>would make N/EMS maps less susceptible to extract camping
>everyone cumming over the misthorn outfityou guys have worse taste than the devs, thats like the worst outfit they released so far
>all these suggested work arounds for fixing a problem that's core issue is shitty people Incredible
>>551227373What do you propose? We ban people for having a different playstyle?
>>551227359I think it's fine but I wish it would let you use the mask without the horns attached.
>>551227373>mechanics don't influence behaviourGo back to your headquarters, swedenigger
They should add queen/matriarch to buried city because it would so fucking funny

>use a wolfpack to take down a rocketeer>dude runs up near me>use the "no" voiceline>he starts looting>I down him>"MAN WHY YOU SHOOT ME MAN"May the gods of chungartha have mercy on me. Surely it should be common sense by now to not loot something you didn't assist in killing if someone else is already looting it?
Should I bring an equalizer or jupiter against the queen? I feel like using one of these guns, I've never even fucking seen them before ingame
I thought you guys were shitting on that Misthorn set, no?
Honest to God I PvPed and ratted people far less before I started browsing this general, knowing people get this delusional and angry over dying makes me wanna do it more
>>551227894people here think its amazing, i don't get it
>>551228068Well it's definitely unique
>>551227925enjoy the shadow realm
>>551227849Like a Chungist monk and gracing someone with peace
>>551224414lol stuff like that is what gets people to stop playing too. People wonder why in tarkov they're stuck in 10m queue times only to load in with cheaters that farm in-game loot fo a living. It probably was just not you but that part of the problems with the game and others did it to them too.
>>551228171It isn't actually real to the extent people claim, I PvPed before wipe a lot then just did a handful of safe extracts and now most people I encounter are friendly again.
How long until they add Raider Coins as a rare lootable item? Helldivers 2 let's you farm Super Credits and the Swedes still have people buying the Warbonds outright instead
>>551228367its already really easy to get them so I doubt it
>>551228367no need, as long as free decks continue to have them as rewards, and they keep dripfeeding those every so often>>551228262to be fair it was like my 4th round ever and I'd done nothing but group queue with friends before that which taught me bad mannershaven't been that niggery since, and I'm deep in chungus queue now which feelsgoodman

>get KoS'd in the back by a literal nigger>ask what his problem is>when he comes up to knock me out I say "oh, because you look like that"Can't thing of a better way to call a nigger a nigger without getting banned
>>551228262I'm the only one left I know who still plays, everyone else I know has stopped.
>>551229617Honestly, talking to people like that isn't worth it. Unless there's people nearby where you can maybe get saved by one of them, just stay quiet and let him knock you out.
>see leaper>stack 3 trigger nades on it>spam detonate just as it leaps at meFastest walk of shame back to Speranza speedrun
>>551229725>just stay quiet and let him knock you out....why?

Have they done something to leapers?because I've been seeing them doing the self destruct sequence more often even when not trapped
>>551231508They've always had that AoE attack if someone gets too close, but it doesn't kill them unless they're on fire from being near-dead
>>551231812Nono I mean the actual self destruct where they start blaring an alarm and glow like the queens when they're about to explode.They usually do it when they get stuck in tiny spaces but now I see them killing themselves in the open when they are healthy
>>551229617Is this guy a pvp player falseflagging or are they just that stupid?Saying "guy" because the "nigger" in every post might as well be a tripcode
>>551229995Pussies spreading pussy behavior, fuck that retard
Someone said he was friendly on voice and then I foolishly believed this and got shot in the back.From now on I am killing every player I see.
I'm never trying to do queen on dam battlegrounds alone again, fucking dogshit map
>wolfpack time
>>551232348I said literal nigger because I heard some loud ass sheboon over his open mic in the background, and of course his character was black with dreads

>>551233960alright you go farm those while i spam free kits and wait at the alarming deathbox known as an extraction point

>>551234159NTA but I'm guessing it's motion blur
>>551234159On consoles there's a bug where motion blur turns itself back on without your consent. I fucking hate it
>>551234159some people unironically play with motion blur
>>551229617just take it on the chin, man. some people are just default hostile, that's what they play the game for. they're basically NPC enemies. think of them more like wild animals, or tornadoes. nobody gets angry at a tornado for doing damage.
>>551234585>>551234726>>551234881Gross. I forgot it was that bad. I've had motion blur off for 12 years.

I've been getting nothing but weapon mod blueprints. One after the other, 6 times now. What's up with that? They're good attachments but come on.
>>551236375Imagine being a brown frogposter making up lazy fictional scenarios.
>>551236507>PvE shitter is so bad at the game simply killing another player seems like a fantasy scenario to himtimmy..
>>551236375And if he were younger he'd be saying some even more pathetic shit like everyone else who cries after being downed.All your posts are terrible.
I've been doing the Blue gate naked/low investment blueprint run and I have to say it is so effective that it legitimately pisses me off. I was able to get 3 MK3 augments my first 3 runs and that is not fucking good. They need to seriously tweak the values on what can drop a blueprint. I feel like augments or high/mid tier blueprints should be almost exclusive to stronger arc.
>>551236727simmer down unc
Why do people do naked runs when looting augments are so cheap
>>551237221it's quicker to just requeue without crafting anything
>>551237221I'm pretty sure they mean naked as in nothing except aug, light shield, adrenaline
Got separated from my trio in Buried City and landed right in the middle of an enemy trio. Told them I was there to kill the Bastion and they let me go. Is this Chungartha? I had 2 trio rounds right before that where we didn't shoot a single person and did PvE.
>>551237352No I did naked runs to find literally single items like blueprints to stuff into the pocket and surrender right there on the spot. I was at my wits end for humidifiers and just had to spam that for buried city nightraids.
>>551237065blueprints should've remained extremely rare but reset-immune

NA is riddled with aimbotters, it's something like 1 in 3 lobbies right now. It's not even centralized around high loot modes. Most of it is retards being "boosted" through quests.
>>551235457if you've got a bobcat or tempest to trade, I've got an extra surv3also got a few hundred seeds and looking for bobcat >>551236460certain types of blueprints drop in certain tagged areas anon, if you've only been looting housing areas for example, swithc to industrial or security
>>551237352Yes but regardless you can still bring one, if anything you'd prefer an augment over even bringing that minimal shit>>551237350You can just craft in advance though, you're unlikely to even die with it unless you're in KoS nigger lobbies. 6k or some mats for 2 safe pockets and extra inventory space if you feel like greeding a bit seems worth
>>551237065nah, fuck youthe only way they'll be able to make "many" people even consider wiping is if it doesn't take hundreds of fucking hours to get all their blueprints back, since blueprints make teh game super comfy

>>551238809kek!
>>551238809I was having a moment and this shit happened to me 3 times back to back, made me stop playing the game for a week
>>551237352retards think they're gaming the system since you get a rectal slot for some reason when nakedthis is in fact dumb because you could be just as naked with a cheap ass aug if you want and have a better chance of not wasting your time if you happen to find more than one blueprint or need to kill some balls

So, was that aggression based match making thing actually real?
>>551238539I know your kind can't read (patch notes,) but the matriarch no longer drops the BP. Now tell me you're just in it for the schadenfreude, and then cry when people call you a psycho. I'll just call you by your first name, nigger.
>>551236375This really happened I was there clapping in the background
>>551241965i haven't seen a player shoot another player once today
>>551241965From my experience, yes>Play solo>Everyone and even geared up trios don't shoot me>Play with a friend who's trigger happy>Whole lobby is basically a KoS fest
Which of the big arcs are worth fighting for money?
>>551241965I haven't noticed one. I purchased the game twice and one I play significantly more chill than the other. Zero difference in the quality of matches between them.What I did notice seemed to have an effect is time of day, region, and whether crossplay was on or not. The game becomes significantly more killy after school hours.
>>551238809I hope you weren't kitted friend. Take the nood pill.
>>551242464Bastions and Bombardiers yield the most purple parts

stash and workshop maxed again
>>551243681Tips on killing minibosses post wipe? Are you cheesing them with explosives? I didn't even max my workbenches before so my interaction with minibosses is minimal
>>551243681That's the max stash size?
>>551244049280+12 extra for doing the expedition
>>551244049If you did the expedition (wipe) yes. If not its 280
>>551243681sell literally everything. it's incredibly liberating
>>551244371NTA but I will after I reach the final expedition phase
>>551244179>>551244181Is that 12 extra from expeditions a permanent bonus that I missed out on?I bought the game a day before the expedition window ended I believe so I'm not super familiar with everything yet
>>551244371>make 10 augs>make 10 shields>make 10 guns with mods>make 10 sets of heals/grenades>sell everything elsethis is the way
>>551244498Yes it's permanent also the 5 skill points
From my experience solo>Buried city, stella, damChungusland>Buried city night, spaceport, blue gateNiggerland
>>551208342melanin
>>551244603spaceport is incredibly friendly in my experienceto the point that I can't farm any of the fucking minibosses because people are doing them in groups of 5
>>551244498Yeah.Permanent Unlocks: The Patchwork Raider outfit Scrappy Janitor Cap Expeditions Indicator icon Skill points (depending on Stash value) +12 Stash spaceTemporary Buffs: 10% repair buff 5% xp boost 6% more materials from ScrappyIt's nothing too crazy to get fomoed about though
>>551244910I'm still upset the outfit looks somehow worse than the tutorial one
so when is this raider deck supposed to be coming out? i'm capped on credits and it's so dumb that it didn't release with the wipe
>>551245384Friday I think?
>>551245510fuckin gay
>>551244982I'm just using macrame white mostly. Cba to really even play the game after putting in too many hours in the first season, it gets somewhat stale fast at this point. Maybe i'll come back for more another season or whenever they give us new maps and big changes in general
>>551238031I've never emoted near random raiders in trios. call it nofun, but I don't trust people in 3s
>>551245384just spend them on random stuff from the security trader every time you cap out
>night raid on dam>spawn near houses>loot for a bit>find 4 blueprints>nearest exit is water control>team up with some other random near it>reach the elevator and call it down>nearby leaper gets aggro'd>he knocks both of us down>some nigger in the distance sees this>heads straight towards the lift>leaper ignores him completely even though this fucker JUST shot at it>of course he has to knock ME down firstHow to these fuckers always know who to target? Is it cheats? Happened to me multiple times, it's like these cunts already know what's in my backpack
>go look for shrooms on Spaceport>talk to a guy in the trench>he doesn't say anything>drops me a trigger nade BPSaved me the trouble of redoing those shitty quests. Too bad some guy just started shooting me on sight afterwards, but I simply stood still (had nothing on me anyway) and he stopped. Hope he's enjoying his KoS lobbies now, while I keep being comfy in Chungartha.
>>551245570I'm really excited for the toxic swamp maps. Need more environmental hazards
I'm actually more wary of people saying "friendly friendly!" into their mics than people who don't use voice chat Like bro just talk like a normal person
>>551240835and if you're in a fresh area and find a blueprint you often get more than one along with other shit worth the pittance a second butt slot costsbut feel free to attempt minmaxing like a moron and spend seven minutes running around to grab a single item, have fun
>>551243936shoot them until they die
>>551246610people say odd things in this game.Like, I'm walking around and this guy runs up to me asking me to wait. Then says "hey, where's that other guy?" I'm like.. can't help ya man. I'm pretty sure he didn't think I was the guy. He literally just wanted to stop me and ask if I knew where this other person was. The fuck
>>551244885Spaceport is rat heaven every single time for me. Actually I'm not sure they're even ratting so much as just griefing because there's no way the 20 niggers sniping from the walls with ospreys are actually reaching the players they kill.It seems like it'd be a really fun map otherwise.
>>551244570I get fomo on the rooster since I'd be missing out on mats if I don't upgrade.
>>551237771>You can just craft in advance thoughnobody does this
>>551244603literally opposite
>>551247148I do because the materials are better condensed into shit I'm going to use soon anyway.And 25 weapon mods take up 0 slots when they're on the guns already.
Can't wait to spend my 3k creds on friday.
>>551246303Bravo Miyazaki
>bring zipline to spaceport hidden bunker to do the north tower>turns out that was the last one>every faggot on the server was waiting outside the bunker>by the time I run down there it's been stripped completelyreal fucking neat game mode embark, thanks for making it a complete waste of time unless you're a nigger
The weapon variety in this game is legit so fucking bad. They really need to add more weapons.
>>551248718I can buy 3 anvils a day and it's basically as good as it gets for doing pve including stuff like bastions economically
new trials reward skin looks neat
>>551246060>Is it cheats?are you talking about the leaper or the player? free kits ignore ARCs because they don't give a shit if they die. ARCs don't switch aggro like MMO monsters because they're robots programmed to kill you and don't care that they're being shot at (which is cool and I hope it doesn't change) unless they've lost sight of you and have a better confirmable targetalso lol at being killed by a harmless leaper
>felt like playin>go and jerk off instead>dont feel like playinill get to it later. i wanna chill with some alchemy factory
>>551248718I think it's fine, but it really needs more reasons to use what's there. Like why would I bring a shotgun when it's kinda useless against ARCs and there are plenty of guns that are lighter and work for both players and ARCs? Even setting aside the fact that the stitcher should be purple.Stuff like alternative ammo types could help this, so they're kind of painted into a corner with the light/medium/heavy simplification. Maybe underbarrel attachments or more sci-fi mod shit would help.
>>551249101Yeah I actually like it shame you can't wear the goggles
>>551249101Looks like shit. Looks even worse because a brown on his shitty PC captured the screenshot with the lowest settings.
>hmmm nobody is playing on our shitty KOS map>ooooo i know lets make the expedition require mats that only come from that shitty KOS map
>>551249807calm down lol

All I want to do is snipe people. Is the ferro my best bet if I have no idea how to unlock the ospreyOr renegade?
>>551250386>kos map
>>551251747Ferro is your best bet until you get a renegade blueprint. Don't even bother with Osprey it's dogshit.
Do you think Elon Musk plays Arc Raiders?
>>551251747best option is to go to your local hardware store and pick up their largest thing of rat poison, and eat it
>>551229617Always shoot them when you see one. Never relax.
>>551252650I cant enter hardware stores it's not long range enough for a sniper chad to operate in>>551252585I just buy renegades every day i have a stockpile now
its nut time niggers
>>551227889Equalizer. Just know you'll have retards gunning for you, even in Chungartha.
>>551252618I think he probably plays someone to do it for him while he chooses to jerk of to his own pictures cause he's a complete retard
I defib'd a guy and then he shot me in the backready to shout a slur at him
>>551254205i love it when retards learn the hard way. unfortunately, you are too stupid to be allowed into chungartha
>>551249807why does this thread have so much of the sort of racism you only see from teenage slavs?You don't need to impress anyone here by including it in every post, we all know you're a big boy
>>551166752What's up with faggots in the Low Aggression lobbies just HELPING themselves to your bastion/Rocketeer kills without even asking?In normal lobbies you get killed for that shit.
>>551254668Imagine being brown LOLSorry for you bro
>>551254668
Fug I forgot Lure grenade BP was a quest reward. Shit is mandatory.
>>551254924i dunno man i think it's massively preferable to looting it yourself then getting immediately rattedscaring them off with a warning shot or just outright killing them for it is a much more advantageous position to be in so I'm not complaining
Wow. Embark and Nexon have done it again.These companies really know how to market and make fun games. And then drive them into the ground. Just like the Last Descendant and The Finals, they have made a potentially great, fun game into a grindy, rng unfun F you to gamers. I guess I've finally learned my lesson. Enjoy my $40, Embark. It took me 3 times, but I've learned my lesson. For anybody commenting, it's just a matter of time before it hits you, too.
I haven't been able to survive the cold snap bc of pvpI havent been able to successfully do a cold snap raid once bc of pvp and I never go out of my way to shoot people, wth is going on
>>551246303There's already a toxic swamp it's called stella montis after being banished from chungartha
>>551255470>scaring them off with a warning shot or just outright killing them for it is a much more advantageous position to be in so I'm not complainingBut if you start killing them then you'll get placed into the ratkanda servers
I Wish Pinging Items Said "Do You Want [this thing]?" rather than "I have [this thing]" Cause I feel like people think I'm a fuckin idiot for trying to show off my collection of toasters, and cooling coils, and rusty medical kits and all the rest of the stuff you people need to progress."HEY RAIDER! I HAVE A VERY COMFORTABLE PILLOW!""That's great guy. I'm gonna.... go now...."Fuck it, I'll start dropping crap off at extract.
>>551256056I wish tripfags took their own lives en masse.
>>551255995maybe. briefly. it's not something to be afraid of.one kill won't take you all the way to sweatsville anyway.but that fear is also why you can probably scare them off with a warning shot and they won't fight back anyway. at least that's my experience, I've never had to actually kill them.
im assuming the tripnigger posting is someone copying usernames and posts directly from reddit, very bizarre
I can't find any fucking candleholders bros I'm gonna lose my fucking mind
>Newfags that don't know about Chungartha ITTApollo is a direct descendant of Yakub, ask him for entry.
>>551257965I'm encountering a lot of newfags ingame, have to control my temper when they shoot me and yell that I'm not shooting back and friendly
>>551257965To all the newfags in this thread, there is likely (light) matchmaking dedicated to matching you with other players of similar aggression, this is a bit exaggerated by most people here as they play mainly solo which is mostly friendly by default. You can kill all you want, but if you want to start doing safe loot runs again simply do a handful or so of freekit or light gear fast runs and don't damage other players, after a bit of that you'll be back in the "safest" matches. Spoonfeeding because the chungartha faggots are cringey btwSurveys also supposedly affect this but that is not proven, regardless probably worth saying you didn't like the PvP if the game asks you.
>>551257575It's so weird though that these faggots do this. I tried to kill the guy but he got away. They act like it's such a normal thing to do. The faggot was looting my bastion before I could get to it and I'm the one who did 100% of the damage to it. I guess they just watch you kill things then try to run and loot without fear of death?
>>551258770Shut the fuck up you retard.
>>551259054Seethe nigger you aren't special for abusing the matchmaking and this information should be accessible for everyone :^)
>>551251747>I just want to shoot people>I don't have anything nicesocioeconomic factors?
>>551176346magic benevolent arc cock that lays 300 raw materials every 10 minutes or soit's quite beautiful, actually
>>551258903it's not weird. they need it for workbench upgrades and it's worth the risk to quickly shove a part or two in their ass, worst case scenario. they can't know if you'd share if they helped, and if they just watch you might die and they can finish it off. or they might just not be kitted out for big ARCs so it's purely opportunistic. not hard to explain; I don't know why you think people would be polite about looting considering pvp is an option even if you think you're in a chungus lobby
>>551258770Kill yourself
>Going to the right areas to selectively loot the stuff I need for quests and events>Still hard to find shit>Every time someone is there I ask if they have what I need>They always respond with "Yeah I actually just found some here you go" or "Add me and ill drop some for you next game" >Feels like the game is on easy modeAre Chungarthans actually like this or are they just afraid I will kill them for the items I need?
>>551259270I'm adding tension to your raids by shooting you in the head, please be grateful
Why is my dancing emote sometimes greyed-out and unusable?
>>551260762you hit the homo cap
>>551260118i've dropped candleberries and lemons I picked up that I no longer needed when someone has asked me, not been afraid of them shooting me I just don't need it
>>551260762The game works on a second delay for everything from hitboxes to hit register. It takes a moment to recognize you arent moving.
>>551255368Anon, your cloak?
>>551260762Hidden global cooldown. Console players on wi-fi nearby make it worse, or people spamming turbo button macros in your server with the kettle.
Anyone have a survivor bp that wants to trade for anything here?

Anyone connect their stuff to link their embark IDs to multiple platforms? If I bought stuff on steam would it work on epic or a console version?
>pops literally dodge bullets nowThese swedes couldn't make mechanically interesting enemies to save their lives.
>spawn in>shot in the back by stitcher>spawn in>shot in the back by stitcher
>>551264853Only 8 more times and you get to shoot up a chungus lobby! At least according to your fellow redditors.
>>551264978I had 19 hours of playtime this week with 0 people shooting me until today. Twice in a row I spawn, walk for 10 seconds and get shot in the back. The niggers are out I guess.
>>551265687according to our reddit warriors that is impossible, surely you must be damaging other players?
>>551266013I haven't fired my gun at another player since I got the game. I literally do not want to fight.
>>551266095You're lying, the aggression based matchmaking has been confirmed. You are not worthy of chungartha.
>>551259503>it's not weirdIt is weird nigger. It's rude, inconsiderate, and extremely disrespectful. You must be from a 3rd world country.
>get a few dam keys and a spaceport key>staff room of dam nets me a looter 3 blueprint>have to fish for a fresh lobby for the surveillance room, end up having to ditch at least one that has a dude outside begging for a key at the door>have to run spaceport almost a dozen times to get a lobby that the shipping warehouse isn't looted>my key gets me a burletta and a arpeggioSasuga... Arc-chan...
>>551251747Ferro is probably the best for sniping. Hits really hard and it seems to be a tad bit more accurate than the Anvil, which hits just as hard but faster.Renegade is good too. Much faster than ferro, and more accurate than the anvil, but doesn't punch as hard as either.
>>551263860stupid pols shouls have stayed under WB
>>551263087learn that lightweight stock anon, it's the best in the game for ferro, renegade, and ospreyyou should also learn all of the weapon parts just so you don't have to fuck around in the vendor whenver you want to build or upgrade anything >>551265687kids are out of school for hte holiday as of today
>>551268075survivor augment is my priority right now, I have no use for complex gun parts and I don't regularly use the guns you listed. that's why I want to trade them lol
Can someone please explain to me why my goddamn raider's feet suddenly turn into lead and can't dodge roll to save his fucking life when lightning is about to strike me?
Ok the harvest plants trial feels weirdly difficult. Which map has the most? I thought I hit a lot of mullein and candleberries on spaceport but I only got 3900 lol
>Blue Gate: Locked gateWhat the fuck.
>>551266541alright well I guess if you're this retarded it explains why you keep getting surprised by extremely predictable behaviour and can't figure out how to adapt to it yourself
>>551269334only place to farm bobcat BP iircor was that vulcano?
Sneaking parts from someone else's kill is dishonorable and frankly very Indian
>>551268479Buried city. Hit the galleria first and then the park. I believe the very bottom floor of space travel or research also has a few. Galleria and park are the best though.
If the person who killed me has;><lvl 20-30 steam account >Fake ttv with a single clip and <1k followers>Serious history of playing rust>7591832579 and his 100 bot brothers commenting "i love u add me" on his profile>Anything that looks like a smurf steam account with korean of japanese branding/naming (actually chinks lol)>5 friends, half of them are chinks and the other half are portugese or some shit>Any vac ban historyI am immediately discarding any blame on myself and my teammates for the outcome of the fights, and you should too.These faggots are easy to spot.
>>551270143Truth. Your skin has to be the color of shit to genuinely believe you can sit there and loot materials from someone's hard earned kill and get away with it.
>>551253457I made two of them and lost two of them to a rocketeer that happened to be near the queen, fucking pieces of shit, the dam is such an awful place to fight the queen too, there's just nothing to use as cover, so far nobody shot me for it though, I can very much see it happening however, its probably a matter whether or not there's a subhuman nearby
>>5512706247k hour rust player herethis is my first extraction shooter, i didn't realize so many gay little loser fags who couldn't make it in rust played this genrethey cry so much when you kill them
>professional autist here>i just can't there aren't many others like me (a genuine subhuman that shouldn't be alive)
>>551270624Been playing vindictively since 2000 on fps games. Shooting is the least interesting aspect of any game for me, partaking in tournaments and lots of lan parties its lost now. Nobody cares how good one is at a video game but people will just become rotten for a fleeting moment of a victory.This game's good but still needs more of everything, except the bloodthirsty content creators turning everything sour in the lobby for someone to pay attention to them.SEA gaining access to NA internet en masse just permanently screwed up online gaming forever.
>>551270609It seems to me that the apricot trees don't count, so what plants am I hitting in the park?
>>551271841Mullein. It's everywhere in the grassy areas of the park, under trees, etc.
>>551271479by creating chungartha, reddit is showing the subhumans of south asia how to behave like white peoplethey're literally carrying the white man's burden
kill me
>>551272509That was one of the easier ones. You only need to find 4.
>>551272695>only
wow found green mag attachment for light weapons and apheleon in stella. good expedition run so far.
>>551272923I found 5 first try (spaceport). Just listen for the noise.
>>551252529Kos niggers really don't want to believe in karma or chugartha
I think I'm just going to play trios, I don't see the point in farming solo in chungartha any more
It's not "Chungartha" to me if some brownoid can walk up and loot my bombardier
>>551268292Because you're in a looting menu when the lightning strikes. Even the weather animation snipes you in this game.
Alright guys I decided to watch some youtuber's video testing out every single skill point and reading all the comments and I've decided this will be my skill tree.Maxed downed health + crawl speed are non-negotiable because the survivor's augment is a must for me. I had to choose between vigorous vaulter and loaded arms the former is more appealing IMO. Next wipe I'll be able to snag both.https://arctracker.io/skill-tree?skilldata=eJxjZmQFQgYGVgYwYGUFshhBPEYwlwUoCQSsjEysQFUABycAUg
>>551248651bunker itself is hardly worth lootingonly reason to open it was for trials
>>551274007the alternative is them waiting for you to go loot it then trigger nading you
>>551211639>expeditions will still be a thing throughout the games run cycle. Embark will just reward the patchwork skin for first time expedition players rendering the literal fomo-garbage uselessThe G suit is the only one that matters because no one thought this game would amount to anything hence no one preordered it
>>551274885>not taking the synergy between free roll on shieldbreak and free sprint after sprint roll>not taking "your guns weigh half as much"dumb
>>551275851>>not taking the synergy between free roll on shieldbreak and free sprint after sprint rollFair enough, I had an extra point to put somewhere>>>not taking "your guns weigh half as much"I'm rarely over-encumbered, but I know your speed slows down the more you're carrying. I usually rock a venator, anvil, or stitcher and all of those are 5kg. Like I said, I plan on getting it after more points from next wipe.
