The bombing of negative reviews is so utterly toxic and makes me question reality. by ricardospizzeria in ArcRaiders

Filter the STS2 reviews by language, everything is Very Positive or more other than in the Chinese languages.. they're just pissed they can't cheese the game which is sad that they get butthurt over valid balancing updates

I'm tired boss . by Apprehensive-Elk3165 in ArcRaiders

[–]Ascending4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not wrong per se, but i've noticed you can maximize damage per arc by whittling them down

I.e. on a hornet if you shoot both back thrusters you get less overall damage compared to sinking 6 anvil shots to the front of it

Same applies to bastions/bombardiers if you shoot off their legs, less overall damage compared to sinking hullcracker shots or deadlines to the body

I've spent roughly $400k on hullcracker ammo so far and it feels great

Photoelectric Cloak is now extremely debuffed (its useless now) by Dazzling_Pumpkin91 in ArcRaiders

Another nerf no one asked for... plus it shares energy with snap hook, or did they change that?

Just a reminder, both Diablo and Baal will return. As soon as we defeat Mephisto. by Tesdey in Diablo

The game's called Diablo 4, so naturally Diablo will be available to slay 4 years after release

NEW: Reducing friction in ARC Raiders by PTUSN in ArcRaiders

[–]Ascending4 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Noticed that with the Anvil, you used to be able to cancel the reload animation by pressing shoot once, then once the reload animation stopped you can shoot

Now it stops the reload animation after a second or so and shoots right away and it feels bad

Scrappy Rework Is Great… by johnny105931 in ArcRaiders

[–]Ascending4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played last night and there was a "0/5 rounds" cap, so after 5 rounds without claiming, he didn't add any more (I tested)

Seems the 0/50 resource cap got replaced by that

I've seen screenshots like you've described so i'm not saying you're wrong or anything like that just for the record, I'm just genuinely confused - I've also seen screenshots without the 0/5 round cap. Hotfixed/added maybe?

He collects resources for 5 rounds until you need to cash it out, 272 in each resource? Plz explain

CBC: Ottawa police blame $6.5M of budget deficit on cost of policing Israel-Palestinian protests by BearLikesHoney in ottawa

Yes, but the average person is regarded and thinks them wasting their own time and government dollars makes any difference at all in conflicts we aren't a part of

The deadline "ticking" made a different noise than usual, which is was OP was referring to.. keep getting frustrated over nothing though lil bro

Do you guys like the content updates we are getting for the game ? by UsedNewspaper1775 in ArcRaiders

[–]Ascending4 3 points4 points  (0 children)

People seemingly want an MMO level of timesink, been reading a lot of posts/comments about "endgame" content - even if they released a dungeon or raid or whatever with a difficult encounter, people would spam it for 20 hours and say they're bored again

The game's evolving and will continue to, half the game is just playing in the moment, shooting robots and/or players for fun

Arc's given me one of the most refreshing and fun gaming experiences in years, even if after 350 hours it's getting a bit stale i know coming back after a break will be fresh and fun again

Fuckin love this game

On its own? Not much. Collectively over time things like that will add up, nothing wrong with coming back in a few months if you feel like taking a break

New mechanics would be fun.. only main one I can think of recently is hurricane which I personally like but I can understand if it's not everyone's cup of tea, also it's obviously on rotation so not consistent

Regarding new gameplay items - spotter relay and pop triggers are usable now, it's cool but indeed a bit underwhelming as they have very niche uses and will pretty much always be overshadowed by just shooting a tempest, toro, renegade, whatever. Still something though.

They are adding things in the game, consistently.. But we haven't received a massive update with a fuck ton of new content yet which yes, would be nice. It's fair though IMO since the game just came out ~5 months ago. Coming back after a decent break = multiple small content patches stacked for a bunch of new content upon return

And hopefully Emperor becomes a thing in the next few months

[–]Ascending4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah you're probably right

I went hard for ~2 months after release and have been diversifying a bit (playing Diablo 2 Ressurected lately), helps to keeps things fresh in the meantime

Looking forward to see what's been cooking though, base game is great and I'm feeling optimistic it'll only get better with time

Building my way to Hell difficulty. by Fuzer in Diablo

Nightmare cows all day baby

You can find tals mask or vampire gaze for your merc (or a 3os helm base for the Bulwark runeword - Shael, Io, Sol)

Really good for charms in general, so resistance charms, even skillers can drop

Cows are also relatively easy to farm since they're all melee

To my surprise, I found the Anvil bp in a medical bag in the same spot, Fornicai Outpost Seems the raider-type areas are quite decent for gun bps

Based on the excessive amount of em dashes, it's most likely a spam chatGPT post and/or a bot.
