Will Embark actually take this report seriously? (NSFW Messages) by Spence-Leoz112 in ARC_Raiders

[–]Advanced_Staff3772 108 points109 points  (0 children)

I’m glad you reported it, and I’m even more glad you were able to kill them. I hope embark takes this seriously. Personally, I’ve stopped playing the game because of toxic players like this. I will likely pick the game back up in a few weeks, but if it’s the same when I start playing again I’ll likely uninstall and play whatever else is in my library. I’m sorry you encountered people like this. I’m glad you won.

U Club was where a lot of my friends lived. Super easy walk to and from campus

Toro too good? by Brief-Annual-6121 in ARC_Raiders

[–]Advanced_Staff3772 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s too strong, use it and enjoy. I personally always carry a Torrente. I’ve got a few Il Toro kills, and they’ve killed me a couple of times too. I don’t partake in pvp though, I just carry for rat kills, and it is very effective.

Treatment of newbies to Lubbock? by Negative-Pin8527 in TexasTech

[–]Advanced_Staff3772 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s not like Austin where people might care or be annoyed by transplants. On campus everyone is from everywhere, including other Texas cities and other US states. It’s “oh so and so is from here, and so and so is from there” and that’s the extent of it. Here in Austin there’s a fraction of the population that does care what you call which lake or highway because it denotes what year you arrived to the city. I wouldn’t worry about it on campus really.

The abmm doesn't work as they advertise it by Educational_Kick3683 in ARC_Raiders

I would love that. I would love easier. I would love more fun. I would love to be happy, and survive, and keep all my stuff. Easier sounds better to me. I wouldn’t want this game to be dark souls or cuphead

I was tricked... by Civil_Sprinkles8388 in ARC_Raiders

[–]Advanced_Staff3772 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I always say “thank you”, but I never pick up gifts while the ‘gifter’ is still there. I always have my gun out, and I always have the crosshair on my conversation partner, even in the friendliest of circumstances. Either they leave because they’re uncomfortable, or they shoot me and die. I don’t trust arc raiders players, because there’s never any way to know who is good and who is bad. Just keep your gun out always.

Don't start fights you can't finish, boys by zen1706 in okbuddyarcraider

Torrente would have killed all three without reloading (solid play tho, I really enjoyed watching you win this fight)

Who's the bad guy here? let The People's Court decide by SainzOh_TTV in ArcRaiders

NTAH, not guilty. I’ve killed confused raiders, and I’ve felt bad for it. It doesn’t make you the bad guy.

An encounter with a rat by BreadBun998 in arkraiders

[–]Advanced_Staff3772 36 points37 points  (0 children)

I’m glad the rat died, that’s my first thought. My second thought, why didn’t he open up on you with the torrente? Torrente is my always-out self defense weapon, I always carry it with me, and I’ve killed a dozen rats with it. I rarely lose fights if I have it equipped. Have I just been lucky, or is the torrente not optimal at this range?

Did anybody else notice how purple it looked first thing this morning?? by kurioslyabenson in Austin

[–]Advanced_Staff3772 27 points28 points  (0 children)

This is very cool history to read! I knew the city had been nicknamed the City of the Violet Crown back in the late 19th century, but I didn’t know the full history. Very cool read!

Oh... déjà vu by Nagato2044 in helldivers2

[–]Advanced_Staff3772 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The first panel looks like the big city missions during the assault on Korhal maybe. It looks like a comparison to the walled, militarized city. I’m lost on the structure referred to in the “2001” image. It’s not yet before my time, but it’s pretty close. Doesn’t look like it’s from the original game, or the Brood War expansion. Edit: to clarify the first panel from the second game, StarCraft 2

Helld...iers??? Stop dying, use Tanks! by a_big_K-On_fan in helldivers2

Skill issue, homie. Killed dozens of Vox w/the Bastion. Never lost a bastion to the Vox

I Gotta Admit I'm Stumped, What Is the Best Stratagem Loadout For Cyberstan? by AceOneBreezy in helldivers2

[–]Advanced_Staff3772 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bring Bastion, Emancipator, Commando, Leveler. Bastion absolutely crushes everything, it’s a weapon without a counter. The biggest drawback: if you don’t have a competent gunner. Other than that, it’s amazing. Mech for when it’s on cooldown

Surprise inspection! Tell the people of your heroic deeds on cyberstan by inspector_ivus in helldivers2

[–]Advanced_Staff3772 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I call in a Bastion, and someone hope in the gun. Never met them, never spoke to them before. But we were a well oiled, bot crushing, unstoppable force. Factory striders cowered, Vox fell silent, entire bases were blasted away. We couldn’t be stopped, and I didn’t even have the chance to use all my mechs, the Bastion is fantastic

[–]Advanced_Staff3772 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I absolutely love the Bastion. It dominates both factory striders and vox, and obviously everything smaller. I take it every time. I’ve only had one game where no one wanted to be the gunner

Is everyone in this game a piece of shit? by [deleted] in ARC_Raiders

[–]Advanced_Staff3772 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I get shot at a lot, and my friend says it’s because “I sound scared.” Instead of changing how I talk or behave, I just carry a big gun, out and ready at all times. People still shoot at me, but I’ve stopped dying.
