Eh I agree with this one. At most you can make the pink and gold guns better at killing ARC, but from a PvP perspective the balancing is fine for now.
>>
>>556324041
From a PvP perspective there are only like 2 good guns. Toro needs a firerate nerf, Venator needs to be toned down to not be able to do literally everything, and grenades need to be reworked because right now the best initiating nade is still the one that's supposed to act as a manual mine

don't start by buffing or nerfing weapons

start by buffing all shields across the board so TTK isn't calculated in fucking planck time

THEN you can adjustweapons as needed (durability in particular on purples is fucking Retarded)

>>556324847
bobcat is dogshit when stitcher fills the exact same role, for a quarter of the price
there is never ever a reason to run the bobcat when the stitcher exists
stitcher should probably lose the magazine mod slot or something
>>
>>556325514
>bobcat is dogshit when stitcher fills the exact same role, for a quarter of the price
That's a value proposition problem, not a balance problem. Bobcat with extended mag is faster ttk than stitcher and you're actually bad if you think otherwise.

Toro is fine. Shotguns SHOULD be monsters at close and medium range, not barely functional at close range and completely ineffective past that.

Venny does need nerfs, I agree. Lower fire rate, more recoil, smaller magazine, take your pick.

>Stitcher
Is fine. If you nerf it then casuals have no way to fight back against geared pvp autists.

>trigger nades
Eh just increase the delay trigger timer.

>TTK
Is fine.

>Shields
Are fine.

bobcat is also less accurate and has worse recoil than stitcher, meaning less bullets on target on average, which is bad when it has lower damage per shot to begin with

>arguing for weapon archetype instead of weapon balance
Fucking retard, toro outperforms even SMGs at a 20m range because choke 3 exists on top of already tight base spread. Combine it with TPP and corner peeking and you have a monster.
The fact that it is a pellet weapon also makes shields ineffective almost entirely, which is why even mediums get 2-shot.

>gear cost
The only argument you can make here is blueprints, loot is extremely easy to come by in this game.
This also applies to fucking casuals when they find a "good" weapon.

>triggers
>increase the trigger delay instead of deployment/activation delay
>on what is supposed to be a fucking manual activated trap
Actually braindead.

>shields/ttk is fine
Only in trios, otherwise you are flat out wrong due to initiative advantage combined with TPP.

I am not arguing for the retards anon, I know that the masses are too shit at games to enjoy good games. Helldivers 2 is an example.

You are genuinely retarded and should kill yourself, there is no reason the toro should be able to shield break at range or have the crazy firerate it does, it doesn't need to be a peashooter but it needs to be reworked

lol you can kill with a rattler, bringing the stitcher to ferro or rattler level doesnt mean you can never ever win a fight. disadvantage sure but not near impossible like tarkov-needing to hit between eyes or do no damage- levels of gear imbalanced.

This game is supposed to be faster TTK because if you made it long (1.5-2 seconds or more) then you will have these changes:
>Healing becomes too strong
>Stuns become too strong
>Longer range sniping and 3rd partying becomes more prevalent
<Most engagements become extremely focused on aim
Wait a minute on that last part, because some guns in this game take the same amount of shots to kill in the head as they do on the body.
Aiming also works different in this game compared to others because you have to stay still for the best shot, so this a TTK change is really a change to movement as well.
These are blanket changes that will be inevitable if TTK gets longer. It happened in several FPS games I've played before, so I know it will happen now.
Whether or not these changes will be fun or palletable for the majority of the playerbase is up for debate.
I always found personally that sweeping balance changes that screw with TTK and fucking suck dick and should never be done. Its always done with a bottom tier casual player in mind and never the majority who it should be aimed at.
Higher TTK is usually a sign of skill compression (from the floor and the ceiling at the same time).
Its really not fun when the majority of combat is roll/dodgeslop -> healslop -> tacticalsprintslop -> shootslop -> duckslopintocoverslop -> repeat[slop]
Seen it before in fucking battle royale games, arcade FPS, arena shooters, hero shooters, even tac shooters.
TTK adjustment every patch faggotry is the first sign of a shit game and shit balance team.
>>
>>556329497
TTK is barely an issue retards here get shot stationary while looting something by a rat, let it happen, die instantly, and then come here to cry about how the ttk is too low and there's no counterplay
>>
>>556329732
That is my opinion also. TTK is a non factor when both of you are not on an equal playing field, skill or positioning or otherwise.

>>556329732
Just watch a top pvp player like ninja or cloakzy. They literally heal in the middle of firefights all the time because they know how to push and maintain pressure. TTK is fine where it is.
>>
>>556329497
You only need TTK to be long enough to allow a single big mistake and remain actionable in the fight.
A single extra second give or take via shield buffs is more than enough enough.

Might as well start calling TPP prepeeking slop since you're so keen on calling everything that way.

The thing people who complain don’t understand is that vast majority of the players are casuals and they do not spend their entire time on forums and subreddits advocating for the same changes as people here do.

This is why embark should be extremely careful about listening for people asking for things like stitcher nerf. If sounds reasonable for white weapons to be weaker than higher tear ones. But the thing is, the vast majority of the players are casuals base will be stuck using those weapons most of the times.

If you make white weapons weaker they won’t be able to compete with everything else. And the people stuck using those weapons won’t be having fun anymore and then quit the game.

There are so many thing in arc raiders that from a competitive game balance perspective you can easily call the game unfair. And it is an unfair game in which player skill does not matter that much, any scrub can kill the best players by just being lucky or abusing unfair game mechanics. And that is good. Its not a bad thing at all. The unfairness is what equalizes the field allowing the casuals to be able to have a place in the game and have fun.

Arc raiders should absolutely ignore majority of the feedback related to combat balance and make their own decisions on what changes need to be made. Weapons are unbalanced. Yes, but thats fine. Arc raiders is a huge success so don’t fix what isn’t broken

>>556330928
I would agree if "good" loot was hard to come by but no, it's literally everywhere and the only difficulty you have in turning that into "good" gear is because blueprints exist (which is a different issue).
Higher TTK also means that weapon advantages/disadvantages have more time to shine in combat, your choice of weapon doesn't matter if you beam people a microsecond faster, the outcome is always the same.

Besides, even on a casual level it feels better to have the ability to return fire or actually deploy utility before dying than just dropping dead because the retards at embark decided that cheap shit should be the best and that amount of lethality is available to everyone.
As well as "good" loot being actually shit simply being antithetical to the genre.

My friends and I recently picked up Mario Kart again. Inspired by Arc Raiders we started just cruising through the courses with no real sense of urgency because we stopped actively working against each other. It's nice. There's a lot of stuff in the different maps backgrounds that are really interesting that I never noticed before because I was too caught up looking in front and behind me in the past. We still have to get past certain jumps and obstacles which is challenging and fun. When someone gets to the end we just wait there like an extraction until everyone is there and then we count to three and mob for the finish. We don't care who gets "1st" that's not the point. We do shoot off green shells though to add to the tension of the scenic drive but try to just drop behind items if we can or announce that we're setting off a "raider flair" if it's something that can't be avoided. But if anyone gets Blue shell they have to hold it til the end. It's like a courrier service. We're taking that package the whole way. My buddy, as we finish says "what can blue do for you" as a nod to UPS. Lol. I want to get more people involved but I worry about bad actors ruining the game.

Honestly, I wouldn't mind a PvE strength upgrade through enemy buffs or anti-pve tool nerfs.
Hullcracker is a beast if you know how to use it.

>>556336848
The quests are meaningless worthless dogshit. Every pther extraction game has quests that actually progress your account. You get trader upgrades or more stash or access to special items or whatever. The quests in this game outside of the hullcracker bp are all worthless fluff that dont progress anything and the story is turboshit. So yeah, the entire system needs a revamp and it's good someone is shitting on them. I haven't done a single quest since expeditioning and I dont plan to do any unless they announce 1 week before the next expedition that you need to do them all for the skill points or some shit.

Weapon rarities, shields, quests and other shit. It's so bad that the only progression mid-wipe is getting a utility blueprint like survivor/spray. And even then post-wipe you get 5 skillpoints max

Can you show me how you deal with bombardiers? I always get rekt by their rockets even behind cover.
>>
>>556339043
same shit just stay deeper in cover and bait them closer to it to flank after a leg break

or you can run up close to bait the pulse attack (they can't artillery you when you're that close), and if you're fast and precise enough just break the leg before it goes off and flank the usual way.
>>
>>556339234
I do use cover but like I said they somehow angle it perfectly to go through doorways or above cover every time.
>>
>>556339475
poke with a single shot then roll back to cover, also never right a bombadier without a roof unless you have a jupiter and at least 100m away from it.

have these lazy money-grabbing Danish fucks announced what the expedition skill points requirements are yet, or they just going to dump info 24 hours before reset with zero changes while they count their cash they made from this pump and dump
>>
>>556348465
are you throwing them in the air or to the ground. because i noticed the first time i used one i tried throwing it like a normal grenade and since it hit the ground it just poofed. you got to throw them high but closeish to your target
>>
i have never seen anyone use a shrapnel grenade and have never found one in the wild whats the point of them?
>>
>>556349047
I like how it feels too, but I waste so much time and ammo trying to damage Arc with it that I usually just recycle them. Bettina I've tried to make work even more, but it's just terrible. Tempest is a lot of fun because it can take Arc out and be a good backup to defend yourself quickly.
>>
>>556349582
the point is for it to be useless like 90% of the gear in the game, of course. Imagine if you, a precious freekitter, died to a geared chud's shrapnel grenade. How would that be fair?
>>
>>556349090
It's safe to assume it's $5m
>>
>>556351483
It could be $5m again, but they also said:
>Watkins explained that the “system will change” as Embark continues to experiment. After all, the game’s second expedition date is known, but it’s requirements still aren’t known. The developer explained that Embark is “not precious about” keeping the requirements the same for every wipe with the team planning to “keep adjusting to make sure it’s properly incentivising players”.
So they could rugpull us and have it dependent on certain Arc kill counts, quests completed, or 15 of every duck variant. Who knows. The fact we don't know yet is silly.
>>
>>556349582
I tell you this as the only person who ever used those regularly for some time
they are ok but in the end not worth it because you need springs to craft them
what makes them ok is that you can carry stacks of 5 and you can toss them almost instantly like in a second you have 5 grenades in the air
they would be a nice alternative to heavy fuzes if they didnt require springs
>>
>>556348465
if you direct impact with the actual wolfpack it will just disappear. Always throw them into the air rather than directly at ARCs
>>
>>556352153
needs to be just metal parts instead of springs
>>
>>556352468
yeah or let us craft springs in the refiner
why can we make all sort of mechanical and electrical components but not springs???
>>
>>556352815
springs are really easy to get
>>
>>556352815
FUCK NO, springs being FiR-only is one of the few reasons people even loot things on the map; making it enough to just "loot 5 stacks of basic material" is dogshit design for looting incentives.
The entire game economy literally holds on springs, cpus and duct tape.

I'd be happy if every other tier of weapons got nerfed into the dirt and pinks stayed the same.

To be fair have you looked at the average pvp lobby? Literally only two, maaaaaaaybe three, people make it out alive. Everyone else is fodder so if you're dying every raid to sweats you will be forced to use free kits.

I guess you can do a filler raid and just rush a security locker then extract stealthily, but when you *have* to farm the game is no fun.

Who cares, he looks best as a plain chicken, and you see him for 2 seconds every 5 or so rounds.

That's it? They acknowledged they needed to add more incentive to reset and they added variants to the set we already have? I was going to do the expedition regardless, but that's pathetic.

still cant believe the underlying issue with the stash value is that it prioritizes saving up shit and not using it until you lootgoblin to whatever the coin number is. even the retards at reddit said something like total value of items extracted would be better since it wouldnt be based on what is currently in your inventory and instead takes into account the total history of whatever value youve brought out of a raid.

different outfit than patchwork, but I guess they can just keep adding more colors, some outfits have like 6 colors

yea that's nice and all
still not expeditioning :)
>>
>expeditions will always be bragging rights thats why you get exclusive cosmetics
>expedition 2 arrives
>jk heres a variant for the same cosmetic
besides making this game super casual this is really bothering me
also 3 mil is nothing they inderectly buffed the ammount of cash you get through stella montis and now bird city that you could earn it fairly quick
didnt expect 10 mil but I think 5 mil is a decent ammount for most people and its kinda funny because they have chosen 5mil the first time and expected nobody to get that much but now they want everyone to get the 5 points? it seems they have no idea what to do with the game
>>

it said it added 2 toggles
those toggles better be a fucking halo and wings

I do appreciate that they told us earlier this time.

>>556384997
>but now they want everyone to get the 5 points
maybe it was elsewhere too, but reddit fucking exploded about how they werent able to get the 5 skill points that were meant for hardcore gamers
and how its unfair they have to hoard 5 mil and not play the game
instead of like, you know, getting more than 5mil??? fucking tards

that's the people they are catering too, they said
>the expedition and skill points are meant for hardcore players

>>556396754
>but if you fill queue, then you're getting retarded, compared to trio streamers than run into full kits
Yeah, I've been struggling with it. Most of the people in solo queues are free kitting even when I'm kitted, and they send themselves to their deaths or solo. I'm not going to blame other people for every run; I need to have accountability for when I fuck up too, but it doesn't feel like a consistent experience.
>>556396861
Almost all of my experiences with randoms have been negative. Some have been okay, but it's not like I can play with those people all the time. I've gotten maybe two dudes that are alright in all my time playing since launch. I'm cordial, prepare well, and am competent enough of a player to survive and support my team. Yet, it's hard when even some of the okay players don't want to get out of their Discord calls...and that happens all the time. It boggles my mind how these duo players who refuse to comm even open their parties. So, even people with mics who can sort of aim are just there to use you as a backup for if they fuck up, and immediately leave.
>>556397659

Just run night stella montis and loot goblin assembly and medical. Takes like 10 minutes max but you make out with 90k EZ. There's also a bunch of other good areas around the map that no one checks like lobby containers, but those are further apart so you should only make that part of your route.

I find bastions and bombardiers are the only ones that consistently drop cells/cores. Rocketeers and Leapers have a good chance of only dropping 1 for some reason. Certainly not worth the wolfpack or two to kill it.

You have to understand that whenever somebody talks about how developers balance the game for streamers and nolifers and ignore casual players like themselves it's most likely a complete shitter in the bottom 10% of the playerbase. They call themselves the silent majority even though they're loud as fuck. The uncomfortable truth is that if you like the game, you'll naturally play it a lot, and if you do something a lot you will naturally improve at it. So those casuals who cannot compete and cannot improve and whine instead actually just don't like the game that much. This is why we distinguish casuals and normal(non-nolifing) invested players, and this is why every online game that aims to be casual sucks ass. That streamer is not wrong in the sense that the game shouldn't exclusively cater to top 1% of the playerbase, but there's also the other extreme - just ask the Diablo 4 dev team how the whole "maintaining a live service game off of casuals who don't even like the genre" thing is working out for them.
That said, Embark doesn't seem to listen to anyone so this is a pointless mental exercise.

Don't worry about it too much anon, next year after your seventh expedition you'll be able to repair your jupitor one time for only 2 ma and 2 gp if you aren't already playing GTA 6 or don't use the repair kits paid for by real money or use the mythical jupitor that doesn't need repairs or ammo but cannot be put in your stash.

Consecutive

Buffs:
5%10% XP boost
6%12% Scrappy materials boost
60%70% Repair value increase

>XP doesn't offer anything for hitting 75 if you've already done it
>Scrappy being full and not claimed even a couple times completely negates the materials boost
>Even 100% repair value increase is negligable to scrapping and recycle crafting a new one
So be at the mercy of nerfed drop rates for BPs and competing against cheating chinamen farmers from their government prisons to gain the ability to craft items again so junk can even be useful again to loot or claim from scrappy?
Blueprints are the only things that give the junk you loot value as consumed materials, if you don't have wolfpak/deadline there's no reason to gather oil or things that break down into oil for example but are thrown away for convenience to gather bulk mats for crafting expensive weapons that will be farmed off of you by cheaters.

>>556407339
You can like a game but not have much time to play it. Most people have jobs, kids, other hobbies, etc. that they can't dedicate 8 hours a day to Arc. My friend works night shift and has a fucked up schedule, so when he gets home it's lights out. He wakes up in the afternoon and cooks/eats, does some light chores, and has maybe 1 hour of gaming before it's off to work again. Even people on a regular 8-5 can be pressed for gayman time.

>1 hour commute home
>1 hour for gym
>1 hour to eat and do the dishes
That gives you like 1-2 hours for gaming if you don't do anything else. Realistically most adults only have time to play vidya on the weekend so Embark is right now to listen to no lifers.

>>556409849
There you fucking go, exactly what I was talking about. If you only can play for 3-4 hours every week maybe the game shouldn't be tailor made for you and devs' attention would be better spent addressing concerns of actually invested players? Or perhaps your opinion just straight up doesn't matter because you barely play and therefore don't understand the game all that well? You can't put the time in, that's fine, but why should you take precedence over those who do?
>>
>>556409849
if you are "stuck using white weapons", you are just dogshit at the game, and at video games in general, full stop. developers need not cater to dogshit players, otherwise there is no point to the "be careful and extract safely" game. play helldivers or deeprock if you dislike the idea and consequences of losing items to other players who kill you. stop pretending this game is comparable to tarkov. it isn't. it's already casual as hell.

the bleating sheep smoothbrain pure-PVE player is very similar to the rat nigger rabid KOS smoothbrain

neither "thinks" about the game, they just see and react - in the case of the PVE player, they see a container or loot room, they interact with it regardless of what is happening around them (the same can be seen on large arc corpses)

in the case of the KOS player, they see another player they tunnelvision and click regardless of what else is happening around them

neither shows any sign of situational awareness whatsoever, it's rather fascinating how both extremes result in a similar outcome

Just got out of bird city chungartha where one guy blasted 3 people with a shotgun and killed 2
I broke his shield but he ran off
2 other guys come up and we make a posse to hunt him down

You can't get the skill points from the first unless you actually did the first. It's for people that couldn't hit the $5m and only got like 3 points or whatever, now they can push hard to "catch up"

>>556424415
I really have no problem with people being drones because the game effectively seperates chillers and fighters, everyone gets what they want. What I have a problem with is the same problem I invariably have with any pvp focused game which is that it gets infested with chinese RMTers or 12 year olds buying cheats for $10 a pop. I don't even care about winning, I just like a good competitive game. But I got ~500hr or so of good pvp out of Arc before it's gotten out of hand so could be worse I guess.

For the past three months, I have been a ghost in ARC Raiders. My rules were simple and strict: get in, grab the loot, and get out without ever firing a single shot at another player. While everyone else treats the game like a high-octane battle royale, I treat it like a survival horror stealth simulator. I’ve extracted Tempest blueprints while squads were gunning each other down fifty meters away, slipping through the shadows like a phantom. I don't kill; I survive. That was my identity.

But today, the philosophy of the pacifist finally shattered. I was on a solo run, deep in Buried City, my inventory had a stack of exodus modules and complex gunparts that I desperately needed for weapon upgrades. I had spent twenty minutes crawling through buildings, heart pounding, avoiding every engagement. I was practically holding my breath in real life, my finger nowhere near the trigger.

That’s when he showed up.

He wasn't a skilled player. He was loud, clumsy, and shooting at anything that moved. He spotted me crouching behind a rusted set of barrels and just started spraying. Usually, this is where I throw a smoke grenade and vanish, or rotate to a new cover. I tried. I really did. I voiced over the proximity chat, shouting, "I'm friendly! Just leaving!" But he didn't care. He pursued me with a mindless aggression that felt less like a tactical decision and more like pure malice. He winged me, taking my health down to critical, and cornered me with no exit route.

Something in me just... snapped. It wasn't fear; it was annoyance. It was the sheer unfairness of his incompetence threatening my perfect run. My crosshair, usually pointed at the ground or at loot containers, snapped to his head. I didn't think. I didn't plan. I just held down the left mouse button. The recoil kicked, the muzzle flashed, and in less than two seconds, he was gone. Just another knocked raider on the ground. The metro arrived a moment later, and I boarded it alone, the silence deafening.

arc raiders without the possibility of losing loot to other players that shoot you, is not arc raiders
literally fucking kill yourself if you seriously do not understand this. the extract points make a shit ton of noise specifically to alerts other players to the fact that you are extracting. shooting the braindead robots has he same effect. if there is no risk, your rewards are meaningless. you are literally asking for a second, completely different game instead of just playing another one in the first place.
and what if they did make a pve mode? are you just supposed to fuck off to your daycare and be able to gear up and then come back to the real game and compete with people who didn't need their hand held? are you fucking kidding? they already extended you retards an olive branch with ABMM, just be grateful for that, and accept that you will lose sometimes.

>>
>>556429467
Okay, think about it this way: If you just want to run free kits and murder people, and you don't care about any of the gigantic list of other goals in the game, it's a great game!

I'm out here soloing 80k in trials, I love that part of the game. But if I want to do that, I can't shoot anyone for days.

You're also much more likely to gain weapons, gear, components, quests, etc, by completely avoiding PVP, not just because of the behavior based matchmaking, but because your odds of getting 5th partied after you wiped 3 squads just means you're NEVER incentivized to PvP to complete ANY goal in the game, except purely to enjoy the deeply flawed PVP (free kits pushing with no care for their lives, hiding to ambush, third person perspective meaning you can wait behind cover with no exposure).

The only reason to PVP is to PVP, and even that is mostly chaos and getting shot in the back by the 17th team to arrive.

I get liking it, but you have to understand my legitimate criticisms. It's fine if one of us likes it and the other doesn't, or thinks it's stupid, but don't pretend these aren't real issues.

PvPfags already have proper complaints for combat balance, fucked up initiative in solo/duo combat and investment/return ratios on the loot and even trials.
These complaints have nothing in common with "U LE BROWN FOR DOING PVP" and the retards wishing a complete segregation from the systems.
I would understand if the common consensus was "PvE is a means to an end in a badly balanced PvPvE environment", but it never is the main point of PvEtard posts here.
>>
>>556429927
If PvE ever happens I'm betting my balls that the retarded majority will push for the same braindead shit as "BUH MUH ENEMOO ARE BOOLETSPOONGES IF THEY ARE NOT ONESHOT" until every gameplay mechanic is stripped away and condensed into holding lmb and pressing e on containers.

I can see why you don't like it though, you don't believe it's possible to adapt to high intensity adverse situations so you just avoid them entirely. That's reasonable, I guess. But I DO like figuring out how to win no matter what. Arc also happens to be a really fun game to do that in.

It's fun to be a nuisance sniper. Especially with the hairpin, you'll draw arc towards your position but they won't know where you are, and will attack anyone they see

You are a retarded nigger and this is a false dichotomy. It's not a pvp game and it's not a pve game, it's a pvpve game. Pve is braindead because it's meant to serve as a compliment to pvp. Explaining further would be counter productive because you're clearly looking for a different kind of game than the one you paid $40 for.

You don't start with a pistol. Maybe you should play more than 5 matches before offering an opinion. Or just keep playing, if you don't shoot anyone then you'll get put in the carebear lobbies because you suck so much.

See I’m Irish, living in North America which gives me a foot in both camps.

If I heard a British accent I’d probably betray them because their people betrayed mine for 700 years. I’d do it for fun, not because of a grudge.

So a POC betrays me on North Americans servers, I don’t see it as a character trait. But rather I relate to why they’d do it. People who sound like me screwed over their people for centuries. They don’t owe me anything.

If their pretend Betrayal makes them feel an iota of justice for what people like me did to their ancestors then they can have it.

It’s not an indication about their race. It’s an indication about the history that weighs on their shoulders.

Why am I happy about not playing the game? I'm glad the devs caved to reddit.

that's a pretty funny freudian slip, but I agree, that guy probably did post his chungus clip for validation from his fellow faggots considering he has 200 hours in the game and has only knocked 4 raiders. personally I don't do that, but I'm sure after playing 200 hours of box opening simulator, he was a bit bored.

You're not supposed to be in Chungartha
The original plan was that was the "retard bot" lobbies if you do really bad, like fortnite has
But Chungartha is the consequence of a friendly playerbase that doesn't want to PvP anyway, so when you do shoot someone you get almost immediately put into "normal" lobbies
Just a theory though

If I do my job against the queen/matriarch and I'm unable to grab a core afterwards, I just ask in prox chat if anyone can spare me a few, and 4 out of 5 times some dude drops me 1-2 with a "here you go, bro :)" so maybe you should try asking first. I'm playing in the Asian chungartha lobbies if thats relevant.

They honestly need to remove safepockets from naked raiders and just implement it for mk1 augments and up.
>>
>>556437005
>got shot at 3 times by random retards in a matriarch lobby
That's just how matriach is dude. There are plenty of people who tank their ABMM to get down into chungartha, only to rat the most profitable modifier to get back once their done.
>>
>>556469710
That's why I always travel and extract with a group when doing matriarch.
>>
>>556469710
It's so easy to make money in this game that anyone who goes through all that for 3 $13k cores in a safe pocket is retarded. You can spend 4 minutes on a night raid with a full inventory over $100k.
>>
>>556465460
they get really mad when you disassemble your stuff, so they must not be able to make most of it themselves. they also thought the higher tier guns were good until recently
>>
>>556470197
>they also thought the higher tier guns were good until recently
anon, that's a pvetard's take, they are still clenching their bettinas
pvpers are all using toro/venny/anvil/stitcher with survivor mediums and loads of trigger nades and vita sprays if they have the bps
You need to actually have workbenches for those kits.
>>
>>556470407
they literally do not craft and only use what they pick up
they don't even open containers usually
>>
>>556469229
how much is the first place for you? mine (DD2) was 50k
>>
>>556470537
i can't take you seriously if you take the twitch nigger monkeys for your main benchmark
pvpers also do the pve part, don't be delulu
you only don't loot if you win fights frequently and are taking out inventories of guns because they are the most value efficient thing

i trio pvp a lot, and i usually still farm for cpus alongside even if i win a lot because the trigger spam is real and you run dry quick on that specific material
>>
>>556470537
LOL PvEtards talk about PvPers like some deranged boogeyman
>>
>>556469967
Space dollars are worthless, I'm specifically talking about the weapons you harvest off the chungarthans. Killing a guy with an Equalizer is worth of a ton in material, remember those guns take 18 gun parts to craft.
>>
>>556470951
i genuinely think they never experienced any actual pvp in this game projecting the single time they got shot in the back by a lvl1 freekitter
literally fucking clueless
>>
>>556470537
if that was true it'd be extremely impressive
>>
>>556470965
you guys really are poor
>>
>>556470965
i have over 200 bobcats on a mule account, the fuck you mean "gunparts are expensive"?
>>
>>556472047
You need 72 (7.2 stacks) of simple gun parts to craft a legendary weapon (to meet the complex gunpart requirement). Those guns are extremely expensive to make retard, you can only get 10 simple from Celeste a day, and 3 l/m/h gun parts, which is only 1.3 complex gun parts, on top of that. You also need complex to repair it. Maintaining those guns is expensive.

Also 200 bobcats is a waste, that gun is dogshit and get mogged by a sticher with even a green extended mag
>>
>>556472601
>bobcats
They are not for combat, they are for value/attachment storage.
>he crafts complex gunparts
That's all i needed to hear.
>>
>>556472601
I had too many gunparts for a while poorfag. I started giving equalizers and shit away to make space
>>
>>556470706
I'm on DD1 and the #1 slot is way above me. I just got done taking my 10k Hornets to 14k, which I only got with a couple lucky Wolfpacks at the end.
>>
>>556472601
I have never used gun parts to make complex gun parts. Those things are everywhere and aren't used for anything else. I have 4 stacks just rotting for when I need to repair. Every other that comes in is just sold. If you run Queen/Matriarch and use Legendary weapons, your ammo and repair costs are easily covered if you loot one leg + breach 2 harvester panels. Everything on top of that is profit. Plus, it's fun.
>>
>>556469229
probably near the bottom. everyone is still sniping everything out of the sky in my lobbies and all the big ground arc are dead
>>

>>556473024
>Those things are everywhere and aren't used for anything else. I have 4 stacks just rotting for when I need to repair.
I had 10 stacks of complex gun parts before I started farming queen/matriach for fun, now I only have 2 stacks left.

huh i think i got dumped into a french server no one would respond to me and when i heard to people talking it sounded french

that happens sometimes if your server is set to auto

Thought I was finally ready to become “that guy.”

You know the one. The player who stops being friendly, stops hesitating, and just accepts that Arc Raiders is a ruthless ladder climb.

Loaded in today fully committed.
Good gear. Solid ammo. Extraction route planned.
Inner monologue on repeat: “No mercy. It’s part of the game.”

Then I hear footsteps.

Perfect setup. I crouch behind some scrap, peek the corner, and there he is, another raider, breaching for loot, completely clueless.

Easy kill.

I aim down sights.
Finger hovering.
This is the moment I’ve been hyping myself up for.

And then he turns around.

Not scared. Not aggressive. Just… looking at me. Like, “oh hey, another human trying to survive this mess.”

Suddenly he didn’t look like loot anymore.
He looked like a dude who also spent 20 minutes dodging Arc's and praying for a blueprint.

And I froze.

All that tough talk about becoming a cold-blooded PvP monster? Gone.
Couldn’t pull the trigger.

We awkwardly stared at each other, did the universal flashlight wiggle of peace, and went our separate ways.

Turns out I’m emotionally built for co-op, not betrayal.

Tomorrow though… tomorrow I swear I’ll do it.

Probably.

With Embark making the Expedition easier than ever, what's their plan by the time we reach the end of the year? If it's in 2 month cycles, by the time we're in October, we'll have had 5 expeditions. Following the pattern, that's:
>60 storage space
>25 extra skill points
>25% XP boost
>30% Scrappy materials boost
>100% Repair value increase
They better work on some more interesting rewards now while they've still got time.
>>
>>556474870
There are no ladder, loot and kills does not matter.
>>
>>556475790
im pretty sure the exp scrappy and repair bonus are capped at 3 expeditions
>>
>>556477028
I don't play to win, just for the sheer love of friendliness.

Holy kino it was like a scripted encounter

White people are some of the worst rats/pvpers in-game. It's easy to point to content creators like Myth as a counter-example, but I can't count how many times I've been ratted by dickheada named some variation of John Raider or AustismusMaximus with the whitest city boy voices I've ever heard.
Unironically the ones I've never been killed by are South Americans. I've had dudes from Chile and Paraguay drop me wolfpack BPs out of the kindness of their hearts. Easy to vibe with too despite their broken english.
>>
>>556471398
Good pvpers dont need to loot since they get infinite guns and ammo and heals from bodies. Look at the average tfue match where he brings back vens, bobbies, etc.. The ones looting are the shitters who get killed often enough they can't maintain a good load out and/or unironically succumb to gear fear.

>go at night
>naked
>lobby is friendly because GBMM
>even if not idgaf I'm naked I'll just go again
>run through security breaches: santa maria - red tower - next to Arbusto pharmacy
>I need either 3 wolfpacks or 2 wolfpacks + gun/explosives, or 1 WP plus enough explosives/ammo
>not difficult to get from 3-4 breaches and weapon cases next to them
>even if not idgaf I'm naked I'll just go again
>did all ARC-related trials this way back when I used to do trials
Matchmaking shenanigans have trivialized this game to an unimaginable degree and it's only going to get worse as people come up with ways to abuse them. This game's saving grace is giga-casuals who are too dumb to notice.

No way, I swear this expedition shit is getting on my nerves, tarkov got rid of wipes but I genuinely hate arcs system the mindless credit grind even with 3 million is dumb.

Tarkov end wipes were “okay boys use all your toys your gonna lose them next week” in arc it’s mostly do care bear lobbies for a measly 1% perk bonus and 12 stash spaces, I like this game but I genuinely only like PvP in squads Solo PvP is ass and if you do PvP it’s just warzone
>>
>>556488530
It’s gonna depend on how much people actually do it, I’m predicting less do it even with it being cheaper the blueprint shit is still major
