>>553375582First
Not everyone who kills you is a rat.
>>553375719Hey Reddit
>>553375147because no one is going to fucking dox you from a game name
>>553375932They could hack my steam account. This is 4chan.
>>553364195On a cold-snap Dam BG go up to the control tower with a sniper, bunch of ammo, and a hatch key. You can reach the small island hatch in the red lake-thingy if you use both ropes down in about ~1 minute.You can get ~15k snitcher points if you can aim. I cant aim...>>553375932What a faggot.
chungus lobbies suck assthey have bizarre vibes, they're boring, and the obligation of trust makes it 10x worse when you do get PvP'd
>>553375932>I dont know where Im posting.It shows, maybe not /here/, but /vg/ have some extreme mentally unstable people, dont know why you are so upset that anons try to be anons here.
>>553376570Just kill people in them. >b-but then I will get sent to the favelas!If you load into a run naked, immediately give up, and do that 5 times you are right back in the chungus lobbies.
>>553376352I think I'm good just getting +1 promotionI hate shooting snitches, somehow my bullets go through them or something
>>553375582You will never be a real extraction shooter. You have no chase, you have no progression, you have no thrill. You are a battle royale twisted by persistent loot and PvE into a crude mockery of Escape from Tarkov. All the praise you get is uninformed and half-hearted. Genre veterans are bored and unimpressed, "fans" play 2 hours a week and don't know any better.Power gamers are already done with you. Thousands of hours in other games have allowed nolifers to abuse bad design choices with incredible efficiency. Even aspects that “work" look half-assed and flawed to anyone who has played a videogame before. Your risk-reward structure is a dead giveaway. And even if you manage to get a million normies to buy in, they'll turn tail and bolt the second you attempt to require some effort in order to try and give your game longevity.You will never last. You wrench out a shitty cosmetic every single week and tell yourself it’s going to be ok, but deep inside you feel irrelevance creeping up like a weed, ready to crush you under the unbearable weight.Eventually the honeymoon will be over - casuals will move on to the next shiny thing, nolifers will get bored. Nexon will put you on life support, relieved that they no longer have to put actual money into the game's development. They’ll milk whoever's left with increasingly predatory MTX, and the fanboys will keep pretending this game is some sort of underrated gem, just like they do with The Finals. Your playerbase will decay and go to 10-20k, and all that will remain of your legacy is a skeleton that is unmistakably shit.This is your fate. This is what you chose. There is no turning back.
>>553376175You wouldn't get it.
>>553376570Just kill people then?
>>553375932My friend once got his family harrassed for a few hours by phone because he used the same name in too many online profiles and somebody mad at him from a League of Legends match found his home phone number(This was back when home phones were a thing)
>>553376570Down people with headshots as they're exfilling. Time it so it's just when they finish the animation on e.g. the metro, then unload a powerful opener onto them that downs them. You didn't cause them any real harm and it counts toward your matchmaking.
I've been playing for 4 hours and couldn't extract even once. Too many sweaty players already.
Okay, Im done. Hope I can get into a comfy lobby next Thursday, not doing trials on Monday/Tuesday really makes things easy.
>>553376845no, I'm pretty sure I get it. conflict-averse autists, bots, and players with the MtF voice filter all collect at the bottom of matchmaking to create an uneventful bottom-feeder ecology where there are no winners or losers. everyone gets the repetitive dull dopamine hit that comes with finding blueprints that you already own
>>553376994If this was a game where usernames were static, sure. But they can be changed at will and they don't even have to be unique.
>>553378058you can only change it once every 30 days
>>553378058Whats easier retardbro, changing your name every time you post, or just fucking pressing two extra buttons to censor yourself out?
Schizos out in full force tonight
>spent the last 2000 hours with zero PvP gameplay>don’t shoot nobody, nobody shoot me>all living happily together in Chungartha, not a care in the world besides those pesky ARC>lost track of the last time I used the ‘don’t shoot’ emote, everyone is running around without a weapon equipped >still having fun, still having a blast>seems like hundreds of thousands of others are also having fun and having a blast tooum, hold up, I thought the devs said they added PVP because just PVE was too boringwere they wrong?
>try blueprint farmingdamn this is more boring than chungartha
>>553378662I think they were, but at the same time maybe the whole>friendliest commuity evar!!!!brought more people in than marketing it straight as a PvE game like monster hunter but with robots
>>553378662>were they wrong?It's only not boring if you're actually autistic and enjoy repetitive collecting while fighting dumb AI enemies. Any full Chungarthan is 100% guaranteed to be on some mental medications and has an 85% chance of having some form of autism. 63% play as the girl as well. I ran the numbers.
>open arg>the one ass blasted pvpautist still angry people enjoy pve lobbies still posts hereAll is good
>>553377826>conflict-averseAs I predicted: you don't get it, and wouldn't if it was explained to you
I think the best lobbies are the limbo between Chungartha and Ratkanda, half of the players being KOS niggers, the other half some of the most scared, run away on sight Chungarthans.
>>553379948Many of us are quite openly saying we don't enjoy PvE lobbies. I would like them to remove the present matchmaking system>>553380059This, although a little less than half KoSers
>>553380128>many>weThe voices in your head arent people
>>553379961>if I don't actually say anything, I will seem mysterious!nah bro you're just autistic>>553380128>Many of us are quite openly saying we don't enjoy PvE lobbies. I would like them to remove the present matchmaking systembottom-rung PvE lobbies should be 10% random players to keep things exciting
>>553380128>Many of us are quite openly saying we don't enjoy PvE lobbies.You dont need to be in them tho? You can literally play this game without ever knowing about Chungartha.Redditors got mind broken by 100% confirming its existence, why?My only gripe about the current matchmaking is the very thin line between the two lobbies, its hard to find this >>553380059.
>be wildcard 3>wait until friday at 2pm to start>first place is 30k >fast forward to now>first place is 175kfuck me, i waited too late and got the other metagamers. next time ill do thursday night
>>553380470>You dont need to be in them tho?if you don't explicitly rat and KoS you will constantly end up here
>>553380707Rather that than some shithole
>>553380707My personal experience is 8 games extracting to go from kosistan to chungartha without shooting at or defending myself at all. No dying either. If you cant kos someone in 8 games thats fucking crazy
>>553380707This is false tho, you run into some retard from time to time, if you defend yourself you dont fall into deep Chungartha.
schizos are kinda full of themselves aren't theywho the fuck would expend the effort to target them specifically. most of them are useless fucks that live off the government anyway
why did the mods purge the entire last thread?
>>553381227it was all the same person
>>553375932I bet you don't even remove social tracking on your links from youtube when you share videos to your friends, lazy ass.1 second of work to save everyone trouble.
>>553378662Some of the devs are bloodthirsty soys that are bored of living in Sweden without niggers to stress them or have exciting hobbies.It's like living in one of the greatest nations in the world but being told you need to go to some trash heap and appreciate defeated people and give them money.
>>553380952if you:>focus on positioning>refuse to engage in seal clubbing and extract camping>avoid bad fights>loot quickly>raider hatch extractthen it's really easy to breeze through map after map with no violenceI want to be placed in lobbies full of murderers because that's fun. The ABMM system is really annoying because if I play carefully and safely, every match will be consecutively less fun than the last until I'm playing with teletubbies
>>553381798Brave does it automatically
>steam forums: OMG ADD LGBTQ AND A PVE MODE NOOWWWW!>reddit: erm chungus sisters do you like my tattoo? also rescue raiders represent, i love you all and you're great people besides the fascists of course. pvpers are fascists actually.>4channel: SCHIZOS. SCHIZOS EVERYWHERE. NOW HERES MY DOGSHIT IDEA TO MAKE THE GAME BETTER BUT IM ACTUALLY AUTISTIC SO MY IDEAS ARE NEEDLESSLY COMPLEX AND RETARDED. ALSO DID I MENTION SCHIZOS?!?!Is there anywhere cool to discuss this game holy shit.
>>553382310yeah, with your irl friends
>>553382112Then kill some people for fun to get your fun lobbies. Its easier to sleep into kosistan than it is to stay in chungartha with active effort you dont want to apply.
>>553382418They were gonna buy it on their PS5s and we were all supposed to play together but they forgot.
>>553380128This delulu
>>553382476I shouldn't need to play some bizarre metagame just to get into interesting matches. I should be able to play the game as I see fit without worrying if I'm being too sneaky and ruining the tension for myself.
>>553382310>SCHIZOS. SCHIZOS EVERYWHERETo be fair, thats only one anon ITT who for some reason is malding about people hiding their name.
>>553383269there's also a /pol/ schizo that's obsessed with trannies
>>553382310>4chan hacked and down>hackers reveal data showing over 70% of the trash filth posted is from israel using vpns and india shillsAt least you can be mostly honest itt and not get banned but have to have people shitting in the pool
>>553383574>obsessed with tranniesThey are everywhere, rent-free roaming all the boards on the chans.
im pretty newish, like 50 hours in. I have some farming routes down but I cant execute them because I keep getting spawned in at like 17-20 mins on the timer. is this normal?
>>553383954yes. if you spawn in at 17 minutes that's a license to kill, go extract camp someone instead of trying to pick through the scraps
>>553384080i've done my fair share of ratting and pvp-ing in other pvpve games. I'm mostly playing this pve because of the abmm crap. my last 4 games were apparently late spawns because I left early.
>>553383954>I keep getting spawned in at like 17-20 mins on the timer. is this normal?yup. sometimes the game fucks you like that.
>solo stella>3 people are teamed up and going around killing people>they see me and start charging and shooting right at me>take them out with trigger nades>they spend 2 minutes crying and shitting their pants about trigger nades>while they are teaming in solosThis game actually makes me extremely violent and racist. I fucking hate the niggers who play this
>>553383761yeah but being triggered by someone just playing a female character is schizo behavior
>>553384624>they spend 2 minutes crying and shitting their pants about trigger nadesMusic to my ears, I always go in with two stacks of trigger nades. Kettle macro is the line for me.>>553384769Ignore and go on Anon, life is too short to get stuck on this.
>finally get unlooted coldsnap hospital>trigger grenade blueprint:)
>call someone a schizo fag for blocking out all names on a leaderboard>nutjobs go on about it for hourslmao
>>553380470>its hard to find thisI've gotten placed in that sweet spot a few times by doing KoS + Immediate Defib runs in Chungartha beforehand. I think reviving people lowers whatever your aggression rating is so you can use it to be more precise
>>553380059These are the solo lobbies I get after a few rounds of duos/trios with friends.
>>553375582What the hell happened in the last thread
>>553385204>>553381161>>553378487You can stop now, Anon. Why are you so assblasted about this?
>>553383139And i dont really care to have kosfags in my lobbies so get to enjoy not having them.
I swear to god I fucking hate these PvP players FUCK!
I let my nigger instincts act up... I'm sorry raidersI saw a chungarthian killing a bastion without a care in the world, and I couldn't resist lighting him up...epic loot, I must sayI'm so sorry
>>553383954If I get 3 late spawns in a row then I freekit / naked run it and suicide on late spawn. You can’t let them get away with wasting too much of your time.
>>553385632at least you know you're a nigger
>>553385694I'm assuming you're doing that to trick the mm. can you explain the logic?
>>553385578but if I have to shoot people to get out of weenie hut junior, then that means you have a kosfag in your lobby.and I have gotten some very negative feedback from players that I've blasted for this exact reason
>>553385632he should've watched his back. that's the problem with PvE lobbies, they teach people all the wrong lessons
>>553385814No, I do it so that if I get a late spawn I can suicide since I don’t have any gear I care about.
>>553386013oh. I can't do that. most of my routes revolve around hatch keys :(
>>553385567only two of those are mine
>>553386096Then just naked runs and stick the key up your pooper
>>553375582wait.. what the fuck happened?
>>553386370ah I see.
>>553386397You got killed by some cheating nigger.
>>553386397killed by cheater and someone likely reported them
>mute when minimized off>night audio on>extract point : camped>free loadout : pickedHanging on 4chan in the meantimethe second I hear footsteps I'm alt tabbin' and ratin'
Should I use my Vita Shot blueprint? I don't pvp
Does the type of gear you bring in affect the lobby you get placed? I stuffed some wolfpacks in my ass to kill a leaper and got gunned down by someone rocking a bettina 4
>>553389919See if you can trade it for vita spray, it's way more useful. Use them all the time to heal up when an herbal bandage would be overkill and a waste
>>553390019For sure it does like loadout value based to some degree
>>553390019Legends say yes. But the lobby wont be 100% kitted individuals, that would be too good.
>>553390019>>553390117>bring three snap hooks in your safe pockets>all the other players spawn with better loot
"Justice warriors" are just as bad as KOS fags. For literally no reason at all dude shot me in the back and killed me while saying "yeah bro I know it was you who killed that other guy, don't lie" because I was spaming "no!" on the ground What did I do for the 7 minutes the game was even going on? I spawned in on spaceport right next to the harvester. I threw a bunch of wolfpacks at the queen and tried to loot the harvester. Dude walked in and blew me apart as soon as my back was turned. What a fucking faggot.
>>553380059The whole game was supposed to be this.
>>553391348I did this to someone once. Turns out I had the wrong guy. Didn't have defib so he just died lol. If you can't see what's funny about that, then you're a little too soft
>>553391348>killed in chungus lobby>"my mental gymnastics have allowed me to kill you legally. I will continue to think of myself as a righteous person after this and will probably make a reddit post">killed in regular lobby>"good fight bro *punch*"
I kill as many people as possible in chungartha. These faggots need to suffer
>>553391348>"Justice warriors"Are you seriously bringing politics in Arc Raiders? Idiot.
>>553391952>immediately gets booted to ratnigger queueand nothing of value was lost>>553392198nta, but it's amusing how hard you're projecting while completely misreading the post you replied togood job retard
>>553391952>I kill as many people as possible in chungartha. These faggots need to sufferwhat's it like being a psychopath?
>>553392509I just did this and got frag grenades, a blue shotgun choke, and a heavy shield
>>553392509Thats the beauty of it. We just load back in and start power foraging again kek
>right click weapon>upgrade>brings up massive page of weapons and the one i chose isn't selected by default>they aren't sorted EMBRARK
>>553391348>extracting with everyone>"Hey this guy has a silenced Ferro">"You were the guy shooting at us from across the map">say, Nope, just arc hunting>"likely story">extract closesI don't pvp
>>553392986they werent expecting people to hoard weapons
>>553392772that's a lie. every time I kill someone in PvE lobbies they get unbelievably fucking mad over the mic
>>553393147should have made blueprints easier to find then, shouldnt they, dumb fuckers
>>553393229Nexon needs to funnel more into their Chinese RMT market.
>>553393167Well I dont I cant even remember last time I got killed in solo top kek
>>553392986what?that's never happened to medo you not have it equipped when you're upgrading it or something? I typically repair then upgrade and load up with attachments all at the same time
>>553375798HeyAnon.How are you? Want to team up?
>>553384986Don't you get the one from a quest anyway
>>553393642I think it's a glitch. Selling the weapon it defaults to seems to fix it, but that's fucking brutal when it's actually something good. You can either sell it or max it out to fix the glitch, not sure there's any other way.
>>553393832Yea my post was>even though I got to loot the whole hospital myself>I got a blueprint that you earn from a fucking quest
>>553392986>and the one i chose isn't selected by defaultIt does for me
>>553393940Still looking for Survivor augment, myself.
>>553394165ick if it was you or another anonbut you might be right about the reverting droprates on Coldsnap, because I am getting nothing
>>553392509>>immediately gets booted to ratnigger queue>commits suicide for a few runs>back in chungartha in less than 10 minutes
>>553394449Yeah like thats an actual viable thing to doNot, moron, you don't even play the game or you would know how boring that is
>>553394449Im upset that you kill chungs and I rage on my mic when I get killed in solos
>>553393746
>>553391348Rats do this to avoid justice warriors. They play victim on prox comms so the sheriff thinks the rat was defending themselves when in reality they just did what they do best (acting like dindu niggers.)
The moss in the defib ingredients reminds me of that one nigger who injected himself with butterflies and died of sepsis
>>553394449if someone wants to waste their time loading into games and dying multiple times just to shoot at someone who won't shoot back and doesn't have anything they can't replace 10x over without blinking, lol whatever
>>553396361Could be wrong, but I think suiciders are being put in hostile lobbies anywayI have not heard a random flare go off in I swear literally like 50+ games or somethingMaybe I'm just too far to hear someone getting a blueprint or whatever, but it's always someone downed to Bastion or Rocketeer and I defib them, I do remember seeing suicide flares, but it feels like its been forever and I'm pretty sure I'm in 1000% friendly lobbies at this point
>>553396361Isn't it funny how no one has said "thanks for the survivor augment," ever since I offered to craft them for the nigger that kept saying it? KOSfags have no excuse. It's a litmus test, just like returning your shopping cart. The game gives you every reason to not have to act like a nigger, but also every opportunity to do so, and at the end of the day you only act like a nigger if you are one.>but muhchanics influence behaviorKeep acting like you deserve to be a slave, nigger.
>>553396827>>but muhchanics influence behaviorThe only mechanic I've seen that justifies PvP are late spawnsNot saying its a good thing or whatever but I seriously dont get what these PvPfags are talking about besides>BUT IT SAYS EXTRACTION SHOOTER>YOU DO THAT IN EVERY EXTRACTION SHOOTER I PLAY>MOOOOOM IT SAYS PVP ON THE BOOOX
>>553396827>>553397213carebears will write these ridiculous essays and pretend that everyone else is just a haterPvP is funPvE is boringsimple as. thanks to your people for the collection of free Anvil IVs however

There's a little bit here for everyone.
>>553396206>that one nigger who injected himself with butterflies and died of sepsisWhat the fuck?
what is it about this game in particular that makes people livid over PvPing? especially ones that cry and complain about "unfair play" like ratting and their hard-earned loot what aboutother extraction shooters? I know the lore is pretty much man vs machines so its stupid for man in this universe to fight each other but still. I'm not a PvPer but to me that just the genre's experience, take it or leave it.
>>553380059>>553380128I prefer either full friendly or full KOS. I hate being around players who pretend to be friendly then shoot you in thr back and I don't want to have to KOS friendly players.
>>553380470>You dont need to be in them tho? You can literally play this game without ever knowing about Chungartha.>Redditors got mind broken by 100% confirming its existence, why?It's funny because they raised shit storms when we suggested it existed and now that it's confirmed they're raising shit storms that it exists even though they can't get into them naturally.
>>553396827Based>>553397481>ridiculous essaysNigger are you really calling that an essay?
>manage to pull 20k trial points out my ass on the snowball challenge>Not even in the top 10 of my bracket despite starting today.Life is pain.
>>553384524>were apparently late spawns because I left early.You get put into late spawns for leaving early?
>>553399387>despite starting today.This is where you failed, start and end of the weeks are full of sweatlords. Join the holy land of the working man, Wednesday or Thursday.
>>553386004>PvE lobbies, they teach people all the wrong lessonsNot really. You PvP players are just niggers lmao. It's like seeing a man being friendly and respectful and you hoodlums are like he's not going to make it in the Hood. Of course not because he acts the way he should for his environment. You pvp niggers act the way you need for your KOSistan ghetto hell holes and we PvE players act properly for our high trust lobbies..
>>553399621Enough time in the season to give that a try next time. Thanks anon.
>>553399738>weNigger, go back.
>>553396206And now you remember the nigger who thought gorilla glue was for weaves
>>553400017NTA but we don't have to suicide to "go back" to our Friendly lobbies like you doWe are already playing there idiot
>>553390019>Does the type of gear you bring in affect the lobby you get placed? I have been a firm believer that does. Whenever I brought anything more than a ferro or anvil to a matriarch I would get killed before I even made it to the event. I am certain you are placed either with slightly more aggressive players than normal or players with higher KDA. I think one of the problems with this game is that the devs try to match by SKILL but they look for that based on KILL:DEATH ratios which technically isn't indicating skill but rather AGGRESSION.For those with less imagination and less iq consider this; even if you're a better player but not shooting first or even shooting at all you can be killed more often than some rat who just hides and extract camps. If I'm fully committed to running away when fired upon, either I'll die or live when shot but my KDA will never improve. Compared to someone who extract camps, they will likely win most engagements and have a high kill to death ratio since they're just sitting there waiting most of the match and only taking fights where someone has their back to them. That's my theory on it anyway. Thank you for reading my ramblings.
>>553398895It's real
>>553400407Bait used to be believable. Im disappointed in you, Anon-san.
>>553400651>a tragedy for everything except the gene pool
>>553397213>The only mechanic I've seen that justifies PvP are late spawnsThey really don't. You can just leave or scavenge what's been left over.>but I won't get anythingI guarantee I likely have more blueprints and money than you. You people are just niggers with scarcity mindsets.
>>553400651was the butterfly okay?
Bros, do any of you get lag spikes after ~3 hours of playing? Dont know if its just my ARC(h btw) acting up, or other hardware problems.
>>553397481>PvP is fun>PvE is boringStay in your pvp lobbied then lil bro. you don't see any pve players complaining about us wanting to join pvp servers.it's always pvp players saying how they want us pve players in their lobbies. no stay in your segregated lobby lil bro
>>553380470>You dont need to be in them tho?I leave them sometimes but it's a chore engineering the situations where it's honorable to down other players. Then after playing normally for a little while I get put back there. It's just a needless pain in the ass.
>>553399738there's 0 respect in pve lobbies. it means nothing because everyone just plays in fear of the algorithm; you have as much civility as a pack of piranha consuming a cowreal lobbies are the only meaningful place where you could show kindness because that's the only place where you're actually putting something up
>the chungards are still shadowboxing
>>553401091Are you playing late into the night? I think the MM slacks the region restrictions when less people are playing. Kind of how duos will get matched with trios if MM is taking too long, the game may throw you into a high ping server just because there's nowhere else to put you.
>>553401346>there's 0 respect in pve lobbies. it means nothing because everyone just plays in fear of the algorithm; you have as much civility as a pack of piranha consuming a cowNot really. Most of the players just ended up there by playing a certain way and don't realize that it's not the norm.
>>553401452That may be the case now that the ABMM has been dev confirmed, but Chungartha was originally formed organically by civilized players (and the laughably low skill wannabe rats.)
>>553401091>>553401431Ah sorry, meant stuttering/fps lag.
Reminder: if you want "mixed", middle-of-the-road lobbies, just pick whichever map sounds like it would be least popular right now. Avoid Stella, choose places like Blue Gate or Spaceport. Avoid map conditions. Etc.
>>553400957to be fair brazils gene pool was already destroyed centuries ago. The majority of slaves from Africa were sent there
>>553401797I'm a consolefag. I haven't noticed any stuttering, but after a few hours of play my PS5 will go into jet engine mode for a few minutes to cool off. It's probably a cooling issue.
>>553401883Kek! If I knew it was a BR I wouldn't have even said anything. Par for the fucking course.
>minding my own business>guy starts shooting meuhm... hecking rude????
If you shoot me in the backI will call you a fagThis is your only warning buddy

It's gonna take you days no matter how much you grind. A different raider will actually have the random chance of finding it. Alternatively, you could just take a break and play something else for a few days. The game will throw you a bone when you start playing again to rope you back in with "progress."

as a new player is there a point using custom loadouts?
>>553406725It's based as fuck (not even baiting) the devs are showing themselves to be uncaring and incompetent so far, so the more I see shit getting abused, exploited, etc the better. Force the devs to fix this shit or run it into the ground I say, same logic goes for all the people glitching into walls or using console commands to see past smoke, the fact people even had ACCESS to do that is fucking insane. Fuck Embark.
>>553406342we are all white men
>>553406856Yes 100%, there is a lot of seething here over freekits, don't mind that, that's just people dying to a shitter every dozen games or so then larping like freekits are the most OP shit on the planet. Custom loadouts are always going to do you much better, you can take adrenaline shots, better augments that let you loot more (and have a safe pocket), etc. All of these will make playing the game for you a lot better.Early on you can do some free loadout runs, then exchange your free loadouts at the clinic for level 1 augments, I suggest the looting 1 augment.
>>553404742Only jews get schizophrenia naturally.
>Console commands still workembark doesn't deserve any of this "success"
>>553407052>freekits are the most OP shit on the planetThey are OP in PvP, not for farming. Because gear balance sucks ass your entire goal as a freekit is to get a kill and dip, while investing nothing besides 2-3 minutes per run.
>>553407162It's just new and mostly fun for a while. Largely being held together by streamer clips. The numbers will start to dwindle once players realize the gameplay loop is kinda shit and rather nonsensical. This game doesn't know what it really wants to be
>>553407362They are not OP in PvP for (you), you are only remembering cases where you happened to be against the rat that happened to get the kettle loadout and managed to sneak up on you, custom loadouts are ALWAYS going to be superior because you actually control what you bring in, one solid loot run gets you 10 poverty kettle kits that you can then exchange for some poor soul's proper loadout by getting the jump on him.I am not here to argue with you about if free loadouts are balanced or not, personally I think they need a timer (same with naked runs desu or remove their safe pocket) and that greys need to be nerfed, I'm just pointing out that OBJECTIVELY custom loadouts are better in a game like this where economy is such a fucking joke and looting is so easy
>>553407673>sneakYou don't have to sneak with weapons like stitcher or kettle. That's plenty enough to hold W and repeat until you win, and considering that the investment is 0, they will do it every time.Your gear "advantage" is gone the moment you get chipped 2-3 bullets on a rotate or you don't spam C4 like a fucking retard, because that's what it is - consumable stacking and utility spam is the only advantage you get over a freekit with a good weapon.
Got ratted but the other friendly near me pwned the rat, so I know a chungus got to have my loot (and the rat's). Feels good
>>553408096If you are losing a clean fight against a shitter with a stitcher or kettle that is holding W on you then they are the better player and deserved to win, that should only be happening if you're running some kind of PvE loadout like a hairpin and hullcracker
>>553408158the rat had a freekit :) he lost nothing :)))
>>553402883KNOCKING. I HATE that people let him up after he loses a fight just because he's a streamer. It makes the game weird.
>>553408513My guy, kettle and stitcher are literally top1 and 2 meta pvp weapons right now. Do you know that they perform ALMOST EXACTLY THE SAME as their level 4 counterparts?The firerate on the stitcher magdump is the same, the kettle 1 is literally the same weapon as a 4, the only things those weapons are getting with upgrades is range. Are you genuinely fucking retarded?
>>553408517He had been killing players earlier, so he had their loot, which he lost. All his time was for nothing.
>>553408748My point is that you're bringing those weapons in yourself with a custom loadout, which is why its superior because you also get to pick what utility you have and can have actual attachments... What loadout do you think I'm suggesting you bring in this fantasy scenario? Your kettle, custom utility, and superior augment > free loadoutI don't get how that is difficult for you to grasp
>>553403567>Took a few tries to find a lobby with a rat in it. Hunting rats that don't expect a fair fight is so satisfyingI had a medium shield on and found a volcano after using a key card on blue gate. random rat tries to free kits stitcher me from behind at medium range. I hit a corner and waited for him to chase and instantly killed him>oh no way man>no fucking way you win thatBro is in a green shield and can't believe he died to a medium shield with an epic shot gun. I'm tired of freekitters and their ways.

If you play solo or duo, a freekit is practically the same power pvp-wise as a custom kit just because of how initiative works, and it doesn't even have to be a full-on ambush, getting grazed by a pair of bullets is enough to nullify all of your "advantage".
>>553409602trios is where pvp shines, even playing around the downed statenot even a thing in PvE, may as well be missing half the pvp
>>553409754>PvEmeant solos*but solos is essentially PvE
>>553409754>>553409829Yes, solos is basically PvE and ganking.Trio PvP is great, besides the trigger nade spam, that shit gets real stale fast.
If you queue trios do you end up against nothing but other trios?
>>55341008299% of the time outside of a few cases the matchmaking system decides to snort meth, yes.
Is the loot better in trios? I used a ton of blue/epic keys during night raids in solo queue and I didn't get a single epic.
>>553412135no, it's about the same
>>553412135I pretty much always get good stuff using keys during night and ems.I bet the things you got were actually good, but you didn't need them or understand their value

not sure if there was a recent update or was my bios firmware update (can't roll back either lol). i get this micro stuttering and my inputs are delayed or just missed. i get frame drops from like 180fps to 140 then it goes back up, its driving me nuts. i have a 7900x cpu, 64gb ddr5 and a 4080super. tried rolling back gpu driver, numerous settings changes in bios, doesn't happen in any other game. fucking annoying. my cpu is at 100% while playing too so i'm wondering if this not shitty cpu is bottlenecking somehow?

I'm going to say it.Safe pockets should only be available for epic and above augments. Maybe looting mk 2.
>>553421470one safepocket is fine, some purple augments need to have 2 instead of one though
did they do something with matchmaking? if i'm being neutral (no player interaction, no kills) it feels like my rating automatically goes to friendly, and even if I do a single kill it tends to still keep me around?
>>553421732If you got rid of the safe pocket on free or even no augment you could fuck every RMT bitch out there, though. Because that's how they game the system. There's also the 'friendly and doesn't shoot back' people who just join a match, look for a blueprint, toss it in their safe pocket then immediately suicide.
>>553421470yes
Expeditions should let players Pass On a single Blueprint onto the next character they play.
>>5534129253 parts daily by seeding Celeste.
>>553421470>>553422132noobs need safe pockets
>>553393642happens to me all the time too
>>553422132no augments absolutely shouldn't have a safe pocket, but others should have 1-2, depending on rarity and type. 3 safe pockets is too much.maybe make green augments a bit more expensive (about 20 total mats instead of 12).
>>553423036naked loses the safe pocketfreekit keeps not having onecombat mk1 and mk2 and mk3 augs get 1utility mk1 and mk2 augs get 1, mk3 gets 2looting mk1 gets 1, mk2 gets 2, and mk3 gets 3

>>553375582i had fun and didnt get mursered until i saw somebody shooting at a metal pidgeon thing. He killed it in three shots so I got my basic rifle and popped off at a bird but it wasnt a small one, just far away. Then he farted me to death.
>>5534234752 complaint points - defender is basically a combat aug in disguise so I'd argue that needs 1, and 3 for survivor is too much, and 3 for cautious still looks sketchy because it has the biggest bag in the game.
Half of the "ratting" problem in this game could be fixed by forcing your character skin color to match your real skin color.
>>553423578i carry at least 6
>>553423691I've only ever heard a single black person in this game and he was a shitter who was getting fucked up by arc before I saved him and he gave me a bobcat he found. He wasn't a nigger, he was like an anime watching nerdy black guy/respectable black guy like Obongo. I've only been ratted by whites and spics.
>>553423632and how to get the quest lady to consensually inspect my safe pocket
>>553423475>looting mk1 gets 1, mk2 gets 2, and mk3 gets 3kek unless you put in buffs for the combat and utility, why would anyone ever choose anything but looting?
>>553423691But then the lobbies would be overtly segregated by ethnicity instead of behavior, and niggers could cry racism (their favorite pass time.) Let the niggers keep pretending to be White, and they can continue to be confounded by how we still know every time.
>>553423672why the fuck is 3 too much for survivor? the entire point of the aug is lootingI'd argue for converting the "special" slots on combat and utility augs to safe pockets as well, still limited to the specific item types they supportthe ubiquitous availabilty of safe pockets is at least 50% of the reason this game succeeded
>>553424069every pocket is a safe pocket if you survive
>>553424184>why the fuck is 3 too much for survivor? the entire point of the aug is lootingbecause it has the best all-around stats in the game, it doesn't need the most safepockets as well
>>553424001I had a black guy watch a few of us put batteries in to unlock the room in reinforced reception. He just watched us all take batteries going back and forth. Then we we opened it he tried setting a jolt mine on the ground. I pulled out my IL Toro and blasted his ass as he made funny noises while dying. Few white guys started asking what's happening as I looted him. I had to spend a few rounds in PvP lobbies after that but it was worth it
>>553424293it can't use heavy shields
>>553424430as if those are worth it, only 3 augments can use them anyways and those ones are shit besides the defender
every looting should be light shield only and less utility slots no exception
>>553425551It's crazy survivor has med shield desu
>>553423347>>553423578Why is this bot spamming and replying to itself?
>>553425551>>553426095arguably they can, but they should properly sacrifice other advantages, survivor doesn't though
>>553426351it does. it can't hold as much loot as cautious

>>553426506inventory slots are important for us looters. there are other augs that have nearly as much or as much as survivor
>>553426927>inventory slots are important for us looters.then why are you trying to argue that an augment that tries to be a hybrid should be as good as pure looter augments at lootingcontinue using cautious then

I think there is loot teleportation cheats in the gameI keep getting fresh friendly games completely scoured of all good sellables and blueprints

Was fighting a bastion earlier today, one raider threw a lure grenade and the Bastion just disappeared into thin air. Everyone was standing around going "huh?? where'd it go??"
>>553426848Yeah one of the big mistakes new players make is thinking that because the enemy got the jump on them and took out their shields, they're about to win. If that rat is reloading you might have enough time to down him
Cute robots are just trying to live their lives in peace, while deranged crazy underground monkeys scavenge them and tear poor clankers apart for worthless materials—just to build better guns and kill each other faster. Atrocious, cannibalistic creatures. This is why you lost your world: you get what you deserve. Stay underground forever.
how often do they drop new cosmetic sets?
>>553429317Yep, especially freekits that has no heals and will attack you with 1hp anyway because they have nothing to lose.
>>553430146Especially if he missed a few too many shots on the Kettle I and is now starting the reload, then gives up and swaps to the other gun he found, which he forgot to reload before attacking you so now he's starting a new reload, etc.
>>553428679I'm talking about ~28-29min in, all loose loot just evaporating. Keyrooms containing zero loose loot, Etc. Stuff that no one could've gotten to based on the ingame time.

How can you tell if you are in PvP or nonPvP lobbie?
>>5534387721. if you heard raider flares going off in the distance after gunshots2. if you dont hear people using the emote wheel voice lines3. if you see dead bodies everywhere
>>553438468>Imagine having an experience where you actually interact with others in a meaningful way and have to use game sense and your instincts to extract with loot as opposed to opening drawers for 8 hours straight with nothing but the occasional fireball to worry aboutIdk man, if you enjoy playing that way suit yourself I like both sides of the game
>>553438468Imagine playing a game where all you do is walking and pressing E to collect toilet parts.
>>553438772Do you hear the sound of gunfire 24/7 and the sound of flares popping in the immediate aftermath? Do you hear countless people saying 'Hey raider!' 'don't shoot!'?
18/20 of my blueprints are for gadgets and weapon mods. Then I have the Venator and the Aphelion BPs.People told me to go find raider caches for weapon BPs, but I swear, most of the spawn circles for them don't spawn any of them 90% of the time.
>>553424069>why would anyone ever choose anything but looting?Because Looting Mk3 having a medium shield is a mistake that should be corrected
>>553438834>>553438846yes I've played tarkov to death I don't want any of that shit ever againI don't want to ever have to do the lightkeeper quests again (seriously? kill 8 pmcs in the mountain cave area of woods? kill yourself nikita)I enjoy the hiking trail experience of this game where you say hello to a random stranger passing by
GIVE ME PVE WHERE YOU FIGHT ON THE GIGANTIC ROBOT CRABS HUGE BIG FAT ROBOT CRABS HIGE BIG EXPLOSION MILLIONS ROCKETS EVERYONE DIES HUGE LOOT LASER IN THE IN THE PENIS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WHERE WHEN
>>553439107That's fine you want to play that way but why act confused people find fun in other ways? If I just wanted a social simulator I'd play something else, MAYBE if they had more interesting quests or PvE I'd play the game that way but right now I enjoy PvPing most of the time I'm playing, or just being in more hellish lobbies
>>553439227nuh uh embark thought that was boring, you will have your half baked pvp slop and you will enjoy it
>>553438834Did queen/harvester for the first time yesterday and after the queen died one guy managed to get all the queen cores, then said „line up in a file, I’ll drop one for each of you“, then at the hatch he also dropped me his equalizer. White people stuff
>>553439503That's cool
>>553439502pretty sure the reason they added pvp was because the players would bitch incessantly if they didnt
>>553439423>If I just wanted a social simulator I'd play something elseNTA but this is disingenuous as fuck, give me a fucking break
The throw snowballs at X challenge is actually fun. But having to collect the snowballs 1 by 1 is actually making me suicidal. Why the fuck wouldn't you just pick up a stack of 5, or at the very least 2, per snowpile?
>>553439553>I enjoy the hiking trail experience of this game where you say hello to a random stranger passing byYeah very disingenuous, sorry you struggle to grasp people enjoy things differently
>>553439553cuck faggot
>>553428420Yeah I'm suspicious of this too. I'd be the first to breach something and there would be loot scattered about at the bottom of the container or 'empty' spots or loot that doesn't belong like a durable cloth in an electrical box.
>>553428420Probably the chinks. What region you play in? Would not surprise me if they found a way to position hack throughout the entire map under ground repeatedly opening boxes and immediately suiciding on finding a BP.
I genuinely would not be shocked if in the future it comes out people can straight up edit their inventory like in some other games, maybe it's not possible now but seeing how incompetent these devs are it will probably be an issue in the near future
>>553439750>>I enjoy the hiking trail experience of this game where you say hello to a random stranger passing byI thought it was pretty clear that anon meant having that experience in addition to the rest of the game, i.e. killing ARC, looting, exploring, etc. He's not saying that's the only thing he does while playing, like it's some VRchat shit.
>>553439865You sound like the sperg in this vidhttps://files.catbox.moe/schpku.mp4
>>553440194Aside from killing arc, all other progression is meaningless in that case. If you are strictly friendly or PvE, you are grinding towards nothing, you can kill certain arc faster, in fact near instantly which will only serve to make the game even more dull. You are basically loot hording and collecting things so that you can socialize with others in a more efficient manner, that's about it. If you find that fun and sustainable by all means you do you, but yes in that case it is a glorified social simulator. You're watching numbers go up and vcing with people, that's it.
PvE fags fundamentally misunderstand the entire game
>>553432460miserable schizo fuck thinks everyones a tranny
>>553440297This video is kino because it captures the worst of both sides, we have the chungus redditoid playing his flute hoping to catch a clip to post on social media on one side, and on the other side we have the stereotypical nice guy genocider that farms kills on people not fighting back
ah yes because pvp has so much progression
>>553440297the guy missing his first shots on a stationary target send me
>>553440407Aside from killing players, all other progression is meaningless in that case. If you are strictly unfriendly or PvP, you are grinding towards nothing, you can kill certain players faster, in fact near instantly which will only serve to make the game even more dull. You are basically loot hording and collecting things off bodies so that you can kill others in a more efficient manner, that's about it. If you find that fun and sustainable by all means you do you, but yes in that case it is a glorified nigger simulator. You're watching numbers go up and shooting people, that's it.
>>553440660You completely missed the point and were too beta to directly reply to the post you're responding to
>>553439865>>553440728>cuck>betaseek help anon
>>553440697this doesnt work because at least the equalizer is useful against bigger arc than a kettle
>>553440697PvP is more of an endgame than the actual endgame content, seethe all you want. I'm a proponent of engaging in both sides of the game, no clue why everyone here gets so insecure over the mere mention of PvP, I'm enjoying every aspect of the game
upgraded rattler be like>33% shooting>66% reloading
>>553414285I watched a guy kill 8 bastions on dam, and he basically just 2 shot every flying arc without aiming at their rotors, so I guess it's good for cleaning up
>>553414285it's good for immediately making yourself a target to brown people
>>553440660NTA but for me it’s about getting better myselfMore about mechanical skill and that requires PVP
>>553440660>>553440997So in a sense it’s an arbitrary progression of getting to the point where you can sustain permanently running tempest 4/bobcat 4 with best mods
>pvpbrowns are having a melty again you will NEVER know the feel of loading into stella montis of night raid, hearing a flute (your sign of being in chungartha), and being able to stuff your pockets with 100k then dipping. enjoy fighting your niggerrat cohorts for scraps and being stressed all the time
>>553440821>I'm a proponent of engaging in both sides of the game,You do you, boo. Just because someone doesn't PvP doesn't mean they're playing a social simulator. >no clue why everyone here gets so insecure over the mere mention of PvPDon't act like it's only one side. Everyone is always getting their panties in bunches, including you and I.
I only PvP because there is no actual progression and I don't want to just watch my inventory numbers go up for nothing, don't blame players on either side blame the shitty devs. PvE is lame and boring especially after you get deadline or wolfpack BPs and gear balance is fucked to the point you're only grinding for "endgame" shit to flex on other players, I had my fun with this game but I genuinely can't believe it's a full release personally.

>>553440997yes but this game doesn't really improve your aiming, reaction speeds or situational awareness (mechanical skill) as much as other extraction shootersmost of the pvp skill progression is knowledge of maps (useless for other games), knowledge of guns, explosives and gadgets (also useless outside this game) and knowledge of tips, tricks and exploits (same as the others)

>>553441438I keep finding Survivor mk3 so I never try out the others
>>553441438Rub it with green shield and additional swap in inventory and self damage with light impact/don’t heal to fullThis is the way
>>553441476it was a le jokeobviously nobody is screaming at the top of their lungs over text or stutter typing. you guys are just fun to poke at, the same way PvPers make posts like>ayep, just killed another friendly>time to suicide 5 times and do it againwhen that's not really a viable way to the play the game anyway
>>553441580>ayep, just killed another friendly>time to suicide 5 times and do it againI'm pretty sure people make a voyage to Chungartha, then just go back to PvP lobbies for a while until they need supplies again. I can't imagine anyone is pathetic enough to abuse matchmaking to ONLY kill friendlies
>>553441670yea, but people still make the posts>>553394449
>>553441281This. PVP becomes the only real content very quickly.
pve lobbies are cheating
>>553441828if you played until the point you have nothing left to do but to kill other players for fun, it's time to take a break from the game
>>553441908idk man, just go play trios if you want to pvpmost people playing solos are just doing quests or expedition shitgingy has to farm a bunch of shit because playin with peanut nets you -2 million space coins
>>553441908You're allowed to shoot other players. It doesn't mean you have to shoot other players.
im just gonna keep fighting other players and i dont really care what anyone else has to say about it
I no-lifed and finished next expedition's $5m a couple weeks ago. Aside from doing trials, I just play to help and have fun with others in Chungartha. Bring my flute and defibs and have a good time.
if you didn't solo the matriach while also defending yourself from a horde of browns using freekits you are NOT playing the game correctly
I like a lot about this game, but the lack of interesting or worthwhile loot is a real damper in general.There is no gear fear, because none of the loot is really worth that much anyway. On the off chance you really need it, you have safe pockets anyway. You don't need more than one or two.

Hey, does anybody have any leftover candleberries that they could trade with me?Really just trying to finish the winter event, but I only bought the game about a week ago.Would highly appreciate some help, maybe I can offer some other resources you need?
I want to get into PvE lobbie with a torrente so bad. I hope they will team against me and I will shoot them all like little bugs, even if I lost it will be worth it.
>>553443248I've been salvaging all mine, but I can grab some while casually playingDo you know how many you need?

I remember when I started playing I really wnte Anvil blueprint and was farming gun boxes and in 20 hours I've got like 8 bobcats and I hated it so much I thought it was a very shitty gun.

Make tagging nades to tag through wall, it will solve 70% problems of this game.

>>553445158throwing tagging grenades everywhere isn't much of a solutionI think they should just implement that thing where if your character's eyes can't see something you can't see it with your camera, like SCUM does it

Did you guys get in Gingy's lobby?
I am done with this dogshit fucking game (I'm not actually done)I really shouldn't care so much about dying since I'm not playing on my pve account but it's just so genuinely frustrating trying to get anything done in pvp lobbies when the game actively punishes you for doing anything but hunting playersI didn't even hear the guy in the webm before he opened the door because of the glitchy ass footsteps audio and then it takes forever to unequip the stupid barricades to equip my shotgun and in that time he's already magdumped meThe usual excuse would be to take precautions when looting so that you don't get shot in the back, but you can't even properly set up said precautions because you either don't hear someone's coming or because it takes too long to reset
>>553447783It wont always save you from situations like this, but if you want to switch faster hit the button to equip your weapon and roll at the same time (sprint roll pref) as you not only mess up their aim but you come out of your roll with your gun up and can shoot right away
dude i love being permanently behind trios as a solo player no matter what
>>553448020That's a good idea, I'll give it a try next time, thanks
>>553448052>47kMy man you can push 60k without being a sweatlord. 100k+ is the trio gap.What is your point distribution?
>>553448221>without being a sweatlordif you good spawns
>>553440194You can't have both lol. How many times can some get shot in the back before they start shooting everyone on sight. You are never going to find friendly players in the pvp lobbies.
>>553448292>>553448052NTA but I got like 56k and I'm rank 20but it's probably way harder to farm now that everyone is tryin to get 3* last minuteWhat do your 5 trials look like? Maybe we can give some tips or something
Looks like I'm not the only one fed up with the audio issues in this gamehttps://www.reddit.com/r/ArcRaiders/comments/1q9tesj/brokenmissing_audio_queues_are_a_much_bigger/>guy straight up full sprints towards another player and he doesn't hear him approaching until he fires his gun
>>553448694Luckily never encountered this with PvP, but I absolutely fucking hate it when pops do the no audio glitch.
>>553443248I have none, but cold snap Buried City is coming up, Marano Park next to Research has a bunch of bushes there. I can help farm you a few stacks, how many do you need?
https://www.reddit.com/r/ArcRaiders/comments/1q9u1hu/respawning_exploit/>The last person we killed was a young kid who said “remember my skin!”. A couple minutes later I got down by a raider in the exact same skin by the name of Adrooski or something similar. We ended up killing him again and continued looting. He shouted the same phrase “remember my skin”.>Seconds later he reappears and we down him to find out he is exploiting the F1 console logs where he can type in a command to respawn. holy crap you can respawn with console commands? wtf is wrong with embark
>>553449171wtf

>>553449171lmaooooooo
>>553449171>Pretty sure it's because the console is still available if you don't update your game and thru Epic because Epic has to approve before they will push the patch.
>>553448158It'll take practice to do so on reaction without fumbling. I suggest everyone, even pve players, take some time everyday to just do freekit pvp runs so you get your body, muscle memory, and reactions used to pvp so you don't jump out of your skin everytime you get spooked while in chungartha.
>>553444867Alright I got 4 in the last hour using 3x stickynades instead. Stella is a lot more calm these days with my good boy lobbies.

>>553452630>when NIGMERCS stream snipes you and starts screaming the gamer word to 100k+ viewers
>>553443248>>553449018Okay Anon, fresh crops from Chungartha. Any other stuff you need?
>>553452109Honestly haven't noticed the audio bugs apart from the odd mic-cut outs which make it somewhat hard to understand teammates or other raiders (even when they're not using the voice changer).I don't actually have a problem with the commands left in on steam/epic through launcher args but the fact that they left those commands in are pretty stupid.As for the progression/skill tree I can say as a new player that it feels like having 5 skill points in Agile Croucher was completely pointless. I was expecting to be like maybe only 20% slower than walking at the full skill investment but I don't think I've noticed a difference. Are there any bugged skills I should look out for specifically? I think I know which are the utterly useless ones just looking right now.>>553454101>Anticheat will be pristine in a couple weeks tooIt'll take more time than that
>Accidentally injure (not kill) another raider while teaming up to destroy a Bastion>Patch him up with bandages after the deed is done>We all have a grand ol' time and extract together >Immediately find myself in shoot-on-sight shithole servers afterwardWell, fuck me then.
Are Sentinels bugged or something? I've killed two and neither of them what lootable for some fucking reason, and this is the rarest arc in the entire fucking game.
>>553455505Their lootable corpse teleports usually 30-40m away look for black smoke stack. It does sometimes teleport either to an unreachable area or vanishes entirely like half the time too for whatever arcane reason.
>>553455505Yes, they often phase under the map or simply never switch to a lootable state. Its recommended to go for couriers instead.
There are many many things they can still do with this game:>PvP factions or Speranza contracts to hunt down bad actors>trap laying isn't used to its full extent, you should be able to set up bait/fake loot>quests could be more involved and have more intrigue, some conflict you have to solve>ultra rare loot that cannot be crafted or repaired like weapons or things like a self-revive>stealth/invisible and dangerous enemies, especially on a map like Stella>rooms with good loot that require working together or killing a strong enemy>rooms with good loot that kill you with various traps if you stay too long>large map with rideable vehicles (mechs??)>explicit PvP (arena style) and PvE modes (big boss rush)>more unique loot
If I go in with a totally empty loadout, collect like 2 or 3 items, and run straight to extract, will that be enough to get me back to PvE after doing it a couple times?
>>553456349yea pretty much, just dont shoot anyone and if somoene shoots you, let them 100-0 you
>>553456349I think you need to get shot a few times, remember to use the feedback if that happens.
>>553456154tarkov has all these why not play that?
>>553456349extracting doesn't work as well as dying to another player like a bitch
>>553456349My experience to go from KOS hell to kumbaya happy friends servers is 8 games where i extracted normally with normal loadout just running from everyone and never firing back and grabbing random loot, no deaths.
>>553456764Because the TTK is 0.001 seconds and even more of a corner peeking shite mess. I've seen people play, they die from afar and don't even know what killed them, they keep scanning corner and lines of sights constantly. Doesn't seem fun at all to me, it's a game for autists but of the retarded kind.
>>553454649is there a clip of that
>>553456154>PvP factions or Speranza contracts to hunt down bad actorsA sort of "bounty" system could be interesting but you'd have to approach it with a ton of care, PvP is a core part of the game so you shouldn't punish players for just shooting others, you'd have to be extremely aggressive extremely consistently to be flagged for a bounty hunt, and maybe the hunted player should be warned they're being hunted in a match. Even if being ratted sucks, I don't think PvP players should be explicitly "punished" for engaging with PvP, though the hunt mechanic could work as a way of just giving them the experience they're looking for.>explicit PvP (arena style) and PvE modes (big boss rush)The PvE one is a bit dicey, what you gain is prevent the worst of rats from ruining boss raids, but what you lose is a core part of the game experience by taking responsability and the power of decision away from the players, you'd have to make extremely difficult bosses to justify a game mode like this.
