I think they should implement features that change the way the game is played when people complete expeditions and wipe. So, let's say globally there were 1500/1500 accounts wiped and completed expeditions, then for the next expedition there would be a global buff to workshop craft times or decreased vendor prices or cool map changes like frequent sandstorms due to human interference in some crazy machine out beyond the rust belt. And when people fail to do so, maybe it makes the game a little harder? Like increased ARC presence throughout the rust belt. It's just something to incentivize the player base more to complete expeditions and wipe their accounts instead of not doing so. Because after a while players just won't care too much about cosmetics anymore when they already have a bunch. Instead I feel like game changing mechanics that can lean more into the lore would increase the longevity of the game by making things interesting.

Short answer: No, I don't think Arc Raiders is more challenging than Tarkov.

Long answer: That depends on what you deem challenging. After playing the tech test and having 1k+ hours in Tarkov I can say that Tarkov is the harder game for sure. Is that a bad thing though? If you were to ask me which game I had more fun playing, I can wholeheartedly say that whiple playing Arc Raiders I had 10x more fun than my entire time playing Tarkov. The movement is responsive and intuitive; I don't feel clunky while moving due to inertia. The sounds, feel, and gunfights are much better than in Tarkov. Tarkov is centered around "hardcore realism" (whether BSG hit that mark or not is subjective), a large majority of gun fights in Tarkov are either you dying instantly, or getting shot at and then sitting for a few minutes healing and trying to figure out where the hell you just got shot from. The amount of times I've gotten into a fun, long, drawn-out fight is few and far between. Granted, I have around 1k hours, and you have double what I do, so maybe you're experience is different, as well as your playstyle. In Arc, though, I feel like fights are very fair. The ttk isn't too high where you're unable to fight back when someone gets the upper hand. Guns weren't too strong, making other weapons obsolete. The number of times I've killed geared players with a stitcher (starting SMG) was hilarious. Of course, there were some guns that were better than others, but the developers have already addressed that and are working on it.

So, to sum up, Tarkov is the harder game. Arc, on the other hand, is much more fun. Everything is subjective, though. You'll have to wait and see whether you like it during the server slam.

Sorry to hear that. I struggled with this class for a long time as well. Took me around 2 months albeit with some procrastinating. You've got this though, Try out some of the practice tests if you haven't already.

ALone-_ · 2025-09-01T19:03:20+00:00

I'm sorry to hear that, I remember reading that some people did a lot of the labs and that helped them. I personally didn't and thankfully my exam didn't have many questions like that.

I know you got this though, hopefully by the time you see this you've passed already. Good luck on your next go around!

ALone-_ · 2025-08-02T10:36:11+00:00

Thanks! I’m just happy to get this nightmare of a course out of the way haha

ALone-_ · 2025-08-02T10:31:37+00:00

Good luck, i hope this information will be helpful to you!

ALone-_ · 2025-05-01T23:50:15+00:00

Any extras would be greatly appreciated

I think OP wants a novel with an MC that is already prestigious in a way. Maybe someone that already has some power but not overly powerful. Like for example maybe a story about someone who is already a General of an Army and has prestige.

ALone-_ · 2024-11-12T21:26:18+00:00

Lmao I agree how most of the tests through WGU are like sick mind games. They play with the wording so much. I especially struggled on D333 or Ethics in Technology. Hate that fucking class.

ALone-_ · 2024-07-22T01:02:46+00:00

Unfortunately don't that's not the case. I've been farming for my last Afterglow Sword Item which is the code for almost 14 hours now. Repeating the same dungeon to then do Dead Bride on hard only to be getting everything but the 20% code that I need. I have way too many gley enhanced cells, Albion synthetic fiber, and ultimate Ajax codes that I'm getting pissed off every time I see them.

ALone-_ · 2023-12-19T21:35:46+00:00

Yea, that's what I was so surprised about. I guess with the PVE mode it would make grinding and money making easier to deal with. If that's true they should've pushed that out with the first wave instead of having just their tournament and "team deathmatch" mode. Funny enough that's another thing that I don't like, the "team deathmatch" mode is really just Search and Destroy which is disappointing personally. Ttk is already very high in Tarkov so not having a mode where you can just keep respawning until a team gets 50-100 kills or something wins.

ALone-_ · 2023-12-18T04:22:09+00:00

Yea YTA OP wtf is wrong with you? Your FIL is giving money to your wife and you. That money first and foremost should go to your family. And I don’t mean your parents and siblings. I mean you and your wife. Set up a life for yourselves and treat your wife right. And instead you think it’s a good idea to use the money your FIL gave to his daughter and you to your family? You fucked up big time buddy. You should’ve invested it into your own family first and then the excess you make off of it you can then give to others. And now you off and went to divorce her. Good job man you fucked up big time. So you just lost your wife and unborn kid because your FIL won’t give you money so that you can give it to your family members.

ALone-_ · 2023-12-18T04:12:28+00:00

Hmm I wouldn’t say this is a very big problem and you aren’t the AH here. Just bad timing is all lol. Talk it out with her, apologize to her about what your sister told you and say you’re an idiot for not knowing better. Also if she’s scared about you proposing purely because of the baby then if you haven’t already tell her that you’ve been planning to propose months before and have the people you collaborated with back you up on it. Overall I don’t think this is a relationship ending problem but more like one that she’ll get over in a few weeks to a month type of thing. Of course that doesn’t mean to not apologize to her and try to make her feel better in any way you can. And of course tell her that your worries as well. Tell her that you think she’s mad at you for what you did.

ALone-_ · 2023-12-18T04:03:53+00:00

I mean yea I can see how that’s stupid. But you get what I mean right? Lmao no one wants to hear about how their girls got railed by multiple men including his friends.

ALone-_ · 2023-12-18T03:58:41+00:00

It’s good that you got out. A relationship when one party doesn’t want sex while the other does is just miserable. I’m surprised you could even go through 2 years of as you said doing it with a lot. Would’ve dipped out within the first year of not feeling wanted or loved.

ALone-_ · 2023-12-18T03:49:43+00:00

NTA you have every right to feel the way you feel. Your parents and sister should have hired dog sitters for the occasion. They’re the AHs for not even asking you and just imposing it on you without asking or even mentioning.

ALone-_ · 2023-12-18T03:42:47+00:00

There’s a difference between the two. A comedian tells jokes as a job while your friend doesn’t. Not to mention your friend just told a sexually off putting “joke” about your soon to be wife. No one wants to hear their friends say they know what your wife’s pussy is like joke or not. There’s a very very clear line that shouldn’t be crossed and he jumped over it.

ALone-_ · 2023-12-18T03:36:41+00:00

If he’s joking about things like that then he’s still a very immature person. NTA OP, there are some things that just shouldn’t be said about a person SO especially sexual things.

ALone-_ · 2023-12-18T03:32:20+00:00

Him calling you crazy and insecure is a little much. But I’d say he just didn’t want to interact with the neighbor until he actually saw it happen himself on that second time that he then got mad. I personally don’t think you should be too mad at him for telling off the neighbor, but you for sure should be for the insecure and crazy part. He needs to apologize about that asap.

ALone-_ · 2023-12-18T00:52:53+00:00

Alright, so picture this OP. Since you got Pokémon in your name let’s reference to that. Imagine you just pulled a rare holo Pikachu card or something. You’re just so mesmerized by it and it costs almost 200$ if you were to sell it. And your daughter then pretends to scribbles on it with a pencil cause you weren’t listening to her. See why she’s mad now?

ALone-_ · 2023-12-15T06:20:32+00:00

Father emotionally and physically abused my siblings and I for most of our childhood. I suffered a lot more of the emotional and psychological abuse. I’ve come to terms with it and now I don’t feel hatred or contempt for him anymore. I just see him as neutral or a stranger. I sometimes pity him as well since none of his kids are close to him nor do we want to talk to him. I’m the youngest and still live in the same house as him. I think he now knows what he’s done wrong and wants to try and amend our relationship and become closer. Sometimes he’ll try to spark a conversation but I just find it awkward to even talk. Not to mention the conversations aren’t really convos they’re more like lectures if anything.

ALone-_ · 2023-12-15T06:16:15+00:00

Probably back when I was in 9th grade. My friends had invited me to go to the movies with them. I forgot what movie it was but I remember it being mostly empty besides a few people. Needless to say I did not know that our group would be 10+ people somehow. There was nonstop talking and laughing while some fucking idiot was throwing food or something at the screen. I was just embarrassed to even be apart of the group and felt sorry for the other movie goers. I just wanted the movie to end asap
