>>553520536>If you are on a friendly matchmaking level, then acting like that isnt "retarded".>Its normal. And its fine. The lower aggression lobbies have a completely different culture to the high aggression ones.>Why do people in affluent areas act so differently than people in Favellas
>>553532145I think BPs should not be safe pocketable. Everything else remains the same, hell make it so you can pocket shields and guns as compromise but that will immediately stop those suicide runs. They will likely still get out in chung lobbies regardless but they will at least have to play the game and extract.
>>553532908>hell make it so you can pocket shields and gunsthere should just be special augments that let you safe pocket guns, maybe even make it so if you get downed your highest value gun goes in there automatically (for the pvefags)otherwise agree, maybe make it so a certain looting augment allows safe pocketing bps?
>>553533201>there should just be special augments that let you safe pocket guns, maybe even make it so if you get downed your highest value gun goes in there automatically (for the pvefags)that sounds lame as shit
>>553533201>otherwise agree, maybe make it so a certain looting augment allows safe pocketing bps?maybe, thatd be fine.
>you find a pile of bodies>amogus moment when someone else shows up and sees you there, standing amongst the dead, holding a bunch of shit
Is it realistic to farm an anvil blueprint? I see they drop in caches mostly but caches feel impractical to farm. Any tips?Also, best spots to find a wolfpack blueprint?
So what is the worst map?Honestly, I have to go with Buried City. I have never chosen to go back there unless there was a very overt need. Next worst choice is harder, but I would probably have to go with Spaceport because of the lack of verticality.
>be me>be friendly all night>pvp chad rapes me>be mad>go freekit and clear out the whole lobbyfeels good man
>>553533492>caches feel impractical to farm.I have run into the same issue desu. I wish they were more farmable, but I have had extreme difficulty doing so.
>>553531876you are retarded. it doesn't matter if you're late there's always some stuff left over. pvp fags just want the entire section to themselves.
>>553533492I got wolfpack and anvil doing naked runs on buried city. raider cache events there are nice, hit up the apartment buildings there too.
>>553533521I loved buried city when I was getting started, I would loot all the shit in the apartment complex and skedaddle with 50-100k of credits
>>553533492if you need an anvil, you can just get one from a chungarthian for free>>553533521Buried City is a towering achievement in map design. it's just a very kos map in a game where people don't like getting killed
>>553533492they apparently spawn in raider containers. backpacks, weapon cases, ammo boxes and things like that
>>553533492raider caches and raider camp containers, the breachable ones, for ferro/il toro yeahand both of my wolfpacks were found in the apartments on the dam, during night raids >>553533521worst map is spaceport easilyfuckhuge with only a few POIs and those are clustered in just a couple of small areas, meaning most of the map is fucking empty, and it doesn't even have a decent size underground area to compensate like bluegate doesdam = stella > bluegate = buried > spaceport
>>553533257Nah I mainly PvP most of the time and even I sympathize with PvE players bitching about that, kind of lame that you bring in PvE shit and run the risk of a bunch of subhumans running you down because "gibsmedat" just make the augment expensive, maybe even make it so it isn't automatic idk.>>553533619>>553533619>you are retarded. it doesn't matter if you're late there's always some stuff left over. pvp fags just want the entire section to themselves.What the fuck does PvP have to do with anything? Also the vast majority of the time, there isn't shit left over. Just because you get a rare lobby here and there where people loot like retards doesn't mean most lobbies are going to be like that, anything that promotes not interacting with the game should be switched up. Being able to spam naked and freekit runs is retarded, especially when at the same time you're doing that you're ALSO inching your way back into friendlier matchmaking. The abusers might leave some basic materials, big fucking whoop.
>>553533521idk, for me it's bluegate I think>dam bnattlegroundsa classic>buried citycool hospital/parking garage areaI guess the south american looking part is cool too>spaceportpure kinobut I get people who complain about it being too open and nothing going on>blue gateits coolbut too many peoplebreach room is 100% guaranteed to be looted every gamelike nothing to loot in the above ground areaeverything in the underground area gets looted immediatelyfighting the arc is fun, but even then, if you're caught out in the open it's just unfair>stellafun to explorepeople seem to miss a lot of containers anywayalso just good for higher tier salvagable stuffbut I'm a PvEfag
>>553533673imagine being a cuck and relying on other people to craft things and shooting them in the back for it
wolfpacks are retarded I got all my bastion and bombardier cores in 40 minutes
naked runs are balanced actually
You're a dumb FAGGOT if you trust anybody in this game.
>>553533996what the fuckthis is why my containers are always open and missing a space
>>553533837bluegate's biggest problem is that it only has 2 viable loot areas, and they're right next to each othernow that I think about it, stella has a similar problem with medical+assembly, but at least it also has security and cafeteria, and its overall loot density is insanely high everywhere in comparison
>>553533996Where'd you find all that stuff from?
>>553533913I think of them more as my resource gatherers, like an RTS. they scurry around harvesting stuff and basically dropping it at my feet
What's the best farm for killing wasps and hornets
>>553534291Depends on where I spawn but Stella is unbalanced loot wise for some reason, vast majority of BPs I get on my naked runs are from opening luggage cases or breaching the backs of those machines that are in the atrium and lobby, obviously if I spawn at medical or assembly I prio that though.
>>553533996What's your naked farm strategy
>>553534383I've found two aphelion BPs in Stella Montis, they were both in random trashcans
>>553534061>says the wannabe edgelord hiding their faceryderfags with the baclava are KOSanyone with a closed helmet or mask is KOSanyone with the stupid fucking antler/horn skins are KOS>>553533996looter mk2 might as well be free and give you a ton more capacity along with a second ass pocketthere's no point in doing naked runs when you can do mk2 runs, and a single "extra" blue item will pay for the aug>>553534351hidden bunker on spaceport only spawns fiying arc until the bunker is unlocked, when it spawns heavy arc as "defenders"post up on the control tower (launch tower is legitimately too high) with an osprey and a bunch of ammo and a couple of barricades>>553534383so many people ignore the zamboni/cleaner machines breachable panel its crazy, even when everything else is completely picked clean
>>553534437see>>553534383>>553534554you can find BPs basically ANYWHERE on stella, the reason you do naked runs is simply because you can just spam suicide if you get a late spawn
>>553532725Venator or Anvil?
>>553534560hidden bunker spawns don't changeit always has 2 bastions and 1 bombardier from the start of the round that respawn every ~10 minutes
What do you want to see added to the game?- maps- cosmetics- arc- nerfs & buffs
>>553534560the only thing hidden bunker is good for unless someone found out more about it
>>553534560>so many people ignore the zamboni/cleaner machines breachable panel its crazy, even when everything else is completely picked cleanIn my experience, breachable containers don't give better loot for the time put in, although I think the zambonis are better than average.
>>553534772...are you avatar posting with AI and your $20 cosmetic?
>>553534843don't worry, they're bringing back data downloads for next week's trials :^)
Niggertits. My last chance is going to be buried city supply drops. I'm fucked.
>>553534772oh wait it's a tripfagno serious response for you, fuck off>>553535124rip
Stella Montis is completely broken for loot and actually trivialized the game loop for me
>>553535302Gameplay loop is already fucked, people are just mindlessly opening containers for hours on end for nothing
>>553535756>nothingsweet sweet dopamine my friend
>>553534772A pve zone with only hornets and wasps
>>553534950a couple of those machines have guaranteed lightbulb spawns, and I have never failed to get oil, mech parts, etc from the same ones the rest of them are hit or miss, generally miss
>kill a leaper and get its thingWHEREWHERE IS THE LEAPER
>>553535302Are people more aggressive on Stella montis
>try naked run on stella>ok tbf one of the blueprints was from a dead guy
>>553535885two of them consistently spawn on dam>>553535913generally yes, though there is a carebear queue there too if you're far enough into the realm of chungartha
you fuckers better not spoil my guaranteed loot spots in stellaeven if I spawn 10 minutes late they're still there
>>553535915Abuse it til you lose it, that's my mindset
>>553535885Personally I like killing the one at the water treatment hatch on Dam, there is few safe houses there to do it fromOr doing it from one of the breachable bunkers on spaceport, the thing is you'll have to find one roaming the map before you can pick which bunker to hide inboth are pretty comfy/easy and reliably spawn
>>553536068I don't post mine
>>553535913More aggressive when they're aggressive and more friendly when they're friendly.
>>553535913My stella montis lobbies are so friendly, everyone runs around naked suiciding for blueprints
>>553536185same because streamers are scouring the internet making their next video
We are watching Shroud
bored of naked runs time for some kino city runs
Are there raider cache's on Stella?
>>553537036no
>>553537036i dont even know what a raider cache is on regular mapsthose boxes buried in sand? I feel like I've never gotten anything good from those, am I just unlucky or am I thinking of the wrong thing
>bombadier on the west side of hospital>spotters are locked onto a guy on the north side of the hospital>me on the southeast side>bombadier decides to hit me despite not even seeing me and spotters being literally across the map????????????????????????????????this enemy is seriously the most dogshit arc ever made even the rocketeer is less fucking stupid aids cancerat least you can fucking run around bastions but these stupid niggers will completely randomly two tap you from nowhere
>>553537316Bombadier can target you itself, so may have been that
I swear if I get bumped down
>5 runs of naked stella night time>No blueprints yetThis is bullshit.
>>553537482yea I don't get it etiher, but I'm just unlucky with blueprints anyways
>>553537410those fucking retards hit you with or without visioneven if the spotters are dead and you moved 50m away through buildings in buried shitty it still hits youfuck this game
>>553536993Good god this map is broken (at least during cold snap)
stella montis is just me trying to figure out how to leave the atrium for 5 minutes
So are weapon mod and gadget BPs just more common, or am I looking in containers that will give me those BPs but not ones for weapons. I know the meme is that weapon BPs are in raider caches, but I haven't had luck with those yet.
What asshole knocks someone out after extract doors are closing
>>553538738If that faggot was pestering me the whole time I was trying to extract, he's going to have a good night's sleep no matter if I get his loot or not.
>>553538887It was some 3rd guy who ran in after 2 of us were avoiding a shredder and the other retard ran into me so I had to crawl into the stella fan, made it, the second guy ran in, third guy runs in, waits for the doors to start to close, then knocks me out
>>553539046No idea in that case.
>>553537628silencer 2 bp seems to consistently spawn in pharmacy during cold snap, if anyone wants it
Free Loadouts are pests, but it is ego boosting to kill them so easily.
Is it just me or does the Volcano suck fucking ass?Are ANY of the weapons blue-tier or higher worth while? JESUS CHRIST...
>>553539219It's all different skins for the same weapons, brother.
>>553537619>>553537410>>553537316Bombardier can target you and shoot where it expects you to go. So if it sees you running behind cover it may still hit you if you keep same speed and direction. Also if a spotter or Matriarch sees you in can pin point you.
>>553539219>blue-tier or higher worth while?venator because it has 18 damage with a 2.5x headshot multiplierothers are sidegrades that are more expensive for no reason.depending on how big the stitcher nerf will be torrente might be extremely good.osprey is alright for some specific trials (like snitches)some people like renegade but anvil is also right there for cheaper.purples are all dogshit-tier, no exceptions.
>>553539219venator is still great, and will likely return to the top of the meta after the impending kettle nerftorrente is lots of fun and very effective but expensive to runrenegade is a very good midrange option for general use
>easy loot with no riskPve lobbies are cheating
>>553539709>loot only to see number go upself-defeating prophecy
>>553539709>same argument can be used against freekitslol, lmao
>>553539913Well both are unhealthy for the game so yeah it's comparable
>>553539913>PvEtardNo matter how busted freekits are, they still aren't completely ignoring the other part of the game.
What gives the voice changer away?
>>553540071you mean ignoring the part of the game where you're intended to progress through crafting equipment and using the resources you collect on gear you take into a match and put at risk?
Are locked gate keys guaranteed spawns in their respective areas?>Be first to Pilgrim's Peak, loot every container, including the communications tower keyroom>Two other people show up, ask them if they found the key yet and they both say no>End up finding 2 bobcat blueprints in the keyroom (lmao) but no pilgrim's peak locked gate keyeither one of them lied or it really didn't spawn.
>>553540230I do that all the time fighting arcYou retards act like I should be using my trailblazers and wolfpacks on other players
>>553540230>Put at riskAYO THIS NIGGA DYING TO ARC
I have 200 magnetic acceleratorsnow what
>>553540276some assholes are spawning immediately finding the key and putting it in their safepocket and suiciding so they can instantly open the gate in some future run with all 4 keys
>>553540230That's a general gear progression issue that affects both PvP and PvE, freekits are OP for PvP, doesn't mean they ignore a whole other half of the game.
Weird how night maps attract so many more rats. What's up with that? Different matchmaking algo?
>>553540365Figured as much, thought there were multiple key spawns per map though. Got a couple locked gate keys otherwise to use for the next time I do the event.
>>553540365Another reason naked runs and freekits should be nerfed
>>553540449they know you're funneled into fewer exits
>>553540449>no hatchesIt doesn't take a science degree to understand that.
>>553540449Loot worth killing for... or at least somewhat worth more. Most loot is still garbage.
>>553540276People think they looted everything but there's things like cars or power generators outside that likely have the key you're looking for.
>>553540461>thought there were multiple key spawns per map though.there are multiple key spawns, although I have no idea if it's rng or guaranteed.
>>553540298>not using trailblazers on other players>>553540301WE WUZ RAIDERZ N SHIET>>553540365another utterly fucking asinine design decision by the devs - there is no universe in which those keys should be safe pocketable or able to leave the round at all>>553540415good news! with the behavior based matchmaking system, you will pretty much always end up in a game full of other people who want to play the same way you playhave fun with that
>>553540717>have fun with thatEither way, PvEtards have no credibility when it comes to feedback. I'm looking forward to the next seethe session when some guy has a 50-post crashout when he dies once per month.
naked runs and freekits are two completely separate issuesidk if you forgot, but freekits don't have safe pocket
>Kill people all day>Do naked runs in Stella for BPs and let people kill me over and over>Do the survey and say I hated it whenever people kill me>Get back into chungartha and loot back up for more kino PvP sessions or to get shit for friendsIt's honest work
>>553541020Completely retarded system, but that's what we have unfortunately.
YOU GUYSGINGY IS ONLINEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>>553541073I'm just abusing it and hoping things change for the better, not likely though considering people seem to enjoy segregated lobbies for whatever reason
>>553541008its irrelevant because the cost to buy or craft the green shit is basically pennies
>>553540874>pk niggers endlessly seething about being forced to fight other pk niggers instead of risking nothing while farming people who bring actual kits into rounds and just want to shoot robots and get some loot after workthere's a reason every other game in the genre has dogshit retention numbers
I think I made it, hopefully nobody is doing a last minute trial
>>553541184>faggot proves that people don't actually want an extraction shooter and are here only for FOMO, FOTM and gaslightingwhy are you hereYou are also massively fucking braindead if you think the game works in any of the extremes properly. I can agree to some degree of tuning and moderation between both PvP and PvE, but the moment anyone starts propagating exclusively for either I'm calling him a niggerfaggot. Like you.
>>553541476the main queue problem right now is that we effectively only have two extremes - pure pve lobbies, and pure pvp lobbies - there's very little in the middlebut there's also a lot of shit that needs fixed before that can be addressed, or the game _will_ bleed massive numbers of players and enter a death spiral (see every other extraction shooter)rebalance guns and shields to unfuck TTKsrebalance the gear curve so there's a fucking purpose to using high tier shitmake arc scarierthen you can work on smoothing out the queue
anyone else>sleuthing around sub 10 minutes looking for dead people to loot
>>553541812Aye, I can agree with that.Everything always comes down to gear balance and TTK/stakes/time investment.The only part that gets on my nerves during discussing it is "people" assuming any singular change proposed is the only proposed change and further changes to smooth it out are out of the scope.It is certainly a multi-faceted issue.
>>553541476Nigger. Stay in your pvp hell hole zones. It is impossible for players like me who are doing trials and farming bastions with Jupiter's and hullcracker to play with PK niggers who want to shoot me in the back at any given moment>Just play smart and bring jolt mines and this and that etcNo NIGGER. meanwhile you only bring a free kit and wait for the right moment to shoot me.It is NOT POSSIBLE for our play styles to interact. PvP niggers just want to shoot us in the back for some pocket change. While we PvE farmer/looters lode hours worth of prep for nothing.No. Segregation works best. The only thing is they need to make it even more difficult for PvP niggers to section 8 their asses into our High Trust Chungartha communities. >>553541812
>trying to do the pvp shit in pve lobbiesnot fun, they don't fight back or suck>trying to do the pve shit in pvp lobbiesnot fun, you get ganked by opportunists
>>553542313uh oh meltie, lulz
>>553542313>Hours of prepHuh? PvE is trivial with hullcrackers, deadlines, wolfpacks, trailblazers, etc
>>553542514yea it takes 7 hullcracker shots and 2.5 stitcher mags to kill a bastion, I have no idea what that faggot is talking about.
>>553541476>>553541812>there's very little in the middleEXPLAIN TO ME why THE FUCK I'd ever want to to play in a half and half pve/pvp lobby? There's NO DIFFERENCE between that and a FULL PVP lobby to me because in either PvP niggers will just shoot me at extract or while I'm killing the Matriarch with my equalizer. If there's even a chance there's a few Pvpers in my lobby I am NEVER bringing out my Equalizer, hullcracker, Alphelion, Jupiter etc. There is literally no reason to ever risk it when there's PvP niggers around who'll kill you over a renegade or anvil.
>>553542624Hatch keys are cheap
>>553542581>>553542514How long does it take to build a jupiter? Or get all of the mats for multiple trailblazers? you retarded fucking PVP FRIGGERS have no idea how much time it takes to horde mats for things. BECAUSE YOU DO NOT CRAFT OR BUILD. you only EXTRACT CAMP AND STEAL FROM US WHO BUILD THINGS. That's why you can't understand the time we lose. You can't understand that it takes time to shoot snitches for the trial and if you kill us you just wasted all the time we spent. You can't understand that because you're low iq pvp niggers.
>>553542717bro wtf they cost 100 cred?
>>553542438That is why segregation is best. It doesn't mix.
>>553542889Getting the mats for multiple trailblazers is piss easy, wolfpacks and deadlines are also piss easy to make. You're a PvE main but struggling with this basic shit? Have you considered you're the low IQ one?
>>553542624>EXPLAIN TO ME why THE FUCK I'd ever want to to play in a half and half pve/pvp lobby?Because you're cutting out half the gameplay running into economy and even baseline genre issues by doing either.PvE only turns into press E sim and number go up sim for no higher goal with no competition.PvP only (with shit balance) turns into fortnite extraction shooter.Complex social interactions never birth from either, as it turns to either KOS or you just run past other people like they are not even there.This is exactly why >>553541812 and I mention that before that things need to be adjusted to what essentially translates to reducing PvP lethality and increasing PvE lethality then followed by mixing lobbies in different proportions.
>>553542717>just spend more resources for a key that doesn't always work so I can kill you and take all your stuff using my free kitNO. I'll just stay in my y High Trust friendly lobbies while you pvp niggers kill each other over sticher 4s and rusted medical kits or whatever is you do in pvp hellhole lobbies.
>>553542889>projector.jpgFaggot, are you here to make a case or are you here to play pretentious games?Gear balance being shit on the bang/buck scale (especially legendary shit) is what was mentioned, are you mentally impaired? We want to fix that.
I think the water treatment plant key is one of the better ones. I always get pretty good stuff from it.
>>553533594>one nigger pulls another from ChungarthaEnjoy yourself anon. The first murder lobby is the easiest.
>>553543135Is there a reason you attach yourself emotionally to this game
>>553543135>seethes about queen/matriarch>for a key that doesn't always workwhat?
>>553543004>Getting the mats for multiple trailblazers is piss easy, wolfpacks and deadlines are also piss easy to make.It's even easier to do so in Full Friendly PvE lobbies.>>553543040>Because you're cutting out half the gameplay running into economy>I SHOULD BE ENTITLED TO YOUR KITS Fuck off nigger. If you want stuff go farm and craft it yourself you welfare queen. >>553543040>Complex social interactions never birth from either, as it turns to either KOS or you just run past other people like they are not even there.FUCK OFF. No one gives a shit about your retarded skits to and "elaborate ruses" to shoot players in the back. No one wants to deal with that. It's not fun. That's why all pvp players just shoot your asses on sight.You PvE lobbies if you think we just run pass each other and never interact. We actually use our mics unlike psychopath PvPers who never talk or emote at all and can only shoot on sight.FUCK OFF. We don't want you in our lobbies and we don't want to be in your lobbies. Stop crying because you don't get to interact with us. Have fun trying do your "pretend to be friendly then shoot you in the back" gimmicks on the full pvp servers. OH WAIT you can't lmao.
>>553543470>it is scientifically proven that women are mentally attached to their first ex until at least 20 further relationshipsLMAO
what even does this mean
>>553543368>is there a reason you don't want to come to pvp lobbies so I can say I'm friendly and steal all your shit then call it a "complex social interaction"
>>553543384>what>I dont know what a night raid is or how night raids and EMS affect loot tables
I dont actually browse this general. Is this mentally ill PvE guy a fixture here?
>>553543613Where did I say that?
>>553543715Judging by his writing style, he's here A LOT.
FUCK YEAH I FUCKING LOVE CARRYING BOXES THAT SPAWN RANDOMLY AND WAITING TO PRESS E ON 10 TERMINALS
>>553543606Out of thousands of players, you were playing the game the bestest :)
>>553543781Yeesh. Trials are honestly the worst system in the entire game. Need a complete rework
>>553543715>>553543753There are a lot of PvEtards here but yes, most of the deranged takes here are posted by one estrogen infused, emotionally charged retard. You can always tell when he's posting because he usually starts telling you to kill yourself or posts>YOU JUST WANNA SHOOT ME IN THE BACK YOU JUST WANNA EXTRACT CAMP ME AND TAKE MY STUFFIn response to any actual discussion, he has an INSANE victim complex
I hate this weeks trials
man i sure cant wait to run 200 adrenaline shots and a venator and have to murder everyone i see in a pve stella montis night raid lobby to get all the pops myself this is really fun and a good system
Ok faggot. Tell me what you consider "complex social interactions."
>>553543715I'm pretty sure it's a PvPtard trying to make friendlies look bad, most PvE mains are chill
People are real turbo niggers in this game kek
>gingy already killed a HornetRIP her trials leaderboard
>>553544838who?
Why the fuck would I want to reset my blueprints? Are they high? Suck my dick it took forever to find them.
>>553545645Because they won't make any more content. The only choice is to replay the game.
>>553545106MY WIFE GINGY KEEP HER NAME OUT YOUR FUCKING MOUTH!!!!
>>553546042I'm already getting bored of the gameplay loop of finding them and I'm not even halfway done getting all of them. I think I'll give this game a rest until the devs decide to shit out some new fun stuff.
>>553546451is there a reason yanks are this retarded?
>>553533521spaceport is by far the worstblue gate is second place but here its more of a problem with the loot distribution, only undeground has anything worthwhile maybe village if you are generous but the rest feels empty
>>553543781I have honestly given up on Trials. They're so retarded it's unreal.
>>553545645Better question is why the fuck would you track blueprints and upgrade your benches and make better gear when a stitcher with an extended mag will beat 90% of the weapons in the game?
https://www.reddit.com/r/ArcRaiders/comments/1qa58ee/when_the_whole_lobby_wanted_a_rat_gone/Are you guys ever in lobbies that gang rape rats?

>>553547429kino
>>553542581damn really i thought the hullcracker was nerfed, do you shoot the legs out or just dump it all in the back while it's faced away with a lure grenade?
>>553547794>damn really i thought the hullcracker was nerfedlearn to think for yourself instead of reading shit on the internet, test your fucking weapons on your own.the only thing that was effectively nerfed is the explosive radius, meaning you can't stack damage like crazy just by shooting center mass, you now have to aim at weakpoints orbodypart clusters with deliberation.>do you shoot the legs out or just dump it all in the back while it's faced away with a lure grenade?3 shots to the knee, it gets stunned, kite to the back, 4 shots to the canister, core gets exposed + stun gets refreshed, dump 2.5 mags from sitcher, shit dies.Or you can do 3 shots, stun it, see that the main body tilts either left or right and shoot ~7-8 shots to the now visible core from the front, stacking damage together with like 2 legs and the front armor plates as well as the core.PvE is stupid easy if you have eyes and the slightest bit of deduction skills.
>>553548578nigga it was in their fucking patch notes don't give me a "think for yourself" when it's both time and investment to bring hullcrackers that i don't immediately have having not done the quest for the bp yet and when i want to do other shit with my limited time to generally playuseful info though i knew they also mentioned they wanted you to be more precise with your aim to get the most effectiveness out of it
>imagine bringing hullcrackers to experiment with in pvp enabled lobbies
can someone tell me what the fuck hit me?
>>553550289>I want all the reward and none of the risk!Play a different game then lol
Is it just me or do some of these mics sound awful? People will come up to me and start talking on mic and it sounds worse than kenny from south park

>>553552636>>553552720goddamn they need to tone down the range and damage. was way out of site after using 3 noise makers and nearly at full health
Could a Splatfest style event where donating supplies to say, Selene or Tian Wen work or would Wen just sweep every time?
>>553553484>goddamn they need to tone down the range and damageNo. Shit has a 5-second windup, a loud ass whirring sound, steam and particles coming off, the fucking queen starts glowing blue and it has a low turn-rate when firing.Skill issue.
>>553553487my nigga Lance would sweep every time
>>553553592at the range i was at along with the rain, fog, and shots being blasted by the rocketeer who was closer there wasnt any real audible or visual warning. especially since she just did the laser just seconds before.

>>553553975it does reduce visibility but... you can clearly see her charging the attack when you turned around in your vid
>>553553484Pretty sure it's there to discourage people from fighting her at extreme range, i remember seeing a vid of someone on top of the control tower getting beamed by it, you probably just hit that range limit

This moon is way too big. Yes I'm autistic, how did you know?
>>553556925for the trials you have to press a buton on the bunker 3 or 4 times and it takes a while to do so, its easly the shittiest one to do even in PvE lobies
>>553557679even pvp lobbies all band together for the stupid trial, it's the same waiting lines to press E everywhere.

>>553558084I have not shot my gun in over 20 matches and I am still getting KOS lobbies so I don't think it is actually a thing. I have died in over 12 of them, basic loadout not free.
>>553560386what region
I have achieved nirvana in the pve lobbies
>>553560560NA. I have defended myself a few times so maybe that's why?
>>553561501Shooting back effectively makes you 'hostile' from experience. You effectively have to roll over and die (or juke them) when attacked to get back into friendly lobbies.
>>553533521I agree with others, its by far spaceport. Even the points of interest are just large hangers with barely anything in there, about 2 of the areas are worth looking through and the big iconic part of the map is pretty tall, but its super small and the tunnels around it are just way too linear.Buried City is actually one I enjoy a lot. It's quite compact, it has the verticality needed and there's risks early to using rooftops where the Arc aren't as filtered down. City's biggest issue is that its arguably way too good and full of so many trinkets and valuables that you end up with everyone already gone by 10 minutes being up. Honestly, it needs less exit points.
>>553540365If they removed the safepouch from freekits it would solve a ton of issues. Literally, why does the freekit have one?
>>553562290>tons of issuesname 3
Where the fuck is the nerfs
>>553561501>defended myselfYou run
>been running around with two Lv4 weapons for weeks now >only now did i get the achievement to use two weapons of Lv 2 or higher in a raid why the hell are the achievements not tracking properly? its same thing with the practice range one
>>553562554>people on freekits rushing to areas just to suicide when they get the one key/BP/item they want, never having to interact with another player>being able to complete quests/trials with no investment or risk>no reason to even interact with your in-game currency apart from skill resets (lol), expeditions and expansions for inventory
>>553562290This is an issue that can be solved by tagging locked gate keys as weapons so it cant be shoved up their ass theyd have to extract with it which is still retarded in its own way.
>remove safepocket from no loadouts>people just bring naked looting mk1s>scrappy basically pays for them anyways
>>553564464At the very least, that would be better than what we have now. People at least lose something. Honestly, safepockets were a stupid fucking idea.
>>553563804Anon money is worthless in this game and those are the only things worth using it on, if you honest to god use any trader for anything you're beyond retarded
oh yeah double promotion this weekonly 2 more promotions until daredevil
>>553564709Which is why this game is broken because nothing has any risk and everything is so easy to get.BPs are thrown at you out the assValuables are so easy to findThere are numerous high value items left around even when there's only 5 minutes left on the clockMoney is so ridiculously easy to stockpile and the investment on things means nothing when the game just hands you everythingSwedes just fuck everything up because they made the game crybaby bitch mode where everyone has 10 safety nets to fall back on and if that wasn't bad enough the entire game can have player interaction ignored entirely
>>553562290>why does the freekit have one?But it doesnt?Running naked however does
>>553534772we need more bans
>>553564304Nah, they should make those keys just drop back in their original container when you exfil. Also a warning if you try it once, then a 24hr ban if you try again.
>>553565562>use thing as its intended >you should get banned for doing it?Just make the keys not shovable in your ass
>>553562290>>553563804As people have already pointed out, freekits don't have a safe pocketNaked runs and Freekits are essentially two completely seperate problems, freekits aren't doing naked runs because they don't have a safe pocket moron
>want to get these stupid trials out of the way>know if I start too early in the week I will only get sweatlords>have to>ignore carriables>ignore rocketeers>ignore pops>ignore hidden bunker>ignore hornets

https://www.pcgamesn.com/arc-raiders/first-expedition-wipe-statistics>"One of the bigger topics [of feedback] was the requirements for the final stage to get the skill points, and probably going out a bit too late with that information, because we wanted to hold off until we could calibrate it around the actual economy of the player base, rather than trying to guess really early on," he explains. >"So then, when we chose the number, which was the five million credits for the full thing, [we set] that as an aspirational goal that some players might achieve.

>nooo it disincentivized using good gearwhat good gearwhat gear were these players using before the announcement?full lengaries and purples with energy ammo and tons of expensive grenades?no they were just freekits thinking that's what you are supposed to be mad at because it was the big talking point at the top of reddit for a week
Ill bring tempests and bobcats when bringing purple shields is worth it. Thanks
ok bro purple shields now block all incoming damage until depletedbut you have a certain hitbox in your head/eyes that if someone hits, it instantly kills you even with a burletta
>>553562565Tuesday is patch day now
Wait, I will get demoted even if I dont join a board? Oh shit...I just wanted to go for daredevil and dip...
>>553570373yeah you'll have to keep doing trials every week until the expedition leaves to keep your rankwhich is why it's dumb to rush to daredevil this early when there's still 5 weeks left where you're gonna have to keep doing trials
>closer to lvl 3 explosives than i am to lvl3 gunsmithwhy are rocketeers more common than sentinels
>>553570440its a lot easier to maintain than rank uppeople are going to be pushing harder the later it is in the season
>>553570871sentinels don't respawn or fly up high in the air or have map conditions where they give out the drivers like candy
>>553570871because they show up a whopping 3 times in most maps IF they spawn at all, you're better off looting arc couriers for the cores than to actually find one
This game is miserable to play. Think I’ll sue embark for mental illness and debilitating health caused by this shit gameplay
>>553570440>>553571025this my plan is to stay in Daredevil if I promote coolif I stay the same coolI just can't demote
>>553570871Make sure to hit the crashed couriers since they can have sentinel cores.Blue gate usually has at least one sentinel either on the comms tower at pilgrim's peak or underground on the roof at the end of the car tunnels (same area as where you can often find the bastion).
>>553570871>>553571283I guess that's to remind people to search Arc Couriers during EMS

>>553571579harvester event
>>553568809I want to know how many people had to use both their stash and money to fill the 5m vs how many people had over 5m in cash so they could actually play the game with their built up stash in the last week. I'm of the latter and was playing like I was practically a neet (have a job, but spent 6-8 hours a day playing and near 16 hours playing on my days off), but I've seen way more posts with people who had their stuff split.

What is with PvP players getting so mad that they're matched with other PvP players and wanting to be able to play with PvE players so badly?

>>553578271the kind of people that bitch about not being able to go after PvE players isn't skilled enough to last in full blown PvP lobbies
>>553578271They don't want to play with people who treat them how they treat other players. Wild isn't it?
Why do freekits get mines and good grenades
it's a multifaceted problemthe completely flat/unbalanced gear curve means there's no point running "better" gear since you still die just as fast and don't kill any fasterthe very low TTKs (in part due to the dogshit gear balance) incentivise legitimately "toxic" rat nigger behavior like corner/door/extract campingthe completely unfettered access to unlimited numbers of free kits doubles down on both of the above issuesI legitimately think the game was more fun in the first monh or so before they added or adjusted the behavioral matchmaking to what it currently is - it felt like different types of players were far more evenly distributed in a given match, with a few KOS rat niggers, a few opportunistic pvpers, and the rest being mostly interedted in pve/lootingnow we've just got "pve only" land and "pvp only" land and basically nothing in between, and that's a shamesaying this as someone balls deep in the chungartha queue fwiw >>553578858because the devs exclusively play the game as a freekit KOS simulator and want them to have an edge
>>553578271Because PVP players are disingenuous fags posing about caring for player interacting when it's really about getting easy kills, they're the same fuckers that don't want the devs to touch the gun balancing as they enjoy stomping players with grey gunsOne thing I've noticed in the PVP lobbies is that most players you meet will have shitloads of hours in some PVP game like Counterstrike, Rust or PUBG. Meanwhile in the PVE lobbies you'll see a much more varied selection of the type of players you meet. Some are MMO players, MOBA players, just any singleplayer and what not. Very rarely you'll see someone with thousands of hours in the usual PVP suspects. Occasionally you'll see Hunt Showdown, and they're still more chill as it's a more chill game
>reddit spacing
>newfag calls forum spacing "muh reddit spacing hurr durr"
>>553579317>few KOS rat niggers, a few opportunistic pvpers,But why would I want this when doing a matriarch event?
>>553578271its more about them being jealous that PVE players can get free shit where as they have to fight to earn it or some bullshitjust go to stela as free kit and rush medical like 5-6 times without shooting to get into the good boy lobbies, its not that hard imo
>>553579351>as it's a more chill game>Hunt ShowdownDid pigs gain wings and i missed it? last i played it it was hell on earth?
>>553579727>PVE players can get free shitWhat free things do PvE players get? Last time I checked farming Matriarch and Queen raids wasn't free.
>>553580037im talking about the pvp chud pov, you being able to walk into medical get a free blueprint and then dipping without ever having to pull out your gun is "free" where as the pvp chud has to rape the free kits first for 3 batteries
>>553579560>fell for the /pol/ psy op
>>553578271The idea that you're put into lobbies that reflect your playstyle in such a binary way is asinine. It goes against the whole premise of the genre. If it was a softer thing where you got into lobbies that had a BIAS of PvP/PvE, then no one would care.I have genuinely not shot a single player nor been shot by a single player, I'm 19 hours in. That's a genuine problem from a gameplay point of view.
>>553580037>Last time I checked farming Matriarch and Queen raids wasn't free.Doing queen and matriarch in pve lobby is free, there isnt really any challenge you can cheese them easily, just google your favourite basedtuber for le epic stratNow go and try to fight them in nigger pvp lobby, all the niggers will come rushing at you because you most likely have brought over good shit on you and want it
>>553579724you may not want that specifically at that moment, but "not knowing" if you're going to get attacked or not is part of what makes the game experience actually interesting instead of rote pve "see robot click robot get loot repeat"you "should" be wary of other people around youyou "should" be taking defensive positioning and bringing utility kit that lets you escape or defend against another playeryou "should" also be ABLE to escape or realistically defend against other players if you're paying attention though, which is what is currently missing due to full fucking retard gear imbalanceif you "only" want to pve, there are other games not tagged "pvpve"they need to balance gear, then they need to improve matchmaking so it's not "99.99% PVE" and "99.999% PVP" and nothing in between
Being a "pure" pvp or pve player is a sure sign of low IQ. Every real human being I know playing this game enjoys both aspects and moves between them freely as circumstances dictate
>>553579727this is false, it takes 2 games for every 100 health points, a down adds 200 "health points" so do the math
I'm happy only playing PvE
>>553580486>premise of the genreThis is a new genre a new game. We aren't playing Tarkov.
>>553580635source?
>>553580887THAT place
>>553580515>if you "only" want to pve, there are other games not tagged "pvpveI'm playing this game though and I join only pve servers.
I pvp in duos with my friend And then I go and play pve in solo lobbies :)
>>553532725Played 60 hours in 12 days, finished preparing for the expedition, and now I completely lost interest in the game. I was in Chungartha for about 50 hours (never killed a player), then I got backstabbed one time I had good loot in Stella Montis and turned PVP evil since.I haven't touched the game for a couple of days, and I think I will just turn it on one last time to reset my raider and then abandon it definitely. The maps are boring, the game is repetitive, the quests are uneventful, and there is no way I will keep doing raid after raid to stack up 5 million for the 5 extra skill points. Just the thought of it makes me nauseous.My friends keep playing online constantly, but I just feel saturated, completely done with it.I guess it' a good thing, I can go back to living my life or whatever.The only scenario where I see myself going back to playing it assiduously is if they release a major update, or a new map, a very interesting and exciting overhaul.
>played 50 hours>backstabbed one timeai generated slop, stopped reading there try again
>>553580515>you may not want that specifically at that moment, but "not knowingI want to "know" I'm not going to get ratted if I'm doing the Matriarch event. >>553580515>part of what makes the game experience actually interestingFor you. That's your tastes. For me I enjoy different things. Like this game and how it currently works.
>>553581185NTA but it happenssometimes PvPers are so bad they get put into your matches
>>553580824ah yes the new genre that plays exactly like a genre that already exists
>>553581294I meant more like in 50 hours you'd expect more than only 1 backstab
>>553581371because the game is fucking broken
>>553579756I'm talking more about the pace
>>553573994
>>553579560newfag
>>553581185I never shot at or killed a player since I got the game a couple of weeks ago, so automatically I got put in the nicest most carebear lobbies where everybody is nice and friendly. The other day was the first time a raider said "Hey raider" to me, waited until I turned around to loot an arc, then shot me in the back.Obviously he had the default goalie skins, those are always tryhard nigger faggots who play the game to ruin other people's experience.
>>553581757Why does everyone wearing the goalie outfit act like an asshole
>>553580486it's also a negative feedback loop. The better you play (fast, stealthy, carefully), the EASIER the game becomes, which has been frustrating for me. And the bottom of ABMM is braindead boring easy, it's basically a cell phone game. I like to use speed, ziplines, and door blockers to burgle key rooms, which means I avoid violence and so keep getting in servers where I don't need to do any of that shit because players will see me looting and apologize for even opening the door
>>553581958Default goalie are indeed assholes, I think it's because they're new at the game and just play it like it's Fortnite
>>553581060This nigga bloggin
>>553581958free to obtain, can look goodit's just the next iteration of the "ryder" skin every rat nigger used a month ago
>>553582054set traps so you occasionally damage players to keep your abmm higher
>>553581757>get ratted ONCE after weeks of playing the game>go on 4chan to bitterly complain
>>553582114goalie and ryder do only look good if you're a jeet
I was in care bear lobbies for a while. I finally worked up the nerve to kill a couple innocents, and I was put in lobbies where 75% people are friendly, but 25% are KOS, which is very ideal imo. I have done a great job killing people who tried to kill me, but I notice that I don't enter engagements with them enough that I am slowly sliding back into care bear lobbies. I wish I could stay in those 75/25 lobbies without having to kill care bears.
>>553581958It appeals to a specific crossover of the population that wants the newest, coolest thing, but also for free. It was the Ryder, then the gas mask, now the goalie, and the next one will be in the next free deck (not the next paid one.)
>>553581723
>>553582054This.
>>553582356 miss the lil nigga like you wouldn't believe
>>553581757>>553581958Goalkeepers are always the ones who have anger issues.>>553582054It makes barricades useless unless you're in highly contested loot areas, it makes 80% of gadgets useless, it makes fire useless, it makes SO many things pointless to interact with. Its the same issue that so many games have had with pacifism when 80% of the game is built around PvP.People are just fucking weak. I ALWAYS get to loot first (no shield, max'd skills for speed) and people just watch as I sprint out with BPs and other valuable shit. They don't fire at me, they don't intrude and try and fight for loot spots (why would they, the game doesn't incentivize it).I'm not asking to be dropped into bloodbaths, I'm asking for people to play the game with reasons behind their actions, and for them to seem like actual human beings rather than just robots with one setting.
>booby trap door to a room>guy comes in anyway>dies to my mines>suicidesI have to guess some newfag who didn't know what a barricade was
my comfy ancient fort runs keep getting interrupted by people running the trial gay!
I run the golden jacket set, and occasionally the luna set. Most of the outfits in this game look like crap desu.
>>553582709yep
>>553582236Read my full blogpost retardI didn't come here and complain, I simply turned evil and started getting drafted into hell on earth PVP lobbies. Which was a refreshing change of pace, for the next 10 hours or so, but now that became boring as well.
>>553582815meanwhile>play The Finals>all the cosmetics look great>hate the gameplay
>>553582485>People are just fucking weak. I ALWAYS get to loot firstthe big disquieting moment I had with ABMM was when I got to Spaceport launch tower, totally untouched, 10+ minutes in - four games in a row. Chungartha players literally won't even touch spicy loot rooms, either out of fear of confrontation or because they assume they won't win the race to get there first.
>>553580515Well said. I just entered some lobbies that are mixed as said here >>553582254But it is a hard needle to thread. Very easy to get sent to one hell or the other.It is so much more fun when you 'don't know' how others are going to act and it could really go either way. That adds so much to the game to me. Really made it more fresh and engaging.
>>553583239I've noticed it on numerous maps. People just don't even bother to stay in the same area to loot it out. Understandable if you get keys/valuables that are worth a shit ton, but SURELY there are people who need to stick in a big loot area for industrial/tracked items?Spaceport has like 3 areas where you can even get loot, I don't understand how I find so many of these high-value areas untouched.
>>553583534more people than any of us expect are probably just mindlessly following the most recent jewtube "100% safe guaranteed blueprints EXPLOIT route on (map)!!!11" streambait bullshita week ago, I very rarely saw anyone using the stella security room shortcut or autistically opening every single ash tray on the map, but now it's 100% cleared every time except for the random containers that weren't in the recent "best loot route" videos
>>553583929My golden goose for springs and mechanical parts is loading bay in stella people check the boxes for bps but will leave 1-3 spring spawn/recyclables. If the bastion isnt dead by full clear for me ill deadline it for 4-12 advanced mechanical components. Its comfy and no youtubefags enlightened people on spring end game reality. 12-20 springs and countless adv mech components which are basically +2 springs each as i dont have to refine them myself.

>>553582485>play the game with reasons behind their actions, and for them to seem like actual human beings rather than just robots with one settingYou are low IQ lol. Why the hell would I shoot you over some trival chance at some loot? Then what? I get sent to hell on earth lobbies and then have to kill more people? It's literally not worth it. Besides you wouldn't have anything worth taking anyway.
>>553585017Yes, that's the main problem that the game has. I'm glad you figured it out.
>>553585391If you want people to shoot at you then go into the higher aggression lobbies retard.
>>553584353yeah I am killing every shredder I see purely to break down their gyros at this point tooindustrial areas as a whole are often overlooked as loot spots since pretty much none of them are tagged as "high loot" areasit's a bit different in stella since the entire fucking map seems to have a baseline higher loot value
>>553583929isn't "loot per minute" one of the matchmaking dimensions? maybe you're getting lobbied with better looters
>>553585621Why would I shoot at anyone? You've just said it yourself retard.There is literally no point to me shooting anyone. I am getting BPs, all the materials I need, everything valuable from the areas I get to first. People watch me leave and they see me in animations and I have no worry they will ever shoot at me because there's no reason for them to shoot at me, and there's no reason for me to shoot at them.People shooting at each other are just wasting their time and other people's time. It's a net-negative for the player shooting because they're thrown in with deathmatchers. The entire game's ABMM is a stupid idea. There's no "unpredictablity" like Embark claims in >>553584687 because why the FUCK would anyone shoot anyone else? The most unpredicable part of this game is whether or not a Rocketeer will instantly land down on me 5 minutes into spawning. Other players are more or less set dressing, and everyone saying "duuur just go shoot if you want PvP" doesn't understand how people play videogames.
>ITT: people discover greed
>>553585621okay>blast a few chungies to get into PvP matchmaking>they have melties over the mic>they go on reddit and 4chan to whine about how violent PvPers are
I'm scared of the leaderboard
>>553585621>>553586469Wait until extract, and say "I'm sorry I don't trust you"and down himthen just extract, can't get mad over keeping your loot and some guy being paranoid
>>553586952>and down him then just extract, ??? how am I supposed to collect his Anvil IV if I do that?
>>553587120I know it's hard to imagine what it would be like if you didn't eat breakfast this morningBut your post was complaining about getting into friendly lobbies over time, well that is one way to avoid that and you can stay in your 25/75 lobbies
just today today I finally found an extended light mag 3, compensator 3 and an angled foregrip 3. Time to mass produce some obnoxious stitchers
>>553587232>I know it's hard to imagine what it would be like if you didn't eat breakfast this morningthis is ironic because you've clearly missed the point>chungies assert that ABMM isn't a problem>regular people have to sealclub chungies to get out of weenie hut jr's>chungies complain about getting sealclubbed, re-assert that ABMM is necessary I'm not going to go out of my way to cushion the blow because you having a meltie isn't my problem
>>553586290I think the ABMM is absolutely based. It also isn't binary, your behavior is. The algo seems to take both aggression and gear score into account. The people complaining about no pvp in their lobbies are also running around naked. Gear up. Bring something worth losing. You'll be matched up with other people doing the same and behaving the same (but you'll still die to a freekit who spawns at 17 minutes.)
>>553587625>>regular peoplePvPers aren't regular peopleYou're all just waiting for the next FOTM game
>>553587638>It also isn't binary, your behavior isMy behavior is binary because why the fuck would I change it?You're STILL not providing any reason to. The only other threats in my lobbies are ARC. Players do not shoot.
embark trying to appease everyone with MM will end up killing the gamepvp only lobbies are shit pve only lobbies are shit abmm is shit and i don't know how they fix it 'content is also getting stale unless you have autism to get every BP
>>553587961>unless you have autism to get every BPme

i think they should add more content instead of worrying about shit nobody cares about like muh pve and pvp
https://www.reddit.com/r/ArcRaiders/comments/1qauhfq/arc_raiders_devs_are_looking_for_new_ways_to/it's interesting to read what all the battledad casual gamers with 5 kids, 4 pets and 30 minutes a day to spare think about wipingthere's a lot of them that say they've finally managed to get a comfortable amount of loot and a good amount of blueprints, so they'd never wipebut I'm curious, what do they even do in the game? with that kind of mindset aren't they effectively done with the game? if they're not wiping, when are they quitting?
>>553588171post your leaderboard scoreswonder if people are already nolifing this one
>>553587961>pve only lobbies are shitI like and prefer them.
>>553588308i dont give a shit about the leaderboards, i just want to get the 3 star for the potential blueprints.
>>553588427whoa nice, and yea I was just curious
>>553588171>anon gets into the sweaty first-day trials cohortoh no no I'm so sorry for youalso trial reward blueprints should 100% be weighted toward those you don't have already, being completely random is fucking dumb
>>553588545having the other garbage is fucking dumb toowow a shield recharger, cant just fucking craft one of those
>>553588545i got really nothing else to do other than blueprint hunt, trials help with that
>>553588545he may have avoided the sweats, another factor for leaderboards is the time of day you join themif not, then maybe that anon isnt playing NA, but who knows, this leaderboard shit seems like its all over the fucking place sometimes
>>553588630fair enoughall I need now is the tagging grenade, tempest, vulcano, and the energy weapons
>>553588376>everyone runs with stims to the best spots and presses E on everything simulator>if you get a bad or late spawn you get nothingit's still shit once and even more once the novelty of the game wears off
>>553588545I tried this, waited until Thursday morning to do my first trial, at first it was alright and seemed the leaderboard was barely full and the max was at 8k points, however as I did more trials it changed me to a whole different leaderboard where #1 was at like 150k.Needless to say I ended up at 48# place.
I am so tired of the third person peeking shiteWalking by a doorframe or a corner is pretty much a death sentence
>>553589863>he doesn't carry 4 stacks of lil smokies and preemptively smoke every single doorway and cornerha-ha!
Anyone want any of these blueprints? Willing to trade for a tempest BP or any other pink BPs. Can offer LVL3 survivor or LV3 defensive aug.
>every single blue rarity gun is Medium?
>>553590258I can't tellis that extended barrel blueprint?I don't think I have anything to trade but was curious
>>553590258sir can you give to me for free?
>>553590258>>553590778next to the defibs*
>>553590649make burletta grey, switch stitcher to greendrop bettina to blue instead of purpleadd a purple semi-auto marksman rifle with a 5rd mag to take bettina's old spot>>553590778the one that's second row third from left is extended barrel, yeah
>>553588823Besides tempest which is gay rng night raid looting the rest aint too bad. Chungus harvesters might make energy weap a headache though
Looks like I'm infect too, every day when I log in I get faced with this now.
>>553591084I am fairly certain they fucked up droprates for certain BPs like tempest recentlyI saw way more people posting tempest blueprints before the last expedition
>>553591807>>553591084how do you get tempest and volcano BP I've never seen them. I see bobcat all day
>>553591578you know you can stop this easily right?
>>553547429>get shot>move further out in the open and toward dangerSo this is why they want the pve lobbies...
I have achieved optimal playstyle;>kill niggas on sight for a while>when it gets too sweaty to keep up, stay to myself and go through a couple quests >kill niggas againrinse and repeat. it will be a shame when I finally run out of quests
>>553591919tempest only drops uring night raids, any mapvulcano only drops during hidden bunker (supposedly from any container, but higher chance from within the bunker itself)
>>553591919Vulcano is unique to Hidden Bunker it can spawn in any container during that event. Tempest ive only ever found 3 during Night Raid Buried City but ive seen others get it on nights at other maps.
>>553590778>>553590861>is that extended barrel blueprint?sure is, no idea where I got it>>553590840>sir can you give to me for free?nothing in life is free but you can have the lower-tier BPs
>get the bp from the 2 star instead of 3 star
>>553587625Kek. This post is so funny because its true. Embark created a fucked up system.
I only need the bombardier cores to finish my lvl 3 benches :)
>>553593839Buy a deadline mine for 15k go deadline fat fuck in stella, victory.
>>553593909just gonna wolfpack it I got the bp. that's what I did for the bastions
get killed by some nigger with TTV in his name so I scream fuck you nigger repeatedly, go to his channel find out he's streaming then report him for racism to twitch
>bring a fully upgraded, and modded bobcat out for a spin>get molested by a guy with a kettle IIIcool
>>553594157he or his watchers can get you banned from the game for the same thing
>>553594157clip it
>>553594374don't care, twitch streamers are cancer
>>553594274other than boredom, there's zero reason to use any high-rarity gear right nowbalance is nonexistant, ironically because they tried too hard to make everything "viable"
>>553590927>make burletta grey, switch stitcher to greenthen we have kettle and kettle 2 electric boogaloo at grey>drop bettina to blue instead of purple>add a purple semi-auto marksman rifle with a 5rd mag to take bettina's old spotjust rework bettina at that point
>>553588278>but I'm curious, what do they even do in the game? with that kind of mindset aren't they effectively done with the game? if they're not wiping, when are they quitting?Congrats, you realized why knowledgeable players say this game will not last.
>>553590927>make burletta grey, switch stitcher to greenburletta is already better than stitcherhere's what must be done:>Stitcher -> base mag -5 rounds, 5% nerf to RoF and recoil>Kettle -> rework: hold M1 to noisily charge up your shot, uncharged shots do almost no damage>Venator / Osprey -> ammo & parts changed to light/heavy respectively>Bettina -> rework into semiauto; 20 damage per hit>Bobcat -> +20 mag sizeI wouldn't shed any tears if they nerfed anvil either
>>553588278>but I'm curious, what do they even do in the game? with that kind of mindset aren't they effectively done with the game? if they're not wiping, when are they quitting?it's possible to just play a game for fun instead of constantly grinding to make number go up
>>553597605what fun is there to do in this game that isn't pvp though
What's wit the zoomer "sassy" humor in this game? Can't I buy some shit to a trader without getting some lame joke thrown at me? It's painful enough the fucking UI is a nightmare to navigate.
Is the game now fine to get into? I've genuinely divorced from bothering with competitive PvP niggery ever again. And to see this faggot throw a maldy surely means something good is being done right?
>>553597298it doesn't even need to be a "noisy" chargejust a 0.5-1s charge to do meaningful damage alone would balance it, and likely be a bit too heavy handed unless it was substantial damage>make venator light ammofuck you>>553597948always has been, you fucking sheep
>play the finals for red ryder skin>like the finals pvp more than arc raiders>no vg general for the finalsthe finals player base is that small huh
>>553597948>tension and uncertaintyisn't synonymous with pure PvE neither pure PvP, everyone involved trying to comprehend what is written is just retarded
>>553597671hey, don't ask me. I PvP for fun despite having a completely-packed stash and virtually everything done. >>553598060>it doesn't even need to be a "noisy" chargeI like the noisy aspect because then it becomes worthless for extract ratting and backstabbing. then it can still be good without being a frustrating freekit gun
>>553597948>enderslmao
>>553598274banished to /vm/ with month long threads
is it just me or is the Venator broken as fuck? I like this more than the Kettle
>>553599113>the Venator broken as fuckif you can land headshots you melt a light shield in 0.4s
>>553593995Oh bombadier my bad. Yeah also buried city is where i did my bombadiers. Deadlines are just more fun to me and guarantee the kill in 1. Good luck anon
>>553591923How?
>>553599113yes venator still the best gun. great at all ranges, lightweight good agility good economics good damage easy to control shots
>>553599246You just throw the deadline, right?
>>553599832Break 1 leg with a ferro shooting yellow elbow joint thats exposed in 5-7 shots usually and go plant it on the yellow soft spot on their ass while their fat ass cant move for about 10 seconds after breaking the leg. Gotta be somewhat near to get behind them quick after leg break.
>>553599229my bad 0.6s, 0.4s was before the nerf, still the fastest ttk in the game outside of macro kettle
>>553600258>>553599832or just toss a decoy nade somewhere out of its direct line of sight then run up behind it and plant the deadline
>>553599113Anvil and Venator combo and I feel like a bad motherfucker
>>553601506do smoke grenades blind bastions?
>>553601506as leg breaker anon ive had decoys fail for unknown reasons resulting in my ass becoming swiss cheese but breaking a leg never has failed for me
>mfw everyone gathered down in the metro station listening to fellow chungarian play the flute waiting for the train to arrive
>>553601645if they are already aggro'd on your ass - no, otherwise yes they are just infinitely in the "suspicious" state
>>553601645yeah, photoelectric cloak also works>>553601990if you don't throw it out of their immediate LOS, or there's other flying arc nearby that also aggro it, they break it by shooting it
In a month or two, they need to release 20 new items and associated blueprints to keep the game alive.
>>553601645After several tries they work like 30% of the time on bastions
>>553603319I only care about maps
>>553597948Enders is only sometimes right when it comes to Battlefield, I wouldn't take his opinion on anything else seriously.
>>553602524I am so happy they added the duet harmonizing if two flutes play. It's always so fun finding another to jam with.
I'll have you know that I for one enjoy my carebear lobbies.
>bastion dropped 9 cellscrazy
>>553605339instruments should be able to be used from a safe pocketthey're such a massive pain in the dick to get, particularly the guitar, that taking one out for almost a guaranteed loss to some knuckle dragging mouthbreather who will probably just sell the fucking thing is a dumb thing to do
>>553597948I very rarely encounter people who are PVP'ing. When I first started I slimed some yn's who were AFK and I immediately started getting gunsmoked instantly upon enetering any lobby. I'm now pure Chungarthan.
What's the best medium gun parts farm
>>553606669harvest simple gun parts from wasp corpses no one bothered to loot and craft them
get shat on clanker
>>553606780that's assuming I have the medium gun parts blueprint
>>553608258Gun parts have blueprints too?
>>553602524Christmas night a Spanish man played guitar at metro in Stella Montis. It was surreal. I tipped him a purp.
>>553608358yes, isn't that tanoshii?you even have blueprints for essential items like defibrilators
>>553608512I have a ton of debif prints from just Medical scavenging on Stella for Expedition 2 mats. But I don't remember picking up gun part BPs this or last season. I thought they were one of those essential materials you can only find topside, like duct tape, springs or magnets.
>>553608512I looted two defib BPs in buried city the other night. I handed them out.
>>553608512>blueprints for essential itemsthey should be in the questline
lol, lmao even
>>553609649Just turn on the flashlight when you shooting someone. It helps you see, but doesn't illuminate your own body, just the surroundings in front of you, and blinds the enemy.
>WAAAHHHH CONSOLE PLAYERS ARE CHEATING WITH LEGAL AIMBOT REEEEEthe very next day>Turns out aim assist only works on PC controllersYou niggers crack me up.
>>553610831nah, it's even funnierthe same aim assist exists on all platformsbut for whateverfuckingreason, the strength is tied to framerateat 60fps it's basically nonexistant, which is what console peasants get to play atat 240fps (high end gaming PC) it's just as good as "cheating" aimbot software lmao

Torrente is fucking awful against ARC, holy shit
>u can find blueprints in breachable containersJust found barricade blueprint in pic rel
>>553612661Nah, there's plenty of rats in Chungartha. They are just bottom of the barrel quality. These rats are lucky to get a kill even with first shot advantage.>inb4 not me, I die ten times on purpose just to shit up your lobbiesYeah, sure you do
>>553613180yes, square rusty metal boxes are one of the ones ive found snap hooks in EMS basically always.
>>553612982Yeah, except bigger ones. I feel like it just pushes small flying ones around
>>553611535>tickrate tied to frameratehow many times do devs need to fuck it up to learn from their mistakes
>>553612982It's actually really good if you can tuck the muzzle right into the core. I don't use torrente to pve, but I imagine it must shred once the armor is peeled.
>>553613957dps is good, ammo efficiency is notI've seen some people use it to strip the lid off a queen/matriarch to plant a deadline directly into the core.
>>553608258kill bastions then, the core drops anywhere from 2 to 5.
>>553614292at that point just use a bettina to pop the lid - it's probably cheaper to craft/use and torrente is better suited to closerange pvp anyway
>>553614798can you do it in one mag though? 20 ammo wasn't enough to strip leg armor before, I have no idea if 22 is enough to strip that or even the lid.
Is night time more dangerous
>>553612982i use it with an anvil against grenadiers and bastions. use anvil to break a leg then get behind them unload with torrente to break back part which stuns them again then shit on the core
>>553615590doubled arc spawns give or takemore rats because extracts are limited + no hatchesloot is better on average so people are pvping for it more

>>553608509Hey that was me
>>553624592Pointless to do because you always spawn on the other side of the map from it, or you spawn 10 minutes into the lobby and 3 other people are there before you.I don't understand why even on Dam, they've significantly lowered to rate of spawns. I've gone at least 3 close spawns, ran the entire perimeter twice each and never seen them.Swedes are fucking stupid. They probably took out guaranteed spawn points without adjusting random ones and shipped the hotfix without realizing.
>>553621462you can put the deadline directly on him

Quick rundown on Il Toro?
>>553633204Probably the hardest hitting gun in the game. I'm pretty sure it beats any thing else if you're peeping shots behind a wall or door. If you want to see what it can do I'd highly recommend watching Cloasky. That mf has won multiple 1v3s after peanut goes down doing dumb shit.

Tell me why being a rat is wrong. Why should I do all the hard work raiding when I can booby trap the exit or an area near it and collect the loot you gathered for me?
>>553635121Im upset
>>553635121wasting someone elses time, essentially what killed any friendly players in other extraction gamesit's fine and within the games parameters, it's more of a "social wrong" where its not really wrong, it just feels shitty to the other person, and a lot of white people understand>if everyone acted this way society would collapsehence the PvP lobbies always being shit
>>553635121from a purely pragmatic standpoint, if enough other people do the same rat nigger thing you do, everyone they're killing will eventually just stop playing the game and you won't have anyone left to be a rat nigger to
>>553635460>>553635426>>553635121If you don't know if someone is going to shoot you, you *have* to shoot them unless you have a very clear way to avoid interacting, and you know for sure they didn't spot you. A minority of hardcore PvP players would easily turn the game majority-KOS, and that's exactly what the game was in server slam.It's why we had a bunch of threads talking about how no one ever does end-game PvE content like Queen or Matriarch post-launch. And the time those threads started being replaced with "just had an awesome lobby that..." was around the time I noticed heavier ABMM.
When did they add the carebear lobbies?
>>553635783From the very start. They've always been there and were speculated and talked about in these threads. But the PvP autist would say it's fake over and over.
Tips for naked runs?
>>553636013lube up so nothing can grab you while opening every container and ruining pve
>>553635976no you idiotin that interview with the studio's ceo everyone references, he explicitly stated they started applying the action based matchmaking system a couple of weeks before thenanecdotally the matchmaking queue when the game first released was very different and much more mixed with a balance of both pve and pvp players in the same matches, than the strict delineation between pve lobbies and pvp lobbies we mostly see now >>553636013take off all your gear???profit!
>>553636230>in that interview with the studio's ceo everyone references, he explicitly stated they started applying the action based matchmaking system a couple of weeks before thenobviously they are lying considering 1000s of peoples personal experience before then>b-b-but launchyeah LAUNCH
>>553635976Honestly a few weeks ago it didn't feel nearly as strong, I think part of it is because there is actual confirmation it is a thing now so people are going to act accordingly to whatever type of lobby they think they are in, less paranoia.>>553636013Depends on what you're looking for, hospital on buried city, anywhere on stella (don't ignore suitcases or the bots you breach), and research on dam (during events) are all good spots for BPs in my experience. Spam suiciding and dying to other players also gives you the added benefit of getting into friendlier lobbies as well, meaning you can get greedy on a naked run and try to stuff pockets fully (most degenerates just loot a single BP and instant suicide)I personally pocket stuff naked on stella chungoid servers and can leave with 2-3 bps and other goodies pretty often
>>553636230>that interview with the studio's ceoYou are so retarded. Ceos aren't very into the details. They focus on big picture things not stuff like this. I'm not going to argue with you about this again. It was clear to so many people that friendly lobbies existed before they ever said anything about it yet your retarded ass is still denying it.
PEANUT IS STREAAAAAMING
>>553635976Nah, pre-expedition even though I played like a chungarthian the lobbies were mostly mixed. I didn't experience sneedsome chungus lobbies until post expedition.
>>553636490>Honestly a few weeks ago it didn't feel nearly as strongIt was the same. If you think it was different it's because you weren't in them. Just so we're clear it wasn't as binary as full friendly or full pvp.
>End of the weekend, before I go to bed I do some friendly runs and let myself die to secure my place in chungartha>Weekdays I'll loot up, mess around with friendlybros, gear myself back up, and get myself a much chiller experience for after work game time>Friday hits and I start PvPing againCurrent system probably isn't good longterm but man it is comfy right now
>>553636585How is this guy so popular and why am I hearing about his slop so much?
Doing PvE endgame without friends is a pain, and also doesn't feel worth it.
>>553636490>Honestly a few weeks ago it didn't feel nearly as strongalso people started exploiting itand then you could just literally see it for yourselves, would not be surprised if a majority of the playerbase is like>oh yea everyone in arc raiders is just super friendly all the time, never had a bad experienceor>nobody is ever friendly in this game, idk what other people are talking about I get shot in the back all the time>*proceeds to kill people and shoot people*>what, that's how you're supposed to play extraction shooters, idk wtf friendly lobbies are>CEO:friendly lobbies are a thing>"WHAT">"ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME">"THATS WHY IVE BEEN DYING THIS WHOLE TIME">"IM NOT SHOOTING PVE PLAYERS IN THE BACK?">proceeds to play 10 matches of suicides>shoots 1 guy in the back>repeat

>>553637657You don't have to finish it, you have to confirm something at the end, but we don't even get that window for like another month and half
>>553637657anon...
>>553637657Please don't tell me you donated any resources. GG RIPS
>>553637657You will become stronger for completing the expedition, anon.Let your raider go.
how many expeditions are you planning on doing
Anyone want any of these? Willing to trade even if it's just seeds
>gold raider toolnoice
I declare war on Chungartha. I will abuse the system to get into their lobbies and annihilate them.They must be destroyed.
>>553638546>rats one player every 10+ rounds>that player has enough shit in their stash to rebuild whatever they lost 50x overcool story bro
>get in the wholesome care bear lobbies and open boxes for hoursSo now what?
>>553639030You loot up for the real endgame (PvP) Or if you're the specific kind of autist that just likes opening shit over and over with the occasional vc you do that
>>553639030Man kids today don't know how to play a game unless its fortnite or has a checklist
They really need to reduce the amount of people per map it's so fucking ridiculous. With the shit balance and the matchmaking that puts you into rathell the moment you fire a single bullet at someone there is literally just 0 reason to play this shit solo. The maps are too populated. You either are in chungartha where every single fucking container is picked clean before the 25 minute mark because of so many people or you are in rat hell where even firing your gun once has 3+ people rushing to your location to third party your fight. This is so boring. If you aren't the first spawn in chungartha you may as well just alt f4 because you are going to spend 15 fucking minutes wasting your time to get literally fuck all. If you get shot at by someone in ratkanda and kill them you have to deal with 2-3 new people who show up to kill you. It's just BORING. BORING BORING BORING. FIX BALANCE, FIX NETCODE, FIX SPAWNS, DELETE FREEKITS, DESTROY THE MATCHMAKING ALGORITHM, AND LOWER THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE PER MAP BY 25%
>>553639404>we don't do gear based matchmakingObviously a fucking lie, or they call it something else "value based matchmaking"

Remember guys there is a marketplace on metaforge where u can trade for items. Mostly blueprints.
>>553628327a wigro was scared desu
>>553642190dont they just want seeds
>>553642190I've considered it
>>553637958>>553637751>>553637740I donated only the arc metal piece thing, dassit. Sounds like I'm safe.>>553638027No. I JUST started playing this week, I barely found like 3 blue prints. Imagine restarting all that, fuck no. I'd rather get my guy to the apex in terms of resources and blueprints and so on, and after a while of enjoying that maybe let go.
>>553635426>if everyone acted this way society would collapsebut video games are a nice playground for that because nobody actually loses anything
>>553643298You are safe, the other guys are just trolling ya
>>553643301Actually people are realizing through this game that their time is a resource, obviously unaware of it beforeBut embark is already taking advantage of that>friendly player dads who died too much feel their time is wasted>player retention = player having game open>player having game open = more chance they spend money in cashshop>players who quit because "time wasted" are lost potential revenue>thus they invent "friendly lobbies" where people can just PvE in peace>and "hostile lobbies" where people can have fun PvPing like they want
third person pvp is an abomination
>>553642190>>553643279It works well>>553643126No, you can filter seeds or bartering. Most people want to trade blueprint for blueprint.
>>553643725>everyone wants Tempest blueprint
>>553643301when a game dies because of the collapse of its model of a high-trust society when everyone starts acting like a nigger, it's no longer available to play, which sucks if you liked it and had fun playing it>>553644121they 100% fucked with the tempest droprateI wouldn't be surprised if it's actually bugged
>>553643725when I'm searching orders are all those people online, or am I going to message someone and then wait like 4+ hours for a response
>>553643571I think you're wasting time by attributing elaborate conspiratorial fantasies to a video game developer who is clearly in over their head
>>553644378that's not a conspiracy, the player retention thing is just commonly known in the game industry now, and the PvE vs PvP lobbies are already confirmed
>>553643725>>553644319nevermind I see the "time posted" now
>dam control tower locked roomwhy is this even a locked room that requires a rare key? utter shit
>>553644312without the threat of conflict you would not appreciate the times that you feel safe around others in-game.
>>553636585Damn messed up getting a virtual BJ and still ending him.
>>553645154sounding like a giga nigga
>queue stella for the sole purpose of killing friendlies >keep getting sent to chungartha lobbies >"are you proud of yourself bro?">"congrats, you got a kill in arc raiders. is it your first?">"don't trust that faggot"I dont even loot save for ammo or guns. I live to cause chaos and waste time
>>553644312>When everyone starts acting like a nigger the game is no longer available to play This happened with dread hunger. The maps had fun progression and systems to engage in, but the nigger strategy was jumping off the ship immediately, scavenging the map for fuel, and dumping it all in the ocean or spamming totems. Players formed an unfun survival meta for meticulously gathering and contributing fuel to deal with this nigger behavior (kind of like how Chungartha was formed,) but this usually meant that the game ended before it even started based on whether the chimp succeeded or failed to bluff and/or cooperate with everyone right at the start of the match. If Embark doesn't balance the basic gameplay loop soon, this game will also die the death of a thousand tiny nigger pricks.
>>553645153sounding like a giga nigga
>>553646232I'm not mad, just disappointed
>>553646232I believe in you anon
>>553643571>and "hostile lobbies" where people can have fun PvPing like they wantNOOO NOT LIKE THAT! I AM A DISINGENUOUS PVP NIGGER THAT CAN ONLY INTERACT WITH MY HALF OF THE GAME (KILLING PEOPLE) BY PREYING ON CHADS WHO REFUSE TO PARTICIPATE IN MY NIGGER BEHAVIOR. PLEASE MIX LOBBIES AGAIN! REEEEEEE!
https://www.twitch.tv/theburntpeanut/v/2668536745?sr=a&t=15330sHow long would the game last if all matriarch lobbies were like this?
>>553647271lmao exactlyI seriously don't get those guys>the game isn't fun when someone better than you kills you all the timehuh gee, wonder how PvE players feel
>>553647329>watching this guy get revived like 5 times just because he's a streamer
>>553647329Without watching the clip, I can safely assume that Peanut's lobby is full of ratting niggers. Guess what? Every Matriarch lobby was already like that. It's literally why the ABMM was implemented in the first place. Niggers ruin everything and deserve to be corralled into ghettos with each other. Honestly, they deserve worse, but this is their best case scenario. Thank the developers for being nice and taking steps that make niggers seethe.
>>553647446Found the brown
I don't care what happened I'm killing anyone who wins a 1v1 at extraction I'm near/going to
>>553647816bro don't shoot I extract camped him for his stuff
>>553646525>If Embark doesn't balance the basic gameplay loop soon.No the pve lobbies will be fine.
>>553647551Don't guess how many matriarch cores he left with because of streamer privilege. >>553647640>Every Matriarch lobby was already like that.Not at all. Friendly lobbies are not a new thing.
Gingy sounds like she is tired of Peanut, that or doesn't want to sound too thirsty in front of Lamarr Blackguy
>>553647947I mean, I would leave Chungartha if the pvp was worth engaging with.
I killed 12 people in a chungus lobby, they deserved it.
>>553648468>Nigger can't count and still posts the numbersFucking kek my guy.

PvPtards don't realize how lame it sounds to brag that you went around annoying people in a video game. You think it sounds cool because you get to say "killed" but you didn't "kill" anyone, you didn't even "kill" them in the fortnite sense because they weren't engaged in conscious PvP with you. What you did was more comparable to the little brother pulling the plug on the xbox to make his brother mad; with the caveat that you're mom's favourite and your brother isn't able to retaliate in any way or mom will take away the xbox. You're a "booger guy".
Kind of want to try the trading marketplace
>>553649485>anon pulled the plug on 12 chungarthansthat does sound cooler
>>553649791We all knew the guy who pressed the power button on people's laptops in high school and said "u mad bro?"Nobody described him as "cool"

>>553649893Can't wait for the schizo to start posting that just accuses everyone of wanting to shoot him in the back whenever anyone discusses anything
>>553650172>hopefully he is able to teach these vegetative players the importance of situational awarenessIt's not important in the lobbies where they are generally placed, which is why they disregard it. You are mistaken if you think that losing one round in a few days means they are not playing optimally.>after enough stella montis active shootings the community will learn how to stay alive instead of grazing like cattleOver time they are going more and more cattle-mode. You have it backwards. Players begin hyper-cautious and learn to let their guard down because it is a more efficient strategy.
>>553650172*goes back to 50-100 matches of not having some aeshole shoot me in the back*I guess if you're on south american servers then you'll actually run into the same people over and over again, since only the rich there can afford videogames
>>553650172I watched a guy blink his flashlight as I reloaded my rattler in front of him. I put him down like a dog, revived him, then downed him again.
I've gained the confidence of raiders and killed them at extraction a few times. It's a pleasure of mine you could say, possibly the greatest of pleasures I have in this game.
>>553650414You sound like your life is unfulfilling if you get joy out of>gaining another persons trust>taking advantage of that trust and betraying them>having "the greatest of pleasures" for doing such act

They need a map where they put arc IN BETWEEN players and the loot. The arc just roam around like minimum wage security guards who can't be bothered any more.
>>553633204outclassed by the stitcher 1 at every distance or situation
>>553651047Stella is kind of like this, but it seems like the servers have a limit on the amount of arc allowed on mapYou see this happen when you use too many snitch scanners, and wasps just straight up explode on spawn because you've reached the arc limit

>>553652020You don't have to believe me, but you can easily infer what happened based on my ammo. There's always a winner in these types of situations.
I'm convinced chungarthians are the lowest IQ posters here simply because of how easily they get baited>LOOK AT ME GUYS IM KILLING FRIENDLIES>Gets tons of replies and engagement
>>553652106Amazing that in a neverending two-way discourse one side somehow sees fit to congratulate itself on the fact that the other side is replying to them. It just looks symmetrical to me dawg

>"h-he's right here! he's hiding behind the pillar PLEASE GET HIM!">"bro do you have a defib, that guy shot me for no reason">"BRO HE'S KILLING ME HELP"kek, nothing better than mag dumping a talkative chungy who thinks he's going to get a cheeky revive. I even do it if I'm being rushed because I refuse to allow them to return.
Wow that would be hugely shocking if the people who rat players just to get a mild reaction out of them also invent stories to get mild reactions out of people on 4chan. At least nobody on 4chan can try to make you smell their finger. Can you imagine? We definitely have a lot of "those guys" here
Why is this guy spamming about killing friendlies
>>553652541purists are easily riled up on both sides so people take advantage, no clue why this game has such a fragile community

>>553657037Because arc raiders is unique in its approach to "pvp" in it being completely optional and reflect you as a person in realityYou wouldn't see this in The Finals, because people are signing up for deathmatch type gamemodesIn arc raiders you don't have a choice in gamemode, you have a choice in your behavoir, that relfects you as a person playing the gameLike pedophiles coping with hentaiYou are inherently attracted to children hence why you need to add a bunch of>but she's 5000>and talks like an adultwhile still looking completely like a childOk so go jack off to it in private then?Same with PvPersYou are inherently engaging in an activity that ruins someone elses experience>but it's just a game>and it says PvP on the boxand you get your PvP lobbies where you can all have fun together, nothing wrong with that until people are taking joy in killing PvEers

>>553534772Devs that aren't retarded
>>553657715>PvPers have you so angryNo just explaining
I don't think I've seen a game that feels more fake than this game. Something about it just feels incredibly off.
>>553657316pve players literally signed up for it, they have their own hugbox servers already so i dont even know why it's a discussion. children can't consent, players in this game do. >but you're a bad person for taking the piss over people getting angrywe are on 4chan, do you think everyone here that tries to get a rise out of someone even outside of this general is a sociopath? this game is also very forgiving, you die one time out of a dozen runs if you're a friendly, there really is no issue
>>553657959I feel like they used AI for the cutscenes, and it's been confirmed the voices use AIWould not be surprised if it's used in other areas, people joke about the "Arc AI" but that might be real too, pretty sure theres a old walking tech demo of matriarch before it was matriarch, and that is likely using what people now call "AI"

>>553658151I'm goin on a tard conspiracy theory spree but I genuinely think this game is astroturfed to hell and back and player numbers fluffed up. Probably not shocking considering who embark works for but idk. To me this game as I said feels fake and off.

>>553663254well???
>>553663725in this scenario you don't have to worry about anything because you're dead

https://arcraiders.com/news/patch-notes-1-11-0>Kettle>Dev note: Reduced fire rate from 600 to 450. The previous fire rate was only realistically reachable by players using macros, which creates an unfair dynamic that favours using 3rd party software>Trigger ‘NadeDev note: Trigger ‘Nade currently dominates PVP encounters, and players favour picking it over all our other grenades. This nerf aims to make it less usable as a “trigger-in-air” grenade, whilst keeping its usefulness as a sticky bomb. Damage falloff has been rebalanced to concentrate the damage closer to the center of the explosion, and deal less damage further away. The delay between triggering the grenade and it detonating, has been increased from 0.7s to 1.5s, giving players more time to react, and making it harder to time the detonation in air.STITCHER???
>>553664643...that's it?that's the update? what the fuck?
>>553664643>STITCHER???fair and balancedlmao
>>553664643>>553664709LMFAO
>>553664643Undocumented changes include>Adjusted hullcracker damage model to reduce damage to unarmored sections of ARC. Damage remains unchanged to armored panels on ARC. The Hullcracker was designed to efficiently strip armor off of ARC and this adjustment falls in line with what the weapon was meant for.>Decreased sale value of energy rounds from 5,000 to 2,500 to fall more closely in line with the value of its component parts.
>>553664643so uh, what's the Burletta's fire rate? is it not just going to be the new macro gun?
Uhm if they nerf the stitcher how will people do the snitches get stitches acheevo?? THINK /arg/ THINK
This entire subreddit is embarrassing, they're never happy with anything. SO many people complained about Triggers nades and kettle, they FINALLY fix it, "Oh wtf that's it?". Lmao, you people are shameful.Even with the last update that had a shit ton of fixes, balancing, they cried their eyes out complaining.THE GAME HAS BEEN OUT FOR LIKE 2 MONTHS, CHILLYou're all going to be ignored by the devs, they couldn't care less about you spoiled brats.
All you fucks do is cry damn its annoying ...Thats it ..thats all...they could have done better...I want this ...I want that you entitled pieces of shit know nothing about what it takes to develop let alone update a game like this shut thee fuck up you wankas give them time to cook bitch boys
>>553665329Cant wait for the "this game is dead" posts
>>553665329>>553665523Spot on. As a dev myself (not game), this is disgusting to see.
this new outfit is garbage
This game is gonna go the direction of their other game, lmao. Was anyone else here around for the Finals on launch? >Pretty solid game, just had some glaringly bad balance issues>Devs go on a long vacation>Issues fester>Games starts bleeding players>Devs come back and just jerk off, let things fester even more>Game diesLooking like a complete repeat with this game, except it's 40 dollars
>>553665726I read someone said it looks like a steampunk stripper, and I can see it
>>553663156>chungarthians are welfare babies thoNo we literally farm and craft all of our stuff. We WORKED FOR IT and have MILLIONS in the bank.PvP niggers literally just kill you and steal everything and are poor. No workbenches upgraded. No expedition completed u til the last week. No money in your bank.
>>553665910full friendly lobbies are welfare lobbies, you are under no threat stuffing your pocket and i say this as someone that plays both sides of the game and is majority friendly
>>553665991Bad analogy, welfare doesn't protect you from evil in real life lmao
I want to use this trading marketplaceBut I have trade-anxiety
make it stop
>>553587686Regardless, Chad fucks while he's here and you're just a raped cuck
>>553666163>Bad analogy, welfare doesn't protect you from evil in real life lmao>>553665991Chungartha neighborhoods peaceful and safe, full of people wearing expensive gear and clothes.PvP ghetto welfare lobbies, they'll kill you over cheap trinkets, lie and betray, and extremely violent. If they see you with something expensive that they know they'd never be able to afford like a Hullcracker or Jupiter, they'll go out of their way to Rob and kill you. It's almost like real life.
>>553665910Are you being seriousI have finished workshops updates second day after wipe, I have like 4 mil and a fuckton of shit in stash, all trials are minmaxed and just 1x promo this week to cantina legend and all of this is done in duo KOS everyone Now see I wouldn’t say this is optimal or whatever but if you are able bodied you can sustain running venator/trigger nades etc nonstopWe only ever go free loadout if we lose twice in a row or if we start arguing why we lost the fight what could have been done differently to ventOnce we kill geared people on free loadout we go back to running kitted sets, obviously not everyone is able to do this but I have like 10k total hours in fps games so it’s not that hard to just kill everyone in this game
>>553667276>this is done in duo KOS everyoneStop lying. Very typical of the welfare to lie about how luxurious their life is.
>find weapon crate on night raid>arpeggio 1>find another>il toro 2When do the pink weapons start?
>>553667370So you just baiting, got it
>>553667382when you ignore weapon crates and go for drawers, cabinets and lockers
>>553667543>you're baiting but listen to how good I am at the game>it's easy for me to kill everyone and get rich it's so easy
>>553667272Art imitates life
>>553667894You find it hard to believe there are people out there who like to play games?
>>553664420If I saw this guy walking down the street I would assume he is one of those professional horse masturbators.
>>553668610How does one get this job? I'd like to send in my CV
>>553666570How do you put up with playing in cheater lobbies so often? Not sus at all that you probably get deleted in 350ms?
>>553668963they don't let you sample the goods anon
>>553669065Well, they do return some of the lost gear, I have like 10 unclaimed because no stash spaceI would say I am much more pissed about the fact there are so many things they just don't address: stella montis out of bounds, autoexec shit to disable smokes, il toro/kettle macros etcBut I would say this game is so broken right now you honestly can just blow up any cheaters with trigger nadesI am not saying you are bad but if you try to record your gameplay you will realize you play worse than you think: all the inventory management etc, since I started recording my gameplay a few years back I just stopped complaining about cheaters and don't really take other people complaining about cheaters seriously. Most of the time it's not cheats
>>553668963It's all about who ya know1)find someone trying to breed horses2)be brave3)???4)profit!
Isn't 1.5 seconds arming time still too short? Can't test in-game but I think you would still be able to time it pretty easily so it explodes as soon as it touches the ground.
a new narrative is formingif you don't like the new skin's cross-laced boots you're a porn addicted gooner as you're somehow drawing the parallel that cross-laced thigh high boots is something sexual or something
>>553669618for long throws its basically irelevant, for short throws you now give the target a second to dodge roll away, it isn't much but for PvP it's pretty significant
discord is cooking em right now
lel which one of you is this?
>The Devs need a buff, the data clearly shows they are underperforming>Make Devs Meta AgainLMAO
its been like 3 months with 0 new contenti think the game will die soon
Is Anvil I better than Ferro IV?
>>553670108>>553670203holy kek based discord
>>553670447yes
>>553669832>for short throws you now give the target a second to dodge roll away, it isn't much but for PvP it's pretty significant1.5 seconds still seems way faster than the fuze nade and if you arm it immediately after throwing, i imagine that 1.5 seconds feels less than a second after it lands on the ground.
Alright which one of you is this? You've really upset leddit this time.
>>553670447anvil still has a slightly faster fire rate but less accuracy
>>553670735What about damage?
>>553670721>jew>not kike
>>553670721whats wrong with this, its a jew that hunts
>>553670773damage is the same
>>553671185Neat, thanks. I'm trying to update my loadout, but without including any items I can't craft yet, like more advanced gun parts. I think Anvil only needs those for upgrades, but can be crafted with simple parts. Don't remember, since I haven't done it since before the reset. Ferro is usually sufficient to fight ARC in chungus lobbies.
>my kettle got nerfed NOOOOmy rapid fire controller ):
I just got ratted by an exfil camper, so I did the same to two other raiders in return, that felt so good to do someone.
pvpniggers lost again
someone exfil camped me so I went and killed 5 people in my pve lobby, it felt fair in return to make people lose some time since I lost mine
>>553672334you merely ensured it would happen to you again
>>553672640Get back in your luxurious beach bed.
>>553672334you have perpetuated the cycle of angersoon it will be visited upon you againchoose the path of peace
>no stitcher nerfThis gun outperforms several above its tierMake it make sense
>>553673214It's useless against ARC, a gun only relevant in ratkanda lobbies.
>>553673297I've destroyed rocketeers with a stitcher faster than I did with hullcrackers and equalizersit seems you might have a skill issue
>>553673381Proofs next thread?
if you don't like the new skin you have no fashion sense
what's the new skin i'm wage slaving
>>553664516Not the abyssusy...
same pls post it I work 10h a day
>>553664516The devs seem to have realized nobody wants to look at their shitty DEI face presets and doubled down on paid skins with fully closed helmets.
scroll up, retards
hm nyo
:^)
it will look cute on my female character :)
>>553664643>new patch, cool>look inside>2 slaps on the wrist>meta literally unchangedthis is sum horse shitwhere shield buffs?
>1.9gb patch for lowering kettle rate of fire, extending trigger nade explosion by less than a second and making some areas of stella darker I hate modern gaming so much its unreal.
blud still on dial up
>>553674941>>553674941>>553674941new raid
>>553639461I would really want private lobbies. I have 10+ work frens who I play arc with and there‘s currently now way except luck trying to get them in the same game. Obviously you can’t matchmake a 10-squad into duos or trios, so private instances are kind of needed for larger than 3 groups
>>553651435>I will kill you in real life>Your mother is a whore. Your mother is a whore.>I will kill your family>I know you are a nigger in real life>You are a worthless nigger>You are pathetic and your life is meaningless, killing people in this game will be your greatest accomplishment.Just some of the stuff I have said while I was getting killed by noobs.
