The LAST Arc Raiders thread...
>My dad genuinely heems the shit out of me>Ask him why>He tells me it's because he's an alcoholic and I made mom leave>Grow up and become a PvPer and gloat about it while seething over chungarthaLMAO
>>552590081By not shooting first you are guaranteeing that you die first. That's the entire problem. Shields and health do not provide enough of a "defense" to getting shot first. Even if you try to roll to cover, even if you try to shoot back, even if you try to do so many things, it doesn't really matter because shooting first and killing first is the best option no matter your position, gun, or anything. If there is even a 1% chance they will kill you, your best option is shooting to kill first.I've had plenty of fun games full of friendlies that don't shoot, I have no problems, etc. But I've had even more games where some faggot shoots me first and "wins" because you factually can not out DPS anyone in the game when your shield is broken first.
the urge to take a fully kitted suppressed bobcat 4 and 800 light ammo into chungartha stella montis grows
>>552593439The problem is people become too comfortable with other raiders, I really don't see it as a downside that someone has 20 friendly lobbies then gets ratted once and dies instantly.
>>552593901this, I just queue up again after remaking my kit, not like I have a chance when someone magdumps me in the back
>>552590420You do more than just a single snitch dumbass>waiting on locked gate for the gate to open>man comes up and starts fighting the bombadier>shoot near a snitch, 2 hornets, and a rocketeer with my silenced osprey>guy died in like 6 seconds>wait a little for the arc to leave>finish the bombadier with a single trigger nade>loot everything and leave
>>552593901ThisThese people run past each other like they aren't even there. Its extraordinary.Players are taking peaceful lobbies for granted and are failing to realize that their survival is solely their own responsibility.
>>552594258SO IT WAS YOU NIGGER AAAAA CHARGING MY CAREBEAR ENERGY
Damn the amount of shitters here is abysmal, just say you suck at the game instead of complaining about basic pvp concepts as first shot advantage. Claiming movement, gun use or positioning cant turn the fight in your favor is clown shit. Tell me you havent killed a trio or duo with your shields down with no backup without telling me ty
>>552594348Yeah it's actually insane to me that people will do dozens of safe runs in a row just running around without their gun even out then hop on here and seethe because they died once, even if that one time you happened to have an expensive kit you should still be up by a large amount from all the time in chungartha.
>>552594628Positioning, game sense, etc isn't even a thought in their head because they are in baby lobbies the vast majority of the time. If their choice is to be peaceful that is fine, but they shouldn't expect the devs to cater to then because they lack basic game knowledge from their friendly lobbies. Just very entitled behavior, I rarely ever get ratted when I'm in aggressive lobbies because I'm actually playing like other players could be a threat. I will say though sound design in this game can be kind of shit, it can be hard to pinpoint where players are at times but maybe that's because my headphones are shit, anyone else experiencing this? Especially when it comes to footsteps in buildings with multiple floors.
>>552594628>complaining about basic pvp concepts as first shot advantageIs it me that doesn't understand or you? I fully admit yeah I suck shit, I'm not saying I don't. But I am saying that it's too easy even for low skill players (or no skill) to shoot first and win. Guns like kettle (which is factually the best right now because it has macro "cheat" bullshit) and stitcher are insanely good and provide insanely good value for what they are. Even if you took someone who had no skill at all and gave them a stitcher 1 with a green mag, they can and will kill nearly anyone in the game. That's ridiculous
>>552594628I do say I suck at the game all the time and that's why I like pve
>>552595003Gun balance is a different topic altogether. The other player is "better" than you in the sense they are positioning themselves better and playing around actually PvPing, you are likely not. Even if greys got nerfed you'd still likely be losing, just mildly slower.
If they shoot first and you wanna stay in friendly lobbies just run. I can cockroach out lots of times and throw smokes and shit and just disappear. Similar to the arc you can hide and make zero noise and be tough to find. Or just talk to them, sometimes they will chill the fuck out. I walk around Stella playing the recorder and killing the bastion after getting a couple of security breaches and usually people join in and it’s chill.
>>552594628Nobody gives a fuck about how good you are at a video game. Cheating bugs and mongoloids have ruined any sense of fair play or competitiveness and the spirit of good sport.Odds are you're cheating too and need non-cheaters added to the pool to loot from because running into other ones is annoying for you to fight against but you can't even report because its a self delete.The best time in gaming was in the 2000s at internet cafes and before the SEA flood.
>>552595816Lil smoke grenades are cheap as fuck yet people refuse to run them because they like being victims
>>552595326Says who? If someone shoots first but can't kill in 1 mag, the person who is shot has a better chance of surviving and turning the fight around. The better player wins in this scenario (most of the time); not just the person that shot first.How are you supposed to have "better positioning" when you need to run in the open some times? you are limited by many factors of the game. Where you're going, how you can get there, if there's arc, if there's world conditions (snow, etc), if you are paying attention to the game, and so on. There is no way possible to always be in the better position/etc. However, if the game balanace wasn't dogshit and you didn't die in less than 1 second to a grey level 1 stitcher or kettle, you could/would/should have a fighting chance. Most scenarios in the game end up as:>shot first>shield broken, health low>die very soon afterWhat it should be is:>shot first>see the attacker and try to dodge/run/etc their shots>survive long enough because your shield actually does something>retaliate and get the upper hand because you are the better player (or die because you aren't), and winAs it stands, any dog ass player can be a rat and "win" or just bum rush with a stitcher and also win. It takes no skill of any kind to face fuck anyone with a stitcher/kettle and win. It just shouldn't be this way. Not even including how dog ass heavy shields are because you're slowed down; medium aint much better because it saves you from like 1 extra bullet, sometimes maybe. Wow.
>>552595967NTA but you are getting insecure and calling hacks because a player told you to use smokes and cockroach, this isn't even a skill issue anymore you are likely just low IQ and can't find solutions to your problems
>>552594628>bro i totally clutched up and 1v9'd on my own even hit a 720 no scope with my osprey bro, you just suck, just position better lolSounds like you were in a carebear lobby. Pvp trio lobbies just push your shit in as soon as 1 teammate dies while one of them has 12+ trigger nades to throw at you. Unless you are saying some of the top 1% fps/tps players like shroud/ninja/tfue are somehow beneath your level. Stay retarded
>>552594876It's not your headphones. The audio is just genuinely fucked. You can even find weird spots where you can hear much farther than normal. Like I was in a Blue Gate village building and I could swear someone was either in the building with me or on the roof. I look out the window. The guy I was hearing was like 4 buildings away. I went outside, couldn't hear him at all.
>>552596191>Find solution for a problem embedded into the game and inherently in the culture of SEA playerbase
im mostly on passive lobbies cause I like helping old guys learn the game, chatting and dropping them cool blueprints or pinks if I find things I don't need.Maybe 2 out of 10 raids, I'll get someone who shoots me on sight, and that's great. It's part of the game. If every single match I ever play was le jolly cooperation I would be bored.as fuck. I need that gamble that even if I'm in a safer raid, there is still that danger that it'll be that chance. Does it work in reverse though? Do pvpers occasionally get chungartha lobbies where they can mow us down like sheep?
>>552595975Big smokes are cheap too and way more effective
>>552597391Not everyone has the bp tbf
>>552592070Lost a fuckin full loadout including a hullcracker, Torrente, Anvil and tons of ammo and gear. Fuck rocketeers.Anyways, the game soundtrack is really good.
>>552597359No because they get into PvP every single raid it keeps them in those lobbies. I think doing things like looting and shooting arc in proximity and with other raiders also gets you pushed to PvE lobbies. It tracks that in the after game stats, so if you use prox chat and befriend people and go do shit together I think that helps. That literally never happens in PvP servers because everyone ignores the arc and just goes to kill others constantly.
I am fucking tired of losing to a lvl3 stitcher as a torrente user, I literally can't fucking trade with that garbage even with better shields because some braindead retard decided that it should have a 2.5x headshot modifierWhy the fuck is the balance so fucking dogshit
>>552597963The devs are freekit fags and have fun stealing "better loot" from players
>>552597963Stitcher is broken but torrente isn't really meant to be a 1v1 gun
>realized I havent heard any suicide flares in awhileI wonder if those people get filtered out of Friendlyville
Newcutie here i just found my first RUST GEAR. After fighting hordes of arcs it dropped in Maintenance Wing. I didn't even know there is high loot tier underground location.
>>552598569Congrats, they are semi rare, most of the time people need to farm breaching car engines and hope its in there
>>552593712To kill arc right?
>>552598912
new KINO has been uploaded and hes strimming (streaming) RN. LETS RIDE BUNGULATORS. *EEEEEE theme song play's*
>>552592070>too afraid to play on night or emslol

I like watching Peanut lose
>>552599473ironic or otherwise i genuinely don't know why you keep doing this every single day
>>552601012because hes kino?
Can we address real problem that is dropping dupes of blueprints before getting other ones?>ah sweet another bp>it's fucking glowstick in a color i already have no less
>>552601069>ohhhh yeaaahhh he's so kino but i would never EVER ever drop him a quick hundo or tier 3 sub
>>552601251I've donated to him before
>>552601373baited for this exact replypeople like you need to be supervised 24/7
>>552601069It took me less than a minute to figure out he's a moron. You must've ate glue as a kid if you find him funny or entertaining.
>>552601476Because I have expendable income? If you can't afford a donation here and there you're likely broke af
>>552601476Bro you've never supported your oshii? He LITERALLY won the vtuber awards.
>>552601619you're not only spending your time marketing a multimillionaire's business for free, you're actually paying him for the privilege
>>552602061I'm paying for entertainment, people waste money on plenty of shit like a coffee everyday
>>552602213you are a spiritual cuckold paying for someone else to play a video game in your stead while also pretending that he is your friendyou NEED to kill yourself
>>552602514My man, it's literally the same thing as listening to a podcast or watching a doc about something
>>552598365>the devs are freenigs>lights in finals>crippled bipoc women assault in bfv>general grevious mains in battlefront ii>worst of all, spiteful defeated swedes that enjoy others suffering
>>552602213But those same people wouldnt pay for the coffee if they can get it for free. You are paying someone because you are a fucking parasocial loser who has no friends.
Some of you never had a favorite streamer that helps you through a bad time so you would donate to them
>>552603478>streamer>helps you through a bad timeYou'd be better off going to a circus than pretending that those people are your friends or anywhere near your moral framework.
KINO INTRO/TRANSITION/SONG.
PEANUT IS SO FUCKING FUNNY
>>552603478Bro…
I have NEVER shot another Raider. I will NEVER shoot another Raider. Those who trespass upon me shall gluttonously feast upon my Goop and will therefore be cast into the pits of Hell whilst I ascend to the upper echelon of Chungartha. The Raider that wishes to take my Goop will receive what I can already craft with my own hands, and will craft again without issue, as well as what loot that I had found during the map, which wasn't even mine yet as I had not extracted with it. There will always be another chance for me to get the loot that I am looking for, while there may never be another chance for such trespassers to set foot in the hallowed ground of Chungartha.
>>552592070Can I stop getting random pvp niggers in my match when I'm doing matriarch please. Jesus fuck I don't like losing my hulk crackers, Bettina, and equalizers because some random nigger got into our friendly lobbies.
>>552605420Go play a PvE game then.
>>552605485This is a pve game you fucking nigger.
>>552605420you have to find a group of people asap, there are people who think this game is>queue up for a boss>kill someone who obviously geared up for the boss>extract and sell it all because you think it's a lot of valueand unironically don't think past that, just>these people are targets for me and if they kill me I have to requeue on my freekit and do it again>that's how you earn money in this game
>>552605621>PvPvE game>PvE trannies keep seething that they bought both modesFuck off back to slime rancher or some shit.
>it says pvp on the boxsociopath NPC response
>>552605828>attempt to social pressure people to play the game to your benefitFuck off back to r*ddit.
>>552605974redditargs love pvp>ya i killed someone with a red glowstick once>I saw another player being friendly>so I threw it at him>and he ran away from it>so I emptied my mag into him>lmao I basically killed him with a glowstick
>>552606107>completely misses the point like the retard he isThis is a game with both PvE and PvP.Carebearfags can go fuck themselves.Codniggers can also go fuck themselves.There are plenty games for your "kind".
The Queen is way more fun than The Matriarch desu.
>>552606338the queen is significantly easier than the matriiarch, you mean
>>552606338i didn't know there was a difference, I've been avoiding it so I don't get shot in the back and lose my anvil
>>552605723You retarded nigger you don't understand the match making system at all. If you want to pvp you get put into pvp lobbies. You are playing a pvp game. I am not. I'm in friendly lobbies 99% of the time with an occasional nigger like you.
>>552606403Yes
>>552606461No you retarded niggerfaggot, I hate both the fucking extremes. I came here for the mixed experience as it was on launch.KYS.
>>552606630>as it was on launch
>>552606704>system knowledge doesn't lead to abuseKys.
>>552603478That is the most pathetic shit ive ever heard of. Genuinely kill yourself, anon.
>>552606461I put myself into Chungartha just to go rape 10 people doing queen/matriarch with trigger nades. Stay mad retard cuck
>>552605828You're the same faggot that goes into dark souls threads and seethes about invaders for 8 hours straight. You actually would be a bigger benefit to the planet as compost.
>>552606630That's what you want to play. I don't. I'm tired of fake friendly niggers like you. Id rather be in ba shoot on sight lobby then a state of constant suspicion. So guess what? I don't play in those lobbies.I don't give a fuck what you want. I'm tired of random niggers like you being placed into my match to backstabb me whenever I equip legendary items. It's literally not worth ever using legendary equipment if I have to worry about niggers like you. Why the hell would anyone bring anything valuable to a matriarch event. Fuck off and kys nigger.>>552607083Cool fake story.
>>552607181Well yeah, dark souls is already hard enough
>>552607417>buys a PvPvE game>refuses to participate with one side of the game>is surprised when the game punishes him for itUninstall, refund and seethe off somewhere else.
>>552607181>seethes about invaders for 8 hours straightAnd you're the kind of faggot nigger who complains about invading into gang Squads and Duels at the bonfire. You don't want pvp. You don't want a fair fight. You want to pick on people who aren't looking for a fight and run from niggas who are looking for fights. If you wanted a fight in dark souls you'd be doing duels. Not hunting down players trying to process the level and low on heals. If you wanted to pvp in arc raiders you'd run squads not trying to pretend to be friendly and shoot unsuspecting players in the back.People like you are pussy scared faggots looking to prey on weaker people. You aren't looking for pvp. You're a bitch who wants to be opportunistic like a fucking nigger. KYS.
>>552607591I'm literally in pve only lobbies 99.999 of the time. Kys nigger
>>552607663NTA, but gear balance and TTK is an entirely different topic, especially the topic PvP players tend to want to fix.You are still a whiny fag.
this game is extremely flawed
>>552607591Stop pretending to be retarded
>>552607912>flawedthat's simply the nature of all things in this world
bro I cannot fucking stop getting murked by ARC right at the end of the round, what the fuck am I doing wrongos
>>552608261other games aren't as flawed, and this game gets boring reaaaal fast. I think if you know you shit past 20-30 hours of gameplay, there is really not much to do other than look for blueprints. Even if you spent your time in PVP KOSitan
>>552608354I cant tell you without seeing a clip or somethingbefore the survivor kit, the fucking hornets would always get me, even when I'm in a doorway, they get the perfect angle to peekthe wasps are annoying but managable with 3 heavy shotsleaper is just hiding or killing ittheres pretty much a house near every extractrocketeer is hiding or killing itsame thing, except that swamp extract, you're just fucked if you don't use a cloak or lock in and dodge everythingif you call the elevator before you get downed, you should have enough time for it to get called up and extract before bleeding out, shouldn't rely on it, but I do it anyway sometimes because survivor kit

LETS RIDE
>>552607792>TTK is an entirely different topicOf course that's a different topic you retarded nigger. I'm Talking Bout a completely different topic >umm sir this topic is different than the bullshit I'm talking about.
any of you ever get the black screen "crash" or freeze or whatever it is? >screen goes black>mouse/kb/peripherals lose power>pc completely unresponsive>RGB lights still on>fans still running>no audio>happens when launching game or when starting a match, only ever happened with this game
freekit faggot tried to rat me at extraction. OOPS, BIG MISTAKE! I headshot him twice in a row.
>>552609729It's not even real pvp. These faggots just want to shoot people in the back while they're doing the queen or matriarch. That's not pvp.
>>552610205>low TTK is widely known to reduce social interaction possibilities because it's safer to kill on sight>"but it doesn't do anything!">continues to whine about his PvE retardation completely missing the pointYou are massive fucking retard anon.
>>552609729No one is saying that you fucking retard. But you cant come to a general for a pvpve game and then whine nonstop about the vp aspect incessantly like a petulant moronic child. Then bitch cry and moan about pvpers getting into your sneeesome chungus lobbies after you just spent 20 raids in a row looting boxes for 70-100k loot.Take your loss like a fucking man, realize the genre of game you are playing, and if you cant take it then just fuck off. This game isn't for you.
>>552611021>Take your loss like a fucking man, realize the genre of game you are playing, and if you cant take it then just fuck off. This game isn't for you.If I wanted to play Tarkov I'd play that. Neither of us are playing that for a reason. There is zero reason to add pvp players into a matriarch event in a lobby full of Friendly's. It's a huge waste of our time and equipment but you wouldn't get that because you're a sociopath.>>552610343>umm you don't get it this different topic is sort of related but not the same topic. I'm not talking about that or care about it you retard nigger. if I wanted to talk about that I'd have a Made a post about it. I don't need your sub 90 iq ass telling me it's a different topic.
came out with some nice loot after avoiding an entire lobby of rats
whining about the 1 in 20 chance there's a nigger in chungartha is just as retarded as whining about how stupid someone is for hey raidering you and walking past without recognizing that you're the nigger
>>552611278>PvP-focused players want better gear and TTK balance to make social interactions more prominent>PvE trannies continue to whine regardless until the game is fully accommodated to their likingYou know what nigger, fuck you, I now fully agree with that anon. Fuck off to a PvE game.
>>552611021You sound like this faggothttps://files.catbox.moe/schpku.mp4

>>552611278>sociopathYour posts are so braindead and so easy to point out in every general. You've been posting this and psychopath in PvP games for years. The only psychopath here is you buddy. Maybe go play an MMO because social pve sounds like the only thing you care about.
>>552611972>the sub-75 iq monkey whines about solo PvP being a "shoot in the back simulator">point out that PvP players want to fix it via TTK and gear balance specifically to promote PvE behaviour that you like>nigger completely misses the fucking point and continues to whine about PvP in a PvPvE game until the game is fully accomodated to his likingLeave the fucking thread, nobody likes you.

>>552612238You are retarded. You don't get the nuance. TTK doesn't matter in this situation. I'm not talking about random pvp. I'm talking about opportunistic niggers who will pretend to be friendly, not in random lobbies but in event lobbies where even if it the ttk was twice as much it wouldn't matter. Because they can just sit around pretending to be friendly until they catch someone alone or hurt. It literally wouldn't matter. I don't care about the TTK. If you want to talk about that then make a post about it you faggot. Don't reply to me about it then explain something as obvious as it being a different topic you ESL faggot dick slurper. Pvpers should NEVER be put into extreme friendly servers during an event. It's not pvp and it's a huge waste of my time and resources. Stay in your pvp lobbies and fuck off wasting my time and resources. If I wanted to pvp I'd be in squads. >>552612076>Your posts are so braindead and so easy to point out in every generalYou are schizophrenia incarnate. I'm not posting in other generals.

This is a pathetic general with a couple of dorks playing dress up dolls, a couple of bungholelaters or whatever, some retard who makes up unfunny greentexts, an incel who has like 500 hours and doesn't even pvp, and a bunch of people who are either bitching about balance or telling uninteresting greentexts.... FFXIVG has actual tranny pedophiles and an actual diaperfag.

I have a theory. It's a dumb theory but it could fit the narrative.> Embark announces a new map> community lead-up event where you need to pass a special questline on the Spaceport (hidden bunker continuation), also need to loot some special engines from a new megaprobe ARC> finally go to the orbit, crash your pod into pic related> vast interstellar ark filled with exodus and post-exodus tech, think computers and equipment that produce Bastions and Queens. People died off long ago, ARC computer took over> every launch needs a buy-in requiring rare exodus components or a special fuel you get from siphoning ARC, no freeshitters allowed.> the map is not even available at all times, instead there is a "launch window" so it's only available as often as, say, hidden bunker> security systems everywhere, advanced ARCs not seen on the surface, need purple or yellow gear to even think about it. The payoffs are extreme and it completes the game's lore, you find explanations for what ARC is and what happened to Exodus ppl> if you go up from the rotating ring, gravity weakens, and central shaft is zero-g, giving snap hooks more usage.> extraction is evac pods, limited number, around half the lobby size, requiring even Chungarthans to think twice before "Hey, raider"-ingBut the best part is:> the map is a (failed) interstellar colony ship, an ark if you willIn the end we truly were the Ark Raiders
>>552621074Man, you should see some real samefaggingIf someone is samefagging here, they are doing it to laugh at themselves? Get a few (you)s?There are people (in FFXIVG like anon mentioned) who so concerned with their "thread credibility" , they will samefag conversations with themselves or reply to themselves a lot, to make themselves look popular with the all the other posters there, because they all play an MMO and see each other everyday ingameWe don't even know or play with each other here
Can anyone explain the snaphook to me? It's a cool util item, but there's really no where in the game it has a "use" for? There's no cool loot spots you can't get to without it. You can nearly always climb a ladder or use a zipline (which is cheaper and more effective and also has longer range) or things like that. It's also kind of fincky to use, having to have it on your hotbar, pull it out, aim it, etc. I just don't see the point of using this "valuable" item except to sell
>>552623289there are a bunch of roof places with weapon crates or raider bags in places you can't reach without it or a zip lineand if you can't see the value in getting above other players in places they can't easily reach then I don't know what to say
>>552623289You can snaphook on top of arc to set deadmines, and it's quicker than zips and not just one time use.
>>552624067>can't see the value in getting aboveI do. It's just that it takes too long to use and you risk dying very easily when using it. The range of it is insanely bad which is what causes it to be not so useful in my book. I should be able to zip like 80m+ with the thing, I should be able to use it very quickly. Yes it gives you "instant" verticality. But you need to be just as close to use it as you do to the ladder right next to you; which doesn't cost anything to use, can't be lost, goes to the same place, etc. The only place I can think of is Buried City Hospital roof which has a bag and a sec locker. Other than that, you can get to pretty much anywhere else in the game without it; or more dense/better loot places normally (buildings/etc). Zipline also lets you shoot while using it, zipline does not and is very loud. Why it's a gold item is beyond me when it's more like a green item. If it had no durability, more "charges" (or a faster reload speed), and 30 extra meters, that would be good. As it stands, I haven't used it nearly the entire time I've played the game and don't miss it at all now that I am trying to use it more

>>552613338>rewarded for engaging with game systems and bringing in good gearWhat fucking reward can you possibly get if the pver is using equalizer and the fake friendly trying to shoot him in the back is using a level 1 Toro or level 4 stitcher with a level 2 magazine extender? It's not fucking Worth it and never will be. There's absolutely zero payoff for a pver "winning" a fight against someone shooting them in the back. My hullcracker or equalizer is worth more than everything you're wearing. I don't want or need anything a pvper is carrying because doing pve gives me all the crafting mats to make anything you're carrying 20x over. There shouldn't be pvp in pve raids. Period. Fuck off you third world nigger.
>>552628069i didn't follow the convobut they really should turn pvp off for matriarch shit, I can't imagine ho people probably quit the game because they are new and think>oh cool the boss is up>I think I will finally bring all my cool stuff and everyone in the lobby can work together>then some guy spawns in 1 minute behind you>shoots you in the back>extracts with your hullcracker and launcher ammo and sells it thinking he just made bank
What am I doing wrong with blueprints?>spawn into maps with special conditions and loot everything from spawn to contested areas. Nothing>spawn into maps with no special conditions. B-line to high contested areas. Still nothing.>nothing but anvils and renegadesSurely there is a blueprint hunt guide
>>552628470nta, but i think the entire point is to make gear worth bringing hence the mentions of TTK and stuff.Cutting out PvP from a PvPvE game is stupid, but it's also stupid allowing PvP to be that much more lethal at a much lesser investment.
Freekit cooldowns like Call of Duty DMZ. Up to an hour
>>552628605personally I was only thinking for boss lobbies, it's just not needed thereI guess the devs are fags and think it's fun to kill people just wanting to kill the boss they made and shooting them in the back though, so it will probably never change because they are those exact freekitters
>>552628736Nah, let the PvP element be everywhere, that's what makes the social interactions interesting, as soon as people found out how to abuse the MM systems it's just polarized bullshit of either full carebear lobbies or full kos lobbies.Maybe put in less "hostile" people for boss lobbies, but it should never be 0.Or on the other hand they could make something like a big 9v9 mode with 3 joint teams fighting against another 3 joint teams for the loot.
>>552606107>Some random Redditnigger is more of an apex predator than some /arg/ carebearGrim.
>>552628552sometimes you're just unlucky man, I know it was before the blueprint increase, but my personal experience was never finding a blueprint in 100 hours of playtime and that's being a carebear that only loots and ignores pvpit helped once they raised the rates and I can find them more consistently now, but I'll still go like sometimes 10+ raids without finding any just because everything is looted alreadyor people will go infind the blueprintand suicidewould not be surprised if there is a limited amount of blueprints in the loot pool and you're fucked if other people find them all in the first few minutes
I spent 3 hours trying to get a virtual cable to work so I can blast music in prox chat but this game specifically distorts the audio to complete shit.

>>552626662That sounds like a tomboy or maybe butch lesbo if anything.
>>552628605>, but i think the entire point is to make gear worth bringing hence the mentions of TTK and stuff.WHAT ARE THE FUCK ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT NIGGER? How the fuck is it worth risking my equalizer for your shitty as level 1 rattler or stitcher? How is it ever worth bringing my Hullcracker and dozens of thousands of coins worth of ammo and healing? We don't get SHIT from killing a pvper. Even if you had a Ventnor 4 it's not fucking worth it. I don't give a shit about your stitcher or trigger nades. My ammo is worth more than your entire kit. KYS YOU FUCKING RETARD
>>552628958>Nah, let the PvP element be everywhere, that's what makes the social interactions interestingOh look how INTERDERESTING it is for someone to say they're friendly then shoot me in the back for the 100th time. ohhhh it's so fucking clever and interesting and unique. FUCKING MCKILL YOURSELF NIGGRR
I've started putting my hullcracker ammo in my safepockets, idk why people are so thirsty over like 50k worth of coins
>>552630167I am literally arguing for your equalizer to wipe the floor with friggers, are you fucking braindead?>>552630293>t. seething fag
>>552630318>I've started putting my hullcracker ammo in my safepockets, idk why people are so thirsty over like 50k worth of coinsPvpers think they're making money by back stabbing you for a 30k gun but in friendly lobbies you can easily and quickly make 80k to 120k in minutes. PvPers have a scarcity mindset.
Embark do not take my ideas. Do Not. Saar.>Arc Jackals. Canine-like arcs that spawn around Knocked Down players, heightens the risk of looting.
>>552630359>literally arguing for your equalizer to wipe the floor with friggersPoint out where you said that ESL kun. Equalizer is not designed to PvP. It is a PvE weapon just like the hullcracker which does ZERO damage to players. You are still not saying shit about the "RETARD REWARDS" for winning a fight against a pvper. WE DO NOT GET ANYTHING FOR WINNING. I LOSE DURABILITY ON MY FUCKING SHIELDS and MEDS even if I win. Meanwhile you get a 50k kit. IT IS NOT WORTH IT AND A HUGE WASTE OF TIME AND RESOURCES. Free kits shouldn't even be ALLOWED into Matriarch events. Pvp shouldn't even be allowed during raid bosses. It's a waste of time for pvers. We get literally nothing for even winning besides suspicion from other players on why we killed you. STAY IN YOUR THIRD WORLD LOBBIES.
>>552630938If you are not familiar nor wish to engage with basic extraction shooter concepts as "protecting yourself" - I think you bought the wrong game.

>>552630938he' saying the rare shit should be buffed so free kits have a much much harder time killing geared guys. therefore pvpers have to bring better shit themselves if they want to compete and therefore have more to lose
>>552631635I think he understands that, he wants to completely ignore half the game and be rewarded for it.
>>552631635>pvpers have to bring better shit themselves if they want to compete and therefore have more to loseYou stupid fucking nigger. What could a pvper possibly bring that's worth it for a pver to risk their hullcracker? Do you even KNOW what the PvP Meta weapons are? Which of them is worth me risking my hullcracker or equalizer? GO ON SAY IT YOU DUMB FUCKING NIGGER.
>>552594348>These people run past each other like they aren't even there. Its extraordinary.Not the case. There's a certain etiquette in peaceful lobbies that you need to follow, like saying hi to people near you, not sneaking up on them, not being a sus bitch, not going into people's blindspots while they're stuck mid-animation. Learning to filter people is a skill, and like you said, your own responsibility.>>552593901>The problem is people become too comfortable with other raidersTrue but the risk in this fragile comfort is the part of the experience. Weeding someone out that tries taking advantage of you, then ridding them of a PvP-ready kit that they wasted time and resources on is half the fun.
>>552631820I agree it's not worth it you fucking spastic, that's why the rare shit needs buffs so the current pvp meta doesn;t work against high gear.
>>552629202yes it is
How about >Freekits: to equip a second weapon you must drop every item in your loot space.Rat’s reaction?
>>552632287why would I need more than a macro kettle
>>552632287Just cutting weapon slots to 1 works. I guess alongside the multiple grey weapon nerfs people were proposing and the grey shields they can get a small inventory buff to 16 so they are actually a loot-focused desperation option and not a codnigger royale 0 effort pick
>>552632030It will never be worth it. Pvpers are never going to be able to afford expensive gear. They never use expensive gear.Keep pvpers out of my friendly raid boss lobbies. FUCK OFF. no one gives a shit about your re imaginings of weapon balance.
>>552632445>Pvpers are never going to be able to afford expensive gear. They never use expensive gear.You are literally dismissing suggestions that would make them engage more in PvE as well as bring better gear to PvP.Drop your headcanon faggot.
>>552632604>You are literally dismissing suggestions that would make them engage more in PvEThey do not engage in pvp. You arr talking about some hypothetical bull shit and I'm the headcanon? KYS. Right now unless the entire fucking game is changed.. IT... IS... NEVER.. WORTH... RISKING... MY... HULLCRACKER... OR... EQUALIZER.... TO... PVPERS... WHO DONT HAVE SHIT WORTH OF ME EVEN TAKING. IT IS NOT WORTH IT. EVER.HOW FUCKING RETARDED NIGGER IQ DO YOU HAVE TO BE TO NOT GET THAT? THE JUICE IS NOT WORTH THE SQUEEZE YOU PVP TRANNY.
>>552593439I agree with you on the "get shot first, die first" issue, it really always boils down to first-shot advantage. But I still stand by the opinion that diplomacy and cooperation net you better results than hood mentality of blasting first.Let me give you an example:Friendly lobby on Night Stella, players flock to medical research for the expensive loot. There's a few Shredders patroling, and they're in the way.Would you rather have a handful of people get together, scrap the shredder, then loot in peace, or do you want to the risk of ticks, shredders, fireballs, and raiders to still be there for some containers with not even 5k worth of loot.I've had multiple instances of either rezzing or healing or sharing items with someone or avenging them after they got ratted on, and they were always more than happy to share a blueprint or a key that I they would have otherwise kept to themselves. It's all part of the social sandbox - I'm not saying you should ignore PvP entirely because there's always gonna be shitheads, but from how the game and matchmaking is designed, the biggest tryhards will also have the worst time. If you're in good lobbies, you might as well take advantage of them, have some fun with the social aspects of the game.
>>552632848>and I'm the headcanon>we live in a world where changes are impossible and the only way to fix PvPvE is to completely separate it because I'm not willing to consider any changes to be possible or effectiveYes. Headcanon.
>>552632941diplomacy and cooperation mean nothing to a pvperI am there to kill youif a shredder kills me afterwards I don't care, it was a free kit anyways
>>552594628>Claiming movement, gun use or positioning cant turn the fight in your favor is clown shit.Yeah anon lemme see you you outplay your way out of a 1v1 with 0 stamina left and 20HP. Oh right you fucking don't cause the movement and positioning are non-existent at that point.
>>552633302This is why freekits are omega cancer. It's fucking pathetic Embark refuses to see this
This is the most schizophrenic thread I've seen in a while.
>>552610298>It's not even real pvp.yeah cause TTK is so busted and first-shot advantage is pro prevalent that the only way for them to actually win a fight is to shoot first, especially at players that had no intention of engaging.
>>552632848freekits getting some better balance is a pipe dream given the devs. but it seems a tad more plausible than just turning the game into helldivers like you seem to want
>>552633598>seems a tad more plausible than just turning the game into helldivers like you seem to wantKYS NIGGER. If you want to pvp then gave fun in the full pvp lobbies.
>>552633598I honestly think we're more likely to see a dedicated pve mode than any changes to free kits given how retarded embark is. If the playerbase drops off a cliff I could see them caving in and adding pve, I don't see them being smart enough to realize what a problem free kits are.
>>552633524You are bad at the game that's the only reason ppl like you want pvp to happen during matriarch events. because you can't win fair fights. I can win sometimes even if someone shoots me first. it's called running to cover. and healing while forcing them to rush you and abusing your cover.You are bad at the game and do not want fair fights.
>free kits are bad because it's all reward and no riskfair>I want to kill bosses and get all the reward without the risk of getting killed myselfyou are a retarded person
>>552633598>freekits getting some better balance is a pipe dream givenThat's what you retard pvpers can't understand. Even if you aren't using a free kit, I don't get anything for winning. u don't given shit about your sticher 4 or venator 4. My equalizer or just my ammo is worth more than your entire kit. it's never worth it for me. I don't want your shitty bandages. fuck off back to you shoot on sight lobbies.
>retard still complains about buying an extraction shooter

>>552633724Nah, I'll kill you seems more fun with how assmad you are.

>>552633918>>I want to kill bosses and get all the reward without the risk of getting killed myselfListen you 3rd world monkey niggerDo you have any idea how expensive a matriarch kit is? Do you know many bandages and shield recharges we need to bring? You have any clue how expensive my ammo and guns are? The matriarch is perfectly capable of wiping the lobby given that it can summon multiple rocketeers, bastions, bombardier, leapers, wasps, and poppers. EVEN IF I SURVIVED THE FIGHT AND KILL THE MATRIARCH. There's a good chance I don't get shit worth all of the Ammo and meds I wasted. you clearly have never done the event so keep your retarded sub 70 iq nigger monkey brained mouth SHUT

>accidentally emoted "wanna team up?" instead of just a "Hey, raider!" and now this guy is following me around like a lost dog and I don't have the heart to kill him or tell him to fuck off
>>552634498Unlike you I participate in both aspects of the game. I'm not like Peanut who ignores everything but pvp. I can easily take a few games of just looting to get into chungartha, it's quite easy. Which is why your stupid little bandaid Embark gave you won't ever solve your issues of being a complete loser.
>>552634406Go into a matriach with trios thenGo into a solo matriarch and make some friends, nigga. Split the loot like a good sport.Bring a hatch key.Stop bitching already

>>552634424>nigger actually confesses that he wants no risk all rewardall reward and no risk is just my average chungartha stella run :)
>>552633908>You are bad at the game and do not want fair fights.I am decent at the game and therefore understand that most fights are inherently not fair, which is why I don't engage players unless I have a reason to - they shot first, don't call themselves out, don't respond with "don't shoot". I played enough Finals to know that Embark don't design combat around fairness, but rather situational advantage, be it positioning, loadout, movement etc. ARC has little in the way of movement and positioning, especially when getting shot once takes down all your shield and stamina for some reason. Their servers are so dogshit that even if you're good at the game, some 150ping shitter is gonna down you with his kettle macro even after you're 5 feet behind a corner.
>>552634761Not the point I was making. Teams will stack your chances from being ratted, retard.

>>552636229>waaaah why do i get punished for not being able to tell the random freekit with a rattler 1 isn't going to actually fight the queen, he's just a sociopath! why should I have to think about trusting a random person in this game where anyone can kill me!?!?
>>552637093>first of all why are you not running stimsI used them all to get to the PoI>why the fuck would you be 20hp ever5 shots from a lvl4 gun within 1 frame will do to that to you. hit detection and TTD is garbage as usual
>>552636639Who cares. If you’re not playing this game to get exclusive trial skins reaching Cantina rank then you’re wasting your time from my point of view.
This game is genuinely horrible. Why does it such a pain in the ass to craft all the items you need for standard expedition? Why can't I have saved loadouts with all the stupid fucking items in this game?
Honestly I wanted Embark to fix the PvP gear progression ever since the start. But now reading this thread, the pve only faggots are so sad it's almost laughable. I hope they buff freekits even more. This dumb fuck in the thread deserves every ounce of lead he gets fed.
>>552637592The loadout system is trash because the developers actually hate the players.God forbid they implement a system that keeps you from fucking around the menus longer than you need to.
>>552637592>>552637824The whole point of no saved loadout is repercussions for dying. You think you just get to go topside, die, come back, and hit a magic button that makes your build all over again? That's stupid.
>>552638097Scrappy is a chicken that collects plastic and metal while you're on a mission, he can build the fucking loadout while I'm gone you stupid faggot stop defending everything decision these retards developers make.
>>552638227You’re lucky Embark doesn’t let Scrappy build the pile while the game is not running
>>552638227The menus are 40% of the game
What kind of environment do you guys want in a new map be it condition, vibes, locale, etc? for me I'd say a more extreme version of Stella Montis where while everyone can spawn in, only one person/ one squad can extract and there exists only one extract that has to be unlocked. put in some hostile NPC raiders or androids while we're at it
>>552638409Giant robot. interactive map.no pvp
>>552638409Mt Vesuvius
>>552638409No arcs at all with more players loading in as a result, raider rush or something.Also loadouts before new environments, I hate these menus.
>>552638769>a map that takes place in a giant ass ARC that can only be entered by killing it during an eventEmbark, please I beg of you
>>552638409gas leakit becomes too dangerous to stay indoors for too long due to build up of a poisonous gas.basically the opposite of cold snap where you have to stay indoors most of the time
>shitters have gone from complaining about pvp to no loadoutsfreekit GODS
>wonder why everyone keeps telling me I need to heavily invest in the green tree>they're all pvpersyeah I'm not wasting points on "make your gun weigh 5lbs instead of 10lbs" when i only bring one gun anyway and never have weight problems because I invested into the red tree
>>552639450This but Firebreak. Fire spreads throughout key points of interest on the map and burns in a pattern. Forcing you to time your looting to avoid the flames. Aerial arcs only since they avoid fire damage.
>>552628605Freekit pvpers essentially fill the role of lethal human npcs. Thats how I view them at least. Rather than create actual human npcs, Embark allows freekiters to be potentially as lethal as they are. Embark whats the player to have to deal with them. Hence the lack of a cooldown and what not. I could explain it better but you probably see what I mean
>>552638097This went over peoples heads
Shredders made me drop the game
>Someone forgot to loot all the parts of the BastionThanks for the free core.
>just realized it's better to hipfire while corner peaking because you hold your gun further from your center of massI have 300 hours in squads
>>552641534Just toss a couple impact nades at them and they're gone
Where do I get more weapon blueprints? All I've found are weapon modifications and grenades. It's getting a little tiring. Do you progress towards weapons eventually after depleting all the shit blueprints or is it random?
>>5526415342 sticky nades kill them. I'm pretty shit at the game but I grinded the 10 shredder cores in an hour or so. Literal skill issue.Also having 3 safe pockets is soooo fucking good. Granted Mk3 Healing is a useless augment in solo, but until I find Survivor again it will do. Better than Looting Mk2.
>>552642842>shit blueprints>attachments and utility are the best bps in the gameHmmm
>>552642842Its rng
Anyone else do stupid shit that would get you knocked but you do it anyways because it's funny?https://streamable.com/h14shq
>>552643050alright guess i'll make a gun out of attachments or someshit
>>552642030I honestly think they run out of inventory space
>need 70 (SEVENTY) fucking berries for the final stage of the eventGood thing I'm chunghartian.
>>552642030I once found a WHOLE unlooted Bastion. And I heard no gunfire, no explosions. When I walked out of the building it was just already there. Apparently been standing like that for a while.
>>552640337They should be at least a bit dangerous, but they shouldn't be the braindead shift+w machines that they are right now; you can't give player intelligence and cunning alongside good equipment to what essentially should be fodder and map fill.Everything always comes down to shit PvP balance that also extends to shit PvPvE balance because of investment differences in the end.
Buried City seems quite nice for berry runs. Nobody seems to loot the west-south-west outskirts, because there's no high value loot areas there. Why play on coldsnap maps and go for regular loot? Well, maybe I'm just slow and everyone got all their berries already.
>>552642030>kill something big>get massive anxiety that someone saw/heard it and is coming to pillage it or kill me while i'm vulnerable
>>552643683Consumables and weapon attachments are the only thing worth investing into because the first one is actually balanced unlike everything else and the latter grants % bonuses so it's irrelevant what you put them on. The current meta is literally a grey weapon (stitcher/kettle) with green/blue attachments and utility spam.The only exception is the survivor augment.
>>552644281I only get loot goblin fit when that happens and I try to stuff my pockets as much as possible.
Some days; I am a ratSome Days; I am a saintIt works for meTry it
>>552644806Based PvPvE chad.
>>552644749I appreciate that the do this since I'm a low attention span zoom zoom and alt+tab often
>>552645002Get a second monitor, I find that an old square LCD works pretty nice because a second widescreen takes up too much space.
In the last few days at least 50% of the people I've died to are low level Steam accounts with game bans on record. Getting pretty annoying.
>>552644247>coldsnap rotated to Blue GateOh shit. FUCK this map with coldsnap. It was not designed for this shit. Literally no places to warm up.
I've never done Hidden Bunker on Spaceport. How does that work? I can't see any bunkers on the map there.
>>552645875it's hidden...
>>552644049Im not disagreeing with you, but I think there are currently functioning as intended by Embark. They want players to deal with other people that treat the game like cod.
What guns do you guys put your kinetic converters on whenever you do find them, i currently have all 5 of mine on vulcanos
>>552645105I probably will soon. I'll check out the january sales since I'm pretty sure you can get basic bitch 1080p ones for like 60 bucks nowadays
>>552645919It says you need to push the buttons to open it. But then the buttons must be hidden as well. Like that church on Blue Gate. And hidden buttons are bad enough on their own.
>>552646281I sell mine
>>552646742Open your map nigga you got 4 relay antennas on roofs hit them and bunker opens. Its a shit event though because loot goblins go camp entrance and wait for antenna slaves to open it and clean it before those that did the work get back.
>>552646913Do those appear on the map only when you enter the event? I don't think Ive noticed any on regular Space Port.
>>552646989Yes event exclusive
>>552643958guy might have killed himself with a deadline or got shot before it exploded
>>552645767it has spots, they're just also swarming with arc
is Osprey-BP anon still looking? I have multiple extra copies at this point>>552646281torrente / bobcatmost of the stock options are bad on torrente, and bobcat is just lulzy
Is there a single cosmetic that looks good?
>>552646913>Its a shit event though because loot goblins go camp entrance and wait for antenna slaves to open it and clean it before those that did the work get backthis is the worst part, I never lever looted that place once
>>552647986
>>552648134Is the scar paid?
>>552644247gotta be prepared for a cross country jog if you don't spawn near the village or tunnel
>>552648302I don't remember where I picked it up from, but the game gives you more than enough paid currency to get a few bundles or individual components, like the ritual hammer (best looking prybar skin)
>guy killed me for a pulse mine blueprintFUCKING KEK. Some dude gave it to me because it's so clearly trash.
>>552647986I enjoy Green Torpedo with helmet and scarf off with everything else on.
>>552648490Its incredibly common ive pulled up to 3 in a single stella montis before
>trolling with a free kit>find a dead guy at the bottom of an elevator shaft wow
>tfw at the grind money point in the expedition againFinished the berry bullshit like two weeks ago, not really sure where to go from here. I WANT to play, but fighting ARC is trivial, and with the idiocy that is our current “pvp” descending into ratkanda isn’t even fun anymore. Doesn’t help that I’ve only got one friend still playing this slop. Anything less than trio’s just exacerbates my issues with the moronic combat balancing. Don’t even get me started on trials.What are the odds embark actually manages to make this game fun again?
what the fuck is chungartha
>>552649278If you don’t shoot other players for a while you will notice you are put into raids with other chill bros. Even on Stella I run into helpful raiders and we all fuck the bastion up together and kick it, nobody shoots each other and nobody dies generally.
>>552647986I dont know if this one looks “good” but its my fav and Ive been rocking it for awhile. I think it fits the universe well. The red ryder looks good. I can post a pic later I did the finals thing and got it last night. Ive been seeing a lot of people using the most recent one with the tank top and baggy pants they took from another outfit.
>>552649278Basically what this guy said>>552649558Theyre lobbies with low amounts of pvp.
>check comments I've left on steam profiles>either the comment is deleted>or they privated the profile>just post the comment again if they didn't private
>>552647983Thank you for asking; I did finally find my Osprey BP. What did you say you were looking for, mk3 defensive? If I still have it, I'll just give it to you.
>>552650456I wear all my fan mail like badges of honor
>>552651304apparently these guys dont lmao
>Uncovered caches>time sensitive bonus loot>always get put into a game with 20 minutes left
I hardly ever shoot other players but I decided to be a rat fuck for 1 game and shot some guy in the back and knocked kim out. Does that mean I'm immediately put into one of these pvp lobbies? Should I just be a pacifist for the next few games and use free kits?
>>552651506If you continue playing you will find out.
people who extraction camp are huge fucking faggots. Brings me nothing but joy to kill them or to see them get third partied.
>>552651506get ready to speak ratkandan buddy
>>552652365>guy camping extract>downs me because I'm friendly and don't fight back>telling him I'm just doing a quest over mic and just need to extract>kills an arc and runs over to me to finish me off while extracting>punches me out right before extractat least he didn't get my stuffalso he was chinese judging from his steam profile
Okay, I went to the Hidden Bunker thing, and I've no idea if I've "done" it or not.
>>552652790its either not doneor there is no reward, you should have camped the entrance and looted everything I guessprobably what the devs do
>>552652790The only reason to run hidden bunker is for trial whenever it happens there and for Vulcano blueprints that can drop from any container on the map its almost a waste of time doing the bunker itself.
AFTER 80 FUCKING HOURS HOLY SHIT. A super kind chungarthan dropped it for me because he's preparing for the expedition. I was on a freekit so I was super stressed running down to the subway. I made sure to aggro the bastion in loading to buy me some time. Thank god. I've been chasing this blueprint since I lost it on the first day I played... when a rocketeer killed me before I could extract.
>>552652995I think I've activated the last antenna, so there was no chance for me to get to the bunker before the rats. Well, loot it whatever, I mean I'm not sure if I did what I was supposed to do with the consoles. Took me some time to realize I'm supposed to stand there and wait for it to finish, instead of running around the place like a headless chicken (like everyone else did).
>>552653525Is that Anvil bp? I thought it was super common. I got mine on my first raider before the reset very early. I even thought it was learned automatically with the bench level ups.
>>552653659I know it's nothing special since you can just buy it, but I was so sad when I lost it.
>>552653525>freekitting when greenkitting costs nothingYou deserve the stress
>>552653813>18 minute spawn>have to run to exityea. it gets annoying after a while
>>552653536yea for thosefirst one starts a download or whateverflying arc spawn while it happenswhen its done you can activate it again
>>552639107>>a map that takes place in a giant ass ARC that can only be entered by killing it during an eventbetter version: a map that takes place in a giant arc, and the only way to escape alive is to blow holes in it which you use as escape hatches

Whats the most underrated bp?

>>552625301>trannies on the mindr u?
>>552657697attachment bp's in generalCompensator, silencer, stock, extended mags. All will do way more for you in the long run than the bobcat bp or whatever
>>552594628>bro just say you suck shit because you didn't 3rd person peak someone who had no awareness of you being there because you decided to sit there for 10 minutes haha im so good bros>hahaha nice positioning bro maybe work on your movement better when i mowed you down in 1.5 secondsthe pvp in this game is a fucking joke
>>552657994what long run
>>552657309>AHH!
>>552656907is there a minigame for that so I can check online?
>>552657754Is there an objective reason as to why this is a bad thing?
>>552658364Not really the man talks about "risk" but the ones really at risk are shit players whenever more skilled players match into them so sbmm evens that increasing risk for skilled players by pitting them against other players the game considered equally skilled. Toss in abmm on top then you get a solid ecosystem of different players in their own skill and playstyle brackets for the most part. People against sbmm are usually people who are just above average at the game being upset they cant farm joe shmoes all day
>>552647986I think these look good due to their simplicity:ChapOrigin DriftcoatVelati RyderAlpinoAlso that one skin with the Gallo Rosso t shirt that I forgot its name.Though I feel like most of the complaints about skins would go away if you could actually swap parts like in the finals
is the flame snow event thing still going on? haven't played in awhile. kinda got bored with how stale it got. workin on like cooling fans or some shit and then i looked up having to kill shredders and that sounds really unfun
never used a hullcracker before, does it easily take out all the heavy hitter arcs like bastions, leapers etc.?
>>552659330It ends in like 8 days. Plenty of time
>>552653525does it really matter getting an anvil bp though? you can just buy one in the gun shop
>>552658364ok so imagine thisyou play the game seriouslyso now all you meet are the exact same loadouteither freekit with a kettle or stitcheror a fully kitted bobcat with the same grenadesthere is no excitement in the game any longerthere is no surprise factor, nobody does anything special or funthe game becomes a chore to play because all you're doing is grinding to get the number higherthis is why sbmm is toxic
>>552658983i imagine the game becomes unfun when its full of people pvping because the amount of >good positioning>awarenessand all that other bullshit people like to gloat about with shit from other shooters they apply to this game really highlights how awful it is in this game, from solo to trios.imagine a game with 25 people who are peaking corners all day waiting to take pot shots at eachother and third partying. that doesn't really work well on say, buried city. no one would be looting or doing literally anything else.then you mix in the battle dad/casual looters and they pretty much turn into mob fodder/npcs and i figured thats what the people complaining about the matchmaking in the first place, no one easy to shoot and take advantage of.
>>552659412no I just used mine for the first time, ended up teamed up with another guy using a hullcracker and it took a shit ton of nades to finish off a bastion. I am trying to find a leaper for the cores but it seems whatever I want to find in this game is avoiding me
>>552657754Doesnt Tarkov have completely different pve and pvp modes? What we have seems to be a more general >youre prone to be matched with more pve oriented playersWe’re never guaranteed to be safe from other players and Ive never played as if I am
>>552659616pvpers lose more than 3 anvils a day and all they can loot is scraps so it becomes unfeasible to get enough anvils for gameplay if they don't have the bp
>>552659641just sounds like you want to kill people playing the pve part of the game
>>552659440word thanks. just need raider coins and the tool from it.and god the new raider deck was pretty fuckin stupid so i guess i can just grab all the coins from that. then not even know what to spend it on because all the skins are kinda shit.
>>552659845pretty much where we're all at, just waiting on a paid deck full of cosmetics or an outfit I liketoo bad they'll release one cool outfit and then everyone and their mom will be using it
>>552658995the aviator outfit is tranny coded thougheverbeit
>>552659959Only if you're obsessed
>>552659959Who the fuck thinks about trans people all day
>>552659682You see thats what they want to avoid and probably how the game is retaining players so well 2 months in. gamer uncs aint getting farmed by zoomies making them quit and zoomies get their battle royale
>>552635128You aren't entitled to my loot either
>>552660085pretty much thisit seems like the only time its a problem is if you get some newfag in your raid
>>552660063every general on this board for games that are not gacha or weebslopmilsims: war thunder general, squad general, etc...shooters: codg, bfg, tf2g, cs general, etc...coop games: drgg, hd2g, and other games where people hate each other despite being a pve gameand other "masculine" "for guys only" "99% male playerbase" games
>>552658995I'd say like 70%, maybe 80% of the skins overall are good. A couple like Riot are objectively awful. Only retards complain about them because they're used to utter garbage. Fortnite tier shit to make you look like a retarded weeb or supersoldier or furry or whatever. It's been too long since we've had a game with some actual soul and people are scared of that
>>552660293>>552627965
>>552660326Honestly I respect them for following their vision even if I dislike a lot of the skins.
>>552660271yeah saw that happen. brand new player with red default jumper with no mic just runs into a building im looting, and keeps pointing his gun at me, and following me outside after im tryin to talk to himthen after warning him i turn a corner to get my gun out and hes already prefiring and i won the freekit stitcher-off with 5% health leftgod the pvp balance is ass.first shooter advantage works way too well for one party WANTING one interaction over the other. the>tensepart is man this guy could delete me in 1.5-2 seconds if he wanted too and i would be fucked and not that we might have a good battle or anything.

>>552658020It’s very telling when someone adamantly opposes longer ttk or faster healing. Both of these things would reduce the advantage gained by shooting first and camping a corner with third person peeking. It would instead place greater emphasis on consistently landing shots, movement, and effective use of utility items. Naturally, that is the last thing these low skill niggerfaggots want to happen. They play pvpve games like this purely because they get btfo in straight pvp games, the smaller the skill gap the better as far as they’re concerned.
>>552659641>I don't get to freefarm people with expensive loadouts who are just there trying to kill big arc and have fun, and don't give a fuck about pvp>waaaaaaaah
>>552660979Oh yeah forgot about that one. Really like the jacket
>>552659715that's disappointing, what is the meta for taking out the big arcs?
>>552661669wait until a retard who brought a hullcracker kills it and then kill him and loot the arc
>>552661169as much as you get met with >lol just go play helldiverscan be met with play any other sweaty 3rd person shooter that doesn't fuckin exist so we have to use a fps shooter game because those are the only games where balance can work. you can say fortnitethis is like playin a gimped ass fortnite with slow, deliberate actions and movement with somehow less TTK so yeah i assume sweaty gun niggers love this game because it's probably the least skilled one out of the bunch. not even going to get into things like trigger nades or how in general nothing is randomized so you can just go in with stitchers and trigger nades off the bat if you wanted.

>>552662281light impact grenades are fine? also are deadlines good? I have a lot of cash now
>>552662681If you want to kill a bastion easily you can shoot a leg off hitting the same yellow joint over and over with an anvil or ferro. Once the leg snaps the bastion is stunned for about 10 seconds giving you time to run up and deadline the core at the back for an instant kill

>>552665750>>552665874thisthey probably think seeker grenades are rare or worth a lot
>>552665976it's one of the "new" blueprints, and i have only ever seen them drop on stella, like deadlines, so they aren't super common yet

what's the best spot for farming fireball kills?
For me its the trailblazer, i threw 3 at a random team and they had no idea what the fuck was happening

>28 minutes on the clock >some guy already rushes to my spawn and starts blasting This shit will kill the game.
>>552668662that was me. gg anon
>>552668662The first wave of spawns are insanely close together in solos. Even on big maps I can consistently find people less than 15s in
>>552668624Kind of like an arpeggio. Not a great gun but certainly better than the fucking jupiter imo
>>552668850Insane how departure hatch and fuel control spawn basically has free dominion over launch tower loot. That place always rewards me well on cold snaps
>>552666928The tunnels between the areas are full of them, and not many raiders go down there. Other people usually just beeline to the high value loot areas on the surface.

is it even worth it to do the expedition? I started committing resources but fuck I'm already over level 40 now and found some good blueprints, i don't know if I feel like starting over again
>>552671841no it's not worth doing anything in this game because there is no pvp progression
>>552671841expeditions are explicitly for people who have hit level cap and started getting bored of the loop, to reset everything and get a few bonuses for doing soif you aren't even level 40 yet, fuck no you shouldn't do the expeditionluckily for you, progress toward the expedition carries over, so just keep tricking in resources as you play and eventually in another cycle or two you can decide if the +12 stash slots and +5 skillpoints are "worth it"
>>552669126>certainly better than the fucking jupiter imoPvpers do not know shit about pve. You all give stupid advice and takes on how to kill arc. Vg generals used to be filled with players who were above average. If you want advice you're better off looking up a youtube guide now or asking me.
I'm not playing this game but I'm in this thread lol
>>552672101vg never was filled with skilled peoplenobody here is willing to read a guide or watch a youtube guide because they all think they know better than some eceleb or tranny on gamefaqs/reddit/discord/any other website other than this one
>>552672101Id rather bring an equalizer over a jupiter if im going pve monging but even better id bring a showstopper and a fucking deadline for anything smaller than queens. Jupiter just sucks dick
Loadouts are such a bad idea, I can't imagine how that would make the game any better. Half the fun is navigating the menu as fast as possible, I don't get it
never stop begging for blueprints and trading
>>552672882the real tragedy is that somewhere out there, someone genuinely thinks this is true and they aren't even smart enough to know why that's a tragedy>>552673504those aren't even rare blueprints anon, but grats on getting 4 in a single run
>>552673742>those aren't even rare blueprints anonI'm still missing 32 blueprints after 80 hours, so yea, I'd say getting ones you need is pretty fucking rare. I have like 50 dupes in my stash I use for trades.
How often do the droprates change for purple guns & gear?I distinctly remember easily getting Tempests from supply drop terminals on Stella night, now all I get are Lvl1 blue or green guns, if any at all.
>>552673920that's honestly not bad progressI'm currently at 164hrs according to steam>>552674046still trying to get one of those, along with the aug that has a built in shield charger
Would've been a goated run if I got the survivor BP.

What map scares you the most?
>>552677848blue gate or stella
>>552677848I've been KOS'd more on Buried City than every other map combined. I don't think I've ever even seen PvP on Stella except for one desperate no-kitter who tried to beat me to death with his pick while I was helping kill the Bastion (the guy I was helping gunned him down before he'd even hit me twice)
>>552678378>>552678883Id say buried city for me. Oddly Dam seems to be taking its place as the most deadly map for me.
>don't shoot!>stands in my face with his gun outyou are not putting me at ease my guy

pussy
that one anon who said stella montis has everything you want, my old spring farming location has been replaced by a stella location
>>552685929Go for it. Ratkanda needs more anons with actual gear.
>>552687270Its a great place and theres plenty of off meta locations people ignore and I dont even know how many times I played before I discovered the ziplines in the cargo area.
I keep running out of metal parts
help someone kill a big enemy and take all the ARC performance steel. It's like 32 metal a stack and no one ever takes it
>kill a bastion>before I can reach it some shitter sprints up and loots all the cores>if I shoot him I get sent to the favela servers
>>552692648I would've shot him anyways. Dealing with the KOS servers for a little is worth it if you teach some retard a hard lesson
have they fixed the desynchave the fixed grey guns being the best optionhave the buffed shields
>>552692963yes to all
>>552692963no to all

>>552693472pvp players love easy pickings and don't expect you to actually fight back that's why they always drop their spaghetti whenever you blast them
>>552691512same here, I'm super bottlenecked on mechanical components right now
>>552692963>grey guns being the best optionTempest, Bobcat and Vulcano beat all grey guns easily.
You guys ever see the movie prospect? I need to play that soundtrack when Im in stella.
>>552693472I haven't pvped much in this game, but do you even really need good equipment for pvp? isn't a stitcher 1 with an extended mag good enough?
>>552694080Vulcano is the only one of those 3 that are a noticeable improvement over its lower tier counterpart. >Tempest is just a kettle on full auto, if you know how to click fast you get it as a kettle for absolutely 0 effort>bobcat is a stitcher that just fires faster, which is worse because if you miss any shots you are fucked
>>552694080>Tempest, Bobcatnopehttps://gofile.io/d/shauuPVulcano is maybe equal but the torro still remains the jiggle peak king compared to the torro
>>552694593Not for actually pvp. it's only good for ambushing. Guns need to be upgraded for actual real fights and squad battles.
>>552695150trvke. Solos is an unironic meme mode with zero credibility. Freekitters get absolutely raped against squads since they only have a single random gun (usually shit).
>>552695313even if they all had stitcher1s its dogshit because it has a slow reload. Most guns are terrible if they're not upgraded especially in team fights.
I'm gonna say itThe robot enemies are boring and uninspired
>>552695851I agree, they need to add some terminator-like robot shit to this game
>>552695851they insist upon themselves
shredders will escape stella montis and spawn on other maps any day now...
>>552695851the outdoor ones are cool but the indoor arc are so lame.
>>552694617>Tempest is just a kettle on full autoTempest with angled grip is the most accurate gun in the game. Kettle has a lot more spread and does bb gun damage against Arc. Unless you running up right in someone's face Tempest is much more reliable at any range and situation.>bobcat is a stitcher that just fires fasterI'm almost sure it has higher DPS than stitcher
>>552696242you don't like a random assortment of balls and maybe a turret?
>>552660981drop your embark id and I'll drop it for you. if you still have the osprey BP, I can use another for my friend.
>>552696369>I'm almost sure it has higher DPS than stitcherA gun is more than just a DPS on a spreadsheet. It is why every good player carries the torro instead of the vulcano in pvp.
>finally find a grenadier with the right loadout>some rat nigger kills me while I'm trying to get the single core I need to upgradeI hope you get ass cancer
>>552697043works for me, cheersSushibandit#0961
>>552696369The minor improvements over their grey counterparts are not worth the huge difference in effort it takes to get the purple guns.
>>552698094>hitting a single secure locker>huge effort
>>552697652that was me. gg anon
>>552698175The real effort is to use these piece of shit instead of selling/scrapping them for useful shit like nades/expedition/more stitchers
>got sent to ratkanda for defending myselfHow long does this last? Shit's unplayable
>>552698358Just stand in the middle of stella montis and let people send you back to chungartha
>>552698358If you go in naked and just surrender a few times it puts you back in faggotland
my mfw when some sped with a stitcher one and a basic green augment get's pissy at me because he lost the fight he initiated
>rank 23>6 hours lefthow are you guys doing? are you all on the sweat leaderboards and dont give a fuck?
>>552699101As long as I make it to daredevil by the end of the season I'm good
>>552699264that's what I'm going for too
>>552699101Don't give a fuck. I'm seeded in WCII and don't even really want the new skin offering. I'm not the only one. 3 starring all of your trials is basically enough to keep your rank, even on my super sweaty leaderboard. I'll probably keep 3 starring them for lulz and hope I don't drop too hard. If I need to sweat a little the last week or so, I might do it just to do it, but I did not enjoy sweating it out last season (or not playing the game to game the bracket.) I'll do what's fun this season. The new alpino skin looks alright, but I wouldn't wear it over the patrol outfit's bubble butt.
>>552699101I just 3 star the easiest ones to fish for blueprints
Which streamer are we watching tonight?
>>552691512start killing arc/looting probes/couriers for arc alloy metal and recycle them
idk what to do now
They need to add augment which eats 50 damage when shot in the back because there's literally no counter against rats at the moment.
>>552701039go up yellow and put points in hte left side roll stamina node
>>552699101still in Tryhard I but not trying very hard, gnomesayin?
>>552672101no matter how much you like to seethe about pvp, the unique overpenetration feature will never be a saving grade for jupiter because the damage is still fucking 55.
>>552701268Just play stealthy
>>552701624I'm not going to explain why the Jupiter is so heckin valid, because you would already know if you could afford to field one, which means you're a rat nigger, and I don't want to encourage you to try stealing them. I just want you to know that you are retarded.
niggas will sneed about TTK but refuse to use anything other than a looting augment
>>552701641I'm thinking about quitting the game honestly. Kind of getting fed up playing against bunch of backstabbing pussies. Maybe Marathon will be better at this.
>>552701947probably because shields sucks and barely make a difference in TTKwelcome to 2 months ago arguments
>>552701881I have used jupiters for at least 15 raids you fucking faggot, I know that the damage stacks from overpenetration, it still doesn't justify the cost you fucking niggerIt's great against lower-tier ARC, but at that point you can just get an anvil and shoot twice instead of once.For rocketeers you can use any weapon with high projectile velocity to stun it to death.For medium arc like bomb/bast you can use a fucking kettle because the joints are extremely easy to hit and then just kite to the back and nuke the shit.For bosses the garbage is fucking useless because the damage/durability is DOGSHITYOU ARE A NIGGER
>>552701947>tanks 4 extra stitcher bullets>also makes you 15% slower so you get hit 10 more times insteadNigga never used a heavy shield.I would say it's useful if it had 100 shield capacity so you can tank a trigger nade, but no, it's shit.
>>552701947Ok let me switch to another and then survive one whole bullet longer
>>552701947the entire point of having a longer TTK is to give you the ability to make at least one big mistake so you can always have a chance recover or at least be actionable in a fightputting on a heavy shield doesn't stop you from getting beamed because the 0.1s difference it provides is still inactionable you fucking cunt
augs that let you equip stronger shields should also increase your health
>>552703591You can do literally the same thing just by buffing the deflection % of shields instead of fucking up the healing economy
>>552701881NTA, but can it shoot through cover/walls?if not it's worthless >>552701947looter3 can use medium shields, what the fuck are you on about>wow 0.001s longer TTK compared to lightit's fucking nothing retard
>>552703970>NTA, but can it shoot through cover/walls?>if not it's worthlessIt can't he's just coping. The main feature is that it completely ignores ARC armor without damage loss also penetrating multiple parts and stacking damage so you can directly damage the cores of ARC.The problem is that the damage is still 55 and your rate of fire is abysmal. It's almost never worth it.
>all energy weapons should ignore arc armor>>552704154I'm familiar with its behavior against arc, but was hoping it may have a niche pvp usecase too, oh well
it's good you can't see player names until post game because i would 100% flatline every 'mohammad' i catch in the wild
Dying twice in a row has helped my inventory issues holy shit bless up
>>552704324>but was hoping it may have a niche pvp usecaseYou can 2-tap a heavy shield into the head compared to other options like anvil/osprey, but have you seen a heavy shield user recently? I sure as fuck didn't.the projectile speed also sucks balls when this shit is essentially a railgun.
wtfI guess this guy just crawled too hard? he had survivor and hullcracker IV and an anvil and completely unlootedduring spaceport dayand he was headed to the right extraction
>>552699101I stopped caring and now just do enough for 3 stars to get a chance at a BP.
looking for a tempest BP, got surv3 to tradealso looking for the minigun energy weapon BP>>552704371get them to mic up and you can see them in area voice>>552704564could have gotten splashed by a rocketeer or bombard maybe, or just gave up after crawling for 5 minutes
>>552704564survivor crawling is boring as fuck and takes forever. It sounds like a cool trick until you actually do it
why am I a faggot that wants the official merch
i am but a humble farmer
>>552705034I guessjust surprised because it was literally a straight line to the extract from where he wasyou can see his dead body there, I didn't even notice until I looted the surveyor that died on it, I thought I accidentally killed him somehow before watching the clip
i swear the rocketeer is getting smarter
Do the nigger devs have any actual real long-term plan? I've got almost every blueprint and gun and there doesn't seem to be anything worthwhile to chase. Like there are multiple ways they could increase the longevity of this game but I'm almost 100% sure that anything they're gonna add is just going to be a grind.>>552704371>because i would 100% flatline every 'mohammad' i catch in the wildCome at me bro.
>>552705872I hate how often I'm trying to hide around the corner and it just gets the perfect shot off anyway, not like shooting inside the room and the explosion hits me, like I'm 99% hidden and it finds the one little crack in the window or looking through a door and hitting me that waylike god damn
People running survivor and downed talents are fucking stupid and insane it takes you 25 minutes of crawling and waiting to escape with your current inventory meanwhile you can max out mobility and run cautious augment and extract 2-3 times in that timeAww yeah this is peak gameplay hiding in a bush for 13 minutes for my hp to regenerate so i can escape with my unmodded venator 2 at 23/110
>>552706062>downed talentstrios
>>552706062Then don't use it god damn, but I've extracted hundreds of times using it
>have level 4s vulcano and tempest>enter town hall first of my team 27 min in>in 2 seconds im lit up from 3 directions and my teammates are melted as they follow me inMy first time even seeing tempest in the game was tonight and I lost it the following raid. Where is the tempest bp guys?
>>552706062don't care, still using it
>>552706062they're specifically for group play, dumbassthe longer you can live while downed and the further you can get without getting perma-knocked, the more likely it is for your team to get you back up

>>552712305yes
Im thinking of finally getting this. I have 3 friends that play. I really dont like extraction shooters because I hate PvP. I will literally never attack someone first. Is the ABMM in this as strong as people claim where I can PvE most of the time?
>>552712305>Did they read the game description before they bought it?They give it credit only when it benefits them. See Helldivers 2 chimpniggers whining that they should have "overpowered weapons" while conveniently ignoring "overwhelming odds" literally on the box of the game written just a sentence over.

>>552713090>I really dont like extraction shooters because I hate PvP. I will literally never attack someone first. Is the ABMM in this as strong as people claim where I can PvE most of the time?It is very strong. You will be mixed into random lobbies for the first handful of matches but never shoot back and die. You will quickly be placed into the carebear lobbies.
>>552611908But hes right. Letting someone just kill you in a PvP game is moronic. I get not wanting to shoot first but you should always defend yourself.
>>552713589ok
>>552658364It goes against the very nature of the genre. If the ABMM is this aggressive they might as well just implement a PvE and PvP mode since 99% of the time its already akin to it.
>>552713589its a gameand no i wont defend myselfI'll get sent to friendly pve lobbies where I continue playing the game how I want toand you will get sent to KOSistan and shit your pants nobody is easy to kill anymore
>>552658364In a world where gear matter yeah, you could just farm free shit in chungartha and then dunk on people with your OP gearBut in the current state where nothing matter? it's irrelevant

>>552701947Niggers have been here trying to defend the atrocious ttk from the very first time they emptied a stitcher into some chungus and he dropped in ~1 second. Every single time you get absolutely btfo, but keep crawling back for more. The only use case for a medium shield is to survive 1 more shot from ferro/anvil. There is no real use case for a heavy shield, much like there is no real use case for gay little nigger boys like (You)
>>552715437Are those not the same?
>>552715553longtime rust player here, the ttk in arc is astonishingly long and forgiving. every gun in this feels weak to me
>>552714303yes it does lol. I don't give a fuck what they say. they also said they just put out the aggression mm recently but it's been there
>>552714303citation neededthat's not what happens in my experienceeven if I just leave the dude DBNO, killing someone that jumps me always results in a noticeable increase in teh number of aggressive/kos players in the next handful of games
>>552716278No dude the TTK is low because people hit "don't shoot" then get full magged in the back while looting
If they up the TTK (and actually nerf the trigger nades well) it would be an overall good thing for solos and a pretty good thing for duos. But what about Trios? The reviving is really fast in this game. I've seen Trio fights that can last several minutes depending on location, utility, etc even with the shitty TTK. But I've also seen Trio fights end in seconds (mostly due to trigger nades). Now honestly I prefer solos, I hate when games pander to friendslop balancing because it's impossible to find people around your level of skill who also can play at the exact times that you do unless you are a highschooler/young adult neet who has a bunch of colleagues/friends from school who all play and also have like 8 different discord communities they are apart of. I'm 30. The only discord I've ever been in was a WoW guild years ago when discord was new and killed skype. None of them are playing. My 5-6 friends I have, only 1 plays but he works nights so he's never around. And not a single person I work with plays games other than normie shit like cod/fifa/pokemon except one 50 year old dude who plays strategy war games and civ exclusively. But I do know a significant amount of people play Trios every day, the reason the game is huge on twitch is because of Trios. How would a slower TTK affect those fights? Could they adjust reviving in response?
>>552716278>rust>ttk is 0.2s>ARC ttk feels longNo shit sherlock, yet a 0.7-1s ttk is still not enough for a single guaranteed big mistake to allow for retaliation and deeper combat than "land 2 headshots" or "magdump before the guy turns around".Low TTK is universally garbage because every encounter turns into infohogging and shooting first, especially in games that are designed around higher stakes.Siege is just straight up dogshit because of this even despite trying to add depth to combat beyond info gathering because "just shooting the guy" is always 500% more efficient than everything else you can do.
>>552716278>Rust player doesnt understand why short TTK is bad in a 3rd person shooterchecks out
>>552716594It's mainly gonna be unchanged beyond fights being slightly skewed towards resource exhaustion and combined fire and/or coordinated pushing.It's gonna be fine.
I’m feeling the fatigue of this game. Money lousily spent I’m already tired of it.
>5 jolt mines and a snaphook blueprint in the same EM Storm fuck's sake>>552715553heavy shield is great on buried shitty and stella, in group playI wouldn't ever use it in solo unless I was larping as heavy weapons guy in stella with a torrente and 600 rounds of ammo>>552716594then slow down revives - make defibs take a solid 8 seconds so people can no longer "combat res" to offset the increased TTKs and also make survivor and the DBNO nodes more valuable
>>552717125>game about loot>loot is actually worthless lmao>0 end gameYeah, it was a pretty impulsive purchase in hindsight. Although you can't really know if the game has a good end-game or a solid gameplay loop until you've played it for a while, so refunds are out of the question.

below level 25 freekits can remain unlimitedbelow level 50 they should have a cooldown or limit of something like 5 per dayat level 75 you should only get 1 freekit per dayat high levels you're an "experienced" raider and should have a stash of your own shit to use instead of abusing speranze welfare >>552718060makes senseI've got an extra if you're online tomorrow evening and still need itit's absolutely goated on ferro, osprey, and renegade>>552717270>loot is actually worthless lmaothis is legit the worst part about gear progression being a flat linenobody has any reason to use "better" stuff because it's not actually "better" in meaningful ways that offset the resource costI can only imagine that even dedicated pvpers/pkers get tired of seeing 9/10 corpses having ferro/stitcher/kettle and/o being a freekit
>>552718652Matchmaking is part of the problem as well despite people here seething over the idea of mixed lobbies, nerf freekits and you just get people doing naked runs until they're in chungartha and can loot back up safely.
>>552717846meanwhile you shitposters don't even play the game
>>552718652You have to understand that the type of person who treats this like a PvP game does not have any gear or any moneyYou are basically saying>yeah once you are level 75 you just aren't allowed to play the game anymoreThese people don't have coins or gear of their own, they kill and steal "better gear" and then immediately extract and sell itIt wouldn't change anything for people who engage in the PvE since most people bring their own kits anyway, but for the other side of the playerbase that only casually engages in PvP by freekitting, they'd just quit when they see>oh I can only queue 5 freekits a day>well fuck this game
>>552718885NTA but why do you keep making things up in your head?
>>552718652>below level 25 freekits can remain unlimited>below level 50 they should have a cooldown or limit of something like 5 per day>at level 75 you should only get 1 freekit per day>at high levels you're an "experienced" raider and should have a stash of your own shit to use instead of abusing speranze welfareI think the easy accessibility to freekits should remain, they should also not be restricted to a single weapon like hairpin to have at least some variety. But, they should undoubtedly change focus from being braindead shift+w machines to a loot focused desperation option, disadvantaged for everything but getting you on your knees again.Lvl1 greys should be shit, no safe pocket, one weapon slot, grey shield just to prevent oneshots from high-damage weaponry and a 16-slot inventory with minimal healing and no offensive utility (defensive shit like blockers/barricades/gas mines could be ok).>I've got an extra if you're online tomorrow evening and still need itMaybe if the time allows it, I'm not sure. Thanks for the offer regardless.>this is legit the worst part about gear progression being a flat line>nobody has any reason to use "better" stuff because it's not actually "better" in meaningful ways that offset the resource cost>I can only imagine that even dedicated pvpers/pkers get tired of seeing 9/10 corpses having ferro/stitcher/kettle and/o being a freekitI do alot of trio pvp and yes, I am very tired to bring medium shield + a fucking kettle because that combo is factually superior to the 20 bobcats and stacks of heavy shields and augments lying around with no use.I am equally as tired when 80% of people I kill are freeniggers and the other 15% are discount freeniggers with kits sometimes even cheaper than free and the last 5% bringing in actual kits so I can have a drawn out fight (assuming we don't get spammed with triggers to death).It's pretty tiresome.
>>552719160because you'll disingenuously shitpost like some complete moron
>>552719374the irony lol
>>552719547that I think you are a troll because you cant read the context of someone elses post?
>>552719160>almost 290 hours of nothing but opening containersYou shouldn't be allowed to have an opinion on any facet of the game besides that specific thing.>>552719112Which is the entire reason PvP players want better gear balance to improve PvE engagement for gear and also providing the defenders with better loot on a success and greater success chances against freekits, your point is incomprehensible.Freekits of this power level in an extraction shooter are fundamentally broken.
>>552719725Yeah but the devs are freeshitters and unironically play the game to kill pvers with "better loot" because they think it's fun
>>552719820Grim
>>552719659>can't readAnon, I think you should have stopped there, assuming he has the ability to comprehend context is an insult to people who can.
>>552719112If they're constantly taking and selling other people's gear, they can afford to start buying gear from vendors once they hit level cap. Or they can start holding onto some of those kits they loot to actually use.Oh no, at some point the poor misunderstood freeshitter KOStard has to actually start trying not to lose their kit every round instead of holding W and clicking every time they see another player, what a shame
>>552719659No, you're just a huge autistic faggot that posts the same clips over and over, save that one I guess
>>552720414i didn't post the clip schizo

Is tonight the schizo meetup or something?
>>552721551>meetupFat chance it's a single guy, actually.
Makes sense all the pvpniggers are brownoids
>>552718816>Matchmaking is part of the problem as well despite people here seething over the idea of mixed lobbiesWhy do you care if pve players are in your lobby or not?
>>552722103Woah there buddy, stop asking those sorts of questions. It is NOT because they want easy pickings of people to kill.
>Gingy gifted 300 subs>I didn't get one
>>552722103>Why is an abusable system that lets people stuff their pockets for hours bad Gee idk

You have no fucking clue what you're mouthing off about and have been repeating the most blatantly wrong shit for months.The PvP squad lobbies do not carry all green shields and Grey guns. The better teams are nearly all running medium shields, with level 4 venators, renegades, toros, trigger nades, bobcats, vulcans, tempest, etc.Shut up and at least try playing the game and getting good at it.
>>552722454lootgoblin game
>>552723140>Anon calling for freekits to be nerfed>Call out that solves nothing because people can just get a million from pve only lobbies in an hour>People seetheSorry you can't make the connection since you're brown
>>552714238got one here in Stella Montisand then the other from 3* trial
>>552723051I watch pvp streamers all the time and i never see anything but venator, toros stitcher kettles and sometimes tempests/renegades. bobcat is legit worse than a stitcher.
real (rus)nigger hours
I like my seeker nades. Although they are overpowered for the cost still.
are we getting a store update tonight?
>>552723193>Call out that solves nothing because people can just get a million from pve only lobbies in an hournta, but freekits and gear progression is the entire reason PvE carebears seethe, they can't defend themselves from swarthes of brownoids because they get no advantage for the investmentThat needs to be fixed first if we want to remove the abusable MM and introduce people to at least some PvP here and there.
do you think ukraine/russia war survivors get ptsd from this games enemies kek
>>552724178>no kamikaze dronesDoubt desu
>>552724171Almost like there's many issues in the game I'm just commenting on one of them, gear progression is an issue too and a very bad one.
>>552724592Everything is interconnected after all.
>>552722454>Why is an abusable system that lets people stuff their pockets for hours badWhy does that matter to you if you're never going to see or interact with them lol? You are the mother fucking loot police.
>>552724359Yeah they put that on the indoor balls. If they had it on flying drones people would definitely draw a connection
I wish the deploy loadout screen had a little 'craft ammo for chosen weapons' button or someshit so I didn't have to go back 3 menus to do it myself
>>552724678Because it's a PvPvE game that should balance interactions (the core fucking strength of the entire game) and not go into retarded hyper-polarized bullshit that diminishes emergent gameplay possibilities and births niggers like you making shit suggestions.It can be an adjustable slider with "a bit more aggressive lobbies" and "a bit less aggressive lobbies" but it should never be a singular extreme.
>chungartha stella montis night>helping two guys find shredders and fireballs for their trials>have a great time and prob one of the comfiest and most fun lobbies in a while>poopskins will never know this feel
>>552725120I know that feel after running like 6 friendly loot runs lol
>>552725120mostly ive met hella cool people who will point me the way for a quest or help me when Im down, but it disarms me when I see some agro bitch and they always get me by surprise
>>552725050>It can be an adjustable slider with "a bit more aggressive lobbies" and "a bit less aggressive lobbies" but it should never be a singular extreme.But it's not that. So why do you need that? You're placed into the lobby you fit in with.
Because the PvPers can abuse it too so the economy and looting is out of whack?
They really upped ARC aggressiveness didn't they?It's so obvious too, they spawn and actively go where you're hiding. The Bombardier doesn't even need the spotters to precisely bomb you inside of a building. Wasps start shooting much earlier than before. Pops jump up and roll at you at lightning speed.Motherfuckers.
>>552725572Because the game needs both player types in moderation if it wants to keep whatever social magic it has and is currently fading due to lobby polarization.Also this >>552725612; If and when the issue of gear balance will be fixed it should be made logical that the current system is abusable and ruins the gameplay loop as well as the economy.Lobby polarization in combination with shit balance leads to reduced amount of content, which is easily observable where chung lobbies are nothing but container opening and vacuum sims and kos lobbies are nothing but freenigger or trigger nade spam.Do I really have to explain such simple concepts coming from elementary foresight?
>>552725763>Devs making sure that the PvE doesn't remain braindeadGood.
>>552724178Lel. It is pretty insensitive to modern warfare.
>>552725763There was one anon or podcaster hoping the Arc would go Overclocked mode for Cold Snap, and kinda wish they just did that. Just openly say all Arc are faster on Cold Snap but I guess they wanted it across the board and stealthy. It's always annoying with ongoing games that you can set it down for a month and come back to not get the same experience yoy paid for but eh, not so bad. I'll complain when they make it too easy.
get your last minute trials rankings in boys
>>552726716cant wait to see how I have to play the game this weekhope we don't have another farmable trial, I might skip it and see if it puts me on easier leaderboards
reminder to log off for the next several days
>>552727073you can still play the gameyou just have to do it in a different way, like I didn't take a gun or enter any buildings with fireballs for like 4 days
>>552727073Welp time to stop playing the game, see you guys on Thursday evening.
>>552725974>Because the game needs both player types in moderation if it wants to keep whatever social magic it has and is currently fading due to lobby polarization.Buddy why do you care if there's polarization? It doesn't matter. You'll never see them and they'll never see you. Just have fun in your pvp lobbies lil bro.
>>552727442It's fucking insane to me that this guy keeps going on about needing to kill pve players
"people" in this general can't read
There's a schizo in here whose brain has been completely fried by /pol/ and I really wish he'd either die or just go away.
>>552727442>why do youI just fucking explained it to your retard ass, can you comprehend written english?
Just ragebaited myself thinking about the possibility that Embark nerfs the snaphook safe pocket tech next patch
>>552728149idk why they would, you do the same thing with any good itemsnaphookvitasprayeven photoelectric cloak and blue healing items sometimesheck I put my launcher ammo in it and that somehow stopped people from shooting me in the back(turns out theres a hack that lets you see other peoples inventory value)
>>552728309That just gives them more incentive to nerf safe pocket cheese
>>552714303>in chungartha trios (and solo) for a long time>trigger nade a room full of niggers>instantly put into ratkandaEvery single time, game does not fucking care who shot first.
>>552727073I just have to ignore trials or it'll be a constant core of my play sessions. Trios mixed with solos is a clownshow.
>people suddenly care about the leaderboard
>>552729260>suddenly?
when does the store update
>>552729260>>suddenlypeople have been bitching nonstop
>Nerf freekits>People just do naked runs and game the matchmaking so they can loot up>Buff good gear >People will just rat more since extraction points incentivize people and have a blaring alarm telling you "THIS FAGGOT IS LEAVING"I don't know a lot of shit needs to be done in this game, honestly this might sound like a crazy idea but I think hatch keys should be buffed to be cheaper, they aren't THAT expensive but it'd be nice for them to be easier to craft
>>552729505They need to be usable at night, literally the only time you would want to use one
>>552729505Also to add onto this I don't see why you should get a safe pocket if you're butt ass naked, just a cheesy playstyle overall and should be nerfed
>>552729505>people will rat moreI doubt itratting will be less effective without gear>rats will bring more gearbut thats a good thing, they're risking more than just a free kit
>>552729802Even if good gear is buffed this power fantasy where your average person will be able to turn on their aggressor and insta gape them is not likely, honestly maybe healing should all be instant and just have a cooldown. I think it'd lead to more fun fights for the PvPers as well and work better in a scenario where gear is buffed.
>>552728309I think he moreso means the >snap>roll>put snaphook back into ass while you are flying>end up with weapon out ready to shootConsidering they nerfed slide rolling I could see them doing this.
>>552730173oh yea, I didn't even know about that until peanut was spamming about it on stream
>>552729936That would make too much sense. Clearly the current system where you can defib someone to 50 health in 1.5 seconds, but a vita shot takes 4 seconds to restore 50 health is superior. Christ I hate the Swedes at embark.
>Gingy saying the trials are bad for the community>everyone should be able to earn the rewards>and doesn't incentivize farming and cheating a high scoreYESI HOPE THIS CATCHES ON
>>552730246The only alternative that good players utilize is something like>Herbal into vita shot>Green recharge into surgeBut realistically it should all be instant healing with like half the use time with CD so people have a fighting chance. Makes fights more fun and dynamic but also benefits friendlier players that get jumped so they can actually turn on their attacker easily, but yes not likely to happen because the devs are fumbling nonstop. Can't even nerf egregious cancer so I doubt they'll actually rework these mechanics unfortunately.
>>552730519I LOVE GINGY
great another week of exploiting>damage snitches>damage bastions>search supply drops>harvest plantsat least that's all easy to ignore, hope you guys harvested all your great mullen before this week>SNOWBALLS AT BASTIONSmight just skip this one and see if it puts me on a seperate leaderboard, because that rocketeer one was so unfun
>>552730834>>552730834>>552730834move when ready
>>552730173>>552730224https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Ja922SyEZt4Yeah it's kind of nuts. I hope they do fix it, because it seems unintended and pretty broken. Although I don't agree with them nerfing sliding and slide rolling so hard. Being able to shoot while flying through the air is way stronger than having a good roll after a slide.
>>552730519Shroud already said he hated the trial system so much he decided to just not do it like weeks ago.
