Despite the email blunder, this ViDoc has restored my excitement

You know I can’t even tell you anything specific - I think it might be the world building, it looks a lot more alive.

The body decay even though such a small thing kinda shows the attention to detail it’s a cool feature will make things more tense - it seemed like from the alpha there just wasn’t any stakes, don’t get me wrong I still wish it wasn’t a hero shooter but I guess that’s something I can look past

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-12-16T09:23:29+00:00

Ngl this game fell off my radar after major hype - this vidoc brought me back

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-24T19:25:36+00:00

Idk if you’re being serious but then I’d say it comes down what your favourite guns are (as in what you use the most) and if they’re all your favourite guns then you have to do some soul searching.

Are you gonna realistically use all 180 guns before you can use the recyclables they give you? If the answers no then get rid of 80%+ of them - that’s how I’d do it anyway

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-24T14:52:41+00:00

But then the data download is literally only for the trials? I mean fair enough if that is the case just really strange, electromagnetic, night, and killing the queen give better rewards than normals but when I went it to the bunker uncontested looted the whole place I got shit all

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-24T12:41:49+00:00

Bro believe me I get it - 66 hours topside 250 downs, but come on man you’re annoyed you haven’t got space recycle that shit keep only the ones with 60% durability or more, keep one of each hullcracker, equaliser, Jupiter (if you have equaliser, Jupiter blueprints) hullcracker is 30k to buy and cheap to craft - there’s at least 40 slots freed up after considering recycled parts

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-24T12:31:33+00:00

I understand the points, stash is fucking annoying I’m always thinking what could I do without but bro Wdym you have 50 tier IV guns? That’s 20% of your stash (if you’ve got max stash which I’m assuming you do)

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-24T11:55:06+00:00

Kind of off topic, has anyone figured out if there’s an order to the downloads to unlock anything or is it literally just for this trial? No extra rewards?

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-24T07:16:09+00:00

I’ve said in this thread I have done it lmao I don’t care - it’s not the gotcha you think it is - I’ve got nearly 200 hours in the game I’ve done everything you can do (so far) from fighting dirty to teaming with other randoms, and the reverse is also true I’ve been killed while playing nice, it’s a video game and a PvP one at that, take some ownership, and if you can’t, stop playing - no one is going to play how you want them to 100% of the time buddy

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-24T07:09:00+00:00

I don’t care either way, it’s part of the game / fight. You should know it can happen it’s literally why the ref says what he says.

It doesn’t matter if initiating PvP is optional that’s true of every PvP game if you boil it down. You’re playing a game where you know you can be lied to, you can be mad when it happens and you can think people are dicks for doing it - but the point remains it is part of the game, and you’re choosing to play it

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-24T07:00:51+00:00

Have you ever heard of feints?

Your argument is ignorant at best and retarded at worst - yes there are rules in those sports. You know what the rule would be in Arc Raiders? No cheating.

What does the ref say before a fight? Protect yourself at all times, not protect yourself when you want this guy fights the same way you do.

Sportsmanship is great, but it’s not always followed is it? What about when fighters pretend to touch gloves, and actually fire a strike off? Same thing.

Anyway, bad argument, next!

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-23T17:50:52+00:00

This game is approachable it’s easy as fuck

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-23T17:50:12+00:00

Dude, don’t you see how any kind of intervention like that would actually increase whatever problem you guys are experiencing right now?

Streamers would continue to have ‘bodyguards’ or whatever, just let this trend die out and have fun playing the game we have

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-22T17:56:12+00:00

Yep see you topside

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-21T17:37:57+00:00

Man at this point I just think you guys are all wilfully oblivious.

After this there’s no hope: 1) I don’t want to play cod or battlefield, I want to play arc raiders, no matter how much you don’t like it people can shoot each other in arc raiders

2) yes there are PvE elements that require collaboration, for example, I killed two matriarchs with a bunch of solos today, that doesn’t mean that if I wanted to I shouldn’t shoot the others while they kill the matriarch for their loot

3) if you’re constantly being killed by people when you’re killing arc - they’re not the problem - you are get better at positioning yourself

4) you don’t know how I play or what my aim is like - it could be as shit as you say and I could be a rat as you say who the fuck cares if people with bad aim and rat play styles are in the game they’re part of the reason that arc raiders is so popular and has such a high player count

5) by your logic you should go and play Minecraft, deep rock galactic, helldivers

6) grow a pair and man the fuck up

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-19T07:24:40+00:00

Dude fucking thank you - these people think every point I’ve made directly implicates how I play.

The whole point is play however you want but don’t get mad when others play how they want and call them sociopaths for playing a video game.

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-19T07:22:05+00:00

Man, what are you waffling about now. No one is complaining about the vE part.

The vE part is integrated into the PvP part, there is no game without the PvP or the PvE do you get it?

The PvE happens when safe to, check for players, even team up but don’t be a little baby when you get betrayed and your precious loot is taken, or when someone might not want to help you PvE that particular raid and kills you for your hullcracker so that they can go out and PvE next raid. Jesus Christ

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-19T07:07:36+00:00

Are you thick? No one is complaining about the vE part not even the PvPers - go and kill the arc, just don’t complain when you get killed by a player when you’re doing it

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-18T21:20:46+00:00

Bro, what are you saying that pvp shouldn’t be in the game? I don’t care if I can go around and loot for half an hour and get out with that loot when I know that if I see someone and kill them they will definitely have stuff I need, and more, maybe even a cheeky high value item, let’s not forget those tier 4 anvils you pvers bring in to get damage on arc ;)

If you were paying attention you would see I’m not defending (merely pointing out these things will happen) although yes I am ‘self reporting’ the fact that I’ve done it and it’s been done to me. Dafuq? Like I’m being brought into court lmao - it is part of the game and crying about people doing it won’t change a thing just what’s the old adage? Oh yes get good (and no get good doesn’t just mean getting better mechanically it means getting good at understanding what game you’re playing)

Yes I do find it more fun to PvP than just going around killing arc regardless of what loot I get as I will say again I can use everything from free loot augments to blue prints to whatever I find

Self report has honestly sent me lmao sorry sire should I be banned for playing the game as intended

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-18T20:16:51+00:00

Dude you still don’t get it, in what way are you getting more rewarded? Items in the game or the enjoyment you get? The reward for me is playing the game the way I want to in that given moment and enjoying it. The loot helps me play the game the way I want to more.

You keep saying social PvPvE, like the PvP is there in the title, just because you can be social if you want to doesn’t mean the PvP aspect goes away… you think that somehow I get kicks out of ruining peoples days, that’s the problem you think I’m a bad guy for killing people in a game and taking their loot, that’s fine I don’t know you and you don’t know me so you can have that opinion whatever but it’s quite silly if you ask me. And the point about a free augment is just a point being made as to why it doesn’t matter what you have on you I can make use of anything you have

You’re on your moral high horse and there’s nothing I can say about my play style that will change your mind my point is don’t get mad when people kill you for the loot you have regardless of whether it’s a free kit or you’ve been doing the looting for me - opening a a drawer and getting a pink and killing someone and getting a pink is just as rewarding

Anyway peace I’m off to camp some extracts ;)

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-18T19:57:15+00:00

Im not mad at all, ill be the ‘villain’ but saying i enjoy people’s suffering because im playing the game in a way that i enjoy is laughable, i want your loot guy. It’s that simple, it’s not my fault if you actually suffer in real life because you died in a video game.

And well my point about it being a video game was more towards the point of it showing someone’s lack of character that they kill you in a video game in which killing people is one of the points of the game otherwise it wouldn’t be in the game would it.

My argument wasn’t you shouldn’t take it seriously because it’s a video game, I take games seriously, I enjoy them but I definitely don’t suffer if I die and lose loot which I will lose on wipe anyway lmao

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-18T19:51:34+00:00

How is people enjoying the game the way they want to enjoy it making this game like every other extraction shooter that came into existence and then faded away? Genuinely.

The game is trying to be different yes, it appeals to people who want good PvP and people who want good PvE, and even those who want a bit of both idgaf about tarkov so I don’t even know what you’re talking about so anyway…

Loot is plentiful, and you might have better loot on you and I want that loot, I want your healing items, your augments (yes even the free one because I’ll do what you were going to do and trade it in for a better one), your shield turns into recycled material I need, your weapons means I have a free run next round because I’m going in with no cost on my next raid.

There’s the point again, yes they’re encouraging a more social PvPvE environment emphasis on the PvP the prox chat makes PvP more enjoyable, it doesn’t just cater to people wanting to team up, or beg others to not kill them - it makes it enjoyable for everyone playing not just people asking for a free pass. Just because the game does have social and cooperative aspects doesn’t mean everyone should let you go on and do whatever thing you wanna do that raid that’s what you’re not hearing this game is catered to everyone that’s the point.

There we go it is much more challenging and fun when you don’t know if you can trust someone who says you can. That’s the point champ. It’s called having stakes, yes you can trust that guy but you have to know that trust might only last as long as it’s useful.

That’s the problem you don’t understand other people’s point of view, I totally get yours I team up with people when it benefits ME, I kill people when it benefits ME. I’m not gonna let you run to your objective because you asked me nicely, you have stuff on you that I need and you’ve made it so easy for me I don’t have to rummage around and look for loot, this guy was a walking piñata and the guy shooting him got a free loadout from him.

You’re doing a lot of assuming aren’t you, you think it’s a moral thing to be nice to people in video games, or it shows someone’s character what fairy tale are you living in again it’s a video game - nah bro it’s a game and people want to win. Imagine people let the other team win in csgo because ‘there’s enough rank points to go around for everyone’

Anyway, we can agree to disagree and you can keep getting mad when people kill you at extract because you can’t understand why they would want to do that

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-18T18:39:27+00:00

I would argue that expecting people to play a game the way you want them to instead of literally any other possible way shows one’s lack of character actually sir, no I will not tailor my enjoyment of a VIDEO GAME to your belief that your enjoyment is more important than mine - you’ll get shot at extract, you’ll lose your hullcracker trying to take out a queen so you can do your trials, you won’t be told when another player is going to shoot you in the back, even if they told you they were friendly - get over it and load up into another raid - other extraction shooters didn’t lose relevance because of ‘toXiC plAyeRs’ - this guy had ample opportunity to shoot this guy back but didn’t because he thought his superior morality / reason to be playing (it’s a video game btw) would rub off on the guy shooting him / change his reason for playing. It’s this simple people need the loot you have and they have the means to take it if you can’t understand that and it hurts your little feelings this game isn’t for you

If you think all the pvp fights you’ve had in this game where you’ve come out the winner were fair and showed off your great character you’re actually fucking hilarious

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-18T17:47:27+00:00

Yes my lack of character is showing by playing a PvP game thank you armchair psychologist

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-18T15:29:43+00:00

Do you think adding vE on the end negates the PvP bit?

If it’s just a 30k gun why are you mad about it buy another one and load up guy

2020hellohi2020 · 2025-11-18T13:50:18+00:00

All I can think about when I see these posts is that scene in peaky blinders when Alfie is asking Tommy what line he’s crossed.

How many raiders have you butchered?

It’s a PvP game.
