FUUUUUUCK I almost had such a good haul there. No idea where they spawned but they fucking roamed all the way to me after like 10 minutes in raid. I thought it was a squad coming to loot cinema until I heard a voice line. Very cool "oh shit" moment kek.

...guys...lets get it together here, cmon

ok, this arena patch seems terrible
RPDN is abhorrent with PS, assault rifles don't give tokens so there's a good reason to not touch them at all, so scouts are an even stronger godclass as if there wasn't enough scoutfaggotry already
the new audio is flat out awful and incredibly disturbing, and there was no need for hit direction markers as ttk is miniscule in this game

yet to test the fort changes, gonna check it out now

Just managed to hit someone 11 times with 5.45 BS without killing them AND getting killed by them in return. Might as well kill myself.

>>581603837
didn't get to check much because I got placed into a team with two guys who didn't connect and two lobotomized niggers
only change I spotted is that you can camp the bottom spawn from b better now, as if that's a good way to balance the map

>hopped back on seasonal a good couple of dates after the leagues update
>like 4-5 days
>pretty much the only quest I've completed is the 3 kills on Labs for lightkeeper for 55k exp and a few daily quests, played like maybe 6 raids on Labs
>comfortably sitting at top 9 with 110k exp and one day until rank update
Kinda dogshit system honestly, makes no sense for me to play seasonal right now because I'm effectively wasting exp that could be used in the next rank.

>>581605017
I'm 13th with 885k xp, top25 in my pool is at 360k xp. Reckon you'll get placed into a far better group next week.
I wonder what kind of system they use to place players in the next rank, simply by random, putting the sweats from other pools into same pools, or requiring you to complete one raid again and then placing you somewhat cronologically into pools? If the latest, then starting one day late into the week would be the gamer move to get into a group with players who don't play every day.
It's a pretty shit and lazy system, yeah, but could be worse.

>>581605017
I'm playing seasonal but not paying attention to the achievements/ranks/tasks at all. I haven't really done any kord breach tasks. I just use pvpS as a way to run goofy kits and dick around without thinking about permanent stats.

>>581607490
>I'm 13th with 885k xp, top25 in my pool is at 360k xp.
Interesting, my top 25 is only 18k exp and top 1 in my group is 384k

Adding the civilian carbine versions of the RSh-12 would be a good idea, I think.
Adds a little more variety to the weapons scavs spawn with, and one more weapon using 12.7x55mm and one using 9x39mm.

All of these Arena anecdotes make me think that this game would have the "toxicity" reputation of LoL or CS if it were easier to start and continue conversations with people out-of-game. I would absolutely be calling the people that kill me niggers if I could just DM them or leave a profile message instead of having to send a friend request and hoping they accept before I get over it or forget why I even sent it.

>>581692430
It's the same in the main game, I'm actually surprised how little hatemail I get in Tarkov.

Safes. I guess run Factory over and over or scav into noob GZ and check the four safes on there.

the camo baseball cap would've been good if it wasn't fucking backwards. i don't understand why they won't allow us to wear such things front/backwards.

>>581707540
i actually didn't mind it being backwards since there isn't a lot of cool backwards caps but yeah they should've released a front facing one as well to go along with it

I really hope they use it as an excuse to recycle them in the future and give us forward facing versions. The major head trauma one being backwards is also absolutely fucking retarded.

I really hope a game comes out and kills this game

It's not like Tarkov, and especially Arena, don't attract that type of person but the majority of my interactions in Tarkov are generally either neutral or positive. Arena, however, is filled with genuine schizophrenics and complete cunts. One of my favorites is when they call me a nigger thinking it's going to offend me so after I say it back to them they just don't know what the fuck to do. Usually it just sends them into blind anger where they shout random shit at you.
Sometimes you'll get people adding you to talk shit, but it's really rare. I had this guy add me to sperg at me, but I've never had a gem like this since. I wish he'd kept going but I think he cooled off by the time I dropped the "lol" trying to piss him off some more.

It helps when you're good at the game. I'm not Arena's biggest fan anymore, though. The balance and general gameplay has been fucked so hard that I don't enjoy it all that much past the 1-3 games it generally takes me to finish my dailies.

Even when you succeed in this game, you end up losing. Like why the fuck were there so many fucking scavs? It was beyond ridiculous, the hallways were so full of their corpses that the corpse pile rose to the fucking ceiling. Had the best possible kit with me too, cl 6 armor plates and all, and on top of all that, 5 PMCs worth of big boy gear and ammo.

I'm curious if the gun is fun, but jesus christ if there was ever a reason to use a middle barrel. Gonna try it with the long one because of the MOA difference, but I doubt it'll matter at fairly close range anyway.

>>581746209
It's technically only probably better because you can run more MAI AP out of it than you could with the mutant, but the mutant even with mostly BP is still very strong. I think the 104 has the best stats out of the base AK pattern rifles, but is probably edged out by the 704 overall.

i actually just run the ak-104 stock with only a sight. i find it to be better than the mutant with mai ap since you can actually control the gun due to it's lower rpm.

How do you get decent 5.56? I'm rolling in good 5.45 and can even find good 7.62x51 or .300 just from scavving but 5.56 is rare as fuck.
